"This is an Astral Power Index Tester!
"The first floor of this training room is suitable for those with an Astral Power Index between 100 and 300.
"The second floor is between 400 and 600.
"The third floor is between 600 and 1000.
"Normally speaking, the Astral Power Index of a Star Lord is above 1000 in a stable state. Some Star State warriors can reach 1000 with special secret techniques, but it's impossible for them to do so in a normal state."
After Ciro left, a Star Lord stepped forward and explained the training room to everybody.
Su Ping was surprised. He looked at Kleisabet and Ibetaluna who were gathered around him and asked in a low voice, "What's the Astral Power Index?"
Kleisabet was stunned for a moment. He said in shock, "You don't know? Well … It's nothing special. The Astral Power Index is the total amount of astral power in one's body. It can be measured with a device, and it can also reflect one's combat ability. "
Su Ping was stunned for a moment, then realized what was going on.
It was like measuring the concentration of astral power in one's body.
He asked a few more questions and learned from Kleisabet's answers that the Astral Power Index wasn't a combat ability index. Although the Federation's technology was quite advanced, it was still impossible to accurately measure a person's comprehensive combat ability index. One's combat ability could only be determined based on the Astral Power Index, secret techniques and battle videos.
After all, the so-called combat ability was the ultimate strength that included mental power, environmental reactions and body resistances!
Probably only a perverted system like the system could accurately measure that.
Even so, the Astral Power Index was still an important indicator of combat ability!
"You can take the test here. This is a medium or small Astral Power Tester designed for students like you. It can accurately measure your astral power level below 1000."
The Star Lord recommended with a smile.
Hearing his words, many people were eager to give it a try. However, the majority of the people had calm expressions. It was as if they were used to it and did not have much interest.
"Let me have a try."
A brawny young man with thick hair stepped out and said.
He looked like a sturdy bear, full of wildness. The armor and clothing on his body also looked rough and solid. Some people recognized him. He had performed well in the previous battle. According to the official statistics of the virtual game, he was ranked in the top 20 of the top 100!
The Star Lord nodded with a smile and turned on the device.
The device was in the shape of an upright test tube. It was dark green in color and had a glass-like surface. After the young man walked in, the device closed and lines of data appeared on the surface of the dark green glass-like surface.
The data changed rapidly, and a faint red mist appeared in the test tube, surrounding the young man.
A moment later, the mist dissipated and was sucked into the various holes in the instrument. Then, the complicated data froze. The front formed a few words in the Federation Common Language, followed by a string of numbers.
Star Power Index: 823!
There was an uproar in the crowd. Among those who had calm expressions earlier, there were quite a few whose expressions changed slightly. They revealed shocked and ugly expressions.
"More than eight hundred. Damn it!"
Kleisabet exclaimed in a low voice. "His astral power density is even higher than mine, and he's still in his normal state without any secret techniques. That's unbelievable. His astral power density is as high as that of the advanced phase of the Star State!"
Ibetaluna also took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "There are indeed a lot of monsters."
Nobody expected that the unattractive young man would have such a high astral power index.
Unfortunately, there were no detailed competitions in the later battles; only the top ten, including Guan, Yaji and Ji, were determined. Nobody knew their real combat ability.
"Only eight hundred?"
The brawny young man walked out and frowned when he saw the data. He scratched his head and said, "I thought it would be more than a thousand!"
Many people nearby rolled their eyes.
How could it be more than a thousand under normal circumstances?
According to the Star Lord, only the Star Lords could have an astral power index of more than a thousand under normal circumstances, and the experts among them could have thousands of astral power indexes.
"You're only in the Fate State. Such an astral power density is not bad; it must have something to do with your constitution. You might be able to make it to the top ten or even top five in the galaxy if you practice your skills and laws more!"
Said the Star Lord with a smile; he was quite amazed too.
In terms of astral power density alone, this young man was definitely one of the best among this group of people.
After all, those kids were all in the Fate State; the regular peak of the Fate State didn't have an astral power index higher than a hundred!
However, the young man's astral power was eight times that of the peak of the Fate State!
Eight times was not to be underestimated; it was extremely difficult to make any progress when one was at the peak.
"Laws are too complicated and annoying!" The young man shook his head and mumbled after hearing the Star Lord's words, "It's better to break all laws with brute force!"
The Star Lord's lips twitched, but he didn't bother to say anything else.
Break all laws with brute force? That wasn't a bad idea, but it was too crude and barbaric. How much effort would he have to waste?
Nowadays, it was always better to use one's brain than one's hands.
Of course, it would be pointless if the young man didn't have a brain. The Star Lord didn't say anything else; the geniuses who made it to the top hundred had at least the tutelage of a Star Lord; he didn't need to teach them such a simple thing.
"Let me have a try too!"
Someone else said enthusiastically after the young man left.
The device was soon activated again, and this time, the astral power index was 305!
"Your astral power index is not bad. You've learned a lot about skills and laws, but your strength isn't good enough. It's not bad for the regular Fate State warriors, but you still need to work on it," commented the Star Lord with a smile.
"Okay."
The young man was frustrated, but he accepted the guidance obediently.
Then, more and more people stepped forward to take the test. However, their astral power indexes were generally between 300 and 700. Most of them had an astral power index of five hundred, which was normal among the geniuses.
An astral power index below five hundred was quite low among the geniuses.
On the other side, two young men were standing next to Linghu Jian. Both of them were distinguished students of Sword Deity. One of them was Sword Maniac, second only to Linghu Jian in the academy. The other was also one of the top hundred geniuses in the academy.
"Boss, do you want to take the test? I think your astral power index is enough to instantly crush those guys." The charming girl who had made it to the top hundred was standing in front of Linghu Jian obediently.
Linghu Jian said indifferently, "I've already taken the test in my master's place. There's no need to take the test again."
"Is that so? Boss, what's your astral power index? "asked the young man curiously.
After a brief silence, Linghu Jian said, "Only 920."
"… Only?"
The young man was stunned.
An astral power index of 920 was already close to the peak of the advanced phase of the Star State!
It had to be noted that the guy was only in the Fate State!
"Mine is only 790," said Sword Maniac in a low voice with a sigh.
The young man next to him was instantly rendered speechless.
"Brother Su, do you want to take the test?"
Kleisabet, who was next to Su Ping, asked curiously.
He had noticed that Su Ping didn't know anything about astral power indexes, so he assumed that he hadn't taken the test. He was quite curious about how high Su Ping's astral power index was, considering the invincible strength he had displayed in the continent.
So far, the highest astral power index was the first young man, who had reached 823.
Hearing that, Ibetaluna couldn't help but turn around and look at Su Ping with curiosity and expectation.
Su Ping thought for a moment and said, "That's a good idea."
He also wanted to take the test and find out how strong he was.
He didn't have such advanced equipment when he was growing up in the cultivation sites.
"Is there anyone else …"
The Star Lord was about to open his mouth when he saw Su Ping take action. He was instantly rendered speechless; his eyes glittered with anticipation.
The other contestants, who were still hesitating whether or not they should expose themselves, noticed the brief silence. They were all stunned when they saw Su Ping step out. Then, they widened their eyes in anticipation.
They were all curious about the young man who had won the championship. They wondered what his astral power index would be, given the horrifying strength he had unleashed.
The Star Lord turned on the device for Su Ping, just like before.
Su Ping entered the device.
Very soon, Su Ping felt the red mist leaking out of the vents and covering his body. He felt itchy and numb. He didn't use the Astral Painting in his body; he simply relaxed his body and slowly activated his cells.
Very soon, data popped up on the device in front of him and flashed.
One minute, two minutes …
Five minutes later …
All of a sudden, the red mist dispersed, and the data on the device disappeared. A red X was displayed in the Federation language.
It exceeded the standard!
Hiss!
There was dead silence. Everybody in front of the device was stunned. The Star Lord who was in charge of the test and the other Star Lords who were accompanying him were all stunned.
Exceeded the standard? So to speak, Su Ping's astral power index was more than a thousand?
That was the norm!
They were dumbfounded. Astral power index didn't represent combat ability. For example, Star Lords like them could unleash a destructive power of five thousand with a hundred astral power, while those in the Fate State could only unleash a destructive power of two hundred to three hundred. However, astral power was still astral power; it was a solid foundation!
"Is he really in the Fate State?" The Star Lords couldn't help but have such weird thoughts.
The contestants in front of the device looked at each other in bewilderment.
Linghu Jian's expression became gloomy.
The Dragon Emperor, the Holy King, Oasis Gray, and the others were all speechless after recovering from their shock. This result was both unexpected and … reasonable at the same time.
That guy is truly a monster!
They all had the same thought in their minds.
Su Jin 'er slightly raised her eyebrows, but didn't show much of a reaction. She had already noticed that Su Ping had a lot of astral power in his body during the previous battle; it would have been even more shocking if the real data had been measured.
Unfortunately, the device was too small.
She shook her head and left.
Whoosh.
Su Ping walked out of the device and realized what was going on when he saw the reaction outside. He knew that he had accumulated a lot of astral power, but he didn't expect it to be that great. Was it because of the Chaos Star Chart?
The Star Lord realized what was going on and laughed awkwardly. "Well, our device seems to have underestimated our champion. As expected of the strongest genius in Silvy. Impressive!"
With that, he thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask Lord Ciro for a better instrument later."
Su Ping was stunned for a moment. He shook his head and said, "Forget it. There's no need for that. I'm just doing a random test."
After saying that, he walked back into the crowd.
The Star Lord smiled bitterly and didn't insist. In his opinion, a genius like Su Ping must have had a master who had tested the data for him. Su Ping already knew what his astral power index was; he was just showing off.
However, he had to admit that he was rendered speechless by the show.
A Fate State warrior with an astral power index as good as a Star Lord's; it was still unbelievable, even though it was only the lowest threshold of the Star Lord State.
"Brother Su … Awesome!" Kleisabet didn't know what to say to Su Ping after he returned. He could only sigh in admiration and put on a bitter smile.
Su Ping didn't know what to say, so he simply smiled.
The others seemed to have lost interest after Su Ping's test. None of them stepped forward to take the test. Geniuses like them had always been a huge setback for the others, but they were all hurt by Su Ping's performance.
Everybody dispersed after the Star Lords introduced them. Some went to the training rooms, some went to the small mysterious realms, and some simply went to treat their wounds.
Su Ping didn't leave; he chose to train in the training room on the third floor.
The cultivation room on the third floor was filled with surging astral powers. Inside the room, the astral powers were like a beating heart. The astral powers were pushing the astral powers into Su Ping's body through his pores!
Su Ping had never heard of such a way of training.
This was simply like wearing an oxygen mask. Moreover, it was a super strong type. Even if you were to lie down here, the cultivation room would automatically help you cultivate!
It was true that the poor relied on mutations, while the rich relied on technology.
Having experienced the benefits, Su Ping didn't bother to go to the small Mysterious Realm of Space and Time. He simply cultivated there. It was said that the small Mysterious Realm of Space and Time was connected to a battlefield in the void where people could fight.
Su Ping wasn't short of combat experience. He might as well spend the time studying his second Astral Painting.
Drawing the second Astral Painting required a lot of astral power. Although Su Ping had accumulated enough astral power, he was able to do whatever he wanted in the training room. It didn't matter even if he drew the wrong Astral Painting. His speed of drawing the Astral Painting was significantly improved, and he gradually grasped the knack of it.
Time flew.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. The spaceship shuttled through one solar system after another, before it finally jumped into a vast universe.
In the dark and vast universe, a golden statue that was as tall as seven or eight planets stood in the void. It was like a majestic giant with a battle-ax in its hand. It was full of domineering power and looked down on everything around it.
