If the initial clash between Li Yuan and Hoffman only made these Flying Heaven Warriors and Top Grade Origin Martial Artists raise their eyebrows without too much surprise,
then when they saw Li Yuan unleash the ‘Milky Way Convergence’ True Intent of Spear Technique and easily defeat Hoffman,
including dozens of Flying Heaven Warriors, everyone in this higher-tier Spectator Space was amazed and even shocked.
Technique advancement becomes increasingly difficult the further one progresses.
Yin Man, Harmon, Hoffman, Jin Huguo, Kunale, and others who could be considered top geniuses of Blue Star—ordinarily, Blue Star would produce only ten to twenty such geniuses a year.
Most of them only need a little over a year to advance from intial entry into the Fourth Level to achieving Subtlety in the spirit. Read exclusive adventures at M V L
And from spiritual Subtlety to the Initial Rank of the Fifth Stage?
With their higher Physical Quality and average spiritual power reaching above level 20, most of them also require over a year.
How about progressing from the Initial Rank of the Fifth Stage to breaking through to the Intermediate Rank? The pace would be even slower.
After all, Initial Rank Fifth Stage techniques are already sufficient to establish one as a Top Grade Origin Martial Artist.
Then moving on to the Fifth Stage High Rank, Fifth Stage Perfection… each step forward, the difficulty increases exponentially.
Under normal circumstances, for these top geniuses of Blue Star, being able to reach Fifth Stage Perfect Skill within the next ten years (before the age of 30), the baseline for becoming a Flying Heaven Warrior… would be considered a great success.
Even many will be stuck at the Fifth Stage High Rank.
Progressing in skill is not something that can be achieved just by spending time on it.
Many so-called Martial Path geniuses hit a limit at some point and often find themselves unable to break through the bottleneck, because those bottlenecks are usually their talent bottlenecks as well.
From the Fifth Stage to the Sixth Stage? It’s as difficult as reaching for the heavens.
Many Flying Heaven Warriors, as dazzling in their youth as Harmon and the others, achieving Fifth Stage Perfection as Prime Warriors, still could not break through the Sixth Stage techniques even after their transformation into the Flying Heaven Level souls upon entering the Flying Heaven Realm.
Many Flying Heaven Warriors in human civilization haven’t even reached Sixth Stage technique standards.
What about Li Yuan? How old is he really?
“It’s rare enough for Yin Man and Harmon to have reached the Fifth Stage in their sophomore year, with maybe one or two appearing in the Blue Star competition each year, and some years not even one.”
“Someone like Dantai Feng, we might see emerge from Blue Star only every few years, and that’s quite remarkable.”
“Li Yuan is even more monstrous. He’s younger than Dantai Feng and progressing even faster. It’s been what, just three months since he achieved spiritual Subtlety? That’s too fast.”
“Could he be at the same genius level as Fang Hai?”
“I feel he’s stronger than Yu Jinghe!”
“Yu Jinghe’s performance in the Blue Star competition years ago was only slightly better than Dantai Feng’s, but not by this much.”
“Xia Country, is it about to produce another Star Master?”
“Become a Star Master? I doubt it!” Many Flying Heaven Warriors could not help but discuss and even argue among themselves.
In the face of Dantai Feng, they could still maintain a somewhat condescending attitude, quite composed.
But Li Yuan? Too monstrous.
Achieving the Intermediate Rank of the Fifth Stage in his freshman year, since the establishment of the Martial Path entrance exam on Blue Star, there have been very few with such accomplishments.
“No wonder the Star Master came to watch Li Yuan.”
“The Star Master indeed has foresight.” Many Flying Heaven Warriors couldn’t help but look towards the figure in black.
Suddenly.
Buzz~ The mysterious figure in black sitting in the seat vanished into thin air.
Clearly, he had seen what he wanted to in this melee.
“Heh heh.”
“Gentlemen.” Dean Hai smiled faintly: “He is a student I have taught.”
“Old Hai, you’ve hit the jackpot!”
“What dumb luck.”
“I have to go back and check why we at Starry Sky University didn’t recruit him.” the other Flying Heaven Warriors couldn’t help but tease.
They were the backbone of humanity’s defense, and although they nominally belonged to different countries and powers, most had good relations with each other, many even being close as life-and-death comrades.
These Flying Heaven Warriors were well aware that, when facing Alien Civilizations, they had only one label on them—humans of the Seven Stars Civilization.
…
“Real dog luck.”
Li Yang, listening to Dean Hai boast, couldn’t help but mutter under his breath, “His teaching? What did he teach? Wasn’t it us who toiled in sparring?”
“He just spends his days fishing by the lake.” Li Yang kept on complaining.
“If you have such a big complaint, should I go and report it to Dean Hai?” Dean Xu said with a smile.
“There’s no need for that, sis.” Li Yang laughed: “Complaints aside, all in jest, I won’t joke about my future.”
Dean Xu shook her head with a smile, understanding Li Yang’s character.
“Li Yuan’s Spear Technique is indeed terrifying.” Dean Xu looked at the screen showing Li Yuan and couldn’t help but remark, “At the Intermediate Rank of the Fifth Stage, even for someone with a Flying Heaven Level soul, this progress is too fast.”
“Indeed, it’s ridiculously fast.” Li Yang couldn’t help but add.
A Flying Heaven Level soul? That’s just an aid.
The key lies in Li Yuan’s own astonishing Comprehension Transformation.
“With such speed in progression, I’d believe it if he surpasses us next year.” Li Yang said.
Dean Xu slightly nodded.
The two of them were both at the Fifth Stage High Rank skill.
Merely in terms of skill level, compared to the current Li Yuan, they already had no overwhelming advantage.
“Can he challenge for first place?” Dean Xu’s eyes held a flicker of light.
“Hard to say.” Li Yang shook his head slightly: “So far, Nevsky of Ross Country has revealed Fifth Stage Intermediate strength…Harmon, Yin Man, a few others, might have broken through, or perhaps not.”
“We can only say, Li Yuan has a good chance,” Li Yang said: “After all, there are still ten days until the finals.”
“With Li Yuan’s rate of progress, ten days might be worth several months to the others.”
Both harbored a trace of anticipation.
