"Huh?"
At that moment, Su Ping, who had nothing better to do, suddenly sensed something. He looked in a certain direction and saw a familiar face.
His eyes lingered on the person's dark purple hair for a moment. He tried to recall, but then he was stunned.
"The guy who took away the legacy from the Longtai Mountain?" Su Ping was surprised to see someone from the Blue Planet there, not to mention that he had met him on the Blue Planet.
Yuan Linglu's heart skipped a beat when she made eye contact with Su Ping. Somehow, she was flustered.
But soon, she came back to her senses. Things were different that day. Su Ping had taken away the legacy from her, which led to her being surpassed by him in all aspects. But the tables had turned!
She had awakened a battle constitution and was valued and trained by the Hugh Mia Academy. She had also broadened her horizons in the Federation. She was much stronger than before.
Even the legacy of the Longtai Mountain that Su Ping had taken away from her was not worth mentioning at the moment.
It was just the legacy of a Star State dragon.
She would have been interested in a Star Lord.
"That guy has black hair too. Is he from the same planet as you?" asked an elegant woman next to Yuan Linglu in a gentle voice.
Yuan Linglu nodded. "He's from my hometown."
"Is that so? The mentor who went to your hometown to select the students brought all the geniuses from your hometown. I didn't expect that someone would slip through the net," said the woman gently with a smile. It was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Yuan Linglu sneered and said, "He's just a lucky guy!"
The woman looked at her. Her eyes flickered as she realized something. She smiled but didn't say anything.
Standing next to Su Ping, Claybeth, Iberta, and Luna were also sizing up the students from the other academies. Claybeth's gaze fell on a group of people. "I heard that there is a rare swordsman in the Sword Sovereign's Academy this year. He has learned an ancient skill. I wonder who it is." Claybeth raised his eyebrows.
"I've heard about it too. He's a formidable opponent!"
Another student from the Emperor Ranking said in a low voice with solemnity and vigilance.
King Oss raised his eyebrows. He looked around the students from the Sword Sovereign Academy and soon fixed his eyes on an ordinary-looking young man with a wooden sword on his back.
His eyes flashed and he frowned slightly.
"The dragon king from the dragon tomb is not to be underestimated. I heard that he opened the dragon coffin in the deepest part of the academy and received the dragon's energy. He has the dragon family's constitution of the demon family."
"The dragon family of the demon family. Another freak."
"I heard that the Hugh Mia Academy also has a pair of twin stars. We'll have a lot of opponents this time and none of them will be easy to deal with!"
"What are you afraid of? We have King Oss and Sister Tianqi. We don't know who will win if we encounter them!"
While the students from the Amir Royal Academy were discussing, three people flew close from the distance. They were all Star Lords, and their intimidating auras made all the students nearby stop talking.
The pressure of a Star Lord was quite intimidating for those who hadn't even reached the Star State.
Even some of the monstrous students had solemn expressions on their faces.
The three Star Lords didn't try to hide their auras at all. They were like three scorching suns in the sky, intimidating the students as soon as they arrived.
"Five academies, take care of your students and verify their identities. Go to the Divine Monument Platform and wait. The first round of tests will take place in ten hours. You will be divided into cultivation zones and Honor Points according to the results."
The Star Lord in the lead was wearing a gray robe and a hood that covered his face. He looked down at everyone like a gray god and spoke indifferently.
The mentors of the five academies remained calm and didn't say anything.
The Star Lord then turned around and left. The other two Star Lords led the mentors and students of the five academies to a hill next to the square.
Although it was a hill, it was actually more like a monument. It was bare, and there were arrays of light from the foot to the peak, each of which had an ancient stone seat.
"Go take a seat and rest. You can also cultivate there. Conserve your energy."
Rest well, "the best mentor said to the others.
The mentors of the other academies told their students as well. Soon, the students of the Dragon Grave Academy were the first to dash toward the arrays of light on the top of the hill.
As the Dragon Tomb Academy flew out, the ten people from the Sword Sovereign Academy followed closely behind. Suddenly, a whooshing sound could be heard as the ordinary-looking young man with the wooden sword on his back shot through the air like a sharp sword. He arrived at the peak of the small mountain, stepped into a glowing spell formation, and sat down.
There were only eight arrays on the top of the hill. Only seven remained after the young man with the wooden sword entered.
The students of the Dragon Grave Academy were the first to fly out, but someone else beat them to it. They all unleashed their strength and dashed forward.
Two of them flew out like eagles and reached the top of the hill in the blink of an eye. They chose the arrays and entered.
"Quick, get them!"
"The energy array on the top of the hill is connected to the Divine Energy of the Stele Mountain. Cultivating there is the same as cultivating in the Illusion Stele!"
Everyone from the Amir Academy moved quickly as well, charging forward at full speed. Osron snorted coldly. Golden astral power exploded from his body. The astral power was mixed with Divine Power and was extremely pure. It made his explosive power even more powerful. Like a fighter jet, he roared forward and arrived first even though he had started later.
Behind him was the second on the Imperial Ranking, the gentle-looking woman. Four elemental fluctuations appeared on her body. They were wind, fire, lightning, and rock. They were like four storms that propelled her forward at high speed.
"What's in it for me?"
Su Ping was surprised to hear the words of the girl named "Tian Qi." He didn't know that even a seat was so particular. He had to put aside his laid-back attitude. The cells in his body spun and the astral powers in his cells spun out, like a gear driving countless other gears. With a boom, a powerful astral vortex appeared in the air around Su Ping.
The next second, Su Ping dashed past the students and caught up with the Ossaurus King, as if he had been given a hyperdrive.
"Huh?"
Osron's expression changed. A glint of golden coldness rose in his eyes. Once again, his body expanded.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several people arrived at the top of the hill at the same time and flew toward the remaining formations.
Su Ping also found a formation of light. He stepped in and sat down on a stone seat.
As soon as he sat down, Su Ping felt a surge of profound astral powers gushing out from the bottom of the stone seat. The astral powers surged into his body like a fountain. He didn't have to absorb the astral powers; they were automatically transferred to him!
An elementary battle pet warrior would have been able to advance several ranks after one day on the stone seat.
Osron and Tian Qi had also taken their seats. In the blink of an eye, all the eight formations on the top of the hill were occupied. Some of the people that came later went to the seats at the top of the hill while some stayed with gloomy faces.
"I don't think we have a chance."
Kleisha looked at the top of the hill. The Amir Royal Academy had taken three seats. The other five seats were not to be messed with. After a moment of hesitation, Kleisha gave up on the idea of competing and turned to the formations on the mountainside.
"There are indeed a lot of monsters." Iberta Luna curled her lips. She had noticed that when Su Ping and the others had done their best, the students from the other academies were faster than her. They must be the top students of their respective academies. Iberta Luna didn't feel good about it.
Any one of them could be considered a genius in the outside world. But here, all of them were monsters!
"Hmph, I've taken a liking to this seat. Move aside!"
While the other students were looking for seats on the mountainside, a tall, slender, and handsome young man slowly landed next to the woman from the Heavenly Awakening Realm and spoke in a condescending tone.
Tian Qi was sitting on the stone chair. The gentleness on his face was gone. "Get lost!" he said coldly.
The handsome young man didn't change his expression. "Since you are so stubborn, come out and fight me. If you lose, you can crawl. If you win, I will give you this seat."
Words were unnecessary in the world of talents. Tian Qi didn't say anything else. He made his stance clear with his actions.
She stepped out of the light formation and stood in the air, glaring at the young man coldly.
She was surrounded by four different elements. She only had a physical body of the elemental family, but it was a rare one with multiple elements!
Usually, some geniuses with elemental bodies would have dual bodies!
And she was one of the very few … Quadruple Elemental Battle Bodies!
She was a fundamental element in the universe, but she had a quadruple elemental body. Apart from the top ones of the demon family, the other ones would have to stay away from her.
Seeing Tian Qi's quadruple elemental body, many people in the academy were shocked. They thought she was a monster.
Sure enough, no one who could come here was simple. They were all existences that surpassed common sense.
"Heh!"
The handsome young man didn't look surprised. Instead, a look of disdain appeared on his face. Then, elemental waves appeared on his body as well. Holy white light and cold darkness intertwined behind him. He also had an elemental body, and it was only a quadruple one. But the elements were … light and darkness!
"Xiu Mia, one of the Gemini Stars, the Holy King!"
"I have long heard of this Holy King. Is he going to start a war?"
"Sure enough, no one is willing to submit to a genius."
Many students who had already taken their seats at the mountainside and the foot of the mountain raised their heads to look at the situation above the mountain peak. When they saw the postures of these two people, they all became somewhat excited.
They knew that they were not as good as those freaks. Still, it was nice to be able to watch the fight. They would consider it as a free learning experience.
"Is that Tian Qi, the No.2 student on the Ranking List of the Amir Royal Academy? He wants to compete with our Holy King? She is going to die. "
On the mountainside, Yuan Linglu and the graceful girl were sitting next to each other. The latter saw what was going on and commented with a smile.
Yuan Linglu, on the other hand, seemed to be in a trance.
When she was flying toward the stele, she almost cried out in surprise when she saw Su Ping dashing out. That was too fast!
That was beyond her expectations!
Didn't he sneak in with the help of a benefactor?
How could he be so fast?
Yuan Linglu came back to her senses as she watched the fight that was about to break out. "Sister Celita, are you going to challenge that guy?" she asked the girl next to her.
"Someone from your hometown?"
"Yes."
Celita couldn't help but look at her. She was right. The two of them were from the same hometown and they used to hate each other.
"I won't be able to sit still even if I succeed. Look over there. The Dragon's Tomb and the Sword Venerable's academy are waiting for me. I've never heard of that person from the Shengying Oriole, but he doesn't seem weak." Celita shook her head.
Yuan Linglu looked over. She was relieved.
For some reason, even though they were from the same hometown, she should have felt close to someone from her hometown. However, that person had to be Su Ping. The legacy of the Longtai Mountain had been taken away right under her nose. Then, Su Ping had managed to get a seat at the top of the mountain. She didn't feel good.
There was an inexplicable sense of irritation in her heart.
While they were talking, the two Astral Lords and the teachers from the academies flew over. One of the Astral Lords said, "The Tablet of Illusion won't stop you from dueling or challenging each other. But you can't start a fight or destroy the Mysterious Realm. If you want to fight, go there."
With a wave of his hand, an island flew over from afar.
The surface of the island was bare, and there were special divine patterns circling it like a divine lock shield.
"The space inside the Mysterious Realm is special. It's hard for you to tear it open. That island is a dueling ground for you. If you want to vent, go there," the Astral Lord said.
The Astral Lord from the Hugh Mia Academy chuckled. "Holy King, don't bully the girls."
The best teacher raised his eyebrows. "That's a good name. If you get beaten up by a girl, you'll cry."
The smell of gunpowder was thick between the two instructors, and they were at loggerheads with each other.
Neither of them wanted to stop them. They had come to the Mysterious Realm to train their students, to make the final push for the universe's genius contest. How could they back down?
Also, the honor of the academy and the Ascendant State was at stake in front of so many people. They couldn't back down!
"Please."
The Holy King smiled lightly and said in a graceful manner.
Tian Qi calmly flew into the island first.
The Holy King followed him. A battle broke out as soon as they entered.
The Holy King was surrounded by black and white lights. Half of his skin was white and the other half was black, which looked quite weird. He summoned his battle pet and merged with it, which was a rare Star State dragon.
The dragon alone was enough to suppress many mid phase Star State warriors.
Tian Qi also activated her Battle Body. The quadruple Elemental Body made it easy for her to control the elements around her. Together with the laws of the four elements that she had mastered, she unleashed astonishing strength. Together with her battle pet, the two of them were soon engaged in a fierce battle. Elemental blasts swept across the island in a dazzling manner.
Both of them were at the Fate State, but their battle was even more intense than the battles between Star State warriors!
They would've fought in the deep space if they were in the outside world, but they couldn't use spatial teleportation here. They had to rely on other secret techniques to fight head-on!
"They're indeed monsters!"
"They deserve their fame. They are indeed qualified to sit at the peak of the mountain."
"I admit defeat."
On the mountainside, many people were watching the battle. Their expressions were incomparably solemn. When they compared themselves, they quickly felt the gap in strength between them.
