Rise Of The Demon God

Chapter 1408 - 1408: Prove It

Then comes Heavenly General and lastly, a Heavenly Emperor!"

"Similarly, Demons also use similar order. After Immortal Saint Emperor, they have Demonic Warrior, Demonic Knight, Demonic General, and lastly Demonic Emperor!"

"So if what he's saying is true, then this guy already stands near the peak of Heavenly Realm," the man said, observing Long Chen.

"Ah, Teacher. I can't understand. Can you tell us how strong a Heavenly General will be in our strength Levels?" Another kid asked.

"Sigh, in essence, really strong," the man said.

"You know our Patriarch?" He asked.

The kids nodded.

"Our Patriarch is a Grade Ten Heavenly Beast! Only the Patriarchs of all Godly Beast Clans have reached the Grade Ten, which is the peak for us. If I were to classify that in mortal terms, that Realm would be the same as the Heavenly Emperor Realm!"

"Grade Nine Beasts like the Grand Elders and Zhu Chang would be equivalent to a Heavenly General in a way."

"Huh? You mean he is as strong as a Senior Brother and Grand Elder?" The kids asked in shock.

"We can't be sure of that. There is too much strength gap even amongst Grade Nine Beasts. For example, Zhu Chang just broke through to Grade Nine. But he won't even have ten percent strength of Grade Nine Grand Elder. Similarly, all Heavenly Generals won't be equal," the man answered.

"That's why they classify Heavenly General Realm in ten minor realms. If the man is First Stage Heavenly General, then he would be no way close to the true Heavenly General of the Heavenly World. In fact, he would even be weaker than Zhu Chang."

"Just like they have first to ten stages Heavenly General, we have Initial Stage Grade Nine Heavenly Beast like Zhu Chang, Middle Stage Grade Nine Heavenly Beast like me, High Stage Grade Nine Heavenly Beast like Elders and Peak Stage Grade Nine Heavenly Beast like Grand Elder," the man explained.

"Still, being able to be classified as a Grade Nine beast, it's certainly amazing. But I wonder if it's the truth," he added, looking at Long Chen.

Even Zhu Chang was surprised. Long Chen had stayed in the Mortal World. How was he so strong suddenly? Something seemed odd.

"Why don't you test if you're suspicious. I'm sure you have the measuring crystal, right?" he asked the man.

This way, he also wanted to test Long Chen's strength to see if he was actually telling the truth. And on what scale was his strength in the ninth grade.

"I do have it. Not a bad idea indeed," the man let out, bringing out a small crystal.

He tossed the red crystal towards Long Chen.

Long Chen grabbed the crystal.

"Now, apply some of your energy into the crystal. It'll show what grade you'll be if you were a Heavenly Beast," the man said.

Long Chen observed the crystal but didn't apply his energy. "I don't think there is any need to test. If you want to believe, you can. If you don't want to, then don't."

He tossed the stone back to the middle aged man. He wasn't going to apply his qi to the crystal. As long as he was here, he wanted to be careful and not do something stupid.

"Heh, so he was bluffing just to show off. What a braggart. No way could he be in the same realm as brother Zhu."

"I knew it at the start. Brother Zhu is a legend to reach such a stage at such a young age. No way someone else could achieve it."

Long Chen didn't let the insults get to his head. He knew the truth. He wasn't as strong as the Heavenly General, but he was certainly in that Realm.

At least, that's what the old man had told him at the end of training. He was told to avoid fighting the Heavenly General because there was a big difference between them.

The middle aged man looked suspiciously at Long Chen. He wondered if this guy was actually lying or was it something more.

"Are you sure you don't want to try?" He asked Long Chen again.

Long Chen nodded his head. "Yeah. A wise man once said that you don't need to prove your strength Unless you're standing before an enemy on the battlefield. Similarly, I don't need to prove anything."

"Fine. Let's just leave it. It didn't matter if you're in that realm or not in any case," the middle aged man let out.

Even though it talked like that, in his mind, he was sure that Long Chen had bluffed, and he was now trying to avoid being exposed with such big words. However, he didn't dig deep.

As for Zhu Chang, he wasn't so sure. He was surprised to hear of Long Chen's cultivation, but he also had a feeling that there might not be a lie there. Long Chen had defeated Zhu Lin so easily.

Zhu Lin was a Grade 7 Heavenly Beast. Defeating him meant that Long Chen was probably in Grade 8. Who knew? He might possibly be in Grade 9 as well. He couldn't ask too much since Long Chen wasn't an enemy.

"Alright, let's continue. We were about to talk about the Godly Beast Academy. In essence, it's the Academy which is established in the White Tiger Realm with the cooperation of all Heavenly Beast Clans."

The middle aged man skipped the topic of Long Chen's strength and continued on the main topic.

"Only Heavenly Beasts can get admission in the academy where they are taught many things. Still, it's not easy to get entry into it."

"You can only give the entrance examination after reaching Grade Seven. And then, too, you'll need to pass through strict selection to get admission. Each Godly Beast Clan can send five students each year who can enter without any examination." He smiled. "And the rest go through the examination."

"Guess how Zhu Chang gained entry?" he asked.

"Directly?" The kids replied.

"Well, nope. The five sent by the clans can't be the heirs. It's a rule that a Direct Heir of a clan must go through examination to get an entry into the sect. And their examination is even stricter."

"Zhu Chang went through that one. And fortunately, he passed."

"Of course, I passed. It wasn't that hard," Zhu Chang let out, smiling. "All we had to do was-"

"Cough, Zhu Chang. Aren't you forgetting you aren't allowed to tell what test you went through?" The middle aged man said, glaring.. He stopped Zhu Chang in the middle.
