Chapter 1994
"Huh? Xu Jingming has actually reached the sixth level of the Star Realm?"
"That's true, but why doesn't he need to team up?"
"That's right. He's increased so many levels in just a few months. It's obvious he's relied on external forces. His strength is superficial. How can he act alone like that?"
"I heard it was Lord Ye Li who gave the order alone."
"No wonder, Xu Jingming is Lord Ye Li's junior brother, so it's normal for him to have special privileges."
"..."
Every student who can enter Starry Sky Academy is a prodigy.
In competitions like this, these people naturally want to act alone and make their mark.
However, due to regulations, those at the fourth to sixth level of the Star Realm must act in teams.
Of course, there are also some people whose abilities are truly extraordinary.
Even within this level range, you don't need to team up.
Such people are extremely rare, and everyone knows that.
But now a stranger named Xu Jingming has suddenly appeared on the list.
In particular, she and her mentor Ye Li are from the same sect.
This immediately sparked a large-scale discussion.
Many people are complaining: why is Xu Jingming, whose combat power is even lower, allowed to not need to team up?
And yet they have no choice but to obey?
However, despite their dissatisfaction, they could only discuss it among themselves.
If you were to actually go after the immortal god Ye Li because of this, you would be courting death.
......
Inside a high-level exclusive rest area of the Expeditionary 7 starship.
The space is arranged like a small observation deck, with a huge arched floor-to-ceiling window on one side.
Outside the window, the cosmos sky flashes past rapidly, a dazzling spectacle of light and color.
On the other side are comfortable and spacious sofas and chairs.
Several powerful men and women sat casually, one of whom had red hair and golden eyes; he was Chi Huang.
These people are all part of a small circle centered around Chi Huang.
"With Luo Li participating this time, I finally have a chance to prove that I am stronger than her."
Chi Huang held a wine glass, a hopeful smile on his face.
"really."
One of the companions nodded with a smile, "She had been using seclusion as an excuse to avoid battle, not giving you, Brother Huang, a chance."
"This is a demon-hunting competition, and everything depends on the results."
"Then, I'll crush her fair and square!"
Chi Huang drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
"Haha, that's right."
The crowd immediately chimed in agreement.
After chatting for a while, someone spoke up:
"Speaking of which, Lord Colt doesn't seem to be in a good mood lately."
I've run into him several times by chance, and he always seemed to have an eerily low aura. Has he run into some trouble?
Upon hearing this, everyone's gazes instinctively turned to Chi Huang, who was sitting in the main seat.
Although Chi Huang has a master-level teacher.
But in addition to his teachers, he also received other forms of financial aid.
This Colt was one of the sponsors of Crimson Emperor.
Chi Huang knows best what's going on on his end.
Chi Huang leaned back in his chair and shook the crystal glass in his hand, which was now filled with amber liquid.
He said in a somewhat casual tone:
"You'd better not mess with him lately. His precious son, Collins, is in big trouble."
"Collins?"
A woman with a voluptuous figure, wearing fiery red leather armor, raised an eyebrow:
"I vaguely remember him. Was he the one who ran a family business in some remote star system? What happened to him?"
"Recently, he was found to have colluded with demons, corrupted humans, and sold demon materials. He is currently under investigation."
Chi Huang spoke up, "Speaking of which, this matter is related to our Starry Sky Academy."
The whole thing was first discovered by Xu Jingming from our college.
“Selling demon materials is really wrong.”
"But given Lord Colt's status, how come this wasn't suppressed when it happened in our academy?"
One of his companions asked curiously.
"Who knows? I guess Xu Jingming didn't agree."
Chi Huang had no concept of the Dao.
"Xu Jingming is indeed extraordinary to be able to withstand the pressure from immortal gods."
The woman who had spoken earlier said with a smile, "Speaking of which, there's been quite a bit of talk about this Xu Jingming lately."
"Oh? Tell me in detail."
Chi Huang raised an eyebrow, showing interest.
"Is such that......"
The woman briefly recounted what had recently happened.
"Haha, that's interesting, that's interesting."
Chi Huang's heterochromatic crimson-gold eyes immediately lit up.
He was just looking for a reason to vent his anger on Colt when Xu Jingming walked right into his trap.
"go!"
Chi Huang suddenly stood up from his seat.
His tall, muscular body generated a blast of scorching heat. He waved his hand, a wicked smile playing on his lips:
"Go find Xu Jingming! I want to see if he really has the ability to act alone!"
The plan was simple: as a peak Star Realm cultivator, he certainly couldn't make a direct move.
However, finding a true Star Rank 6 expert who can act independently is still an option.
Xu Jingming's consecutive breakthroughs in such a short period of time must have been aided by external forces.
Even ordinary Star Rank 6 cultivators might not be able to defeat them, let alone those Star Rank 6 cultivators who can act alone.
We'll give Xu Jingming a good beating then, which will be a way of venting Lord Colt's anger!
As for the other party's status as a disciple of the Frost Crown Sovereign, he really didn't care.
He refused to believe that a supreme ruler would bother him over such a trivial matter!
......
The rest area is inside a luxury suite.
Xu Jingming sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the contents of the secret manual displayed on the holographic projection in front of him.
Golden lightning crackled around him as he operated according to the instructions in the manual.
After a while, the lightning gradually died down.
"This T4 level combat skill is indeed not so easy to master."
Xu Jingming breathed a sigh of relief.
He purchased this combat skill a few days ago from the academy's shop for 5 points.
[Thunder Abyss Technique (T4): An area-of-effect combat skill that condenses lightning into a vast abyss, with a maximum casting range covering 10,000 square kilometers.]
Although the Frost Crown Overlord instructed him to focus on melee combat first.
But he still sought out this area-of-effect T4-level combat skill.
In this way, the efficiency of hunting monsters will be much higher once we arrive at Blood Refining Star.
Of course, he has only just begun his cultivation and has not yet reached the level where he can add points.
"Ding dong~~"
Suddenly, the smart arm protector emitted a notification sound; it was from Moonshadow:
"Jingming, I'm ready. We can leave anytime."
Back when they were on Meteorite Star, Xu Jingming had said he wanted to treat Yueying to a meal.
However, as soon as he returned, he immediately went to the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Realm.
Since I had some free time, I invited Yueying to join me.
Okay, let's set off now.
After replying to Yueying's message, Xu Jingming took off his training clothes, changed into casual wear, and then left the room.
