Upon hearing this, Li Jing's heart stirred, based on the information provided by the staff who compiled statistics on the locations of the various geniuses after the Genius Battle concluded.

They will arrange the spaceship's departure time and route based on the distance of the location from the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters.

Ultimately, the 1,000 geniuses will arrive at the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters three years later.

He then entered the Chaos City of the Initial Universe for a 30-year period of comprehension.

Judging from the teacher's words, he was to be sent to the Chaos City of the Initial Universe right now.

After a couple of rounds, he was three years ahead of other geniuses of the same generation.

Based on the proportion of time flow, that is, one year in the Initial Universe.

Although it wasn't a huge advantage for him to have Card Draw System, it was one of the manifestations of the power of the Ganwu Country Lord, Universe Venerable level powerhouse.

Is this what it feels like to be a privilege hog?

Not bad at all!

"Yes, Master, I will go and make the preparations right away. By the way, could we bring my clansman Luo Feng along on this trip?"

Li Jing didn't forget Luo Feng about this good thing.

Luo Feng had helped him when he was just starting out on the path of martial arts and preparing to go to the universe.

Now that he's sent it, he'll also get a beautiful view of Luo Feng.

For Luo Feng, spending an extra year in the Chaos City of the Initial Universe would be far more beneficial than for Li Jing.

Although Luo Feng is also a cheater, he still needs basic understanding. The Chaos City of the Initial Universe is a treasure trove for accelerating understanding and amplifying its effects.

"Yes, that's how it should be!"

"Luo Feng's achievement of ranking 3rd in the entire universe in the Genius Battle and securing a spot in the Primal Secret Region is already a feat unseen in many eras in our Ganwu Universe Country. Moreover, he is from the same hometown and clan as you, my disciple, so it is only natural to bring him along."

"You can go and speak with Luo Feng, my disciple. We'll meet at my palace first thing tomorrow morning."

The Ganwu Country Lord nodded, and at the same time, gave the opportunity to bestow favors upon Luo Feng to Li Jing.

In his view, although Luo Feng's talent was far inferior to Li Jing's, it was a certainty that he would not fall from grace and would achieve Immortal.

Moreover, he and his beloved apprentice Li Jing are not only from the same hometown and clan, but they are also from the same generation of Genius Battle who have joined the Core Layer the Virtual Universe Company.

With these layers of relationships built up, he will inevitably become his apprentice's right-hand man in the future.

Whether handling miscellaneous matters or overseeing their hometown, they are far more trustworthy than ordinary outsiders.

After bidding farewell to his teacher, the Ganwu Country Lord, Li Jing returned to his palace atop Ganwu Sacred Mountain. Along the way, his consciousness connected with the Virtual Universe, leading him to Luo Feng.

"Luo Feng, I need to speak with you. I'll take you to our teacher's palace first thing tomorrow morning. He will personally escort us to the Chaos City of the Initial Universe."

Li Jing succinctly explained his purpose.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng's expression brightened, but then, as if remembering something, he looked somewhat troubled and replied to Li Jing, "Li Jing, could I perhaps consider this further? I'll give you an answer in 10 minutes!"

Li Jing was taken aback, remembering that Luo Feng was different from him, an orphan, because he had family on Earth.

Thirty years passed in the Initial Universe, and a hundred years passed in the Primal Universe. From birth to now, Luo Feng is only a few decades old.

Not only him, but Hong, the oldest of the four Earthlings, is also under 100 years old.

Suddenly, they left their hometown and family, heading to the Initial Universe of the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters.

It's truly cruel that we didn't even have time to say a proper goodbye in real life.

"Want to see your family one more time?"

Li Jing directly pointed out Luo Feng's concerns.

Luo Feng nodded somewhat awkwardly.

To be honest, he knew that Li Jing had asked the Ganwu Country Lord to give him a ride out of kindness.

Sending a spaceship from Virtual Universe Company to pick you up is nowhere near as safe and fast as having the dignified Universe Country Lord personally escort you.

Moreover, judging from Li Jing's words, they could enter the Initial Universe earlier than other geniuses of the same generation.

Having experienced the Genius Battle and had some exchanges with extraordinary geniuses such as Wuka and Rong Jun, his horizons have been greatly broadened.

It is clear that the Initial Universe is a sacred place for Human Race cultivation, and every moment spent cultivating in the Initial Universe is extremely precious.

However, he was able to benefit from Li Jing's influence and spend almost a year more cultivating in the Initial Universe.

It's obvious that Li Jing is taking care of him!

However, he was not sure if he would appreciate Li Jing's kindness, which made him feel somewhat embarrassed.

"This is simple, you don't need to worry about it anymore. When I returned to Earth last time, I already had Senior Glory King leave Divine Power Token in the Solar System."

"If you want to go back, I can ask Senior Glory King to use the Divine Kingdom Teleportation to take you back to see your family one last time. Then, you can use the Divine Kingdom Teleportation again before tomorrow morning to get back to the Ganwu Secret Region."

Luo Feng was overjoyed upon hearing this, never expecting that Li Jing would provide a solution that satisfied both sides of this difficult situation.

This way, he could both meet and say goodbye to his family in real life and not let Li Jing's good intentions down by catching the fast train of the Ganwu Country Lord.

"Then I'll trouble Li Jing to contact Senior Glory King to accompany me on this trip. I'll cover the Divine Kingdom Teleportation myself."

Luo Feng patted his chest emphatically, exuding an air of wealth and power.

After securing third place in the Genius Battle and earning a spot in the Primal Secret Region, he received a cash reward of 10,000 Hunyuan Unit and 100,000 internal points from the Virtual Universe Company.

They are now quite wealthy.

Li Jing nodded and reminded Luo Feng, "You can use the Hunyuan Unit freely, but the points within the Virtual Universe Company are extremely rare. It's the right choice to use them to buy secret techniques and treasures that can't be bought outside. Don't get carried away and buy things indiscriminately."

"It's best to wait until you reach the Chaos City of the Initial Universe, choose your future direction, and then go to the treasure vault to purchase the corresponding secret techniques."

Li Jing nodded, then recalled how Luo Feng, due to the inexperienced Babata's deception, used up all the points he had earned in the Genius Battle in one go.

When they arrived in Chaos City, they couldn't even afford the Drifting Blood Secret Technique recommended by True Yan King, which only cost 800 points, so they couldn't help but offer a reminder.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng broke out in a cold sweat and nodded solemnly.

Thanks to Li Jing's reminder!

After the Genius Battle ends, you gain Core Layer position in the Virtual Universe Company, granting you access to its treasury and the ability to exchange for secret techniques and treasures.

Babata acted like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world, shouting and urging him to spend his points.

Luckily, he was struggling with his decision at the time and didn't listen to Babata, otherwise he would have suffered a great loss.

Babata then realized that his wrong decision had almost harmed Luo Feng, and quietly hid behind Luo Feng.

I felt a little uneasy.

Back when Li Jing was rising to power, he and Luo Feng still held the mentality of seniors and superiors.

How much time has passed?

He's turned into a little brother who always needs to be helped by others!

Life is truly unpredictable!

But thinking about it, being led by Li Jing isn't so bad; otherwise, how could I enjoy so many conveniences?

The King-level Immortal personally ran errands, and the Universe Country Lord escorted him, allowing him to enter the Initial Universe ahead of schedule.

None of these were things that his old master Hu Yanbo, would have dared to even dream of!
