"…"
Su Ping was silent for a moment.
He sensed the ruthlessness of the Creator from Elder Yan's words.
Life was created, faith was harvested, and then abandoned.
Perhaps to the Supremes, they viewed the lifeforms they created as pure energy.
If human beings were created too, would they suffer the same fate?
Then, was human beings' resistance meaningful? Was it the right thing to do?
Su Ping slightly shook his head; he already had an answer. He knew that it had nothing to do with right or wrong; it was just a matter of their standpoint.
That was the law of the jungle.
There were a lot of naïve and pitiful people in the world; they were so immersed in right and wrong that they forgot where they stood and took sides based on simple right and wrong, as if they didn't have a sense of self.
"Do you think it's cruel?"
Elder Yan suddenly asked when he saw Su Ping's expression.
Su Ping glanced at him and shook his head. "That's just the way things are. It's nothing."
Elder Yan nodded and said, "People's views on the same thing will change according to their level and experience. You might think the same way if you become a Celestial. You can't truly understand people's thoughts until you reach that level. A lot of misunderstandings in this world stem from the estrangement between different groups. That's why people don't really feel the same way."
Su Ping nodded and didn't pursue the matter further. In any case, his master had done him a great favor.
He condensed the power of faith in the depth of his Force Field and condensed 18 strands of power of faith. Adding the 23 strands of power of faith that he had already condensed, he had a total of 41 strands of power of faith. The power of faith wasn't simply doubled; it was several times stronger than before!
"You've completed all six Star State rings. You're close to the peak of the Star State; you'll have to rely on your own perception and luck if you want to make further progress. You're one of the top three Star State experts in the entire Federation, if not the best. You have a good chance of reaching the top fifty on the Divine Lord Rank," said Elder Yan.
"Let's give it a try right now," said Su Ping.
Testing was better than guessing.
He also wanted to see the limits of his strength.
Elder Yan nodded. The two of them soon arrived at the virtual arena city. Just as they were about to head to the arena building, the void in front of them suddenly split open, and a slender woman with purple hair and a frosty face appeared. She had a cold, unapproachable face.
However, the woman's indifference was melted when she saw Elder Yan. She put on a warm and friendly smile. "Senior Elder."
Elder Yan was slightly surprised. He chuckled. "Xueqing. I heard that you were wounded... how is your recovery?"
"I'm almost healed. She then looked at Su Ping and whispered, "Is this our master's new junior brother? I heard that there are two of them. One of them has a reincarnation constitution, and the other is a descendant of the Golden Crow. Who is he?"
"Your junior brother Su Ping. He has the Golden Crow bloodline."
Elder Yan smiled and said to Su Ping, "This is your fourth senior sister, Ji Xueqing. She was my master's disciple when he was still a Heavenly Lord. Now that he's a Celestial, she's also a Heavenly Lord."
Su Ping sized her up after hearing that. He didn't expect to run into a noble and rare Heavenly Lord in the outside world, not to mention that she was his senior brother and senior sister.
Su Ping bowed and said, "Nice to meet you, senior sister."
"It's our first meeting, so I don't have any gifts for you. This is a soft armor for you. It can resist the attacks of regular Star Lords except for the top ones." Ji Xueqing casually took out a colorful armor and flew it to Su Ping.
Su Ping was stunned for a moment. He quickly thanked her and accepted the armor.
Elder Yan laughed and said, "Xueqing, you're being too stingy. That armor is useless to him. His body's defense is probably as good as the armor."
"Huh?"
Ji Xueqing was stunned. She looked at Su Ping and asked, "Isn't he in the Star State?"
"Yes, but he condensed a small world when he was in the Fate State. He's already on the Divine Lord Rank," said Elder Yan with a chuckle.
Ji Xueqing was stunned for a moment. She then sized up Su Ping and said, "So to speak, my master has recruited an incredible junior brother. He's as talented as Qin Wentian."
"More or less," said Elder Yan with a smile.
Ji Xueqing looked at Su Ping and remained silent for a moment. Then, she took out a crimson armor and said, "I'll give you this Blood-Drinking Armor. You'll be able to use it when you reach the Ascendant State."
Su Ping was stunned for a moment. He quickly said, "Senior sister, you don't have to be so polite. Elder Yan was only joking. This gift is too precious."
"Humph. Just take it!" Ji Xueqing sounded quite domineering.
Su Ping had no choice but to accept it and thank her.
"Train hard and try to reach the Ascendant State in a thousand years, so that you can deal with the future catastrophe of the universe." Ji Xueqing's expression returned to indifference. She bowed slightly to Elder Yan and vanished into thin air.
"The future catastrophe of the universe?"
Su Ping was slightly confused after Ji Xueqing left. He turned around and looked at Elder Yan.
Elder Yan shook his head and said, "That's still too far away for you to know. You'll know when you reach the Ascendant State. You should focus on your cultivation for now. After all, my master and your senior brothers and sisters will be there for you if the sky collapses."
Su Ping could only stop asking since the old man didn't say anything. He asked curiously, "This Senior Sister Xueqing seems to be quite close to you, Elder Yan."
"Of course. I was the one who taught her when my master took her in. Technically speaking, I'm sort of her master," said Elder Yan with a chuckle.
Su Ping was enlightened. No wonder this senior sister was so cold to him, but she was smiling at Elder Yan like a spring breeze.
"Let's go and take the test," said Elder Yan; he seemed even more anxious than Su Ping.
Su Ping smiled, looking forward to it too.
…
Inside the arena —
"Let's make an appointment for the top fifty," said Su Ping straightforwardly.
Elder Yan said, "Fifty straight away? Aren't you going to challenge those in the bottom sixty? Although you have a chance to reach the top fifty, it's better to do it step by step. "
"I'll just consider it practice if I fail," said Su Ping.
Elder Yan thought for a moment and realized that it made sense, so he stopped stopping him and made an appointment for Su Ping.
Very soon, the appointment was made. Su Ping put on his helmet and entered the virtual arena.
To Su Ping's surprise, his opponent was a curvaceous woman in white armor and a cape. She looked quite attractive, but the most eye-catching part was her ample breasts, which were as heavy as two mountains.
While Su Ping was sizing up, the timer began to count down.
Su Ping withdrew his gaze and summoned the Dark Dragon Hound and the Little Skeleton. He then attacked with all his strength as the battle broke out.
Boom!
Su Ping simply activated his small world. The void around him collapsed and turned dark. That was Su Ping's small world, which had been combined with his constitution. It was a pure black world.
The pure black world was like a black hole. As Su Ping dashed forward, it crashed into the woman's small world.
Sun shone brightly in the other party's small world. There were mountains and rivers, and it looked extremely warm. However, after the collision, it immediately shook violently. The river water swayed, and the laws of the small world were revealed. Lines of law patterns spread out, twisting, and on the verge of collapse.
"Qianyu!"
Su Ping suddenly slashed. His sword aura was shot out like a raindrop, piercing through everything.
After a boom, the woman's small world was broken. Su Ping slashed the holy sword in his hand, which was condensed by the power of faith and astral power in Su Ping's body.
Bang!
The power of laws was unleashed, only to be shattered by the sword aura. The woman's body was suddenly divided into three triangles. Her weapon was also a sword. The three swords were connected to each other, as if they were in a certain formation. Soon after, a holy light soared from the center of the formation and illuminated the world.
A giant arm suddenly darted out of the holy light and slashed at Su Ping with a sword.
"A secret summoning technique?" Su Ping narrowed his eyes. Some evil secret skills could summon some unknown creatures to fight for them. Those creatures weren't pets, and it was impossible to tell whether they were dead or alive, but they were extremely ferocious.
"Path of the Divine Sword, Heavenly Fall!"
Su Ping suddenly waved his sword and unleashed the power of faith. The world seemed to be frozen. Then, the sword aura burst out and cut the weird arm in half.
Bang!
The arm exploded. Su Ping flashed and paused time with the path of time.
As his magnificent astral power surged, time was indeed paused for a moment. During that moment, the woman's body exploded.
The world in front of his eyes faded away. Su Ping returned to the device and heaved a sigh of relief, feeling more or less refreshed.
He was still using some of his previous techniques, but he could unleash even more destructive power with his current strength.
"Did you win or lose?" asked Elder Yan immediately.
