This Kid Was a Ruthless Man Through and Through!

"Gulp!"

At the banquet, the only response from the students of the Giant God Academy to the Heaven-Supporting Great Sage was the sound of them swallowing hard.

They all stared intently at the jar of wine in front of the Heaven-Supporting Great Sage Holding Up the Sky, their eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

The once excited Great Sage Equaling Heaven blushed, and said sternly, "What kind of behavior is this, with you all so greedy for wine? Do you have even the slightest bit of the demeanor of a king or sage?"

Upon hearing this, no one said anything, but a thought flashed through everyone's mind.

How dare you criticize us like that?

You looked like you hadn't drunk any alcohol at all.

Upon hearing this, Cao Youqian's lips curled up slightly. "Grandmaster Uncle, please don't blame them. This sacred wine is extremely rare even in the Profound Heaven Continent. Even in the Dao-Seeking Academy, only elders and above can drink it."

"Since I'm new here, I don't have any good gifts to offer. How about I treat everyone to some drinks?"

Upon hearing this, everyone at the table showed excitement on their faces.

"Holy Son Cao is so magnanimous!"

"Holy Son Cao truly Holy Son of Dao Seeking; his magnanimity is beyond our reach!"

"..."

Cao Youqian had anticipated the current situation. He had investigated the Barbarian Continent before he came. Although the cultivators here were not exactly bloodthirsty, their skills in all arts and crafts, apart from cultivation, Faxiang in the Profound Continent.

Therefore, he planned to establish his authority first, and then give these guys some benefits.

In this way, he could establish himself at the Giant God Academy.

With a wave of his hand, he sent several jars of wine flying towards the crowd present.

Seeing this, the Heaven-Supporting Great Sage's impression of Cao Youqian improved dramatically. Although the young man was a bit arrogant, he was indeed a promising young man.

As for being arrogant, that's nothing. What kind of young person wouldn't be a young person if they weren't a little arrogant?

"Youqian, sit back down. Let's have a drink and chat."

"Promise."

After Cao Youqian finished speaking, he sat back down in his seat.

After several rounds of drinks...

Cao Youqian had already become familiar with everyone present, and they had long since put aside their prejudices against Cao Youqian, calling him "Holy Son" one after another.

The Heaven-Supporting Great Sage said, "Youqian, you haven't told us yet why you are so powerful?"

Upon hearing this, everyone finally remembered the main purpose of the banquet, and their eyes immediately fell on Cao Youqian.

ha...

After Cao Youqian put down the cup and slowly said, "My body-refining technique emphasizes two words: limits and boundaries."

"Oh?"

A King and Marquis with one swollen eye asked curiously, "May I ask where this limit lies?"

Cao Youqian explained unhurriedly, "You are all masters of body tempering, so you must have tried things like Five Elements Body Tempering and Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering, right?"

Everyone nodded; these were common Body Tempering methods in the Barbarian Continent.

"But I'm different from you all. I didn't start my body tempering with the simplest spiritual energy Body Tempering from the beginning. Instead, I directly Body Tempering with earth fire. Back then, I smelled of meat every day..."

As Cao Youqian spoke, he drank his wine, seemingly lost in deep memories.

When the people around heard about Cao Youqian's body-refining experience, their eyes widened in disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost.

Cao Youqian spoke for a while, when suddenly someone asked a question.

"Holy Son, may I ask a question? How did you comprehend the True Essence of the Great Dao while still in the Nirvana Realm?" asked a Great Sage with white hair and beard but a resolute face.

"Because I consumed a Great Sage Corpse Pill when I was in the Dao Integration Realm, and Body Tempering on the Extreme Yin Sacred Vein."

Cao Youqian said casually.

hiss...

Everyone present gasped, and their eyes showed more awe as they looked at Cao Youqian.

This guy is a real ruthless person!

Fortunately, he was from the same school as us; otherwise, Giant God Academy would probably have suffered a terrible fate today.

Looking at the stunned crowd, Cao Youqian continued, "I know that you all possess extraordinary bloodlines, but none of you pushed your physical training to its limit. Only by breaking through your own limits can you unleash your inner potential and awaken your bloodlines more thoroughly."

The room fell silent after he finished speaking.

After a short while, the Heaven-Supporting Great Sage clapped his hands and said, "Good, well said! It's true that only by breaking through limits can one unleash potential. It seems that everyone at the Giant God Academy has been living too comfortably before."

"The Heaven-Supporting Great Sage is absolutely right; we have indeed not tried hard enough."

Everyone echoed this sentiment.

Cao Youqian's words were like a key that opened a door for their cultivation path.

The Heaven-Supporting Great Sage turned his gaze to Cao Youqian: "Youqian, where do you plan to go for training this time?"

Cao Youqian cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to Grandmaster Uncle, this disciple is willing to follow your arrangements."

The Heaven-Supporting Great Sage Heavens stroked his beard and slowly said, "Our Barbarian Continent recently has two excellent training grounds: one for exterminating Devil Creature, and the other for suppressing monsters."

"Devil Creature?"

Cao Youqian asked curiously.

The Heaven-Supporting Great Sage shook his head. "They are not demonic cultivators, but descendants of Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon. The Barbarian Continent has always been chaotic, so there are many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon hiding Barbarian Continent, bewitching those dull-witted beings and making them their followers. Occasionally, they will even have offspring with those among their followers who have extraordinary bloodlines."

These descendants are called Devil Creature by us cultivators of the Barbarian Continent. These Devil Creature have extremely strong bodies, and only body-refining cultivators can withstand them. Over time, the Barbarian Continent has become a holy land for body-refining cultivators.

Cao Youqian then asked, "Grandmaster Uncle, does this mean that the Giant God Academy has already discovered the whereabouts of the Devil Creature?"

The Heaven-Supporting Great Sage nodded. "That's right. Half a month ago, our Giant God Academy received news that a force called the Fire God Sect had appeared in the western part of the Barbarian Continent. In fact, it was founded by Devil Creature, and our Giant God Academy is preparing to wipe out this force."

"Alright, then I'll participate in this trial and see if those Devil Creature ' bodies are tougher, or if my fists are tougher!"

Cao Youqian said with an expectant look on his face.

If Cao Youqian had said these words earlier, he would have been ridiculed by all the cultivators present.

However, after witnessing Cao Youqian's strength, no one dared to question him.

"Good."

The Heaven-Supporting Great Sage nodded in satisfaction.

"A month later, you will join the army to wipe out the Devil Creature of the Fire God Sect!"

Cao Youqian: "Yes!"

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Cao Youqian had already gotten used to life at the Giant God Academy.

He sparred with the Great Sage of the Giant God Academy every day, and the Great Sage of the Giant God Academy were never stingy in giving him guidance.

After each battle, the Great Sage would gain something, making Cao Youqian a Great Sage sought-after prize.

Early that morning, Cao Youqian led everyone to the square of the Giant God Academy to gather. When they arrived, the square was already packed with people.

The Giant God Academy was filled with physical cultivators, each of them tall and strong, including some half- Demon Cultivator, which broadened Cao Youqian's horizons.

Just as Cao Youqian was carefully observing the disciples of the Giant God Academy, two figures slowly flew in from the horizon...
