Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 197: The Meeting

The Heavenly Dao Protection—as the name implied—is a form of absolute protection granted to the top 30 Heavenly Chosen that are selected during this trial. As a result, from the Supernatural Realm all the way to the Primordial Spirit Realm, all these Heaven Chosens are excused from death.

No matter the circumstances, as long as they are in the Myriad Emperor World, they cannot die during that period of time. Even if a Supreme Realm True Monarch were to attack any of these Heavenly Chosens, they would not succeed.

The reason for that is that they are under the protection of Heavenly Dao itself. Unless someone has the power to overwhelm the might of Heavenly Dao, then these geniuses will be fine. Because they are the true chosens of Heaven and Earth. As a result of this, after the Heaven Chosen Worthy Trial, the world would turn into chaos for a few hundred years.

With this newfound protection, these Heaven Chosens often act crazy and wild. They will attack other powerful sects fully knowing that they could not be killed. Especially those Devil Cultivators, they would go crazy after the trial: they will kill, burn, rape, and loot all around the world.

Of course, after the protection period is over, the majority of these people will run to hide, knowing that many people will want revenge against them. The only way to stop these people is also to have a True Heaven Chosens.

This kind of behavior resulted in many factions throughout the world competing for the few spots in the trial, thus also further boosting the popularity and reputation of the Emperor Enlightenment Academy.

After pondering all of these things for a while, Wang We then spent the morning visiting the main city of the Academy and got acquainted with everything around. Later that afternoon, he met with his group before heading to the meeting place.

"Have you figured things out?" asked Wang Wei towards Wang Ju.

"Yes, young master. I have received cultivation techniques from the sect regarding anti-divination. Due to the short time period, it is not possible to learn, but the sect have also send me origin treasures with the same ability.

"There are some for me, Young Master Li Jun and Miss Yan Liling. Even Tie Gang and the Five Number Generals will also receive one."

Wang Wei nodded after hearing this. He had long noticed that his future Shadow—although excellent at her job—can suffer from low self-esteem at times—especially when it comes to her failures.

Wang Wei often had to reassure her during these moments, hence why he talked to her during the trial and offered her the Dao Washing Pill. However, he also realized that he could not always babysit when she faced difficulties or failures in her life. That’s why he did not say anything to her when she oversaw the problem of divination.

Nevertheless, it seemed that she handled the situation quite well this time. Having the ability to not let your mistakes dictate who you are and be able to learn from them is not a simple thing. Even Wang Wei sometimes makes mistakes and suffers from doubts as he knew that he was not perfect. But he always strived to learn any kind of lessons from his failures, thus ensuring that they were in fact not "failures" but "learning opportunities".

After ensuring that Wang Ju was fine, he suddenly asked Li Jun, "What happened to the Five Number General? Shouldn’t they have received their own names by now?"

"They are fine and are under special training. As for their names, they chose to retain the system of calling each other by numbers. According to them, this is the perfect way to motivate each other to surpass the other, plus they think it is more cool that way."

Wang Wei nodded as he could guess that this was the result of these people wanting to be unique. They probably hope that one day the name [Five Number General ] will actually echo throughout the entire world, thus creating their own lasting legend or myth throughout the world.

While the two of them were chatting, they had already arrived at the location of the meeting. It was a very luxurious inn decorated with countless precious jade and jewels.

Wang Wei looked at the sign that read [True Dragon Inn] and under it was the logo of the Association of Chamber of Commerce. He wondered what kind of price that this association paid for the Academy to allow them to set an inn this close to their main location.

With a quick scan of his Divine Sense, Wang Wei’s mouth started to twitch. He realized that he was the first person to arrive, despite the fact that the true starting time of this meeting was less than a few minutes away.

According to normal time, once these horny Heaven Chosens learned that a beautiful woman invited them to meet, they would arrive a few hours in advance to show that they are gentlemen, and in hope to meet the beauty as soon as possible.

However, there was no one here, except for Xi Shi that Wang Wei noticed in one of the rooms. Unfortunately , he could not see her face as there were powerful formations that prevented his divine sense.

Wang Wei could guess the reason for these people’s tardiness. It was because he was late to arrive at the Academy and many people had to wait for him. They seemed to want him to experience the feeling of waiting for other people. Wang Wei knew that his guess was correct as he felt all the different visions that were observing him, then reporting to someone else through talismans.

Wang Wei then smiled as he thought to himself, ’You guys want to play? Then, let’s play.’

After thinking about this, Wang Wei walked to the front of the entrance door, the he wrote on the top with his origin essence:

"Are you worthy to enter?"

Then, he mobilized the power of his 13th layer Body Refining realm, his Infinite Divine Sea, all his 720 Divine Veins, his 13 colored Good Fortune Flame and combined them into one: his True Will Ability.

He placed the powerful will on the entrance, which would test anyone who tried to enter through this door. Afterward, he and his group entered the inn.

Wang Wei and his group were received by a bunch of beautiful maids that led them to the place of the meeting. He then arrived in a large red room full of lavish decorations.

There were many cushions with small tables in front of them, however, all the seats formed a circular pattern. Wang Wei was slightly surprised as he could tell that the person who designed the seating arrangement did this in order to prevent a discussion or fight for the number 1 seat or the one in the center.

This person did not want all these Heaven Chosens with massive ego to fight each other over seating positions. However, there was still some sort of hierarchy as the seats were in rows. The first seat is probably for the people who are in the lists published by the Heaven Mystery Pavilion.

The second row is probably for the Heaven Chosens who had potential, but are either relatively low key or had low background—like being from a Holy Land or Supreme Land, or even worse, being a loose cultivator.

After seeing this, Wang Wei smiled as he and his group took a random seat in the first row. While waiting, the maids served them tea, fruits, and wine, along with a few snacks.

While eating, Wang Wei and his group used their Divine Sense to monitor the entrance of the inn. Soon, a person came to the door.

Xuan Yi was very excited. A few days ago, he received an invitation from the most beautiful woman of the world to attend a meeting. He was excited not only because of who sent the invitation, but also what it represents.

He knew that only some of the best Heaven Chosens that entered the eye of the Association would receive this invite. More importantly, his elders warned him that if the Association’s princess has a liking for him, it is his chance to rise to the top.

So, Xuan Yi was prepared to arrive early on the day of the meeting in order to give a good first impression. Unfortunately for him, on the night before, he received a secret letter stating that no one was to attend the meeting until Sacred Son Wang Wei arrived.

Although Xuan Yi was angry, he had no choice to agree with this after seeing all the names that were signed in this letter. However, he was still preparing to be the second person to arrive. So, he had one of his servants wait around the inn to send him a message notifying him as soon as Wang Wei arrived.

So, that is exactly what Xuan Yi did, he rushed to the inn as soon as he received the message as he was actually waiting not far from the inn.

However, as soon as he arrived in front of the inn’s door, Xuan Yi read the message on top and he became furious. All he could think about was who was so arrogant that questioned his talent and strength, and also prevented him from seeing his future wife.
