Chapter 5195
Some cultivators had begun attacking the other participants as they entered the
mountain's mid-range.
These participants were mostly lone cultivators who had come to join the Dieux
Academy’s recruitment by themselves.
"James, are you not going to move to the front of the crowd and try to win the first place?”
King Marciais asked as he noticed that James was moving through the course at an
unhurried pace.
"Nope,” James replied nonchalantly.
Dieux Academy was one of the ten most influential forces in Central Plane. Numerous
prominent families and clans had sent their members to take part in the academy's event
this time.
Their recruitment was gaining a lot of attention across the different planes of existence.
However, James wanted to remain inconspicuous.
He had modified his appearance and aura. Yet, James might catch unwanted attention if
he stood out too much from the other participants. He might face a few problems if
someone were to look into his background and discover James' identity.
The mountain path grew steeper and tougher as the participants moved through the

subsequent tests.
Fortunately, the remaining tests were fairly simple for cultivators who had attained superb
powers and skills.
Soon enough, some participants had arrived near the peak of the mountain. However,
those people were forced to stop before the location for the final test.
As they caught up with the others, James and his members could also see the peak of the
mountain, which was less than a hundred meters away from them.
A huge stone wall conjured by the elder from Dieux Academy stood before them. The
participants could see several lines of strange, cryptic inscriptions on the wall.
Beside the stone wall, the elder also erected a stone tablet that carried a description of
how one could pass the test.
'The final test is very simple. Participants have to decipher and understand the scripture
shown on the wall. Once you do that, you will be able to pass through the seal and reach
the peak.”
The scripture was of obscure, mysterious origin. Even participants who had achieved ranks
greater than James’ and his members' ranks could not decipher the scripture.
"Uh..." King Marciais took a furtive glance at the scripture and furrowed his brows. Then,
he leaned in and whispered to James, "Isn't that the Genesis Path of one of the many

planes of existence?"
Those who had mastered the Genesis Path Scripture could easily make out what was
carved on the stone wall. James and his team members instantly recognized that those
lines described the Genesis Path of a plane.
The Genesis Path Scripture detailed the Genesis Path of all the different planes that
existed, including the one shown on the stone wall.
"They are making it difficult for us to keep a low profile..." James muttered in a low voice.
'This scripture is really tough." A Sovereign Sixth Rank cultivator frowned slightly as he
commented, "I can't read some of the words shown here."
Another cultivator who had more knowledge relating to the subject began, "If I am not
mistaken, this scripture describes the knowledge of a Genesis Path. It is most likely the
Genesis Path of a third-level plane or planes above that level."
"Genesis Path?!"
"We have a time limit of ten thousand years to get to the top of the mountain. Now, they
want us to learn and understand the Genesis Path of a low-level plane within that amount
of time?"
"Isn't that a bit too hard?"
"I guess we'll have to put in quite some effort to qualify as elite members of Dieux

Academy."
While some participants were busy discussing the difficult scripture, several cultivators sat
on the ground and began deciphering the scripture.
Most of the participants who had gotten this far in the assessment process were excellent,
brilliant cultivators. They could decipher and comprehend the Genesis Path if they made
an effort to.
Also, the participants could set up time formations and have more time to work on
deciphering the scripture within the formation. The academy did not specify any rules that
refrained them from doing that.
Taran looked at James. 'What do you think? Should we complete the test?"
Taran could decipher the Genesis Path of a third-level plane in just a few days. It was
honestly not a difficult task for him.
'We should." James gave a small sigh.
He had wished to stay out of the spotlight, yet fate was against him this time.
The final test was for the participants to decipher and understand the Genesis Path of a
plane. The academy did not ask them to master the Genesis Path as well.
If a cultivator could master a plane's Genesis Path, that would make them the lord of that
particular plane too. However, mastering a Genesis Path was no easy task in itself.
