Chapter 107: Chapter 107: An Era of Geniuses (First Update)

Mo Han was also startled. He had not expected that a mere outer palace student would dare to speak to him in such a manner.

However, if Ling Chen really was that kind of unparalleled genius, then such arrogance was indeed justified.

"The point is well taken. Since that’s the case, starting from tomorrow, you will enter the central palace to become a core student!" Mo Han said.

Originally, he had intended to take Ling Chen as his disciple.

But Ling Chen simply did not trust him.

Therefore, he had to abandon this idea.

He was, after all, a cultivator of the Primordial Pill Realm, and numerous students wished to be taken under his wing. But Ling Chen, with his self-perceived talent, wouldn’t even deign to answer his questions. In which case, he didn’t feel the need to press the issue.

"Thank you, Palace Master!"

Ling Chen gave a slight bow and then returned to the crowd.

Hearing that Ling Chen was about to become a core student like him, Su Qingyun’s face turned cold.

He had become a core student by virtue of his Spiritual Body talent.

But what about Ling Chen?

It was nothing more than luck, having made it through the True Martial Tower.

Ling Chen was even unwilling to explain how he had passed through the nine floors of the True Martial Tower. Obviously, he must have used some despicable means!

"Continue."

Mo Han waved his hand.

"Yes."

The Black Robed Elder hurriedly took the command and went on.

"Qin Hao!"

The Black Robed Elder announced the next candidate.

Upon hearing this, a young man came out and entered the True Martial Tower.

Mo Han looked toward Vice Palace Master Wu and said, "Now, explain?"

"Palace Master, Ling Chen joined the Academic Palace three months ago, and at that time, his cultivation was only at the late second stage of the Spirit Sea Realm! Moreover, the talent testing stone showed that Ling Chen didn’t have any cultivation talent," Vice Palace Master Wu said.

"No talent?"

Mo Han was taken aback.

Ling Chen had no talent, yet could become a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator?

To be able to ascend from the second layer of the Spirit Sea Realm to the fifth layer in just three months?

Seeing the Palace Master was somewhat skeptical, Vice Palace Master Wu gestured, and Elder Bai Qian and Deacon Lan came over.

"Palace Master, it is indeed as the Vice Palace Master has said, we have seen it with our own eyes. Even you can inquire with the newly admitted students, they can also testify!" Elder Bai Qian hastened to say.

Deacon Lan nodded incessantly at the side.

"Really?"

Mo Han still could hardly believe it.

With the Vice Palace Master, Elder, and Steward all so certain, these people wouldn’t dare to deceive him.

"Then, how did he cultivate?"

Mo Han asked.

"According to Ling Chen, he raised his cultivation by consuming the Spirit Revitalizing Pill!" Vice Palace Master Wu quickly said.

"That’s really possible?"

Mo Han exclaimed.

Vice Palace Master Wu gave a wry smile and said, "We are not sure either. However, even for the newcomers with a Spiritual Body, they have only ascended two levels in three months. Ling Chen’s rise of three levels can only be attributed to elixirs; we cannot think of anything else that could boost cultivation so rapidly!"

Mo Han fell silent for a long time, for even with his broad knowledge and experience, he had never seen such an unusual method of cultivation.

"Forget it, I understand now."

Mo Han nodded and was about to leave.

"Palace Master, there’s something I need to discuss with you."

He waved Elder Bai Qian and Deacon Lan to step back, and Vice Palace Master Wu began to transmit his message.

"What’s the matter?"

Mo Han inquired.

"In our True Martial Academy, there has emerged a genius who possesses the Ice and Fire Saint Body!" Vice Palace Master Wu said.

"Really?"

Mo Han’s eyes widened with eagerness filling his face.

"Yes, you were in seclusion before, and I didn’t dare to disturb you, so I didn’t mention it," Vice Palace Master Wu transmitted.

"Come, take me to meet them!"

Mo Han said excitedly.

"Right!"

Vice Palace Master Wu nodded quickly and prepared to lead the way.

However, just at that moment, the True Martial Tower was once again enveloped in a radiant glow; then, the sound of nine bell tolls resounded once more!

"Another peerless genius?"

Mo Han stopped in his tracks, immediately looking towards the True Martial Tower.

The other senior members were so excited that they were shaking all over.

"The heavens favor our True Martial Academy!"

Some of the older Elders were so excited that they wept openly.

The faces of Su Qingyun and the other nine core disciples turned green. They were core disciples of the inner palace, yet they were defeated by two outer palace disciples?

And both of these people had breached the ninth floor of the True Martial Tower!

What made them feel stifled was that Qin Hao’s cultivation level seemed to be only at the early phase of the Spirit Sea Realm Fifth Layer!

Soon, Qin Hao emerged from the tower.

Mo Han stared at Qin Hao with utter shock in his eyes; Qin Hao’s cultivation level was even lower than Ling Chen’s, yet he managed to pass through the nine floors of the True Martial Tower and cause the True Martial Bell to ring?

"You should also report to the inner palace tomorrow!"

Mo Han patted Qin Hao on the shoulder.

Qin Hao felt a bit dizzy. Had he actually become a core disciple?

The problem was, after he entered the tower, he hadn’t encountered any attacks!

Soldiers—he did indeed see them, but they seemed to just stand there without doing much.

"Thank you, Palace Master!"

Only after the Black Robed Elder reminded him, did Qin Hao come to his senses.

The Black Robed Elder looked at the roster in his hand, his eyes brimming with incredulity.

How freaking powerful were these outer palace disciples?

Could a Spirit Sea Realm Fifth Layer’s cultivation really completely overpower a core disciple at the Sixth Layer with a Spiritual Body?

"Chen Yunong!"

The Black Robed Elder called upon a student whose cultivation level was only at the Spirit Sea Realm Fourth Layer.

Chen Yunong also entered the True Martial Tower as instructed.

"Oh crap, I messed up; I think I’ve destroyed all of the Spirit Arrays of the soldiers!"

Ling Chen gave a bitter smile.

In his rush to overcome the tower, he had accidentally destroyed the Spirit Transformation Arrays inside the bodies of the nine soldiers.

Without the support of Spiritual Power, the soldiers were nothing more than broken copper and iron.

"Dong~"

The sound of nine bell tolls echoed once again from the True Martial Tower, enveloped in dazzling light.

"Another peerless genius?"

Mo Han and other high-ranking officials of the Academic Palace were so excited they almost cried.

In this short period of time, three peerless geniuses had emerged.

"Are these even human?"

Mo Han looked at Chen Yunong, who was only at the Spirit Sea Realm Fourth Layer, and was so excited he was beside himself.

"Indeed, each generation surpasses the previous!"

Mo Han sighed wholeheartedly.

Compared to their youth, there were so many more geniuses now!

"You, report to the inner palace tomorrow."

Mo Han said with a beaming smile.

This guy in front of him was even more outstanding than Ling Chen.

A genius capable of overcoming five levels in battle!

"Lin Xiaodu!"

The Black Robed Elder read the name of another student.

"Dong!"

Unsurprisingly, it was another genius that made the True Martial Bell toll!

"Report to the inner palace!"

Mo Han laughed heartily.

Now, he had even forgotten about that genius with the Ice and Fire Saint Body that Vice Palace Master Wu mentioned!

Su Qingyun and the other ten core disciples were completely dumbfounded.

Were these guys from the outer palace so ferocious?

In the Spirit Sea Realm at the third or fourth layer, they could actually clear the True Martial Tower?

Could it be that these guys had challenged a fake tower just now?

Why were the soldiers they encountered just earlier so powerful?

Following that, five more students entered the True Martial Tower, then all nine floors lit up, and the True Martial Bell tolled again!

The weakest among them was merely at the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm Third Layer!

"Would you be willing to take me as your master?"

Mo Han approached the student at the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm Third Layer and said with a smiling face.

"I am willing!"

The student fell to his knees with a "putong" sound, and overzealously kowtowed, "Your disciple pays respect to Master!"

"Good disciple, get up!"

Mo Han laughed heartily.

He smugly looked at Ling Chen; even if Ling Chen was unwilling to take a master, there were others who were willing to take him as their master.

See? Late stage of Spirit Sea Realm Third Layer, yet capable of defeating a nine-layer Spiritual Soldier!
