…Demonic World.
Da Qian Defensive Area.
After more than 150 years of development, the original Da Qian Defensive Area has expanded many times in size, and its population has multiplied countless times.
Such vast lands and such a large population, coupled with ever-increasing economic prosperity and development, have also significantly elevated the economic status of the Demonic World Defensive Area.
For ease of management, a hundred years ago, Da Qian established a state based on the ten newly established counties of the Demonic World Da Qian Defensive Area, named—[Demon Subduing State].
The highest authority of Demon Subduing State is called [Demon Subduing Prefecture].
As Da Qian’s first “prefecture”-level administrative unit, the Demon Subduing Prefecture holds a unique position in Da Qian, combining both military and economic attributes, and is also seen as an experiment and innovation in Da Qian’s administrative system.
The capital of the [Demon Subduing Prefecture] is called [Soaring Dragon City].
The original body of Soaring Dragon City was actually the main base of the Demonic World Da Qian Defensive Area.
Over these years, due to its unique geographical location, this main base has become a massive city, renamed [Soaring Dragon City].
Soaring Dragon City has witnessed the hardships and sacrifices of the Da Qian human ancestors in resisting the Demonic Clan, and it has also witnessed the rise and glory of Da Qian.
As the functional buildings in the city expanded again and again, and with no need for defense, the originally towering city walls have long been dismantled, with only a small portion on the edges serving as historical witness.
Within the city, tall buildings stand in rows, streets are wide, and railcars and self-driving litter cars shuttle back and forth. Occasionally, a formation of flying carriages glides through the sky, creating a three-dimensional transportation network.
Currently, strict control over Demonic Evil Energy is still implemented throughout the entire Human race controlled area, and special protective arrays are used to isolate the Demonic Qi. As the heartland of the Human race, Soaring Dragon City is naturally the place where Demonic Qi is the thinnest.
Nowadays, the sky here is a clear blue, and the free-flowing Spiritual Energy in the air is quite abundant, making it very suitable for the Human race to live, reside, and reproduce.
To the west of Soaring Dragon City, near a region close to the Demonic Evil Sea, lies a vast, sparse cluster of buildings where many tall Spirit Woods of different species are planted. Various kinds of Spirit Plants are also abundant, resembling a giant garden.
This, here, is the location of the famous [Soaring Dragon College].
This college is a high-ranking institution jointly established by the Wang family, Da Qian Official, and Lingyun Holy Ground, specifically set up for the ten newly established counties under the [Demon Subduing Prefecture].
The principal of the college is an education giant within the Wang family education system, [Wang Lizhu].
As the youngest daughter of Wang Shouzhe, Wang Lizhu has been immersed in the field of education for many years, working diligently and achieving remarkable results, with a reputation of having students worldwide.
How could a highly-ranked college personally handled by Wang Lizhu be an ordinary one?
As such, admission to Soaring Dragon College is extremely strict. Those who wish to enter the college must first be the top graduates of a middle college, and their bloodline talent must reach the Heavenly Proud Level.
The college spares no effort in nurturing students who join.
Thus, currently, the entire college has only about thirteen hundred students, with less than fifty students graduating each year.
Outside the college, there’s a bustling gourmet street that caters to both students and tourists.
Among them is a roadside restaurant called [Delicious Pavilion].
At this moment, inside Delicious Pavilion, a man and a woman are seated by the window.
The table in front of them is laden with various specialty dishes from [Demon Subduing State], most of which are the local specialty [Red Demon Shrimp], prepared in various ways such as garlic stir-fried, thirteen-spice, steamed, and charcoal-grilled.
“Old Ancestor, please try this garlic buttered giant crab leg, a new specialty from this shop~” Ximen Chuiyu picked out a large crab leg and handed it to the middle-aged beautiful woman across from him.
Ximen Chuiyu is a handsome young man in white with an elegant demeanor. Opposite him, the middle-aged beautiful woman also has a radiant and plump beauty and extraordinary temperament. The two sitting by the window form a natural scenic view.
“Chuiyu, time really flies by.” The middle-aged beautiful woman, Ximen Muxue, sighed with emotion while enjoying the crab leg. “Our Ximen clan has been pioneering and building outside the region for nearly two hundred years now. I remember when I followed Old Ancestor Xuansong on the [Wang Hai Ship] Domain Crossing Ship to this land, I was just a teenager.”
And now, the former little girl has already matured, becoming an Old Ancestor in the Heavenly Human Realm, supporting the family.
“It’s all thanks to the hard work and pioneering efforts of our ancestors.” Ximen Chuiyu nodded, “Only then can we juniors focus on learning and cultivation without worrying about money.”
No wonder he was emotional. Although his innate talent was pretty good, he wasn’t at the Sky Pride level. It is entirely due to family nurturing that he became a Sky Pride.
Over the years, it has also been the unwavering support from the family, coupled with his own hard work, earning scholarships, that enabled him to enter the Heavenly Human Realm at just seventy-six years old, with a bright future ahead.
Ximen Muxue smiled, “Now that you have graduated from Soaring High and earned your way into the prefecture’s secretary office with your abilities, your future is bright. In some sense, you are paving a future for the family’s juniors and laying a foundation. By the way, I haven’t properly congratulated you~~ This is a top-grade magical treasure prepared by the family for you.”
