Chapter 52

"Is there anything to be unhappy about? She is the favorite of the Dawnlight God, and the children are not wrong. Are you envious?" The short priest, wearing the emblem of the Dawnlight Church, smiled at the girl and said.

"What's so great about it?"

"Easy for you to say, she had a divine sign at birth, which I witnessed with my own eyes. Don't be不服气 (unconvinced)."

Born with a divine sign? Indeed, she is the favorite of the Dawnlight God. From the looks of it, the girl in the light pink clothes has much higher talent than Little Price. Jiang Junming, hearing the priests and the older students on the stage discussing, thought to himself.

The tall old priest of the Justice Church cast a gaze like an invisible hand, and the voices of the group of young people subsequently weakened, whispering to each other, afraid of angering the tall priest.

"How can there be such an ugly person? This year's students are really unique. Not only in talent, but even in appearance."

"Hey, look at the boy who came in behind him. Could they be half-brothers? How can they be so extreme? The two of them walking together are like a natural pair, a pair made for comparison."

"Do you think he's already used to being talked about? How can he stand there as if nothing is wrong?"

"Of course, if you look like this, and can still live to this age, you must be used to it."

The two priests on the stage saw the two boys enter one after the other, clearly coming to the Church Academy together, and carefully observed the two boys.

The tall old priest said, "At this age, to be able to control one's energy internally is quite difficult."

"From what I see, the one in front who looks ugly has more potential."

"I think both children are about the same. Who will be stronger in the future depends on their own efforts."

Jiang Junming heard the two priests whispering comments about each student entering, and it seemed that none of the boys entering the Church Academy with him were weak. At this moment, Little Price's talent didn't seem particularly outstanding. Just as the older students said, the Moonlight City is one thing, but the Dusk City is completely different.

"That boy looks quite handsome." The girls around them commented.

"That's only because Tireda isn't here, otherwise you wouldn't think this boy looks good."

"Tireda... Where is he!"

"Stop being infatuated, Tireda isn't here. Every time I think of his elegant posture, gentle words, and handsome appearance, my heart beats like a little deer, it's so embarrassing."

"..."

The girls' eyes sparkled when they mentioned Tireda, and they wouldn't give in to each other, becoming more and more sour, almost ready to fight. The teacher in the green robe glared at them, and an older student walked over unhappily, scolding them in a low voice, which finally made the infatuated girls quiet down.

Jiang Junming was speechless, his ears filled with the meaningless chatter of the girls. As he was about to enter the hall, he no longer paid attention and stepped in.

Entering the hall in a line, Jiang Junming felt his heart become much calmer as soon as his foot touched the ground. It seemed that the high mountain jade on the floor of the hall, as the boys said, could calm the mind and was very beneficial for prayer and meditation.

Looking around, the hall was very large, with a very high dome that was dark blue, like the night sky, with countless stars embedded in it, made of some unknown gemstones, emitting a brilliant yet calm light. The floor was paved with jade, which seemed to be the high mountain jade the boys mentioned. Walking in the hall, the mind was calm and stable, like strolling under the night sky, as if the whole person were melting into the night, the mind clear and bright.

So big! Jiang Junming was amazed by the layout and spaciousness of the Church Academy's hall. The high mountain jade and the stars on the dome were made of some rare materials that Jiang Junming couldn't identify, but the hall was indeed very large, much larger than the temple of the Care Church in Moonlight City, which left Jiang Junming very impressed.

As Jiang Junming entered the hall, the sky on the dome suddenly seemed even larger, like a vast sea, like a vast sky covering everything, so calm, without a single wrinkle, all the same deep blue, with many shining stars hanging on it, as if countless eyes were curiously watching the boys entering.

Observing the hall, Jiang Junming keenly noticed the characteristics of the hall besides the dome and high mountain jade mentioned by the boys. First, there were many doors, 17 in total, for easy evacuation; second, the view was good, no matter where you sat in the hall, you could see the slightly higher platform at the front; third, the acoustics were excellent, the footsteps echoed softly in the hall, like gentle sea breezes.

At this moment, a few people around them commented, "Where are these people from?"

"Looks like they're from Moonlight City. Look at those two, one fat and one thin, they look like they're here to steal, sneaking around."

"Can that place even be called a city? It's said that the priests in Moonlight City are bold and corrupt, which is why there's a retest."

"Not just Moonlight City, but people from other places too. They haven't seen much of the world and don't know the rules. Let's see, maybe all the students from Moonlight City will be sent back."

The others continued to talk about the noble's son, treating Jiang Junming and his group as if they didn't exist. Jiang Junming thought to himself with a smile, Little Price was considered a genius in Moonlight City, but in Dusk City, he had become as transparent as himself. It seems the difference between Moonlight City and Dusk City is really significant.

"What are these messy people doing?" The tall old priest frowned, somewhat impatiently.

"Can't you see for yourself?" The short old priest retorted, continuing, "They're all from Moonlight City. So many were selected, there must be some who can't sense divine power. That small place is poorly managed... but to trouble an old man like me, I'll show them."

"Isn't Price's son supposed to be pretty good?"

"Average, I heard Price mention it. In a place like Moonlight City, he can be considered good, but now, it's just so-so."

The two priests were only slightly interested in the students from Moonlight City, including Little Price, while completely ignoring the others, including Jiang Junming.

Jiang Junming was looking around, and everyone had already entered. The teacher in the green robe cleared his throat and said, "The will of the god is justice and fairness. Don't even think about cheating in the Church Academy. Now, everyone, start praying to the god you believe in."
