In life-and-death trials, engaging in dangerous activities is unavoidable.
But in everyday life, it’s essential to evade any avoidable danger.
…Following Li Yang into the conference room, the door slowly closed behind them.
“Li Yuan,” Li Yang’s voice suddenly resonated in Li Yuan’s mind, as though whispering in his ear.
“Telepathic Communication?” A glint flashed in Li Yuan’s eyes as he telepathically responded, “Teacher.”
With Flying Heaven Level spiritual power, Telepathic Communication is an instinct, no learning required.
However, Top Grade Origin Martial Artists must learn corresponding Spiritual Secret Techniques to barely manage it.
“It seems Liu Jing’s report wasn’t wrong; your spiritual power has indeed become extremely strong,” Li Yang conveyed with a hint of emotion, “This is a military base, not a school. Be cautious, and let’s communicate via telepathy.”
“Understood,” Li Yuan nodded in response.
Quickly, Li Yang briefed Li Yuan on the gist of Liu Jing’s report.
“150 points?” Li Yuan was surprised to hear this total score.
He understood the significance of this score.
It could be said, this rating was Liu Jing staking his own ‘reputation.’
“You have Flying Heaven Level spiritual power, and I need to confirm it; merely one telepathic message isn’t enough,” Li Yang looked at Li Yuan and said, “Liu Jing mentioned, your Spiritual Attacks are very strong… Try to use one on me.”
“Be careful, Teacher,” Li Yuan said without holding back, his eyes narrowing and becoming exceptionally cold.
Boom! A powerful Spiritual Shock surged toward Li Yang like a torrent.
But immediately afterward, the confident Li Yuan felt as though he had encountered a solid dam; despite the frenzied battering, he couldn’t completely shake it.
“Teacher, can you withstand it?” Li Yuan’s voice carried a trace of surprise.
“Impressive, it is indeed Flying Heaven Level spiritual power,” Li Yang was inwardly shocked but smiled, “Are you surprised that I didn’t lose my senses completely?”
Li Yuan couldn’t help but nod.
“In terms of quality and quantity, spiritual power of Top Grade Origin Martial Artists indeed pales in comparison to Flying Heaven Level,” Li Yang spoke with a smile, “But if we’re willing to spend a great deal of time cultivating some Spiritual Secret Techniques, condensing our Spiritual Will, and merging with the heavens and earth over a long period…
then, when we’re hit by a Spiritual Shock, even if our strength is affected, maintaining lucidity is not difficult.”
“Unless your Spiritual Shock is stronger.”
Li Yuan suddenly understood.
Spiritual Shock, after all, invades the opponent’s inner world, their home field.
Although Liu Jing’s spiritual power had reached the level of a Top Grade Origin Martial Artist, his skills, willpower, and Spiritual Secret Techniques were somewhat lacking in comparison to other Top Grade Origin Martial Artists.
Li Yuan wasn’t too concerned in his heart.
Facing a formidable expert like Teacher Li Yang, even if the Spiritual Shock were successful, it would at best distract the opponent momentarily.
In a fight to the death, Top Grade Origin Martial Artists could still easily kill him.
A Spiritual Attack, after all, is supplementary.
“At eighteen and a half, with Flying Heaven Level spiritual power, 19th Rank Physical Quality, and Fifth Stage Skill, your growth rate truly exceeds my imagination,” Li Yang said as he gazed at Li Yuan, his delighted eyes also carrying a hint of complexity.
Half a year ago, when Li Yang first saw Li Yuan in Jiang City, he was just a high school senior with decent talent.
In the blink of an eye.
Li Yuan had surpassed him in spiritual power and was gradually closing in on him in terms of skill… Physical quality? Rapid progress, becoming a Prime Warrior is imminent, soon to catch up.
As for Law Creation?
In Li Yang’s view, for someone like Li Yuan, creating Laws was a trivial matter.
“The stronger I become, doesn’t that prove the excellence of your teaching, Teacher?” Li Yuan said with a smile.
“Haha, indeed,” Li Yang laughed.
He had taught many students over the years.
But in terms of overall performance, the most prodigious, indeed, had to be Li Yuan, with just over half a year of schooling.
“My mission this time in coming to get you is twofold: first, by Dean Hai’s command, to examine whether your spiritual power is at the Flying Heaven Level,” Li Yang began, “The second is to protect you. Given the potential you’ve now shown, which is faintly above that of Yu Jinghe…
if the Alien Race learns of this, they will certainly organize an assassination, and your strength is still too weak.”
“Understood,” Li Yuan nodded. Discover stories at m,v l’-NovelFull.net
The arrangements of the Alliance’s upper echelons are quite thorough.
“Thirdly, it’s about the ‘Virtual Battle’ in the upcoming worldwide Martial Arts University competition,” Li Yang said with a smile, “Previously, I had the highest expectation that you might make it into the top twenty. Now, it seems that might not be the limit. Flying Heaven Level spiritual power will cause the advancement of your Spear Technique and movement technique to skyrocket…
I can no longer guess how far you’ll go.”
“It’s a pity that Virtual Battles don’t allow the use of spiritual power; otherwise, one Spiritual Shock from you would assure first place,” Li Yang said with a hint of regret.
Li Yuan was listening.
“But do your best to push,” Li Yang said solemnly, “and strive to break into the top five or even the top three, to compete for the best Feixing slots.”
“Historically, the top three in the virtual battle will be given Feixing slots, and then some more outstanding students will be selected from the top hundred.”
“Feixing slots?” A flicker of confusion passed through Li Yuan’s eyes.
What is this?
I’ve never heard of that!
“It seems you’ve never heard of it,” Li Yang said with a smile, “Feixing slot is our colloquial term, its full name is ‘Seven Stars Martial God Inheritance Slot’, led by the Seven Stars Alliance. Legend has it that it’s an inheritance created collectively by Dongfang Ji, Lant, and other beings transcending the Flying Heaven level…”
“It is the most powerful martial path inheritance within our Seven Stars human civilization.”
“Because the location is on the distant Feixing, we colloquially call it the Feixing slot.”
Li Yuan held his breath, for just the name alone conveyed the incredible strength of this martial path inheritance.
It is definitely the civilization’s most top-grade inheritance.
“Each year, only the most elite batch of geniuses from the Seven Great Planets are qualified to receive Feixing slots,” Li Yang said with a smile, “Our Blue Star produces about ten of them every year.”
“Aside from the Global University Martial Arts Competition where people are selected, there is also the selection from the Human Martial Arts Elite Battle… For 25 to 30-year-old graduates, occasionally one or two geniuses with long preparedness and sudden success will emerge, and adding them all up, there are about over a dozen.”
“In any case, as long as you are under 30 and yet to reach the Flying Heaven level, there is hope to be selected,” Li Yang said.
Li Yuan was listening.
Perhaps, to the high echelons of the Alliance, anyone under 30 is still considered youthful, with room for cultivation.
“All in all, less than a hundred slots are available for the entire civilization each year.”
“Ten? A hundred?” Li Yuan pondered internally, indeed quite few.
Coming down to it, Xia Country probably only has one or two slots every year.
“Of course, you will definitely get one, so there’s no need to worry about that,” Li Yang said with a smile.
“Definitely?” Li Yuan was startled.
Isn’t there a selection process?
“Originally, Dean Hai planned to recommend you in your sophomore year,” Li Yang said with a smile, “but now that your spiritual power has reached the Flying Heaven level… you’re certainly in.”
“Looking at the entire civilization, a First Rank spiritual power that’s reached the Flying Heaven level; I don’t know if there’s been a second case in history,” Li Yang shrugged, “At least, I haven’t heard of it.”
Li Yuan was at a loss for words.
“But you should understand, there are still subtle differences among Feixing slots.”
“The better you perform, the more benefits you’ll receive once you arrive on Feixing,” Li Yang stated seriously, “The Global University Martial Arts Competition virtual battle is your stage; you must seize the opportunity.”
“Understood,” Li Yuan nodded emphatically.
Only about ten slots each year globally? And that’s after screening all the geniuses under the age of 30?
You should know that just the three top-tier martial schools on Blue Star together enroll 1000 students each year.
From the ages of 18 to 30, over more than a decade, that’s tens of thousands of students—each one a genius.
And then there are the many regular Martial Arts Universities.
“Getting into one of the top three martial schools is only considered a martial path genius in the conventional sense,” Li Yang lamented, “But if one gets a Feixing slot and goes to Feixing… that’s a super genius among geniuses.”
“Anyone who qualifies to go there, in the end, more than sixty percent become Flying Heaven Warriors,” Li Yang said solemnly.
“And the other thirty percent?” Li Yuan couldn’t help asking.
“Most of them die during various life-and-death trials.”
…
Li Yang then shared quite a bit more about the “Feixing slot.”
“I’ve never been there myself, and a lot of it is hearsay, just listen and take it as reference,” Li Yang said with a laugh, “Anyway, work hard.”
“Maybe then, you might even meet Senior Dongfang Ji.”
Li Yuan’s eyes brightened.
Dongfang Ji? That was his idol since childhood.
“Right,” Li Yang suddenly changed the subject, “Li Yuan, you still have one Soul-Nurturing Ancient Spirit Fruit in your possession, don’t you?”
“Would you be willing to sell it to me, your teacher?”
