System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

Qingtian City, a branch of the Tianqing Academy.

Inside the residence, which was adorned with various elegant landscape paintings, the walls were painted with either bold strokes or delicate touches, all exuding an atmosphere of tranquility and serenity, truly the style of a cultivator skilled in ink painting.

Tianxing, overjoyed, found Zimo with the latest news.

“I told you, Chen Xuan would definitely be able to become a disciple of the Nine Heavens Profound Purity Palace.” Tianxing looked at the calm and composed Zi Mo with great interest and continued, “Don’t expect him to fail to become a disciple and then switch to one of the Four Great Academies.”

"When did I ever expect him to fail in his attempt to become a disciple of Xuanqing Palace?"

Zi Mo gave a slight, coquettish look and glared at Tian Xing with her beautiful eyes. "His ability to overcome all obstacles and enter the sect is due to his strength and foundation. I did consider recruiting him into the Four Great Academies, but unfortunately, he has lofty ambitions."

As she spoke, a hint of regret flashed in Zi Mo's eyes, but more than that, it was admiration and appreciation for Chen Xuan.

"Oh, by the way, I heard that the entrance test for Xuanqing Palace this time was extremely strict and complicated. The usual screening of innate talent is one thing, but I heard that many real geniuses from major tribes failed miserably in the second and third rounds. It is said that the Yuan Shen Daoists of Xuanqing Palace deliberately misled many talented disciples, causing them to perish in the third round."

Tianxing tilted his head slightly, his eyes filled with curiosity and doubt, as if he was trying to imagine the scene of the test in his mind. "I really don't know what the higher-ups of Xuanqing Palace are thinking. So many geniuses want to join the sect, yet they still have to go through all sorts of tests to eliminate them."

Upon hearing this, Zi Mo gently shook his head, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Xuanqing Palace has always done this since ancient times, not just once or twice. This practice is presumably to select disciples who are truly persevering, insightful, and aligned with the sect's ideals. Only by undergoing numerous trials can one go further on the path of cultivation."

“That’s true. By the way, Zimo, I also heard some news about the young princess Qingtian Yu’er.” Tianxing spoke with great interest, “The young princess neither joined the Xuanqing Palace nor the Taiqing Palace, but instead joined the Tushen Guard.”

"The Godslayer Guard?"

Zi Mo murmured softly, his brows furrowing slightly. After a moment, he slowly nodded. "The God-Slaying Guard was established by Emperor Xuanxiao and has endless resources. It's natural that the descendants of the feudal lords who join it have their own agendas."

"Hehe, I told you so. The little princess and Chen Xuan are not Daoist partners at all. Otherwise, why would the little princess agree to join the God-Slaying Guard?" Tianxing had a smug smile on his face, as if he had discovered a huge secret.

Upon hearing this, Zi Mo shook her head and smiled gently, "With this energy, you might as well prepare for the Immortal Realm Ancient Road three years from now. That Immortal Realm Ancient Road gathers three thousand feudal sects from the Xuanxiao World, as well as many monstrous talents from the Xuanxiao royal family. The competition is fiercer than you can imagine." A hint of solemnity appeared in her eyes, as if reminding Tian Xing not to underestimate it.

"What's there to prepare? Once the Ancient Road to the Immortal Realm opens, all three thousand feudal sects of my Xuanxiao World, as well as many prodigies from the Xuanxiao Royal Family, will participate. No matter how much we prepare, we'll just be there to make up the numbers. We might as well take it easy." Tianxing shrugged helplessly, his face full of indifference.

"Yes, yes, you're absolutely right." Zi Mo looked at Tian Xing's expression and shook his head with a helpless smile.

Regardless of Tianxing's opinion on the opening of the Immortal Realm Ancient Road in three years, Zimo has already made plans and must prepare well during these three years.

The residence of the Marquis of Qingtian, the residence of the heir apparent.

"Young Master, this is the news of Xuanqing Palace accepting disciples today." A silver-armored Taoist soldier knelt respectfully on one knee, presenting the letter with both hands, and reported to Qingtian Xiaolou. The silver armor gleamed with a cold metallic luster under the candlelight, further highlighting the respect and solemnity of the Taoist soldier guarding the young master.
