Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation-Chapter 617 - 254 Not the First_2

At that time, the National Master Cheng Yuxiao had also reacted, chuckling inwardly.

He had forgotten the ways of the Sumeru Palace.

Criticism in words but maintaining appearance on the surface.

"I misspoke, misspoke," Cheng Yuxiao quickly apologized.

"My duty is to ensure the fairness of the Lougong Battle, I must act, but the new star gate needs a little time," said Dai Guanwen.

A few moments later, Meng Yanhui directly transferred eight thousand strands of Starlight to Dai Guanwen, the amount after taxes, before Dai began to act.

In the quiet room outside the Star-picking Tower, Xu Jin, who had slept for 15 minutes, awoke punctually.

His Divine Soul was completely rejuvenated.

The consumed Star Power was fully restored.

Amidst a bright glow from the Mingji Star Pattern, Xu Jin saw the National Master outside.

"How is it?"

Seeing Xu Jin awake, the National Master stepped in and asked.

"National Master, I have slain the Sand River King of the Fourth Tier Ninth Layer and twenty-four other Fourth-tier experts from the Sand River Star Domain, as well as hundreds of Third Tier. The rest should pose no danger for Junior Sister Ji and the others.

If all goes well, within six days, we can surely establish a new Puppet King and completely conquer the Sand River Star Domain," Xu Jin said.

"Good!"

National Master Cheng’s face showed delight.

In comparison, the long-term value of completely conquering a Third Tier Star Domain was not less than moving up a place in the Lougong Battle rankings.

But either way, it would allow Da Chen to thrive for a time.

A Third Tier Star Domain could continuously supply a large amount of Third and Fourth Tier Star Jade, along with various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

"Did you manage to obtain the Star Will?" the State Preceptor asked.

"I did."

Xu Jin didn’t hide it, but took it out directly.

Cheng Yuxiao let him put it away, "Refine it later after this is over, your strength will increase again, just keep it safe for now," he said, and then frowned, adding,

"I just confirmed with the Star Spirit, it records anyone’s acquisition of Star Will, it cannot be erased. The two Earth Series Sand River Hearts you obtained this time, after the battle, cannot be concealed and will become public knowledge.

You might become the target again.

One is still okay.

Two, not only Fifth and Sixth Tier experts, but even Seventh Tier experts will likely covet them."

"This... I can’t just discard what I’ve obtained, can I?" Xu Jin said with a wry smile.

"I’m wondering, you’re going into the Third Tier Purple Wind Star Domain next, you’re bound to get a Thunder Feather Heart, right?" asked Cheng Yuxiao.

"Perhaps more, I estimate, as long as luck isn’t too bad, I could emerge from the Purple Wind Star Domain in a day, and even visit one or two more Star Domains," Xu Jin said.

"In that case, this time, you’ll at least get five or six pieces of various types of Heaven and Earth Star Will," the National Master said.

"Roughly, depending on luck."

"It seems your brilliance, since the Lougong Battle, can no longer be hidden," Cheng Yuxiao said.

"Worse comes to worst, I’ll hole up in the National Taoist Institute and engage in diligent practice," Xu Jin said with a laugh, "The Heaven and Earth Star Wills need to be taken. Otherwise, I might not get the chance later."

"Alright, take them without worry.

Since it can’t be hidden, then fight freely.

Let your brilliance shine!

No need to hold back anymore!" stated Cheng Yuxiao.

Hearing this, Xu Jin was overjoyed, "National Master, really?"

"Really!"

"As for your future safety issues, I’ve already made a detailed preliminary plan, here’s the plan, you can check it first," said Cheng Yuxiao as he handed Xu Jin a jade tablet.

"You can also study it and see if anything needs to be improved or prepared for earlier, I will also continue to refine it based on changes in the situation.

Then we can decide how to proceed based on the circumstances," said Cheng Yuxiao.

Xu Jin immersed his mind in it, glancing just once, he was somewhat surprised.

It was no wonder he was the National Master.

He had devised such a bold plan.

Executed like this, it could really resolve his safety issues.

But then again, Xu Jin himself also needed to prepare early.

"Let’s go, the star gate is almost ready."

A few moments later, Cheng Yuxiao and Xu Jin reached the second floor of the Da Chen Star-picking Tower Main Building.

Clearly, Dai Guanwen’s preparation for this newly opened star gate was insufficient; it had been 15 minutes and still not ready.

Taking advantage of this pause, Xu Jin chatted with the Star Spirit.

"How are the points?"

"Based on the Starlight messages returned so far, the highest score belongs to Lin Xun from Tianyang Star Hall," the Star Spirit said.

"Higher than mine?" Xu Jin frowned.

He had slain a Fourth Tier Star Domain King and acquired the Heaven and Earth Will of two Third Tier Star Domains.

Just those alone amounted to 1500 points.

How could anyone score higher than him?

"Lin Xun has killed the Star Domain King of the Fourth Tier Star Domain he was in and also obtained the Heaven and Earth Will of a Fourth Tier Star Domain," the Star Spirit said.

Hearing this, Xu Jin was quite surprised.

"The Star Domain King of a Fourth Tier, that must be the existence at the peak of the Fifth Tier Gathering Battle, right? And not just one fifth-tier expert, how did this Lin Xun from Tianyang Star Hall manage it?" Xu Jin wondered.

"According to the information sent back by his Star-picking Order, it’s roughly related to the emblems, sixth-tier emblems, he used at least three pieces," said the Star Spirit.

In an instant, Xu Jin realized.

This Lin Xun had been at the peak of the Fourth Tier Star Condensation a year ago. If his Divine Soul Cultivation also broke through to the fourth tier, then he could possibly open the Sumeru Space.

This way, it was entirely possible to bring in sixth-tier emblems.

So, it was completely feasible.

As for the fourth tier of Divine Soul Cultivation, it was also highly likely.

The First True Inheritor of Tianyang Star Hall last year, who had captured a Gold Star, with the resources of Tianyang Star Hall, it wouldn’t be difficult to forcibly boost a disciple’s Divine Soul Cultivation to the fourth tier.

Two to three hundred Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pills could achieve it.

For an individual, getting dozens of Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pills is very difficult, but not for a dominant power.

Now, as long as they completely conquer this Fourth Tier Star Domain, they can break even.

If that’s the case, Lin Xun merely killing a Fourth Tier Star Domain King and gaining the Heaven and Earth Will of a Fourth Tier Star Domain would be worth two thousand points.

It’s normal for him to surpass Xu Jin.

However, Lin Xun probably wouldn’t leave the current Star Domain and enter another for battle, right?

Sixth-tier emblems are extremely precious.

He’s already used up three.

But Xu Jin can’t take this lightly.

For an individual, three sixth-tier emblems are extremely valuable, but not necessarily for a dominant power.

Even Da Chen has the full support of Kou Jing, the Great Emblem Master.

Not to mention Tianyang Star Hall.

"Hmm, well done."

Xu Jin praised, making the Star Spirit extremely happy, nearly overjoyed.

Its time was too dull, having nothing else to do but read books and watch people come and go in the Star-picking Tower, unable to leave.

Xu Jin had given him the first dozen episodes of ’Journey to the West,’ which he had already memorized.

"First, I’ll reward you with five episodes, you watch those slowly, keep a good watch for me, perform well later, and I’ll reward you more."

As he spoke, Xu Jin squeezed the jade containing content for five episodes in his palm. The starlight trembled slightly and then disappeared.

"Done."

On the other side, came the voice of the National Master Cheng Yuxiao, the Star Gate for the Third Tier Purple Wind Star Domain was ready.

"State Preceptor, I’m going in," Xu Jin said before stepping toward the Star Gate.

"Alright, safety first."

At the same moment, Cheng Yuxiao’s voice also echoed in Xu Jin’s ear, "Remember, if there are no encounters, don’t actively pursue killing the disciples of Cangming Star Hall.

But if trouble finds you, or a conflict arises, refrain from acting unless necessary.

Once you act, kill all witnesses, don’t be merciful or leave any hidden dangers.

Although there are no restrictions in this session of the Lougong Battle regarding this, it’s still better not to give others something to criticize if fighting happens in an Alien Realm."

"State Preceptor, I remember. My primary goal is to slay the newly emerged Purple Wing King of the Purple Wind Star Domain and secure that strand of new Thunder Feather Heart."

Once the communication ended, Xu Jin, holding the Time Measuring Jade given by Dai Guanwen, stepped directly into the temporary Star Gate of the Third Tier Purple Wind Star Domain and disappeared momentarily.

Cheng Yuxiao and Meng Yanhui, watching Xu Jin’s vanishing figure, were full of expectation.

The Fourth Young Master of Sumeru Palace, Dai Guanwen, looking at the disappearing figure of Xu Jin, revealed a contemplative expression.

This young man was quite extraordinary.

And the act of coming from a Third Tier Sand River Star Domain then venturing into another Third Tier Purple Wind Star Domain was also quite extraordinary.

Not something that ordinary talented disciples could do.

Must make a record.

It should be able to bring him quite a few benefits.

Although he is the Fourth Young Master of Sumeru Palace, his expenses are indeed very large.
