Half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. However, a major event had taken place in the True Martial University during this half a month. They had discovered the main culprit of the True Martial University's downfall at the foreign testing ground which was originally used to test the newcomers. It was the sealed place of the Star Colossus.
The space around this place had been completely locked since that day. Even the space transmission array couldn't be used to enter this place. This place had become the forbidden area of the True Martial University.
Many disciples of the True Martial University had been killed. This matter had thoroughly enraged the True Martial University's higher-ups. They had almost started a war with the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall out of anger. However, the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall had sent an envoy to meet the Lord of the True Martial University. It wasn't clear how much the True Martial University had to pay in order to appease the True Martial University's anger.
The strength of the True Martial University and the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall could only be regarded as equal at best. Moreover, the True Martial University was in the right in this matter. No one would stand on the side of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. After all, the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall's actions had been very improper.
Many forces had risen after the True Martial University had completely declined. These forces had divided their own sphere of influence. Basically, they couldn't interfere with each other within their sphere of influence. Not to mention, these newcomers were the core of the True Martial University. These newcomers would become the future pillars of the True Martial University.
So many of them had been killed by the disciples of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. So, how could the True Martial University not be furious?
The Xuan Yuan Palace Hall's losses were even worse. The loss of Fan Ming alone was comparable to the total loss of the True Martial University. There weren't many such disciples in every session. Most of them were in the single digits. Very few of them were in the ten digits. This had been completely ignored by the people. The Xuan Yuan Palace Hall could only swallow the consequences of their actions. They could only blame themselves for being careless.
It was also because of the discovery of the sealed land that the trial, which had lasted for more than a year, ended ahead of schedule. Everyone's performance during the trial was rewarded accordingly.
Some tyrannical disciples were promoted to core disciples, some were promoted to inner disciples, and some outstanding truth disciples were also promoted to outer disciples.
Ye Xiwen had performed outstandingly in this matter. He had almost single-handedly thwarted the conspiracy of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. So, he had been promoted to the status of a core disciple. However, only sage experts were qualified to become a core disciple under normal circumstances.
In fact, there were even voices among the higher-ups. They wanted to make an exception and promote Ye Xiwen to a true disciple. This was because Ye Xiwen's contribution was enough. It could be said that he had single-handedly thwarted the conspiracy of the entire Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. He had made a great contribution. So, it was enough to make an exception and promote him to a true disciple.
However, he had met with collective resistance from some of the higher-ups. After all, meritorious service was one thing. However, his strength was far from enough. His promotion to become a core disciple was already considered as an exception. However, only the experts of great sage realm could enjoy the treatment of becoming a true disciple. Ye Xiwen's strength was far from enough.
Of course, the most important thing was that Ye Xiwen hadn't shown enough potential. This was the Achilles' heel. Half-step legendary realm was a fundamental indicator to test how far a genius could go in the future. Generally speaking, the more tyrannical a genius was, the more he could go in the future. Ye Xiwen had only reached half-step legendary seventh stage. The True Martial University's standard was to train him as an elite.
Those who could cultivate to half-step legendary ninth stage would be regarded as geniuses and would be given more resources. Only those who could break through to half-step legendary's great complete realm would be worthy of being nurtured by the True Martial University. They would become the pillars of the university in the future.
The fact that Ye Xiwen could fight against those who were stronger than him had attracted the attention of some of the higher-ups. However, they didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, which genius didn't have the ability to fight against those who were stronger than him? Many people had even counter-attacked and fought their way into the True Martial University. It was just that Ye Xiwen had fought against those who were stronger than him. However, it wasn't impossible. Some people had relied on sage tools or other unorthodox methods to achieve the same level as Ye Xiwen. In the eyes of many higher-ups, relying on external forces wasn't the right way. Moreover, it didn't represent Ye Xiwen's potential. His future achievements would be limited if he could only stop at half-step legendary seventh stage.
Great sage realm might be the peak of his potential. Only by breaking through to half-step legendary ninth stage would he have the hope of breaking through to the great sage realm in the future. A person's future potential could be seen at half-step legendary realm. It wasn't certain that it would be like this in the future. After all, everyone had their own fortuitous encounters, and so on. However, most of the information was still accurate.
Ye Xiwen had made great contributions at present. However, many higher-ups believed that he hadn't shown enough potential. So, it wasn't appropriate to promote him to become a true disciple.
Especially the higher-ups of the Law Enforcement Hall. They tried their best to stop this. Therefore, the matter of promoting Ye Xiwen to become a true disciple was left unsettled.
Of course, these were only legends. There were many different opinions. Nobody had truly confirmed the thoughts of the higher-ups. However, Ye Xiwen's reputation had become famous after this incident.
His name had spread throughout the True Martial University. He was now comparable to those genuine heaven's pride experts.
"Ha ha … I'm very happy this time. That Ye Xiwen wasn't very famous. However, he killed a heaven's pride expert of the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. The Xuan Yuan Palace Hall tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice used to lure it. They have to suffer in silence.
"That's right. The Xuan Yuan Palace Hall had been scheming for a long time. I'm afraid that these people would've been killed if it weren't for Ye Xiwen!"
"Fan Ming has become a stepping stone this time. This has allowed our True Martial University to have two more heaven's pride experts. That Sword Sage had established the Sword Tomb in an extremely powerful manner. Now, he has even broken through to the half-step legendry's great complete realm. He has entered the ranks of the heaven's pride experts. He's really extraordinary."
"That Ye Xiwen is even more devilish. That Fan Ming was also an illustrious heaven's pride expert in the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall. However, he was killed by Ye Xiwen. His future prospects are limitless!"
"There's also Titan Body, Heavenly Phoenix Body, Han Bing Wang, Great Radiance Venerable, Qin Wang, Golden Lion King, Sword Sage, and Ye Xiwen. Altogether, we have eight heaven's pride experts who have stepped into the half-step legendry's great complete realm. This is considered a lot in the past!"
"It's still too early to say. Ye Xiwen's fighting strength is only comparable to the half-step legendry's great complete realm. It's amazing. However, it's not certain whether he can break through to the half-step legendry's great complete realm in the future. What's the use of being comparable to a heaven's pride expert now? The gap will only get bigger and bigger if he can't break through this boundary.
Some people were also dissatisfied with Ye Xiwen's sudden fame. So, they started to ridicule and ridicule him.
Ye Xiwen didn't care about the ups and downs in the outside world. After all, he couldn't do anything about it. He had become famous for only a few days. But, countless people had already come to challenge him. The other top experts among these eight heaven's pride experts had confirmed that they had already reached the half-step legendry's great complete realm. Moreover, they often challenged people of a higher realm than them. So, they couldn't find a match for them in the same realm unless they dispatched a semi-sage expert.
Therefore, many people knew that they couldn't bring trouble upon themselves. However, Ye Xiwen was different. He had been listed as a heaven's pride expert this time. However, he was merely at the half-step legendry's seventh stage. There were many disciples with such strength among this batch of new disciples. Therefore, many people didn't like Ye Xiwen who had suddenly become famous. However, many people also felt that Ye Xiwen's reputation was undeserved.
After all, these people were geniuses from all over the world. They couldn't compare with those heaven's pride experts who had already stepped into the half-step legendry's great complete realm. However, what was Ye Xiwen? He had never been famous before. So, how could he suddenly become famous?
Moreover, Ye Xiwen had become famous in the battle where he had beheaded the Xuan Yuan Palace Hall's heaven's pride expert — Fan Ming. However, everyone felt that Fan Ming's vitality had been greatly damaged after he had fought with the Sword Sage. Therefore, Ye Xiwen had taken advantage of him.
In fact, Ye Xiwen wasn't that great.
This made it extremely difficult for them to accept. Many people wanted to use Ye Xiwen as a stepping stone to climb up the ranks. However, Ye Xiwen wasn't a soft persimmon. He had directly tidied up more than a dozen famous elites. And, this had scared them. Ye Xiwen had tidied them up in a neat and tidy manner.
Those self-proclaimed geniuses couldn't even withstand one move of Ye Xiwen's.
More than a dozen people could withstand one move of Ye Xiwen's. There was no lack of famous experts of half-step legendary ninth stage among them. They weren't inferior to Luo Yi Hang and the Sword Sage. However, they couldn't even withstand one move of Ye Xiwen's. This had thoroughly scared them.
This allowed Ye Xiwen to have a few days of peace and tranquility.
Ye Xiwen wasn't interested in those rumors and slanders. In fact, he wouldn't have had the desire to fight if he hadn't wanted to deter everyone.
Ye Xiwen wanted to fight all the experts in the world. However, he wasn't interested in fighting an average person if the opponent was a top-level powerhouse.
However, Ye Xiwen wasn't disturbed again after that. Everyone understood that Ye Xiwen might not have the fighting strength of those heaven's pride experts. However, it would still be very easy for him to tidy them up.
Ye Xiwen didn't pay attention to what the people outside were saying. Instead, he continued to refine that star colossus into a blood slave.
Refining a star colossus of sage peak level had already far exceeded Ye Xiwen's ability. Ye Xiwen's comprehensive strength had reached half-step legendary's great complete realm. However, his true realm was merely half-step legendary seventh stage. Refining this star colossus of sage peak level had already exceeded his current ability.
