Chapter 426: Tower Defense?
Among the three examiners, the one in the center appeared as a humanoid figure made of mist, with twin arcs of lightning flashing like eyes where his face would be.
Director Gao instantly recognized him as one of Wanfa University’s vice presidents, True Lord Qiyun, who oversaw teaching and talent cultivation.
For years, True Lord Qiyun had been a vocal advocate for underage Immortal Path cultivation, believing that the best future for Kunxu’s youth lay in the grave. He’d long pushed for teenagers under eighteen to be allowed to cultivate and contribute to society.
And the misty figure before them was merely one of his projections.
To the left stood a ten-meter-tall Demon-Kin with dragon-like nostrils and jutting fangs—one bearing the blood of an Elephant-Demon.
Director Gao recognized this as True Lord Tianxiang from Demon-Beast University, a seasoned expert in civil engineering with considerable academic influence.
True Lord Tianxiang was also a big name in the Foundation Stake field. He once accelerated the gestation of three thousand demon embryos in a single day to meet a project deadline. He had repeatedly protested interspecies inequality, arguing that every human should have the right to mass-breeding production techniques.
Whether it was True Lord Tianxiang or True Lord Qiyun, both were names Director Gao had known for centuries.
Yet each time he saw them, he couldn’t help but admit—they had changed. Greatly.
