Below Wuhun Mountain
Inside an ancient, unadorned palace, Xilmon sat before a desk, quietly leafing through the files on talented students sent over by Martial God Academies from various regions.
Over the past several decades, Martial God Hall had recruited quite a few gifted students from the major academies. More than twenty of them had already become level-nine warriors, and one exceptional genius had even broken through into the Saint Realm.
With the various Martial God Academies supplying talent, the growth of Martial God Hall's reserves was just around the corner.
A moment later, Xilmon set down the book, and the scene that had taken place on Wuhun Mountain more than two years ago unconsciously resurfaced in his mind.
Recalling that sudden, immense disturbance, Xilmon was certain that it had been a phenomenon that could only occur when the laws of heaven and earth descended.

Having once been a nominal disciple of the Goddess of Dark Night, Xilmon had heard some knowledge about godhood from several senior brothers who were her personal disciples. He knew that divine experts were divided into Lowgods, Midgods, and Highgods.
