East Sea Province, East Sea City.
In the suburbs, on a towering, snow-white floating peak, there are magnificent white buildings scattered, resembling a utopian paradise, transcending the mundane.
This is where the extraordinary elite family—the Li Clan resides.
Inside a magnificent palace.
"Li Qi was severely injured?"
"And defeated by a student from the Twenty-Five Schools Alliance?" The man in the purple robe looked at the report on the light screen in front of him, which contained a lot of textual information.
It was a summary from this year's Twenty-Five Schools Alliance Genius Cup.
Included was a post-match medical report about Li Qi.
"My son Li Qi may not be outstanding in the clan, but with the Frost Winter Domain's support, he can still hold his own against those with Tao Bone talent."
"Jiang Ye, how could he severely injure him in a competition with protective mechanisms in place?" The man in the purple robe's face turned cold.
Buzz buzz!
Suddenly, a new message popped up.
"Is it about Jiang Ye?" The man in the purple robe immediately clicked to view it.
In the next moment.
"Jiang Ye, not Tao Bone? But Original Talent?!" The man in the purple robe stared at the latest news, his pupils slightly contracted.
A brief moment passed.
The man in the purple robe picked up the communicator and dialed a number.
"Try to recruit this year's Genius Cup champion."
"Yes, the student named Jiang Ye..."
He hung up the call.
The man in the purple robe looked out the window, his gaze deep.
Winning the Twenty-Fifth School Genius Cup with Original Talent? The significance is immense.
In comparison, even his son's severe injury seemed trivial.
...
The same scene.
Also occurred in several other extraordinary elite families, the Zhou Family, the Chu Family, the Chen Family...
All for no other reason.
Just because that explosive news was sweeping the globe at an impressive speed.
"Original Talent, Jiang Ye, wins the Genius Cup!"
Original Talent winning the Genius Cup at the Twenty-Five Schools Alliance is truly shocking news.
Major media outlets are frantically reporting it.
...
All of this, Jiang Ye naturally was not aware of.
At this time, he was sitting cross-legged in the cultivation room, wholeheartedly refining the opportunity within him.
Time passed.
In the blink of an eye, a day had passed.
"Swish~"
Jiang Ye slowly opened his eyes, temporarily ending the refinement.
"This spiritual energy, refining it is quite arduous indeed."
"So far, I've only refined less than one-fifth." Jiang Ye sighed: "But the effect is quite remarkable."
"My Life Level."
"Has increased by nearly twice." Jiang Ye silently felt: "I'm not far from the late period of the Second Break."
Once all these gains are fully absorbed.
Perhaps there is a chance to break through to the Peak of Second Break!
"Comfortable." Jiang Ye's smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This trip to the Genius Cup was truly worthwhile, far beyond what was previously anticipated.
"Buzz buzz!" His phone vibrated.
Jiang Ye opened his phone to see dozens of unread messages pop up.
"Is it news about the Genius Cup?" Jiang Ye wasn't surprised.
But soon, he showed a look of astonishment: "Original Talent? Is it the school's promotion?"
Jiang Ye's face showed a peculiar expression.
He could understand the school's approach.
Winning the Genius Cup with Original Talent is indeed sensational, not only causing Jiang Ye's fame to skyrocket but also spreading Penglai University's name far and wide.
This is mutually beneficial.
But the problem is... Jiang Ye is no longer an Original Talent!
"After this uproar settles down, my Talent might continue to increase." Jiang Ye's expression became increasingly strange.
But luckily.
The school probably won't require him to retest his Talent.
At birth, during the college entrance examination, it was already tested once and recorded in his personal file, so there's no need for repeat testing.
"The school's push helps boost my popularity." Jiang Ye soon didn't mind.
The more people recognize him.
The system's enhancement to his Talent will be greater.
This is a good thing.
But to what extent it can increase? We'll have to wait until this situation is resolved to find out.
"Shen Changxi, Liu Wanxiao, have they also sent messages?" Jiang Ye looked at the phone projection.
Liu Wanxiao, Shen Changxi, and others sent messages, inquiring if his Original Talent was true.
These classmates didn't know Jiang Ye was Original Talent.
Jiang Ye could imagine their surprised expressions when they saw the news.
"The school really puts me in a tough spot." Jiang Ye shook his head and sighed, he didn't even know how to reply.
Buzz buzz!
Suddenly, the phone vibrated again.
"The teacher is here?" Jiang Ye's expression shifted, getting up and heading outside.
A moment later.
Two elders appeared in Jiang Ye's villa.
"Teacher Zhu, Elder Bai." Jiang Ye looked at the two elders, somewhat surprised.
"Jiang Ye."
"You won the championship without telling your teachers?" Zhu Honglie looked at him with a smile.
"Uh."
"Sorry, Teacher." Jiang Ye apologized: "I just returned to school and have been busy refining my opportunity."
"Haha, no worries." Zhu Honglie waved his hand, already aware of Jiang Ye's performance in the Genius Cup.
"Congratulations on winning the championship!"
Zhu Honglie smiled: "You've truly gained worldwide fame this time."
"Thanks to the teacher's guidance." Jiang Ye sincerely said.
Zhu Honglie nodded slightly, looking increasingly pleased.
He had guessed Jiang Ye would likely make it to the top three, maybe even win.
But when the news actually arrived, it still brought him a pleasant surprise, after all, Jiang Ye was the student he personally spent the most time teaching and guiding.
...
"That's enough congratulations." Zhu Honglie smiled: "The reason Elder Bai and I are here is to tell you a few things."
"Please go ahead, teacher." Jiang Ye perked his ears.
Zhu Honglie looked at Elder Bai.
"Jiang Ye."
"After discussing with Old Zhu and Qiu Cang from White Dragon University." Elder Bai said slowly: "We decided to arrange for you to undergo a life-and-death trial."
