Next.

The old man picked up Ye Chen's token, allocated him 2,420 points, and then said, "Kid, you're the fastest I've seen to advance to mid-level privileges. Keep it up, I believe you'll achieve great things."

"Mid-level privileges?"

Ye Chen was dumbfounded.

When did I get mid-level privileges?

Are you tricking me?

Mid-level privileges require accumulating 5,000 points!

The old man saw Ye Chen's confused expression and then said, "You don't know yet?"

Ye Chen replied, "I don't know."

What do I know, I only know I currently have an accumulated 2,520 points.

The old man chuckled, "Previously at Feijian Martial Arts Hall, you represented the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy in battle and won overwhelmingly. The Dean has already rewarded you with 3,000 points.

So now, your accumulated points have reached 5,520."

Happiness came a bit suddenly.

"Then if I destroy the Celestial Sword Sect, do I directly advance to high-level privileges?" Ye Chen asked instinctively.

"Ahem!"

The old man coughed.

What are you thinking?

The old man adjusted his expression and said, "The Celestial Sword Sect and the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy are both forces of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although there's often friction between them, it must be kept within certain limits.

Recent conflicts have already gone too far, so control is needed. The urgent matter now is to resolve the trouble in Demon Suppression Valley.

You don't need to go to Demon Suppression Valley for now, and don't provoke the Celestial Sword Sect recently. You have plenty of points now, so focus on cultivating.

Over 5,000 points should be enough for you to use for a few months, take this opportunity to quickly improve your strength."

Ye Chen acknowledged, "Thank you, Elder. Then I'll return to the Spirit Martial System first."

......

Back at the Spirit Martial System, Senior Sister Liu Meng'Er had gone out on a mission and hasn't returned yet.

Senior Brother Yuan Polu remained in the area where the Crumbling Cliff was located. Although he had lost all of his cultivation, he did not give up and persisted in smashing the Crumbling Cliff every day.

He had bruised himself all over.

Ye Chen found Senior Brother Yuan Polu and they roasted some food and drank some wine together.

Some things, Yuan Polu did not say.

Ye Chen did not mention them either, but kept them in his heart.

......

Star Spirit System.

A tutor entered a secret chamber to meet with Meng Changtian.

"Vice Dean Meng, the people I arranged didn't find Ye Chen. Ye Chen has already returned and completed his task. It turns out, his task this time was to go to Hui Feng City and eliminate Black Wind Village Mountain Bandits, and he completed it perfectly. I suspect someone was secretly helping him. Should we investigate? If found out, we can revoke his task rewards and severely punish him!"

Meng Changtian shook his head and said, "The Martial Arts Academy's tasks are personally managed by the Dean, so we shouldn't intervene. Otherwise, things could easily go wrong. Recently, I haven't been moving around much, but has anything happened?"

"There is indeed something big."

"Speak."

"People from Feiyang Martial Arts Academy also went to Hui Feng City to deal with Black Wind Mountain Bandits. Among them was a girl from the Qin family, but that group of people all died."

Meng Changtian's gaze flickered, then he sneered, "Spread the news of Ye Chen executing the mission to eliminate Black Wind Village Mountain Bandits to Feiyang Martial Arts Academy. With the Qin family losing a descendant, they will not let this go easily and will thoroughly investigate. It will easily lead to Ye Chen. By then, regardless of whether Ye Chen is related to their deaths, he will be troubled, and then we will see and act accordingly. Solving Ye Chen might not even require us to take action directly!"

"Vice Dean Meng, that move is brilliant!" The Star Spirit System tutor immediately flattered him.

......

In a tranquil courtyard at Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.

Dean Ouyang Shang sat in the courtyard, raised his hand and waved it, instantly unleashing a powerful force that merged into the void in an incredibly mysterious and complex manner.

Moments later.

In front of him appeared a mirror-like surface that rippled like water.

Inside the mirror appeared the figure of Yang Tianji.

"Elder Yang, don't worry, Ye Chen has returned safely."

"Dean Ouyang, protect him well, don't let him take risks again," Yang Tianji said with a furrowed brow.

"Elder Yang, the kid should have already condensed the Spirit Seal."

In the water mirror, Yang Tianji looked shocked.

Ouyang Shang smiled, "Elder Yang, if you trust me, why don't you let me investigate a bit?"

"No need, don't meddle in his personal cultivation matters."

Ouyang Shang chuckled, "He should have chosen the path of Extreme Spirit Master, if I'm not mistaken. Moreover, the Spirit Seal he condensed is the Celestial Spirit Seal, and it's already at the second level just after condensing."

"Ouyang Shang, you can speculate all you want; it's your freedom. But I have only one request, don't forcibly explore his matters."

Ouyang Shang nodded, "Alright then, I'm just speaking casually. Elder Yang, how are things on your side?"

The Great Qin Dynasty, Great Shang Dynasty, and Great Ming Dynasty together deployed four legendary powerhouses, while the Great Zhou Dynasty only had one, Yang Tianji.

Even though Yang Tianji was a Spirit Martial Master, it was still challenging.

"I can still manage," said Yang Tianji, "If there's nothing else, let's leave it at that."

Then, the water mirror shattered.

Ouyang Shang formed another set of seals with both hands, and a layer of fantastical light burst forth from between his palms and fingers.

In the dreamlike light, a sea of blood rolled.

Ouyang Shang was using the Heaven Concealing Secret Technique to view future scenes.

He had done this many times.

Every time he performed this secret technique, he would endure enormous backlash.

Yet he persisted.

Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, will it welcome great fortune or a disaster?

This must be clarified!

Soon, in the dreamlike light where the sea of blood rolled, Ye Chen's figure appeared again.

He walked out of the sea of blood.

Then, he sliced the sea of blood with a sword.

At the end of the sea of blood appeared figures.

Including Yang Tianji, Elder Bai Mei, Hua Qianxue, Yuan Polu, Liu Meng'Er, Yu Hui, Luo Tian, Qu Xiao... even Ouyang Shang himself!

The scene ended there.

Blood oozed from the corner of Ouyang Shang's mouth.

"Ye Chen, will he eventually walk the path of slaughter and draw his sword against us?" Ouyang Shang frowned deeply.

His breath was declining, growing increasingly aged!

Meanwhile.

At Lingyun Mountain.

Yang Tianji sat atop a high mountain peak.

Around the mountain, there were four legendary powerhouses, each standing on different peaks, encircling him.

Yang Tianji paid no heed to these people.

He had fought several battles with four opponents at once and now none dared to attack.

"Ouyang Shang, you are too obsessed with that uncertain future. Continue like this, and you will ruin the legendary path you've worked hard to tread," Yang Tianji sighed and softly murmured.

The world only knew the Great Zhou Dynasty had three legendary figures.

One in the royal family.

One in the Sect Alliance.

And one was the Spirit Martial Master, Yang Tianji.

But in reality.

There is another legendary figure, always biding his time.

That person is Ouyang Shang, who is trapped in a dead-end due to some uncertain future!

"Looks like the disturbances I sensed in Ye Chen's mind sea days ago was caused by him condensing the Celestial Spirit Seal... condensing the Extreme Celestial Spirit Seal so quickly.

By the way, how did this brat manage to condense the Celestial Spirit Seal?

No one could guide him, and my Thousand Spirits Secret Manual doesn't have records on this, right?

Did he figure it out by himself?"

The more Yang Tianji thought, the more shocked he became.

Forget it, I shouldn't think about it anymore; the matters at Lingyun Mountain are crucial and must be resolved quickly. Continuing to ponder Ye Chen's affairs, Yang Tianji feared he might be unable to resist and directly return to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.
