Just a few days after Gu Ding and the others received news of the Auction House, Gu Ding's communicator suddenly rang again. Seeing who was calling, he grinned.
After he accepted the call, Angelina's projection appeared.
"You guys are seriously disloyal. You actually left me behind!" Angelina complained the moment she opened her mouth.
"You were in seclusion making a breakthrough. We weren't sure how long it would take, so we could only leave early," Gu Ding explained with a smile. He was quite happy to receive Angelina's call.
"You broke through to the True King Realm?!" Only then did Angelina notice that Gu Ding's aura had changed. Although he had suppressed it, he could not hide it from Angelina, whose cultivation was higher.
"Mm, I broke through, but I'm still far behind you, Mentor. Your breakthrough this time seems rather unusual too." Gu Ding could also sense the Dao within Angelina.
"You can sense it?!" Angelina was somewhat surprised. "This time, I directly condensed two Dao Paths. I'm still in the Spirit Emperor Realm, but there are now four Dao Paths condensed within me."
"That's incredible, condensing two Dao Paths at once!" Gu Ding greatly admired Angelina's boldness.
"Enough about me. You're the truly incredible one. I never imagined that one day, a student of mine would defeat the gatekeeper of the twelfth level of the Void Realm while still in the Lord Realm. I never expected you to kill a True King Realm powerhouse with Lord Realm cultivation either. What you've done lately is genuinely shocking. If I didn't know you, I'd doubt whether those reports were even real." Though Angelina said that aloud, she felt proud of Gu Ding. After all, her student's achievements reflected well on her as his mentor.
The two chatted for a while
