Chapter 55: Chapter 53 Bronze Level, Molten Lava Cave (4000 words, please vote) Chapter 55: Chapter 53 Bronze Level, Molten Lava Cave (4000 words, please vote) After returning from Demon Capital Academy, Su Yuan resumed his normal study life.
Although he was already a specially recruited student, he still had to attend classes.
Courses like “Great Flame Geography” and “Blue Sea Star General Language” were not just for the college entrance examination but because they were useful.
As for skill practice and other courses, he could skip them and focus entirely on cultivating star power to reach the Bronze Level as soon as possible.
Not many people in the academy knew that Su Yuan went to Demon Capital for the special recruitment assessment.
But once the results of Su Yuan’s assessment were out, Guangchuan Fourth Middle School and even the Guangchuan Municipal Education Bureau immediately launched a massive publicity campaign!
The sound of firecrackers and the beating of drums filled the air!
In front of the teaching building of Fourth Middle School, the banner that originally congratulated Chen Jiujun on becoming a specially recruited student of Wanzhou was moved aside.
The central spot was given to a banner for Su Yuan:
“Congratulations to our student Su Yuan for passing the special recruitment assessment of Demon Capital Academy with outstanding results and becoming a specially recruited student of Demon Capital Academy!”
It was too exaggerated!
That was not all.
Many local companies in Guangchuan also approached Su Yuan for endorsements.
“Nine Walnuts” and “Imperial Flower Show” were fine.
But even the “Concentrated Nine Flavors Earth Rejuvenation Pills” sought him out…
Now, in Guangchuan City, everyone knew about this specially recruited student from Demon Capital called “Su Yuan.”
Of course, Su Yuan did not want such high-profile attention.
But even the opportunity to go to Demon Capital was given by Wang Haiping.
He could not stop the education bureau from publicizing it.
It was considered fortunate they did not require too much cooperation from him for the promotion.
It took a good one or two weeks before the topics of “Su Yuan, specially recruited student from Demon Capital” and “One City, Three Special Recruits” finally dropped from Guangchuan City’s trending searches.
Time flew by, and it was already mid-July, more than a month since the college entrance examination in early June.
During this period, there was the college entrance examination, filling in applications, admissions, and graduation trips…

The outside world was bustling.
But Su Yuan seemed isolated from the world.
Every day, besides eating and sleeping, he would go to a nearby professional cultivation hall to absorb and refine star power.
Even in Guangchuan City, there were four or five such cultivation halls.
They provided a quiet place specifically for cultivation and were equipped with basic barriers.
It was not convenient to always cultivate at home.
First, his parents were home, and there were often guests.
Secondly, sometimes controlling star power poorly would mess up his room or even damage the furniture.
Although the cultivation hall charged fees, Su Yuan had now sold a few Bronze Level star cores and had tens of thousands to spend, so he was not short of money for the time being.
The cultivation hall Su Yuan chose was called Pan Da, mainly because it was close to home, just 15 minutes away.
When the owner saw that it was Su Yuan coming to cultivate, although it was not entirely free, he directly offered a 90% discount as an advertisement opportunity.
“Cultivate at Pan Da, the choice of top specially recruited students!”
…
This noon, in a VIP cultivation room at Pan Da Cultivation Hall.
Accompanied by a high-pitched phoenix cry, a strong spatial fluctuation filled the entire cultivation room.
Su Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
His gaze was sharp and his divine light was captivating!
“Finally, Bronze Level!”
Feeling the massive torrent of thick star power within him, a faint smile appeared on Su Yuan’s face.
Since absorbing a large number of Heavenly Sweet Fruits in the Divine Tree Secret Realm, he had already reached the Ninth Stage Limit.
However, breaking through to the Bronze Level to become a true Star Card Master was a step that had stumped countless people.
It was truly challenging!
Now, after more than two months of relentless cultivation day and night, he had finally broken through to the Bronze Level just before the academy’s opening!
After a while, calming his excited mood, Su Yuan sat cross-legged again and entered a state of introspection.
The star power vortex in his chest had significantly expanded, with a tremendous increase in both the quantity and intensity of star power!
If he were to face the Golden-eyed Silver-winged Tiger from the sixth wave of the Soul Comforting Mysterious Burial Tablet again now, he would definitely have it in the bag.
It would not be as difficult as before.
“However, this is not the end…”
The Bronze Level marked the official beginning of the path of a Star Card Master.
After advancing to the Bronze Level, as expected, he received five new skill slots.
With a flash of his ring, Su Yuan held a blue and a green card in his hand.
These were the [Space Cut] obtained from the Soul Comforting Mysterious Burial Tablet and the [Holy Light Baptism] given by Wang Haiping.
Su Yuan focused his mind.
The brilliance of [Holy Light Baptism] intensified and disappeared first, embedding itself around the Soul Card Azure Sky Phoenix.
Looking at the [Space Cut] left in his hand, Su Yuan’s gaze sharpened, and he used it without hesitation.
However, this time, it was as a soul skill!
For Star Card Masters of different levels, due to their capacity, there was a limit on the grade of star cards they could embed.
Star Apprentices could embed only green star cards at most.
Starting from the Bronze Level, with every two levels of star power advancement, the grade of star cards that could be embedded also increased by one tier.
In other words, star power level +2 meant star card grade +1, specifically:
Bronze, Silver, the highest grade of embedded star cards is blue.
Gold, Shining Star, the highest grade of embedded star cards is purple.
Radiant Moon, Burning Sun, the highest grade of embedded star cards is gold.
Only above Burning Sun can red star cards be embedded.
Of course, this was the theoretical grade limit.
In practice, even among high-level Star Card Masters, it was rare for any card to reach the grade limit.
White, green, and blue were fine.
But star cards of purple Epic grade and above were extremely rare.
Usually, out of several Shining Star Level Star Card Masters, not many would have even one purple-grade star card!
