Teacher

Virtual Universe, Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, villa, third floor.

"A month from now, Ziyu King will be holding a lecture in Chaos City..." Ye Muxuan looked at the information projected before him, pondering slightly.

After entering the core echelon of the Virtual Universe Company, the company promised to assign him a teacher at the Peak King Level. However, over the past year or so, he had first spent more than five months immersed in the Shadow Sweep secret technique. After fully mastering it, he spent another six months hunting Chaos Beasts to obtain Chaos True Spirits to mend his soul deficiency, so he hadn't sent an email to the company to make his request, and the higher-ups hadn't sent anyone over.

After all, every King Level powerhouse is a pillar of the human race's middle echelon, especially those who reach the Peak King Level; each one is a seed for breaking through to become an Immortal and achieving the status of a Venerable. In most cases, such powerhouses are either focused on cultivation to break through their final bottlenecks, or they are braving the Outer Battlefield or exploring cosmic secret realms to hone themselves. There are actually very few Peak King Level or even Limit King Level powerhouses who still have the heart to earnestly teach disciples.

Even for lectures in Chaos City, the five major powers cannot force them to hold sessions on a specific schedule; it is entirely up to these masters to arrange them themselves. Some King Level powerhouses might lecture several times a year, while others might only do so once every few years.

The company not only requires Ye Muxuan to make the request himself, but it also needs to consult the opinions of those King Level powerhouses.

As for Ziyu King and Shaoling King, they are Peak King Level powerhouses who achieved immortality by following the Origin Law of Wind from the Jinghong Chaos Stele lineage; their paths are relatively more suitable for Ye Muxuan's current state.

"...And the next person to lecture is Shaoling King, which won't be for at least another year."

Withdrawing his gaze, Ye Muxuan fell into deep thought. It seemed that in the short term, he only had time to attend Ziyu King's lecture, but...

Looking at the Floating Light on the table again, should he study Floating Light first?

After some thought, Ye Muxuan finally decided to apply for a King Level teacher and attend the lecture in a month.

Compared to others, he was significantly more reclusive. Even with Kong Yan and Zhendan, with whom he had a decent relationship, as well as Qing Lun and Bone Hand, who were also of the Jinghong lineage, he rarely met them.

However, since they had all spent a massive price to enter the Initial Universe, everyone cherished their time here, and it was normal to be unable to spare any attention for now. Once they left the Initial Universe, they should gather more often.

Virtual Universe, an independent spatial plane. In a massive palace hall, a towering man on a throne scrutinized a large pile of intelligence reports.

These were matters that the staff below could not decide on their own and were sent to him. Although he had already processed the vast majority, there were still many that required his attention!

As the information and proposals were processed one by one, the towering man's eyes suddenly narrowed.

This was an application from a World Lord General in the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm for a mentor. Because of a prior agreement, they were required to dispatch an Immortal of at least Peak King Level as a mentor. The staff below naturally did not have the authority to do so, so it was ultimately sent to him.

He pulled up the applicant's file based on the request: Ye Muxuan.

Born in a cosmic secret realm, he had been cultivating for about 130,000 years. He excelled in the Origin Law of Wind, had killed an alien Immortal head-on in the Outer Battlefield, had displayed a self-created Marquis Level blade technique in the Virtual Universe, had chosen the Jinghong Chaos Stele lineage, had passed the 13th level of the Heavenly Bridge immediately upon entering the Initial Universe, the 14th level of the Illusion Sea, achieved a perfect score on the Immortal Altar, and had exchanged for the first six levels of Shadow Sweep, Floating Light, and Miscellaneous Theories of Clear Shadows in the Virtual Universe Company's internal treasury.

Oh, and he was the one who decided to let him enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm.

It had been over three years, and he was only now applying for a mentor? Even staying in the Initial Universe, it had been over a year.

He probably just exchanged for the secret techniques and became immersed in them. After all, he came from a cosmic secret realm, and after entering the Outer Battlefield, he had only exchanged for Extreme Wind Secret Canon, a common Marquis Level combat technique. It was very likely he became immersed after obtaining more profound techniques.

The towering man reviewed the retrieved information and then cast his gaze toward a massive screen on the other side, which displayed a vast amount of data regarding the human race's King Level powerhouses.

As one of the six peak races in the Primal Universe, the human race's strength went without saying. Not only did they possess a supreme being of the universe, but over a dozen Universe Masters and thousands of Universe Venerables were also the pillars of the race. The Immortals below them were the best mentors for cultivating the younger generation!

Of course, the gap in strength among these Immortals was equally vast, from the weakest ordinary Army Lord Immortal to the strongest "Invincible King" who could escape from the hands of a Venerable. To say the gap in strength between them was ten thousand times would be an understatement!

Primary Army Lord Immortal, Advanced Army Lord Immortal, Primary Marquis Level, Advanced Marquis Level, Peak Marquis Level, Primary King Level, Advanced King Level, Peak King Level, Limit King Level, Invincible King Level—there were ten distinct spans of strength in between.

Unlike the little ones brought in from the Genius Battles and Warrior Battles, for whom sending an ordinary Immortal or a Marquis Level Immortal was sufficient for daily guidance, for a World Lord General like Ye Muxuan who could create his own Marquis Level blade technique, after passing the 13th level of the Heavenly Bridge, let alone a Marquis, even an Advanced King Level might not be qualified to guide him. Even a weaker Peak King Level might not satisfy him.

As a Universe Overlord, the towering man naturally understood the talent of a World Lord who could emerge from a cosmic secret realm and slay an Immortal. Not to mention, this World Lord had only been cultivating for 130,000 years and had relied solely on a Marquis Level combat technique.

This was why he was willing to let him enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm.

However, there were not many Immortals with law comprehension above the Peak King Level currently available at his disposal. Moreover, King Level Immortals had diverse personalities; not every Peak King Level Immortal had the desire to teach disciples.

Furthermore, such a genius had already joined the Virtual Universe Company, so he naturally could not be handed over to an Immortal of the Hong Alliance's alien races for guidance. Only the human race's own Immortals were more trustworthy, and ideally, those under the Virtual Universe Company itself were best.

Tianjing King, Shaoling King, Ziyu King, Moke King—these were the four Immortals currently staying in Chaos City who happened to follow the Jinghong Chaos Stele lineage. However, they had entered Chaos City precisely to avoid trivial matters and focus entirely on comprehending the Law of Time, hoping to master the complete Law of Time and step into the rank of Venerable! Even their lectures were only occasional, so they naturally could not serve as mentors.

As for the other King Level powerhouses of the Jinghong lineage staying in Chaos City, the situation was much the same, not to mention that they were not even King Level powerhouses of the Virtual Universe Company.

Wait...

The towering man's expression suddenly shifted; he thought of a great existence.
