The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3745: It’s Enough! (Third Update)

For any prospective Cloud Clearing Master, examinations are to be taken at designated local testing centers; no other location will grant admission.

This stipulation exists because the difficulty of the Cloud Clearing Master examination can differ slightly based on the standards set by each local Cloud Clearing Association; some areas present a higher challenge, while others are more lenient. If all candidates were to flock to the easier examination sites, chaos would ensue, wouldn't it?

Consequently, those who fail might be barred from participating in the Cloud Clearing Master examination for a staggering ten thousand years!

Ten thousand years is an immense span of time for cultivators!

Deng Shaofeng's demeanor shifted, a flicker of uncertainty crossing his features.

This young brat, why does he exude such confidence? Isn't it all a bit too strange?

Could it be that he's merely attempting to deceive?

But precisely at that juncture, Ye Chen offered a subtle smile. With a flick of his wrist, a luminous spiritual light materialized before Deng Shaofeng, coalescing into an ancient parchment.

Astonishingly, it was a spirit contract!

Instantly, every soul present on the street held their breath!

This youth, he's truly serious!

Even the disciples from Jiuqing Mountain, who had initially held Ye Chen in disdain, couldn't help but show a spark of surprise in their eyes.

Ye Chen inquired indifferently, "Young Master Deng, you aren't feeling apprehensive, are you?"

Deng Shaofeng's expression churned through various emotions. Finally, gritting his teeth, he imprinted a Divine Soul Seal onto the spirit contract, replying with a cold snort, "Apprehensive? Hehe, brat, do you honestly believe you can fool this Young Master? You must not underestimate the Deng family too greatly! Today, I shall witness your demise!"

Ye Chen remained silent, a simple smile playing on his lips. He retrieved the spirit contract and continued his stride towards the examination venue alongside Xu Shenglong.

Meanwhile, the onlookers on the street engaged in hushed conversations, observing Ye Chen with intrigued gazes.

Swiftly, a piece of sensational news rippled through Xianying City...

A young man, who had dedicated a mere ten days to mastering the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques, had actually entered into a wager with the prestigious Young Master Deng?

Furthermore, the terms of this bet revolved around his ability to pass the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master examination!!!

Such electrifying news instantaneously set the entirety of Xianying City ablaze!

Though the source remained unknown, someone uncovered the name Ye Shitian, a name that subsequently echoed throughout Xianying City, stirring widespread discussion!

...

Concurrently.

Within a tranquil, secluded loft, a man and a woman made their entrance. The man possessed eyes like the starry expanse and brows sculpted like swords; his thin lips and aquiline nose accentuated a handsome countenance, refined as jade. A peculiar light green stone was suspended from his waist.

Accompanying him was a woman adorned in a delicate, light purple gauze dress. A veil obscured her face, yet even so, her unparalleled beauty was palpable.

The pair settled themselves within the loft, whereupon a maid approached, preparing for them a pot of fragrant, exceptionally high-grade Spiritual Tea.

The woman carefully lifted the jade teapot, pouring a cup for the man.

Their discourse unfolded naturally as they savored the tea.

The woman suddenly inquired, "Brother Lin, have you chanced upon the news of the wager circulating in Xianying City?"

The man, upon hearing this, his eyes glinted. He responded, "Oh? I have not. Given that you mention it, it must be no ordinary bet, correct?"

The woman let out a soft chuckle. "Indeed not. While the stakes themselves aren't particularly extraordinary, the individual making the wager is rather unique."

The man displayed piqued interest. "Do not keep me in suspense, enlighten me."

The woman then revealed, "I knew you would be intrigued. The bet concerns a young man named Ye Shitian and his prospects of passing the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master examination!"

The man's pupils contracted sharply upon hearing this. The hand that had been raising his teacup froze mid-air. Only after a brief pause did he lower the cup back to his lips.

A deeper smile bloomed in the woman's eyes. "Brother Lin, I haven't concluded yet. What is most unbelievable about Ye Shitian's wager is that he only commenced his study of the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques ten days prior!"

The moment she uttered these words, a sharp, piercing light erupted from the man's eyes, momentarily startling the veiled woman.

In that instant, any vestige of the man's former elegance and gentle demeanor vanished!

He transformed, resembling a predatory wolf!

A wolf capable of consuming the very heavens and earth!

He abruptly rose to his feet and strode out of the loft.

The woman inquired, a hint of bewilderment in her tone, "Brother Lin, where are you heading so swiftly?"

The man turned back, a slight smile gracing his lips. "Xianying City. How could I possibly miss such an enthralling spectacle?"

...

Xianying City, the Cloud Clearing Hall.

The sheer magnitude of the Cloud Clearing Hall dwarfs its counterpart in Deceit City by a hundredfold, possessing the capacity to accommodate millions of martial arts cultivators!

At this very moment, with the examination poised to commence, the Cloud Clearing Hall is already thronged with people!

Ye Chen arrived at the registration area. In stark contrast to other examination registration points, this particular section was surprisingly deserted; not a single soul was in sight.

A woman seated behind a table appeared on the verge of slumber.

The reason for the lack of attendees was that this location served as the registration point for the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master examination!

Ye Chen approached the counter and stated, "Hello, I wish to register for the Advanced Cloud Clearing Master examination."

The woman was taken aback by his words, her gaze fixed on Ye Chen with disbelief. After a moment, she hesitantly replied, "Uh, please pay the registration fee..."

Ye Chen nodded, and with a gesture, a dazzling display of precious light revealed numerous treasures laid out on the table!

These treasures were precisely the tuition fees Ye Chen had previously paid to Hong Jin and the others!

Those three cunning old men, upon discovering Ye Chen’s extraordinary spiritual root, had a complete change of heart. Not only did they dedicate themselves to teaching him, but they also secretly returned the tuition fees they had collected!

Their ulterior motive was to win Ye Chen's favor, differentiate themselves from each other, and secure a more prominent position in his regard...

Yet, they hadn't foreseen that all three would independently arrive at the same decision!

Recalling this, a smile naturally played on Ye Chen's lips.

The woman meticulously examined the treasures on the table and gave a nod, stating, "It is sufficient."

She then proceeded to record Ye Chen's details and presented him with a token, which served as his admission pass to the examination hall!

Secretly, however, she couldn't help but shake her head. In her estimation, this young man stood no chance of passing the examination, and these treasures were merely being squandered on the Cloud Clearing Association.

Having finalized his registration, Ye Chen made his way towards the spacious square of the Cloud Clearing Hall.

The moment he stepped into the square, a 'whoosh' sound filled the air as countless gazes immediately turned towards him!

In an instant, Ye Chen became the focal point of everyone’s attention!

The crowd regarded Ye Chen with a mixture of disdain, surprise, indifference, and malicious glee as the circulating rumors spread like wildfire.

The reason for this intense scrutiny was, naturally, the sensational wager news they had all heard!

Despite the attention, Ye Chen remained unfazed.

Deng Shaofeng cast a glance at Ye Chen, a cold sneer gracing his lips, before turning his focus back to the impending examination.

To him, Ye Chen was nothing more than a pitiful jester.
