Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 301 - 248: True Monarch Yang Hao, Celestial Heart Saint Heir!

After achieving the status of Nascent Soul True Monarch, True Monarch Zanyuan immediately announced another significant piece of news to the public.

He would take up the position of tutor of the Evil Extermination Department at Evil Extermination University and compete for the vacant post of deputy director of the department.

The coveted deputy director seat attracted not only Taibai Phecda but also another candidate, True Monarch Yang Hao, a True Monarch of Sword Dao from the Evil Extermination Sword Sect who broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage five years ago.

On the same day that Taibai Phecda declared his bid for the deputy director position, True Monarch Yang Hao also high-profiled his announcement of becoming a new tutor in the Evil Extermination Department.

Compared to Taibai Phecda, True Monarch Yang Hao's resume is equally impressive and formidable.

He has already led conquests of three medium-sized worlds occupied by the Demon Dao, and his self-founded Yang Hao Sword Sect is a renowned major sect throughout the Federation.

In contrast to Taibai Phecda, who is notorious for failing at whatever he attempts, Yang Hao presents a stark contrast.

However, Taibai Phecda has a huge advantage—his youth.

He is fully thirty years younger than True Monarch Yang Hao!

The age at which he formed his Nascent Soul was twenty-five years younger than when True Monarch Yang Hao did.

Twenty-five years may not seem like much to Nascent Soul True Monarchs, who can live for over a thousand years.

But this involves a matter of potential.

The modern Cultivation Realm generally believes that cultivators who form their Nascent Soul before the age of fifty are far more likely to achieve the Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarch stage than those who do so after fifty.

The twenty-five-year age gap positions Taibai Phecda as part of the former group and True Monarch Yang Hao as part of the latter.

Thus, even though Taibai Phecda is a newly appointed True Monarch, he remains a strong contender for the deputy director position.

The competition between the two can be considered evenly matched.

The final decision on who will secure the role of deputy director will be based on transparent judging standards.

The assessment will be determined through the teaching performance of the two Evil Extermination Department tutors in the upcoming academic year.

In this assessment standard, high cultivation level is not essential, nor is high potential; everything returns to the essence of being a teacher.

Regarding this, neither the public nor internal circles have any objections.

Everyone, both inside and outside, fervently discusses which excellent freshmen of the Evil Extermination Department will be recruited by which tutor.

After all, having two Nascent Soul tutors is quite a faculty strength, even surpassing that of the neighboring Sword Dao Department!

Even students from the Top Ten Preparatory Classes can only hope to be selected by a Nascent Soul tutor and have no room to be choosy.

Su Yuan, a staunch direct disciple of Taibai Phecda, naturally once again enters the public eye.

First in the Phecda Class (Special Advancement Class) at Taihua High School, first in the Top Ten Preparatory Classes, top scorer in Taihua City's college entrance exam, founder of the Primordial Sect.

These numerous titles quickly make the public realize that Su Yuan is undoubtedly the top new student under the college entrance examination rules!

And he will certainly choose True Monarch Zanyuan as his mentor!

This is perhaps True Monarch Zanyuan's biggest reliance in the competition for the deputy director position.

Even excluding Su Yuan, Taibai Phecda also has the experience of teaching preparatory class students.

As long as there are students from the preparatory class choosing the Evil Extermination Department, nine out of ten are likely to fall under Taibai Phecda's wing.

With this perspective, Taibai Phecda becomes the more advantageous side, while True Monarch Yang Hao becomes the challenger.

Then the question arises, does True Monarch Yang Hao have a student who can rival Su Yuan?

His son might qualify, but he graduated from university a long time ago and can't compete with Su Yuan on the same stage.

However, when discussions were quietly pessimistic about True Monarch Yang Hao, that rumored Saint Son who would descend upon Evil Extermination University also finally had confirmed information.

The true identity of this Saint Son is the third son of the Peak Nascent Soul Cultivator, Nine Saints True Monarch.

He is called the Celestial Heart Saint Son.

This Saint Son chose the Evil Extermination Department.

And his choice of mentor is none other than True Monarch Yang Hao.

Thus, the balance of victory between True Monarch Zanyuan and True Monarch Yang Hao is once again equalized.

There is even a subtle edge favoring the latter.

Unknown to the outside, which is unaware that Su Yuan possesses a Divine Spirit Root, paper data suggests that the Celestial Heart Saint Son surpasses Su Yuan in both talent and cultivation.

If not for Su Yuan's close relationships with the Celestial Hunting Saintess and his success in bringing her into the Primordial Sect, public opinion would already have been one-sided.

Amid this storm of online and offline discussion, as one of the people involved, Su Yuan is naturally not idle.

He, along with Chen Nuoyi, Qi Hanyan, and Xiao Kong, formed the Taibai Phecda Disciple Group, appearing in various live broadcasts and helping to boost sales of major Primordial Sect products significantly.

From time to time, Su Yuan invites Taibai Yuxi for a cameo.

Every time the White-haired Lolita appears, it causes the live stream's popularity to surge.

However, unfortunately, the White-haired Lolita has yet to receive the official title of Saintess.

The reason is simple: the Celestial Hunting Saintess and the Celestial Heart Saint Son obtained their titles not only because their fathers are Nascent Soul True Monarchs but also because their fathers are Realm Masters.

The titles of Saintess and Saint Son, in fact, are akin to Realm Master heirs.

Once Taibai Phecda becomes a Realm Master, Taibai Yuxi will naturally have a title.

Regarding the various questions in the live broadcast and commentary section about whether Su Yuan is confident in defeating the Celestial Heart Saint Son, Su Yuan consistently gives ambiguous responses.

Although he has decided to help his mentor compete for the deputy director position, he does not have the personality to boast or celebrate prematurely.

Whether he can outperform the Celestial Heart Saint Son in the upcoming academic year remains to be seen in person.

Furthermore, fighting is not Su Yuan's desire.

He hopes more to coax the Celestial Heart Saint Son into the Primordial Sect and have him work for him.

Amid these undercurrents, on the morning of August 31st, Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi, Qi Hanyan, and Xiao Kong set off together for the Evil Extermination University City.

The closer they got to the University City, the more freshmen they encountered, even seeing many Golden Core Stage parents dropping off their children.

Just today, Su Yuan saw more Master Golden Cores than he had seen in his entire life before.

It can only be said that the Ten Great Immortal Sects indeed live up to their reputation as the highest educational institutions in the Blue Star Federation, gathering nearly all the offspring of prestigious families.

However, the most dazzling presence in the entire venue was none other than Su Yuan and the four Foundation Establishment freshmen.

While there may be many freshmen at Evil Extermination University, there are definitely no more than five Foundation Establishment freshmen!

Among them, Su Yuan's group occupied four-fifths, drawing significant attention.

Whether new students or Golden Core Stage parents of new students, they all regarded Su Yuan's group with envy and admiration upon seeing them.

Chen Nuoyi and Xiao Kong were not particularly moved by this, but Su Yuan and Qi Hanyan couldn't help but stand a little taller.

Not long after, the four of them entered the new student registration area of the University City.

The welcoming tutors and senior students saw the four early on and immediately gave friendly smiles.

But at that moment, waves of exclamations suddenly arose from behind Su Yuan.

Turning back, they saw an even more luxurious custom flying ship descending from the sky, more extravagant than a Mai Bahe.

Rolls of air waves radiated outward, making the clothing of people around flap noisily.

And on the ship's door, the words "Celestial Heart" were boldly inscribed in spiritual runes!

The fifth Foundation Establishment freshman, and recognized as the strongest visible Foundation Establishment freshman, the Celestial Heart Saint Son, had arrived!
