Chapter 507 (2/2)
”I have always known of his extraordinary talent. But I have never expected him to be this remarkable. Father, we have to take this seriously. We can't allow him to keep growing,” said Di Lin with a sigh.
”He is indeed worthy of being Xiang Yangzhan's son. Alright, this ends here for you. I will take charge of this. He won't be able to leave the Bloodsin City alive,” said Di Batian, still as calm as ever. ”It's time all of you start preparing for the Dragon Phoenix Academy's entrance test. Get ready. Your elder brothers had all missed their chance to join the academy. No matter what, the three of you need to enter the Dragon Phoenix Academy, even if you have to join as an ordinary disciple.”
”Don't worry, Father. We will definitely be able to join the Dragon Phoenix Academy,” promised the three.
Di Lin continued, ”Father, do you want me to deal with Xiang Shaoyun? I know him best, so it won't be hard for me to kill him.”
Di Batian waved his hand. ”No. Your only priority is to become a core disciple of the Dragon Phoenix Academy and work with your two brothers to make a name for yourselves. After accomplis.h.i.+ng that, what is there to fear about Xiang Shaoyun? Even if Xiang Yangzhan himself returns, the only thing awaiting him is death.”
”Father, Xiang Yangzhan is still alive?” Di Tong asked, a complicated look on his face when he recalled the previous sect master.
”Who knows? Although I'm inclined to believe that both he and Shangguan Wusheng had perished together, that fellow had never been one to die easily. But don't worry. Even if he lives, he won't be much of a threat to us anymore. Di Tong, Di Shang, both of you may leave first. Di Lin, stay,” said Di Batian.
A complicated look surfaced on the faces of Di Tong and Di Shang. After saluting their father, they both withdrew from the hall. After the two left, Di Lin said, ”Father, my two elder brothers will think that you are biased with what you just did.”
”So what? It's perfectly understandable why they would have such thoughts right now. But they will change their minds in a few years,” said Di Batian. He then took out an item and handed it to Di Lin. ”Take this and keep it well. After entering the academy, take it out and search for an item according to the instructions in there. With that thing, I will be able to reach an even higher realm in the future, and it will even be possible for the Ziling Sect to become a tier-8 sect.”
Di Lin did not open the package to see what was inside. He stowed it away and said deferentially, ”Yes, Father. I won't disappoint you.”
”Good. This is very important and no mistakes are allowed. If your two brothers fail to pa.s.s the entrance test, get them into the academy as your followers instead. Although that will be humiliating to them, they should still be grateful that they can enter the Dragon Phoenix Academy,” said Di Batian.
Evidently, Di Lin was a special-recruit disciple of the Dragon Phoenix Academy. The so-called special-recruit disciples were made up of insanely talented freaks. Just from the fact that Di Lin was qualified to be recruited as a special-recruit disciple, one could say that he was probably no less talented than Xiang Shaoyun. After all, a great example of a special-recruit disciple was Yu Caidie, who similarly did not have to take any tests to join the Dragon Phoenix Academy.
”Yes, Father,” Di Lin said. ”Father, Xiang Shaoyun once told me that he has a nine-star physique. Back then, I thought he was bluffing, but it looks like he was telling the truth after all. Be careful when dealing with him, Father.”
Only now did some emotions show on Di Batian's face.
