"Ganwu, you've taken on a fine disciple!"

Congratulations, Ganwu!

Reaching the level of Universe Venerable means one is already considered a high-ranking member of the Human Race.

Unless they are Soul Enslavement, they will be resurrected soon after death and may even be eligible to attend meetings of the Human Race.

Naturally, they don't need to stay in the Public Region of the Tongtian Bridge Plane like ordinary geniuses and Immortal.

Instead, there are private areas similar to VIP boxes, where one can not only watch the progress of the Heavenly Bridge challenge but also see other people in the Public Region —a privilege reserved for Venerable Level experts.

As soon as the Ganwu Country Lord logged into the Tongtian Bridge Plane, he saw many people come forward to congratulate him, including some who had previously had only a casual relationship with him, which left him bewildered.

At this moment, the envy that the Venerable Ones and the Universe Country Lord felt for the Ganwu Country Lord was beyond words.

If they could take on a disciple as promising as Li Jing, they would be laughing in their dreams. If they still had dreams to dream of, given their strength, they would be ecstatic.

Li Jing is currently displaying top-tier talent and comprehension in both time and space.

There was also the spirituality displayed during the challenge of crossing the Heavenly Bridge, which combined the Space-Time Law.

It is foreseeable that, as long as Li Jing does not perish, his achievements will definitely not be inferior to theirs.

There is even a possibility that they could become a truly great and lofty being.

The master's status depends on his disciple; Li Jing Jingzai is guaranteed to reach the Venerable Level, and there is even a glimmer of hope that his disciple will reach an even higher level.

Who dares to laugh again at the Ganwu Country Lord as the greatest traitor of the Human Race?

Let's see if we can cultivate a disciple at the Venerable Level first!

"What's going on? What's so joyful about this?"

The Ganwu Country Lord is truly at his wit's end; he's still worried about his disciple Li Jing's attempt to cross the Heavenly Bridge.

With so many people congratulating him, could it be that Li Jing has also demonstrated considerable talent in the Time Origin Law, and that his journey across the Universe Heavenly Bridge has been relatively smooth?

Could it be that they've already completely analyzed all 108 essential aspects of the Space-Time Origin Law and passed the 12th level of the Universe Heavenly Bridge?

Even so, surely it shouldn't have elicited such a strong reaction from these Venerable Ones and Universe Country Lord?

"Ganwu, you're still pretending with us. Now everyone knows that your disciple, the Ganwu Country Lord, has already passed the 15th level of the Universe Level Universe Heavenly Bridge in just over 10 years since arriving in the Chaos City the Initial Universe. His Law Comprehension is comparable to that of Immortal God at the Marquis Level!"

"This has broken the record for Human Race geniuses at the Universe Level, raising the bar for geniuses by more than one level!"

"Li Jing, 15th floor of the Heavenly Bridge?"

The Ganwu Country Lord was also taken aback by this news.

Thank God, he really wasn't faking it.

If only he had known earlier that Li Jing possessed abilities in the Time Origin Law that were no less than those in the Space Origin Law.

Why go through all that trouble to borrow Supreme Treasure Point to buy the Time Origin Dragon Pearl?

Wouldn't it be better to exchange it for a high-level soul-type Treasure that would prevent Li Jing from being enslaved by Alien Race Soul Enslavement when he ventures out into the world?

But if you're asking who's to blame, you really can't blame Li Jing.

After all, Li Jing had no idea about his plans.

Even when he asked Li Jing if he was having any difficulties, Li Jing would say that everything was going smoothly.

All of Li Jing's speculations about his setbacks in the Time Origin Law remained merely in his imagination from beginning to end.

This made Ganwu both happy and somewhat depressed.

He was delighted that his apprentice Li Jing's talent was far greater than he had imagined.

He is no longer just a potential Venerable Level expert; he is a super genius with the potential to reach the true pinnacle of Human Race combat power!

He was frustrated because the Time Origin Dragon Pearl he had exchanged was already somewhat useless; if he were to recycle it and give it to the Human Race Treasury, it would be discounted.

The losses from this back-and-forth trip could be substantial!

Forget it, I'll just ask Li Jing again whether he needs the Time Origin Dragon Pearl.

If needed, Li Jing can integrate it; that would be making the best use of it.

If Li Jing says he doesn't need it, he'll ask Li Jing what he lacks most.

Then take the Time Origin Dragon Pearl to the Human Race Treasury to recycle it, Xue Yi Supreme Treasure Point, and exchange it for the treasures that Li Jing truly needs.

This time, I really learned my lesson from not communicating properly!

It was also his fault; he underestimated his apprentice Li Jing's talent.

He's only in his early thirties, yet he's on the 15th floor of the Universe Heavenly Bridge, Law Comprehension at the level of Marquis Immortal Level?

Who would believe it if I told them?

Even the virtual reality games developed by Virtual Universe Company wouldn't dare to have such a design.

Seeing that the Ganwu Country Lord's bewildered expression seemed genuine, the expressions of the other Universe Country Lord and venerable ones also froze somewhat.

No, Li Jing has such a strong talent for spacetime manipulation, Ganwu, his teacher, didn't even know?

Could Li Jing be hiding something behind the scenes?

No, it shouldn't be that bad!

Li Jing's display at this moment was already exaggerated enough!

What if they're hiding something else? That would be terrible!

Among the Venerables who congratulated the Ganwu Country Lord, the Venerable Nine Swords was the most perfunctory.

At this moment, the Venerable Nine Swords was filled with envy and jealousy.

Li Jing joined Virtual Universe Company during the Genius Battle he hosted.

If the Ganwu Country Lord hadn't taken Li Jing as his disciple beforehand, such a peerless genius should have been his!

It's his!!!

Compared to Li Jing, Bolan, who was originally quite pleasing to the eye, was completely overshadowed and looked like a nobody on the street.

Although in his previous assessment, Bolan had also shown a sliver of hope of becoming Universe Venerable.

But the Venerable Nine Swords knew better than anyone how slim this glimmer of hope was.

In the Genius Battle, Bolan seemed to have reached the first level of the seventh Trial Tower.

It was about the same as his achievement of reaching the second floor back then.

He could become a revered one, but it was almost impossible for Bolan.

The reason lies in the fact that after achieving Immortal, he encountered an opportunity during his adventure in the Cosmic Secret Realm that even Venerables envied.

Only through this did he successfully comprehend the Space Origin Law and achieve the realm of a Venerable One.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be much better than Bolan.

Even if a genius is one in a hundred million epochs, the Human Race has already produced quite a few so far!

Even excluding those who perish during their growth, very few ultimately achieve the Venerable Level!

Amidst the congratulations of the venerable ones, the Ganwu Country Lord happily withdrew from the Virtual Universe Trial and flew directly to Li Jing's residence in Chaos City.

He couldn't wait to see his beloved disciple!

In the City Lord's Mansion, amidst the Chaos Ruins, countless Alien Race corpses emanating powerful auras.

A ripple finally appeared in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord, which had remained calm and undisturbed throughout.

He saw clearly that after Ganwu exchanged the Time Origin Dragon Pearl from the treasury that day, he did not stay in Chaos City but left directly.

Over the past ten years, Li Jing has built Heavenly Bridge, entirely thanks to his own talent!

With such performance, there's already hope of reaching his level!

His previous assessment of Li Jing was a gross underestimation!

"Shadow!"

"Here!" From the darkness, a figure shrouded in shadow appeared silently.

"Do everything you can to keep the news under wraps. I don't want to hear any day that Li Jing has been assassinated by Alien Race!"

"Yes!" The gray figure disappeared back into the darkness.

"Li Jing, I hope you can grow up smoothly. Perhaps tens of thousands of epochs later, our Human Race will have another pillar!"

"The Ganwu has had a stroke of luck after a lifetime of misfortune! He's made a good choice in taking on this disciple!"

The Chaos City Lord gazed into the distance, his eyes seemingly able to traverse time and space.

Seeing that figure, which traversed the Primal Universe and the Universe Ocean tens of thousands of epochs later, still weak and immature, yet already displaying a hint of invincibility.
