Chapter 554: Summoned by the Dean

As soon as Gu Li and others returned to Tianzhao College, they noticed that the atmosphere in the college was a little strange, and their ears were filled with the sound of many people talking.

They vaguely heard everyone enthusiastically speculating about the origins of those mysterious people who suddenly appeared and why so many powerful people gathered in such a small place.

However, Gu Li and his companions had no intention of paying attention to these disturbing rumors.

As soon as he returned to his residence, he chose to practice in seclusion, devoting himself wholeheartedly to improving his own strength.

A few days passed like this, until one day, a disciple came and told them that the dean wanted to see them.

Su Yiyun couldn't help but look puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "What does the dean want to see us about?"

The disciple who delivered the message also looked confused, shook his head and said, "I don't know, please follow me."

Hearing this, Gu Li and the others looked at each other, then silently followed the disciple and walked towards the island where the dean was.

Along the way, Gu Li analyzed in a low voice: "It should be those three elders who told the dean what happened before."

After hearing this, Mu Yunxi felt a little worried and asked hurriedly, "Then what should we say?"

Gu Li thought for a moment and said calmly: "We can just say that we ascended from the lower realm."

They will also send people to investigate, so there is no need to hide it.

After all, we all have to go through the extradition process to ascend, and we will know about this once we investigate.

Soon, they arrived at where the dean was.

The disciple stepped forward and said respectfully, "Dean, the person has been brought here."

Then, Yu Tianzhen's voice came from inside the house in a steady voice: "Come in."

Gu Li and his companions gently pushed open the door and walked in in an orderly manner.

There was only a middle-aged man in the room at this time. He must be Yu Tianzhen, the dean of Tianzhao College.

Yu Tianzhen glanced at everyone and said calmly, "I have something to ask you."

Gu Li responded politely: "Please go ahead."

Yu Tianzhen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked directly: "What level have you reached in your cultivation now?"

In fact, with Yu Tianzhen's cultivation level, he could easily see everyone's cultivation level.

But he didn't know what kind of exquisite magic weapon these young people used to perfectly hide their cultivation level, making it difficult for him to spy on them, so he had to ask them in person.

Gu Li's heart moved, and he did not answer directly, but asked back: "Why are you asking this?"

Yu Tianzhen smiled slightly, and said with some concern in his tone: "I want to pay attention to the students' cultivation situation. After all, you have just joined the academy. I hope to have a more comprehensive understanding of you so that the academy can provide you with better cultivation guidance."

Gu Li raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile: "It shouldn't be that simple."

There are many students in the college, but the dean only pays attention to these new students. There must be another reason.

Yu Tianzhen shook his head slightly and said, “That’s nothing, it’s just that the major forces are about to start a big competition.

This competition is of a grand scale, and the Central Region will send someone to preside over it. If your cultivation can reach the Spiritual Sea Realm or above, I will allow you to participate."

Mu Yunxi looked puzzled and couldn't help asking, "What's the point of participating in this competition?"

Yu Tianzhen explained seriously, “In this competition, those who enter the top ten can freely choose the sect of their choice.

This is a great opportunity for you to enter a more powerful sect and gain better training resources and development space."

Gu Li raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Yu Tianzhen and asked, "Do you think we can beat the players from other forces?"

To be able to participate in such a large-scale competition between forces, the contestants sent by other forces must be extremely powerful.

Yu Tianzhen hesitated for a moment, and finally said truthfully: "I can't compare."

Although these young people in front of them have great potential, with the cultivation level they have currently demonstrated, it is indeed quite difficult for them to defeat the players carefully trained by other forces in the competition.

Feng Wuhen asked: "Then you still let us participate?"

Yu Tianzhen smiled slightly and said slowly: "You can't compete, but your guards can.

In this competition, the strength of the peak Spirit Infant Realm can kill the opponent instantly."

Having said this, he seemed to feel that it was not attractive enough, and after thinking for a while, he added: "As a reward, I will also give you a place in the competition and pay you a certain amount of crystals, which will also be helpful for your cultivation."

Gu Li instantly understood Yu Tianzhen's intention and asked, "Do you mean to let them apply for Tianzhao College?"

Yu Tianzhen nodded and said, "Well, as long as they participate in the competition as students of Tianzhao College."

Gu Li said with a hint of regret: "Unfortunately, they have already left."

Yu Tianzhen was slightly stunned and said in surprise: "So fast."

Gu Li explained: "Tianzhao College is not suitable for them."

Yu Tianzhen still did not give up and said, "But through this competition, if they can win, they can also choose a sect that is more suitable for them, which is extremely beneficial to their future development."

Gu Li said firmly: "They already have a place to go."

She didn't want to reveal too much about the Shadow Guards' trip to the Shenyuan Sect.

After hearing this, Yu Tianzhen became more curious and couldn't help asking, "Are you from the Central Region?"

Lin Yuchen shook his head and said truthfully: "No, we ascended from the lower realm."

"The lower world!" Yu Tianzhen was slightly shocked when he heard this.

He had previously sent people to the Central Domain to look for information about Gu Li and others, but found nothing. Now he finally understood that they were not from the Central Domain at all.

He looked Gu Li and the others up and down, and couldn't help but become more curious about their origins.

After ascending from the lower realm, one can possess so many opportunities and powerful strength.

Gu Li did not give up, but continued to ask: "Dean, does the minimum cultivation level to participate in the competition have to be the Spiritual Sea Realm?"

Yu Tianzhen waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you can go back and practice first."

Su Yiyun was a little unwilling and said, "Didn't you just tell us to participate?"

Yu Tianzhen's expression became serious, and he said, "Have you reached the Spiritual Sea Realm? Moreover, the Spiritual Sea Realm is only the lowest standard among the contestants sent by the major forces."

Mu Yunxi said unconvincedly: "Just because I don't have cultivation doesn't mean I don't have fighting power."

Yu Tianzhen still insisted on his own opinion and said, "This is a serious matter. You can come back to participate in a few years."

Gu Li was moved when he heard this. He raised his eyebrows and said, "How about you give us eight places and I ask two guards to join Tianzhao College?"
