Chapter 25: Spirit Array Master (Seeking Recommendations and Collections)
On a gravel path leading to the Heaven Tier within the Northern Spiritual Academy, three youths walked, each with different feelings. Today was their first time cultivating in the Heaven Tier.
"Brother Yuan, do you know about the Heaven Tier?"
Tan Qingshan was filled with curiosity about the Heaven Tier.
The Earth Tier students of the Northern Spiritual Academy all viewed the Heaven Tier as a goal to strive for. It had always been a mystery to Earth Tier students, and even Heaven Tier students rarely revealed anything about it.
"I don't, but someone who knows about the Heaven Tier is here."
Mu Yuan's tone was calm, his eyes flashing.
At the end of the road stood a girl with a graceful and slender figure.
"Sister Qian'er!"
Tan Qingshan's face flushed slightly.
Seeing Mu Yuan and the others walking slowly, Tang Qian'er stepped forward impatiently and chided them in annoyance:
"You three boys are so slow! If you dawdle like this, all the good spots in the training grounds will be taken by the time we get there."
"Girls should be more composed. Otherwise, whoever marries you in the future won't dare to bring such an ugly daughter-in-law to meet their parents."
Mu Yuan shook his head helplessly.
Ugly daughter-in-law?
Tang Qian'er blinked, then walked forward with a smile, extending her slender, jade-like hand.
"A gentleman uses his words, not his fists."
Mu Yuan felt a chill around his waist and quickly slipped away.
"Who are you calling ugly…"
Tang Qian'er followed with a smile.
"Alright, how about 'beautiful wife'?"
Mu Yuan said with a laugh.
"…"
Their voices gradually faded, leaving Mu Chen and Tan Qingshan looking at each other in bewilderment.
Afterward, Tan Qingshan said with admiration:
"Brother Yuan is amazing!"
Mu Chen was stunned for a long time before snapping back to reality and muttering:
"That was too fast?"
The Great Thousand World's greatest imagination enthusiast was back online.
Mu Chen couldn't understand. Looking at the backs of Mu Yuan and Tang Qian'er, he was extremely conflicted:
"Should I tell Dad that Brother Yuan is going to marry Sister Qian'er as his wife?"
About ten minutes later, the four of them arrived at the eastern side of the Northern Spiritual Academy.
A massive palace stood there, with many students entering and exiting.
"This training hall is a vital area of the Northern Spiritual Academy. Only Heaven Tier students are qualified to enter,"
Tang Qian'er stopped, pointing at the palace.
After a brief pause, Tang Qian'er instructed:
"This is your first time cultivating in the Heaven Tier, and it's not as great as you might imagine. It's quite troublesome. Before entering this training hall, there are two points I need to tell you."
"Especially Mu Yuan and Mu Chen, you two need to pay attention."
"Don't flaunt your fathers' identities. Many of the arrogant old-timers in the Heaven Tier won't be impressed."
Tang Qian'er walked ahead again.
"Qian'er, since we met, when have you ever seen us bully others with our status?"
Mu Yuan was somewhat speechless.
What's our relationship? Don't you have any trust in me?
Tang Qian'er thought about it and realized he was right.
Setting Mu Chen aside, Mu Yuan himself had gained all his reputation through his own efforts during the three years he couldn't sense Spiritual Energy in the Northern Spiritual Academy.
"The most troublesome are those old foxes. They know they're no longer qualified to enter the Five Great Academies, so they like to vent their resentment on new students."
This was what Tang Qian'er was most worried about.
Old foxes referred to the senior students who were over eighteen but hadn't yet reached the Spirit Wheel Realm, yet hadn't left the Northern Spiritual Academy.
They no longer paid much attention to the rules of the Northern Spiritual Academy.
Because they couldn't participate in the assessments for the Five Great Academies, their hearts had gradually grown darker, and they couldn't stand to see others succeed.
He most enjoyed bullying new students of the Heaven Tier.
"I don't like to provoke people, but if anyone dares to provoke me..."
Mu Yuan's usually calm voice suddenly turned cold.
Although he didn't say anything further, everyone understood his meaning. If some fool dared to provoke him, the consequences would be unbearable for that person.
"Is that a Spirit Gathering Array?"
Suddenly, Mu Chen, who had been silent until now, spoke in surprise. He could feel the Spiritual Energy of this place being drawn towards the grand hall as if by an invisible force. The Spiritual Energy within must be far denser than outside.
"You have good taste," Tang Qian'er said, nodding her head with a hint of pride. "That's a Level 3 Spirit Gathering Array, and it's the only one in the entire Northern Spiritual Territory."
"A Level 3 Spirit Gathering Array! The Northern Spiritual Academy is truly generous!" Mu Chen clicked his tongue. Spirit Gathering Arrays were a type of Spirit Array that greatly benefited cultivation. Even their Mu Region couldn't afford to set up a Level 3 Spirit Gathering Array.
"There aren't any Spirit Array Masters in the Northern Spiritual Territory capable of setting up a Level 3 Spirit Array. This Level 3 Spirit Gathering Array must be the work of the Five Great Academies," Mu Yuan stated, cutting to the chase.
Spirit Array Masters were a very special profession in the Great Thousand World. The Great Thousand World was a place where countless planes converged, so vast that even supreme powerhouses could only sigh at their own insignificance. Thus, this great world was dazzling and filled with myriad paths to power. Besides the orthodox cultivation of Spiritual Energy, peculiar professions like Spirit Array Masters and Spirit Artifact Masters were also quite prominent. These professions required extremely stringent talent. Even many individuals with exceptional talent in cultivation might not necessarily find smooth sailing on these paths. Conversely, some people considered mediocre in cultivation possessed astonishing talent in these other fields. The saying that if heaven closes one window, it will surely open another was indeed very applicable in the Great Thousand World.
Spirit Array Masters could not only construct arrays beneficial for cultivation, such as Spirit Gathering Arrays, but also defensive and offensive arrays. It was said that some Spirit Array Masters, who had reached a certain level of attainment in array formations, could construct arrays with mere gestures, shaking heaven and earth with their power. Therefore, Spirit Array Masters were a profession with considerable status. A high-level Spirit Array Master was highly sought after, even in the Great Thousand World.
Spirit Array Masters were divided into five levels, from one to five. To set up a Level 3 Spirit Gathering Array, one must at least be a Level 3 Spirit Array Master. A Level 3 Spirit Array Master was already comparable to a powerhouse in the Three Heavens Realm. How many years had it been since the Northern Spiritual Territory had seen a powerhouse in the Three Heavens Realm? Setting aside the vast amount of rare materials required, even a Level 3 Spirit Array Master, comparable to a Three Heavens Realm expert, was likely beyond the means of most forces in the Northern Spiritual Territory. The Five Great Academies, however, had true supreme powerhouses presiding over them, were brimming with talent, and fostered fierce competition, so they naturally wouldn't lack Level 3 Spirit Array Masters. Given the Northern Spiritual Academy's relationship with the Five Great Academies, it was feasible to achieve this by paying a certain price and leveraging personal connections.
"I heard that among the Five Great Academies, there are Spirit Gathering Arrays of Level 6 or even higher. Cultivating there would be incomparably faster than cultivating outside," Tang Qian'er said with longing. Even a Level 3 Spirit Gathering Array was already so impressive. The legendary Level 6 Spirit Gathering Array was truly unimaginable.
