"Is it finally here?"
In the Fighting God Tower, a young man in cloud-embroidered clothes slowly turned around, and behind him, a man appeared. This man's cultivation was very poor, only the seventh level of the True Martial Realm, but he had persisted until now.
"Are you Wu Chen?"
The young man took a look at Wu Chen and recognized him. This man was well-known among all the disciples.
While he was looking at Wu Chen, Wu Chen was also looking at him. Strangely enough, he felt that this man's face was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before, but he could not remember where.
"Excuse me, have we met somewhere before? Why do I feel like you are familiar?"
Unexpectedly, the young man nodded: "Yes."
Wu Chen was even more surprised. He looked the man up and down and recalled it carefully in his mind. Suddenly, he was startled and he remembered.
On the first day of entering Beichen Academy, he saw a young strong man in the Qinyuanchun cafeteria. At that time, the other party's cultivation was only at the ninth level of the Zhenwu Realm. Half a year later, the other party had already broken through to the peak of the ninth level of the Zhenwu Realm. He was only one step away from reaching the Xingji Realm and becoming a true disciple. If he could take this step, then this person would be able to break through the Xingji Realm and become a true disciple.
However, this last step is very difficult to cross. Even a genius may be stuck and unable to break through the Star Realm and become a true disciple of their Beichen Academy with noble status.
"It seems that you remember it."
Seeing Wu Chen like this, the young man knew that he must have remembered it.
"However, you really shocked me. When I first met you, you were only at the third level of the Zhenwu Realm. Only half a year has passed, and you have already reached the seventh level of the Zhenwu Realm. Your cultivation speed makes all of us feel ashamed."
In half a year, his cultivation level had only risen from the ninth level of the Zhenwu Realm to the peak of the ninth level of the Zhenwu Realm. As for the rumored Xingji Realm, he had no idea at all. He didn't know how long it would take before he could successfully break through.
Those who are qualified to enter their Beichen Academy are all talented. As long as they are willing to work hard and practice unremittingly, given enough time, they will be able to break through and reach the peak of the ninth level of the Zhenwu Realm.
However, the Star Realm is different. For many young geniuses, this realm is a mountain that cannot be crossed. If there is not enough talent and good fortune, it will take a very long time for a peak True Martial Realm Nine Heavens expert to break through the Star Realm. It is even possible that one will be stuck at the peak of the True Martial Realm Nine Heavens for the rest of his life, unable to break through. This is why the Star Realm experts are so rare.
Their Beichen Academy has hundreds of thousands of disciples, but the number of true disciples is only hundreds, and has never exceeded a thousand. Other super sects are similar to them, or even worse than their Beichen Academy. For example, the worst super sect in their Dongxuan Region only has dozens of true disciples.
Among all the super sects in their Dongxuan Territory, perhaps only the Taiyi Sect has more than a thousand true disciples. True disciples are a symbol of the sect's strength, which is why the Taiyi Sect is so powerful. Just from the number and quality of the true disciples, we can get a glimpse of this.
Therefore, once one reaches the Zhenwu realm, talent is more important. Those with outstanding talent can quickly break through the realm and become stronger rapidly, while those with poor talent are unable to break through for a long time. Even if they have a high starting point, it is useless because of their limited qualifications and they will sooner or later be overtaken by latecomers.
There is no doubt that Wu Chen is one of those people with outstanding qualifications. In half a year, he has been promoted four levels. Such a terrifying speed of cultivation can probably only be achieved by people with special physiques.
Wu Chen chuckled. Only he knew why he could be promoted so quickly. It was because he devoured and refined the dragon soul of Canglong in the Canglong Secret Realm. The strength of Canglong was extraordinary, and the power of his dragon soul was extremely strong. Wu Chen was able to absorb it, so his cultivation was able to be promoted so quickly. If he had practiced alone, it would be a huge question whether he could reach the sixth level of Zhenwu Realm now.
"I heard that you boasted that you wanted to get a top ten ranking?"
Wu Chen nodded: "Yes."
For him now, getting into the top ten of this sect disciple competition is as easy as taking something from a bag. It does not require any effort at all.
However, his current goal is not to be in the top ten, but to get first place in this sect disciple competition.
"The top ten, this is not that easy. You have to beat everyone else here to advance to the top ten."
The young man said slowly that he didn't even dare to think about being in the top ten, because this was Beichen Academy, which was full of masters, and there were many people who were stronger than him. Even among the peak masters of the ninth level of the True Martial Realm, there was a large gap in strength between each other, which was not so easy to make up.
Wu Chen looked at him and said word by word; "I will defeat them one by one."
The young man laughed: "Since you want to defeat everyone, then start with me, Kang Yang. I hope you can realize your wish."
Kangyang is his name.
"Take action."
Kang Yang's feet shook, and an extremely strong force burst out from his body, like a volcanic eruption, rushing straight up. The terrifying power spread throughout the entire space, forming a violent storm that swept across the entire space.
Wu Chen's expression gradually became solemn. Judging from the aura of Kang Yang, it was not something that ordinary people could possess. Even a strong man in the ninth level of the True Martial Realm could not compare to him. Facing a strong man of this level, he did not dare to be careless at all.
“It’s finally time to start.”
Outside, many people turned their eyes to this side. This time, the opponent Wu Chen met was at the peak of the ninth level of the Zhenwu Realm, the person who had the greatest hope of breaking through the Xingji Realm and being promoted to a true disciple.
They were full of anticipation for this battle. Originally, they were extremely disdainful of Wu Chen, thinking that he was just a clown. However, Wu Chen used his fists and brilliant record to tell them that he was completely different from ordinary people and that he really had the strength and it was not just empty talk.
"Come on, Wu Chen."
Zhao Peng and the others were very happy. They cheered for Wu Chen and supported his fight.
