"Wow, so this is Julingsheng Planet? It's truly breathtaking."
In the simulated exterior view of the spaceship, a massive, head-shaped planet loomed ahead, presenting a stunning sight.
"The data says Julingsheng Planet was carved out of the skull of some colossal creature and repurposed by the Giant Axe Arena. The entire planet has a maximum diameter of 100,000 kilometers—it's much larger than Jupiter," Sett remarked as he gazed at the giant skull before him.
"Please dock in the G2 zone." After arriving in the orbit of Julingsheng Planet, a notification sounded.
Zhenlian King had already granted Sett authorization for this ship, so he could control it naturally.
It was incredibly convenient; he only needed to issue voice commands, and the ship's control system handled the rest. As long as one could speak the Universal Language, it was a breeze.
Sett followed the prompts to the G2 zone to dock the ship. This area was reserved for small vessels like his.
Of course, some people preferred piloting massive ships, but those could only be parked in space, with shuttles ferrying passengers to the planet's surface.
Zhenlian King's ship wasn't large, measuring only a few dozen meters in diameter, so the docking fees were quite cheap. Paying for a year's worth of parking didn't cost much at all.
"The King said she'd have someone pick me up, but she didn't leave any contact info. I'm a stranger in a strange land here; where am I supposed to wait?" Sett muttered as he stepped out of the docking bay.
"Hey, you must be Sett, right?" Just then, a bald man walked toward him.
Sett looked the man over.
The bald man was about the same height as Sett, with two swords strapped to his back, and he approached with a smile.
"I am Sett. Hello, may I ask who you are?" Sett asked, seeing the man was addressing him.
"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Qingyu. Zhenlian King sent me to pick you up. You haven't been waiting long, have you?" Qingyu said.
"Not long at all, I just arrived. Haha, sorry for the trouble," Sett said with a smile.
"Not at all, not at all. Let's go then." Qingyu led Sett to a flying car.
The car skimmed low over the ground, moving at high speed. Sett looked around, curious about this unfamiliar planet.
There was no shortage of people carrying weapons on Julingsheng Planet. As a planet under the influence of the Giant Axe Arena, a large portion of the population naturally revered martial strength.
Moreover, the planet housed the Giant Axe Arena's dueling grounds, which included everything from Planetary Level to Universe Level arenas.
Whether they were there to sign up for the Giant Axe Arena or to watch the blood-pumping life-and-death duels, the visitors made the entire planet feel incredibly bustling.
"I heard you're here to earn the title of Giant Axe Warrior?" Qingyu asked from the car.
The vehicle was on autopilot, and the two of them sitting in silence felt a bit awkward, so Qingyu took the initiative to start a conversation.
"Yeah, honestly, I didn't really want to come, but Zhenlian King said if I earn the title of Giant Axe Warrior, she'll take me on as a personal disciple. I couldn't let the King down, heh heh," Sett replied.
"Oh? You become a personal disciple of Zhenlian King just by earning the Giant Axe Warrior title? That's pretty good."
"Let me tell you, this Zhenlian King is extremely formidable. You know that anyone with the title 'King' after their name is a King Level Immortal."
"There are gaps in strength even among King Level Immortals, and Zhenlian King is considered very powerful even among them."
"You really need to seize this opportunity. Although the Giant Axe Warrior title sounds terrifying—you have to win one thousand times to earn it—"
"Since you're someone the King has her eye on, I imagine it won't be much of a problem." Qingyu was quite talkative and rattled off a long string of words in one breath.
Qingyu had been given pointers by Zhenlian King twice a long time ago. To a King Level powerhouse, it was just a casual bit of guidance given on a whim.
But for Qingyu, who had been stuck at the Domain Lord level at the time, it was like charcoal in the snow; it helped him cross that barrier and break through to the World Lord level.
Naturally, he had kept that debt of gratitude in his heart, so as soon as he heard he could do a favor for Zhenlian King, he had come over early to wait.
Even though he was only picking up a little guy at the Planetary Level, if he had caught the eye of Zhenlian King, he must have some ability.
And since it looked like there was a high probability he would become a personal disciple, he naturally had to treat him well.
Besides, the life of a World Lord was very long; he didn't mind the time.
"I definitely have to seize it. I'm only at the Planetary Level, and I have a chance to become a disciple of a King Level Immortal. I have to work hard," Sett said with a laugh.
"Hmm, actually, I am a Giant Axe Warrior at both the Universe Level and the Domain Lord level," Qingyu said. "Back when I was stuck at the ninth rank of the Universe Level, I couldn't break through for the longest time."
"To temper myself, I went to participate in the life-and-death duels at the Giant Axe Arena. After arduously winning one thousand matches, I successfully crossed that node and upgraded to the Domain Lord level."
"When I was at the ninth rank of the Domain Lord level, I participated in the Giant Axe Arena's life-and-death duels again, hoping to once again reach the World Lord level through life-and-death combat."
"In the end, although I became a Domain Lord level Giant Axe Warrior, I still had no clue how to break through to the World Lord level. Every breakthrough is extremely difficult."
"Just when I felt that breaking through was hopeless, I met Zhenlian King. She gave me a few pointers, and I actually managed to break through to the World Lord level smoothly. Although she didn't take me as a disciple, I already consider her my master in my heart," Qingyu sighed with emotion.
A World Lord powerhouse is here to pick me up; I really have a lot of face, Sett thought, secretly shocked by Qingyu's story. Zhenlian King had casually dispatched a World Lord level powerhouse just to pick him up.
"Then, Senior, could you give me some advice? Is there anything I should watch out for at the Giant Axe Arena?" Sett asked, hoping to learn from the experience of a Universe and Domain Lord level Giant Axe Warrior.
Qingyu stroked his chin and said, "Actually, there's nothing special to watch out for. It mainly comes down to having enough strength. As long as you can kill your opponent first and win the match, you just keep going until you reach one thousand wins and regain your freedom. That's when it ends."
The two chatted for a while. Sett was very interested in the stories of the strong, and since Qingyu was talkative, he shared quite a bit along the way.
"Rest here for two days first. Two days from now, the Giant Axe Arena here will start the new season of duels, and I'll take you to sign up then." As the car pulled up to a manor, Qingyu led Sett inside.
"Heh heh, this was a gift from the Giant Axe Arena. Since I'm a Domain Lord level Giant Axe Warrior and have brought them quite a bit of profit, they gifted me this manor," Qingyu said, gesturing to the estate.
The manor was huge, ten kilometers in length and width, covering an area of one hundred square kilometers. Having such a manor on Julingsheng Planet showed just how formidable Qingyu was.
"It's beautiful," Sett nodded in praise.
It didn't cost him anything to say a few nice words, and the manor was indeed beautiful.
"That's right, I paid a small fortune to hire a designer for this. I spend most of my time living here, so naturally, I wanted to make it look nice," Qingyu said with a smile.
The two of them walked quickly through the manor; fortunately, Sett was at the Planetary Level nine, as an ordinary person living here would be exhausted just from walking around.
"You can stay in this building for now. I'll take you to register at the Giant Axe Arena in a couple of days," Qingyu said, pointing to a building.
"Mm, thank you," Sett replied.
This is truly extravagant, giving me an entire building just to stay in. It makes me feel a bit embarrassed, Sett thought as he sprawled out on the massive sofa.
After a long while, he finally stood back up.
Lying down is still the best. This period of time really wore me out; I don't even know how I managed to keep going, Sett thought, feeling surprised as he recalled the hellish training of the past two years, finding it hard to believe.
After all, he had only been an ordinary person before. Having persisted through two years of such hellish training, even he found it astonishing when he looked back on it.
But the feeling of power increasing is truly wonderful; all that hard work usually feels like nothing in the end, Sett thought.
"Connect to the Virtual Universe."
Then, Sett's vision went black, and he entered the Virtual Universe.
"Why haven't you been online these past two days?" At the Ba Jiu Yan Huan bar, Sanying and Sett sat together, both drinking Xinyan Wine, when Sanying took a sip and asked.
"I've had enough training for this period; I've already reached a nine-star rating, which is enough."
"Besides, I've already arrived at Julingsheng Planet and will soon participate in the life-and-death duels at the Giant Axe Arena, preparing to become a Planetary Level Giant Axe Warrior," Sett replied, taking a sip of his wine.
"A Giant Axe Warrior..." Sanying murmured. "It's a pity I don't have the confidence, otherwise I would go participate in the life-and-death duels and become a Giant Axe Warrior too."
"But with my current strength, I'd probably just be serving myself up on a platter. You, on the other hand, I think you'll have absolutely no problem."
The two communicated often, and Sett had even told Sanying about his dual domains. Sanying believed that Sett becoming a Giant Axe Warrior would be completely effortless.
