I Am Overlord

”I did not expect to enter human heaven unity just from talking about the dao with his master.
It was a bountiful talk, ” lamented Xiang Shaoyun with a smile.

He felt as though the clouds in his mind had cleared, and many of his confusions were no more.

”From this talk, you have understood your future path.
In the future, you will have to rely on yourself.
Nobody will help you.
It is all on you to retain a fearless and unshrinking heart, ” the gravekeeper elder ’s voice rang out.

”Thank you for your teachings, Master, ” said Xiang Shaoyun.

The gravekeeper elder was nowhere to be seen, and Xiang Shaoyun did not know where he was.
However, the gravekeeper elder seemed to be everywhere and was observing his every action.

”You don ’t need to thank me.
All your gains originated from your comprehension capability.
If you have poor comprehension capability, it will be pointless no matter what I tell you, ” said the gravekeeper elder indifferently.
”The academy has decided to expel you. ”

”What? ” Xiang Shaoyun was alarmed.

He had been fully engrossed in talking about the dao and had not considered what the academy would do.
Upon hearing this news, he lost his calm.

The other party was obviously at fault.
True, he had killed, but they were the ones who had started it.
He was also backed by the gravekeeper elder, whom even the grand elders feared.
He had thought that even if he was punished, it wouldn ’t be heavy.
But expulsion had surpassed his expectation.

”Do you find it hard to accept? ” asked gravekeeper elder.

”Yes.
Master, how can they make such a decision? ” Xiang Shaoyun questioned indignantly.
He had gone through many trials to join the academy.
He had just gotten himself a reputation in the academy, but this happened instead.
He couldn ’t accept it.

”They made the decision with my permission.
Otherwise, they wouldn ’t have the guts to do so, ” said gravekeeper elder.

Xiang Shaoyun was stunned.
He had not imagined that the gravekeeper elder had agreed to the punishment as well.
He was speechless.

The gravekeeper elder appeared far away, and with a few flickers, he appeared before Xiang Shaoyun and said, ”You walk the path of the strongest physique, so you shouldn ’t limit yourself to any single location or organization.
Each inch of land in the dominion is filled with different experiences waiting for you.
They will help you grow, but cultivating in the academy is too peaceful, and it will only suppress your potential, making it hard for you to complete your path.
Therefore, I have decided to release you, like I am releasing a dragon back to the sea.
We shall see if you can truly soar above the high heavens, akin to a carp transforming into a dragon. ”

Xiang Shaoyun sank into thought and realized that the gravekeeper elder was going to start tempering him.
Expelling him was the first round of tempering.
He would have to rely on himself to thread on the path toward his own dao.

The gravekeeper elder continued, ”The academy is already starting to rot.
For the coming competition of the four academies, I want you to participate as an individual and distinguish yourself from the rest, teaching all of them a lesson.
They will learn how idiotic a decision they have made.
If you can ’t achieve that, then don ’t even mention that you ’re my disciple anymore. ”

”But how can I join after leaving the academy? ” Xiang Shaoyun asked in confusion.

”Nobody owns that place.
I have my own method of letting you in, ” declared the gravekeeper elder confidently.
