Divine Cultivator: Rebirth of the God Emperor

Training at the Earth Dragon Tower**

Magnus Raven, the head of the God Tower Academy, scanned the entire assembly of students. Whatever he was looking for, he continued, “Therefore, train to overcome every test I give you. There are five exams you must pass if you want to successfully obtain a cultivation ticket in this God Tower. This time, I am giving the opportunity to only three students to enter the God Tower.”

Magnus Raven concluded his announcement by motivating the students to train harder. He mentioned that he wouldn’t reappear for the next three months. Shortly afterward, he returned to the God Tower. The students then returned to their respective places.

The next day, all new students were gathered in the main building of the God Tower Academy, not far from the tower where the academy head lived. About fifty new students were accepted into the God Tower Academy this time, all selected individuals who had passed the given tests. Except for a few, including Julius, who received a special recommendation, making it easy for them to enter the God Tower Academy.

In front of the main building of the God Tower, the grandmasters from each tower were already standing. They grouped the students according to their respective towers based on their names and places of origin. The Masters introduced themselves to their students, after which they were taken to training rooms created by their respective Masters in a different dimension.

In the Earth Dragon Tower, there were about 15 new students who would learn under the grandmaster named Rylan Dragon. This Master was known for his intelligence and strict nature towards the students. He was around 60 years old and married to a 45-year-old woman named Freya Iron. They had a 16-year-old daughter named Amara Gold.

Amara Gold studied in the same tower as her parents, meaning Amara Gold was both a daughter and a student of both of them. Currently, Amara Gold was in the third level of the heavenly spirit realm. She was a senior middle-level student at the God Tower Academy.

In the academy, the highest-ranking student was in the third level of the semi-fairy realm. This student was Rowan Storm, was a young man in his twenties. Although he was relatively young, none of the students at the God Tower Academy were at the same level as him. This level was almost on par with the assistant Masters who were mostly in the fifth level of the semi-fairy realm.

“Students, before I teach you about self-defense techniques and cultivation, I will first inform you about the rules I will enforce during teaching. Firstly, I don’t want any student thinking about unrelated matters and losing concentration while I’m teaching. If I find anyone doing so, that student will be expelled from the Earth Dragon Tower, and they can try entering another tower.”

With a stern tone and an intimidating manner, Rylan explained the rules students must follow when learning from him. In addition to paying attention to the lessons, students were not allowed to skip classes for any reason. Any violation would result in expulsion from the Earth Dragon Tower.

The students remained silent, not daring to respond or comment on what Rylan said. They were forbidden from speaking while he spoke. Tension was palpable as Rylan delivered his lessons, and his tall, imposing figure made people afraid to cross him.

“Today, you will start learning the techniques of gathering and focusing energy to maximize your martial spirit’s capabilities. Each of you will be assessed for your martial spirit realm. If any of you are below the middle level of the Earth Spirit realm, you will be expelled from this Academy. That means you manipulated data about the level of your martial spirit realm,” Rylan Dragon stated in his flat voice.

Rylan Dragon then disappeared after concluding his speech. He returned to the dimensional world in the God Tower Academy. Meanwhile, the 15 new students remained in the training dimension, supervised by three senior middle-level individuals. Shortly afterward, a middle-aged person dressed in black and green appeared. He was around fifty years old.

“Students, let me introduce myself. I am Lin Duano, an assistant Master who will instruct the Earth Dragon Tower group. You are gathered in the Earth Dragon Tower group because the purity of your souls is above level five. The advantage of those with purity of soul above level five is that they can easily possess a strong sword intent. Because the purity of the soul significantly determines the strength of one’s sword intent,” said the Master dressed in black and green, claiming to be Lin Duano.

Lin Duano then performed a detection of the martial spirit levels they possessed. He summoned an array for detecting realms with his sealing technique. A square-shaped pattern emitted light upwards. Lin Duano then instructed the students to enter the array one by one.

In reality, it was quite easy for cultivators to detect the martial spirit levels of other cultivators. However, the protection was not fooled by students who had the ability to conceal their martial spirit levels. What Lin Duano feared was that there might be someone intentionally infiltrating, pretending to be a new student.

After testing all the students, almost all of them were in the first level of the heavenly spirit realm. Only two individuals remained in the ninth level of the Earth Spirit realm. The most outstanding was Kael Frostborn, who was in the third level of the heavenly spirit realm, nearly matching the average level of senior middle-level students.

“Good, I believe you are worthy of being students in the God Tower Academy. However, after learning here, you must be able to enhance your abilities and quickly ascend to the next realm level,” explained Lin Duano while retracting the realm measuring array.

“Alright, Master!” the new students replied in unison.

“Today, we will learn the technique of manifesting your martial spirit. Remember, manifesting your martial spirit is very risky; you might lose it when facing a strong enemy or be deceived by someone, leading to the theft of your martial spirit,” explained Master Lin Duano.
