Chapter 2515: Biased

In fact, given Xie Wu’s presence in the Voidforce School, Lu Yin and Luo Lao'er should not have faced any difficulties at all. Xie Wu had actually been waiting for people from the Transcendent Universe to pay him a formal visit. However, Lu Yin and Luo Lao'er had not known who Xie Wu was and had not recognized him, which had caused Xie Wu to harbor ill feelings toward them.

If Zuo Yu had also chosen the Voidforce School, her first day would have turned out wildly different.

Shi Hong had a sizable influence in the Cyclic School and introduced Zuo Yu to everyone in her social circle.

lightsnοvεl "Little Yu, this is Senior Brother Mu Cheng, our Cyclic School’s top disciple. Mu Cheng has already reached the Starseizer realm, and he is also passionate about cultivating Monarch Essence. He’s also acquired an innate gift called Armament Pond from undergoing a wood transformation. He’s someone whom we all look up to." Shi Hong introduced someone else to Zuo Yu.𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝒃𝙣𝓸𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝓶

Upon hearing the introduction, the man named Mu Cheng waved his hands in an embarrassed manner. "Sister Hong is just teasing me. Who here doesn't know that Sister Hong has the greatest mastery of Dragon Flash in the entire Cyclic School? Even a few people from the Central School haven't managed to learn that technique and have asked for her guidance."

The moment that Dragon Flash was mentioned, Shi Hong's expression fell. "Senior Brother Mu Cheng is teasing me. How can my Dragon Flash compare to his swordsmanship? My use of Dragon Flash was easily seen through."

Mu Cheng was surprised. "Your Dragon Flash was seen through? Was it by someone from the Central School?"

Shi Hong did not want to go into detail, but Zuo Yu answered for her. "It was someone from our Transcendent Universe, but he’s originally from a universe with a cultivation civilization. I really don't know how he managed to see through Sister Hong's Dragon Flash."

Mu Cheng's curiosity was piqued. "Interesting. How many moves did he need to see through it?"

Zuo Yu looked at Shi Hong, who revealed a bitter smile. "There's nothing to say about it. He didn't need even a single move."

Everyone was puzzled. Mu Cheng asked, "What do you mean?"

Shi Hong solemnly said, "I mean that I couldn’t even see how he saw through it. He did so without any apparent effort and didn’t even seem to need a single move."

Mu Cheng's expression changed completely. "Did that person come to the Sixverse Academy?"

Shi Hong glanced at Zuo Yu, who nodded. "Yes. He’s already joined the Voidforce School."

"He comes from a cultivation civilization and was able to decipher the Dragon Flash, but instead of joining the Cyclic School or the Three Monarchs School, he went to the Voidforce School? It seems that he’s extremely confident," someone else said.

Behind Zuo Yu, someone else from the Transcendent Universe spoke up. "His name is Xuan Qi. Of the 1,700 people who passed the selection process to enter the Sixverse Academy, Xuan Qi is the only one who got in without participating in that process. He was automatically accepted."

"He got in through a backdoor? It seems that he has quite the backing," someone said disdainfully.

Shi Hong shot a piercing glare at that person, which caused them to immediately duck their head.

Zuo Yu’s brow furrowed as well. It was no surprise that some people would be unhappy with Xuan Qi, but complaining about him in the current situation would only make a mockery of everyone from the Transcendent Universe.

Shi Hong said, "Xuan Qi was able to see through my Dragon Flash without using any moves at all. With that sort of ability, there was no need for him to pass any assessment."

"Wait, Xuan Qi?" someone exclaimed.

Some people nearby began to discuss the name Xuan Qi. Zuo Yu felt rather puzzled, and she exchanged glances with Shi Hong.

Mu Cheng's expression immediately grew serious. "Sister Hong, how many people who entered the Sixverse Academy this time have the name of Xuan Qi?"

Shi Hong looked puzzled. "Just the one."

There were several gasps of astonishment.

Shi Hong asked, "Brother Mu Cheng, what's wrong?"

Mu Cheng smiled bitterly. "Junior Sister, you’ve been entertaining Sister Little Yu and the others and showing them around, so you might not have heard about what just happened in the Sixverse Academy."

"Is there something wrong with Xuan Qi?" Shi Hong asked.

Zuo Yu and the others also grew curious. They had been following Shi Hong around the Cyclic School ever since they had arrived to familiarize themselves with the place. So, they had not heard anything regarding the academy’s current events.

Someone finally stood up and spoke to Shi Hong. "Sister Hong, let me explain."

Everyone looked at the young man as he took a moment to compose himself before speaking. "Xuan Qi is undeniably the most talented genius in the Voidforce School. He managed to endure voidforce energy for more than an hour during his first contact with it, and he even attracted Senior Xu Xiangyin’s attention…"

Everyone fell silent. Shi Hong, Zuo Yu, and the others were dumbfounded. They had not expected “Xuan Qi” to accomplish such a heaven-shattering feat.

Even the people who had already heard the news were just as stunned as when they first heard the story.

Despite there only being two classes of students so far, the talent that Lu Yin had revealed for voidforce energy was comparable to Xi Ji’s. It also greatly surpassed Shao Qingfeng’s, who had once created a miracle in the Voidforce School.

"Xuan Qi has surpassed Shao Qingfeng, who you should already know."

Shi Hong was shocked, and the image of “Xuan Qi” deciphering her Dragon Flash reappeared in her mind. "It's never a good idea to let go of your sword during a fight. Your opponent can easily grab hold of it."

At the time, his words had dealt a huge blow to Shi Hong. There was nothing wrong with what he had said, but who among her peers was capable of catching a sword executing Dragon Flash by someone who had mastered the technique? How could there be no fear of having their hand sliced off?

Even after some time passed, Shi Hong still could not understand how her sword had been caught.

It was unexpected that Xuan Qi had created another miracle almost as soon as he arrived in the Sixverse Academy.

Mu Cheng sighed. "A dragon has crossed the river. A prodigy has arrived. The Sixverse Academy is not going to remain peaceful. I bet that those people in the Central School have already noticed him, which means that things are going to get quite lively."

"I wonder if he’ll also come to our Cyclic School," someone muttered.

The person next to them replied, "Not likely. With that kind of talent, it's very possible that he’ll be taken away by the Voidforce Universe."

"True. That’s in line with the Sixverse Academy’s policy. Maybe the next time we hear his name, he won’t be on the same level as the rest of us."lightsnovel

The gathering started to break apart, but the impact of the name "Xuan Qi" remained fresh in everyone’s minds.

Zuo Yu had never thought that the gap between her and an acquaintance would widen so much so quickly. They had barely even started their journey.

Half a month passed, and then one day, in the Void Ground, a group of people witnessed history being made before their very eyes.

Lu Yin sat on one of the stones for more than three hours.

Exceeding three hours was an indication of crossing the threshold and becoming able to cultivate voidforce energy.

Xue Xiangyin stood a short distance away from Lu Yin, watching with absolute joy.

It had only taken this youth a month, just one month. While this was similar, or possibly a bit longer than the amount of time that Xu Ji had used, Xuan Qi was from another universe, which meant that his talent for voidforce energy was absolutely terrifying.

After more than three hours, Lu Yin’s eyes suddenly opened. He was finally able to observe voidforce energy, and he saw clusters of it floating around. It was clear that each floating stone contained a large amount of voidforce energy.

He looked up to the sky.

The items that were floating around were also enveloped with varying amounts of voidforce energy.

A considerable amount of voidforce energy surrounded the ship that Xiao Fei had pulled down, though the village possessed the most. In fact, the village had so much energy that it filled nearly half of the sky by itself.

Why would a village, a place where ordinary people lived, be a False God? Lu Yin could not understand this.

"Hahaha, Xuan Qi, how is it? Can you see voidforce energy now?" Xu Xiangyin grinned widely. Admiration filled the old man’s eyes.

Lu Yin stood to offer a bow to Xu Xiangyin. "This junior can see it."

"Then tell me, which False God possesses the greatest amount of voidforce energy?"

Lu Yin pointed up at the sky. "The village."

Xu Xiangyin nodded. "Correct. Xuan Qi, you have passed the threshold of the Voidforce School."

Outside the Void Ground, several people quietly swallowed. It had only been a single month, but someone had already passed the threshold. Was there a need for such speed?

Even Shao Qingfeng had needed half a year to reach the same stage, which was considered incredibly fast for anyone from a foreign universe when cultivating voidforce energy.

Luo Lao'er ecstatically yelled, "Brother-in-law, you're amazing!"

Xie Wu, Xiao Fei, and several others exchanged glances, only to see resignation reflected in each other's eyes. The fact that Xuan Qi had crossed the threshold of the Voidforce School in just a month meant that his name would absolutely be recorded down in the Voidforce Universe. He was no longer on the same level as the rest of the students.

Passing the threshold meant that Lu Yin had officially become a student at Sixverse Academy. He could choose to learn the power of another one of the six universes, or continue with the Voidforce Universe’s power.

"Senior, I'm curious about how things are progressing with me being accepted by the Voidforce Universe," Lu Yin said.

Xu Xiangyin smiled. The fact that this was the youth’s first question after crossing the threshold for cultivating voidforce energy made it clear that Xuan Qi truly wished to join the Voidforce Universe from the bottom of his heart. "Don't worry, I have already spoken with Ke Jian. Once you leave the Sixverse Academy, there will be no need for you to return to the Transcendent Universe. You can instead go straight to my Voidforce Universe. We will arrange everything for you."

The old man’s expression suddenly grew solemn. "You will even get the chance to meet Lord Xu."

Lu Yin was overjoyed. "Will I really be able to meet Lord Xu?"

Xu Xiangyin laughed heartily. "Yes, absolutely!"

Lu Yin's breath quickened. This time, he was genuinely excited.

The Sixverse Association had six member universes, each of which had powerful experts who had all reached a level equal to a Progenitor. The most remarkable were the Main Universe’s Three Sovereigns and Nine Sages, as well as their legendary Grand Sovereign. The Voidforce Universe also had their own Progenitor-level powerhouses. Lord Xu was incomparable to ordinary Progenitors, as he was the creator of voidforce energy. The man was a legendary figure and was nearly impossible to meet.

The Voidforce Universe was a member of the Sixverse Association. If they needed the collective power of their entire universe to stand up to one of the Seven Skygods, it meant that their universe was similar to the Three Monarchs Universe and that their strength was somewhat limited. However, if Lord Xu alone was able to stand up to one of the Seven Skygods without needing to rely on any additional power, then his strength was absolutely extraordinary.

This suggested that Lord Xu's strength had actually surpassed an individual Skygod and was comparable to one of the Fifth Mainland’s Three Realms Six Dao.

This level of power exceeded Lu Yin's comprehension, as it was essentially the same as a resurrected God of Death. That ancient powerhouse had been hailed as invincible within the Fifth Mainland, and Lu Yin was eager to meet such an expert.

Even so, it was not yet time for that. If Lu Yin were to meet Lord Xu, Lu Yin’s disguise would definitely be seen through.

Lu Yin offered another respectful bow to Xu Xiangyin. "If I could have an audience with Lord Xu, I will be able to die without regrets."

"Hahaha! Train hard. You’ve already caught the attention of at least one senior, and you might even be accepted as a disciple. Of course, there is also a small chance that Lord Xu himself might take you as his disciple. If that happens, make sure to not forget about me," Xu Xiangyin said with a chuckle.

Lu Yin replied, "How could I ever forget you, Senior? To me, Senior is a mentor for life."

Xu Xiangyin nodded in satisfaction, though a hint of regret could be seen in his eyes.

The old man truly wanted to accept Xuan Qi as his own disciple, but the youth’s talent was far too extraordinary. Xu Xiangyin did not have the authority to make such a decision, as only a few esteemed seniors would be allowed to accept this genius as their disciple. What a pity.

Some distance away, Xie Wu and several others watched as Xu Xiangyin and Lu Yin chatted. The students were overcome with both envy and a feeling of helplessness. Where in the megaverse had such a person come from?

Xu Xiangyin turned around and glanced at the rest of the students. "Leave for now. You can return tomorrow."

The students had no choice but to obey. They were not even allowed to linger outside the Void Ground. The old man was far too biased.

"Xuan Qi, now that you have crossed the threshold and are capable of seeing voidforce energy, the next step is for you to absorb that energy. Only by possessing enough of your own voidforce energy will you be able to summon a False God to fight with…" Xu Xiangyin started to patiently guide Lu Yin.
