Chapter 2711: Qualitative Change

"It’s important to let yourself go? Senior, you know a lot!" Lu Yin praised. As he spoke, he was reminded of Xiao Fang, who was a member of the Lost Clan. Could Xu Wuji have learned so much about the Lost Clan from Xiao Fang?

Xu Wuji became very upset. "Don't interrupt! Just listen:

"I’ll just give you a few examples so that you understand. There was once a person who sang on the first day of the Shangsan Festival. His singing was bad, really, just horrible, yet he succeeded in changing his card.

"There was another person who read an article he had spent a long time writing, and he was also able to successfully change his card.

"There was even a person who tried to find love during the Shangsan Festival, and even that actually worked. Do you know what he did to try to find love?" Seeing Xuan Qi’s confusion, Xu Wuji’s face twitched, but he still continued, "He showed off his muscles..."

Lu Yin's eyes went wide. "What?"

"That guy flexed in an attempt to attract girls. Some of the dumbest people are able to attract a card. As he was flexing, a card flew over and he succeeded."

Lu Yin was speechless. That had really happened? Cards could actually be drawn to such things?

"Someone made animal sounds during a Shangsan Festival.

"Someone else spent their time cultivating.

"During one Shangsan Festival, someone told stories of everything that he had done to scheme against others over the years, and while he managed to change his card, he ended up being hunted. Everyone he had plotted against cooperated to hunt him down.

"The bottom line is that you need to let yourself go and express your true self. The more you do that, the better. Ignore any nonsense the Lost Clan tries to tell you. As far as I’m concerned, they’re just stingy with their cards, and don’t want to see any outsiders get them. Just think about it for yourself!"

With that, the man left.

Lu Yin stared blankly at Xu Wuji's back and called out, "Senior, do you have a card?"

Xu Wuji stumbled, nearly tripping, and then quickly vanished without saying a single word.

Lu Yin then understood; Xu Wuji had to be one of the people he had just mentioned.

Interesting...

"Head to the Sixverse Academy. People are supposed to gather there," Xu Wuji’s called back.

Lu Yin took a deep breath. The Sixverse Association spread across multiple parallel universes. He had never been to the Lost Clan’s universe, but it was time to make a visit.

He left as soon as he settled a few things.

Xuan Qi was not able to go straight to the Sixverse Academy, so Lu Yin asked someone to contact Xu Xiangyin, who then took him to the small universe. Lu Yin was not the only one from the Bureau, as Xu Ji and Xu Yue also joined him, similarly intending to go to the Shangsan Festival.

Xu Xiangyin was thrilled to see Xuan Qi again, as the old man genuinely regarded Xuan Qi as a grandson.

Lu Yin had also not forgotten the Void Morphora. "Senior, when will you go to the Endless Frontier?"

Xu Xiangyin smiled. "Soon."

Lu Yin said, "Let me know before you leave so that I can see you off."

Xu Xiangyin nodded. "If that’s what you want, we’ll talk then."

As the two chatted, Xu Xiangyin led Xuan Qi and the others to the Sixverse Academy.

It had already been nearly three years since Lu Yin had left the academy, and he had not returned once in that time. He had no idea how Wendy Yushan and the others had been doing, but he was certain there were many new people in the academy.

Lu Yin was aware that the Sixverse Academy had enjoyed a massive influx of new students, but even so, the numbers he saw were surprising.

There were hundreds of thousands of students currently attending the Sixverse Academy, at the very least, and they came from both the member universes of the Sixverse Association, as well as other parallel universes.

Xu Xiangyin showed Xuan Qi around.

As they were heading to the Lost Clan’s territory, it only made sense that people would gather in the Lost Clan School of the academy.

Xu Xiangyin delivered Xuan Qi to the entrance of the school, and then left.

Lu Yin entered the Lost Clan School on his own. When he had first transferred to the school, there had been no one at all at the entrance, but this time, there were many people in the process of transferring between schools, and everywhere, people were discussing the Shangsan Festival.

"Xuan Qi?" someone called out.

Lu Yin looked over and smiled at Jiang Xiaodao.

The young man glared at Lu Yin. "You’re also here? Why? Are you going to the Lost Clan for the Shangsan Festival?"

Wendy Yushan was quite similar to Bai Qian in certain ways. Both women were beautiful and gave off the impression of a warrior, and they even both used the sword.

Lu Yin watched as Wendy Yushan walked by without greeting anyone at all. He secretly admired her, and felt that sending the three women to the Sixverse Academy had indeed been the right decision. Wendy Yushan had already become a peak Enlighter. If she had made so much progress, then what of Ling Gong and Zhuo Daynight?

Could they have already become Envoys?

If so, how had they had their breakthroughs? Had they needed to return to the Origin Universe?

As soon as Lu Yin thought of Ling Gong, he saw the woman.

The moment Xu Yue noticed Ling Gong, she attacked. "I've waited a long time for this!"

Ling Gong looked over, and her spear swept out. With a shout, Xu Yue's voidforce energy was forced back.

Xu Yue was stunned; how was this possible?

Lu Yin's eyes grew large. Sure enough, Ling Gong was an Envoy. She had once been one of the Fifth Mainland’s Ten Arbiters, and if not for the Time Poison that had infected the Origin Universe for a time, all of them would have become Envoys long ago.

When Ling Gong had been an Enlighter, she had been a Realmbreaker capable of facing Envoys. After becoming an Envoy herself, she was able to truly demonstrate just how impressive the former Ten Arbiters were.

Xu Yue had also improved since she had last faced Ling Gong, but her progress could not compare with the White Knight.

Ling Gong had experienced a qualitative change.

The last time the two woman had fought, even if Ling Gong had won, it had been a strenuous victory. At this moment, Xu Yue was easily overpowered. The strength that Xu Yue was so proud of was unable to overwhelm Ling Gong, and even Xu Yue’s cultivation caught up to Ling Gong’s and voidforce puppets allowed Xu Yue to wield even greater amounts of voidforce energy, it would still not be enough to overpower Ling Gong.

This was proven when Xu Yue’s blue phoenix appeared. When the voidforce puppet came out, Ling Gong’s Skycastle appeared as well, and it instantly overpowered the phoenix, which let out a wail.

Xu Yue was forced back further and further, her face growing pale. How was this possible?

Lu Yin was not surprised, as Ling Gong deserved to be one of the Ten Arbiters.

Lu Yin had struggled for years to catch up to the Ten Arbiters, let alone surpass them. He still clearly remembered how difficult it had been for him to fight Lan Si or Nightking Zhenwu.

"Little Yue, step back." Xu Ji took a step forward and attacked.

No matter how unwilling Xu Yue was to accept the current outcome, she had no choice but to retreat. She was clearly no match for Ling Gong.

The White Knight looked at Xu Ji, and her eyes blazed with the desire to fight. This was the opponent she had wanted.

Boom

The Wu Tian Stone Disk shot out and clashed with the Skycastle, while Ling Gong’s spear thrust out. The weapon shot forward like a dragon, and Xu Ji responded by mobilizing enough voidforce energy that the sky churned and clouds were blown back.

Ultimately, the voidforce energy gained an edge.

Xu Ji's cultivation surpassed Ling Gong’s, and his voidforce energy put enough pressure on Ling Gong that she struggled to breathe. It was no different from when she had faced off against Xu Yue when Ling Gong had still been an Enlighter.

Just as Lu Yin was about to stop the fight, another surge of voidforce energy swept over from the distance, and it instantly separated Ling Gong and Xu Ji.

The pressure felt from this new energy suppressed everyone. This person was a peak Void Morphora.

Everyone looked over to see Xu Lie slowly walk over, a cold expression on his face.

"You are not a student of the Sixverse Academy." Xu Lie stated with a cold voice.

The area had already filled with the Lost Clan School’s students, who had been excited to see the battle. They were not often able to see matches of such a high level.

Xu Ji said, "This junior is Xu Ji, and alumnus of the Sixverse Academy."

Xu Lie looked at the young man. "I know who you are; Xu Ji, from the Bureau. However, you’ve already left the Sixverse Academy, and should not get involved in fights here."

Ling Gong spoke up, "I attacked first."

Xu Lie looked over at Ling Gong. "Are you a student in the Lost Clan School?"

"No."

"Then what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be heading back?" Xu Lie asked with a frown.

Ling Gong glanced at Xu Ji and Xu Yue before finally glancing at Lu Yin right before she turned and left.

She had come mostly to check if Lu Yin had arrived, but the unexpected battle had prevented the two of them from even speaking to each other.
