Dragon-Marked War God

Yang Bufan was taken away by Yu Guangcheng. The only thing that was left behind was the route to the outer prefecture. The elder didn’t even tell them where Yang Bufan’s cultivation place was. It seemed like the Genius Prefecture was truly serious in training Jiang Chen.

“Big Yellow, the two of us have become isolated again. I have no idea what’s the outer prefecture all about. Let’s go and check it out.”

Jiang Chen patted Big Yellow’s head, causing the dog to show a face of pure reluctance.

“The outer prefecture is better. It has plenty of people and intense competitions. What’s the point of following that brat Yang Bufan? A dull cultivation isn’t something Master Dog wants. Since we have already come here, we might as well throw the entire Genius Prefecture into chaos. Or else won’t our trip here be in vain?”

Big Yellow shook his stout tail. This bastard had always been afraid of peace in the world. This so-called Genius Prefecture wasn’t much any different for him. As long as he followed Jiang Chen, they would prosper wherever they went.

“Let’s go and register at the outer prefecture.”

Jiang Chen said, then flew in the direction of the outer prefecture. The Genius Prefecture didn’t have a lot of rules, because geniuses didn’t like rules that contained them. As long as they were geniuses of Genius Prefecture, they could travel in the air. Everyone who cultivated here was an Immortal King with a background that couldn’t be trifled with. Any one of them would be able to dominate the entire One-Line-Sky.

There was no obvious boundary between the outer and inner prefecture except for the small mountain peak. Exquisite courtyards could be seen everywhere in the outer prefecture. The Heaven and Earth Immortal Qi here was extremely rich. One glance and anyone could tell that this was a paradise for cultivation, incomparable to any other places.

Rows of courtyards lined the boundless mountain range. As a matter of fact, apart from the independent cultivation venue on the summit for the Immortal Emperors, the geniuses of outer prefecture also had their private space for cultivation. Although all the courtyards here were linked together, every genius was still ensured a courtyard of their own. This way, many frictions could be reduced.

Moreover, all the geniuses here were Immortal King experts sent by some smaller sects. Each of them was the best of the best back in their sects. So they naturally wouldn’t receive an inferior treatment even here.

The Heaven and Earth Immortal Qi was at its strongest when it was at noon. It was also the hottest period of the day and was most suitable for cultivation. Which was why the entire outer prefecture didn’t seem to have lots of people. Most of the geniuses had chosen to cultivate at this hour.

“For Heaven’s Sake! There are so many courtyards here, which one is ours?” Big Yellow seemed dazzled by the number.

“Elder Yu gave me an identity jade token. I just have to take this token to the Registration Center, then I will know where my cultivation place is,” Jiang Chen said.

He swept around with his divine sense and found the Registration Centre very quickly. There was a small courtyard at the foremost of all the courtyards. Outside the courtyard hanged an ancient wooden plaque carved with two characters. It said ‘Registration Centre’.

“Right there. Let’s go.”

Jiang Chen said, landed from the sky with Big Yellow and strode to the Registration Centre.

This man and dog was hard to miss. Very quickly, someone had noticed them. A youth in blue robe walked over with a smiling face. His cultivation base had already reached the intermediate Immortal King realm. He greeted them enthusiastically despite their distance. “Is this friend new here?”

“Yes.” Jiang Chen nodded.

“Eh? This isn’t right. If I’m not mistaken, you’re only a half-step Immortal King, right? This will surely not qualify you to join Genius Prefecture. So it seems like you are a royal relative or descendant of one of the princes, only they have such a privilege.”

The youth seemed surprised and dubious when he first sensed Jiang Chen’s cultivation base. He had already been in Genius Prefecture for a year. So he knew very well about the situation in the prefecture. In addition to the imperial relatives that were sent to the prefecture since they were still young, no one below the Immortal King realm was allowed into Genius Prefecture. As such, he had deduced that Jiang Chen was one of them.

“I’m afraid that you are mistaken. I’m not a royal relative.” Jiang Chen smiled.

“My name is Dong Fei. What’s your name?” Dong Fei asked.

He seemed to like talking very much. Or it should be said that he seemed pretty bored. As he happened to meet a new recruit, he would like to have a conversation with this person even though he wasn’t of royal blood. More importantly, he was quite amazed that a half-step Immortal King could enter Genius Prefecture to train.

“My name is Jiang Chen,” Jiang Chen said plainly.

“Jiang Chen? Why is this name so familiar? Jiang Chen…you are Jiang Chen. The Jiang Chen in King Fan Prefecture. My Goodness! No wonder you are qualified to enter Genius Prefecture even though you are just at the half-step Immortal King realm.

At first, Dong Fei was baffled by the familiar name, but immediately, he recalled the identity of Jiang Chen. One should know that although Jiang Chen hadn’t reached Genius Prefecture yet, his name had already been spread to every corner of Genius Prefecture. No one wasn’t familiar with this name. Although Dong Fei was an intermediate Immortal King expert, he was incomparably clear that if he fought Jiang Chen now, he absolutely wouldn’t stand a chance. Even Fu Wei was killed by Jiang Chen, let alone him.

“That’s correct. I’m Jiang Chen. I’m going to the Registration Centre to register. Do you have anything else?”

Jiang Chen spoke to Dong Fei with a smile, seemingly reluctant to talk nonsense with Dong Fei here.

“There’s nothing else. I will bring you to the Registration Centre.”

Dong Fei seemed very excited. His heart was filled with admiration towards this Jiang Chen. He came from a poor background. Like most of the geniuses, he was selected from his sect. Although he was the most outstanding talent in his sect, the moment he arrived here, he was quickly relegated to the mediocre group. Additionally, he hadn’t joined the forces of Crown Prince and King Ping, so he still had very good impression of Jiang Chen.

Dong Fei was very enthusiastic. He quickly led them to the Registration Centre. As a disciple of Genius Prefecture, he was pretty familiar with the places here.

“Dong Fei, are there any additional steps in the process?” Jiang Chen asked curiously.

He would naturally be glad if Dong Fei was willing to help him. Initially, he thought that Dong Fei would show disgust after knowing Jiang Chen’s identity, or perhaps a lot of them were already waiting for Jiang Chen’s arrival so that they could cause him troubles. Currently, it seemed like that wasn’t the case. Not everyone in Genius Prefecture could join the forces of the princes, which had given some advantages to Jiang Chen. At least, he could establish a connection with lots of geniuses like this. In the future, they would become a part of King Fan’s supporting force.

In Genius Prefecture, the strongest forces were Crown Prince’s and King Ping’s. King Fan had basically zero followers in this prefecture except for Jiang Chen.

“It’s very simple. No steps are required. There’s only one elder named Elder Yu in the Registration Centre. You just have to pass the identity jade token to him to verify. Your accommodation has already been arranged in advance.” Dong Fei said.
