Cao Ya and his group entered the academy, while many people watched with surprise in their eyes.
The super geniuses in the academy, such as Princess Yaoyue, Wang Xi, Lü Tuo, and Feng Xingtian, are not only exceptionally strong and talented, but also have remarkable backgrounds. They are either princesses of ancient dynasties or the jewels and prodigies of immortal families.
They each witnessed this scene from their respective caves, and also saw the ordinary-looking man in the golden passage. Judging from his age, he was not very old, and he was a Heavenly God Realm cultivator.
Immediately, their expressions changed. Some turned grim, filled with murderous intent, while others were filled with fighting spirit, and still others observed with great interest.
However, they were all curious about who that man was, that the Grand Elder had personally come out to greet him and bring him back to the academy.
It should be noted that the Grand Elder is one of the strongest supreme beings in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and few have been able to rival him throughout countless millennia.
The elder, who had seen it all before, would not easily step forward; instead, he would leave it to someone else in the academy.
What qualifications does that man have that warrant the Grand Elder's intervention?
Inside the golden passage, Cao Ya also noticed those gazes, but didn't care, and roughly understood Meng Tianzheng's intentions.
Although he is over a hundred years old, he is still considered a member of the new generation. In that case, it would be good to give him some challenges, find some opponents, and encourage and inspire each other.
The Grand Elder and Wang Changsheng were like this.
"Cao Ya, some people might come looking for you in a while. Don't back down then," the elder said with a smile. He trusted Cao Ya on this point because Cao Ya's combat strength was beyond imagination.
Both being at the Celestial God Realm, Meng Tianzheng asked himself if he could match the combat power of the Self-Slaying Realm.
“I don’t care if it damages their resolve,” Cao Ya replied.
"Haha, that's the confidence I've been looking for," the elder said.
There was another purpose behind it. Cao Ya had created a new method, but if he was to be cultivated, Cao Ya had to demonstrate the advantages of the new method and give people hope, even if it was just a very faint glimmer.
In this way, the Grand Elder was able to better persuade the higher-ups in the academy to open up all the books and allow Cao Ya to browse them at will, and also invest in many sacred medicines, so that Cao Ya had no worries at all.
For the Grand Elder, individual combat strength is far less important than a complete and up-to-date cultivation system.
Of course, the Grand Elder did not insist that Cao Ya's new method could stand alongside the ancient and modern methods. If it possessed some of the abilities of the ancient and modern methods, it would be worthy of the Heavenly God Academy's wholehearted cultivation.
It should be understood that the creation of the ancient and modern methods was the culmination of the efforts of countless powerful individuals over millions of years.
Cao Ya, on the other hand, is creating a cultivation system all by himself, and the latter is far more difficult than the former.
"By the way, there might be some unexpected changes along the way, so be careful," the elder suddenly added.
Then he smiled and transmitted his voice:
"Don't worry, my main body is back. I can handle any changes, but I'll need your cooperation."
Cao Ya paused for a moment, seemingly lost in thought.
Afterwards, the Grand Elder arranged a cave dwelling for Cao Ya, and then contacted the academy's higher-ups to hold a meeting to discuss the matter.
When the higher-ups of the Heavenly God Academy learned the news from the Grand Elder, they were all shocked. If the Grand Elder hadn't said it himself, they would have thought it was a joke.
The Grand Elder's expression was solemn, without a trace of joking.
Immediately, everyone became serious.
After confirming repeatedly, they received an extremely earnest message: the Grand Elder guaranteed it. This made everyone even more solemn, realizing that the matter was of great importance and should be seriously discussed.
Meanwhile, news that the First Elder Meng Tianzheng had personally brought back a celestial being quickly spread, causing a great stir and arousing great curiosity among countless people.
After a period of investigation, the Changsheng Wang family also confirmed that the man was Cao Ya, who had destroyed one of their slave ships.
Undoubtedly, the Grand Elder's move was seen as a provocation against the Longevity Royal Family, and many members of the Royal Family were making a fuss, expressing their intention to attack the Heavenly God Academy.
Of course, this is just talk. Tian Shen Academy is no pushover either, and it is no weaker than the Wang family. This move is more about demanding benefits from the academy.
However, all of these were bluntly rejected by the higher-ups of the Heavenly God Academy. Selling slaves was nothing to talk about.
Moreover, Cao Ya is currently in a very important position. Anyone who is against Cao Ya will be an enemy of the Heavenly God Academy!
With the Grand Elder in charge, the Heavenly God Academy was full of confidence and had no fear of the Changsheng Wang family, even if Wang Changsheng himself came.
This infuriated the Wang family, who sent a message to Wang Xi, the pampered daughter of the Wang family in the academy, to challenge Cao Ya, severely defeat him, and bring him back to the dust, thus restoring face to the Wang family.
The Changsheng Royal Family didn't really care about a slave ship. What they cared about was that Cao Ya had embarrassed them. This was a rare occurrence, and in the past, it was mostly people at the Escape One Realm or Supreme Realm. What right did a mere Heavenly God Realm person have to embarrass the Changsheng Royal Family?
However, Wang Xi rejected the Wang family's request. At present, the academy is full of undercurrents and various rumors are circulating. Wang Xi has also heard about them and is both surprised and curious.
The person who sent the message was not a major figure in the Wang family, so Wang Xi could still confront them directly. Otherwise, no matter how unwilling she was, Wang Xi would have had to accept it.
The Wang family of Changsheng raised her, not so that she would act like a spoiled princess, only accepting benefits and not taking responsibility.
Wang Xi was also aware that if Cao Ya really created a new method, then there would be countless people challenging him.
Whether the new method will work depends mainly on actual combat, and as a figure like the Dao Ancestor, Cao Ya is related to the quality of the new method.
Wang Xi thought to herself that even without her taking action, others would inevitably be unable to restrain themselves and would take the initiative to attack Cao Ya. At that time, she could take a look at the innovative method Cao Ya had created and see what kind of person he was, who had actually created a new path of cultivation at the Heavenly God Realm!
After all the news spread, people understood why the Grand Elder had personally come out to greet Cao Ya.
However, many people are skeptical of the so-called new law, disbelieving it and believing Cao Ya to be a fame-seeker who should be expelled and even purged. It cannot be ruled out that the Wang family might be involved, or that some hidden foreign spy might be spreading rumors to pressure Cao Ya and embarrass him.
What new laws could a god possibly create? That's utter nonsense!
A small number of people who hold onto hope believe that it is at most an ordinary path of cultivation. They might be able to achieve the Heavenly God Realm, the Void Dao Realm, and the Self-Severing Realm, but the Escape Realm, the Supreme Realm, and so on are probably hopeless, let alone becoming an immortal.
Some cultivators even considered challenging Cao Ya and thwarting this fraudulent charlatan.
Clearly, they didn't believe in any new law and thought Cao Ya was just a figurehead.
Cao Ya wasn't very clear about these things, because he didn't know anyone at the Heavenly God Academy.
However, he could roughly guess it.
But he didn't care at all, because he had the confidence.
Cao Ya was quite satisfied with the cave dwelling arranged by the Grand Elder.
The mountains are majestic, the purple aura is overwhelming, and the auspicious light is surging. It is clear at a glance that this is a rare pure land on earth.
The mountains here are formed from fragments of ancient stars, brimming with spiritual energy and divine matter, making the cultivation environment a thousand times better than the outside world.
“If you cultivate here, even a pig can become a god,” Cao Ya murmured, quite amazed.
