"Osric King!"
Kleisaber's gaze froze, and his expression became slightly more solemn. In this year's Amir Royal Family Academy, this was the undisputed number one on the Royal Rankings!
He had challenged him before, but lost seven times in seven battles!
This should be the only person in the academy who could convince him.
Beside him, Iberta Luna also knew of the deeds of Osric King. Her body tensed up slightly, as if some monster had invaded her territory, and her body instinctively went into defense.
"You're here too?"
Osric King, with a well-built body and almost perfect proportions, brimming with strength and beauty, had the appearance of a young man. He had a head of long golden hair, soft and elegant. His gaze was like the stars, and his eyebrows were like the edge of a sword. He glanced at Kleisaber indifferently, and the corners of his mouth curled into a slight smile.
Kleisaber cleared his throat and said, "Well, I'm here to make friends … You too?"
Osric King Osric darted a look at Iberta Luna but ignored her. Then, he turned his gaze to Su Ping. His eyes were gentle, but there was a hint of arrogance in them. "I don't know where you're from, sir. If there is a chance in the future, I would like to have a match with you."
Kleisaber and Iberta Luna were surprised. They didn't know that this man was there to issue a challenge.
"I don't think it's necessary," Su Ping said helplessly.
"…"
Kleisaber didn't expect that Su Ping would turn him down so easily.
There was no rule that stated that he couldn't turn down a challenge, but as a genius, every one of them had their own pride. There was no reason for him to back down after being challenged.
Osric King Osric was surprised as well. He squinted his eyes and said, "Given your abilities, I don't think it will be difficult for you to enter the Star Zone through the selection. I don't think we'll have a chance to fight in the upcoming Star Zone Battles. If we do meet during the selection, I hope we can have a good fight."
Su Ping was speechless. Why was everyone so eager to fight? If you wanted to fight, go find the Star Lords. They would make you cry for your mom and dad.
"Sure." Su Ping didn't bother to say more. He could just beat the man up if he ran into him. It would be a waste of his breath. He might not be able to persuade Osric King Osric. Besides, if they did run into each other, there had to be a winner.
Su Ping reluctantly agreed. The smile on Osric King Osric's face faded away. Osric King Osric gave Su Ping a meaningful look and left without saying anything else.
After King Osdragon left, Claybeth and Iberta Luna, who was next to him, felt their breathing become much smoother, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them.
"Brother Su, you've offended Osric King Osric."
Klebe forced a smile.
Su Ping was surprised. "Offended?"
Seeing that Su Ping was at a loss, Klebe remembered the sincere words Su Ping had said to him. For a moment, he didn't know how to explain.
Iberta Luna pulled a long face. She didn't like that Osric King Osric. She could tell that she had been ignored. That man was too arrogant!
Even though she had heard of Zhang Xuan's deeds and knew that she wasn't confident that she could defeat him, the feeling of being disregarded made her feel infuriated.
"So be it. Brother Su, you don't have to be afraid of him!" Iberta Luna snorted.
Klebe glared at her. He understood why she was angry. He forced a smile. Before he had challenged that man many times, he had been ignored as well. Later on, the reason why he could enter Osric King Osric's line of sight was that he had defeated seven times in a row. That was how Osric King Osric remembered him and admitted that he was a good opponent.
Rather than calling him an opponent, he felt like he had become a punching bag for her to spar with.
Klebe shook his head. "That's just how he is. Brother Su, if you run into him at the selection, you have to give it your all. The fact that he's here means that he already sees you as a worthy opponent. But you turned him down. That's a slap in the face."
Su Ping had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll try my best."
Klebe forced a smile. He didn't know what to say.
The two stayed for a while and chatted with Su Ping for a bit. Then, they went their separate ways to cultivate.
Apart from their talents, the fact that they were so far ahead of their peers also had to do with their hard work. Geniuses were strange and lonely. They weren't good at making friends.
Su Ping had nothing to do. He didn't wander around. He found a place to sit down and cultivate.
As he operated the Chaos Star Chart, the surrounding astral powers were drawn over, forming a storm funnel. The crew members nearby were scared out of their wits; they thought that something serious had happened.
They were relieved when they realized that it was caused by Su Ping's cultivation. But soon, they were dumbstruck.
Back when Su Ping was still a third-rank battle pet warrior, he could use the Chaos Star Chart to absorb astral powers within a radius of hundreds of meters. At the moment, the Chaos Star Chart was even more domineering. One-half of the resting area was draining astral powers toward Su Ping, forming a huge funnel of astral powers.
Su Ping was at the center of the funnel. The astral powers were pouring into his body from the top of his head. They were refined and compressed into strands of extremely pure astral powers.
Those strands of pure astral powers were compressed again, turning into water droplets.
The water droplets were compressed again, turning into solid astral power crystal pieces.
Those crystal pieces melted into every part of his cells, making his seemingly solid cells even stronger and thicker!
It had to be noted that the astral powers of regular battle pet warriors were in the form of mist.
The purer astral powers were in the form of threads, and the further they were in the form of water droplets was already the limit.
Su Ping's astral power had been purified so many times that it was even stronger than regular Star State warriors'.
"What's going on?"
"The astral power around me seems to have been attracted by something."
Su Ping's cultivation soon alerted the people in the rest area nearby. They flew over in the direction of the astral power, only to be dumbfounded when they saw Su Ping cultivating at the center of the astral power storm.
Is this guy cultivating?
What kind of technique is that? It's so brutal and evil!
"F * ck, I thought my cultivation method was already brutal enough. Compared to this, I'm just a little lamb!"
"He could've looted half a continent's astral power if he were in the outside world!"
"This isn't cultivation; it's robbery!"
More and more people arrived and stood outside the astral power storm caused by Su Ping's cultivation, all of them in shock.
To the east of the rest area, King Auth, who had just returned from Su Ping's place, was sitting on the peak of a mountain. He was also cultivating. Suddenly, he sensed that the astral power he was cultivating was flowing away, as if it were being absorbed by someone else.
How dare someone steal my stuff?
Auth Dragon King opened his eyes slightly, and a flash of golden lightning shot out. He didn't get up, but his perception swept out like a hurricane, extending along the star power. Soon, he saw a scene like a whale sucking in water, and his expression changed slightly.
It's that guy?
He pulled a long face. He remembered his previous challenge. Was that guy trying to fight back in this way?
He closed his eyes again and activated his cultivation method with all his might. Soon, the astral power around him began to boil and violently plunge into his body.
As Auth cultivated, the astral power in the rest area was divided into two storms that surrounded Su Ping and Auth.
The people in the other areas had stopped cultivating and gathered outside the area where Su Ping and Auth were cultivating. Their senses covered the entire rest area, and they were all dumbfounded.
"The astral power here has been divided by the two of them!"
"Too overbearing! This Osron King is also a madman!"
"How can we cultivate like this? We have to go to another area. "
"I didn't know that we would have two freaks in our group."
"I've heard that Amir, the number one warrior on the Imperial Ranking List, is a guy that only appears once in a hundred years. I didn't know that this guy who can use ten moves with one punch is also a freak."
The other eight people discussed among themselves. They had no choice but to go to another area.
They could continue cultivating if they stayed there, and their skills were not weak, but they would still be affected.
After discussing for a while, the eight of them left and did not continue to watch the show.
At the same time, Su Ping and Osron were both cultivating in the resting area. Gradually, as time went by, the astral powers became more and more in Su Ping's favor, from a fifty-fifty to a forty-sixty split.
At the top of the mountain, Auth opened his eyes. His golden eyes glinted with coldness.
Once again, he unleashed his astral power. This time, he was going to use his skills to loot the astral power!
On the other hand, Su Ping was sitting in the middle of the astral power storm. His eyebrows were knitted together and relaxed at times. Once he entered the state of cultivation, he allowed his body to cultivate on its own. His mind had entered a state of ecstasy. He was comprehending the laws in a deeper level of his spirit.
It would be difficult for others to enter a state of ecstasy. However, Su Ping had been through countless battles in the cultivation sites. He could easily reach this state.
He could easily enter a state of ecstasy even when he was in an extremely dangerous area.
That was a great test of his willpower.
While Auth was busy looting, the astral power in the rest area was divided equally. The golden teacher who was in charge of leading the team on the spaceship was also surprised to see this. He had a strange look on his face when he sensed what was going on in the rest area.
"It's one thing that Greos is a monster, but where did this monster come from? It's true that monsters always stick together. I wonder if the two of them can reach the level of that little witch."
…
Time zipped by.
Two days had passed.
That day, the golden teacher sent a message to the ten people who were cultivating. All of them woke up, including Su Ping, who was in a state of ecstasy.
"S-grade secret realm, Phantom Tablet Secret Realm, we have arrived!"
The other eight people came back from other areas and gathered in the rest area. Su Ping and Auth had stopped cultivating. The astral power in the rest area had been restored, but it was much thinner than before. The astral crystal energy device under the spaceship hadn't been refilled yet.
They looked outside the spaceship. Through the external sensors, they could see that the spaceship had disappeared. They felt as if they were in the starry sky. They could see some colorful nebulae in the distance, as well as a rotating galaxy.
In the starry sky in front of them, there was an extremely huge vortex that looked like a black hole spinning silently.
That was the Illusion Tablet.
Around the Secret Realm, there were space stations and Star Lords guarding the place.
The signal from the spaceship was connected to the space station and passed the inspection.
As the spaceship flew into the Mysterious Realm, they saw colorful starlight in the dark swirl above their heads. It seemed that the starlight had crossed tens of millions of galaxies in an instant.
Then, all of the projections faded away, and the light before him abruptly brightened as he appeared in a world filled with towering monuments.
Many great monuments floated in the air, stacked on top of each other, vaguely forming the shape of a pyramid.
In the distance, there was a plaza in the void, as well as some floating islands and palaces.
"That's the residential area."
A beautiful woman who seemed gentle and quiet said in a low voice.
Her words raised some eyebrows. She didn't seem to be arrogant, but no one would look down on her because of that. She ranked second on the Imperial Ranking, second only to Auth!
Dragon King Oss turned to look at her and said, "Have you been here before?"
"Once," the woman said in a low voice.
Auth nodded and didn't say anything else. He turned around and glanced at a person in the distance. Seeing that the person didn't sense his gaze at all, Auth's eyes turned cold and he looked away.
At this moment, the spaceship flew toward the plaza in the distance.
Although it was called a square, as the spaceship approached, the square became bigger and bigger. In the end, it was a continent floating in the void!
"Look, that's the spaceship of the Hugh Mia Academy!"
"That's the Dragon Tomb Academy. They're here too. That dragon symbol seems to be the mount of their Dean, Lord Tex!"
"The Shengying Academy is here too. It seems they haven't given up yet. They used to be one of the five major academies in Sylphy, but they were left behind later. Now they want to regain the glory of the five major academies."
While they were talking, the spaceship landed in a corner of the plaza.
After flying out of the spaceship, they were led outside by the ace instructor and met with the people from the other academies.
"You guys are late."
A burly man with gray hair smiled when he saw the ace instructor. He seemed to know him.
Although the academies were in a competitive relationship, they had led many batches of students and were familiar with each other.
"It's no use coming early. We're just waiting," the ace instructor said indifferently.
The other academies also had ten slots. When the Amir Royal Academy arrived, the students from the other academies turned to look at them.
"It's him?"
Suddenly, a young girl in the Hugh Mia Academy shuddered. Her eyes widened in disbelief and astonishment.
Beside her was a girl dressed more maturely. She asked in confusion, "What? Do you know him?"
"He …"
The girl stared blankly at the young man in the distance. She didn't hear the words of the girl beside her. Her brain was in a mess. She had never thought that she would see him here.
She had thought that with her status and treatment in the Hugh Mia Academy, she would be able to leave this man behind. When she returned to the Cerulean Planet, she would be the most powerful person in the world.
By then, she would be able to wash away the shame of having her inheritance stolen and her grandpa being bullied.
But … she had never thought that she would see him here!
The girl was none other than Yuan Linglu, who had been selected from the Cerulean Planet!
