Senior Chen belonged to Blue Star

After a while, Mu Xiyan finally looked away, glanced at the pretty girl beside her, and said indifferently, "Do you know her? Does she know you?"

"Of course I know him. I've even been to his house more than once."

"Um?"

Mu Xiyan looked at her suspiciously. "Aren't you from Lanjing? Do you have relatives in East River Province?"

"No—but my house is right next door to his."

"What?"

yuedu,

Mu Xiyan couldn't help but ask, "Xu Caiying? Are you serious?"

The pretty girl nodded.

As soon as Chen Lie and his entourage appeared on stage, a group of reporters swarmed around them.

"Mr. Chen Lie, I am a reporter from the Bluejing Times. May I ask you a few questions?"

"Mr. Chen Lie, I'm a reporter for the Blue Star University student newspaper. Could I have a few minutes of your time?"

"Mr. Chen Lie, I am from the Lanjing Youth Martial Arts Club ----"

Faced with a multitude of reporters vying for an interview, Chen Lie pointed to the reporter at the very front. "You, then!"

The reporter chosen by Chen Lie was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "It is an honor for Mr. Chen Lie to give me this opportunity. I am Li Yunen, a reporter from the Youth Martial Dao Channel of Blue Star Television Station."

The other reporters were all envious when they saw Li Yunen being chosen by Chen Lie.

"Okay, let's begin!" Chen Lie waved his hand.

"OK!"

Li Yunen handed the microphone forward, instructing the accompanying photographers to prepare for recording.

"Hello, Mr. Chen Lie. First of all, thank you to the ten outstanding geniuses of the five stars in the Eastern Star Region for their contributions, which helped us win this battle for the Four-Sided Star Domain."

With Chen Lie's cooperation, reporter Li Yunen conducted a 20-minute interview with Chen Lie, Chen Lie was very cooperative.

Meanwhile, the other nine people were also being interviewed by reporters.

After the interview, Chen Lie stepped off the stage and greeted the Blue Star University mentors present.

Suddenly, Chen Lie saw a man who looked to be around fifty or sixty years old. He immediately recognized him as Cheng Miangan, Ruan Liusu's maternal grandfather, who also served as the vice president of the Blue Star Martial Artist Association and the president of the Blue Cheng Miangan Lanjing Martial Artist Association.

Chen Lie immediately stepped forward and greeted, "Old Cheng!"

Cheng Miangan looked at Chen Lie with an undisguised admiration in his eyes. "Kid, you're pretty good. It seems my granddaughter has excellent taste."

I've heard about your contributions. You helped Blue Star become Permanent Councilor Star of the Eastern Star Region and now you've seized control of the Interstellar Allied Forces. You deserve all of that credit.

He also won first place in the Starry Sky University New Student Martial Arts Grand Competition, bringing unparalleled glory and substantial benefits to Blue Star. He should get along well with Liusu. After a few more years, when the golden age of martial arts is stable, he will hold a wedding and I will ask the Administrator to be your witness!

"Get along well with Liusu at Starry Sky University!"

Chen Lie nodded. "I understand!"

After giving Chen Lie some instructions, Cheng Miangan went to greet the other four guests.

At this moment, Chen Lie realized that he was surrounded by a group of people.

Most of these people are from the other four stars of the Five Stars of the Eastern Region.

"Is this person Chen Lie?"

"I heard that in the Four-Sided Star Domain Contest, he single-handedly defeated seven people from the Southern Star Region!"

"No way? There are only ten people in the two sides of the competition, right? He can fight seven people by himself?"

"He's the top freshman at Starry Sky University, he must be incredibly strong!"

Just then, Mu Xiyan, with her tea-brown hair tied in a bun, stepped forward.

Approaching Chen Lie, she nodded slightly. "Hello, Senior Chen, I'm Mu Xiyan, a freshman from the Class of 7366 at Blue Star University."

Chen Liedao, "Mu Xiyan? Is there something you need?"

Mu Xiyan said, "I am from Lanjing. Ever since I joined the Lanjing Youth Genius Group, I have never stopped hearing the name of Senior Chen."

I've always regretted that I was a year below you, Senior Chen, and therefore couldn't compete with you.

Until half a month ago, news came from Outer Stars that Senior Chen had won the championship in the Starry Sky University's New Student Martial Arts Grand Competition.

After receiving this news, even if I overestimated myself, I realized that Senior Chen's talent far surpassed mine.

Only then did he humbly step forward and ask Senior Chen for guidance!

"Instructions? You want to spar with me?"

Mu Xiyan simply nodded. "I have already undergone nine Blood Tempering. If you are willing to teach me, please suppress your strength to the same level as mine without using your True Qi."

"Even if I don't use any power, you can't withstand a single move from me."

If you want to have a friendly match, find an evenly matched opponent!

"Does Senior Chen look down on me?"

Mu Xiyan frowned. "Let me introduce myself again. I am Mu Xiyan, 17 years old, Lanjing Martial Leader in 7366."

Two weeks ago, the top three provinces of Lanjing, Beijing- Jingji, and Longhai held a martial arts competition. Even the combined champions of Jingji and Longhai couldn't withstand ten of my moves.

"Oh? Lanjing Martial Leader?"

Chen Lie glanced at Mu Xiyan. No wonder she dared to come forward so confidently; she was the new Lanjing Martial Leader.

"Fine, I'll grant your wish. I'll stand still, without using my True Qi or any strength above the Blood Refining Stage. If any of your attacks can get within ten meters of me within one minute, then you win," Chen Lie said calmly. "Aren't I right within ten meters of you right now? Senior Chen, you're underestimating me too much!"

Mu Xiyan said calmly, "I think we should change the question to whether you can defeat me within a hundred moves."

"Just as you said!" Chen Liedao.

"Get ready, I'm about to make my move!"

As soon as Mu Xiyan finished speaking, she mobilized her qi and blood, and with one palm she conjured up hundreds of palm shadows, striking towards Chen Lie.

"Thousand Illusions Sky-Shadow Palm!"

Before Mu Xiyan could even strike with her palm, a powerful surge of energy had already spread out.

Under the miraculous effect of the palm technique, more than a dozen afterimages of Mu Xiyan attacked Chen Lie from all directions.

Chen Lie remained motionless, without using any True Qi energy, only releasing a sliver of his blood and qi.

Chen Lie is now Second-Order Martial Artist. With each breakthrough in his True Qi martial arts, his blood and qi undergo a sublimation.

To enhance one's strength, if one were to test Blood Qi Value now, it would require at least hundreds of thousands of calories. However, once one reaches the True Qi Realm, the strength of one's Blood Qi Value can no longer be used as a standard for measuring strength.

Therefore, as soon as Chen Lie released a wisp of his qi and blood, the intense heat of the enhanced Pure Yang Precious Blood instantly radiated out.

"Boom boom boom!"

Centered on Chen Lie, a storm of qi and blood swept across a radius of several meters, with golden qi and blood filling all directions, accompanied by continuous crackling and popping sounds.

"Not good!"

Before Mu Xiyan could even land her palm, she felt an immense pressure, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on her head, and the numerous afterimages left by the palm technique instantly vanished.

Within the area enveloped by Chen Lie's qi and blood, Mu Xiyan felt as if she had entered a Gravity Chamber ten thousand times stronger than normal. Her legs trembled incessantly, and what was even more unbearable for her was the intense heat brought by the golden qi and blood storm, as if she were standing in the crater of a volcano.

Faced with such immense pressure, her blood and qi almost stopped circulating, and she was instantly pushed more than ten meters away.

Even when she was more than ten meters away, Mu Xiyan was still unable to completely escape the immense pressure and was still trembling all over.

"What's going on? The pressure isn't even that high anymore, so why am I still feeling this way?"

Chen Lie was simply standing still, yet Mu Xiyan felt as if an Primordial Ferocious Beast was baring its fangs and claws at her. From afar, she felt like an ant looking up at the sky.

This is an immense suppression at the level of life.

He actually reached such an indescribable level in the realm of Qi and blood?

The commotion drew a large crowd, mostly from the other four stars in the Eastern Star Region.

"What's going on? Is the candidate for the first Administrator of Blue Star in the Eastern Star Region instructing a junior?"

"Isn't that Mu Xiyan, the Lanjing Martial Leader? He's challenging Chen Lie?"

"What challenge? The difference between these two is like heaven and earth. How can you call it a challenge? At most, it's just guidance. Mu Xiyan is asking Chen Lie to give her some pointers!"

Mu Xiyan finally reached her limit, and she managed to say, "Senior Chen, I admit defeat!"

As Chen Lie withdrew his qi and blood, Mu Xiyan felt a sense of lightness in her body. She stepped forward and bowed slightly to Chen Lie.

"Senior Chen, I was so overconfident!"

Mu Xiyan sighed inwardly. The number one Blood-Qi Realm expert in the Eastern Star Region, a genius that comes along only once in a thousand years, was indeed beyond her comprehension.

Although she was the Lanjing Martial Leader in 7366, she was also the number one in the Qi Blood-Qi Realm among her peers on Blue Star.

However, in a longitudinal comparison, the other party is a genius of the Five Stars of the Eastern Region, appearing once every thousand years, while she is merely a Lanjing Martial Leader, which appears every year on Blue Star. In a thousand years, that's a thousand. The two are almost incomparable.

"You don't need to underestimate yourself. At your age, to have reached this level in martial arts, you still have great potential!" Chen Lie said.

Mu Xiyan pursed her lips and said, "Senior Chen, you wouldn't give this kind of encouragement to every junior, would you?"

"Of course not. Besides, I'm not trying to motivate you. You already have great potential. If you work hard in your martial arts training, you won't be much weaker than these people on stage next year."

Mu Xiyan smiled sweetly, "Then I will definitely live up to Senior Chen's expectations and strive to catch up with him this time next year."

Chen Lie nodded and hummed in agreement.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Chen. Goodbye!"

Mu Xiyan bowed slightly to Chen Lie, then turned and left.

Chen Lie only appeared at the celebration banquet for a little over half an hour before leaving the banquet hall from backstage.

Mu Xiyan returned to the Lanjing Youth Genius Group members, and immediately some Lanjing Genius Group members came forward to ask her questions.

"Captain Mu, did you go to ask Chen Lie for guidance?"

Mu Xiyan hummed in agreement.

"It's said that all those participating in the Four-Sided Star Domain Contest are Tier 4 Martial Artist. Asking to fight them would just be asking for trouble, wouldn't it?"

What do you know?

Mu Xiyan gave the speaker a cold glance, and the speaker immediately shut up.

At this moment, Xu Caiying asked, "Captain Mu, is Chen Lie really that powerful?"

"Of course he's amazing. He's the number one in the Eastern Star Region, a genius that appears once in a millennium. Do you think you have the right to question him?" Mu Xiyan retorted.

"I didn't question it!"

Xu Caiying was puzzled.

"It's a bit of a shame, why isn't this kind of genius from our Lanjing? Does East River Province even deserve to be the number one in the Eastern Star Region?" a member of the Lanjing Genius Group said.

Mu Xiyan reminded him, "Although Senior Chen is from East River Province, he belongs to the entire Blue Star. East River Province is just a place where Senior Chen has lived. Watch your words!"

The other members of the Lanjing Genius Group were all taken aback.

Among the members of the Lanjing Genius Group, there was a sweet-looking girl who remained silent; she was Yan Yueke.

At this moment, Yan Yueke listened to the voices around her praising Chen Lie and fell into deep thought.

Meanwhile, Chen Lie returned to the Blue Star Martial Artist Association.

In a training ground within the Lanjing Martial Artist Association, he began practicing the Five Elements Secret Arts, the Yi Wood Origin Purity Force.

Limited by his aptitude, Chen Lie could not truly comprehend the Martial Dao True Intent without mastering the Five Elements Secret Arts. It might take him half a year to succeed. The comprehension of the Martial Dao True Intent is related to the cultivation of the Ultimate Realm Divine Treasury, and no carelessness is allowed.

After returning from the Star Affairs Banquet Hall, Chen Lie practiced the Yi Wood Origin Purity Force " for several hours. In the afternoon, Lei Jinglong arrived at the Martial Artist Association's training ground.

"Chen Lie, are you practicing your martial arts?"

Upon seeing Lei Jinglong, Chen Lie immediately stopped practicing his martial arts. "Principal Lei, is something the matter?"

"It's nothing serious, just a small matter I'd like to ask for your opinion on," Lei Jinglong said.

"What's the big deal?"

Lei Jinglong said, "As you know, we just held a celebration banquet, and some of the best young martial artists from the other four stars in the Eastern Star Region were present."

At the celebration banquet just now, several young geniuses from the other four stars jointly requested that you come forward and give a talk on Outer Stars martial arts, and also select a few people to give some pointers.

The representatives from the other four stars who came to the banquet also came to me and Chairman Wang and made a request. We really didn't know how to refuse, so we declined for the time being.

"See if you can free up half a day tomorrow so I can give them an answer."

"Then let's take half a day, not too long!" Chen Liedao.

"Don't worry, we know you're busy with your martial arts training, it will only take up half a day of your time at most!" Lei Jinglong said.

Chen Lie nodded.

"By the way, Chen Lie, after you finish your practice, go to the Martial Artist Association. Chairman Wang wants to have a talk with you!"

"OK!"

Upon hearing Chen Lie's reply, Lei Jinglong turned and left.

After practicing the Yi Wood Origin Purity Force for a few more hours in the training ground, Chen Lie went to the President's Office of the Blue Star Martial Artist Association.

Inside the President's Office, Wang Shou saw Chen Lie and immediately said, "Chen Lie, you've arrived?"

"President Wang, is there something you need from me?"

Wang Shou said, "It's like this, you've achieved so much at Starry Sky University, but your home planet hasn't been able to help you much. I've come to you today to ask if there's anything you need?"

Whatever you want, we'll do everything we can to give it to you, even if it only helps you improve your martial arts a little bit.

Chen Lie thought for a moment and said, "Then how about this, give me some Spirit Nourishing Flower."

"The Spirit Nourishing Flower? Sure, how many do you want?" Wang Shou asked.

"I want as many as you can, the more the better!"

"The Blue Star Divine Sense Master Association should still have over 80,000 jin of Spirit Nourishing Flower. I'll have Principal Lei transfer another 20,000 jin from Blue Star University, giving you a total of 100,000 Spirit Nourishing Flower. How about that?"

"100,000 jin? That's acceptable!" Chen Lie nodded.

"Besides the Spirit Nourishing Flower, what else do you need in martial arts?"

"No need!"

Given the resources of Blue Star, Chen Lie doesn't have anything he needs in Blue Star arts, so Chen Lie doesn't mention it.

"In that case, I'll approve 3 million Star-Origin Galactic Coins for your expenses on martial arts at Starry Sky University. You're the top freshman at Starry Sky University, and I hope that with these resources, you can catch up with the top freshmen of previous years."

Three million Star-Origin Galactic Coins —this is almost a year's fiscal surplus for Blue Star; even Outer Stars, it would be a considerable fortune.

Chen Lie did not refuse and nodded, saying, "Thank you, Chairman Wang!"

"Don't thank me, we should be thanking you. You helped Blue Star seize the position of Permanent Councilor Star and take control of the Interstellar Allied Forces Command Authority."

The Martial Seal Medal you brought can raise the level of martial arts on Blue Star by ten years. I still think that the 3 million Star-Origin Galactic Coins are worth it.

I gave you too little!

However, Blue Star only has this much capacity; it cannot provide the same level of support for geniuses as the planets in the Ten-Star Alliance.

"That's enough!" Chen Lie asked.

Wang Shou nodded. "Principal Lei, I think I've already told you, right? I'll need to take up half a day of your time tomorrow to mentor the young geniuses of the five stars in the Eastern Star Region?"

"I said it!"

"Get ready, Principal Lei will be meeting with some Blue Star reporters for a special recording tomorrow."

You'll be at Starry Sky University for half a year, and you'll definitely need to go back to your hometown at least once. To avoid taking up too much of your time, after you finish your instruction tomorrow, I'll instruct the Martial Artist Association to prepare a miniature Star Boat for you, so you can get to East River Province in just half an hour."

Having not been home for half a year, Chen Lie was determined to visit his parents on this trip back to Blue Star, and it would be nice to have a Star Boat.

After speaking with Wang Shou, Chen Lie went to the Divine Sense Master Association with Wang Shou.

At the Divine Sense Master Association, Chen Lie obtained 80,000 Spirit Nourishing Flower, and then went to Blue Star University to obtain another 20,000 jin of Spirit Nourishing Flower.

Chen Lie's Storage Pouch suddenly contained 100,000 Spirit Nourishing Flower, which was quite sufficient for his Mental Power cultivation in the coming period.

After a night's rest, early the next morning, at the invitation of staff from Blue Star University, Chen Lie boarded an airship.

I went to Blue Star University.

The group went directly to the Thirteenth Campus Blue Star University and entered the inner square of the Thirteenth Campus.

Chen Lie was very familiar with this place; Blue Star University always held its assemblies here.

At this time, the plaza Thirteenth Campus was guarded by layers of guards. Looking around, there were at least a thousand people aged seventeen or eighteen sitting upright in the plaza, each with an expression of longing and hope on their face.

Among these people, the majority were dressed in ancient clothing and were all in the front row. These people were clearly from Red Flame Planet, Shuimang Star, and Jintian Star.

Photography and video recording equipment were set up in advance around the inner plaza.

There was a constant murmur of discussion in the square.

"This time, Chen Lie from Blue Star will be teaching us martial arts, and I heard he'll be randomly selecting a few people to mentor."

"The top freshman at Starry Sky University! He's the first person from over eighty planets across the entire star system. You absolutely must listen attentively later. If I could be selected to receive on-site guidance, that would be fantastic!"

"Chen Lie of Blue Star, the number one Blood-Qi Realm in the Eastern Star Region, must have profound insights into Blood-Qi Martial Way!"

Chen Lie then went backstage with staff from Blue Star University to meet Zheng Dong, the Super Genius Class teacher who was hosting the gathering.

After Yang greeted everyone, he prepared to go on stage.

At that moment, a broadcast rang out throughout the entire inner plaza.

"Hello, distinguished guests from Outer Stars and students of Blue Star University."

"His Excellency Chen Lie, candidate for Administrator of Blue Star, is about to take the stage to speak on martial arts. Please be quiet."
