Chapter Summaries

Huang Ji taught the Ling Zhou Governor and A Xu Void Medical Skill, though the lessons proved too advanced for most listeners. After weeks of study, Spirit Boat used Huang Ji’s dynamic models to awaken divine sense perception, which Huang Ji identified as the Eighth Sense and a gateway toward higher-dimensional perception.

• The Ling Zhou Governor and A Xu began studying under Huang Ji, but most of the audience gave up because they could not follow the advanced material.
• After struggling through the lessons, the Ling Zhou Governor brought his enormous main body to Lin Li’s Floating City, allowing him to learn faster with his five specialized brains.

• On the twenty-fourth day, Spirit Boat sensed his divine sense power for the first time and excitedly called it the Eighth Sense.
• Huang Ji explained that divine sense perception could be awakened through consciousness and might lead to the Ninth Sense, higher-dimensional perception.

After a month of study, Spirit Boat learned the foundations of Huang Ji’s Void Medical Skill and marveled at his ability to simplify its vast complexity. Meanwhile, Lin Li rose to Duke rank, and Spirit Boat arranged a match to help him reach King as Huang Ji aimed to bring the entire Ziwei Crowd to King rank.

Lin Li and the Ziwei Troupe faced an unwelcome challenge from Cang Tu, an Ancient Race fighter who threatened to stop Lin Li from becoming a king. With Huang Ji and Spirit Boat arranging fair matches and coaching the group, nine members of the Ziwei Troupe became kings in one day.

• Cang Tu confronted Lin Li at his fan gathering, declared her desire to love him through profanation, and attacked Alan when he tried to free Lin Li.
