Chapter 55: Arriving at Deer Chase Academy

After walking a distance with the crowd, Shi Jian saw a massive stone tablet standing ahead. The four characters for Deer Chase Academy were inscribed on the tablet, written with powerful and vigorous strokes. A vast and grand aura emanated from the characters, as if a Divine being stood there. Even before reaching the mountain gate, tens of thousands of people were already waiting there. These individuals had all come to seek knowledge. They hailed from various corners of the Great Wilderness, each a genius from a major tribe or a super tribe. Only major tribes or super tribes could traverse hundreds of thousands of miles to bring these individuals to Deer Chase Academy. In the distance, a pure white feather horizontally traversed the sky, with dozens of women standing upon it, gazing into the distance as if searching for something. Another beast hide floated horizontally, also carrying a group of people, seemingly waiting for something. There were many such groups, revealing them to be informants dispatched by various powers. They were waiting here specifically for Shi Jian. Ever since Shi Jian caused a stir during his first visit to the Virtual God Realm, these individuals had come here. Shi Jian made no attempt to conceal himself, directly unfurling his Demonic Wings and flying towards this location. He did not head for the mountain gate but flew directly towards the palace at the very center of Deer Chase Academy. That was where Deer Chase Academy received distinguished guests. There were daughters of the Supreme Human Emperor, descendants of Archaic Remnants, and even visitors from other domains... All individuals of noble status were gathered there. Shi Jian's arrival quickly drew everyone's attention; many people had seen his face! "He's here! He's really at Deer Chase Academy, that mysterious youth!" A cry of surprise erupted from the crowd! "Who?" "Ba Ba!" Someone recognized Shi Jian; countless people had seen his true face when he dominated the Initial Land! Coupled with his complete lack of concealment, he was instantly recognized. "His arrival at Deer Chase Academy is destined to cause a massive stir in the future!" some elder of a large tribe narrowed his eyes and said with emotion. Shi Jian, a youth of mysterious origin and terrifying strength. His first appearance in the Virtual God Realm revealed terrifying talent, breaking the Virtual God Realm's record and setting an unprecedented "Blood Moving Realm two hundred thousand jin" Divine Power! Upon his debut, he was like a blazing sun, illuminating endless mountains and rivers, leaving behind terrifying legends. Prodigies from various races had suppressed their Cultivation and gone to the Virtual God Realm to challenge him. The result was defeat for each of them. Afterward, he even appeared in the Virtual God Realm with a group of mysterious youths. That group of mysterious youths also had terrifying origins and had all broken through their limits. Setting records unprecedented and unmatched. Qing Emperor, White Emperor, Black Emperor, Ye Ye... The legends of these four individuals still circulate in the Virtual God Realm today. Their origins are as mysterious as Ba Ba's. Everyone knows nothing about them. Some speculated that Shi Jian and the others were "descendants of Deities!" and that a great calamity was about to begin, so they had all emerged. Others speculated that they were beings from the Upper Realm, inheritors of a great sect... There were many different theories, and among these theories, the only consistent point was Shi Jian's terrifying talent and terrifying background. It was precisely for this reason that various powers attached so much importance to him. They even arranged for informants to come to Deer Chase Academy early... And many Prodigies from great clans also joined Deer Chase Academy, hoping to contend with Shi Jian. They believed that while Shi Jian was invincible in the Blood Moving Realm, he might not be invincible in the Cave Heaven Realm. Even Shi Yi, who had been extraordinary since childhood and was born with the aura of a Young Supreme, also wanted to join Deer Chase Academy to contend with Shi Jian. There were rumors that this Heavy Pupils had Cultivated to a certain Realm and was preparing to break through the Virtual God Realm's extreme limit. However, the Virtual God Realm had been ravaged by Ba Ba and the other mysterious youths. Many extreme records had been refreshed. The Heavy Pupils was also powerless to break the limit again... In short, although Shi Jian was not in the Jianghu, his legends were everywhere in the Jianghu. Now he had appeared in the Jianghu. "Deer Chase Academy, Ba Ba is here..." Shi Jian ignored the discussions of those around him, directly letting out a long cry towards Deer Chase Academy to announce his arrival. "Ba Ba is here! This is great, Ba Ba is here..." Upon hearing Shi Jian's voice, the Elder and the Dean of Deer Chase Academy showed expressions of joy, and in the next instant, their figures simultaneously appeared before the mountain gate. "Wow, it really is you! You've finally come!" The Dean of Deer Chase Academy looked at Shi Jian with immense excitement; although Shi Jian had joined Deer Chase Academy in the Virtual God Realm, he had not come to Deer Chase Academy, which made the Dean's heart anxious. He was afraid that Shi Jian would be abducted by other forces. Now that Shi Jian had arrived, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief. "Since I joined Deer Chase Academy, I would definitely come!" Shi Jian replied calmly. The Dean of Deer Chase Academy smiled upon hearing this and was about to speak again when suddenly, the informants from various forces surrounded them. Then he snorted coldly: "Fellow Daoists, what is the meaning of this? What is your intention by coming to the mountain gate of my Deer Chase Academy?" As he spoke, a runic light shot out from his eyes, and his voice boomed, causing people's ears to ring and their eyes to blur. "Fellow Daoist, please forgive us, we only came to visit Deer Chase Academy..." Someone spoke, and others followed suit. "Coming to visit my Deer Chase Academy empty-handed, are you all looking down on my Deer Chase Academy?" A dangerous glint flashed in the Dean of Deer Chase Academy's eyes. The Elder-masters of the Academy cooperated by releasing their own aura. A terrifying aura instantly swept across the entire scene. Those tribal prodigies who had simply come to seek knowledge instantly trembled with fear. That group of people chuckled awkwardly; their true intentions were clear to everyone. Now that the Dean of Deer Chase Academy was using this as an excuse, they could only brace themselves. "How could that be? My Gu Clan specifically brought generous gifts to congratulate Deer Chase Academy on accepting a Young Supreme!" After speaking, that person reluctantly took out various treasures... The Dean of Deer Chase Academy nodded with satisfaction, then cast a stern gaze at the others. "Hahaha, exactly, exactly, we have all come to congratulate Deer Chase Academy on gaining a Young Supreme..." Under immense pressure, the others had no choice but to gather gifts for Deer Chase Academy. A smile immediately appeared on the Dean of Deer Chase Academy's face. "Where is Master Li? As the welcoming elder of my Deer Chase Academy, how can you let these distinguished guests stay at the mountain gate? The mountain gate is too cold, quickly welcome them into the outer courtyard..." The Dean spoke with a warm expression, showing concern for the many guests. "It is my inadequate hospitality..." An elder of Deer Chase Academy immediately stepped forward to respond, then greeted everyone with a smiling face. A group of people entered Deer Chase Academy with dark expressions. Shi Jian watched from the side with great interest; this Dean was quite amusing.
