Time continued to pass. Only a dozen or so new disciples were left on the stone pillars of the second level of the Ancestral Land, still searching for the Dao-Spirit Realm.

On the plaza, the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance had even more senior disciples than the new budding disciples. There were more than fifteen of them.

The weakest among them all had the strength of a middle Life Sea martial artist.

As for the other three, they were at the peak of the Life Sea. Even within the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance, they could still be considered experts.

"Li Lin, where is the Luo Qing from your Liu Alliance? I remember that he was the one who protected that Xue Tu, right? Why haven't they entered yet? " The group of people from the Desolate Alliance who were protecting Chen Xuantong as he entered the Ancestral Land asked in a mocking tone.

Although the Desolate Alliance and the Liu Alliance weren't opposing each other, they weren't always in harmony in order to compete for the new disciples.

"Hmph, Luoyang, there's no need for you to worry about the Liu Alliance. You should take care of Chen Xuantong. There are only a few days left. If he returns empty-handed, Chen Huang might not let you off." Among the Liu Alliance group, the young man called Li Lin frowned and snorted coldly.

However, even though Li Lin had said those words, there was doubt in his eyes. The Liu Alliance had entered the Ancestral Land only with the two of them at the Great Circle of Life Sea. Why had they not entered the second layer of the Ancestral Land yet?

Could it be that Xue Tu had failed to establish his life sea?

Li Lin frowned as a guess emerged in his mind.

"Hehe, this piece of trash is really calm. He actually has the heart to seek the Dao Soul Disciple." Behind Li Lin, a young man from the Liu Alliance looked at Ye Hao, who was sitting on top of the stone pillar with his eyes closed, with a face full of ridicule.

"Since so many of us are staying here, we might as well kill our way up to the Dao Pillar." A young man from the Desolate Alliance said impatiently.

"Attack the Dao Pillar? If you can do it, just give it a try. " Beside him, another member of the Desolate Alliance laughed in a strange manner, "The Dao Pillar's defenses are something even Dao Soul Realm experts cannot break. We can only wait for him to come down."

"Hmph, there are only a few days left until the one month deadline. When that time comes, this piece of trash must come down from the teleportation array. As long as he disappears from the Dao Pillar, it would only take a moment to finish him off."

"Wait patiently. The chief has specifically instructed us not to let this kid leave the ancestral grounds this time."

Swoosh!

While everyone was still in the midst of their discussion, a dazzling silver light shot down from the sky like a meteor, falling toward the top of a stone pillar in the blink of an eye.

"Dao Soul Summoning!" "It's Chen Xuantong!"

"Although that Soul Realm technique's aura is inferior to the Profound Sky Four Arts, it is still very extraordinary."

The commotion above caused Luo Yang and the other Desolate Alliance members to relax a little as they revealed happy expressions and said.

In the blink of an eye, the silver light entered Chen Xuantong's body. On top of the pillar, his tightly shut eyes suddenly opened. After sensing it with his heart, he could not help but shake his head, but he was not too disappointed.

Although the Dao-Spirit Faction he obtained wasn't as powerful as the four Celestial Arts, it was still very impressive and he was quite satisfied.

Chen Xuantong's white robe fluttered as he flew down. After clasping his fists towards the group of people from the Desolate Alliance, he looked towards Ye Hao, who was at the top of the stone pillar, with a cold and mocking look in his eyes.

Time flew. Another day passed.

On the second level of the Ancestral Land, there were already less than ten new disciples remaining. Those who had obtained a Dao Soul Art hurriedly left in fear when they saw the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance's groups.

Boom!

Suddenly, the wind and lightning in the sky began to stir. A streak of bluish-purple light, surrounded by traces of lightning, crashed down onto Han Yitian's body.

"That's the Wind and Thunder Scripture's Dao Soul Summoning!"

"This Han Yitian …" "It really is extraordinary!"

"..."

Han Yitian suddenly opened his eyes. His clothes fluttered in the wind as lightning flashed in his eyes and instantly disappeared.

He exhaled a long breath as his gaze swept across the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance's members below. Then, he glanced at Ye Hao, narrowed his eyes, and floated down.

"Junior Martial Brother Han, congratulations!"

"Junior Martial Brother Han's talent is extraordinary. His future accomplishments will definitely be limitless!"

"..."

Han Yitian's innate strength was definitely ranked first amongst this year's new budding disciples. It was highly valued by the experts of the academy. Even Bai Ningxue was slightly inferior to him.

Now that he had obtained the Dao Soul Summoning of the Book of Thunderwind, his future accomplishments were limitless. Entering the inner courtyard and even being ranked on the Proclamation of Azure Sky were certain things.

Even the members of the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance didn't want to offend such a Heaven's Pride. They all cupped their hands and congratulated him.

However, Han Yitian seemed to turn a deaf ear to the congratulatory words. He calmly walked to the stone pillar where Ye Hao was standing, took out a long sword emitting a terrifying energy wave, and directly stabbed it into the ground. Then, he sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and silently waited for Ye Hao's end.

This scene caused the eyes of everyone in the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance to shrink. Their bodies shook as disbelief surfaced on their faces.

Could it be that Han Yitian didn't see that the reason they were waiting here was for Ye Hao?

Or could it be that Han Ya Tianming knew of their goal, but for that trash, he didn't hesitate to make enemies with the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance?

The crowd was shocked, and couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Junior Martial Brother Han, you should leave as soon as possible." After a moment of silence, Li Lin narrowed his eyes and spoke with a deep voice.

"Hehe, Junior Martial Brother Han, obtaining one of the Four Arts of the Heavenly Mystery, the Wind Lightning Codex, is indeed extraordinary. However, there are some things that should not be interfered with." Luo Yang also furrowed his brows. The aura of the great circle of the Life Sea gradually emanated out, as if reminding Han Yitian that there was still a huge gap between the two of them.

Brother Han, there is no need for you to waste any more time. A feminine smile emerged on Chen Xuantong's face.

Although Han Yitian was talented, he was still at the early Life Sea realm. There were three people at the Great Circle of Life Sea and more than ten experts that were beyond the early Life Sea realm. Chen Xuantong dreaded Han Yitian somewhat, but in the end, he did not fear Han Yitian at all.

However, Han Yitian didn't even bother to open his eyes in response to their 'good intentions'. Instead, he waited for Ye Hao in silence.

Although Han Yitian didn't say anything, he had long since treated Ye Hao as someone of the same generation. The two of them had been living in the Flame Spirit World together, and during this period of time, his physical strength had greatly increased due to following Ye Hao within the Flame Spirit World. He had obtained a massive amount of Flame Essence.

Moreover, it was Ye Hao who had taken the risk to get him the cave medallion in the Ancestral Land.

If the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance wanted to make a move against him, Han Yitian wouldn't be able to just leave.

Han Yitian knew that Ye Hao was very strong, but there were too many people left behind by the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance. Three of them were at the great circle of the Life Sea while the rest were at the late stage of the Life Sea.

Although he had just entered the Life Sea realm, he had opened up the Earth rank Life Sea. He was confident that he could deal with a few warriors at the late stage of the Life Sea realm.

As for the Liu Alliance and the Desolate Alliance members, when they saw the unmoved and unresponsive Han Yitian, a dangerous glint flashed across their eyes as a hidden killing intent emerged. However, in the end, they suppressed it.

This year's number one new budding disciple was highly regarded by the experts of the academy. If one died in the ancestral land without knowing the reason, the academy would definitely investigate everything thoroughly. At that time, no one could guarantee that this matter would not be exposed.

In the end, the members of the Desolate Alliance and the Liu Alliance coldly snorted and no longer wasted their breath. Even with the interference of Han Yitian, they were still able to instantly turn Ye Hao into nothing.

As for whether or not they would offend Han Yitian, the crowd was even more unworried. After all, even if Han Yitian were to become a part of the Proclamation of Azure Sky, Liu Feiyang and Chen Huang would still be suppressing him.

With this thought in mind, they no longer looked friendly when they looked at Han Yitian. Instead, their eyes carried an ice-cold, mocking glint.

As for Ye Hao, no one had any other thoughts about him. They had already treated him as a dead man.

At the same time, Ye Hao, who was standing at the top of the stone pillar, had a reaction to everything that was happening below him.

Finally, a vast amount of purple gas appeared in his perception.
