Watching Bai Yi hover above the elevated platform, Liu Chenran's expression suddenly changed.
Foundation Establishment Realm!
The Daoist Son of the White Household had actually broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm?!
How was that possible? How long had he even been at Void Insight Dao Academy? For a prodigy like him, only a Higher Vehicle Dao Foundation with a fairly formidable foundation could be the right choice.
Could it be that the Daoist Son of the White Household had limited potential, and had simply chosen some Higher Vehicle Dao Foundation at random-or even broken through using a Middle Vehicle Dao Foundation?
Just as Liu Chenran's thoughts surged like storm-tossed waves, Guo Zhenlin, below, sensed Bai Yi's aura and froze completely. He couldn't help murmuring to himself.
"Impossible! This is impossible!"
"He was only at Qi Refining, Seventh Layer when he enrolled. How could he have forged a Dao Foundation and broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm in just two and a half years?"
Guo Zhenlin roared, unable for a moment to accept this vast chasm in talent.
In his eyes, he had only entered a Second-rate Academy because his parents were utterly incapable and couldn't support his talent.
If he had been born into an Aristocratic Clan or a corporate faction, he would surely have entered the Four Academies and Ten Palaces that everyone coveted.
But now, after struggling bitterly for sixty years, spending vast resources, and serving as a hired thug for Aristocratic Clans and corporate factions-scouring filthy gutters like a rat and doing all sorts of dirty work-he had finally condensed a Lower Vehicle Dao Foundation and broken through to Foundation Establishment.
After that, he had spent another forty-plus years breaking through to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage. Those were the glorious achievements that others saw.
