Glimmer Star, Gu Tianyuan
Chen Lie stood up and used his divine sense to examine his current physical condition.
Even without using his Mental Power, he could easily defeat an ordinary Blood Refining Stage cultivator using only his martial arts strength. Realizing his strength was still slightly lacking, Chen Lie used two Resource Gold Booklet to exchange for two Martial Dao Rare Treasure that increased blood energy intensity and two that increased blood energy purity, raising his Blood Qi Value to 2507.37 calories and his strength to 32481.75 jun. His Strength Value was less than 0.1 times away from thirteen times the required amount.
But even this tiny 0.1 times is extremely difficult to break through.
Because his own Strength Value has already reached a fairly high base, the only way to break through is to use Stellar Treasure like Star Liquid. In addition, cultivating Pure Yang Precious Blood can also greatly improve the purity of blood and qi. If he fails to grasp the Pure Yang Precious Blood stage and increase his Strength Value by 15 times in one fell swoop, then he will be unable to reach the third level of the Blood-Qi Extreme Realm, the realm of blood and qi as violent as a dragon and as vast as the sea.
"After the Organ Refining Stage Completion, if one wants to cultivate Pure Yang Precious Blood, one must obtain a rare item like the Star Liquid, a Stellar Treasure."
This kind of thing definitely doesn't exist on Blue Star. If you want to obtain it, you must demonstrate your own value.
Chen Lie pondered for a while. Even if Blue Star wanted to obtain the rare item he needed for cultivating his precious blood from Outer Stars, it would come at a price. Therefore, Chen Lie had long planned ahead. Since he had been suppressed to this extent and discovered by the authorities, Blue Star would naturally offer some compensation to prevent geniuses from being discouraged. The amount of this compensation would depend on how much value he could demonstrate.
The combined value of his Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit, eight times his Strength Value, and over two million points in his Sea of Consciousness Score should be enough to justify the official effort to purchase what he needs from Outer Stars.
The next morning, Chen Lie took a public airship to the Thirteenth Campus.
The Thirteenth Campus is a gathering place for the top geniuses of Blue Star University, and the location of the Super Genius Class.
As Luo Zhixun had previously told Chen Lie, there were fewer than one hundred people in the Super Genius Class. Only those ranked in the top fifty on the Blood Qi Ranking and the Divine Sense Master Ranking were qualified to enter the Super Genius Class. Only by entering the Super Genius Class could one be considered to have squeezed into the ranks of the top geniuses on Blue Star.
The reason why the Super Genius Class has less than 100 students is that the top 50 on the Blood Qi Ranking and the top 50 on the Divine Sense Master Ranking largely overlap. The Thirteenth Campus is the smallest campus of Blue Star University. Even including the External Student in the Super Genius Class, it has less than 1,000 students, but it enjoys far more martial arts resources than any other campus.
Upon arriving at the Thirteenth Campus, Chen Lie asked a passerby for directions and learned where the registration area for the External Student in the Super Genius Class was located.
Upon arriving at the registration area, Chen Lie found it almost deserted.
Just as Chen Lie was about to enter an office for registration, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.
"Chen Lie, what are you doing here?"
Chen Lie turned his head and saw that the person who had called out to him was actually Ji Lingxuan.
At that moment, Ji Lingxuan was looking at him with a strange expression.
Upon seeing Ji Lingxuan, Chen Lie was immediately surprised. "You've broken through to the Blood Refining Stage?"
Ji Lingxuan hummed in agreement. "It happened two days ago."
"Your cultivation progress is quite fast."
"It's alright, I'm just following the steps. My cultivation level was already a bit higher than yours, but now there's almost no difference between us, which means your progress is faster than mine," Ji Lingxuan said.
Chen Lie didn't say much. His advanced Martial Arts Knowledge was far superior to Ji Lingxuan's; how could they be compared?
"Why is Chen Lie here? Could it be that he has also met the criteria for being External Student student in the Super Genius Class?" Ji Lingxuan asked. "He hasn't met the criteria, but I have a letter of recommendation that allows him to become External Student in the Super Genius Class directly."
Judging from your words, are you perhaps also External Student who came here to report for duty?
"I am." Ji Lingxuan nodded, then added, "Could it be that Chen Lie hasn't reached the Organ Refining Stage Completion?"
"I just finished cultivating the Five Viscera yesterday, and the Organ Refining Stage is now complete."
"Having reached the Organ Refining Stage Completion, doesn't that already meet the standard for External Student in the Super Genius Class?"
"Aren't there other criteria for External Student?"
"Isn't it just a golden talent in Mental Power and a perfect martial arts physique? Could it be that Chen Lie isn't one?" Ji Lingxuan curiously.
Chen Lie did not answer Ji Lingxuan's question, but instead asked, "You are also External Student has registered. Do you know the registration process?" "No, my advisor came with me, and she is handling my registration."
Did Chen Lie not have his tutor come along to guide him through the process?
"No!" Chen Lie shook his head, wondering if he should send a message to his teaching assistant or tutor to ask them to come over. "Oh, I see. Then I'll ask my tutor to help you with the registration later," Ji Lingxuan said.
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you."
"You are welcome."
After Ji Lingxuan finished speaking, she went to an office to find her tutor in the Genius Class.
Just then, Li Ruolin, Ji Lingxuan Lingxuan's tutor in the Genius Class, walked out of her office.
"Student Ji, your registration has been completed. Now I'll take you to the Thirteenth Campus to register."
Ji Lingxuan then said, "Wait... Teacher, I need your help with something."
"Speak, what is it!"
"Professor, you met Chen Lie before. He's here to register today, but his supervisor isn't with him, so I'd like to ask you to help him with the procedures for becoming External Student."
"Huh? It's you?"
Li Ruolin looked at Chen Lie behind Ji Lingxuan.
She remembered that Chen Lie had tested his talent to the maximum level. With his aptitude, becoming External Student in the Super Genius Class would be no problem for him. So she said, "You also meet the standards for External Student, right? The External Student strength assessment has already been done?"
"No, but I have a letter of recommendation."
"What letter?" Li Ruolin asked.
Chen Lie handed the letter directly to Li Ruolin.
Li Ruolin took the letter from Chen Lie and was immediately shocked. She murmured, "It's actually a letter from Principal Qin. You know Principal Qin Zhenwei?"
Chen Lie simply nodded, but didn't say anything more.
Li Ruolin was puzzled. Of course she knew Qin Zhenwei; he was a renowned Ninth-Order Grandmaster Martial Artist.
With connections to Ninth-Order Grandmaster, how could he possibly be suppressed by any powerful figures? What powerful figure could ignore a Ninth-Order Grandmaster?
"With this letter of recommendation, you don't need to go through all this trouble. Just come with me. I'll take you and Ji Lingxuan to the Super Genius Class in the Thirteenth Campus. You can give this letter to the tutor of the Super Genius Class, and he'll know what to do," Li Ruolin said, handing the letter back to Chen Lie.
Ji Lingxuan looked at the letter in Chen Lie's hand with a puzzled expression.
"Alright, you two, come with me."
After saying one sentence, Li Ruolin turned around and left the registration area first.
Chen Lie and Ji Lingxuan caught up with Li Ruolin.
They followed Li Ruolin to the square of the Thirteenth Campus.
Chen Lie could see from afar that many students were taking turns fighting on the Duel Platform.
"Tomorrow, a group of martial arts geniuses from the Five Stars of the Eastern Region will come to Blue Star to exchange martial arts techniques."
Unless you're External Student in the Super Genius Class, you won't have the opportunity to come into contact with alien martial arts.
Ji Lingxuan, the reason I made you External Student in the Super Genius Class in such a hurry is because of this matter.
"Outer Stars martial arts have their unique aspects. If you can exchange martial arts techniques with Outer Stars visitors, it might be beneficial for you. You should make the most of this opportunity tomorrow."
Li Ruolin said.
"Alien martial arts..."
Ji Lingxuan murmured to herself. She had never learned anything about extraterrestrial martial arts, and a slight curiosity arose within her about them.
Soon, Li Ruolin arrived at the square and called out to the male instructor who was lecturing several students.
"Yu Yuan, come here for a moment."
Upon hearing this, the male instructor immediately stopped lecturing the students and went to Li Ruolin.
"Oh? Isn't this Li Ruolin, the tutor from the Genius Class? What brings you to the Thirteenth Campus today?" the male tutor asked.
Li Ruolin said expressionlessly, "Enough with the nonsense, I've brought two External Student from the Super Genius Class for you today."
"Two? Your class is so full of talented people, how come you can have two students become External Student in the Super Genius Class?" The male teacher was slightly surprised.
"One of these two students is in my class, and the other is in the First Genius Class, Tan Qihui's class."
Li Ruolin didn't say much, but directly handed a document to the male tutor.
The male supervisor took the document, glanced at it, and immediately asked, "There's only one person's registration form. Where's the other person's?"
Li Ruolin gave Chen Lie a wink and said, "Give your letter of recommendation to this person."
Chen Lie nodded and handed over the letter.
The male tutor took the letter Chen Lie handed him, glanced at it, and immediately asked, "A letter of recommendation from Professor Qin? What's your relationship with Professor Qin?" "Alright, Yu Yuan, why are you asking so many questions? If you know it's a letter from Principal Qin, just follow it. Why are you asking so many questions?" "Professor Qin has always been of high moral character and almost never interferes with the cultivation of geniuses. Why would he...?"
"You don't need to doubt this or that. This Chen Lie is qualified to join the Super Genius Class. This status External Student is a bit unworthy of him," Li Ruolin said.
"Not good enough? What do you mean?"
Li Ruolin didn't bother explaining to the male instructor, but instead said directly to Chen Lie and Ji Lingxuan, "This is one of the instructors for the Super Genius Class, named Yu Yuan. If you encounter any problems in the Thirteenth Campus in the future, just look for him."
Ji Lingxuan and Chen Lie greeted Yu Yuan, calling out, "Professor Yu."
Yu Yuan nodded and said, "There are more than 500 External Student in our Super Genius Class who are not officially enrolled. They usually practice martial arts here, in the square of the Thirteenth Campus."
The Thirteenth Campus is equipped with all kinds of martial arts facilities, including a separate Sumeru Illusion Realm.
"The students are practicing martial arts now. You can also go up on stage and have a match. I'll introduce it to you when all the students gather tomorrow." Yu Yuan said, and then told Chen Lie and Ji Lingxuan about the restaurants and dormitories in the Thirteenth Campus. During this time, Li Ruolin said goodbye and left.
Finally, Yu Yuan said to Ji Lingxuan and Chen Lie, "Tomorrow, young Martial Artist from the Five Stars of the Eastern Region, Red Flame Planet and Shuimang Star, will be visiting Blue Star. There should be a session where they will exchange martial arts ideas with us, so please try not to miss it."
After saying this, Yu Yuan let Chen Lie and Ji Lingxuan explore the Thirteenth Campus on their own.
After Yu Yuan left, Ji Lingxuan gave Chen Liedao, "Chen Lie, would you be interested in sparring on the Duel Platform?" Chen Lie shook his head and said, "Next time. Seeing that Sumeru Illusion Realm Palace up ahead, I suddenly remembered that my Genius Hundred-Match Streak in the Sumeru Illusion Realm is not over yet. I need to go to the Sumeru Illusion Realm first."
"Genius Hundred-Match Streak?" Ji Lingxuan was taken aback and said, "I have completed all the progress in the Genius Hundred-Match Streak held by Starry Sky University in the Sumeru Illusion Realm. However, I don't know how the Ancient Star Exploration Voucher I was awarded will be delivered to me."
"You've achieved a 100-game winning streak?"
Ji Lingxuan hummed in agreement. "I entered Blue Star University earlier than you."
After exchanging a few words with Ji Lingxuan, Chen Lie went directly to the nearby Sumeru Illusion Realm Palace.
The Sumeru Illusion Realm Palace in the Thirteenth Campus is no smaller than the Sumeru Illusion Realm in the First Campus. It can accommodate a thousand people to move around in the Sumeru Illusion Realm at the same time. The several hundred people in the Thirteenth Campus directly occupy a Sumeru Stone.
Chen Lie entered the Virtual Illusion Realm Palace, found a Space Chamber, and followed the prompts to enter the Hibernation Pod.
An intelligent notification sounded Space Chamber: "Please relax your mind. Connecting to the Sumeru Stone, attempting to enter the Sumeru Illusion Realm."
"The Sumeru Stone connection is successful. The Sumeru Illusion Realm passage is open. You are about to enter the Sumeru Illusion Realm..."
In the blink of an eye, Chen Lie felt his consciousness leave his physical body and arrive in the Sumeru Illusion Realm.
"Successfully arrived in the Sumeru Illusion Realm. Please select the Sumeru Illusion Realm entry area..."
Upon seeing the virtual screen in front of him, Chen Lie didn't hesitate and directly selected the eastern part of the Canglan Star Domain.
"Successfully landed in the Canglan Star Domain East."
Suddenly, Chen Lie found himself in a vast, white space.
As soon as he arrived in the Canglan Star Domain East, Chen Lie began to match up for Virtual Duel Arena.
He is currently at the Organ Refining Stage Completion Organ Refining, and if he doesn't take advantage of this opportunity to complete the Hundred Consecutive Battles, things will become more difficult once he reaches the Blood Refining Stage.
Once you reach the Blood Refining Stage, if the Smart Brain of the Sumeru Illusion Realm matches you with an opponent at the second Ultimate Realm of the Blood-Qi Stage, Blood-Qi Transforming into Rainbow stage, you'll be in trouble.
"The Virtual Duel Arena is matching opponents..."
"Your Mental Power level and physical constitution have been detected to significantly exceed the Five Stars of the Eastern Region. The Smart Brain will conduct a deeper matching process..."
"Match complete. Opponent: Gu Tianyuan Glimmer Star (Organ Refining Stage / Second-Rank Divine Sense Master)."
"Entering Virtual Duel Space..."
"Glimmer Star?"
This is yet another planet located in the Central Canglan Star Domain.
The scene before Chen Lie's eyes spun, and he was instantly transported to Virtual Duel Space.
