YM778.TV Chapter 84: The Competitors
"Hum, it is expected to have such an effect. After all, this can be considered one of the best and top resources of the Academy."
"Well, teacher, when I become an Emperor, I will definitely repay the Academy for doing their best to cultivate me."
Supreme Teacher Qiu Jin looked at his disciples and frowned. Suddenly, he asked, "What made you so happy recently?"
Upon hearing this question, Lin Fan became overly excited, as such, he said:
"Teacher, you should have seen me during the Heavy Water Sect’s competition. None of the participants were a match for me. In fact, none of these Heaven Chosens could take more than a punch from me. If it was not due to the fact that I did not want to attract too much attention, I would have taken less than an hour to beat and suppress all the participants."
"Then, you should have seen the look on these Heaven Chosen’s faces when they looked down on me and my low background, and then, when the competition began, they could not even take a punch from me."
"And then, there were the Elders and Sect Leader of the Heavy Water Sect. They basically begged me to marry their Saintess as a wife. Of course, I’m not complaining about having such beauty by my side."
The more True Monarch Qiu Jin heard about Lin Fan’s experience, the more the frown on his face increased. He looked at Lin Fan and said in a deep voice:
"Do you think that it is something to be proud about to be able to beat all the participants in this trial!"
Upon hearing this question, Lin Fan immediately shut his mouth and lowered his head. From his teacher’s tone of voice, he could tell that he had done something wrong.
There are not many people that Lin Fan respects and fears in this world, but his teacher Qiu Jin is one of them. When he was at the lowest point of his life, it was teacher Qiu Jin who showed up and told him that he was not a waste, but a heaven defying genius born in the wrong place and time.
It was teacher Qiu Jin who opened his eyes to how vast the universe is and showed him the vast amount of potential he has as a person.
It was also teacher Qiu Jin who taught him an unfathomably powerful cultivation method and made him as powerful as he is today.
Teacher Qiu Jin’s voice continue to echoed in the cultivation room:
"Do you think that beating a few weak cultivators in a weak plane is something to be proud and arrogant about?"
"You should know that your plane is nothing but a Middle Thousand World. As such, the highest level of cultivation possible is the Primordial Spirit Realm."
"As for the so-called "Heaven Chosen" you speak of, can these people bear such a heavy title? The majority of them will not even be acknowledged as geniuses in a Greater Thousand World, let alone compare to the genius in the Myriad Emperor World that have the capability to compete for the Heaven Mandate."
Lin Fan held his head down and dared not say anything. However, deep down, he did not completely agree with his teacher. And Supreme Teacher Qiu Jin could also see this fact.
"Seems like you are not convinced. Then, let me show you what kind of people you will be facing in the future."
After saying that, Qiu Jin waves his hand and an image appears in front of him. It was a young man with grey hair and eyes that could pierced through the heart of his enemies and control their fate.
"This person right in front of you is called Wang Wei, he is the young master of the Dao Opening Sect. You should know what this sect represents right?"
"Yes, teacher. The Dao Opening Sect is the most powerful sect of the world you are from and also the main competitor of the Academy."
Qiu Jin nodded and continued:
"This young master is currently considered the greatest threat to all the Heaven Chosen of this generation. Do you know why?"
Lin Fan just shook his head, as such, Qiu Jin continued to explain:
"That’s because of all the things he has accomplished in the past few years. Despite being the young master of such a powerful sect, he did not become prideful and arrogant due to his strong background. On the contrary, he strived to become better than he was."
"With the resources of the sect, he designed a trial for the sole purpose of honing and polishing his Will and Dao Heart. And he succeeded. No, he more than succeeded. From the information that the Academy just received, this young master Wang Wei actually became a Young Emperor. Do you know what a Young Emperor is?"
"No, teacher, I do not know."
"A Young Emperor is a young cultivator that has the Will and Dao Heart comparable to a Great Emperor. And this young master accomplished this even before he started cultivating!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan’s face became shocked. Even in his world, there have been countless rumors and legendary deeds left by Great Emperors. Furthermore, his teacher took a long time to describe how mighty and powerful Great Emperors are.
As such, Lin Fan knows that anything related to an Emperor is considered extraordinary beyond comparison. And this Wang Wei already has a Dao Heart compared to such a supreme being.
"Shocking, isn’t it? I can tell you that is just the tip of the iceberg. This future Sacred Son of the Dao Opening Sect created his own Heavenly Physique."
"That’s impossible! Teacher, you told me special physiques were gifts granted by Heaven and Earth to a few chosen individuals!"
This time Lin Fan was beyond shocked. One of the thing he must pride himself with is the fact that he has the #1 Heavenly Physique. He believed that he was chosen and destined to be a Great Emperor. But now...
"This is what all the cultivators of our world once thought. But young master Wang Wei proved that we were wrong. His special physique was acknowledged by Heavenly Dao and now he has the #4 Fate Puppeteer Physique."
"Now, all the factions of the Myriad Emperor World--including the Academy--are studying how he accomplished such a thing. If the Academy succeeds, then we would not have to worry about having Heaven Chosen in the future."
Lin Fan looked at his teacher with a frown in his face. He suddenly realized the gravity of the situation he was in right now.
"You thought that it was over? No, there is more to him than this."
After saying this, Qiu Jin waved his hand and an image appeared in the room. It was the scene of the Dao Opening Sect being bombarded by Divine Punishment Thunder. Just by looking at the scene through a recorded image, Lin Fan could feel the horror of these thunder.
"Did...this young master Wang Wei caused this?"
"Yes. On that day, all the cultivators in the world received a message from Heavenly Dao that the young master Wang Wei had committed blasphemy and needed to be stopped."
"After countless scholars of the Academy analyzed the situation, they came up with a highly probable theory. Do you remember "the barrier" you felt after entering the 12th Layer of the Body Refining Realm?"
Lin Fan just nodded mechanically. As such, Supreme Teacher Qiu Jin continued:
"We believe that Wang Wei has found a way to successfully break that barrier."
After hearing this, Lin Fan’s face became ugly. He remembered that barrier, however, he assumed that this was the limit that all cultivators could reach.
However, this Young Master Wang Wei was not only unaffected by such a mindset, he actually created a way to accomplish such a thing deemed impossible by countless cultivators.
Seeing his disciple’s face, True Monarch Qiu Jin sighed, then continued:
"Do not think that Wang Wei is the only person that you need to worry about. There is still the #2 Heavy Axe Physique, Crown Prince Ji Song. He seemed to have suffered at the hands of Sacred Son Wang Wei during the Spirit Road Trial."
"However, according to the spy of the Academy, a Supreme Realm powerhouse of the Great Zhou Dynasty used a powerful secret technique to rebuild his foundation for him. His foundation may not be too far from you who have refined the Chaos Qi."
’Supreme Realm powerhouse, that’s the same realm as Teacher Qiu Jin,’ thought Lin Fan, whose face was becoming more and more ugly.
"In the Eastern Continent, two powerful Heaven Chosen have appeared. One of them is the #3 Seven Desires Six Emotions Physique, Su Ya. She is currently the Saintess of the Yin Moon Palace."
"Maybe you do not know about the Yin Moon Palace. This sect has cultivated 7 Great Emperors, and all of them were women. On top of that, all their Great Emperors had one thing in common: they all had the Seven Desires Six Emotions Physique."
"Another Heaven Chosen was discovered by the Sword Casting Villa. All the academy knows at this time is the fact that he is called Jian Wushuang and has an Innate Sword Bone--which is a talent on part with or even superior to the #15 Exquisite Sword Heart Physique."
Teacher Qui Jin saw some confusion on his disciple’s face, so he explained, "Maybe you do not know what the Exquisite Sword Heart Physique means. Have you met the Headmaster of the Academy?"
Lin Fan nodded his head. When he started cultivating, he did meet the headmaster through a long distance communication formation. He gave him the feeling of being kind, benevolent, yet very powerful.
"The headmaster was a born sage of his generation. Although my cultivation is more powerful than his, even I respect him--not only due his mind and bearing, but also his strength. However, in the last generation, he was completely suppressed by the person with the Exquisite Sword Heart Physique."
"Oh, I forgot to mention that the person with this physique is called Wang Tian. He is currently the Sect Master of the Dao Opening Sect, and the father of Wang Wei."
Lin Fan suddenly felt a heavy pressure weighing down on him. Then, cold sweat started falling down from his back. All of these scary guys are going to be his future opponent, and yet, he was happy to be able to suppress a bunch of the so-called "geniuses" from a small world.
However, True Monarch Qiu Jin was not over.
"In the Western Continent, there is a Heaven Chosen born with the power of reincarnation."
Qiu Jin sighed. "The Dao of Reincarnation is one of the most powerful and mysterious Dao in existence. It is on par with the Dao of Chaos, Dao of Time, Dao of Fate, and the Dao of Dusk."
"And these are just the Heaven Chosen that have made an appearance so far. Many of them are still hiding and preparing to make their debut. So, my disciple, the path ahead of you is long and arduous. It’s not time for you to be complacent yet."
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan clenched his hands firmly and secretly made a decision. He will work hundred or a thousand times harder and will not lose to anyone.
