Chapter 203: Li Yang's Breakthrough! The True Value of the Spirit Fruit
Chapter 203: Li Yang's Breakthrough! The True Value of the Spirit Fruit
"My teacher has always valued practical combat performance over theoretical talent."
Fang Hai spoke slowly, "In history, there hasn't been a case where someone reached the first rank and became a first-class candidate."
"It's like my teacher rarely bestows treasures upon his disciples directly. Instead, he lets us venture out to temper ourselves through life-and-death trials."
"Out of his nine children, six died in various life-and-death trials... Li Yuan is still very young and inexperienced, so it's hard to predict his future." Fang Hai shook his head, "Even if I were to speak to my teacher about it, it wouldn't make much difference."
"The second-class Martial Deity Heritage slot is the best we can do to help Li Yuan."
"From now on, it's up to him to show what he's capable of." Fang Hai continued, "If he can soar in the virtual battles of the Global University Martial Arts Tournament and maintain excellence even at the Source Warrior stage, he'll naturally be able to obtain the first-class slot, or even the special-class slot."
"Back then, I started from the third-class slot and gradually rose through the Martial Deity Heritage, until I gained my teacher's recognition and became his disciple." Fang Hai said.
"Alright." Star Sovereign Bai Shan smiled, "You're Li Yuan's principal, so it's your decision."
"But..."
"Why haven't you broken through yet?" Star Sovereign Bai Shan looked at the light surrounding Fang Hai and couldn't help but ask, "Do you have to force it? The situation in the Frostbite Star Realm is complex and unpredictable. No one knows when that thing will appear, and delaying isn't a solution... Do you really trust your teacher's judgment that much?"
"If you break through earlier, your foundation will transform, and your progress will be much faster than it is now." Star Sovereign Bai Shan said.
"I trust my teacher." Fang Hai smiled, "His judgment has never been wrong."
"Your teacher is indeed more powerful than me." Star Sovereign Bai Shan shook his head, knowing Fang Hai's personality, "Alright, I'll issue the official document regarding Li Yuan soon."
"Then I'll be going now."
The light in the aircraft faded, and silence returned.
"Skysoar Level Spirit Power, Li Yuan?"
"I hope I won't let this second-class slot go to waste."
"Martial Deity Heritage..." Fang Hai closed his eyes and muttered, "If I want to enter the third region and catch up to my teacher, I must take this step. The path of the mysteries of heaven and earth is truly difficult."
"It's indeed challenging."
...
Li Yuan, far away in Jiangnan Province, was unaware that he had directly obtained the 'second-class slot' for the Martial Deity Heritage.
Li Yuan had already finished his meditation and continued cultivating the 'All Heavens Stars' technique.
Origin Power surged into his body, flowing through his Star Vessel and continuously merging with his body.
This made his physique even stronger.
"The Skysoar Level Spirit Power has greatly improved my cultivation of the 'All Heavens Stars'. I'm looking forward to awakening my second Star Vessel; it should be even faster then."
Every few days, Li Yuan would enter his Life Star Space and attempt to light up more Vital Stars.
Little by little, they accumulated.
As more Vital Stars awakened, Li Yuan's spiritual consciousness sensed that the day of awakening the second Star Vessel was not far off.
Suddenly, a loud roar echoed, and a powerful mental shockwave swept through the surroundings.
"Hmm?"
Li Yuan, who had been meditating, suddenly snapped out of his trance. His powerful spiritual consciousness had been sensing the surroundings, and he immediately felt this mental shockwave.
"Is it my teacher?" Li Yuan's eyes lit up with joy, "It's Teacher Li's aura."
"Could it be that Teacher Li has broken through?" Li Yuan wondered.
...
Another hour passed.
"Li Yuan." A voice resonated in Li Yuan's mind.
A mental transmission.
"Teacher, has your Spirit Power broken through?" Li Yuan asked, as they were communicating through their minds while being separated by distance.
"Haha, yes!" Teacher Li's voice was filled with joy, "I've broken through! I've finally broken through, and it's all thanks to you spending most of your wealth on this... But the most important thing is this Soul Infusing Ancient Spirit Fruit of yours. It's truly invaluable."
"Let's talk about it when we meet. I'm coming out now."
Soon, Teacher Li, who had finished his cultivation, arrived at the martial arts venue where Li Yuan was.
"Teacher." Li Yuan stood up and greeted him, sensing the faint yet powerful mental shockwave emanating from Teacher Li's body.
This was because Teacher Li had just broken through and couldn't perfectly control this mental power yet.
"Congratulations, Teacher." Li Yuan smiled.
"Thank you." Teacher Li's smile couldn't hide his joy, as the breakthrough to Skysoar Level Spirit Power was indeed a great joy for him.
For him, with the transformation of his soul, the hope of reaching the fifth level of perfection, or even the sixth level, was ten times greater.
Skysoar Rank Warrior? It's no longer a dream.
"Li Yuan, if I become a Skysoar Rank Warrior in the future, it'll be thanks to you." Teacher Li couldn't help but say.
"Teacher, it's because of your deep accumulation." Li Yuan shook his head, "Your Spirit Power was already at the second rank limit, and it's just a Soul Infusing Ancient Spirit Fruit."
"Even if you didn't get it from me, you could've gotten it elsewhere." Li Yuan said.
"No!"
"This Soul Infusing Ancient Spirit Fruit of yours is very special." Teacher Li's eyes shone with light, "Although it can't compare to a fourth rank treasure, it's definitely a top-tier third rank treasure."
"It contains some divine essence... And with that, I broke through." Teacher Li was very happy.
Li Yuan listened intently, recalling the scene when he obtained the three Soul Infusing Ancient Spirit Fruits.
The three fruits he acquired were indeed very special.
"The Soul Infusing Ancient Spirit Fruits you have are extremely valuable." Li Yang looked at Li Yuan, "Initially, I was planning to compensate you with some more Blue Star Coins, but now it seems that just giving you some coins won't be enough."
"In addition to what we agreed upon for your uncle and aunt, I'll give you another treasure." Li Yang smiled.
Whoosh!
Li Yang flipped his palm, and a purple pill appeared, emitting a faint, peculiar fragrance.
"Purple Life-Saving Pill?" Li Yuan instantly recognized the pill, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Yes."
"Liu Jing told me that you should have given this pill to him," Li Yang said with a smile, "This one will serve as your life-saving treasure, and I'll give you another one as a backup."
"Teacher, didn't you say it was very precious?" Li Yuan couldn't help but ask.
"Indeed, it is precious," Li Yang nodded, "Normally, if an Essence Warrior manages to become an Elite Essence Warrior, the Seven Stars Alliance would sell it to us at an incredibly low price of 1 billion Blue Star Coins."
"But there's only one chance for that."
"After that, even if an Elite Essence Warrior wants to purchase it, it would cost 5 billion Blue Star Coins, and they can only buy it up to five times in their lifetime." Li Yang smiled, "Do you understand what I mean?"
"Can it be reproduced?" Li Yuan asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, the Purple Life-Saving Pill does have a stable production, but it's also extremely precious," Li Yang explained, "5 billion Blue Star Coins for a chance at life... We Elite Essence Warriors are still willing to pay that price."
"As for ordinary Essence Warriors, most of them don't have the money to buy it, so they are unaware of its existence."
Li Yuan nodded slightly.
The gap in strength between Beginner and Intermediate Essence Warriors is not too significant, and it can be somewhat compensated for with numbers.
However, the difference between Advanced and Elite Essence Warriors is overwhelming; they are simply not on the same level.
Elite Essence Warriors possess superior physical qualities, Origin Power, and Spirit Power.
The key lies in their skills! A Fifth Level skill against a Fourth Level skill is a complete domination.
"5 billion Blue Star Coins is too expensive," Li Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.
Adding up the previous agreement, Li Yang had offered more than 6 billion Blue Star Coins to purchase the Soul Infusing Ancient Spirit Fruit.
Li Yuan believed that his teacher's wealth was astonishing.
However, Li Yuan estimated that the maximum profit was probably around 200 million.
"Take it, it's not expensive," Li Yang smiled, "For me, Spirit Power breakthrough is priceless... Now that I can break through, I have a chance to reach the Skysoar Realm."
"If I can become a Skysoar Level, a Purple Life-Saving Pill is nothing," Li Yang said, "If you don't take it, it will hinder my cultivation, and I won't be at ease."
With Li Yang's words, Li Yuan couldn't refuse and accepted the Purple Life-Saving Pill.
In reality, after witnessing the effects of the Purple Life-Saving Pill, Li Yuan understood that he indeed needed it.
It could truly save his life in critical moments.
...
Soon after, Li Yang, Li Yuan, and Shi Xiao boarded a large aircraft bound for Kunlun Martial University.
Since it was a chartered flight, Li Yang wanted to have a private conversation with Li Yuan, so he arranged for Shi Xiao to sit on the other side of the cabin.
The interior was quiet.
"I estimate that you'll graduate by the end of your junior year, maybe even sooner," Li Yang said with a smile.
"What?" Li Yuan was taken aback.
So soon?
"Do you think the school can still help you in any way?" Li Yang smiled.
Li Yuan fell silent.
"You should be able to sense that when I met you this time, I didn't treat you as an ordinary student," Li Yang sighed, "For a normal elite student like Shi Xiao, a Life and Death Expedition might earn them a few million Blue Star Coins."
"Therefore, the school's various rewards are still important to them."
"But what about you?" Li Yang looked at Li Yuan with a smile, "Your strength is already comparable to an ordinary Essence Warrior."
"Your money-making ability, combined with your powerful Spirit Power, even surpasses Advanced Essence Warriors in certain aspects," Li Yang added.
Li Yuan was speechless.
Indeed, after their journey to Mingxu Star Realm, the wealth he acquired had rendered the school's cultivation plan and the Martial Temple's contract somewhat meaningless.
A few thousand Blue Star Coins in cash rewards? They didn't matter anymore.
Currently, Li Yuan's wealth was close to 1.5 billion Blue Star Coins, and even someone like Wan Qinghe might not have such a large sum.
"Normally speaking."
"The highest-level treasure the school can offer is something like the Star Core Crystal, a rare heavenly treasure," Li Yang smiled, "One unit of Star Core Crystal is worth approximately 200 million Blue Star Coins."
"This is the limit; more precious treasures are beyond the school's reach."
"Even Starfire Martial University and Starfield Martial University, their top students cultivate for the chance to compete for a Flying Star Slot." Li Yang sighed, "But you're different."
"Your growth over the past month has exceeded our expectations, even surpassing what Dean Hai and I anticipated for an entire year."
"With your rapid progress, you'll soon become an Essence Warrior and embark on the Flying Star journey. After receiving the inheritance, you'll likely venture into various Star Realms." Li Yang looked at Li Yuan, "Kunlun Martial University won't be able to hold you back for long."
"Treasure your remaining time on campus."
Several hours later, the aircraft slowly descended onto the auxiliary airport of Kunlun Martial University.
