Yu Province had nine super universities in total. Anyone who received an early admission offer from them could, at the very least, reach the Grandmaster Mirror.
Yet for Qi Yuan, who possessed the Sharingan, breaking through to the Grandmaster Mirror would theoretically be extremely difficult!
For an ordinary university, results like his would have been more than enough.
But these schools selected the best of the best, so they soon ruled Qi Yuan out.
The representatives of these super universities all felt it was a great pity.
They stopped looking at Qi Yuan's information, skipping straight past him to examine the other students.
Only the representative from Mowu University wore a grave expression. Then he pushed his chair back and walked out.
"Oh, it's you, Zhou. Didn't you go to Fifth Town to recruit students? Why are you calling me?"
"Vice Principal Yun, I've received some information about a student, but I can't decide whether we should admit him!"
The person on the other end gave an audible chuckle. "Do you need to ask me about something this trivial?"
"You'll understand once you take a look!"
Mowu City, Mowu University.
Yun Ce frowned in puzzlement. What was going on with Zhou?
Did admitting a single student really require consulting him?
His phone chimed, and he saw the information the Mowu University representative had sent him.
When he saw the word "Sharingan," Yun Ce's pupils contracted.
"Three-Tomoe Sharingan? Eight Gates? And he's already trained to the fourth gate?"
"His name is Qi Yuan? Isn't that the name the Xu Family mentioned when they approached us to trade for Lightning Release Nintaijutsu?"
A few days earlier, Grandmaster Xu Ning of the Xu Family had offered a generous price in exchange for the Yun Family's Lightning Release Nintaijutsu.
This had put the Yun Family in a difficult position. Lightning Release Nintaijutsu was the very foundation of their standing.
How could they give it to the Xu Family?
Only after Xu Ning explained had they learned that it would not be given to the Xu Family.
"So this is the young fellow who entered the Eighth Layer of the Inheritance Tower?"
"He also seems to have found a way to suppress the Sharingan's side effects!"
"Excellent. My older brother should be very interested in this news!"
Abandoning the work at hand, he hurried toward the principal's office.
At that moment, a middle-aged man who bore some resemblance to him was sitting upright inside the office.
The most striking thing about this middle-aged man was his left eye, which was completely covered in bandages. His body, however, was extremely withered, and his skin was unnaturally pale.
Yet beneath this battered body lay an extreme sense of danger.
Hearing the noise, the man in the room immediately frowned.
"Brother, I've received some news."
Before Yun Ce could finish, the middle-aged man interrupted him.
"Get out. Knock before coming in!"
Somewhat helplessly, Yun Ce knocked and walked in again.
"Principal, sir, I have something to report!"
The middle-aged man continued writing and drawing at his desk, paying Yun Ce no attention.
Yun Ce waited patiently.
Meanwhile, he studied the bandages over his older brother's left eye and his pale complexion.
A complicated expression appeared on his face.
Only after a long while did the middle-aged man raise his head. "What is it?"
Yun Ce showed him Qi Yuan's information.
The man took it and scanned it carefully, a gleam appearing in his sole remaining right eye!
"Using Eight Gates of Limitless to suppress the Sharingan's curse?"
"I tried that myself back then. Unfortunately, I had no talent for practicing Eight Gates of Limitless!"
"I could only settle for Lightning Release Nintaijutsu instead!"
"But now..."
At this point, Yun Ce could not help asking, "Brother, stop unleashing that power. You'll die if you keep doing it!"
His older brother, Yunlong, was the principal of Mowu University!
The head of Mowu's Yun Family!
He was also Grandmaster Yunlong, who stood at the top of the Great Grandmaster Rankings!
He had received the inheritance of the Level Seven King, Kakashi Hatake, and was now a Level 6 Grandmaster, only a hair's breadth from the King Realm.
As everyone knew, those with Kakashi's inheritance would grow a Three-Tomoe Sharingan upon reaching the Level 6 Grandmaster!
Thus, those who received Kakashi's inheritance often replaced their left eye at this realm. Only then could they ensure they would not be cursed by the Sharingan!
His older brother, however, was an exception. Ever since becoming a Level 6 Grandmaster over twenty years ago, his left eye had remained a Sharingan!
Precisely because of this, Yunlong, whose talent had originally rivaled Yu Wang's, had failed to break through to the King Realm in over twenty years.
He also suffered the Sharingan's torment every moment.
Had his older brother's constitution not been exceptionally tough, he probably could not even have maintained the strength of a Level 6 Grandmaster!
Over those twenty years, many had mocked Yunlong for his inflexibility!
He could clearly break through to Level Seven King simply by removing his Sharingan!
Yet eight years ago, all those doubts had turned into utter shock!
The Yun Family had originally been a King Family Clan in Mingcheng City, Yu Province, but had relocated to Mowu City eight years ago.
Eight years ago, the Level Seven King Beast in the S-Rank Secret Realm guarded by the Yun Family of Mingcheng City had suddenly broken through to a higher realm. The Yun Family's King had been defeated and killed on the spot!
More than half of the entire Yun King Family Clan had been wiped out.
Just as the Yun Family fell into despair, an entirely new power awakened in Yunlong's left eye!
It was a terrifying power that surpassed the Three-Tomoe Sharingan!
With the help of Sealing Jutsu, Yunlong had used his strength as a Level 6 Grandmaster to bridge several levels and tear that high-level King Beast apart!
It was one of the rare instances in human history of someone killing a King Beast above their level!
Moreover, over those eight years, Yunlong had acted four times in total. Each time, a King Beast had fallen!
Yunlong looked at his younger brother, then covered his left eye and slowly said, "You don't understand. This Mangekyō Sharingan of mine is an extremely special existence, even among the Foreign Races."
"If I can fully master this power, I won't just break through to Level Seven King. I'll immediately become one of the very strongest!"
"Unfortunately, right now..."
Yunlong knew his limits very well. If he used that power once more, he might very well die outright!
He looked at the information in his hand. "Our Mowu University will take this Qi Yuan!"
Yun Ce suddenly recalled how his older brother had looked when he activated his Mangekyō Sharingan back then.
Even now, he could still feel how terrifying, evil, and powerful that force had been!
As well as a faint trace of greed!
"Oh, right. Ce, how is your cultivation going?"
"Very few people receive Hiruko's King's Legacy, and I rarely hear of anyone breaking through to Level Seven King through him."
Yun Ce shook his head awkwardly. "Perhaps I simply lack talent. I've been stuck in the Great Grandmaster Realm for many years, too."
Yun Ce turned around, but his heart was filled with anguish.
The inheritance he had received belonged to the Level Seven King Hiruko. This King's Legacy had neither curses nor pleasant surprises. It seemed utterly unremarkable.
The Chimera Technique! By fusing with other people's bodies, I can acquire their powers, even their Kekkei Genkai!
This is an absolutely evil technique. I simply cannot, and dare not, reveal it to anyone.
No wonder everyone who received Hiruko's inheritance in the past either became a Rogue Ninja or remained stuck in the Great Grandmaster Realm!
If anyone discovered something like this, he would naturally become the entire world's common enemy!
But a shadow crept into Yun Ce's heart.
Why couldn't he be as powerful as his older brother?
More precisely, why couldn't he wield that mesmerizing visual jutsu power?
