Chapter 384: The Cunning Scholar’s Countermeasure, Ye Yongxian Fumed
Seeing Ye Yongxian enter, everyone was initially stunned, then they all rushed in one after another.
The pill dao examination is particularly unique; even if one fails inside, there’s still a chance to see those pill formulas.
A pill formula that can trigger the crown phantom is indeed a great opportunity.
Outside the world, chaos ensued due to the pill formulas left by Chen Changsheng, while Chen Changsheng began his third test.
Texts!
…
“Please choose the method of examination.”
Looking at the options before him, Chen Changsheng found himself in a dilemma.
To become a true powerhouse, one needs not only formidable strength but also extensive knowledge of ancient and modern times.
Because a cultivator without foresight cannot travel far.
This third test is to verify whether the cultivator’s knowledge is broad.
However, the difficulty lies in the fact that Chen Changsheng’s knowledge is too vast. Each piece of information he holds is a shocking secret.
If he were to reveal them, the teachers at the Mountain River Academy would surely know, which wouldn’t be good for them.
But if he doesn’t share any experiences, Chen Changsheng can only evaluate some trivial matters, and then the space will make the judgment.
To win the title of Crown Master, minor things clearly won’t do.
But commenting on major events could very likely involve exposing his own plans.
After much deliberation, Chen Changsheng looked up at the space and cursed.
“Fine, you cunning scholar, you’re trying to extort me.”
“You set ten tests, none other than to enrich the foundation of the Mountain River Academy.”
“But you shouldn’t have forgotten I would come to your academy.”
“Since you want to hear secrets so much, I’ll tell you.”
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng conjured a brush out of thin air and wrote in the air.
“The Supreme Saint of the Mountain River Academy fears his wife, during Emperor Huangtian’s eighteenth year, Nalan Xingde was…”
“Bang!”
Before Chen Changsheng could finish writing, the words he had written earlier exploded.
At the same time, a line of ink-black text appeared before Chen Changsheng.
“Xiancha, I knew you would come, there are surprises waiting for you.”
Seeing the familiar text, Chen Changsheng smiled.
“I knew this cunning scholar would leave a countermeasure.”
“I said, such a large academy can’t just ignore it, it’s waiting here for me.”
“I’ll settle accounts with you later.”
With that, Chen Changsheng turned and left the space.
…
Outside the space.
“Hum~”
Another crown phantom appeared.
Seeing this scene, everyone was utterly stunned.
The texts examination is one of the less popular among the ten tests because if there truly are secrets, no one would reveal them.
Moreover, with the Supreme Saint’s knowledge, ordinary strategies and worldviews can hardly meet his standards.
What did Chen Changsheng say that earned him the crown in the texts examination?
When the crown phantom appeared, gold light also emitted from the other tests.
Clearly, someone else became the Crown Master in this recruitment event.
Unfortunately, none of the Crown Masters triggered the crown phantom.
“Whoosh!”
Chen Changsheng and Huafeng emerged simultaneously from two light gates.
Warm reminder: If you like this book, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing track next time.

Traditional Simplified
Following that, several more young people also walked out through other light gates.
Seeing the two golden crowns, the faces of many heavenly prodigies darkened.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng grinned and said.
“Becoming a Crown Master isn’t impressive; it only proves that you are stronger than ordinary cultivators, but you aren’t the strongest.”
“If you have the ability, follow my path.”
“After walking my path, you will discover the disparity of this world.”
“Hahaha!”
With that, Chen Changsheng laughed and walked towards another light gate.
Facing Chen Changsheng’s extremely mocking words, Huafeng didn’t hesitate and directly entered the dan dao assessment.
To defeat an enemy, one must understand them, at least know the gap between oneself and the enemy.
Huafeng led the way, followed by others.
Prodigies are proud, even if they know their enemies are strong, they will charge ahead without hesitation.
Because in their perception, although they are not invincible, they will certainly defeat those stronger than themselves.
…
“Tsk tsk!”
“These little kids are really stubborn, fighting with Chen Changsheng, their dao hearts will be damaged!”
Ye Yongxian, who was watching from the side, mocked.
Hearing this, Hu Potatoes calmly said, “As the former hegemon of the Three Thousand States, you should have the qualifications to compete with prodigies. Why did you give up?”
“Because I’m not interested. I saw the medicinal formulas in the dan dao assessment, and they are truly stunning.”
“Although I know a bit about dan dao, reaching this level isn’t something that can be achieved by accumulation alone.”
“My forte isn’t this, I won’t seek trouble unnecessarily.”
Facing Ye Yongxian’s straightforward admission, Hu Potatoes’ lips curled slightly upward.
“What about martial technique?”
“Even though you’ve been in once, don’t you want to spar with prodigy’s phantom?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Yongxian glanced at Hu Potatoes.
“You tricky little fox, don’t think I can’t deal with you just because of the existence of thunder tribulation.”
“The reason I can speak calmly with you is not because of your ‘Culinary Immortal’ title, but because of Chen Changsheng’s name.”
“The Three Thousand States lost, they lost to Chen Changsheng’s hands.”
“We lost wholeheartedly, so I let him off three times, but that doesn’t mean you have the right to act recklessly in front of me.”
“Playing tricks on me, you’re still too inexperienced.”
Facing Ye Yongxian’s threat, Hu Potatoes wasn’t angry but smiled instead.
“How did I play tricks on you, you can’t say such things randomly.”
“Heh!”
Ye Yongxian sneered and said, “I’ve lived for so long, I may not dare say much in other aspects, but I definitely know more than you.”
“When Emperor Huangtian waged war on the Ascension Road, it marked the beginning of the war between the two realms.”
“The first battle on the Ascension Road involved over ninety percent of the races in the Three Thousand States, including your Demon Clan.”
“At that time, Emperor Huangtian commanded three major armies: Tiger Cavalry, Shadow, and Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends.”
“However, besides these three major armies, there were three exceptionally fierce generals.”
“One was the Left Emperor of the Xuanwu Kingdom, another was the Silver Moon Wolf Emperor of the Night Moon Nation, and the last was the Invincible Daoist from the Shangqing View.”
“Among these three generals, Invincible Daoist’s boxing technique was the most ferocious.”
“When the Sea of Suffering first opened, relying on what appears to be not a high realm, he single-handedly killed 103,500 enemies and fought fiercely for a hundred battles without retreating half a step.”
“Yesterday, when I saw Chen Changsheng’s boxing technique, it seemed familiar, but I couldn’t recall where I had seen it.”
“After careful consideration, I realized that Chen Changsheng’s boxing technique is very similar to Invincible Daoist’s, almost as if they are from the same school.”
“Furthermore, based on my observations, Chen Changsheng’s boxing technique surpasses Invincible Daoist’s.”
“Letting me handle the martial technique, are you trying to let Chen Changsheng’s phantom beat me?”
