"It's Senior Student Qing Luo!"

"With Senior Student Qing Luo here, the West Courtyard people won't be able to act so arrogantly!"

When Qing Luo appeared,

the East Courtyard students' faces filled with excitement and admiration.

Qing Luo!

The Young Master of Azure Domain,

he was born with Innate Dual Pupils and possessed keen insight. His cultivation talent was no less than that of Liu Mubai, the West Courtyard Heaven Tier First Person.

At Northern Spirit Academy,

Qing Luo and Liu Mubai were known as the Northern Spirit Academy Twin Stars. The Dean had even judged that they had the honor of being able to enter the Five Great Academies for cultivation.

"Qing Luo..."

At the same time,

when the Heaven Tier Students of the West Courtyard saw Qing Luo approaching,

their expressions became somewhat unnatural.

"Qing Luo, you've misunderstood. We didn't come here to cause trouble."

Hong Ling said,

"Oh, you came for a walk?"

Qing Luo swept his disdainful gaze across the West Courtyard crowd.

At his words,

the West Courtyard people's expressions turned ugly. Liu Che respectfully said,

"Senior Student Qing Luo, I came to pass a message to Mu Chen."

As he spoke, Liu Che looked at Mu Chen. "Mu Chen, Brother Liu Yang said that in the Two Academies Competition ten days from now, he will choose you as his opponent."

"Oh, and I forgot to tell you. Not long ago, Brother Liu Yang discovered that he has a Human-grade Spiritual Meridian!"

At the mention of the Spiritual Meridian, smug delight appeared on Liu Che's face as he looked at Mu Chen with schadenfreude.

Liu Yang...

The West Courtyard Earth Tier First Person.

He had only just been driven out of the Spirit Road, yet that Liu Yang was already eager to use him as a stepping stone.

A Human-grade Spiritual Meridian...

"Tell Liu Yang that I'll be waiting for him."

Mu Chen's tone was firm.

"Now that takes guts!"

Liu Che gave Mu Chen a thumbs-up.

Then, the West Courtyard people left the East Courtyard together.

"You're Mu Chen, the one who came out of the Spirit Road, right? I'm Qing Luo of Azure Domain."

Qing Luo smiled at Mu Chen.

"Mu Chen... Thank you for helping just now, Senior Student Qing Luo!"

Mu Chen said with a smile.

He believed he could have handled that situation himself, but Qing Luo had stepped forward for him nonetheless. Mu Chen was still deeply grateful.

[ Ding—Congratulations, Host, on checking in with Mu Chen! ]

[ Reward obtained: Complete Dual Pupil Inheritance, Kirin Treasure Technique, Azure Sky Glazed Art, Spirit Martial Art Great Desolation Prison Heaven Finger! ]

Qing Luo: ???

As expected of the Protagonist of the Great Thousand World.

One check-in had earned him so many rewards?!

Seeing the system notification, even Qing Luo could not help but curl his lips into a smile.

The most important among them was the Dual Pupil Inheritance.

With the Dual Pupil Inheritance, he could master the proper cultivation methods and bring out the full power of his Innate Twin Pupils.

Otherwise,

his Double Pupils would keep being called Innate Dual Pupils.

That was what everyone at Northern Spirit Academy called them...

"It was nothing. That Liu Yang is fairly strong. If you find it troublesome, I can help you deal with this problem."

Having gained so many benefits from Mu Chen, Qing Luo did not mind helping him resolve his immediate trouble.

"Uh... Thank you for the kind offer, Senior Student.

In the Spirit Road, I've stepped on guys with Heaven-grade Spiritual Meridians. Liu Yang may be the West Courtyard Earth Tier First Person, but I don't even regard a mere Human-grade Spiritual Meridian as a threat."

Mu Chen said.

Tsk, tsk...

Hearing Mu Chen's words, Qing Luo could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

What a guy.

Every other word out of his mouth was about the Spirit Road.

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was still making his way through the Spirit Road.

Now that he was out, couldn't he keep a lower profile?!

Forget it...

He had no real friendship with Mu Chen.

The only reason he had come to find Mu Chen was for the system check-in.

He wasn't Mu Dad. Why should he trouble himself over Mu Chen?!

"Then I wish you luck!"

Qing Luo casually brushed him off, then looked at Tang Qian'er beside him. "Qian'er, aren't you going back to cultivate?"

"I... still have something to say to Mu Chen."

Tang Qian'er's pretty face reddened as she spoke hesitantly.

"Alright, I'll head back first."

"Mm."

Tang Qian'er nodded and watched Qing Luo walk toward the Heaven Tier Students' area.

"Qing Luo meant well just now..."

After Qing Luo left, Tang Qian'er looked at Mu Chen hesitantly.

"Sister Qian'er, you seem pretty close with Qing Luo. Don't tell me you two are..."

"Are you teasing me?"

Tang Qian'er glared at him with faint anger and explained, "It's nothing like that. The other students were just joking around."

"Really not?"

"Really not!"

Tang Qian'er said firmly.

"If there's nothing between you two, then there's nothing. Why are you getting angry?"

Only after hearing Tang Qian'er's firm answer did Mu Chen grin.

When he had first returned to Northern Spirit Academy and heard the other students spreading rumors about Tang Qian'er and Qing Luo, Mu Chen had felt rather uncomfortable.

Mu Chen could not explain that feeling. He liked Luo Li, yet his heart still felt stifled.

Mu Chen looked at Tang Qian'er curiously.

"Qing Luo is strong and handsome, yet you don't like him? Be careful, or you won't be able to get married later!"

"It's not that..."

Tang Qian'er blushed at Mu Chen's words. "It's just that he's kind of strange..."

"Kind of strange? How is he strange?!"

"I can't explain it. You'll find out eventually..."

Tang Qian'er recalled.

Elsewhere,

Qing Luo did not head to the Heaven Tier Students' cultivation area. Instead, he returned directly to his dormitory.

His strength had already reached the Peak Spirit Movement Stage.

He was only one step away from a breakthrough. Cultivating now would not mean much; he needed an opportunity if he wanted to break through.

At Northern Spirit Academy,

Qing Luo and Liu Mubai were known as the Northern Spirit Academy Twin Stars, equal in strength and talent.

In truth,

only Qing Luo knew that with his Innate Twin Pupils, he crushed the latter in both strength and talent.

Because of the Liu Region's formidable power, as well as Liu Mubai's poor character,

he simply did not want to shine too brightly and invite unnecessary trouble.

After returning to his dormitory,

Qing Luo eagerly examined his rewards this time.

Back at the square, he had only given them a cursory glance and had not had time to inspect them carefully.

Qing Luo first looked at his Dual Pupil Inheritance.

After carefully reading the reward description,

he gained a clear understanding of the Dual Pupil Inheritance and became more confident in cultivating his Twin Pupils.

Though it was called an inheritance,

it actually divided the cultivation methods of the Twin Pupils into several stages.

As Qing Luo's strength gradually increased,

he could cultivate the corresponding methods and unlock some of the Twin Pupils' abilities.

According to the inheritance's description,

the Twin Pupils' cultivation method consisted of six stages.

The first stage required him to reach the Spirit Wheel Realm before he could cultivate it.

The abilities gained were: Decompose Origin and See Through Illusion.

These could also be considered the Twin Pupils' innate divine abilities. They could break down every movement; even lightning-fast speed would appear as slow as a snail in his eyes.

As his strength increased,

he would gain the ability to See Through Illusion and reach the essence of all things.

Whether using the Twin Pupils to reflect all directions or dispel confusion, the Twin Pupils could perceive nearby things and even see through things that ordinary eyes could not.

In other words,

the current Qing Luo was not even qualified to cultivate the first stage of the Dual Pupil Inheritance.

Next, Qing Luo turned his gaze to the Kirin Treasure Technique!

There was no need to say much about this treasure technique.

Walk only with Kirin Steps, look at people only with the Dual Pupil Technique.

That was standard equipment for those with Twin Pupils!

Besides the Kirin Step, the Kirin Treasure Technique also contained many individual techniques, such as the Kirin Fist, Kirin Foot, and Kirin Pattern.

These methods were no weaker than the Thirty-Six Great Peerless Divine Abilities.

Qing Luo had originally wanted to cultivate Northern Spirit Academy's Netherworld Death Seal, but now there was no need at all.
