Chapter 758: Little Founder
Chapter 758: Little Founder
"What the? Did you just say Divine Paragon? Have you finally gone senile from old age?" The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows when she heard the old lady's words.
After all, how could the Divine Paragon suddenly appear in the Grand Library?
The woman subconsciously turned to look at the direction the old lady was looking at, and to her absolute shock, someone who looked exactly like the Divine Paragon stood in the crowd!
As fanatics and admirers of the Divine Paragon, they have engraved every detail of the Divine Paragon into their souls, so they knew right away when they saw Yuan's face that he looked exactly like the Divine Paragon.
"Wait…" Before Tang Zheng could even open his mouth properly, the two women rushed through the crowd and directly at the unaware Yuan.
Yuan, who was minding his own business, suddenly felt two aggressive presence behind him, causing him to turn around.
When he did, he could see two women with glowing eyes running in his direction.
Naturally, this startled Yuan, who could only wonder who these women were and why they were running at him.
However, before he could even react, the old lady suddenly disappeared from her spot and appeared right beside him like a ghost.
"What the?!"
Right as Yuan turned to look at the old lady, he suddenly felt someone touch his cheeks, who also turned his head.
"Wow! You really look like the Divine Paragon! What's your name? And where did you come from, handsome?" The beautiful woman asked Yuan as she held his cheeks with her smooth hands, looking like an owner and her dog.
"Uhh… My name's Yuan…" He responded in a dazed manner.
"What in heavens' name do you two think you are doing to my new recruit?!" Tang Zheng suddenly appeared to drag them away from Yuan.
He then said, "I apologize for this, Yuan. They've been long-time admirers of the Divine Paragon, and since you look so similar to him, they went crazy."
"What do you mean he 'looks similar'? He looks exactly like the Divine Paragon, albeit a lot younger!" The beautiful woman said.
"I know that, hence why I brought you two here. However, if you're going to bother him, I will find new instructors for his examination!" Tang Zheng sighed out loud.
"Why are you being so annoying, Tang Zheng? We're not bothering him at all." The old lady cleared her throat before speaking.
"As for the examination, do we really need to do it? I can tell by his appearance alone that he will easily pass the examination."
"Senior Fu is right. There's no way that someone with the Divine Paragon's face could fail such an easy exam." The beautiful woman said.
Tang Zheng rubbed his temples and said, "I also know he can pass the examination since I have already seen him seal an artificial demon, but we still need to do an official examination. It will look bad on us if we don't do this."
"Whatever." The beautiful said before turning to look at Yuan with a friendly smile, "My name is Yan Hara. Let's talk more after your examination, handsome."
"Sure…"
After winking at Yuan, Yan Hara turned to look at the cultivators that were currently fighting an artificial demon.
"Hurry up and seal the demon already! If you make the little founder wait too long, I will go up there and seal the demon for you!"
When the cultivators and the spectators heard Yan Hara's words, they turned to look at them.
"Little founder?"
They all focused on Yuan, and sure enough, they could see a strong resemblance of the Divine Paragon from him.
"Heavens… Why didn't I notice this earlier? He really looks like the Divine Paragon's statue."
"He looks so much like the founder that I wouldn't doubt it if you told me he was a direct descendant of the founder…"
"What if he is a descendant?"
"That's not possible. They said the founder had no Dao Companion."
"That doesn't mean anything! For all we know, the founder could've found a Dao Companion after his disappearance!"
"Fuck… If you say it like that…"
Soon enough, pretty much everybody in the area was talking about Yuan's resemblance to the Divine Paragon.
A few minutes later, one of the cultivators there finally sealed the artificial demon and stepped off the stage.
He turned to look at Yuan and smiled, "The stage is all yours, little founder."
"Thank you…" Yuan didn't know how he felt about being called 'little founder'.
Ignoring their accuracy, it just felt weird.
Sometime later, Yuan stepped onto the stage, and all of the spectators in the area gathered around him to watch his examination.
"Before we begin, allow me to give you the rules." Tang Zheng said.
And he continued, "In order to pass the examination and become an Advanced Demon Sealer, you must seal an artificial demon that is two realms below your cultivation base within the time limit, which is thirty minutes."
"What…?" Yuan was dumbfounded to hear the passing condition, as it sounded way too easy.
"Two realms below my cultivation base within 30 minutes? Why is it so easy?"
Since he is a Spirit Lord, his artificial demon, which will be two realms lower, will only have the strength of a Spirit Master! He could seal a demon at this level even in his sleep!
Of course, while this examination might be incredibly easy for someone like Yuan, not all demon sealers are as talented as him.
While Yuan wouldn't have any trouble fighting demons above his cultivation base, he is an abnormal existence. Meanwhile, normal demon sealers would have trouble with demons even one realm below their own cultivation base.
Therefore, if they made the examination too hard, nobody would be able to rank up. With that being said, even with an artificial demon two realms below the examinee's cultivation base, there are still many cultivators out there that would struggle against it.
However, even though the examination was incredibly easy for Yuan, it wasn't as though he was completely free of worries.
In fact, he had one major problem regarding this examination.
'If I hit it with my demon sealing techniques, I will definitely break another artificial demon… What should I do?' He sighed inwardly.
