Seeing Lin Shen turn around, the male disciple immediately said,

“Senior Brother Lin, we’ve met before. My name is Zheng Weirong.”

“My name is Bai Xiaotong!” the girl said with a smile.

They were rather friendly. Although Lin Shen didn’t like the two people who had once teamed up with Yan Dao, he still greeted them back.

“Senior Brother Lin, are you going to the Internal Affairs Department to change your identity token?” Bai Xiaotong asked with a smile.

“Identity token?” Lin Shen was stunned.

“That’s right,” Bai Xiaotong didn’t notice Lin Shen’s confusion and continued. “We just returned from the Internal Affairs Department. I heard from Master Tao that you haven’t gone to change your Heaven-rank disciple identity token yet.”

…..

Lin Shen was really stunned.

When did he become a Heaven-rank disciple?

Wasn’t there still seven or eight days before the next round of rank challenge?

Zheng Weirong was smarter. He quickly realized from Lin Shen’s expression that he still didn’t know what had happened and hurriedly explained.

After hearing Zheng Weirong’s explanation, Lin Shen finally understood.

It turned out that in the battle with the Tiger Tribe, the Nine Yang Academy had lost many disciples.

After the war ended, there were vacancies in all four ranks.

At that time, there was still about a month before the disciple rank challenge, so the tutors had to discuss and decide on the candidates.

As expected, the tutors unanimously approved Lin Shen, who had shone brilliantly in the war and performed stunningly, as one of the candidates for the Heaven-rank disciple.

Hence, he was promoted to a Heaven-rank disciple!

As soon as this news was released, it immediately caused a huge uproar in the academy.

It had been less than half a year since Lin Shen entered the academy.

Most of the disciples who entered the academy at the same time as him were Yellow-rank disciples. There were even some who remained rankless.

No one had become a Black-rank disciple!

However, Lin Shen had already climbed to the position of a Heaven-rank disciple!

The difference was simply too great!

Ever since the establishment of the Nine Yang Academy, no disciple had been able to rise from a Yellow-rank to a Heaven-rank disciple in less than half a year!

This speed was simply unbelievable!

However, no one objected to this decision.

There wasn’t even any criticism in private.

After all, Lin Shen’s achievements were obvious to all.

In the battle with the Tiger Tribe, he had revealed a Path-stage martial technique that only those at the Bright Aperture Stage could master and even killed an Enlightenment Stage white-eyed tiger demon!

Even though the white-eyed tiger demon had already been seriously injured, it was still at the Enlightening Stage. The fact that Lin Shen could kill an Enlightening Stage demon as a Long Breath Stage cultivator was enough to shut everyone up!

As soon as the news came out, all the Heaven-rank disciples remained silent.

All of them understood that even without the promotion of the tutors, Lin Shen could still be promoted to a Heaven-rank disciple when the disciple rank challenge arrived.

When that happened, apart from a few elite disciples who had already advanced to the Bright Aperture Stage, no matter which Heaven-rank disciple Lin Shen chose to challenge, that person didn’t have much chance of winning.

Since that was the case, it was better to let Lin Shen level up through promotion.

This way, no one would suffer losses.

Hence, under the academy’s public support or tacit agreement, Lin Shen became the fastest-promoted Heaven-rank disciple in the history of the Nine Yang Academy!

“I didn’t expect to be promoted to a Heaven-rank disciple after seclusion.”

Lin Shen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

However, when he came back to his senses, he was still quite happy.

After all, a Heaven-rank disciple would receive a medium merit every month and could move into a Grade-A Teaching Room with a higher concentration of spiritual essence. It was naturally a good thing to be promoted.

“Thank you.” Lin Shen thanked the two of them.

Zheng Weirong and Bai Xiaotong hurriedly waved their hands. Apart from their enthusiasm, there was also a hint of reverence.

Although Lin Shen was younger than them, the world of cultivators had always emphasized that the strong came first.

Whoever had a higher cultivation level would be respected and revered by others.

Lin Shen was already a Heaven-rank disciple at such a young age. His future would only be even more limitless.

To Zheng Weirong and Bai Xiaotong, Lin Shen was already equivalent to the ten high and mighty disciples of the upper house. He was an existence that they couldn’t compare to.

Lin Shen didn’t know what the two people in front of him were thinking. He suddenly thought of something and asked,

“How was the war between the sect and the Tiger Tribe?”

Zheng Weirong hurriedly replied, “The war ended half a month ago. Our sect won a complete victory, and the Tiger Tribe’s demons were almost completely wiped out. Only a small number of demons fled in time and scattered into the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range. However, those demons are no longer a threat. The Tiger Tribe has already become history!”

Lin Shen clicked his tongue, but he was not very surprised.

After all, the Nine Suns Sect was superior to the Tiger Tribe in terms of foundation and strength.

In the past, the Tiger Tribe lived deep in the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range and had a geographical advantage. They could still barely contend with the Nine Suns Sect.

However, for some reason, they took the initiative to provoke Dragonside City and even sent their main force to fight head-on when the Nine Suns Sect was marching. This action was no different from courting death!

It wasn’t surprising that the entire tribe would be destroyed in the end!

Just as Lin Shen was sighing, he heard Bai Xiaotong suddenly say indignantly,

“It’s a pity that the Yan family is too ruthless. Otherwise, our academy would definitely be able to obtain a batch of spiritual beasts this time. I would also be able to spend fewer merit points to exchange for a combat spiritual beast!”

Hearing the words “Yan family”, Lin Shen’s heart skipped a beat. He asked, “What’s wrong with the Yan family?”

Zheng Weirong took over and said, “It’s said that the Yan family was in charge of attacking the Tiger Tribe’s nest, the White Tiger Mountain Cave Abode. However, the Yan family was too heavy-handed and killed all the demons on the White Tiger Mountain. Not a single captive was left. Even the Cave Abode was burned to ruins, and its spirituality was greatly reduced.

“After this battle, the sect barely obtained any spoils of war on White Tiger

Mountain. The Yan family also suffered many criticisms.”

Bai Xiaotong curled her lips and snorted.

“In my opinion, the Yan family clearly did it on purpose. Otherwise, how could they be so heavy-handed in a normal attack?”

Zheng Weirong laughed and shook his head. “Then what does the Yan Family want? Doing this won’t do them any good at all. Instead, they will lose a lot.

II

Besides, the sect has already punished the Yan family. Don’t complain anymore. Be careful not to be heard by others. When the time comes, the Yan family will find trouble with you!”

There were quite a number of Yan family disciples in the academy. Bai Xiaotong stuck out her tongue and didn’t say anything else.

Lin Shen, on the other hand, looked thoughtful.

However, he quickly put this matter to the back of his mind.

Whether there was something fishy going on or not, it had nothing to do with him.

After chatting with Zheng Weirong for a while more, Lin Shen bade farewell and left, rushing straight to the Internal Affairs Department.

As soon as he walked into the Internal Affairs Department, he met his old acquaintance, Tao Zongbao.

Seeing Lin Shen, Tao Zongbao was stunned for a moment before revealing a warm and surprised smile.

“Fellow Daoist Lin, it’s been a while. No wonder I heard magpies calling this morning. It’s because an esteemed guest has come!”

How could he find magpies in the Cave Abode?

Lin Shen couldn’t help but laugh, but he only cupped his hands and smiled.

“Long time no see, Deacon Tao.”

The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries before Lin Shen explained his intentions.

Tao Zongbao immediately brought him to the inner courtyard to settle the procedures.

Not long after, Lin Shen received a new identity token and the activation token for the Grade-A Teaching Room.

…..

“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Lin.”

Tao Zongbao was congratulated with a face full of smiles, and his expression was even more enthusiastic and attentive than before.

“You became a Heaven-rank disciple in less than half a year after entering the academy. You’re the only one in the academy. Looks like it won’t be long before you can enter the upper house!”

“Thank you for your kind words.” Lin Shen smiled faintly.

Tao Zongbao was a smart person. He could tell that Lin Shen had other matters to attend to, so he didn’t say anything else and politely sent him out.

Watching Lin Shen leave, Tao Zongbao couldn’t help but sigh.

When Kou Ming introduced Lin Shen to him back then, he guessed that Lin Shen would shock the academy sooner or later.

Who would have thought that it would come so quickly and shockingly?

As a result, he could no longer see the limits of Lin Shen’s future!

“Forget it. No matter what, I have some relationship with Fellow Daoist Lin. Even if I can’t cozy up to him, it’ll be a topic of conversation in the future…”

Tao Zongbao thought happily.

Back at the villa.

As soon as Lin Shen entered, he saw Ai lying on the sofa, stretching her body comfortably.

Hearing the door open, Ai looked up and saw Lin Shen. A human-like surprise immediately appeared on her face.

“Lin Shen, you’re back!”

Lin Shen smiled as he watched Ai jump onto his shoulder.

“Has anything happened recently?”

It was just a casual question, but Ai nodded.

“I went to see the general two days ago. He said he wanted to meet with you..”
