Chen Lie stood up to feel the power of the Blood Refining Stage.

Once you reach the Blood Refining Stage, the influence of sheer physical strength on your overall power becomes very low.

Once you leave the Blood-Qi Stage, strength is the sole measure of power. As your cultivation level increases, the influence of strength on combat power decreases. By the current Blood Refining Stage, strength probably accounts for less than one-fifth of a person's overall strength.

"The higher-ups at Blue Star University should have heard about my cultivation of Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit Being and the suppression I received from the Martial Artist Association, right? Why haven't they reacted at all?"

Blood Refining Stage, spiritual items for cultivating Pure Yang Precious Blood can only be obtained from Outer Stars. Without the help of Blue Star, it would be difficult for Chen Lie to obtain spiritual items of that level on his own.

"Could it be... that they consider my First Star God, Jing Wood Tapir, to be a flawed Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit, lacking sufficient weight, and therefore not paying enough attention?" Chen Lie wondered. The higher-ups at Blue Star University couldn't possibly have missed him, yet they remained silent; it was indeed possible that he wasn't significant enough. "If that's the case, it's rather difficult. Jing Wood Tapir's Star God ability amplifies Mental Power attacks, making his spirit as sharp as a sword."

This ability is far stronger than the vague and unrealistic abilities of those Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit described in the Consciousness Spirit Illustrated Handbook, but it only manifests after battle and cannot be explained to outsiders."

"Let's wait two more days. If we still haven't heard from the higher-ups at Blue Star University, we'll have to unleash ten times our Strength Value."

Chen Lie had studied the levels of martial arts geniuses in the Canglan Star Domain. Martial Artist with more than ten times the Strength Value were roughly equivalent to Divine Sense Master had cultivated a Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit.

When Chen Lie walked out of the Cultivation Room, it was already noon.

So he went to the cafeteria for a meal.

As Chen Lie left the restaurant, he received another communication.

Chen Lie picked up the Communicator and answered the call directly.

"Are you Chen Lie, junior? I'm Xue Caini, the teaching assistant for the First Genius Class."

"Oh, Assistant Professor Xue, is there something you need?" Chen Lie asked.

"Something's up, great news! Are you free right now? Could you come to the general office at the Thirteenth Campus?"

Teacher Tan, as well as Zheng Dongyang and Yu Yuan from the Super Genius Class, were all there.

"Okay, I'll be right there!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you here!"

After Chen Lie finished speaking, he hung up the phone and went to the general office of the Thirteenth Campus.

Upon arriving at the general office, Chen Lie ran into an acquaintance, Ruan Liusu.

Ruan Liusu also saw Chen Lie, and her face immediately lit up with surprise. A bright smile appeared on her little face as she waved her hand.

"Chen Lie!"

Chen Lie saw Ruan Liusu, walked over and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Yes, I've reached the Organ Refining Stage Completion, meeting the standards for External Student in the Super Genius Class. I'm here to report for duty today," Ruan Liusu said. "You've reached the Organ Refining Stage Completion?"

Chen Lie glanced at Ruan Liusu Ruan Liusu and noticed some flaws in her cultivation Organ Refining Stage. He then reminded her, "Your cultivation of your heart organ is incomplete. You need to undergo a second cultivation before Blood Refining."

"The heart?"

Ruan Liusu was taken aback.

"Every time you circulate your Qi and blood, you should notice that your heart is having difficulty supplying Qi and blood, right?"

Ruan Liusu for a moment. "It seems there is such a problem..."

"That's it. Take my advice. Use a first-tier fire-attribute Martial Dao Rare Treasure with relatively mild medicinal effects to re-cultivate your heart organ. This way, you can achieve twice the results with half the effort in your Blood Refining Stage cultivation," Chen Lie said.

"Okay, then!" Ruan Liusu nodded. "We're here to report for duty. What brings you here?"

"Us?"

Chen Lie then looked back.

At this moment, Ruan Liusu's friend, Zhao Ziyan, walked up with a blank expression.

"I'm a grown man, did you really not see me, or are you pretending not to see me? Or are you only focused on someone and can't see anyone else?"

Ruan Liusu felt ashamed and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Then she added, "Ziyan, like me, is also here to register at the Thirteenth Campus."

Chen Lie ignored Zhao Ziyan and said, "I was sent here by the instructor of the Genius Class. They said there's good news."

"What good news is it?"

It's not clear yet.

Ruan Liusu said "Oh," and then said to Chen Lie, "Um... I asked Grandpa again yesterday."

He has cut off the resources and support for that Huo Hong as scheduled, and has also issued a public reprimand to him in the Jingji Province.

However, Grandpa said that Principal Lei of Blue Star University is still out and hasn't returned, so your matter hasn't been addressed yet.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Chen Lie waved his hand, it seemed that Ruan Liusu was still paying attention to his affairs.

At this moment, Xue Caini, a cultivator from the First Genius Class, suddenly walked out of the main office lobby.

Upon seeing Chen Lie, she immediately said, "Junior Brother Chen Lie, why don't you come in?"

Chen Lie nodded to Xue Caini and said, "We just arrived, we haven't had time yet."

"Shall we go in with your senior now? The professors are waiting for you."

Chen Lie nodded and said to Ruan Liusu, "I'm going in."

"Good!"

Ruan Liusu nodded in agreement.

Soon, Chen Lie followed Xue Caini to a hair salon.

Inside the office, several people were talking.

As soon as Xue Caini entered, she said, "Mentors, Chen Lie has arrived!"

Several people in the office got up and gathered around.

"You're Chen Lie?"

A short-haired man who looked to be under forty years old approached Chen Lie.

"Junior, this is Zheng Dongyang, the tutor of the Super Genius Class," Xue Caini introduced from the side.

Chen Lie called out, "Professor Zheng."

The three people in front of them, apart from Zheng Dongyang who was in charge, were Tan Qihui, the mentor of the First Genius Class, Yu Yuan, the External Student the Super Genius Class. All three were Extreme Realm Grandmaster, with Zheng Dongyang being the strongest, only one step away from the ninth-order Yuan Gang Alternation realm.

However, this seemingly small step can sometimes prevent people from making any progress for years.

"Chen Lie, do you really possess eight times the Strength Value?" Zheng Dongyang asked.

"If Instructor Zheng doesn't believe me, I can test him on the spot," Chen Liedao.

Zheng Dongyang waved his hands repeatedly. "It's not that I don't believe it, I just want to confirm it."

"I do indeed have eight times the Strength Value," Chen Lie said.

"I'm curious, how did you, a person from a poor province, with neither precious resources to enhance the purity of your qi and blood nor any exclusive martial arts techniques, manage to possess eight times the Strength Value in less than two months after entering Starry Sky University?" Zheng Dongyang asked.

At this moment, Tan Qihui, who was behind, suddenly coughed lightly and said, "Chen Lie, don't misunderstand. Professor Zheng didn't mean to question you. He asked purely out of curiosity."

"I didn't misunderstand!"

After Chen Lie finished speaking, he looked at Zheng Dongyang and replied, "The reason I can have such purity of qi and blood in this impoverished province is because I met a remarkable person about ten years ago, when I was about seven or eight years old, and he instructed me in Martial Arts Knowledge for two days."

"An extraordinary person? What kind of extraordinary person?" Zheng Dongyang asked.

Chen Lie said calmly, "I don't know. The only thing I know is that this extraordinary person has an attendant who calls him the ' Star Seeker '."

"What did you say? Star Seeker?"

Chen Lie's words shocked not only Zheng Dongyang, but also Tan Qihui and Yu Yuan.

Star Seeker?

Could he be the Star-Seeking Envoy from the Canglan Star Domain?

What is the concept of Star Seeker?

He is the sole ruler of the entire Canglan Star Domain, controlling the fate of millions of living beings.

The sky that all living beings on the 86 planets of the Canglan Star Domain can see when they look up.

Ten years ago, a single casual remark from the Star Seeker turned the once relatively harmonious relationship between Blue Star and Wood Source Planet into a life-or-death feud. It is said that the Star Seeker's skills are unparalleled, and his martial arts prowess is beyond the comprehension of gods and demons.

According to the records of Blue Star, Star Seeker's word can determine the rise and fall of a planet; they are truly powerful figures wielding divine authority and speaking with the will of Heaven. How could such a person appear on a remote planet in the Canglan Star Domain and instruct a child in martial arts for two days?

"Chen Lie, are you sure the person who guided you is the Star Seeker?"

"You attended your first class at Blue Star University, so you should understand what Star Seeker is." Zheng Dongyang asked again solemnly.

"Sure."

Chen Lie nodded expressionlessly.

He has now come into the sights of the highest levels of the Blue Star. All his past information, even his age when he learned to walk, when he learned to talk, and when he stopped wetting the bed, will be compiled into a book and presented to the Blue Star's high-ranking officials for their review.

He simply couldn't explain why an ordinary young man from a barren province would suddenly rise to prominence in less than a year, surpassing many Blue Star on Earth in martial arts, possessing eight times the Strength Value, and cultivating to the Heaven-Grade Consciousness Spirit.

Therefore, attributing everything to the elusive Star Seeker the Canglan Star Domain is the best excuse.

If you don't believe him, then go and ask the Star Seeker of the Canglan Star Domain, and Star Seeker directly.

Even if Tenth-Order Heavenly Human Grandmaster Martial Artist were to appear on Blue Star, meeting a Star Seeker would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Moreover, as far as Chen Lie knew, the Star Seeker of the Canglan Star Domain had been replaced ten years ago.

The previous Star Seeker has already returned to the Central Galactic Empire to report for duty. The current Star Seeker is the new Star Seeker, which means that Chen Lie's words are now unverifiable.

Zheng Dongyang, Yu Yuan, and Tan Qihui exchanged glances, but their hearts were far from calm as they appeared.

No one would believe it if I told them I had been instructed in martial arts by the Star Seeker of the Canglan Star Domain for two days.

And a figure as important Star Seeker has no reason to waste two days instructing a complete stranger.

"Chen Lie, do you have any evidence to support your claims?"

Zheng Dongyang asked again.

"No." Chen Lie shook his head decisively. "Let alone evidence, if it weren't for that extraordinary person's attendants calling him ' Star Seeker Star Seeker ' a few times, I wouldn't even know what that title meant."

Seeing that Chen Lie seemed completely unaware, Zheng Dongyang decided not to ask Chen Lie for more details.

However, the fact that I received guidance from the Star Seeker for two days absolutely must be reported.

This is no small matter. If we could establish a connection with the Star Seeker, would competing with Wood Source Planet even be a problem?

"Chen Lie, I called you here today to tell you some good news."

With the special approval of Vice Principal Qin Zhenwei, you have been directly promoted from External Student in the Super Genius Class to a full-fledged Super Genius Class student.

Chen Lie nodded. "Yes, is there anything else?"

"This..."

Zheng Dongxu said, "Chen Lie, Blue Star University knows that you may have suffered some injustices in some aspects."

"Don't worry, President Lei Jinglong of Blue Star University is currently on a mission to Outer Stars and hasn't returned yet. Once Principal Lei returns, he will surely stand up for you." "I understand."

Chen Lie remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he began to calculate.

Simply making decisions without sincerity would be far from genuine.

What he needs is a complete spiritual object for cultivating Pure Yang Precious Blood, not some kind of authority.

Yu Yuan said, "Don't worry, Chen Lie. You suffered such unfair treatment when you entered Blue Star University. The authorities will definitely make it up to you."

These are matters that even Principal Qin Zhenwei cannot decide on his own; we can only wait for Principal Lei to return from Outer Stars."

Chen Lie nodded calmly.

"Junior Chen Lie, shall I help you with the procedures for joining the Super Genius Class?"

At this moment, Xue Caini spoke.

"Good!"

After bidding farewell to Zheng Dongyang and the other two, Chen Lie immediately left the office with Xue Caini.

After Chen Lie left, the three Extreme Realm Grandmaster, Zheng Dongyang, Yu Yuan, Tan Qihui, exchanged glances.

Zheng Dongyang spoke first, "Professor Yu, Professor Tan, tell me, is what Chen Lie said just now true?"

Yu Yuan said, "It sounds like a fantasy, but... it's not impossible."

Look at Chen Lie's information from childhood to adulthood. Since he applied for the Martial Arts Department, his three years of high school were unremarkable, and his Blood Qi Value never even broke 1.

But in the last six months of his senior year, he first joined the Elite Class, then won first place in the school's martial arts competition, dominated the East River Province Genius Training Camp, and won the Dongchuan Martial Arts All-Member Martial Competition in the East River Provincial Genius Group's East River Martial Champion competition.

Even the Three Rivers Martial Top Scholar Champion," which had always belonged to Yunchuan Province and was the best in the martial arts competition among the Three-Provinces Martial Tournament, was taken away by him.

In the Northwest Military Training, he even won the Northwest General Star title, which had always been reserved for the top ten Martial Leader in the province.

This transformation occurred in just six months, which is exceptionally unreasonable.

I just observed Chen Lie's martial arts; he has most likely already reached the Blood Refining Stage.

In just over half a year, from having Blood Qi Value below 1 to reaching the Blood Refining Stage, I think on Blue Star, without an extraordinary encounter, such an absurd situation would be impossible, right?

"Could this person have been hiding their strength all along?" Zheng Dongyang asked.

Yu Yuan countered, "Then what about the motive?"

Zheng Dongyang fell silent.

There was indeed no motive, because under Blue Star's talent cultivation system, the stronger one's talent, the more martial arts resources one could enjoy. Under this system, no one would be foolish enough to hide their power.

Could it be... that he really was guided by the Star Seeker?

"Let's stop speculating and just report it to the higher-ups so they can make a judgment," Tan Qihui said.

Zheng Dongyang and Yu Yuan both nodded.

On the other side, Chen Lie followed Xue Caini out of the office. Xue Caini immediately showed the vice principal's approval, instructing the staff of the Thirteenth Campus's general office to process Chen Lie's application to join the Super Genius Class.
