Seeing Ye Xiao coming out, a look of disbelief appeared on Dong Xuan's face. He took two steps forward, pointed at Ye Xiao, and said, "Impossible! This is impossible. How can a brat like you pass the Hell Level difficulty? You much have cheated!"
Ye Xiao looked at Duan Xuan only once before ignoring him. His attention was attracted by the black-robed demon. This demon was just an envoy but already had the cultivation base of Ancient Immortal Realm.
When Ye Xiao was still in the room, going through the trial, he had already released his divine sense and covered the entire inn. So, he knew who this black-robed demon was and for what reason he came here.
Ye Xiao's main target was to enter the Blood Demon Sect and find an opportunity to get near the Blood Pond there and cultivate the Fifth Layer of Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
While cultivating the previous four layers of his cultivation technique, Ye Xiao just needed to circulate the method and absorb the spirit energy. But for some reason, what the Fifth Layer needed was not the spirit energy but the blood energy of various beings.
Although Ye Xiao didn't know the reason behind this, he did have a feeling that this fifth dragon must be yet another demon dragon.
Seeing that Ye Xiao was ignoring him, a fierce light flashed in Dong Xuan's eyes as he shouted again, "Brat, tell me. How did you pass the Hell Level difficulty? Tell me what method did you use to cheat?"
Ye Xiao's face turned cold. He looked at Duan Xuan and snorted coldly before shifting his gaze towards the black-robed demon and said, "I think I should have also passed the trial. What does Lord Envoy think?"
The black-robed demon nodded his head in satisfaction and said, "Yes, you have passed the test. I didn't think that I could find someone who can pass the trail of Hell Level Difficulty."
"Lord Envoy, don't believe this man. This man must have cheated."
Seeing that the black-robed demon was very satisfied with Ye Xiao, Duan Xuan became jealous. He immediately turned to look at Ye Xiao and again said, "Brat, why don't you tell us what method did you use to cheat?"
"So noisy!"
Ye Xiao was irritated and casually waved his hand.
It was as if Dong Xuan was attacked heavily, he was sent flying and fall down on the ground, making a human-shaped hole.
"How dare you touch me!" Dong Xuan coughed-up blood, climbed out from the hole, and said in anger.
His entire body was covered in mud and his hair was scattered in a sorry state. He did not charge straight at Ye Xiao, but the gaze he looked at Ye Xiao with carried a deep dread.
Ye Xiao looked at Dong Xuan coldly as a killing intent burst out from his body, and said, "Do you have any objections?"
Dong Xuan had just experienced Ye Xiao's strength. He knew that he was not a match for Ye Xiao. Being stared at by Ye Xiao like this, Dong Xuan couldn't help but shiver. He had never encountered such an astonishing killing intent before.
Dong Xuan was sure that if he dared to go against Ye Xiao again, he would definitely be at least severally injured by Ye Xiao or might even die under his hand.
"No, I don't dare." Dong Xuan subconsciously replied.
Ye Xiao no longer bothered with him and turned to look at the black-robed demon.
The black-robed demon smiled and said to everyone, "Come with me."
Saying this, he left the inn. Ye Xiao followed behind him and also left.
When the surrounding Demonic Cultivators and Demons saw Ye Xiao leaving, they scattered as well. The Demonic Cultivators and Demons respected the strong. A person like Dong Xuan who only knew how to talk, no one would really look down on him.
"I wonder where this brat stole the medicine from. It's only a temporary increase in strength. When your medicine's effects lose their effectiveness, I want to see how you will fight against me!" Dong Xuan thought in his heat and a cold light flashed in his eyes which he quickly hide deeply.
.....
Just as everyone was following behind the envoy and arrived at an unknown place filled with other demons, a melodious sound of a horn sounded out from afar.
"They are withdrawing their troops!" Someone exclaimed.
Sure enough, not long after, the main altar envoys, Ancient Demons, and other demons arrived one after another. One of them was the representative of the main altar.
The so-called main altar was the main base of the demons of the Blood Demon Sect who came out from the sect to fight against the South Demon Alliance. This main altar or main base was also the place where the demons will check the talent of the recruited demons and demonic cultivators before assigning them a position.
After that, a mission will be given to them and by completing that mission, one will be able to enter the Blood Demon Sect as a disciple.
"In this battle, that motley group of demons from South Demon Alliance were indeed no match for my Blood Demon Sect!" One of the Ancient Demon sneered.
The representative of the main altar cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your troubles, brothers. I have completed my mission and will be returning to the main altar to report back. However, the main altar needs a lot of manpower. I'm taking these new recruits with me."
"A small matter." That Ancient Demon nodded his head.
The envoy, who brought everyone here, pointed to Ye Xiao and said, "This child's talent is not bad. If you bring him to the main altar, you must recommend him to Master."
The representative of the main altar agreed. But in his heart, however, there was still a trace of disdain.
The representative of the main altar took everyone with him, drove the battleship, and brought this group of newly recruited demons and demonic cultivators to the main altar of the Blood Demon Sect.
Roughly ten days later, the battleship slowly stopped in front of a huge city. From afar, one could see countless battleships docked at the edge of the city.
This city was three to four times larger than a human city. Beside the tall city walls, there were countless ferocious demons guarding it.
This was the main altar of the Blood Demon Sect.
"Go and register yourselves!" The Representative of the Main Altar left a message and left in a hurry. Demon like him came and went as they pleased.
Ye Xiao opened his eyes, a look of excitement flashed in his eyes. He was finally one step closer to his goal.
"All rookies, come over here for testing!" Another black-clothed demon appeared and said in a deep voice.
In front of him, there was a crystal.
When someone placed their hands on the crystal, they would display their strength as well as their previous testing records.
"Early Stage Immortal King Realm, passed normal trail, C grade!"
Next!" The demon in black said listlessly.
In front of him, a Demonic Cultivator said with a flushed face: "For a cultivation level like mine, even if I were to head to the Dark Demon Sect, I would still be an inner disciple.
The black-clothed man laughed coldly: "Don't confuse our Blood Demon Sect and those trash sects. With your level, you're just a piece of trash here."
That Demonic Cultivator was furious: "How dare you look down on me!"
He had a fiery personality to begin with, so he immediately took out an Immortal Rank weapon to teach the black-clothed demon a lesson.
Who knew that the black-clothed demon would suddenly extend his hand and give the Demonic Cultivator a light bounce.
Puff!
The Demonic Cultivator flew out a few meters and fell to the ground, his status unknown.
Very quickly, a few servants came over, carried the Demonic Cultivator, and threw him away as if it was trash.
With this, everyone became quiet.
This was the main altar of the Blood Demon Sect and the one that they were not lacking was a genius demon.
"Next!" The demon in black shouted impatiently.
Dong Xuan walked over with large strides, his face carrying a heavy smile. He confidently placed his hand on the crystal. Immediately, a dazzling light shone from it.
"Late Stage of Demon King Realm. You have even passed the Advanced Level trail." The black-clothed man was greatly surprised.
Dong Xuan laughed: "How is it?"
The demon in black nodded his head and said, "Finally, someone who has some talent. Your rank is B grade."
Dong Xuan frowned but because of the demon in black, he did not dare say anything. After a few more people checked, most of them were C Grade talents. There were even some who weren't even C Grade talents. They would just stand on the other side.
The demon who was placed on the other side all had sorrowful expressions on their faces.. If they were sent here, in the future, they might only be able to do things like servants.
Finally, it was Ye Xiao's turn.
Ye Xiao placed his hand on the crystal. There was only a dim light from the crystal before it disappeared. But soon after, a bright red light appeared in the center of the crystal!
"Middle Stage of Demon King Realm. Wait! How could this be a Hell Level Trail?" Shock suddenly flashed through the originally lazy expression of the demon in black clothing.
But right after, the black-clothed demon looked at Ye Xiao's cultivation level and a look of understanding flashed past his eyes.
"The crystal must be broken. How could a person with Late Stage Demon King Realm cultivation base challenge a Hell Level Trail?" The demon in black shook his head.
"According to your cultivation level, it should be a C grade!" The black-clothed man took out his brush and recorded down Ye Xiao's information.
Ye Xiao saw this but didn't say anything. He might encounter trouble in the future. So, hiding his strength right now was the best thing to do.
Only because of this did he suppress his cultivation base to Late Stage Immortal King Realm before placing his hand on the crystal for testing.
"It's too disappointing that not a single A Grade talent has appeared in this batch." The demon in black sighed.
Dong Xuan was a little unconvinced, "Senior, if there isn't even an A Grade talent among our group, then who exactly is an A Grade person?"
The black-clothed demon laughed coldly: "You don't need to know that. Anyway, demons with A Grade talent can directly enter the Blood Demon Sect and can even be chosen by the various princes as their aides!"
"Today, there will be a genius selected by the crown prince as his aide."
Hearing the word 'aide', everyone's eyes narrowed.
On the other hand, Dong Xuan knew about the internal affairs and was overjoyed: "Princes, they are about to choose aides now?"
Receiving an affirmative answer, Dong Xuan clenched his fists and said, "I am determined to win the position of an aide of the princes!"
"The registration is over. All of you, follow me. As for the other people with C Grade Talent, someone will arrange for your positions!" The black-clothed man ordered without much interest.
There were more than a thousand people present, only about ten of them had been evaluated as B grade. The rest were C grade.
Amongst the ninety odd people that the main altar envoy had brought over, only Dong Xuan had been evaluated as a B grade.
"I don't even need to bother about a person who relied on devouring medicine and using a secret technique to increase his strength." Dong Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head. His goal was to become the Blood Demon Sect's Prince's aide. It was even possible for him to become the legendary Crown Prince's aide!
The Blood Devil Sect is like a Demon's Empire. The sons of the leader of the Blood Devil Sect called themselves princes.
Dong Xuan's heart was higher than the heavens and in front of him, Ye Xiao was nothing more than an ant.
"B Grade Talents, follow me!" Suddenly, a low shout came from afar.
A terrifying, black-armored demon general descended from the skies, appearing directly in front of everyone.
"Demon Emperor Realm expert!" Everyone was shocked.0
Such a strong warrior was only a general in the Blood Demon Sect.
"Hurry up, the situation is urgent, don't delay any longer!" The general seemed to be extremely impatient and he began to urge them loudly.
When the general spoke, his voice actually carried a strong killing intent that caused others to shudder in fear.
"Uncle Yan, is that you? I am Dong Xuan!" Dong Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this demon.
The demon general narrowed his eyes and asked, "You are?"
Dong Xuan said: "My father is Dong Liangchuan!"
The demon general was suddenly enlightened as he said, "So you are Dong Liangchuan's son."
Then the demon general thought of something and laughed, "So that's how it is. Since you are Dong Liangchuan's son, rest assured, when we get to the battlefield, I will take care of you!"
Everyone glanced at Dong Xuan with jealousy and envy filled in their eyes.
"Alright, let's go!" The demon general waved his hand.
Dong Xuan suddenly said, "Uncle Yan, can you help me? I have a few words I need to say to someone."
After receiving his consent, Dong Xuan instantly appeared in front of Ye Xiao.
"What's the matter?" Ye Xiao raised his head slightly and asked.
Dong Xuan raised his head and said, "I can give you another chance now. Kneel down and kowtow three times to me, then break the hand that you used to attack me. I can allow you to follow me and become a high class slave!"
Ye Xiao kept looking at Dong Xuan for a while before saying indifferently: "Do you want to die?"
Dong Xuan stared blankly for a moment. He had never thought that Ye Xiao would give such a response even in front of the demon general.
He had already obtained the recognition of a demon general and even had B grade talent. In the future, he would definitely have a bright future after spending a few hundred years in the Blood Demon Sect.
Following which, a surge of anger surged into his heart.
"Alright, let's go!" The demon general's voice suddenly rang out.
Dong Xuan coldly snorted, "You're just an ant. Sooner or later, you'll understand the difference between you and me."
If not for the demon general's words, Dong Xuan would have already taken action and taught this arrogant Ye Xiao a lesson.
Never mind, when the war between the Blood Demon Sect and South Demon Alliance is over, I will make you kneel on the ground and beg me." Dong Xuan had always been the one to take revenge. Since Ye Xiao had already offended him, he would definitely not forget.
Dong Xuan and the other Demonic Cultivator with B Grade Talent were brought away by the demonic general.
"All of you trashes with C Grade Talent, come with me now."
At this moment, a rough voice sounded. The one who spoke was a demon with a green beard, four hands, and a sloppy appearance.
There were more than a thousand people in this area but his voice was extremely loud and it echoed throughout the entire area.
Everyone shuddered. The demon then brought everyone to a corner of the huge city.
This city was extremely huge. Even if over a thousand people were to walk together on the streets, it would not feel crowded at all.
It was only until they arrived at a place that looked like a slum did that demon stopped.
The houses here were extremely small and there were even thick layers of dust on the walls of many houses. Some of the roofs had broken tiles on them.
"From now on, this is where you will live." That demon said lightly.
No one was satisfied with the house the demon gave them to live in. This kind of house was even worse than what a human mortal lived in.
"Humph! Let's find an inn in the city to stay." A few Demonic Cultivators turned and left.
The demon who brought everyone here, sneered: "Sure, you can go. If you have Blood Stone, you can naturally go there. Don't blame me for not reminding you that the inn at the main altar is not a place where just anyone can stay."
"Also, in a few days, I will come to find you guys to fight on the battlefield. If you guys have accumulated a lot of battle achievements, you can naturally buy a better house and a better Cultivation Method to cultivate in.
Following that, that demon waved his hand and suddenly, countless waist plates landed in everyone's hands.
The waist plate on Ye Xiao's hand was numbered 201 and his rank was displayed as "Ordinary Demon".
Ordinary Demon was the lowest level existence in the Blood Demon Sect and was only slightly better than servants. Above Ordinary was Genius Demon, Viscount Demon, and then Demon General.
Ye Xiao looked at the houses and turned to leave. Such a house probably wouldn't even have the ability to conceal the person living inside.
.....
_Blood Demon Sect's Main Altar, In An Inn_
"You want a thousand Blood Stone for one night, why don't you just rob us!" A few Demonic Cultivators were arguing with flushed faces and red ears.
The innkeeper was not surprised. He impatiently said, "Whether you want it or not, this room here is expensive. You poor wretch, hurry up and scram!"
The assistant smiled and said, "Innkeeper, isn't there another empty room? And that room only needs 100 Blood Stones."
The inn keeper's eyes lit up. "Yes, there is such a room. Do you want it?"
Those Demonic Cultivators who were prepared to leave were overjoyed. "Alright, bring us there."
The inn assistant sneered and pointed at the horse collar. "It's there. There are straw mats there.. Be careful not to hurt yourself while entering the room."
