Chapter 1014
"Emperor Lu, welcome to my Tian Shu Academy."
"What exactly do you mean by cooperation?"
Dean Tian Shu immediately became eager.
He naturally knew about the Great Han Immortal Dynasty, which had recently been unparalleled in the entire Immortal Profound Continent, and was showing signs of becoming the number one hegemon on the Immortal Profound Continent!
The fact that an emperor of such power has come to visit suggests that there might be a great opportunity for cooperation between them!
Lu Yuan glanced around and saw that many disciples had already gathered around. He then smiled calmly and said:
"Dean Zijin, this is not the place to talk. Why don't we find a quiet place to discuss this in detail?"
"Alright! Emperor Lu, please!"
Dean Tian Shu knew that the main gate wasn't a place for conversation, so he politely treated Lu Yuan as an honored guest and personally welcomed him into the academy.
Tian Shu Academy is very large, and there seem to be quite a few disciples.
There must be at least a thousand students just from what Lu Yuan could see!
But yes.
The Tian Shu Academy is renowned far and wide, and is the number one academy on the Immortal Profound Continent. It is only natural that it is so prosperous!
On the way, Lu Yuan saw a huge tower standing in the center of the academy.
Surrounded by many disciples of Tian Shu Academy, they pointed at a stone tablet next to the tower with names engraved on it, occasionally letting out exclamations of surprise.
"Look! Senior Sister Zhu has broken the record for the seventh floor again!"
"My God... this tower-climbing speed is more than ten breaths faster than last time!"
"At this rate, I'm afraid Senior Sister Zhu will be able to clear the game perfectly this time, right?"
Lu Yuan was curious and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Upon seeing this, Dean Tian Shu immediately smiled and explained:
"Your Majesty, you may not know this, but this tower is the most precious treasure of our academy, and it is called the Heavenly Pivot Spirit Tower."
"The tower has nine levels, and the interior is engraved with the phantom images of the geniuses who have emerged from our academy throughout the ages. The higher you go, the stronger the phantom images become!"
"By challenging the illusory figures, disciples can hone their combat skills. Every disciple who can pass the first three levels is an exceptionally talented individual!"
Dean Tian Shu smiled and stroked his long, white beard.
These challenge towers are not rare treasures; most major powers have the capability to create them.
The main treasure trove is the phantom images of prodigies that remain inside for battle; this is the true source of the treasure in the Tower of Trials!
A pagoda is easy to build, but a genius is hard to find!
His nine-story pagoda represents nine super geniuses!
Only an academy like Tian Shu Academy, which has produced countless geniuses and possesses a strong reserve of prodigies, could create such a top-tier trial tower!
"So it's the Trial Tower..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded in understanding.
This thing isn't unusual; he's seen plenty of them before. He never expected that Tian Shu Academy would use it as a tool to train its disciples.
However, upon hearing Dean Tian Shu say that simply passing through the first three levels would already make one a person of extraordinary talent, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile slightly:
"Dean Zijin, you said that as long as you pass the first three levels, you're considered a genius. Isn't that a bit too high a standard?"
"What if you pass through nine levels and clear the game directly?"
Upon hearing this, Dean Tian Shu chuckled.
"Emperor Lu, you may not know this, but the phantom images of geniuses within the Heavenly Pivot Spirit Tower are all replicas of the strength of those geniuses at the same level back then!"
"The first three levels are alright, but from the fourth level onwards, they are all half-emperors!"
"And the ninth level is the phantom left behind by the ancestor of the Heavenly Pivot Immortal Dynasty, the Heavenly Pivot Emperor!"
"Anyway, no one has ever successfully completed the game in all these years..."
To know.
Their Tian Shu Academy's Trial Tower is not so easy to conquer.
Even the prodigy on the first level later became a renowned Immortal Lord at the peak of the continent!
These prodigies, even in their youth, possessed top-tier combat prowess among their peers.
How could they possibly be defeated so easily?
Not to mention the semi-emperors on the later levels, and even the phantoms left behind by the Heavenly Pivot Emperor himself!
Whoever manages to overcome this will surely grow into a Celestial Emperor in the future!
after all.
Being able to defeat a Celestial Emperor, even in his youth, is enough to prove that he is an exceptional individual!
Lu Yuan was surprised to find that the ninth floor of the Heavenly Pivot Spirit Tower was actually a phantom left behind by a powerful Immortal Emperor.
Oh right, he almost forgot.
This Tian Shu Academy is the successor to the previously destroyed Tian Shu Immortal Dynasty!
No wonder he's connected to the Heavenly Pivot Emperor!
At this moment, Dean Tian Shu suddenly spoke to Lu Yuan with great interest:
"Emperor Lu, I've long heard of your terrifying talent; you even won first place in the Heavenly Pride Competition!"
"Would you be interested in leaving a trial phantom within my pagoda?"
"If you agree, Tian Shu Academy will certainly reward you handsomely!"
Dean Tian Shu looked at Lu Yuan with hopeful eyes.
You should know that those who can win the first place in the Heavenly Pride Competition are all extraordinary individuals; they can be said to be the top geniuses of the current era!
If Lu Yuan were willing to leave a trial phantom inside the Heavenly Pivot Spirit Tower, then no matter what price he paid, he would definitely make a huge profit!
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan smiled.
I never expected that Dean Tian Shu would actually set his sights on me!
However, Lu Yuan did not refuse.
After all, he was going to take away the geniuses of the other academy and leave them with a trial phantom as a reward!
"Alright! Since Dean Zijin has invited me, I will accept!"
Dean Tian Shu was overjoyed when he saw Lu Yuan agree.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will soon present three and a half imperial artifacts as a token of my gratitude!"
Although Tian Shu Academy is wealthy and powerful, it still hurts to spend three and a half imperial artifacts.
But considering the possibility of getting Lu Yuan to agree to help, Dean Tian Shu had no choice but to reluctantly give up his offer!
After all, the other party readily agreed, so I can't be ungrateful, can I?
Lu Yuan didn't speak, he just waved his hand slightly.
He wouldn't even look at a semi-imperial artifact.
What he really wants are the talents of Tian Shu Academy!
However, since the dean brought up the matter of a thank-you gift, he might as well take the opportunity to express his own thoughts.
"Dean Zijin, a semi-imperial artifact is not indispensable to me. Would you mind giving me another gift in return?"
Upon hearing this, Dean Tian Shu was immediately taken aback.
"Other gifts?"
"What does Emperor Lu desire?"
Lu Yuan's lips curled slightly, and he smiled mysteriously:
"Dean Zijin, please allow me to keep you in suspense for now. We can discuss this further after I've preserved the illusory image of the trial!"
Although Dean Tian Shu was somewhat puzzled, not knowing what Lu Yuan wanted.
But when I think about how I've already taken out three and a half imperial artifacts, what else can't I give up?
You should know that even if he sold the entire Tian Shu Academy, it probably wouldn't be worth the value of three and a half imperial artifacts!
With this in mind, Dean Tian Shu readily agreed:
"Alright... let's talk properly after this is over!"
Dean Tian Shu seemed completely unconcerned about the matter.
But if he knew that Lu Yuan wanted the lifeblood of his Tian Shu Academy, I wonder if he would still have such an indifferent attitude now?
