Lin Moyu experienced firsthand what true teleportation felt like.

In the blink of an eye, he had left Inhabited Planet No. 98-1 and arrived directly in the starry sky.

Beneath his feet was a massive bird, its entire body wreathed in roaring flames.

It bore some resemblance to the Archaic Luanniao he had encountered in the small world.

But Lin Moyu knew with certainty that it was not an Archaic Luanniao.

The difference in size alone was enough to set them worlds apart.

The colossal bird had a wingspan of more than ten thousand meters and a body at least five thousand meters long.

A creature of such immense size could never exist in the small world.

Zhu Tian had been watching Lin Moyu the entire time and noticed the flicker of surprise in his eyes.

"Do you know what this is?"

Lin Moyu answered uncertainly, "A Vermilion Bird?"

He was currently in the Vermilion Bird Starfield, standing before its Field Lord.

According to the myths and legends of his past life, the Vermilion Bird was such a bird of fire.

Zhu Tian glanced at him, "How did you know?"

After a moment's thought, Lin Moyu replied, "I was merely guessing."

Zhu Tian burst into laughter. He realized that Lin Moyu had not been talking nonsense—he had actually guessed correctly.

And that alone was impressive.

It indicated that Lin Moyu was not merely a battle-hardened fighter. He also possessed an exceptionally sharp mind.

Zhu Tian led Lin Moyu down onto the Vermilion Bird's back. The flames automatically parted, revealing a spacious area beneath them.

Contrary to Lin Moyu's expectations, the bird's back was not scorching hot. Instead, it radiated a gentle warmth.

Lin Moyu could not tell whether the Vermilion Bird beneath his feet was a living being or a puppet.

He only knew one thing: it was immensely powerful, powerful enough to end his life at any moment.

Zhu Tian waved his hand, and the surrounding flames parted, revealing a crimson-red tea table as smooth as jade.

Rolling flames seemed to be sealed within its structure, while the law of fire permeated the surroundings so intensely that it was almost on the verge of condensing into physical form.

With a single glance, Lin Moyu could tell that the tea table was extraordinarily valuable.

Zhu Tian sat down beside it and flicked his hand. A tea set appeared before him.

Lin Moyu naturally stepped forward to brew the tea.

He had often prepared tea for his teachers back in the small world, so he was quite skilled at it.

Though he could not compare with grandmasters who devoted themselves entirely to the art, he was certainly no novice.

"Do you often drink tea?" Zhu Tian asked.

Lin Moyu answered honestly, "Back in the small world, my teachers enjoyed tea, so I brewed it for them frequently."

A faint smile appeared on Zhu Tian's face, "Would you mind telling me a little about your experiences in the small world?"

Lin Moyu nodded, "What would you like to hear, Senior?"

"Anything. Start with how you began your cultivation."

At that moment, Zhu Tian looked less like the mighty Field Lord and more like a kindly elder interested in hearing a junior's story.

As he poured tea for Zhu Tian, Lin Moyu selectively recounted his experiences in the small world.

Naturally, he did not reveal everything. He omitted matters concerning Antares and his four wives, who were resting within the Coffin of Slumber.

Instead, he focused mainly on his cultivation journey.

An expression of wonder gradually appeared on Zhu Tian's face.

"Are you saying that in your small world, everyone undergoes class awakening upon reaching adulthood, obtaining a corresponding class and skills?"

"And once they reach level 90, those skills can be transformed into law arts?"

Lin Moyu nodded, "That's roughly how it works. However, not every skill can be converted into a law art."

Zhu Tian lightly tapped the tea table with his finger, producing a rhythmic clacking sound.

His eyes narrowed slightly, as though he had fallen deep into thought.

"The rules have changed..."

Lin Moyu's ears twitched subtly.

He had heard those words clearly, but he could not understand what Zhu Tian meant.

Zhu Tian did not elaborate. Instead, he asked, "Do you know why I came looking for you?"

Lin Moyu shook his head, "I do not."

Zhu Tian chuckled, "I want to find you a master."

"Huh?" Lin Moyu froze.

Find him a master?

He had only just arrived in the greater world and barely knew anyone. Why would Zhu Tian, the prestigious Field Lord of the Vermilion Bird Starfield and a peak God Sovereign, suddenly want to find him a master?

And judging from Zhu Tian's tone, the master he had in mind was at least someone on the same level as himself.

In the greater world, although one's ultimate achievements still depended on one's own efforts, having a master was undoubtedly far better than having none.

At the very least, a master could answer questions, resolve doubts, and provide guidance.

When specific resources were needed, having such a powerful connection could also mean that doors that would otherwise remain closed might open.

Yet Lin Moyu remained composed, showing no sign of excitement.

"May I ask why you wish to find a master for me, Field Lord?"

"Because you are exceptional enough."

The human race thirsted for talent, and countless rules and systems had been established to cultivate and select outstanding individuals.

As long as someone was talented enough, they would not be left buried in obscurity.

Even so, as far as Lin Moyu knew, it was virtually unheard of for a figure of the Field Lord's caliber to personally seek out a master for someone.

Lin Moyu asked, "May I ask whom you intend to recommend me to Field Lord?"

Zhu Tian smiled mysteriously, "I can't tell you just yet. All I can say is that countless people want to become his disciples, and the competition is fierce."

"Although you are exceptional, you are by no means the only possible choice."

"Even so, if you succeed, the benefits will be beyond imagination."

Zhu Tian painted a grand vision for Lin Moyu, a smile lingering on his face. He was confident that Lin Moyu would take the bait.

And Lin Moyu did, "May I ask, Field Lord, what must I do?"

"It's simple. First, complete missions to raise your authority."

"To what level?"

"At least level 5."

That requirement alone spoke volumes.

A level 3 authority allowed movement within a range of 200 light-years.

A level 4 authority granted free movement throughout the entire Vermilion Bird Starfield.

Once one reached level 5 authority, they could travel freely across the four starfields, with the exception of the central God City.

Since Zhu Tian required him to reach at least level 5, a thought immediately crossed Lin Moyu's mind.

The master Zhu Tian intended to recommend must be from God City.

Lin Moyu lowered his head and replied, "I understand. I will do my best to raise my authority."

Zhu Tian gave him another instruction, "Also, starting from level 3, there is a chain mission. If you have the chance, work on it."

Lin Moyu had only just reached level 3 and had not yet examined the available missions in detail, so he had no idea what this chain mission was.

Nevertheless, he immediately agreed.

"Understood."

Zhu Tian nodded, "You may go. If anything comes up, contact me through the Human Emperor Network."

"As you command. I shall take my leave."

Just as Lin Moyu was about to depart, Zhu Tian called out to him again.

"By the way, how many years did you say you've been cultivating in the small world?"

Lin Moyu answered, "I awakened my class and began cultivating at eighteen. It has been exactly ten years."

Zhu Tian's eyelids twitched slightly. He waved his hand.

"Got it. Off you go."

Lin Moyu departed, flying through the starry sky toward the Planet No. 98-1.

He passed through the dense atmosphere and soon disappeared from view.

Zhu Tian slapped the tea table with a sharp crack, his voice filled with excitement.

"He began cultivating at eighteen, and it's only been ten years!"

"I underestimated him."

Zhu Tian had previously seen Lin Moyu's profile and knew that he was only twenty-eight years old, but he had never known when Lin Moyu had actually begun cultivating.

The difference between starting at age five and starting at age ten was enormous, let alone starting at eighteen.

He had never expected Lin Moyu to have begun cultivating at eighteen, with only ten years of cultivation under his belt.

In just a decade, Lin Moyu had gone from an ordinary person who had never cultivated before to the 3rd tier Transcendent God realn.

And that was not all.

His combat power was so extraordinary that it had completely surpassed Zhu Tian's expectations.

Zhu Tian's eyes shone with excitement.

He was definitely going to recommend Lin Moyu!
