Chapter 856: Candidates From All Academies

“Oasis Dragon King!”

Claesabe narrowed his eyes solemnly; that guy was the unquestionable top of the Royal Rank at the moment in the Amir Royal Academy!

He had challenged the man seven times, failing each and every time!

He only looked up to that guy in the academy.

Ibetaluna was also aware of the Oasis Dragon King’s feats. Her body became taut as she unconsciously got ready to defend herself.

“You’re here too?”

The Oasis Dragon King was a young man with soft golden hair; he had an athletic body with perfect proportions. He glanced at Claesabe with a casual smile.

Claesabe coughed and said, “I’m here to make friends… What about you?”

The Oasis Dragon King looked at Ibetaluna but chose not to reply. He focused his prideful eyes on Su Ping and smiled. “I wonder where you’re from. I hope we can practice if there’s an opportunity.”

Claesabe and Ibetaluna were both astonished, not expecting him to actually issue a challenge to Su Ping.

Su Ping was stunned and then said with unwillingness, “I don’t think it’s necessary for us to practice, is it?”

“!!”

Claesabe was stunned, not expecting Su Ping to turn him down that easily.

Although declining was always an option, every genius was proud and would never flinch before a challenger.

The Oasis Dragon King was also surprised. He narrowed his eyes and said, “It shouldn’t be a problem for you to pass the selection match and enter the star zone match. We won’t have a chance to fight there. I hope you can show your full abilities if we happen to meet in the selection match.”

Su Ping was lost for words. Why is everyone so aggressive? If they want to fight, they could always challenge the Star Lords.

“OK.” Su Ping didn’t say anything else; he could always beat up the guy if they did meet. After all, there had to be a winner.

Oasis Dragon King gradually dropped his smile and stared at Su Ping after hearing his reluctant response, then he left without saying a word.

It wasn’t until the Oasis Dragon King left that Claesabe and Ibetaluna finally felt that they were breathing smoothly; they had felt as if a mountain had been laid upon them.

“Brother Su, you’ve offended Oasis Dragon King.”

Claesabe wore a bitter smile.

Su Ping was stunned. “I did?”

Claesabe didn’t know how to explain, seeing the confusion on Su Ping’s face, and remembering his sincere reply moments earlier.

Ibetaluna’s face was rather cold. She didn’t like Oasis Dragon King, because she felt she had been ignored!

Although she had heard about his accomplishments and wasn’t confident of beating him, she was still upset after being ignored.

“So what? Brother Su isn’t scared of him!” Ibetaluna snorted.

Claesabe looked at her and knew why she was angry. He put on a bitter smile; he too had been ignored until he issued a challenge; he fought the man seven times to make him remember his name and admit he was a nice opponent.

However, he felt like he was more of a sparring partner than an opponent to that man

He shook his head and said, “That’s just how he is. Brother Su, you must try your best if you do meet him in a match. He came here because he sees you as worthy, but you declined his invitation. That was insulting.”

Su Ping could only say, “Okay, I’ll do my best.”

Claesabe put on a bitter smile, not knowing what to say.

They stayed and talked to Su Ping for a while, then they left to train themselves.

They were much stronger than others in their level because they were talented and hardworking; they mostly preferred solitude over socializing.

Having nothing else to do, Su Ping stopped wandering around and sat down to train.

The nearby astral power was drawn to him forming a funnel when he activated the Chaos Star Chart. The flight crew in that area was shocked, thinking it was an accident.

They were relieved to find it was being caused by Su Ping’s training, but then they were shocked again.

Su Ping was already able to loot the astral power within several hundred meters with the Chaos Star Chart when he was a third-level battle pet warrior. His current attainments allowed him to attract the power located in half of the rest area, once again forming a funnel.

Su Ping was at the center of the funnel; astral power was being accumulated in his body from the top of his head, then it was purified and compressed.

The pure astral power was further compressed until it was like water drops.

Those water drops were compressed again into solid crystals of astral power.

Such crystals melded with his cells, making them even bigger and sturdier!

Normal battle pet warriors’ astral power was in the form of gas.

If it was refined, it might appear as mist; if the refinement was taken a step further, it would manifest as water drops.

Su Ping’s astral power had been purified again and again, which had made the intensity of his astral power even higher than that of Star State warriors.

“What is going on?”

“The surrounding astral power… Seems like it’s being lured away.”

Su Ping’s cultivation soon shocked a few men close by; they followed the flow of astral power and immediately saw Su Ping in the eye of the astral power storm.

Is he cultivating?

What kind of technique is that? It’s so domineering!

“Damn, I thought my training technique was brutal enough, but it’s like a tame sheep compared to this!”

“If he were outside in the world, he would have looted the astral power of half a continent!”

“He’s not cultivating, this is robbing!”

More and more people went there to see; they stood in complete shock outside the astral power storm caused by Su Ping.

The Oasis Dragon King was also cultivating on a mountaintop on the east side of the resting area. He suddenly felt that the nearby astral power was flowing away, as if it were being absorbed.

Is someone trying to steal what is mine?

Oasis Dragon King coldly opened his eyes. He didn’t stand up, but his senses were spread out like a hurricane along with his astral power. He quickly found Su Ping who was like a whale sucking water. His face showed a changed expression.

It’s him?

His face turned cold. He remembered his challenge. Is this the guy’s way to counterattack?

He closed his eyes again and fully activated his technique. Very soon, the astral power around him also began to seethe, violently surging to enter his body in a violent manner.

The astral power inside the resting area was then divided into two storms that surrounded Su Ping and the Oasis Dragon King.

The people in other areas had stopped cultivating; they were dumbfounded when they scanned the rest area.

“The astral power in this place has been gobbled up by those two people!”

“It’s so domineering! Oasis Dragon King is also a madman!”

“How are we going to cultivate? We have to move on to another region.”

“I didn’t expect to see such a pair of monsters among us.”

“I’ve long heard that the top of the Royal Rank is a rare genius; I didn’t expect to see another one.”

The other eight candidates whispered, then chose to go to other areas.

Although they could still cultivate there, they would inevitably be affected.

The eight of them left, having no interest in watching more of that drama.

In the rest area—both Su Ping and Oasis Dragon King were cultivating, a boundary was formed right between them. More astral power flowed towards Su Ping as time went by.

Oasis Dragon King coldly widened his eyes while sitting on the mountaintop.

He unleashed his astral power again. This time, he was going to loot astral power even at the cost of his own!

On the other side, Su Ping sat at the center of the astral power storm, his face showing frowns and smiles at times. He had already forgotten where he was while meditating and understanding laws on a deeper level.

It was hard for others to meditate; however, Su Ping had been through countless battles in cultivation sites and could do that easily.

He could easily meditate even when caught in grave danger.

That was a huge test about willpower.

Oasis Dragon King looted the astral power in the resting area with increased seriousness; space was evenly divided again. The leading instructor in the spaceship was also stunned, then he detected the situation in the rest area.

“I knew that Oasis Gray is a freak. But where is this one from? It’s true that freaks love each other’s company. I wonder whether those two can reach that astonishing girl’s height.”

Time flew.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The instructor announced telepathically that day, “We’ve arrived at the Illusionary God Monument Mysterious Realm!” All ten of them woke up, including Su Ping who had been meditating and understanding laws.

The other eight candidates returned to the rest area after the instructor’s announcement. The astral power had been gradually recovering since Su Ping and Oasis Dragon King stopped cultivating, but it was still thinner than before and hadn’t been fully replenished.

Everybody was looking at the view outside the spaceship. The transparent wall made everybody feel like they were in space; they saw dazzling stars, mottled nebulae and enormous, spinning galaxies.

A gargantuan vortex that looked like a black hole was spinning silently in the space ahead of them.

That was the actual Illusionary God Monument Mysterious Realm.

There was a space station orbiting the mysterious realm; many Star Lords have watched the place.

The spaceship sent out a signal and passed the inspection of the space station.

Everybody saw colorful streaks of light in the darkness above their heads after the spaceship flew into the mysterious realm; they seemed to have instantly crossed millions of galaxies.

Then, all the light was gone, but then the environment was brightened. They found themselves in a world where a lot of monuments were standing.

Many great monuments floated everywhere in that place; they were vaguely forming a pyramid.

Far in the distance—there was a square, and a couple of islands and temples that floated in the void.

“The living quarters are over there,” said a beautiful woman who looked gentle and obedient.

Many people looked at her. She didn’t look intimidating, but nobody underestimated her, for she was only second to Oasis Dragon King on the Royal Rank!

Oasis Dragon King looked back at her. “You’ve been here before?”

“Only once,” replied the girl softly.

Oasis Dragon King nodded, choosing to remain silent. He turned around and glanced at someone at a distance, but received no response; he became cold, so he withdrew his gaze.

The spaceship at the moment was flying towards the square in the distance.

It looked like a regular square, but it became bigger as the spaceship moved closer; the square became bigger and bigger, until it turned out to be a continent floating in the void!

“Look, it’s a spaceship from the Hugh Mia Academy!”

“The Dragon Tomb Academy’s is over there. They’re also here! That dragon carries the mark of their president, Tex!”

“The Holy Oriole Academy is here too. It was once one of the five best academies in Silvy. It seems that it’s still trying to reclaim its former glory.”

The spaceship approached a corner of the square while they spoke.

Everybody was in the process of meeting candidates from other academies.

“You’re late,” said a smiling, brawny gray-haired man who seemed to know the instructor.

The academies were competitive, but the instructors had led many students to that place and already knew each other very well.

“What’s the point of coming early? You had to wait too,” replied the instructor casually.

The other academies also had ten candidates. All of them turned around and looked at the newcomers.

All of a sudden, a girl from the Hugh Mia Academy trembled with widened eyes. She seemed to be utterly shocked. “It’s him?”

The woman next to her—who was dressed in a more mature way—asked in surprise, “What’s wrong? Do you know any of them?”

“He…”

The girl looked at the young man; she was stunned, oblivious to every word her friend had said. Her head was completely muddled; she didn’t expect to see him there!

She had thought that she had surely left him in the dust, given her position and privileges in the Hugh Mia Academy. She had been planning to return to the Blue Planet in a glorious manner as the strongest person across the world.

Then, she would reclaim the dignity she had once lost when her legacy was stolen and her grandfather humiliated.

However, little did she expect she would meet the guy in that place!

She was none other than Yuan Linglu, who had been scouted on the Blue Planet!
