Chapter Summaries

Yan Hai accepted Li Yao as his disciple and used the ceremony to challenge Bai Yang, drawing Councilors into a public test of allegiance. As the ceremony approached, Bai Yang chose not to respond openly and waited to see where people’s loyalties lay.

• Li Yao and his wife fled to Paris Base City and asked Yan Hai to protect them, while Yan Hai speculated that Bai Yang’s cultivation had stalled.
• Yan Hai formally accepted Li Yao as his disciple, gave him his cultivation journal, and announced a public ceremony for October 1, 2058.
• Yan Hai invited Councilors to the ceremony, and Atkin’s support turned attendance into a test of sides; Yan Hai also invited Jia Yi, who angrily refused.
• Star Guardian reported Yan Hai’s maneuvers to Bai Yang, who decided not to interfere and asked Thor and the other strongest person to remain silent.
• Huaxia Councilors, the Pasi Brothers, and many of Bai Yang’s cultivation-technique recipients said they would not attend, while HR Alliance Councilors remained evasive under Atkin’s pressure.
• October 1, 2058, arrived as the disciple-acceptance ceremony was set to begin.

Atkin and Yan Hai’s lavish ceremony for Li Yao was abandoned when Bai Yang began a livestreamed challenge of the Trial Tower’s sixth floor. Bai Yang entered the arena to face thirty Sea Snake Kings while War God Palace members watched.

• Atkin, Yan Hai, and Li Yao hosted a ceremony in Paris attended by Councilors’ representatives and Sago Nehru, while they tracked whether Bai Yang would leave home.

• Bai Yang entered the Trial Tower, where Thor and other viewers gathered to watch his challenge against thirty Sea Snake Kings.
• Merhand asked whether the sixth floor changed the challenger’s beginner War General body, and Thor said it did not as Bai Yang stepped into the combat zone.

Bai Yang used light refraction to vanish from view and killed all thirty Sea Snake Kings on the sixth floor. He left the Trial Tower after clearing it, planning to return for the seventh floor after advancing to Planetary Level.

• Bai Yang reappeared long enough to kill a Sea Snake King with a brilliant sword strike, then vanished again as the others attacked empty water.
• Hong explained that Bai Yang’s use of the [Refraction] profound meaning surpassed his own, while the War God councilors worried the ability might make Bai Yang unstoppable.
• Bai Yang attacked at intervals, killing one Sea Snake King each minute with varied sword techniques until all thirty were dead within forty minutes.
• Bai Yang exited the Trial Tower to return to work, and an announcement declared the sixth floor cleared and named him the second peerless powerhouse to do so.

After Bai Yang’s display of strength ruined the apprenticeship ceremony, the organizers gave up on confronting him, while Eben Pass and Anno saw new prospects for their future. In the War God Palace, Hong and Thor explained that Bai Yang’s power came from comprehending Cosmic Laws, leaving the councilors eager to learn more.

• Atkin, Yan Hai, Li Yao, and his wife left the War God Palace to observe the ceremony, then watched the venue empty and ended the event early.

• Bai Yang declined Star Guardian’s suggestion to visit the seventh floor, then offered to help her obtain a real body someday, lifting her spirits.
• Merhand asked Hong and Thor about Bai Yang’s strength, and Hong said it came from his own comprehension of Cosmic Laws rather than ancient technology.
• Thor told the councilors that Cosmic Laws could only be comprehended, not learned from a specific cultivation method.

Luo Feng and Bai Yang found a pristine X81 spacecraft inside the flagship wreckage, but its sealed hatch required strength they lacked. Luo Feng revealed Babata and asked to borrow the spacecraft if they claimed it, while Bai Yang introduced Star Guardian, leaving Babata shocked to discover another intelligent lifeform had been nearby.

• Bai Yang led Luo Feng through the flagship and explained that Ruins No. 12 was a cabin inside it.

• Bai Yang and Luo Feng knocked the robots back until Star Guardian and Babata stopped them.

Bai Yang and Luo Feng explored the sunken spacecraft, but the command room’s intelligent program self-destructed and damaged some power systems.
