Chapter 783: A Glimpse Of Future (1)

While heading toward Great Xia City, Su Yu cultivated silently.

He was forging his body. He continuously absorbed heavenly source qi in secret as he cultivated. This was an era where he couldn't do anything without strength. And his growth was still too slow for his liking.

He did not lack resources. He did not lack cultivation methods. He only lacked situations where he danced on the edge of death. Only by tempering himself through these dangers would he be able to rapidly grow and learn. He had to pursue death in order to grow and traverse the path others would take decades or centuries to reach.

Seclusion could help him grow, but that would take a long time. He couldn't wait any longer. Great Ming could still protect him now. Just like back then, Great Xia was capable of protecting the multiple character faction. But because of Xia Longwu, they were finding themselves increasingly incapable of doing so.

If a day arrived when Zhu Tiandao needed to affirm his dao as well, would Great Ming still be so confident they could protect him? Ultimately, nobody was more reliable than himself.

Seated on his cloudrush horse, Su Yu's eyes were shut in cultivation. Nobody disturbed him when they noticed that.

Finally, when Su Yu finally opened his eyes, Zhou Hongbo said, "Brother Cui...are you traveling for the sake of tempering yourself and entering the Cloudbreach Realm?"

This Cui Lang did not seem like he was only traveling for the sake of having fun. Instead, it looked more like he was also using the trip to temper himself.

Su Yu smiled, "Yes. I have been a ninth-stage Skysoar for a few years. I am only a step away from the Cloudbreach Realm. My willpower is still not strong enough. The moment my willpower reaches the corresponding level, I will be able to advance."

He laughed and said, "Brother Zhou, you must be one of the top geniuses in the Knowledge Seeking Academy. Your cultivation is similar to mine yet you're probably younger than me."

Zhou Hongbo said, "I'm nothing special in the academy. Yes, I am a ninth-stage Skysoar, but I'm far from reaching the Cloudbreach Realm."

"How old are you, Brother Zhou?"

"Twenty-eight."

Su Yu exclaimed in admiration, "With your strength and your age, you will be considered a top genius in any prefecture. You're probably comparable to the likes of Huang Teng and Qin Fang."

Zhou Hongbo merely smiled, but he did not deny that.

Liu Han, the silent woman from the War Shrine Academy said, "In the current Human Realm, only people like Su Yu and Shan Xiong are qualified to be called geniuses. Compared to them, we're still lacking."

In fact, this was why Zhou Hongbo had been so respectful with Cui Lang. For him, a ninth-stage Skysoar was nothing. He was also a ninth-stage Skysoar himself, but he was only twenty-eight. Not even the Cloudbreach Realm was that far away from him. As a holy land student, his strength was also far above others at the same cultivation level.

"Are there a lot of people in the two holy land academies?"

Su Yu asked another question. Seeing that Zhou Hongbo was starting to frown, he smiled, "Brother Zhou, are there any talented and strong beauties with no powerful background there?"

"..."

Zhou Hongbo was getting exhausted from speaking to this person. Beside him, Liu Han snorted coldly and said, "Most students there are either Sunmoon descendants or Invincible descendants. The rest will be incredibly talented ones or those with family in important positions."

For example, Wan Tiansheng was officially a Mountainsea. But since he was a principal, the juniors from his family were allowed to enter a holy land academy.

Zheng Yunhui was also one such example as his grandfather was a principal. The juniors of regular Mountainseas would rarely be given such an opportunity.

Su Yu did not seem impressed as he said, "I'm not afraid of Sunmoon descendants. There are so many Sunmoons around and their descendants are everywhere. In terms of status, is any of them as noble as me?"

Su Yu grinned, "Little girl, don't get all cocky in front of me. I'll be honest. Maybe Invincible descendants deserve some respect from me. And that is only applicable to those that are less than five generations apart from the Invincibles. An exception can be made for those who have caught the attention of Invincibles. Anyone else won't be as important as me. Why are you feeling so proud?"

Su Yu looked incomparably arrogant as he spoke those words. Zhou Hongbo merely smiled silently. Liu Han's expression changed, but she also stayed silent. The surrounding youths felt very comfortable hearing that.

That was especially true for those who were not even Sunmoon descendants. Exactly. Why were those holy land students so arrogant? What was the big deal about them? Cui Lang might not be the descendant of an Invincible or a Sunmoon, but he was the student of a Sunmoon and a grandson-in-law of a ninth-stage Sunmoon. In terms of status, he was absolutely not lacking when compared against the so-called Sunmoon and Invincible descendants.

Su Yu curled his lips and continued, "I was only asking some questions out of curiosity yet you're here feeling all superior. Tsk tsk. Are all holy land geniuses this ignorant? What's even the big deal about the holy lands? Those holy lands were jointly established by the various prefectures. Without these prefectures, these so-called holy lands won't amount to anything."

"Cui Lang!"

Someone shouted in warning.

It was the Mountainsea elder from the Knowledge Seeking Realm. He frowned as he said, "Some words will lose your life once spoken. Do not talk wildly."

Su Yu merely shrugged, "My apologies. People of Great Ming are quite straightforward when speaking. I'm already used to this. I was speaking the truth. The holy lands will be nothing without the Invincibles of the various prefectures. Our prefect said that the holy lands are nothing. Not even saints will dare to provoke Great Ming. Ah, sorry, I'm not talking about you guys. Brother Zhou, don't misunderstand me. In short, Great Ming doesn't care too much about the holy lands."

These holy land members found his words hard to accept. But they didn't say anything. They knew very well that this was how the various prefectures thought about them. The holy lands were jointly established by the alliance of humanity. With Invincibles propping the two holy lands up, everyone would be willing to show them a little bit of respect.

Without Invincibles...well, respect would be much harder to come by. But even with Invincibles around, some people might still not care about the holy lands. For example, Great Han King was the current Invincible watching over the Knowledge Seeking Realm. As a result, the people of Great Han started disregarding everyone from the holy land. Since their ancestor was the one watching over the holy land, why should they care about the holy land? Respect? The holy land wouldn't have a shred of dignity without their ancestor.Rêađ latest cha/p/ters on no/v/e/l(b)in(.)c/o/m
