Chapter 1931: Condor Sama’s Position Is Threatened
In front of the Eastern Deity Gate, a group of people stood. Aside from Ye Futian and the other eight candidates, all the members they brought to Eastern Deity Island were also present.
The cultivators who were qualified to enter the Core Island of Eastern Deity Island could bring along one other person with them. Of course, the others merely accompanied them and would not receive benefits. However, Eastern Deity Island allowed them to tag along so that the candidates would feel comfortable.
“Everyone, please enter. There will be people to welcome you on the island,” a goddess of Eastern Deity Island instructed the crowd. The Eastern Deity Gate before them glowed with ethereal light. The crowd nodded their heads. One by one, they stepped forward and entered the Eastern Deity Gate.
“Let us head in,” Ye Futian said. Their group advanced. They naturally brought along Jun Qiuyan and immediately stepped through the gate.
After stepping through the Eastern Deity Gate, they entered into an ethereal place. When they emerged, they felt a refreshing sensation that made them feel very comfortable. Fragrances swept over them, and beautiful scenery filled their fields of vision.
This place was like Shangri-la. Birds sang, and flowers filled the air with their fragrances. The air of goddesses swept over them. A group of goddesses dressed in white was waiting there. When they saw the cultivators emerging, the goddesses came forward and bowed slightly.
Ye Futian saw a beautiful woman approach him. She gently said, “Congratulations, Pavilion Master Ye.”
It was Bai Mu, the goddess who had invited him to Eastern Deity Island. The members of Eastern Deity Island naturally had their own means to come here. They did not need to pass through the Eastern Deity Gate.
“Goddess, you are too kind.” Ye Futian smiled slightly as he bowed back at her. The other goddesses who came forward were also those who invited the other eight candidates here. However, Jiang Jiuming had not actually been invited. He had come on his own accord.
Right then, an extremely beautiful woman with an otherworldly temperament appeared. Even among the various goddesses, she still stood out from the crowd. She was breathtaking. She walked over to Jiang Jiuming and bowed slightly as she said, “We did not expect that Young Master Jiang would come. Forgive our lapse in hospitality. Island Lord asked me to come and welcome you.”
Her words caused the surrounding people to reveal strange looks. Island Lord had personally sent someone to welcome Jiang Jiuming?
That meant that Jiang Jiuming’s identity was extraordinary.
Ye Futian also revealed a pondering look. Even though Jun Qiuyan was a member of a top force of the Penglai Continent, Eastern Deity Island was not that concerned about whether he was alive or dead. Ye Futian was controlling jun Qiuyan, and the members of Eastern Deity Island did not question it. They seemed to leave Ye Futian to his own devices.
However, their attitude towards Jiang Jiuming was so different. From this, one could tell how huge the difference between the two of them was.
This meant that Jiang Jiuming’s identity was not something that Jun Qiuyan, a young master of a force of the Penglai Continent, could compare with. What did this mean?

It seemed clear that Jiang Jiuming came from a force even more powerful than a top force of the Penglai Continent. Even the Island Lord of Eastern Deity Island had sent her greetings.
“Island Lord is too kind. I came without being invited this time, so I should be asking her forgiveness instead,” Jiang Jiuming replied with a faint smile. He had the air of a handsome young man that made people feel comfortable around him.
“Eastern Deity Island has a rule that whoever has obtained an Eastern Deity Token may enter the island. Young Master Jiang does not need to be so apologetic. Eastern Deity Island is honored to have you here,” the woman continued politely.
When Jun Qiuyan, who was being controlled, overheard the conversation between them, he felt his heart turn cold. This was the place that he had always wanted to enter. It was just that he had never imagined that he would do so in such a fashion.
However, what was even more humiliating was that when he arrived here, the members of Eastern Deity Island did not question the situation he was in. Yet, they were so polite to another cultivator.
“Goddess Bai, for the sake of Jun clan, let me leave Eastern Deity Island,” Jun Qiuyan pleaded. His voice sounded exceptionally frail and weak. He seemed to be begging the members of Eastern Deity Island to let him go.
Jun Qiuyan was also invited here by Bai Mu. He hated Bai Mu. If Bai Mu had not stopped him back then when they were outside Eastern Deity Island, he would have known Ye Futian’s level of ability. In the Penglai Deity Region, no matter what he did, he couldn’t end up in such a predicament. On the continent, Ye Futian would have died miserably.
Yet, because of Bai Mu, he had given Ye Futian some leeway and had not forcefully made a move. Thus, he had ended up in his current miserable state.
However, even though his hatred for her burned intensely inside of him, he still spoke in a pleading tone. He did not dare to reveal any of his hatred. He only wished that Eastern Deity Island would take into consideration that he was from the Jun clan. After all, this was Eastern Deity Island; they had the power to help him.
Bai Mu looked at Jun Qiuyan. She seemed somewhat troubled. She indeed invited jun Qiuyan, and his status was indeed extraordinary. He was a member of a top force of the Penglai Continent. In a different situation, she would have certainly helped him. However, Jun Qiuyan had actively sought out Ye Futian, resulting in the outcome today.
Now, Ye Futian was a person whom the Island Lord had personally mentioned. She could not be concerned about Jun Qiuyan’s fate then.
She looked at the woman who had walked out just now. The other party’s beautiful eyes had landed on Jun Qiuyan.
“Are you Goddess Huang?” Jun Qiuyan asked gently as he looked at the woman. This Goddess Huang was rumored to be a disciple whom the Eastern Deity Island Island Lord especially favored. Her status was above all the others. Even on Eastern Deity Island, her position was extremely high.

Goddess Huang glanced at Jun Qiuyan and said, “Young Master Jun should also know the rules of Eastern Deity Island. Since you entered Eastern Deity Island, you agreed that your life and death are up to fate. Our Eastern Deity Island will not get involved. I apologize for being unable to do anything.”
Jun Qiuyan’s face was as pale as ash. He felt a sense of despair. Even here, the members of Eastern Deity Island would not interfere.
These b*tches.
Would they offend the Jun clan just because Ye Futian was more outstanding than he was?
Regardless, the Jun clan was still a huge entity on the Penglai Continent.
Ye Futian had not said anything all this while. Even if Jun Qiuyan begged, Ye Futian would let him do as he pleased. At the same time, Ye Futian was also observing the cultivators of Eastern Deity Island. When he saw the reaction of Goddess Huang, Ye Futian speculated that with Eastern Deity Island’s current ability, they might not need to be concerned about the Jun clan.
Maybe the declining Eastern Deity Island was far more powerful than what people imagined?
“Everyone, please enter the island,” Goddess Huang said as she led the crowd forward. She accompanied Jiang Jiuming and chatted casually with him. The others had their own goddesses who invited them here. Bai Mu stood beside Ye Futian and gently said, “Pavilion Master Ye, your achievements on Eastern Deity Island have been amazing.”
“Goddess, you speak too highly of me,” Ye Futian replied with a smile. Everything that occurred on Eastern Deity Island probably could not escape their sight. After all, this was originally the other party’s territory.
At that moment, a silhouette flew over to where they were from afar. This silhouette was wearing a fiery-red robe that was exceptionally eye-catching. Her temperament was also outstanding. The formless flames that emanated from her body were especially powerful.
“Zi Feng,” Goddess Huang exclaimed with a smile as she saw the person who was approaching. The silhouette, who was approaching them, was actually the phoenix whom Ye Futian had encountered under the wutong.
Zi Feng’s gaze was instead focused on Ye Futian. She stepped forward and actually stood next to Ye Futian. This caused him to reveal a strange look.
“Is she the progeny of Lord Phoenix?” Jiang Jiuming asked. Goddess Huang nodded slightly and answered, “Zi Feng is the daughter of Lord Phoenix.”
Jiang Jiuming glanced over at Zi Feng with a serious look in his eyes. When Zi Feng noticed his gaze, she similarly swept a glance at him. Her eyes seemed to contain a frightening divine fire. It actually caused Jiang Jiuming to feel a sharp pain in his eyes. He secretly felt that it was incredible.
Back when Lord Phoenix was cultivating the Divine Fire of Wutong, it was a flame of the Great Path of the two extremes of life and death. Its might was terrifying. This Zi Feng had continued inheriting this divine fire of the Great Path. Her cultivation was absolutely terrifying, and her potential was extremely high.
“The seniors of my clan have great admiration for Lord Phoenix,” Jiang Jiuming said softly. He then looked at Zi Feng, “If the opportunity arises in the future, Goddess Zi Feng can come visit my Jiang clan.”
Zi Feng looked at Jiang Jiuming but did not respond. She did not know who Jiang Jiuming was.
“Zi Feng, Young Master Jiang is from the ancient royal family Jiang clan. If you have the chance in the future, you can visit their clan,” Goddess Huang explained. This astonished the surrounding people. The surname Jiang was actually from that ancient royal family that had existed for countless eons.
He was from there. Shangguan Qiuye was slightly surprised. She had previously speculated Jiang Jiuming’s identity. Now that she had confirmation, her heart wavered. The ancient royal family Jiang clan’s ability was no weaker than that of Eastern Deity Island back in the day. They had giant level existences. In the present day, the ancient royal family Jiang clan would be more powerful than Eastern Deity Island.
Cultivators from thousands of continents had come here to train from experience. They wanted to obtain fateful encounters of the Great Path. Yet, for the ancient royal family, they did not need to do so. They lacked nothing. Even extremely precious pills and elixirs would not be so precious to the ancient royal family.
Ye Futian naturally understood when he saw the slight changes in the look in Shangguan Qiuye’s eyes. So Jiang Jiuming was from the ancient royal family.
The situation should be the same as that of the forces with giant figures Ye Futian had encountered previously in the Original Realm. Jiang Jiuming might be the first cultivator from such a force that he had encountered ever since he arrived in the Divine Prefecture.
“Island Lord has already agreed to let me follow you to train after you leave Eastern Deity Island,” Zi Feng explained to Ye Futian softly as she stood next to him. This caused Shangguan Qiuye to stop in her tracks for a moment. Her gaze was frozen.
Coming to Eastern Deity Island to train this time was truly exciting.
First, Jun Qiuyan’s cultivation had been crippled. Later, Shangguan Qiuye encountered a cultivator of the ancient royal family Jiang clan. Now, the daughter of Lord Phoenix, the Sacred Phoenix of Wutong Island, wanted to follow Ye Futian out to train!
What was going on?
She was the divine bird of Wutong Island, an existence that even an eighth-tier cultivator could not handle. For countless years, numerous cultivators had sought her out or coveted the Divine Fire of Wutong, but no one had ever succeeded.
Yet, now, the divine bird had proactively claimed that the Island Lord had given her agreement. Zi Feng would follow Ye Futian to train in the outside world. This was practically unbelievable.
Shangguan Qiuye’s beautiful eyes looked at Ye Futian. No one could tell what emotion was in that gaze.
However, at that moment, behind them, Condor Sama’s feathers were all standing straight up. Condor Sama’s position was threatened!

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
