Chapter 364: Chapter 365: So What About Donghuang?The next event was straightforward; Wang Cai didn’t need to say much more, and Xu Liang decided to join the Wangcai Divine Sect. Before making the decision, Xu Liang didn’t forget to ask Mu Can if joining the Wangcai Divine Sect would conflict with joining the Immortal Ancient Academy. This move greatly increased Wang Cai’s fondness for him. Facing such a temptation, yet still able to stick to his original intentions and inquire, Wang Cai did not doubt that if Mu Can told Xu Liang he could only choose one, Xu Liang would definitely choose the Immortal Ancient Academy without hesitation. The Immortal Ancient Academy has always been a place with open-door policies, with many students belonging to their own sects. Although the Academy does not mind if its students are associated with other sects, once one joins the Academy, absolutely no actions that harm the Academy are permitted. Otherwise, one would face being hunted down by all the teachers and students of the Academy. That would be terrifying. Keep in mind that the Immortal Ancient Academy has been around for many years; even many countries’ entire high-ranking officials are graduates of the Academy. Not only that, but many Emperors of various nations are also alumni. This is why the Immortal Ancient Academy is the most powerful institution in the Mortal World. Offending the Immortal Ancient Academy is tantamount to offending half of the Mortal World. Yet, given the Academy’s transcendent status, it rarely gets involved in the affairs of the Mortal World. If it weren’t for the invasion of the celestial demons and the crisis confronting the entire Mortal World, the Academy would not have taken action. "What’s wrong?" Wang Cai suddenly noticed something was off with Mu Can and followed his gaze, discovering an elegantly dressed young man. The young man was exceptionally handsome, and every move he made was full of momentum. His martial skills flowed from one to the next, making his opponent feel as though they were stuck in a quagmire, struggling to move. The young man won the fight with ease. "It’s nothing," Mu Can shook his head. Donghuang indeed also won his third match. A smile appeared on the corners of Mu Can’s mouth. Was he finally going to have a direct confrontation? "Is that Donghuang?" Wang Cai was astute and immediately realized from Mu Can’s behavior that he must have seen someone he knew. Judging by Mu Can’s reaction, it was surely an enemy, not a friend. This made it simple to deduce that the elegantly dressed young man must be Donghuang, whom Mu Can had been longing to confront. Regarding the grudge between Donghuang and Mu Can, Wang Cai had heard some details from Mu Can. Without Donghuang, Mu Can might not have obtained the Reincarnation Pearl so easily. However, the fact that Donghuang had schemed against Mu Can twice cannot be changed, so this revenge must be avenged. Furthermore, up until now, Mu Can’s senior brother has not returned, and this account must also be settled with Donghuang. Deep hatred, life and death struggle.

Even though there are restrictions inside the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, Mu Can couldn’t help but reveal his killing intent. Donghuang’s feet flashed with light, and he also appeared in the stands, clearly seeing Mu Can on this side. He lightly raised a hand to his neck and made a slashing gesture, then turned his head away without looking at Mu Can again. "So this brat is Donghuang? How dare he make that gesture at Grandpa Wang Cai? Does he not want to live anymore?" Although Mu Can was unfazed, as the two were mortal enemies, Wang Cai exploded with rage upon seeing the extremely insulting gesture. No one had dared to insult Wang Cai like that before. Even as a distinguished figure in the Supreme Interface, the High Celestial had been bitten by Wang Cai, leaving in a mess. A mere Donghuang dared to insult Wang Cai this way. Wang Cai stared intensely at Donghuang, committing his features to memory. Mu Can saw Wang Cai’s reaction but did not stop him, feeling warmth in his heart, knowing what Wang Cai meant. He just wanted to help Mu Can vent his anger. Mu Can gently patted Wang Cai, "I’ll do it myself. I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time." Ever since Mu Can lost his cultivation and returned to the Mu Family, there hadn’t been a day when he didn’t yearn for the day he could stand upright and defeat Donghuang. It seemed that day was no longer far off. "Congratulations to you all for advancing. Hurry and recover, as the next battle will be random matchups with a points system. Win a match, gain three points; lose a match, gain one point. The top three contestants will be victorious. Fight on, young ones." When all the battles had concluded, a stick of incense appeared in the Duel Arena, apparently marking the duration described by the mysterious voice. However, this random battle format seemed a bit unfair to those who had reached this point through good fortune alone. In this round, only a few individuals could possibly match Mu Can’s strength; the rest were there just by luck and were sure to be instantly defeated. "Let me calculate, the top three... you, me, and one other person... It seems there’s only one spot left for them." When Mu Can was deep in thought, he heard Wang Cai’s words and nearly laughed out loud, immediately dispersing the tense atmosphere. "That’s not how you calculate. Do you want to leave any chance for others?" Mu Can said with a laugh. Wang Cai looked up to see his little lackey and Xu Liang’s resentful gazes and immediately realized he might have misspoken. He then closed his mouth and gazed up at the sky, remaining quiet. However, Wang Cai felt there was nothing wrong with what he said. Mu Can was sure to win because he still had the powerful Reincarnation Pearl hidden within his body. As for Wang Cai’s own ability to laugh last, the reason was even simpler: Wang Cai had the power to break Arrays and use his other cultivation techniques, a huge advantage. "Be careful with the random matchups. If you encounter someone you can’t beat, surrender immediately. Otherwise, if you get injured and then have to face another opponent, even if you’re on equal footing, chances are you won’t win," Donghuang suddenly remembered something and cautioned his lackey and Xu Liang. It was odd; among the twenty who had successfully advanced, not a single person from the Wangcai Divine Sect had made it. It was unclear whether this was due to the Sect having exhausted all its luck. Receiving three Secret Manuals was an unprecedented event since the establishment of Tongshen Mountain. "Right, there’s a point for losing, so don’t act if there’s no certainty of winning," Xu Liang spoke up. However, he was addressing Wang Cai’s lackey, not Wang Cai and Mu Can. Xu Liang had no worries about them at all. Others would be fortunate not to cry when facing them. How difficult could the battle be? The duration of a stick of incense is neither long nor short. When the incense in the dueling ground had completely burned out, a melodious bell rang, and two codes appeared in the sky. The first battle was set, with Wang Cai taking the stage. It seemed that with only twenty contestants remaining, the battles didn’t need to happen simultaneously anymore. This meant those who were fighting later could take the opportunity to observe others’ cultivation techniques.
