I Am the Greatest Opportunity You'll Ever Encounter in This Life!

Not long after, the blood-robed youth also released his hand as if shocked.

The youth was named Xue Jiu, the Young Palace Lord of Nine Killers Palace, and the undisputed Crown Prince of the dark underbelly of Tianxiao Continent.

At this moment, Xue Jiu's expression flickered, sometimes vexed, sometimes furious.

"The Ancient Stone Tablet is actually the assessment passage for a Low-Level Academy under Taiyuan Divine Court. Damn it, I didn't pass!" Xue Jiu fumed inwardly, but a blazing, fervent light flickered in his eyes.

"If I can pass the assessment and successfully enter that Low-Level Academy under Taiyuan Divine Court, my status in the Main God Hall will surely ascend, at least to a Level 3 Contractor."

"According to historical records, every time the Ancient Stone Tablet appears, it stays for a month." Xue Jiu's eyes flickered as he clenched his fist tightly. "This month is my last chance!"

But then, Xue Jiu frowned. "But breaking limits is no easy feat, unless..."

Xue Jiu's eyes lit up slightly. "Unless I make a major breakthrough in strength in a short time."

Thinking this, Xue Jiu couldn't help but recall a cauldron he had long coveted. "Su Qingyao, you're mine!"

"Even Xue Jiu didn't pass."

On many flying boats, numerous young elites were shaken.

On a large rock, Jun Xiaoyao sneered coldly. "Xue Jiu, even I couldn't do it. Do you think you can?"

Only those who had experienced it understood the difficulty of the assessment.

It was practically the Eighteenth Level of Hell.

He, Jun Xiaoyao, had fought nearly undefeated across Tianxiao Continent at the same realm, yet before that Witch Race opponent of equal realm, he couldn't even muster the strength to fight back.

Hearing this, Xue Jiu's eyes turned cold. He didn't respond to Jun Xiaoyao, turning and leaving directly.

It wasn't that he feared Jun Xiaoyao; he simply looked down on him.

As a Level 2 Contractor of the Main God Hall, his horizons were vast, and he knew how big the world was. He held no regard for these native prodigies of Tianxiao Continent.

"Heh."

Seeing Xue Jiu ignore him and leave, Jun Xiaoyao let out a cold laugh, a fierce killing intent flashing deep in his eyes.

Two peerless prodigies failing the assessment in succession made countless examinees hesitate, while also stirring up a massive uproar.

Deep within the palace.

Lu Yuan sat quietly by the lake, fishing, but his divine sense had long left his body, overlooking ten thousand miles of land from the sky.

By Lu Yuan's ear, the voice of the Heavenly Mandate Great Villain System rang out continuously.

[Ding! A Child of Destiny detected.]

[Ding! A Child of Destiny detected.]

[Ding! A Child of Destiny detected.]

[...]

"More and more prey, but for now, there's no rush. Not enough yet." Lu Yuan smiled lightly and withdrew his divine sense.

By the lake, Er Gouzi lay prostrate beside Lu Yuan, looking at him curiously and asking, "Master, to make it onto the Ancient Stone Tablet, one has to break limits, right?"

Lu Yuan nodded.

He wasn't surprised that Er Gouzi knew about breaking limits. Er Gouzi had come down from the Upper Realm, so knowing about it was nothing strange.

Er Gouzi wagged his tail and flattered, "A small place is a small place. In millions of years, only three Limit Breaking Prodigies have appeared. But even those three Limit Breaking Prodigies, before you, Master, who is at least at Limit Break Level Three and a Prodigy Supreme, are nothing but a joke, right?"

After a round of flattery, Er Gouzi asked a seemingly trivial question.

"Master, how many levels have you broken? I think at least three."

Hearing this, Lu Yuan said in a gentle tone, "Er Gouzi, are you testing me?"

Er Gouzi's whole body trembled, and he quickly pressed his head to the ground.

"Er Gouzi wouldn't dare."

Glancing at Er Gouzi, Lu Yuan said, "This once. Also, there's no need to test me. You only need to understand that your master is forever undefeated at the same realm, no matter the place, no matter the world."

Er Gouzi's pupils shook in shock, and he inwardly sucked in a cold breath.

No matter the place, no matter the world, forever undefeated at the same realm.

Those words were too big, too arrogant.

But they displayed Lu Yuan's strength and confidence.

Time passed slowly. The next day, two pieces of news shook Tianxiao Continent.

The first piece of news: Empress Qingyao failed her challenge against the Ancient Stone Tablet.

The second piece of news: Lin Hao, Holy Son of the Primordial Sacred Land, challenged the Ancient Stone Tablet successfully in the dead of night. The moment he succeeded, he ascended to the Upper Realm, as if fleeing from something.

These two pieces of news left countless people stunned.

No one had expected that Empress Qingyao, hailed as the greatest prodigy in nearly a thousand years, would fail her challenge.

Even fewer could have imagined that Lin Hao, who had always been unknown, would actually succeed in the challenge and become the Fourth Person of Eternity.

This was something even the Divine Son of the Jun Family, the Young Palace Lord of Nine Killers Palace, and the Empress of the First Central Empire had failed to achieve.

Deep within the imperial palace.

When Lu Yuan heard the news, he was stunned for a moment as well.

"Lin Hao is actually a Limit Breaking Prodigy? Interesting. I underestimated that kid."

"Young Master seems to pay special attention to Lin Hao?"

Su Qingyao knelt nearby, her captivating eyes wide with curiosity.

Lu Yuan shook his head with a smile. "Not particularly. It's just that I feel a bit of regret, like a sheep has slipped out of the sheepfold."

Su Qingyao's beautiful eyes flickered with confusion, unable to grasp his meaning. Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she couldn't help asking, "Young Master, do you know of the Taiyuan Divine Court?"

"Oh?"

Hearing those four words, a sharp gleam shot from Lu Yuan's eyes. He turned to Su Qingyao and asked seriously, "Where did you learn of the Taiyuan Divine Court?"

This was the first time Lu Yuan had shown such a grave and serious expression. Su Qingyao then told him everything about the contents of the Ancient Stone Tablet.

After listening, Lu Yuan's eyes were filled with extreme surprise.

"The Ancient Stone Tablet is actually an assessment channel for an Affiliated Academy of the Taiyuan Divine Court. Interesting."

But then, Lu Yuan shook his head with a sigh. "Pity, it's only a Low-Level Academy. The Low-Level Academies under the Taiyuan Divine Court are spread across the Cosmic Heavens. If not a thousand trillion, then at least a hundred trillion of them."

Putting away the surprise in his eyes, Lu Yuan looked at Su Qingyao and said seriously:

"I didn't care much about the Ancient Stone Tablet before, and honestly, I still don't care much now. Even if it's an affiliated academy, I wouldn't dare to enter, and they wouldn't dare to accept me. But for you, this is a tremendous opportunity."

Su Qingyao's expression shifted slightly.

Lu Yuan said, "The Taiyuan Divine Court is a hegemon force in the Infinite Multiverse."

Seeing the confusion in Su Qingyao's eyes, Lu Yuan smiled and explained, "Take the Tianxiao Continent, for example. The Tianxiao Continent is merely a Subordinate Lower Space-Time of the Dark Continent. Lower space-times like the Tianxiao Continent are endless around the Dark Continent."

"On the Dark Continent, any force with even a bit of fame has subordinate lower space-times under its command. Some powerful forces might even have a hundred trillion or a thousand trillion lower space-times."

"And the Dark Continent is just one corner of the Primordial Great Realm. The Primordial Great Realm is merely one of the Infinite Great Realms in the Qingling Realm Domain. The Taiyuan Divine Court exists above the Qingling Realm Domain, with affiliated forces in every Great Realm."

Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Su Qingyao's breathing quickened. This was the first time she had seen the true world through someone else's words.

Even if only described verbally, Su Qingyao could feel its infinite vastness.

At this moment, Su Qingyao suddenly felt a sense of oppression, a sense of confinement. She suddenly felt that the Tianxiao Continent was like a cage, making her uncomfortable.

"So, although it's only a subordinate Low-Level Academy, for you, it is the second greatest opportunity you will ever encounter in this life."

"The first greatest opportunity was becoming my maidservant."

As Lu Yuan spoke these words, he fixed his gaze on Su Qingyao.
