Fate of the Immortals and Demons

This is like taking the college entrance exam. You are obviously qualified for admission, but you still insist on relying on your own abilities to pass the exam.

However, for Ding Yubai, this is nothing at all?

As long as it can improve your cultivation strength, everything is worth giving it a try!

"Brother Yubai, good morning!"

As Ding Yubai walked to the area where the special training class was located, Ye Wuji, Ding Yubai's deskmate in the special training class, was wearing a school uniform and greeted him very friendly.

Since it is a special training class of the Holy Academy, it is naturally located at the front row of the playground, in the most conspicuous position, right next to the flag-raising platform.

Ding Yubai just smiled and nodded, standing side by side with him, facing the flag-raising podium about ten feet away in front.

Since it is the opening ceremony, even the students in the special training class must wear uniform and wear the school uniform issued by the college.

"School starts so soon, and there will be a tutor teaching next. But I can still tutor with him."

Qingtai, who was standing side by side, glanced at Ding Yubai, but was thinking secretly in his heart.

Ding Yubai seemed to be aware of Qingtai's gaze, and immediately used his magic consciousness to transmit a message without making a sound:

"Qingtai, I've decided to participate in the freshman tryouts."

"Ah! What?"

Hearing Mo Hei's frank confession, Qing Tai was immediately shocked and cried out in surprise.

"Qingtai, what's wrong with you? Why are you yelling?"

Xiyue, who was standing side by side with him, frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.

"not me……"

Qingtai was so anxious that he didn't know what to say. Due to his low cultivation level, he couldn't transmit sound through his mind like Ding Yubai.

"Qingtai, don't worry. The reason I told you this in advance is to let you know that I can definitely enter the special training class with my own strength. Moreover, this can also be considered an experience, which will definitely help improve my cultivation strength."

Ding Yubai was full of confidence and comforted Qingtai, who was anxious and wanted to persuade him.

"But……"

Just as Qingtai uttered these two words in his heart, he was interrupted by Ding Yubai's magic thoughts and spiritual consciousness.

"There's nothing to worry about. Just like the law of natural selection, if you don't advance, you will retreat. I know the competitive risks I will face. If I can't even take first place in the freshman selection, how can I face the Netherworld invading the human world in three years? So Qingtai, please don't worry, and don't try to persuade me."

Ding Yubai has obviously made up his mind. In order to force himself to improve his cultivation strength as quickly as possible, he has really reached the point of using every possible means.

"Is it really worth it? To improve our strength at any cost! Even if the slightest mistake means missing out on a spot in the special training class?"

After spending nearly a month together, Qingtai had already realized that Ding Yubai was a person who was extremely obsessed with cultivation.

He can simply be described as a cultivation maniac.

"Perhaps, the invasion of the Netherworld into the human world three years later will truly make him feel that it is imminent, and the only way to stop it more effectively is to improve his strength."

On second thought, Qingtai just couldn't think about it anymore, just as Ding Yubai said, the underworld invaded the human world.

There were only three years left, which really made Ding Yubai very worried.

"Unfortunately, I think no one in the entire Netherworld can stop this. It's already a done deal. Furthermore, I've heard rumors within my clan that the Netherworld is involved."

Qingtai thought so, and at the same time, it was not easy to persuade Ding Yubai anymore, so he could only support him silently.

"Since I am powerless to stop or change the Netherworld's invasion of the human world in three years, I can only do my best to improve my cultivation as much as possible within these three years."

Ding Yubai had some insight into Qingtai's thoughts and ideas through close-range detection of his evil thoughts and spiritual consciousness.

At the same time, it also deepened Ding Yubai's determination to become stronger.

As time passed, the sky was already bright. However, the sky in this underworld seemed to be born in a hazy state, always shrouded in it. Even in the morning, it gave people a feeling of dusk.

Even so, teachers and students have arrived to attend the opening ceremony.

The students who registered for the freshman selection, after paying a considerable registration fee, have also gathered in an orderly manner on the other side of the playground to attend the opening ceremony of the Holy Academy.

"Dear students, the opening ceremony of the second half of the semester at Holy Academy has officially begun. The flag-raising ceremony will now begin."

As the head of the academy, Yue Yinhua was wearing a blue dress and looked very dignified and elegant.

Yue Yinhua, standing gracefully on the flag-raising podium, officially began to preside over the opening ceremony, surrounded by the elders and tutors of the Holy Academy.

This also brought Ding Yubai back from his thoughts. As the flag-raising ceremony began, three flags were seen rising slowly.

Of these three flags, the one in the middle was the border flag of the Netherworld. It was triangular in shape, and the entire flag was gray and misty, just like the color of the sky and earth in this Netherworld.

On the left side is the flag of the Pus Empire, which is square in shape. The entire flag is pitch black, with only a majestic beast outlined with a golden marker. It looks like a cow but has a fish tail, and its shape is very strange.

Ding Yubai discovered that this beast was a sacred beast of the Pus Empire, named Mu Kun. It bore some resemblance to the Si Kun he had seen after being introduced to him by Elder Gao.

The flag on the right is the school flag of Holy College. It is rectangular and flutters in the wind. The whole flag looks like a landscape painting, and the unique campus buildings of Holy College are printed on the flag.

"The darkness is dark, only when the darkness is broken can light be seen. Blood rains down. The Holy Path is ahead, and the Jade Society leads the way, rushing towards a new era!"

After the song was sung, it was discovered that this song was the school song of the Holy Academy, and the Yu mentioned in the song was speculated to be a metaphor for a mysterious figure, Li, the founder of the Holy Academy.

However, according to Ding Yubai's knowledge, the founder of this Holy Academy, Li, is an extremely mysterious woman.

The Holy Academy was founded nearly ten million years ago.

As a result, only the character "Li" is recorded for the founder, and it is only known that she is a woman.

Apart from this, there is no way to find out about this woman's life, deeds, or appearance. They are completely lost in the dust of history.

As Ding Yubai was eager to become stronger, he would not delve too deeply into these matters. He just knew a little about them out of curiosity.

With the end of the flag-raising ceremony, President Yue gave an opening speech, and the Vice President gave a speech.

The content of his speech roughly explained the past and present of the Holy Academy, the famous figures and school rules of the Holy Academy, as well as the current enrollment-related information.

According to Ding Yubai's investigation, this vice president who is over fifty years old is named Xu Daofu. He is a tall old man with silver hair and a white beard.

A pair of emerald blue pupils radiated wisdom, and there was a faint blue demonic mark on each cheek.

Apart from that, he is no different from ordinary people.

It was rumored that his cultivation was profound. Aside from a few of the Grand Elders, he was probably second only to Dean Yue in the entire Sacred Academy. He had already reached the mid-stage of the Primordial Realm and had lived for over seven hundred years.

"...As everyone knows, this second half of the year is a small recruitment period. Our Holy Academy will still only admit 10,000 new students."

At the end of the speech, Vice President Xu Daofu transitioned the topic to admissions.

"This is not right! Vice President Xu Daofu. Everyone knows that your Saint Academy admitted a new student named Ding Yubai directly into the special training class. Isn't this a clear violation of the rule of only admitting 10,000 new students?"

As Xu Daofu finished speaking, a young man standing at the front of the freshmen spoke loudly, deliberately questioning.

"Who is this person? How dare he openly question it?"

"Wait, this guy looks somewhat similar to Ni Yuntian. Could he be Ni Yuntian's younger brother, Ni Feiyu?"

"Only someone like this would dare to openly question it. However, this is fine. I'd like to hear what explanation the Holy Academy has to offer."

"Hey, that's not right! Isn't this Ni Feiyu a student in the Qingdeng class at Mingdaoyuan? Why wouldn't he want to transfer to my Holy Academy?"

"..."

This undoubtedly caused a huge uproar and attracted a lot of discussion among the freshmen.

"Well, Ni Feiyu, I see you've come here specifically to publicly question me. But you're just asking for trouble, aren't you?"

Luo Huo, who was standing alone on the side, clenched his fists in anger when he heard this.

"It seems the rumors are true. This Ni Feiyu must have come here specifically to target Yu Bai because of his brother?"

After hearing this, Qingtai subconsciously thought of Ding Yubai and was worried that he would become a strong rival of Ding Yubai in the next freshman selection.

Facing this public questioning, Yue Yinhua remained calm and said calmly, "This is only because Ding Yubai successfully passed the three major entrance tests of our Holy Academy."

"What?! He's passed all three admission tests? Since Dean Yue dared to say it in public, it must be true!"

"It's rumored that the three major tests of the Holy Academy are not something that anyone can pass. This is because it's rumored that each of these three levels contains a secret."

"The three major tests of the Holy Academy are meant to test the secrets of heaven. Three hundred years ago, Xifeng, the number one prodigy in the Netherworld, was determined to surpass Feng Youyang and take the three tests for admission to the Holy Academy. As a result, he became insane and lost his mind, dying before he even reached the age of thirty."

"That's right! Besides, before Xifeng, there were no less than a dozen brilliant geniuses who insisted on passing the three major entrance tests of the Holy Academy. Without exception, the results were either madness or death. This has become a major death test of the Holy Academy."

"He's truly a freak. I never thought that after Feng Youyang, there would be someone who successfully passed the three major entrance tests for the Holy Academy, and even successfully passed all three levels."

"If Ding Yubai can really pass the three major entrance tests of the Holy Academy, he will undoubtedly be able to enter the special training class as an exception."

"..."

As Yue Yinhua told the truth, a group of unknown teachers and students in the academy were shocked and talked about it.
