"Yes, Liu Hengyu seems to be a representative of the Special Enrollment Student from Sunan Province, and he's one of the two vice class monitors in our class now," Huang Yuande explained. "I remember when I was at the Sunan Province Genius Training Camp, Liu Hengyu's ability wasn't even in the top twenty, right?"

I never imagined I'd become a Special Enrollment Student representative for Sunan Province.

Ruan Liusu glanced at Liu Hengyu and said indifferently, "Liu Hengyu, with your meager abilities, why are you competing with others for a promotion spot? Just withdraw voluntarily, stay in the Key Class for another half month to hone your skills, and then consider promoting again."

"No, I'm already at the Bone Refining stage, so the Class Promotion Assessment is no problem for me," Liu Hengyu couldn't help but say.

"What? Do you think my word doesn't carry weight? Or do you think you're invincible now that we're outside of Sunan Province?"

Liu Hengyu's face was grim. He knew that Ruan Liusu had only been in the Sunan Province Genius Team for a few months, yet she had already achieved fourth place in the overall martial arts competition. Her martial arts talent was far superior to his own, and Ruan Liusu's family background was also among the best in Sunan Province. He really didn't want to make enemies with Ruan Liusu.

What if, after being promoted, I'm still assigned to one of the Sunan Province Genius Group, constantly suppressed and targeted by Ruan Liusu? It would be better not to be promoted at all. But to withdraw from the Class Promotion Assessment competition in front of so many people just because of a single sentence from Ruan Liusu would be utterly humiliating.

"Ruan Liusu, we are from the same hometown after all. You don't need to target me like this for someone from another province, do you?"

"Don't try to connect with me. There are over 100 million people from my hometown in Sunan Province. I already said, withdraw voluntarily, or you'll bear the consequences..."

"Fine, I'll refund it!"

Liu Hengyu was furious. So what if he had to wait another half a month? He would wait!

Even if he insists on not backing down, after getting past Chen Lie, there's still Tang Guanlin. With Tang Guanlin's strength, he might not even get a spot in the Class Promotion Assessment.

Making enemies with Ruan Liusu now would likely lead to Ruan Liusu suppressing and targeting even if they got into the Genius Class. There was really no need for that. The students around were all shocked.

Who is this beautiful girl with a high ponytail and catfish whiskers? Why is Liu Hengyu acting like a coward in front of her?

Zhao Ziyan, who was behind, said, "Liu Hengyu, there's no need for you to hold a grudge. Liusu's decision to withdraw you from the competition is actually a good thing for you. You're not good enough; you wouldn't have gotten anywhere competing with Chen Lie."

Liu Hengyu's face turned ashen. Was this telling him that Chen Lie had a powerful background that he couldn't afford to offend?

However, putting aside whether Chen Lie truly has an unassailable background, now that both Sunan Province Genius Group are openly or covertly supporting him, he can't stubbornly continue to fight.

"Alright, everyone, you can all leave now!"

Mu Ningshu then began to disperse the students from the classroom.

She approached Liu Hengyu and asked, "Liu Hengyu, are you sure you want to withdraw from the competition for a place in the Class Promotion Assessment?"

"I'm leaving! I'm leaving!"

After saying this, Liu Hengyu turned and left the classroom.

Mu Ningshu glanced at Ruan Liusu and Zhao Ziyan with surprise.

These two people, who were so bossy towards Liu Hengyu, judging from their words just now, could they be members of the Sunan Province Genius Group?

How could Chen Lie, East River Province Martial Leader —a remote, small province—be connected to members of the Sunan Province Genius Group?

That's an incredible network of connections!

Before long, most of the students in the classroom had left.

Ruan Liusu came to Chen Lie's side and took out what she was holding.

"Chen Lie, this is Star Liquid, 180 ml per bottle, and also the Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure you specified, the Huan Water Lotus. I remember you mentioned yesterday that you were quite interested in the Blue Star Consciousness Spirit Atlas, so I brought that for you as well."

Chen Lie noticed a small green porcelain bottle in Ruan Liusu's hand, along with a briefcase containing martial arts resources and a black-covered booklet. "Alright, I'll accept them!"

Chen Lie took the item from Ruan Liusu's hand. He examined the Star Liquid closely. Inside the bottle, starlight shimmered; this was the Star Liquid. 180 milliliters of Star Liquid could only satisfy the most basic human needs once. Chen Lie knew that 2000 milliliters of Star Liquid was enough to increase a person's Strength Value by more than 0.5 times, even if his Blood Qi Value was more than twelve times greater.

The first 2000 ml of Star Liquid consumed by a person who has never used Star Liquid before will have the greatest effect.

After consuming more than 2000 ml of Star Liquid, Star Liquid effectiveness will be greatly reduced due to the body producing antibodies, but it will still have remarkable effects.

"Star Liquid?"

Mu Ningshu skipped a beat. She had heard of Star Liquid before; it was said that the Star Dollar Liquid imported from Outer Stars was diluted from Star Liquid. Star Liquid was a hundred times more precious than Star Dollar Liquid, and if consumed in excess within a month, it could cause a person's Strength Value to surge. Such a precious thing was something she would be eager to possess herself; how could she possibly give it away so easily?

Chen Lie placed the porcelain bottle of Star Liquid into the briefcase, then looked at the black-covered booklet.

"This is the Blue Star Consciousness Spirit Atlas, the version from ten years ago in the Canglan Star Domain," Ruan Liusu said.

"Okay, I'll take a look when I have time," Chen Lie nodded.

"No, Chen Lie, isn't this someone from your East River Provincial Genius Group?"

Huang Yuande, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but ask.

With just two simple sentences, Liu Hengyu was forced to back down. How could the East River Provincial Genius Group do that? Liu Hengyu was practically the third most important person in their 15th Key Class.

Zhao Ziyan then added with a hint of disdain, "What East River Provincial Genius Group? We're from Southern Sunan Province!"

"Sunan Province? Liu Hengyu seems to be from Sunan Province too, no wonder he backed down."

Huang Yuande then realized that the two girls in front of him were from Sunan Province.

Isn't Chen Lie from East River Province? How come he knows people from Sunan Province?

"Ziyan, why don't you go back first?" Ruan Liusu said to Zhao Ziyan.

"Didn't you say there would be Advanced Rare Treasure Meal? I came with you, and you're just sending me away like this?" Zhao Ziyan said, somewhat dissatisfied. "Then why don't you go wait for us at the cafeteria in the First Campus?"

"That's more like it!"

Zhao Ziyan glanced at Ruan Liusu, then turned and left.

After Zhao Ziyan left, Ruan Liusu saw that there were still so many people in the classroom, so she pulled Chen Lie out of the classroom and went to a secluded place.

"Chen Lie, take a look at the Consciousness Spirit Illustrated Handbook. It seems that Bian'an is ranked 36th."

Ruan Liusu took the Consciousness Spirit Atlas from Chen Lie's hand and turned to the page introducing the Consciousness Spirit of the Divine Bian'an.

[Consciousness Spirit - Li'an, the 36th Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit in the Canglan Star Domain, can amplify Mental Power attacks by 10-15 times, is effective against all Consciousness Spirit below the Heaven-Grade, and possesses the power to Piercing Delusion...]

The creation of Consciousness Spirit Du'an is extremely difficult. It's nearly impossible to succeed with Mental Power score below 16,000,000. Even if one manages to create one by chance, it's difficult to control if the Mental Power score in the Sea of Consciousness is below 16,000,000, unless the Mental Power level reaches the Seventh Tier...

[Consciousness Spirit - Li'an: A Brief Explanation of the Method for Forging Bian'an Before Entering the Rank of Divine Sense Master...]

"What does ' Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit' mean?"

Chen Lie glanced at the description of Bian'an in the Consciousness Spirit Illustrated Handbook and asked.

Ruan Liusu replied, "I heard from the instructors of the Genius Class that the so-called Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit is the highest-level Consciousness Spirit in the Canglan Star Domain."

A typical Divine Sense Master's Consciousness Spirit at the Mortal-Grade, and their power is generally limited.

The spiritual Consciousness Spirit created by some powerful Divine Sense Master, possessing the characteristics of wind, thunder, and fire, are mostly at the Spirit-Grade.

The Consciousness Spirit, endowed with life, is at the Earth-Grade.

The Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit is the highest level of Consciousness Spirit, and such Consciousness Spirit is extremely rare.

In his previous life in the Central Galactic Empire, Chen Lie had never heard of anyone classifying the levels of Consciousness Spirit in such detail.

Without a doubt, this is something that the Canglan Star Domain came up with on its own. I doubt anyone outside the Canglan Star Domain has ever heard of Consciousness Spirit being divided into so many levels.

"Aren't you in the Martial Way Department? How come the Martial Way Department instructors are explaining the types of Consciousness Spirit of Divine Sense Master?"

"Because the Genius Class originally advocated that students cultivate both martial arts and Mental Power, I underwent a Mental Power talent test on the second day after I registered at Blue Star University. In fact, I had also been tested for Mental Power talent many times when I was in Sunan Province, and it was a gold talent."

My dad suggested I take on the role of Divine Sense Master, but seeing how easily the Divine Sense Master trainees at the Sunan Province Genius Training Camp fared, I didn't waste my time taking on the Divine Sense Master.

"I only realized how powerful Divine Sense Master is yesterday when I was hunting Illusion Beast with you in the Sumeru Illusion Realm," Ruan Liusu said.

"Divine Sense Master is a profession, and strength varies from person to person. Just like in martial arts, two people with 100 Blood Qi Value and 10,000 Blood Qi Value cannot be compared."

When martial arts reach a high level, it is difficult to make any further progress without a corresponding level of Mental Power.

Since you've been diagnosed with a gold-level talent, it means your Mental Power talent is quite good. I suggest you continue to cultivate your Mental Power as well.

Ruan Liusu hummed in agreement, but felt puzzled. Wasn't the golden talent the most powerful type of Mental Power? Why did Chen Lie only say that her talent was "not bad"?

"Chen Lie, your Consciousness Spirit ranks 36th in the Canglan Star Domain, which should be considered exceptionally powerful, right?"

"I don't know, we'll find out when we get to Starry Sky University," Chen Lie said.

"The Consciousness Spirit Illustrated Handbook records a total of 1,897 kinds of Consciousness Spirit, of which only 60 are of the Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit. However, this expanded version from ten years ago has certainly been updated countless times since then."

Here's the Consciousness Spirit Illustrated Handbook; you can take a look if you're interested."

"Okay, I understand." Chen Lie nodded.

At this moment, Huang Yuande came out of the classroom and said, "Chen Lie, it's lunchtime, shall we go to the cafeteria together?"

Chen Lie said to Ruan Liusu, "Let's go have a meal together."

Ruan Liusu smiled and nodded, then walked out of the Teaching Building with Chen Lie.

Teaching Building, many students from the Sunan Province Genius Training Camp were discussing the matter.

"Was that girl just now Ruan Liusu?"

"They look very similar. I read a news report in the Sunan Times. Ruan Liusu is the youngest Blood-Qi Extreme Realm in our Southern Sunan Province. She came in fourth place in the All-Member Martial Competition the Sunan Province Genius Group."

"That's not just a resemblance, it's Ruan Liusu herself. I stayed in the Genius Training Camp for half a year and saw Ruan Liusu more than once."

When Ruan Liusu was not yet seventeen years old, she was already one of the top students in the Sunan Province Genius Training Camp. When Ruan Liusu dominated the Genius Training Camp, Liu Hengyu was not even ranked, at best a lackey.

"No wonder Liu Hengyu was so cowardly just now. But how does Ruan Liusu know Chen Lie? And why did she take the initiative to find him?"

Mu Ningshu, who was listening to the discussion among the students from Sunan Province, was also taken aback.

That girl, who looks even younger than me, is actually fourth in the martial arts All-Member Martial Competition Sunan Province Genius Group? And she's the youngest Blood-Qi Extreme Realm from Sunan Province Sunan Province —how could she be connected to the Chuanzhong Province?

At this moment, Chen Lie and Ruan Liusu walked out of the Teaching Building together.

When the students from Sunan Province saw Ruan Liusu, they scattered immediately.

After leaving the Teaching Building, Chen Lie went straight to the cafeteria.

Zhao Ziyan was waiting in the cafeteria of the First Campus of Blue Star University.

After a while, she saw Chen Lie and Ruan Liusu walk into the restaurant together.

Zhao Ziyan stepped forward and looked at Chen Liedao, "You've finally arrived. Take your Credit Card out; I'm going to get a Advanced Rare Treasure Meal." Ruan Liusu immediately handed over a Credit Card: "Use mine!"

"How can I use yours? He just said he'd arrange it." Zhao Ziyan glanced at Chen Liedao, "You can't be so down on your luck that you can't even afford a meal, can you?"

Chen Lie handed the Credit Card directly to Zhao Ziyan and said, "Use it however you like."

"Then I'll do as you say." Zhao Ziyan took the Credit Card and went straight to the food counter.

"Let's find a seat!"

Chen Lie pointed to the table next to him.

"Okay!" Ruan Liusu nodded and walked to her seat with Chen Lie.

Huang Yuande, who came with Chen Lie, went directly to the food window to get his food.

"Chen Lie, are you going to take the Class Promotion Assessment?"

"Um!"

"If you exceed the standard in the Class Promotion Assessment, it seems you can choose your own class. Are you interested in joining our 6th Genius Class?"

"Let's see!"

As Chen Lie and Ruan Liusu were talking, Zhao Ziyan finished getting her food and came over.

She gave one of the two meals she had prepared to Chen Lie and one to Ruan Liusu.

Then, Huang Yuande also placed two meals on the table.

Zhao Ziyan tossed the Credit Card to Chen Lie and said, "Four Super Rare Beast Meat Meal, plus four bottles of Star Dollar Liquid, totaling 820 Credit." As she spoke, Zhao Ziyan placed the four bottles of Star Dollar Liquid on the dining table.

Chen Lie put away the Credit Card Credit Card a blank expression.

Huang Yuande said, "Chen Lie, I didn't mean to cheat you. It was this classmate who insisted on having so much. With my abilities, I can only afford one Advanced Rare Treasure Meal at most."

"This Super Rare Beast Meat Meal is a special treat for students in the Genius Class. One serving is worth 80 Credit. I feel like I'm wasting it even if I eat it. There's also a bottle of Star Dollar Liquid..." "Don't mention that. It's just a few hundred Credit. I can afford it," Chen Lie said.

"All right!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Yuande said nothing more and sat down to eat.

After all, a meal worth 80 Credit shouldn't be wasted.

Ruan Liusu said, "Chen Lie, the Galactic Coin you exchanged at the Sumeru Illusion Realm Crystal Core yesterday..."

"You can take it."

"All right!"

Ruan Liusu nodded and said no more.

It's just a little over two thousand Galactic Coin, no need to make such a fuss.

Chen Lie picked up a bottle of Star Dollar Liquid, opened it, and drank it all in one gulp.

With his Strength Value, a bottle of Star Dollar Liquid would have almost no effect on him.

After quickly finishing their meal, at Zhao Ziyan's prompting, Ruan Liusu stood up and Chen Liedao, "Chen Lie, I have martial arts practice this afternoon, so I'll be leaving now." "Okay, let's get together again sometime." Chen Lie nodded; he also wanted to try out the effects of the Star Liquid.

"Okay, bye-bye."

Ruan Liusu waved to Chen Lie and then walked out of the restaurant with Zhao Ziyan.

Just as Chen Lie was about to get up and leave, Chen Lie Zhao Ziyan returned, glaring at him and beginning to lecture him.

"Hey kid, you're really lucky. Your family found you such a good marriage."

As your friend, I can see it clearly. Liusu is completely devoted to you. She always thinks of you when there's something good. She even abandoned her own province's military training duties to help you hunt Exotic Beast during military training.

Aren't you being a bit too complacent and taking things for granted?

Chen Lie frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"You know perfectly well what I mean. I'm just reminding you not to accept benefits so readily. When you accept benefits, you should at least give something in return, right?"

He doesn't act like a boyfriend at all. I really don't know what Liusu saw in you."

After Zhao Ziyan finished speaking, she picked up the unfinished Star Dollar Liquid from the table and hurriedly left the restaurant.

Huang Yuande, who was standing nearby, was shocked. "Chen Lie, you're dating that girl from the Genius Group in Sunan Province?"

Chen Lie shook his head. Zhao Ziyan's words had aroused his suspicions. He would definitely ask Ruan Liusu about the situation next time they met.

Seeing Chen Lie shake his head, Huang Yuande did not believe him.

He thought to himself: Chen Lie is so lucky. He even managed to win over the Heavenly Pride Daughter in Sunan Province.

No wonder he has such high standards; he already has someone better.

After leaving the restaurant, Chen Lie returned to Dormitory Dormitory and retrieved two Thousand-Year Spirit Medicine and two rare Martial Dao Rare Treasure.

He now possesses Star Liquid, Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure that can be cultivated into the Kui Water Kidney.

This afternoon, he's going to elevate his strength to the next level.

After leaving the Dormitory, Chen Lie took the resources directly to a Cultivation Room on the fourth floor.

Arriving at the training platform in the middle of the Cultivation Room, Chen Lie laid out several martial arts resources in a row and sat down cross-legged.

He first disassembled the Second-Order Martial Dao Rare Treasure of the water attribute, the Huan Water Lotus.

The Huan Water Lotus was a palm-sized crystal lotus. Chen Lie held the Huan Water Lotus in his palm, and a surge of blood energy flowed from his Chen Lie, instantly engulfing the Huan Water Lotus.

The power of the Huan Water Lotus was swept into Chen Lie's body by his blood and qi. Chen Lie immediately began to circulate the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique>, a cultivation method for Organ Refining, and began to cultivate the "Ren Water Kidney".

Within Chen Lie's body, the flow of Qi was smooth, and the water-attribute power brought by the Huan Water Lotus began to slowly nourish Chen Lie's kidneys. After an unknown amount of time, Chen Lie's kidneys began to flash with a blue light.

As the Organ Refining method of the <Flood Dragon Rebirth Technique> was advanced, the blue light emanating from the kidneys gradually intensified.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Lie's kidneys suddenly emitted a bright blue light, which tinged Chen Lie body with a faint blue hue.
