Chapter 1231
At this moment, if the figure standing before him were not a Supreme powerhouse, Albert would have blurted out that he was just boasting. He knew full well how rare and formidable a genuine Nine-Star soul was. Among all his peers across the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, he had only ever seen two people possess one—Verity and Karl. Not to mention true Nine-Star souls, even pseudo Nine-Star ones were extremely uncommon. The proof lay with Dale: after years of accumulation, he had only recently managed to evolve his soul to pseudo Nine-Star by sheer luck, relying on the Azure Heavenly Dew Albert had given him.Yet this so-called True Dragon Embryo Pill could elevate a dragon soul straight to Nine-Star in one go. Logically speaking, such a thing should have been impossible.Seeing Albert’s utterly stunned expression, Donald chuckled. I am not deceiving you. The True Dragon Embryo Pill can indeed raise your dragon soul to Nine-Star—though the effect is not permanent, only temporary.A
Chapter 1232
For years following Andrew’s departure, the position of Chief Lord of the First Courtyard of the Dragon Tooth Vein had remained vacant. Without such a pillar to uphold it, the First Courtyard’s standing and influence had dwindled year after year. Many benefits that rightfully belonged to the First Courtyard were seized by the Fourth Courtyard, which had gained momentum to supplant the First Courtyard as the top courtyard of the Dragon Tooth Vein.What made matters worse was that Vein Lord Thomas voiced no objections to this state of affairs; at times, he even granted the Fourth Courtyard extra opportunities. Emboldened by this leniency, the Fourth Courtyard grew increasingly unbridled. The Second and Third Courtyards fared slightly better, bolstered by the leadership of Dennis and Cyrus respectively, yet the First Courtyard suffered terribly. Lacking a Chief Lord to back its interests, it could only stand by and watch as the Fourth Courtyard encroached on its territory and resources.

Thomas gestured for Albert to sit and have some bamboo shoots, then went on, Your performance in the Demon Abyss this time was outstanding—you’ve brought honor to both your father and me.Albert let out an honest, sheepish laugh.Thomas spoke in a calm, mild tone. That True Dragon Embryo Pill is a remarkable treasure. Beyond the obvious benefits it grants, its greater significance lies in letting you grow familiar with the power of Sacred Embryos. In the days ahead… it may even deepen your resonance with the Dragon Sacred Embryo.The Dragon Sacred Embryo? Albert’s heart skipped a beat. The True Dragon Embryo Pill, forged merely from siphoned fragments of Sacred Embryo power, already wielded such monstrous might. He could scarcely fathom what terrifying abilities the legendary Dragon Sacred Embryo itself must hold.Thomas did not dwell further on the subject. He retrieved a scarlet-red bracelet and held it out. I’ll return the Five-Tailed Heavenly Wolf to you. Its previous wounds have

Albert stared at the route on the map between Supreme Martin’s Clan and Heavenly Origin Ancient Academy. Even with a dragon ship for travel and occasional use of teleportation formations in cities along the way, the journey would still take roughly half a month to complete.Albert let out a quiet sigh, rolled up the map, and pulled out a gilded, exquisitely bound ancient tome inscribed with three archaic characters:Records of the Heavenly Origin.Compiled by the Clark Chamber of Commerce, this compendium contained exhaustive intelligence covering every corner of the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. It was wildly sought-after across the realm—Divine Realm powerhouses and minor Astral cultivators alike kept close track of its regular updates.To earn an entry within the Records of the Heavenly Origin meant one’s fame had spread far and wide across the continent.Albert opened the tome and flipped straight to the page for the Splendor Rankings.As his gaze swept the list, he spotted se

After watching them depart, Albert stepped into Zhaotian Pass. A guard promptly came forward to verify his identity and inquire about his reason for entering the academy.Albert spoke, My name is Albert. I am here to meet two acquaintances: Sweetie of the Three-Star Courtyard and Therman of the Four-Star Courtyard. Please send word to them.He was not a registered disciple of Heavenly Origin Ancient Academy, so he required an insider to escort him inside. That was precisely why he had befriended Therman and Sweetie back in the Cavern Secret Realm.He could hardly march up to the guards and demand an audience with Vice Dean Cynthia right away—they would almost certainly dismiss him outright.Moreover, he still needed to gather information: what sort of temperament Cynthia possessed, whether she was approachable, and what her connection to Dean Lane might be.Reaching out through student insiders like Sweetie and Therman was the perfect way to start.The guard treated him politely, with

Delight brimmed in Albert’s eyes as he smiled and said, Tutor Ilia was the squad mentor I had back at Newhurst Academy!Therman and Sweetie finally understood the reason for his great joy—meeting an old acquaintance in such a distant land was truly a rare stroke of luck for Albert.Sweetie frowned in confusion. Your Newhurst Academy’s situation is rather odd, though. You’ve only sent a single tutor for this assessment, with no disciples accompanying her. How can she take part in the evaluation alone?Albert fell silent for a moment. Newhurst Academy had been destroyed, its Soul Force Tree shattered. Even Dean Lane, the academy’s main pillar, had sealed himself away to slow the advance of the malevolent Sacred Spirit creatures invading Newhurst. Enoch’s betrayal had also brought devastating casualties to the academy.The academy’s strength had been crippled by all these disasters. It could barely cling to survival now, struggling to hold itself together, leaving it with no spare energy
Chapter 1237
A surge of blazing anger welled up within Ilia upon hearing this, her voice cold as frost. Your Sageze Academy is kicking us while we’re down!Spencer frowned. That’s going too far, Tutor Ilia. Do you honestly believe Newhurst Academy can pass the assessment? This way, you’ll at least walk away with a share of resources. Otherwise, you’ll return empty-handed for certain!Elder Xavier standing beside them smiled faintly. Tutor Ilia, the dean of Sageze Academy is Vice Dean Theodore’s own clansman.The words were spoken casually, yet their underlying message was crystal clear.It was at this moment that Ilia finally understood why she had been unable to secure an audience with Vice Dean Theodore over the ten days she had spent at Heavenly Origin Ancient Academy—her crumbling Newhurst Academy had long been targeted by them.Ilia clenched her delicate jade-like hands tight. She fixed her gaze on Elder Xavier and said icily, I demand an audience with Vice Dean Cynthia!Elder Xavier replied
Chapter 1238
Supreme Clans like this operate on a simple rule: pick on the young ones, and their elders will step forward; bully the elders, and the patriarchs will intervene. This chain of escalation would put even Heavenly Origin Ancient Academy in an awkward spot. By then, not just him, even Vice Dean Theodore would be left with a massive headache.Elder Xavier cleared his throat to break the silence and spoke slowly, I never imagined a direct descendant of the Dragon Tooth Vein Lord would be a disciple of Newhurst Academy. What an unexpected surprise.Albert smiled. Will Heavenly Origin Ancient Academy still drive us away now?Elder Xavier’s cheeks twitched slightly as he made excuses. It was never our intention to turn you away—I was merely upholding the academy’s regulations. Yet rules are rigid and can always be adjusted. Since Young Friend Albert is an honored guest of Supreme Martin’s Clan, we shall treat you with full hospitality.Earlier, when facing Ilia, who stood alone with no powerf

In the end, Xavier had no choice but to nod his head. Without another word, he turned and left alongside Spencer, who still simmered with unwillingness.Once Xavier and Spencer were gone, Albert turned to Therman and Sweetie with a smile. Could I ask the two of you for a favor?Therman let out a hearty laugh. Just name it.Albert said, I’d like to get information on all the delegations from other High-Grade Academies that have come to Heavenly Origin Ancient Academy for this Academy Tier Assessment.Sweetie looked astonished. You truly plan to compete as Newhurst Academy’s sole representative?Therman frowned as well. This is a team-based contest. Every other High-Grade Academy fields four disciples, one from each courtyard tier. While those from the One-Star and Two-Star Courtyards mostly serve as mere fillers, the competitors from the Three-Star and Four-Star Courtyards are far from trivial opponents.Though Therman had witnessed Albert’s strength and stratagems back in the Cavern S
Chapter 1240
This entire stretch marked by the bloody line has been tainted by malevolent thought energy. Countless bizarre, fiendish creatures keep emerging nonstop, and barely any living souls can be found on either side of the divide.The southern reaches of Newhurst are under the rule of the Royal Court led by the Eldest Princess. While they hold back the fiendish hordes, they are locked in constant warfare with the Regent, leaving the region in utter chaos.Newhurst Academy has lent immense aid by erecting defensive lines to exterminate the evil creatures, yet we’ve suffered heavy casualties over the past year. That is why we are in such desperate need of massive resource supplies.Albert stared at the scarlet line that cut the territory of Newhurst clean in two. Though it was merely a simple stroke on parchment, he could vividly picture the unbridled brutality rampant across that land.During the Holy Grail War, he had witnessed the Black Wind Empire swallowed by fiendish beasts, and the hor
