179: Dayan Academy

Time passed in the blink of an eye, four days had gone by.

After four long and exhausting days of flying, Yang Lingchen finally crossed that vast, boundless mountain range with its towering peaks.

That day, Yang Lingchen arrived at a place called Black Water City. He used a clever disguise technique to slightly alter his appearance, then calmly entered Black Water City.

Through some careful inquiries, Yang Lingchen learned that this was the location of the Great Yan Dynasty in the Tianfeng World.

Subsequently, Yang Lingchen bought some precious books about the Tianfeng World at a bookstore in Black Water City.

To establish a foothold in this completely unfamiliar world, he had to first gain a deep understanding of every aspect of it.

The Tianfeng World was extremely vast; if the Tianwu Continent were just a remote and narrow mountain village, then the Tianfeng World would be equivalent to a prosperous and flourishing giant city, the gap between them being self-evident.

The Tianfeng World had ten top-tier powers, and these ten top-tier powers had almost carved up all the territory of the Tianfeng World.

Beneath these ten top-tier powers were over a hundred Intermediate powers, and under each Intermediate power were countless lower-tier powers.

In the Tianfeng World, the Rank of a power symbolized one's status, position, and social class.

The gap in strength between powers of different Ranks was as vast as the difference between heaven and earth.

Take the gap between a lower-tier power and an Intermediate power, for instance; even a hundred lower-tier powers could not possibly be the opponent of a single Intermediate power, because the two sides were simply not on the same level.

One had to know that after the God Entry Realm, the Breakthrough of every minor Realm could be considered a step toward heaven, and the difficulty factor was imaginable.

Although the Great Yan Dynasty was a lower-tier power, its national territory was extremely vast. Within this region, the Great Yan Dynasty was one of the two overlords, and the other overlord was the Great Yan Academy.

Just then, Yang Lingchen saw an introduction about the Phoenix clan in the books.

The Phoenix clan was one of the hundred major Intermediate powers in the Tianfeng World, and the contemporary Clan Chief, Feng Xuanjun, was a renowned top expert in the Tianfeng World.

And the Great Yan Academy and the Great Yan Dynasty happened to be within the sphere of influence of the Phoenix clan.

"Xueqing, my wife, I promised I would find you, wait for me."

Yang Lingchen had originally thought that after his Ascension to the Tianfeng World, he would be able to quickly find Feng Xueqing, but now it seemed that this goal was still very far away.

Yang Lingchen knew well that the top priority was to quickly raise his own cultivation level; only by raising his cultivation level would he have the ability to bring Feng Xueqing back, otherwise, even if he went to find the Phoenix clan, he would only be bringing humiliation upon himself.

Moreover, Yang Lingchen had promised his wives back home that he would return to the Tianwu Continent within five years.

And to return to the Tianwu Continent, he had to break through to the Great Emperor Realm within five years, because only at the Great Emperor Realm would he possess the powerful ability to tear through the Void Realm.

Yang Lingchen was not afraid of not being able to find the way back, because he possessed the Origin stone of the Tianwu Continent on his person, so no matter where he went, he did not need to worry about not being able to find the location of the Tianwu Continent.

Of course, returning to the Tianwu Continent would not be that easy, at the very least, his cultivation level would need to break through to the Great Emperor Realm.

By then, he would be able to accurately find the location of the Tianwu Continent, and then tear through the Void Realm to successfully return to the Tianwu Continent.

After careful deliberation, Yang Lingchen decided to first join the Great Yan Academy, raise his cultivation level there, and incidentally search for the whereabouts of the shaping grass.

Moreover, at the Great Yan Academy, there would be opportunities to come into contact with the Phoenix clan, as the Great Yan Academy was a lower-tier power within the jurisdiction of the Phoenix clan.

The Great Yan Academy was the highest-level institution of learning in the Great Yan Dynasty, and young Geniuses from millions of kilometers around would take pride in being able to join the Great Yan Academy.

Of course, the Great Yan Academy and the Great Yan Dynasty did not have any direct relationship; the two sides were not subordinate to each other and belonged to powers of the same Rank.

It just so happened that in ten days or so, it would be the day for the Great Yan Academy to recruit new Disciples this year.

With a clear goal, Yang Lingchen no longer ran around like a headless chicken.

After spending some spirit crystals in Black Water City to replenish some precious medicinal herbs and some essential daily necessities, Yang Lingchen sped off in the direction of the Imperial capital of the Great Yan Dynasty.

Traveling all the way, with the support of sufficient spirit crystals, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level was also growing rapidly.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, ten days had gone by, and after ten days of sleeping in the open and eating in the wind, he finally arrived at the Imperial capital of the Great Yan Dynasty.

At the same time, during these ten days, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level had successfully broken through to the seventh layer of the God Entry Realm.

By now, the several thousand spirit crystals in his hands had been consumed until only one or two hundred remained.

Great Yan City, the Imperial capital of the Great Yan Dynasty, was an ancient city with a long history and deep heritage. Looking from afar, it resembled a giant Dragon coiling majestically, making people feel awe and reverence at a single glance.

The scale of Great Yan City was very vast; the city walls were built from incomparably sturdy extraterrestrial meteorites, the tall and thick black iron gates were solemn and dignified, and two rows of majestic City Guards wearing armor stood on both sides of the city gate.

Yang Lingchen paid one spirit crystal before he was able to enter Great Yan City.

"It seems I must find a way to earn spirit crystals." Looking at the few remaining spirit crystals, Yang Lingchen gave a helpless bitter smile in his heart.

The Heavenly Dao Laws of the Tianfeng World were far higher than those of the Tianwu Continent.

When Yang Lingchen was at the Saint Realm, he could become an overlord of the Tianwu Continent, but placed in the Tianfeng World, he was absolutely a bottom-tier person.

Of course, there were also many in the Emperor Realm and Saint Realm in the Tianfeng World, but those were basically just small children, or commoners with absolutely no talent for Cultivating.

Tomorrow was the day for registration at the Great Yan Academy.

Yang Lingchen rested for a day in Great Yan City, and early the next morning, he followed the clear guidance on the map and walked all the way in the direction of the Great Yan Academy.

"Rumble! Rumble!"

"Move aside, anyone who doesn't want to die, move aside!"

Just then, a giant beast carriage came whistling toward Yang Lingchen like a gale, its massive wheel hubs kicking up dust that filled the sky.

Yang Lingchen frowned and stepped slightly to the side; he was not a person who liked to meddle in things, as long as it didn't hit him, he couldn't be bothered to care about such trivial matters.

"Swish!"

Just as the beast carriage passed by Yang Lingchen's side, the driver on the beast carriage suddenly whipped toward Yang Lingchen fiercely.

Yang Lingchen's eyes turned cold, his right hand instantly reached out like lightning, firmly grabbing the whip in his hand.

Then, his Divine Origin Power surged along the whip and blasted over, directly causing the arm of that driver to shatter on the spot.

Although Yang Lingchen did not want to cause trouble, it did not mean he was afraid of trouble.

He had already given enough spacious road, yet this driver dared to attack him, so he had no need to show mercy.

"Ahhh...!"

The driver of the beast carriage screamed, struggling to bring the beast carriage to a stop.

Just then, a cold and slightly arrogant, sharp shout came from inside the beast carriage: "Acai, what's going on? Don't you know This Young Lady is in a rush to go register?"

"Young Miss, some brat just blocked our way and even crippled my arm."

Acai showed an incomparably painful expression on his face; at this moment, his entire arm was completely ruined.

"Stinky brat, you have such big guts, daring to injure This Young Lady's servant."

At this moment, a young girl wearing a pink long dress walked out of the beast carriage with an arrogant air; her skirt hem was embroidered with faint bougainvillea, and her snow-white cheeks carried a hint of wilfulness.

Yang Lingchen glanced coldly at this willful girl, then turned and continued walking in the direction of the Great Yan Academy; for such a brainless woman, he couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

"Stinky brat, how dare you ignore This Young Lady."

The willful girl's sword instantly unsheathed, directly slashing out a sharp Sword Qi, carrying strong Killing Intent, and slashed fiercely toward Yang Lingchen.

In this Great Yan City, although there were people who dared to ignore her, she did not feel that Yang Lingchen had that qualification.

From the first moment she saw Yang Lingchen, she could tell that Yang Lingchen was not a local of Great Yan City, so she did not take Yang Lingchen seriously.

Facing the willful girl's attack, Yang Lingchen turned suddenly, his figure dodging the opponent's strike with an agile side-step, and at the same time, his right foot kicked out fiercely, instantly kicking this willful girl so that she flew backward.

"Bang...!"

The willful girl was kicked and directly hit the wall not far behind her.

She climbed up with difficulty and shouted angrily: "Asshole, to dare to attack me, Bai Lianer, I will definitely wipe out your entire family!"

However, Yang Lingchen's figure had long since disappeared into the bustling street.
