Rise of the Demon God

It was as if there was something familiar in this dark aura but something different as well.

"I think this should be enough for a practice battle," he stepped forward, calling an end to the battle.

"So fast? There should be more time left," Long Chen let out, smiling.

"I think there is no need for that. They are weak before you. There is no point in taking it forward," Zhu Chang replied. "It looks like I really underestimated you. You should be safe in the Plum Blossom Mountain with your evasion skills alone, let alone with your strength in the mix."

"I think we can skip this step," he further added, shaking his head.

"Sigh, just when it was starting to get good," Long Chen muttered, glancing at Zhu Lin, who was lying on the ground, looking at his hand.

"Whatever."

He turned around. "Let's leave."

Zhu Chang took Long Chen with him, leaving stunned youngsters behind, who were just amazed at what happened here. Some even felt relieved that they hadn't said yes to the battle. No wonder this guy was Zhu Chang's friend. He was certainly worthy.

Zhu Chang took Long Chen back to the portal to the Portal Hall. "Where next? Back to the courtyard or other places?"

Long Chen observed at the Portals. He selected the closest one to him. "Where does that take?"

"It takes to... Ah, I might as well show you. Come." Zhu Chang stepped inside the portal, which was selected by Long Chen.

Long Chen followed behind.

As the two of them came out, they noticed that they were standing before a massive complex.

"What is this place?" Long Chen asked.

"This is like a school for the youngsters. Here, they are taught about the basics."

"Basics?"

"Yeah. Like the laws of the worlds, the strength criteria, about other Godly Beasts, the humans, and more.

"Is there anything you want to learn? I'm sure they can give you a crash course. You're curious about the Phoenix. They can teach you their strength, their weakness, their living habits, and more. And if you're curious about the academy of the Godly Beasts, they can teach you about that too."

"Academy of the Godly Beasts?" Long Chen asked.

"Looks like you really are curious. Come." Zhu Chang smiled as he stepped inside the complex and brought Long Chen before a room. He stepped inside with Long Chen.

Seeing him enter, all the kids stood up in shock. To kids of the clan, Zhu Chang was the legend! He was the next Godly Beast King and the representative of their clan on the global stage. He was no less than a hero!

Even the middle-aged man who was teaching the kids was surprised to see him here.

"Zhu Chang? What are you doing here?"

" Can't I be here?" Zhu Chang asked, smiling. "Don't worry; I'm not here to disturb you. I just bought a student who wanted to learn about the Godly Beast Academy."

" Would you be open to taking him in short? He is new to the Beast World. It would be great if you could find him a crash course."

Zhu Chang said calmly, walking to one of the chairs. He sat down beside Long Chen.

"Ah... You brought a Demon? Does the Patriarch know?" The middle aged man asked.

"Yep. He allowed him to stay here. Long Chen is now the friend of the beast clan," Zhu Chang said, laughing. "So, are you going to continue? We have more places to be."

"I was teaching the kids about the star theory. I can't change the course in the middle," the middle aged man replied.

"Come on; I think the kids want to hear about the Godly Beast Academy as well. Don't you, kids?" Zhu Chang asked the kids.

"We do!" The kids said in unison, supporting Zhu Chang, who was their hero.

"See? Listen to the kids. Teach them," Zhu Chang said, smirking.

"Tsk, you'll never stop trolling me, will you? You were the same when you were in the class in your younger days and even now."

"Still, you could've told him that much yourself as well. Still, you came here just to have fun. Whatever, I'll speak a bit about the academy," the middle aged man said, rolling his eyes.

He looked at Long Chen. "Are you a Demon?"

"I'm a human," Long Chen answered.

"Then your eyes?"

"Side effects of a skill. I had normal eyes before. Don't worry."

"Sigh, so you're a human. Do you even know about the levels of the Godly Beasts?" The middle aged man asked.

Long Chen simply shrugged. "Nope. I don't even know much about the levels of Heavenly Warriors and Demons. I'm a blank slate."

"Sigh, it looks like it's going to take longer. What's your cultivation realm?" The man asked.

"I heard that it was equivalent to Heavenly General," Long Chen answered. "I'm not sure if that's correct though."

"Heavenly General?" The teacher asked, surprised.

The kids didn't know the cultivation levels of humans yet, so they couldn't understand why their teacher was so shocked. Was Heavenly General strong?

"Are you being serious?" The man asked.

Even Zhu Chang was slightly surprised. Long Chen really had that much strength? How?

"Teacher, is that strong?" One of the students asked.

"Strong? It certainly is. I guess while I'm at it, I can use this as a teaching opportunity for you all."

"There are many species in this world. The major ones from the are Heavenly Beasts, Demons, Heavenly Beings, and lastly humans..."

"Humans have peak cultivation of Immortal Saint Emperor Realm. And they are the ones who rule the Immortal World. But that's not strong on a bigger scale. A Immortal Saint Emperor can't even last ten minutes before a Heavenly Warrior!"

"That's why humans are called the weakest of the four Major Species. That's why it's surprising that he's claiming to be a human and still claiming to be that strong," the middle aged man said, sighing.

"Teacher, are you saying that he's lying?" One of the students asked.

"Who knows. I certainly haven't seen a human who managed to break the shackles of human limits," the middle aged man said, sighing.

"Anyway, continuing on that, the Demons and the Heavenly Beings are much stronger than humans," he added.

There are also many strength realms amongst the Heavenly Beings as they also use the same levels as humans for their earlier cultivation. But it's after the Immortal Realm Realm when the true cultivation of a Heavenly Being starts."

"If I were to stay in order, after Immortal Saint Emperor, there would be a Heavenly Warrior Realm for a Heavenly Being. After that, they evolve into a Heavenly Knight."
