Chen Lie then appeared behind Chu Ling'er.

After leaving the Cultivation Room, he found that it was already dark.

At this moment, the girl who had greeted Chu Ling'er Cultivation Room suddenly arrived.

She saw the results on the Sea of Consciousness intensity monitoring device and suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"My God, 23.5 million points in the Sea of Consciousness! Ling'er, you've successfully constructed your Consciousness Sea World?"

As soon as the girl arrived, she walked to Chu Ling'er's side and put her arm around Chu Ling'er's shoulder.

"Why is it the Sea-Realm Celestial Palace? Isn't the Consciousness Sea World you've been cultivating the ' Azure Sea Dragon Palace '?"

Upon seeing the girl, Chu Ling'er immediately said, "It's you, Xiao Yun! I've recently had some new insights into my Mental Power, so I switched to a different method of cultivating my Consciousness Sea World, and that's how it ended up."

"You're amazing! Your cultivated Consciousness Sea World has three million more numerical points than the Azure Sea Dragon Palace. You'll definitely be able to cultivate into Azure Water Chi Dragon more easily in the future."

No wonder you missed class today; it turns out you've successfully cultivated your Consciousness Sea World.

Now that you've cultivated your Consciousness Sea World, would you like to try your luck at the Star Camphor Stele?

"The Star Camphor Stele..." Chu Ling'er murmured, "I will try my luck at the Star Camphor Stele!"

"Since you've managed to cultivate such Consciousness Sea World, there's a high probability you'll receive a reward from the Star Camphor Stele!"

Chu Ling'er shook her head. "It's very difficult to obtain the reward from the Star Camphor Stele."

"Of course it's difficult for ordinary people, but you've cultivated Consciousness Sea World with a numerical score of 23 million. Even in terms of talent, you have a great chance, right?"

Chu Ling'er knew her own situation best; her Consciousness Sea World was constructed with the help of others, not entirely due to her own talent.

At this moment, Chen Lie stepped forward and said, "It's getting late, come with me and take me home!"

Chu Ling'er glanced at the time and quickly said, "Oh dear, it's already past 8 p. m. After 8 p. m., all campuses are closed off. Under normal circumstances, students are not allowed to enter or leave at this time, let alone in your situation."

Or... why don't you go back tomorrow?

"Starry Sky University has such a rule?"

"It's always been there," Chu Ling'er blinked.

The girl next to her fell into deep thought. As a student at Starry Sky University, she naturally knew that Chu Ling'er was talking nonsense, but why would Chu Ling'er lie?

Also, isn't this person a student at Starry Sky University? How did they end up at Starry Sky University?

They're all classmates; no matter what Chu Ling'er's motives are, she won't expose her.

Seeing Chen Lie's gaze fall upon her, Chu Ling'er quickly added, "Anyway, your matter... will have to wait until the day after tomorrow. I promise I'll definitely send you back tomorrow."

Besides, the environment there isn't good; there's nowhere to rest. You can rest in my Dormitory tonight!

"Holy crap, no way?"

The girl next to Chu Ling'er was immediately startled. So Chu Ling'er had been lying, preventing the other person from leaving, and that was her real purpose?

"You're letting him stay in your Dormitory tonight? Ling'er, what's your relationship with him?"

Chu Ling'er explained, "What are you thinking? What I mean is, I'll give up my Dormitory tonight and stay in Dormitory for the night."

"Oh, I see."

The girl nodded, but the fact that she was willing to lend out her Dormitory meant their relationship was quite close.

"Who is this? You haven't introduced her to me yet," the girl said.

Chu Ling'er thought for a moment and said, "He is the son of one of my elder relatives, so he is like my cousin."

"The elder's son, no wonder..."

"You've been cultivating all day and haven't eaten yet. Come with me to the restaurant for a meal!"

Chu Ling'er invited Chen Lie to the Starry Sky University cafeteria.

When Chu Ling'er arrived at the restaurant, it was already closed. She managed to get some simple food, and after eating, she went to her Dormitory.

On the way, Chu Ling'er introduced the girl traveling with Chen Lie to him; her name was Li Yunyun.

Soon, Chen Lie followed Chu Ling'er to the Dormitory of Starry Sky University.

Chu Ling'er led Chen Lie into her Dormitory and said, "This is my Dormitory. You can stay here for the night. I'll be staying at a classmate's Dormitory tonight, and I'll definitely take you back tomorrow."

Chen Lie glanced at the Dormitory environment; it was decorated in a very pink and cozy style, like a young girl's home.

"You can be honest with me, why did you ask me to stay another night?" Chen Lie suddenly said.

"You noticed?"

Chu Ling'er was somewhat surprised. After calming her tone, she replied, "Actually, there's something else I need your help with."

In exchange, I can give you another chance to use the Blood Origin Crystal.

Chen Lie said directly, "I only need the Blood Origin Crystal once. I'll ask for a different reward."

"So what do you want?"

"I want 10,000 catties of Spirit Nourishing Flower, or Blood-Tempering Spirit Liquid for more than Twelfth Blood Tempering."

Upon hearing Chen Lie's request, Chu Ling'er exclaimed in surprise, "Are you even from a barren planet?"

How can you be so exaggerated? Ten thousand catties of Spirit Nourishing Flower costs one million Star-Origin Galactic Coins.

If it's something I can use for cultivation, my family should be able to raise the money for me if I discuss it with them. If I don't need it, I won't ask for things randomly, and even my father wouldn't listen to me.

"And the same goes for the Spirit Liquid used for Twelfth Blood Tempering. How could I possibly get it for you?"

"Then let's use the Spirit Liquid for eleven Blood Tempering!"

Chu Ling'er thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Alright, as long as you help me, I'll give you the Spirit Liquid for eleven Blood Tempering as payment. I agree!"

"Then tell me how you need my help."

"That's right. I'm a native of Canglong Star. In order to support the natives of Canglong Star, Starry Sky University has set up a Star Camphor Stele for each department, whether it's Martial Way Department, Sword Dao Department, or Mental Power Department."

I want you to help me pass the Star Camphor Stele exam for the Mental Power Department so I can get the Star Camphor Stele reward.

"What is the Star Camphor Stele? What's on the exam?" Chen Lie asked.

"The Star Camphor Stele is said to have been set up by a powerful Divine Sense Master from Canglong Star to test a person's Mental Power, but this claim is unreliable."

Another theory is that our Canglong Star discovered an Ancient Star Ruins, and within the ruin, we found a treasure left over from ancient times, but this treasure was sealed by a spiritual scroll.

The Divine Sense Master of Canglong Star found it difficult to break the seal on this scroll, so they broke down the Mental Restriction and Spirit Lock on the scroll into hundreds of millions of levels, inscribed them in numerous Star Camphor Stele, and distributed them across various continents of Canglan Star, allowing Divine Sense Master from the entire planet to work together to solve the problem, pooling their wisdom, and even offering rewards for solving it.

"If we can crack even one percent of the Star Camphor Stele, we can receive a generous reward set by Canglong Star, but only those from Canglong Star can crack it."

"Okay, I understand. I'll go try it with you tomorrow!" Chen Lie nodded.

"Okay, you get some rest tonight. I'm going to sleep in my classmate's Dormitory!"

After Chu Ling'er finished speaking, she left the Dormitory.

Chen Lie went to the sink, unwrapped the gauze from his right hand, and examined the injury on his palm.

The situation was indeed not good; his finger bones were bruised and raw. However, after using the Flesh-Regenerating Liquid, Chen Lie could feel that he was recovering very quickly.

After reading it, Chen Lie went to his bedroom. That night, he didn't cultivate anymore, but instead got a good rest.

On the other side, as soon as Chu Ling'er stepped out of the Dormitory, several girls of similar age surrounded her.

"Ling'er, I heard from Xiao Yun that you brought a boy back to your Dormitory?"

"You're really going too far! You've only been at Starry Sky University for a short time, and you're already letting yourself go like this? When I get back to the Cold Continent and see your grandfather, I'll definitely tell him all about you!"

"Why bother looking for Ling'er's grandfather? Ling'er's aunt works at Starry Sky University. If her aunt finds out about this, she'll definitely be here within ten minutes!"

Chu Ling'er sighed and asked, "How did you know I brought people back to the Dormitory?"

"How else could we know? Yunyun told us, of course. We're all from Cold Province, would she hide it from us?"

Chu Ling'er gritted her teeth. "That big mouth!"

"Ling'er, what's wrong with you? As far as I know, Yang Guangyu in our class has always had a crush on you. If he finds out, his heart will probably break!"

"Don't spread rumors. That was one of my sworn brothers who stayed overnight. I'm also going to use the Dormitory outside today," Chu Ling'er explained.

"Oh? Is that so?"

Chu Ling'er explained at length before dispelling the doubts of her classmates.

The next morning, Chen Lie woke up from his sleep, washed up in Chu Ling'er's Dormitory, and then sat on the sofa in the lobby to wait for Chu Ling'er.

This should be the Dormitory. It's not appropriate for him to go out so abruptly; it would be difficult to explain if he were mistaken for someone who had sneaked in.

Not long after, Chu Ling'er knocked on the door and entered the Dormitory.

Seeing Chen Lie sitting on the sofa, he immediately asked, "Um... are you ready?"

"Alright, let's go!"

Chen Lie stood up and walked out the door.

Chu Ling'er led the way out of the Dormitory Building.

Outside the Dormitory Building, several girls waiting for Chu Ling'er were stunned.

"You... aren't you that country bumpkin from that barren planet yesterday?"

Ling'er, why did you bring him here?

"Ling'er, could this be the elder brother you were talking about?"

Chu Ling'er said seriously, "Everyone, please don't be so rude."

This is indeed my elder brother; I just didn't recognize him yesterday.

The girls were filled with doubt and surprise. Wasn't this the person from the barren planet they met at Tianyi Campus yesterday? How did he suddenly become Chu Ling'er's older brother?

Chu Ling'er's father is the commander of the Interstellar Allied Forces, truly her elder brother. His status must be quite high; surely he shouldn't be someone from a barren planet?

"These are my classmates, Tian Qiuqiu and Dong Qinqin."

Chen Lie knew he probably wouldn't have anything to do with these two, so he said, "Let's go, let's get down to business."

"Okay!"

With a nod, Chu Ling'er summoned a public airship.

Just as they were about to board the airship, Tian Qiuqiu and Dong Qinqin suddenly asked, "Ling'er, where are you?"

"Central Campus," Chu Ling'er replied.

"You also know what's going to happen at the Central Campus today?"

"What's up?"

"They seem to be visitors from Blood God Planet, who want to exchange martial arts skills and spar with the top ten outstanding students of Starry Sky University. Perhaps Wenren will also show up."

"Senior Wenren?"

Chu Ling'er was taken aback. Senior Wenren was Wenren Mubian, a famous martial arts genius in the Canglong Star Cold Continent. He was a dual student of martial arts and mental power, with outstanding mental power. His consciousness was the eleventh on the Canglan Star Region's Heaven-level Consciousness Ranking, known as the 'Devouring Heaven Glutton'.

She had witnessed Wenren Mubian's prowess at the Cold Continent Martial Arts Competition when she was nine years old, and she could not forget it even after several years.

"Since we're all going to the Central Campus, let's take the same airship!"

Tian Qiuqiu and Dong Qinqin were very unceremonious and squeezed into the airship together.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Lie and Chu Ling'er also boarded the airship.

The airship took off quickly, and in about twenty minutes, it arrived at the Central Campus of Starry Sky University.

After disembarking from the airship, Tian Qiuqiu and Dong Qinqin headed directly towards the Martial Arts Arena in the Central Campus.

Seeing her friend Chu Ling'er not moving, Tian Qiuqiu asked, "Ling'er, aren't you going to watch the match between Starry Sky University and Blood God Planet?"

"No! I won't go. I'm now at the peak of my Apprentice Divine Sense Master, and I'm planning to try my luck at the Star Camphor Stele."

"When can't we go to the Star Camphor Stele? The sparring match on Blood God Planet, if we miss it this time, we might not have another chance."

Besides, Senior Wenren might also show up. Are you sure you don't want to go and check it out?"

Chu Ling'er hesitated upon hearing this. She glanced at Chen Lie, but ultimately shook her head and refused, "I'd better go to the Star Camphor Stele first!"

She promised to take Chen Lie back today, so she must pass the Star Camphor Stele test today.

"Alright then, the Star Camphor Stele won't waste much time. You can come back and take a look after you're done; maybe the sparring isn't over yet."

"Okay, I understand. You can go ahead."

After bidding farewell to Tian Qiuqiu and Dong Qinqin, Chu Ling'er went to the Star Camphor Stele with Chen Lie.

The Starry Sky Battleground was vast and boundless. Chen Lie and Chu Ling'er walked past a circle of walls before arriving at a forest of steles.

At this moment, many young students are attempting to decipher the inscriptions at the Stele Forest.

Chu Ling'er explained, "This is the Star Camphor Stele. There are ten thousand Star Camphor Stele Star Camphor Stele, and each one is different. Each Star Camphor Stele contains one hundred Mental Power challenges."

If you can decipher the ten Star Camphor Stele, you will receive the reward set by Canglong Star.

The Star Camphor Stele comes in two colors: red and blue.

The red Star Camphor Stele has already been cracked and cannot be cracked again. To complete one percent of the Star Camphor Stele Star Camphor Stele Steles must be cracked.

Chen Lie nodded. He glanced at the Star Camphor Stele in front of him and saw that it was almost half blue and half red, meaning that five thousand of the ten thousand Star Camphor Stele had already been deciphered.

"You can explore the Mental Power barriers within the Star Camphor Stele, then tell me the secret to breaking them, and I'll crack them."

"I see!"

Chen Lie nodded, walked up, and began to explore the structure of the Star Camphor Stele with his divine sense.

Sure enough, he saw the Mental Power barrier left behind by a top-level Divine Sense Master inside the Star Camphor Stele.

There are many Star Camphor Stele, each with its own unique challenges.
