999! Spirit Sea Realm!

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Xu Yue lay down on the spirit power testing chair, quietly waiting for the results to appear.

Accompanied by a faint hum, Xu Yue felt a cooling sensation in his brain as an inexplicable ripple swept through his Sea of Spirit.

Outside, everyone watched the numbers jumping on the display screen, their mouths hanging open wider and wider.

On the indicator light, the white color representing the Spirit Origin Realm jumped almost instantly to the yellow color representing the Spirit Connection Realm.

One hundred, two hundred, four hundred...

Even though the number had already surpassed Gu Yue's three hundred and twenty-one, there was no sign of it slowing down; instead, it accelerated.

Ding!

With a soft chime, the yellow indicator light jumped to purple in an instant.

This signified that Xu Yue's spirit power had completely transcended the Spirit Connection Realm, reaching the Spirit Sea Realm that only Soul Kings, Soul Emperors, or even Soul Saints possessed.

A moment later, the jumping numbers came to a complete stop.

The entire room fell into absolute silence; even the faintest sound of breathing ceased at this moment.

Everyone stared blankly at a number they couldn't even begin to imagine.

"Nine hundred and ninety-nine?!"

(Lord Wolf Venerable! Wuwu! I miss you so much!)

Whether it was Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi, Tang Wulin, or Xie Xie, they all couldn't help but gulp.

They all looked at Xu Yue as if he were a monster.

Spirit Sea Realm!

Nearly one thousand points—and he wasn't just at the entry level of the Spirit Sea Realm; he had already traveled quite a distance within this stage.

Once spirit power reaches the Spirit Sea Realm, it means he possesses the qualifications to contract a black Soul Spirit and absorb a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring.

As long as his physical constitution allows it, there would be no issues at all.

Judging by Xu Yue's talent, perhaps in only one or two years, once his soul power reaches level forty, he could directly contract a ten-thousand-year Soul Spirit.

"That's not right! Brother A-Yue!"

As someone who had always been by Xu Yue's side, Xu Xiaoyan stared blankly at the scene, suddenly exclaiming in surprise.

"I remember you told me when you graduated from the Primary Academy that you hadn't reached the Spirit Sea Realm yet!"

"It's only been a few months, how could it have increased so quickly?"

This information shocked everyone present once again.

"What? Xu Yue wasn't at the Spirit Sea Realm a few months ago!"

Xie Xie blurted out, thinking of legendary treasures like the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew that had been famous for ages.

"Could it be that he ate some kind of heaven-sent treasure?"

"It's possible, otherwise it wouldn't have increased so fast!"

"I'm so envious of Brother Yue!"

The crowd discussed it heatedly, their eyes filled with envy as they looked at Xu Yue.

However.

Wu Zhangkong directly denied their speculations.

"No!"

The crowd was stunned upon hearing this, looking at Wu Zhangkong with some surprise.

The man, however, looked intently at Xu Yue, who was rising from the testing chair, and said with certainty.

"I think the rapid growth of your spirit power must be because of your Spear Intent!"

"Spear Intent?!" The crowd was shocked once again.

"That's right, Spear Intent!" Wu Zhangkong nodded in confirmation. "When I sparred with Xu Yue, I felt the mental intent attached to his spear, which exerted impact and pressure on his Sea of Spirit."

"And that is precisely the characteristic of Spear Intent."

Meeting the curious gazes of the crowd, he began to explain.

"This is not knowledge you should be learning yet, but since it has come up, I will tell you about it."

Wu Zhangkong paused, then said seriously.

"Any Soul Master who practices with weapons, whether it be blades, spears, swords, halberds, or others, will touch upon the three realms of Intent, Soul, and Spirit once their technique reaches a certain level."

"This is a Soul Master's realization regarding their own weapon, and it is also the condensation of their mental intent."

"Once comprehended, not only will their spirit power be refined, but it will also be of great help to the growth and breakthroughs of their spirit power."

"Most importantly, it provides a massive boost to a Soul Master's combat effectiveness!"

"A Soul Master who has just entered the Soul Elder realm, if they comprehend an intent, can easily defeat high-level Soul Masters of the same realm."

"Even in Shrek, this is a symbol of a genius."

"Hiss..."

Hearing this, everyone immediately gasped, looking at Xu Yue as if they were staring at a monster.

"That's right!" Meeting their gazes, Xu Yue nodded with a smile. "After I comprehended my Spear Intent some time ago, I could feel my Spirit Realm growth rate far exceeding its usual pace."

Especially after comprehending the Spear Intent of Water, the growth rate was even two points faster than the tempering from the Spear Intent of Rock alone.

"Student Xu Yue, your spear technique looks somewhat familiar. May I ask which family you studied under?" Wu Zhangkong asked, then added, "If it's inconvenient, you don't have to say."

"I studied the Soul-Breaking Spear of the Yang Family," Xu Yue replied.

"The Soul-Breaking Spear?! No wonder!" Wu Zhangkong realized with a start. "However, you seem to have broken free from the original constraints of the Soul-Breaking Spear and carved out your own path. Very good."

After offering his praise, Wu Zhangkong's expression returned to its usual coldness, his gaze sweeping over Wang Jinxi, Xie Xie, and the others.

"Some of you have Spirit Realm levels that completely exceed my expectations, but others need to work harder, understand?"

"Understood!!" everyone shouted in unison.

Immediately after, Wu Zhangkong took Xu Yue and the others to another testing room to begin the physical strength tests.

However, this time, Xu Yue did not participate.

It wasn't that he didn't want to shock the group, but the testing equipment provided by Eastsea Academy was completely insufficient to measure his upper limit.

The ten-thousand-kilogram tester was only ten tons, after all.

Before enrolling, Xu Yue had tested on Mu Chen's high-level strength tester; his arm strength was nearly three tons, and the impact force of his punch could reach about twelve tons.

If he utilized gravity amplification, it could increase even further.

It sounded like a lot, but don't forget, this was the era of Legend of the Dragon King, twenty thousand years later.

It was not the era of the Martial Soul Hall, a period where a Limit Douluo could only lift one hundred and eight thousand jin.

Moreover, although the Star of Eden possessed Ultimate Strength, it had no way to provide much of an increase to Xu Yue's body.

The physical strength Xu Yue currently possessed was primarily gained through his own bitter training and reliance on gravity.

To significantly increase his strength out of thin air, he would have to trigger the Purple Imperial Heaven-Destroying Dragon bloodline within his body.

Trigger my bloodline? That is indeed a method... Xu Yue thought to himself. It seems I should find a time to visit Uncle Zhen Hua; the Body Douluo is very knowledgeable in this area!

Just as Xu Yue was deep in thought, the strength test concluded.

Unsurprisingly, under Wu Zhangkong's additional request, Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon Claw once again pierced through the tester.

Eastsea Academy tester -1.

However, through this, everyone also indirectly felt the monstrous nature of Xu Yue's physical durability.

Even the metal-forged tester had been pierced by Tang Wulin's claw, yet Xu Yue had only suffered broken skin, not even counting as a minor injury.

"Very good, today's test data far exceeds my expectations. In the following lessons, I will explain knowledge regarding Battle Armor Masters, Mecha, and techniques to you all."

"Additionally, as your teacher, I sincerely hope that all of you will be able to enter Shrek Academy during the next round of admissions."

Hearing these encouraging words, most of them had eyes filled with surprise and excitement.

Especially Wei Xiaofeng; he never imagined that the Zero Class specifically set up by Eastsea Academy would allow them to come into contact with knowledge about Battle Armor Masters, and even have a chance to challenge Shrek Academy.

Wu Zhangkong looked at them and nodded with satisfaction.

"You may go back to rest. Tang Wulin, stay behind."
