"We have completed this mission and earned some points. I have decided not to exchange these points for anything related to Mystical Arts; instead, I will exchange them for some Spirit Stones."
Ziyu and the others completed this robbery mission and received a thousand points each after turning in the task.
Spirit Stones are natural crystals of Spiritual Energy or new materials formed when a large amount of Spiritual Energy attaches to certain materials.
With Spirit Stones, absorbing the Spiritual Energy within can increase the cultivation speed.
"If that's the case, before the Championship, I might reach the Fourth-Level Mystic level, or even higher." Ziyu still did not fully understand what others meant by breaking through a bottleneck; Ziyu believed that as long as enough energy was absorbed, advancement would come naturally.
However, for others, there is still the issue of a bottleneck; while absorbing energy is straightforward, breaking through to the next level poses challenges.
"Fourth level... Ziyu, how are you so abnormal? You're progressing so quickly." Lan Bing'er complained, "I came here several months earlier than you, yet you've surpassed me."
When Ziyu first arrived, Lan Bing'er had said she wouldn't let Ziyu hold her back.
"I don't know what's going on either. Ye Ling, don't you have a bottleneck?" Ziyu turned to look at Ye Ling.
Ye Ling shook her head: "I don't have a bottleneck either. It seems that after absorbing a certain amount of Spiritual Energy, it automatically condenses into Spirit Essence."
"This is strange..." Kewenshi said. "Aside from you two, I haven't seen anyone who can directly break through in their cultivation."
Because breakthroughs have a certain level of difficulty, some people may remain stuck in the later stages of a certain level throughout their lives without being able to advance. It's like Liao Village Chief, who has always been a quasi-Transcendent; it seems he has no hope of advancing to Transcendent in this lifetime.
"By the way, what is life like for those kids over there?" Ziyu suddenly asked. There are still two kids that Ziyu knows over there.
"The kids are doing well; they cultivate every day with guidance and regularly receive good materials to support their bodies..." Kewenshi knew some details.
The potential of children is greater than that of adults, so the Mystic Practitioner Academy places more emphasis on the growth of children, while adults are guided in a simpler class format.
"That makes me feel relieved. The two children I know are over there, and I will go see them when I have time," Ziyu explained.
"I see..." Kewenshi nodded.
Next, Ziyu separated from the group and exchanged for some spirit stones.
"These spirit stones contain a lot of energy. Each stone costs me two hundred points, and I only have three stones. If they really have a significant effect, it will be worth it." Ziyu returned to her residence, looking at the three spirit stones she had obtained, each about the size of a fist.
"These spirit stones are said to be condensed from Spiritual Energy. Although they are not large, their quality is very high." Ziyu scratched her head and picked up one.
"The method of absorbing Spiritual Energy also applies to spirit stones." Ziyu's mind stirred as the surrounding Spiritual Energy began to gather towards her, and the stone in her hand emitted a faint glow.
Absorbing Spiritual Energy is done through the pores, while other parts absorb the Spiritual Energy in the air. The palm absorbs the energy from the spirit stone.
"It really works." Ziyu felt delighted as the Spiritual Energy coming from her palm was significantly more than that from other parts, allowing for rapid absorption.
"At this rate, it wouldn't be impossible to become a Level Five Transcendent before the Championship," Ziyu thought joyfully.
"Huh? It's already used up?" Just as Ziyu was immersed in the pleasure of rapid progress, she discovered that one of the spirit stones in her hand was already depleted; only two hours had passed.
"Using up the spirit stone is like this," Ziyu spread her hand, and after absorbing its energy, the useless powder scattered on the ground.
"If that's the case," Ziyu checked the energy situation in her Dantian, "I still need three more to become a Fourth-Level Mystic..."
Ziyu still has two pieces left, it seems Ziyu is going to exchange all the points for Spirit Stones.
The more Spirit Essence in the body, the higher the limit of spiritual power, which means longer combat time and greater usage of spiritual power... Moreover, it can also strengthen the body and improve health.
"Alright, that's settled. Before the Championship arrives, I must advance to Fourth-Level Mystic!"
~~~~~~~~~~~
In the blink of an eye, it was November, and by this time, the weather had already turned quite cool.
"The Championship finals are about to begin. This time, there are changes to the rules of the Championship. In addition to a ranking for each Squad, there will also be individual rankings," Lan Bing'er had already received the news.
"The ranking for Squad is still based on points, with a token involved. However, the difference is that each Squad only has one token, and the base score is ten points. Each time, only half of the score can be deducted."
"And to prevent multiple deductions, there are specific rules. For example, if A Team takes points from B Team, they must wait until tomorrow to deduct points from B Team again. Each day, a Squad can only deduct points once."
"The individual ranking is determined by the instructors. They will monitor the competition throughout and rank based on performance. This means that even a seemingly insignificant weakling could end up in first place due to outstanding performance."
"Uh... this competition is quite peculiar," Ziyu said helplessly.
Creating a ranking system could be so complicated.
"This is what The First Strongest said. Everyone dares not be negligent; this competition happens every year... Of course, it's limited to us adults; children are still in training," Lan Bing'er explained.
"I see. So what exactly does The First Strongest intend to do..." Ziyu asked in confusion.
"This world is nominally known as the Demon Realm, a place for the dead to be reborn and reincarnated. It is rumored that the goal of the First Strongest is to return to the Original Universe," Lan Bing'er shook her head. "But this claim is merely a rumor."
Ziyu was taken aback. Return to the Original Universe?
It should be noted that Transcendents are incredibly powerful; if a Transcendent were to arrive in the Original Universe, it would surely lead to another disaster!
"However... the Original Universe is currently facing the Zerg Catastrophe, so even if a Transcendent went there, they would likely perish," Ziyu thought again.
Even Cang Jian did not suggest that Ziyu grow stronger to find a way back, but rather mentioned finding the Solar Divine Essence...
The First Strongest, Divine Dragon, is elusive; he only occasionally surfaces to say a word, and no one knows what he thinks or what he intends to do.
"This is indeed somewhat strange," Ziyu shook his head. "These matters are beyond our consideration; we should focus on preparing for the competition..."
~~~~~~~~~~
"I believe everyone is already aware of the competition rules, as the news has been released for some time. I won't elaborate further but will emphasize a few points..." The academy's principal, Lin Gu, stood on the high platform, speaking clearly and loudly.
However, what he spoke of was nothing more than safety and harmony, friendship first, and the competition rules.
"Our instructors will be observing your situations in real-time and will make evaluations at the end. Is there anyone with questions?" Lin Gu scanned the area; there was no response nearby. "Very well, it's settled then."
A passageway appeared before everyone once again; this passage was much larger than before, and it was impossible to see what lay on the other side.
"Upon entering the passage, you will be randomly teleported to a location in the world. This location is random; of course, you won't be sent directly into a dead end... The competition lasts for one month; once everyone has entered, we will start timing," Lin Gu stated.
This world is different from the original Class Competition world; here, there are truly desperate situations, and they are extremely lethal... When those who enter are injured to the brink of death, they will be teleported out to receive medical treatment, so no one actually dies.
"In a month's time, there are many ruins, desperate situations, and adventures in this world. Plus, students can compete with each other; it's a great opportunity to develop strength," Ziyu thought.
Ziyu glanced around the square, where students were gathered in large numbers... over a hundred classes, with three Squads in each class... these are truly Mystic Warriors.
"Random teleportation; where do you think we will be sent?" Finally, it was Ziyu's Squad turn to enter the world.
The scene before them became hazy, filled with a sense of chaos, and all perception of the outside world vanished... Most importantly, Ziyu could not feel any spiritual energy here.
"This place is like an isolation chamber. Everyone, don't panic; this is to help you adapt to the new world because the environment here is somewhat different from before," Lin Gu's voice rang out.
Soon after, all the students entered this space.
"Now we will begin the simultaneous random distribution. Note that since it is random, two Squads may appear in adjacent positions. At that time, you will have to figure it out," Lin Gu said with a hint of playfulness in his voice.
"Figure it out..." Ziyu felt speechless.
Next, everyone experienced a wave of dizziness as the scenery before them changed dramatically...
"This is..." Ziyu was quite surprised, widening his eyes to sense the Nearby. The Spiritual Energy still existed but felt very familiar.
"It's the feeling of the Original Universe..." Having been in this world for only a year, Ziyu was still quite familiar with the environment of the Original Universe, and he immediately recognized this special sensation.
After arriving at the Endless Continent, the environment there felt very different to Ziyu, but he managed to adapt... It was only this feeling that he truly felt accustomed to!
"This feeling is really great..." Ziyu thought to himself, taking a deep breath.
"Where is this?" Ziyu suddenly came to his senses and looked towards Nearby, noticing that his teammates were all gazing in one direction.
"What are you looking at?" Ziyu swayed over, trying to find a good angle.
"What the hell is this..." Ziyu stared ahead, and to his surprise, it was a magnificent palace, made of materials that looked extraordinary.
"This is a ruin; we are lucky to have been teleported directly here..." Ruan Ling also seemed a bit dazed.
You should know that these ruins often contain great opportunities.
"Our Squad's strength will definitely surge because of this ruin..." Ruan Ling said.
"Where's Bing'er?" Ziyu looked around Nearby and realized that Bing'er was missing.
"I'm back!" Bing'er's cheerful voice rang out from behind. "Just now, I took a round and didn't find any other Squads or signs of other Squads having been here."
It turned out that Lan Bing'er was light and agile, and Ruan Ling had sent Bing'er to scout ahead.
"Alright then, let's seize the opportunity and go for it!" Ruan Ling laughed heartily, clearly in a great mood.
