"Yang Yi? Hmm, I'll be called Yang Yi from now on."

Hearing this, the young man nodded.

Meanwhile, in an unknown place.

There was a Jade Stone here, identical in shape to the Yang Extreme Stone, but light blue in color.

Similarly, within the Jade Stone was a young girl, appearing to be around eleven or twelve years old.

The girl's closed eyes in the Jade Stone moved slightly. At the same time, a beam of light suddenly shone from the Jade Stone, only slowly receding after a while.

Then, everything returned to its previous tranquility.

Heavenly Desolation Continent.

Eastern Domain, Heavenly Extremity Sacred Land.

Inside a luxurious great hall.

Two young girls were engrossed in conversation.

"Xinran, I never expected that not only do you have outstanding talent, but you also have such a powerful father."

Recalling the scenes from the enrollment ceremony, Jin Xiaoya couldn't help but exclaim.

"Actually, I only found out about my dad's strength today. Hmph, he actually hid it from me for twelve years."

Ye Xinran said, feigning anger.

Although she was indeed a little displeased, her heart was filled with more curiosity and admiration for Ye Chang'an's strength.

An utterance that extinguished a Great Sage, a strike that severed a Lightning Tribulation.

Who wouldn't be stunned seeing that?

It was too flashy.

At least, that's what Ye Xinran thought at the moment.

Perhaps she wouldn't be so surprised when she could do the same.

However, she believed that even then, Ye Chang'an would still be someone she admired.

"Why do you think your father kept it from you?"

Jin Xiaoya grew curious.

"I don't know." Ye Xinran herself didn't know. She then changed the subject: "Sister Xiao Xiaoya, you're not simple either."

"That person earlier said you were from the Myriad Treasures Building. What is the Myriad Treasures Building? Judging by his cautious demeanor, it must be very powerful."

"The Myriad Treasures Building is a top power in the Central Domain. It can be said that throughout the Heavenly Desolation Continent, when it comes to wealth, our Myriad Treasures Building is second to none."

Jin Xiaoya said with a proud and confident smile.

"So rich? Then does the Myriad Treasures Building have many powerful experts? Otherwise, how could they protect so many resources?"

Ye Xinran asked this question with a naive expression.

This made Jin Xiaoya freeze on the spot.

Isn't it obvious? It's a top power, okay? Besides, who would directly ask about combat power like that? Is that something that can be discussed so directly?

However, Jin Xiaoya still replied, "Of course. Top powers in the Central Domain all have many experts. As one of the top powers in the Central Domain, our Myriad Treasures Building is no exception.

However, based on my understanding of the major powers, the strongest person on the continent right now is undoubtedly your father."

"Hehe, I also feel like my dad is the strongest."

"That's right, which is why I'm sticking with you."

Jin Xiaoya said jokingly, but a hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes.

This was precisely what Ye Xinran didn't notice.

"Xiaoya, I heard that after every enrollment ceremony, there's a Secret Realm Trial?"

"Yes, it's in three days. All newly recruited disciples have to go in then."

In the void.

"Secret Realm Trial, it seems Xinran can use this opportunity to improve her strength."

Listening to their conversation, Ye Chang'an also looked forward to this trial.

After all, Ye Xinran's improvement meant a direct improvement for Ye Chang'an.

"Hall Master, why is Eleven following us?"

Shangguan Shi, standing beside him, watched Yang Yi, who was constantly consuming resources behind them, his eyes twitching.

This guy had been following them all the way without speaking, only knowing how to eat and eat.

Although he was eating, in reality, these resources were transformed into energy and absorbed as soon as they entered his mouth.

"He's so... naive. It's best to take him outside more often..."

That's right, Ye Chang'an was afraid that if Yang Yi stayed to cultivate at the Primordial Divine Hall, his naive nature would never change. That's why Ye Chang'an chose to keep him by his side.

"Hall Master, Tenth Senior Brother, do you two want some too? Here."

Seeing Ye Chang'an and the other man looking at him, Yang Yi placed the resources he hadn't finished eating on the table before them and asked with a smile.

"No need, you eat it yourself."

Ye Chang'an replied with a smile.

Shangguan Shi, however, smiled and shook his head.

Heavenly Extremity Sacred Land, Sacred Peak.

This was the place where the Heavenly Extremity Sacred Land's Holy Son and Saintess cultivated.

After Jin Xiaoya and Lin Tianci were taken as Personal Disciples by the Holy Master Xuanyuan Chen, they also became the Saintess and Holy Son.

At this moment, in a grand hall on Sacred Peak.

Two young men sat facing each other, their eyes filled with fighting spirit.

Lin Tianci looked at the young man opposite him, whose sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and elegant appearance, and restrained yet imposing aura, had been observed for a long time.

"Xuanyuan Hao, the Eastern Domain Prodigy Ranking ranks you ahead of me. I don't quite agree with that."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Hao opposite him spoke in a calm tone, with a hint of a smile, "I'm also very curious. Is it only because I'm slightly older than you and my cultivation realm is one level higher that I'm ranked ahead of you?"

"We'll know once we spar," Lin Tianci said.

In his opinion, a difference of one cultivation realm was insignificant.

This was because he not only possessed the Supreme Divine Bone, but also... the Imperial Clan Bloodline.

"I don't like to take advantage of others, and I certainly won't win unfairly. There's no rush for us to have a proper match when our cultivation realms are equal."

A faint battle aura emanated from Xuanyuan Hao's body, but he didn't want to win unfairly.

For geniuses at their level, a one-level difference wasn't as negligible as Lin Tianci claimed.

He knew that Lin Tianci felt confident enough because of his Imperial Clan Bloodline.

But Xuanyuan Hao also had his own trump cards.

Therefore, he couldn't and wouldn't take advantage of such a situation.

If he were to win, it would be fair and square, leaving no room for anyone to find fault.

"The Sacred Land Grand Competition is in a year. That will be our chance. I hope your cultivation can catch up to mine, even though you're only one minor realm behind right now."

"One year? Alright, in one year, it will be time for us to settle this."

Hearing this, Lin Tianci agreed.

He had no worries about catching up to Xuanyuan Hao's cultivation realm in a year.

In fact, in his opinion, defeating an opponent at a higher realm would be even more glorious.

"You're very confident. However, this year's competition doesn't seem simple."

Recalling the pillar of light that shot straight into the sky he had seen in the plaza earlier, an unconcealable look of disbelief appeared in Xuanyuan Hao's eyes.

Upon being reminded, Lin Tianci also recalled what he had seen.

The sudden appearance of Jin Xiaoya, and the mysterious Ye Xinran.

Especially Ye Xinran, whose talent was so immense that she had shattered the Talent Crystal Pillar.

He had to admit that the scene at that time had shaken his Invincible Dao Heart.

A sense of powerlessness even surged within him.

Could anyone in this generation truly stand on par with Ye Xinran in terms of talent?

However, he quickly regained his composure.

Because talent doesn't represent everything.

Therefore, he still had a chance.

However, Lin Tianci didn't know that this thought of his would be completely overturned in the near future.

Not only Ye Xinran, but Lin Tianci was also completely stunned by Ye Xinran's father.

Such strength was truly terrifying.

In fact, Lin Tianci felt more admiration than anything else.

Many people were shocked to the point of their scalps going numb. Afterwards, the events of the Heavenly Extremity Sacred Land's enrollment ceremony quickly spread throughout the Eastern Domain, and even reached the Central Domain.

Ye Xinran also became the top-ranked individual on the newly released Eastern Domain Prodigy Ranking.
