Indeed there is numerous vast disparity between the Tribal Domain and Azure Lightning City. Even for just ordinary cultivators, the disparity was marginally wide.


    When sensing theirpetition, Cain detected numerous other Nascent Formation Masters. And these Nascent youths weren''t simply at the first or second level.


    Some were at the peak of Early Rank or even at Middle-Rank Nascent Formation!


    It didn''t just stop there, however.


    Cain had taken particr notice of three youths who exuded a seventh-level Nascent Aura. And these three youths weren''t ordinary at all.


    With Cain''s precise Spirit Sence, he could directly perceive their powerful foundation. These three barely had any impurities within their aura. It was all firmly stable, unwavering, just like a mighty mountain.


    Their Nascent Auras was a massive, far cry to nearly all other challengers. Even the sixth-level Nascent youths were farckingpared to them.


    Kali might''ve glossed over them. But Cain noted these youths with slight regard.


    ''So it seems easy to pick out the true talent within this exams. Most of these guys just used different kinds of pills, herbs, or crystal beads to make a sure-fire breakthrough. Their foundation is so unstable and filled with impurities that it''s almost disgusting to sense them. And on the other hand, those three are the cream of the corp. They can easily pass this exam.''


    Cain silently analyzed to himself. He could see why these youths would rush their cultivation. Not only to just make it in the Crimson Sea Academy but also to protect themselves in general.


    If one''s Martial Talent can''t make up for the immense difference in levels, rapid breakthroughs are seen as the next best thing.


    Given their merciless environment, Cain didn''t expect every Martial cultivator to pursue the path of power simply because they wanted to reach the very pinnacle.


    Ordinary cultivators reminded him of his previous homeworld in a way.


    These people are only the average among average. They have little hope of bing legendary geniuses who can overturn the seas or split the skies apart.


    So the next best option was to rapidly increase their base powers just to gain a semnce of security within their lives.


    This, of course,es at the cost of severely hampering their future cultivation andbat prowess.


    Their potentials are either already squeezed dry or lost entirely.


    But if they could make it into a behemoth of an organization such as Crimson Sea Academy, then all the hardships should be worth it.


    Desperately struggling just to live a safe life. Cain internally shook his head at this thought.


    No matter where he ends up, life will always has itplicated issues no one can truly avoid.


    And this goes doubly true for the path of power. Attempting to go against the Heavens can only possibly lead to sinking or flying through.


    This is why Cain always counts his graces for being reborn with a truly broken ability that easily overturns all manners of logic.


    As Cain rummaged on his thoughts, his eyes soon turned towards the left him. He slightly narrowed his gaze, not even noticing this sight before.


    To his left and right side were a bunch of other youths, dressed in a specific style of clothes.


    Some wore ssical light blue uniforms that showcased an elegance far above themon standard. While others wore noble-looking dark blue uniforms that stood above the ssical light blue uniforms.


    These dark blue uniforms students also naturally emitted an air of pride that couldn''t be faked nor looked down upon.


    When recalling what these uniforms specifically was, Cain quietly muttered, "Right….these Crimson Sea students doe to watch. Didn''t think it would be so many...."


    "Seriously, what gives with this?"


    Kali joined in with a questioning look, also noticing the crowds of Crimson Sea Academy students. "By their uniforms, it seems like a mix outer and inner ranked students. And all of looked to be mixed of juniors and older folks. They couldn''t possibly have nothing else to do, right?"


    In Kali''s opinion, these entrance exams should have garner too much notoriety.


    Finding a talented youth who doesn''te from high backing or Sect organization is incredibly scarce.


    She put it akin to finding a spring stream in the middle of an infinite desert. And this gets countless times amplified when talking about Lower realms backgrounds.


    Feeling his curiosity surged, Cain decided to specifically listen in on these crowds of students.


    Previously, he could simply shut out the extra noise by focusing his Spirit Sense on himself and Kali. And now, he''s doing the same process with these Crimson Sea Academy students.


    "So we finally get to see the extreme geniuses from the Zhao and Zhun Families. Thest time these two participated, their top talents made it into the first rank and second-ranking. Wonder if the newest ones can keep the tradition."


    "These batches are certainly a step abovest time. Two seventh levels and one sixth! Just this level alone can undoubtedly get them into the Inner ranking even if they somehow score low."


    "Their auras are incredibly deep. They can even stand above so many other Nascentyouths."


    All Crimson Sea Academy students only had one fervent topic on their minds.


    The incredible talents from the Zhao and Zhun Families!


    Cain couldn''t precisely identify these Families. But he does vaguely remember ncing over these Families while inspecting the book.


    ''If memories served right, these two should be High-ss level families. Not quite on the same wavelength as any other sects. But still are high enough to be revered by anyone lower. So….those three I sensed must be from those famous families.'' Cain quickly recalled.


    A slight cocky smirk cracked upon Kali''s face listening to thesements. Muttering to Cain, she said, "So this will be the people we''ll inevitably outperform, huh? Looks like it''ll be quite the shocking day for many here."


    "True, but remember, at least try not to garner too much noise. Who knows how much ''fairness'' this Academy truly has."


    Cain still cautiously reminded. It would be troublesome if they already had several enemies right out of the gate.


    "Yea, yea Cain. I mean, I can try. But even suppressing my Qi and body, our strength still topples over anyone on our level. In short, we''re just too strong." Kali gave an exnation in a half-hearted tone.


    With the way she''s talking, it already seems like she made up her mind to outshine in this exam.


    Listening to her point, Cain honestly couldn''t find any fault. Their inborn advantages plus insane Martial talent makes it simply impossible to ever entirely suppress their strength.


    As Cain and Kali steadily advanced through the line, a sudden eruption of noise snapped their attentions.


    "Oh, look! Zhao Tan is finally going up!"


    "Ah, you feel his aura? That''s the making of a genuine genius."


    "I won''t be surprised if his score surpassed his family''s previous generation."


    The crowds of Crimson Sea Academy students rapt their attention on the youth strolling up to the test.


    Everyone had their intrigue at the utmost peak. The Nascent Aura this youth naturally emitted was no less than any other genius within their Academy!


    Even though this boyes from a high-ss family, this achievement was simply stupendous.


    At this moment, Cain and Kali also cast their gazes on Zhao Tan.


    Kali nearly rolled her eyes on first nces. Muttering under her breath again, she said, "So this is the hype? Slightly better than average, and they all go wild…."


    In contrast to Kali''s thoughts, Cain could see why he has a famous reputation behind.


    Zhao Tan had the appearance of a dignified and proud young man. His eyes were sharp and focused, showcasing a firm determination to all those daring to talk to him.


    The clothes he wore of a finely elegant stature. It consisted of a pure spring green robe and had an intricate design of leaves falling down on the backside of his robe. His whole entire being emitted the air of a proud young elite.


    Since this was one of the strongestpetitors in this exam, Cain decided to actually pay attention to his exam. He watched as Zhao Tan calmly strolled up to a uniquely tall-looking totem pole.


    The totem pole consisted of several exotic beasts that Cain didn''t think he had seen before.


    Each of these beasts held a strange air around them. By simply gazing upon them, you wouldn''t want to take your eyes from them.


    Pushing this thought down, Cain looked next to the totem pole, seeing an older middle-aged man standing there.


    This man wore a in blue uniform and didn''t exude any majestic or strong aura. He almost appeared as average.


    This man was Elder Mo, and the totem pole was how they would conduct the first part of their exam.


    Recalling how the exam is performed, Cain knows that the totem pole has quite a unique origin.


    It was created from thebined efforts of several powerful Martial cultivators and World Spirit Force Masters. Its use is to see profound insights into one''s Martial Talent, quality of bloodline,prehension of their Qi, and density of their Qi.


    Of course, this totem pole wasn''t an entirely urate statement of one''s overall talent.


    But this can precisely judge if a youth even has what it takes to make it to the Crimson Sea Academy.


    And at this time, the confident Zhao Tan stopped right in front of the beast totem pole.


    His face didn''t hold any excitement. There was only an unwavering calmness within his eyes. It was as if he already saw himself passing the test.


    Ignoring the fervent discussion around him, Zhao Tan raised his palm and surged his purest Qi energy.


    Right then, a brilliant orange sh light up the area.


    Streams of Nascent Qi rippled the air as a strand of Fire energy birthed upon Zhao Tan''s palm.
