Capítulo 2053: Chapter 2053: Want to See Yang Xiaotian’s Dao Heart Aptitude

“However, this child caused a disturbance with the Mad Demon and Evil Leader during the assessment!” Xin Lei, unable to contain his excitement, said to Bai Yan.

“What!” Bai Yan felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him.

He immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, took out a Message Talisman, and issued orders to the City Lord of the World City to fully activate the World Great Array.

At the same time, Bai Yan soared into the void, rushing towards the World City with all his might.

“To the World City!”

His entire body flickered with light, and with each flicker, he traversed a dimension of space-time.

In the blink of an eye, he had crossed through many layers of space-time.

Xin Lei, realizing the urgency, transformed into lightning and vanished into the void, his speed equally reaching the pinnacle.

At this moment, the Mad Demon and Evil Leader, who had witnessed Yang Xiaotian’s possession of Innate Buddha Force and Innate Demon God Power, were contemplating whether to eliminate Yang Xiaotian when suddenly, the World City erupted in radiant light, and numerous beams shot up from the ground.

A total of one million beams surged directly into the Vault Of Heaven.

This invoked the deepest forces within the Vault Of Heaven, and an infinite power descended like a fountain, enveloping the entire World City.

In that instant, all living beings within the World City felt themselves locked by an invisible and formidable power.

Under Bai Yan’s orders, the World Great Array was finally fully activated!

Observing the fully activated World Great Array, the Mad Demon and Evil Leader furrowed their brows.

Even with their immense power, they did not dare to disregard the fully activated World Great Array.

This World Great Array connected the space-time forces of hundreds of thousands of empires on the World Continent.

After a shifting expression, the Mad Demon smiled at Yang Xiaotian and said, “My offer will always stand. As long as you wish, you can accept me as your teacher at any time!”

“I am willing to devote all my strength and resources to teach you!”

With that said, he transformed into a sea of demons and vanished above the Assessment Square.

The Evil Leader also said to Yang Xiaotian, “If in the future you wish to become my disciple, just shout three times into the void, and I will know.”

After speaking, he disappeared from where he stood.

No one expected that the Mad Demon and Evil Leader would leave so abruptly.

Watching the two depart, the crowd had mixed feelings.

Elder Chen, whose entire body had been tense, finally relaxed, as if escaping death.

If the Mad Demon and Evil Leader had acted, most people here would surely have died, even with the World Great Array fully activated, it couldn’t have completely stopped the two of them.

Seeing the Mad Demon and Evil Leader leave, Yang Xiaotian furrowed his brow, as he sensed two dark forces had been planted within him when they left.

Obviously, when they departed, they had left an invisible prohibition within his body.

If these prohibitive powers could not be removed, his every move would be under their surveillance.

At that moment, hundreds of strong presences tore through the void, announcing the arrival of Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, Luo Chong, and other elders and high-ranking members of the World Academy.

From afar, Elder Chen saw Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, Luo Chong, and others arriving and was utterly shocked.

Usually, these elders were in deep retreat and rarely appeared; even he had little chance to meet any of them. He hadn’t anticipated that Yang Xiaotian’s emergence would draw so many elders here.

This was nearly half of the elders from the World Academy!

At that moment, the Innate Buddha Force and Innate Demon God Power within Yang Xiaotian had yet to retract. From afar, Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, Luo Chong, and others could all see Yang Xiaotian.

Witnessing Yang Xiaotian’s Innate Buddha Force and Innate Demon God Power, the crowd was greatly astonished.

They too hadn’t expected the Innate Buddha Force and Innate Demon God Power to coexist within one person.

How could this be accomplished?

Even with the Fourteenth Defying Heaven’s Top Tier Holy Body, it shouldn’t be possible for the Innate Buddha Force and Innate Demon God Power to coexist, right?

While Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, and others were rapidly approaching, a flickering light in the distance approached the World City with astonishing speed, even faster than Xiao Zheng and others.

Soon, this figure arrived on the scene before Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, and others.

The figure halted in mid-air above the Assessment Square.

It was a middle-aged man wearing a white brocade robe, with a white flame symbol at his brow.

The middle-aged man had no aura fluctuations.

Yet, Elder Chen, upon seeing the middle-aged man, trembled all over and excitedly bowed deeply: “Chen Yi greets the Dean!”

The Dean!

Many of the strong from various factions and disciples who had never seen Bai Yan were shocked, then became ecstatically excited, kneeling down one after another.

“Greetings, Honorable Dean!”

The sound of excited cries rose and fell.

Bai Yan nodded at Chen Yi and the others, his gaze falling on Yang Xiaotian, visibly astonished by the Innate Buddha Force and Innate Demon God Power within him.

“Greetings, Dean.” Yang Xiaotian also bowed with clasped fists.

Bai Yan, looking at Yang Xiaotian, showed excitement and joy, then helped Yang Xiaotian up: “Child, you have finally emerged!”

Child, you have finally emerged!

This sentence revealed how much hardship and waiting he had endured over tens of thousands of years.

Nonetheless, at this moment, all the waiting and perseverance were worth it.

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

Child?

This was their first meeting, and the World Academy Dean Bai Yan was already affectionately calling this young man “child”?

It showed how much he valued and “favored” him.

At this moment, Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, Luo Chong, as well as the World City Lord and others had all arrived.

Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, and others, all being influential figures on the World Continent, their simultaneous arrival gave the attendees a feeling of breathlessness.

“Honorable Dean, do you think we should proceed with the second stage of the assessment?” Cheng Zhan, the Artifact Refining Hall elder who was previously displeased with Yang Xiaotian, spoke up.

The others dared not speak.

Cheng Zhan was not only the elder of the Artifact Refining Hall but also the top-ranked Artifact Refiner on the World Continent.

Bai Yan glanced at Cheng Zhan, then addressed Yang Xiaotian: “Next, we will conduct the second stage of the assessment. What do you think?”

Hearing Bai Yan asking for Yang Xiaotian’s opinion, everyone’s expressions were subtle.

“I leave it entirely to your decision, Dean.” Yang Xiaotian replied with clasped fists.

“Good, then let’s proceed with the second stage of the assessment now!” Bai Yan said with a smile, leading Yang Xiaotian into the Assessment Hall.

The first stage of the assessment took place on the plaza outside the hall, testing the Sacred Body talent.

While the second stage took place inside the hall, testing the talent of the Dao Heart.

Both the Sacred Body and Dao Heart were the two most critical criteria for the superpowers in the Holy Realm when assessing disciples.

The World Academy equally used the Sacred Body and Dao Heart as criteria for assessments.

The first stage was hosted by Elder Chen for Yang Xiaotian, while the second stage was hosted by Bai Yan and a group of elders from the World Academy.

Xiao Zheng, Teng Si, Cheng Zhan, and other elders followed Bai Yan into the hall.

Others remained outside the hall.

The hall doors were open, allowing a view of the inside.

Everyone was eager to see Yang Xiaotian’s Dao Heart talent.

Bai Yan was particularly interested in what Dao Heart the bearer of the Fourteenth Defying Heaven’s Top Tier Holy Body, Yang Xiaotian, would condense.
