Asura Sovereign IX

by Shian Jeen

  In the Institute Principal’s manor, Principal Feng Yang was lounging in the main hall, savoring tea.

  “I question how that kid did. Third, or 4th?” His soft voice sounded in the hall, muttering to himself. Others might not have known Wang Biaoyuan’s true strength, but he did.

  Late Second Order God Realm!

  He held high hopes for Huwang Xiao, understanding just what a freak of a genius his fourth disciple was, however, as high as his hopes were, and as talented as his disciple might be, he wasn’t naive enough to believe that Huwang Xiao was a late-Second Order Wang Biaoyuan’s challenger.

  As for Gudu Leng, along with his Second Order God Realm strength and him achieving the hundredth level of the Solitary God’s Infinitude, his strength wasn't any weaker than Wang Biaoyuan’s. Hence, the reason why he informed Huwang Xiao that striving for top three was sufficient.

  At this true point, he saw his eldest disciple Liu Yun enter the primary hall in great haste.

  His eldest disciple, Liu Yun, had always been relaxed and steady, never had this disciple shown such a side before him, stoking Insitute Principal Feng Yang’s curiosity.

  “What is it? All hurried and flustered.” Feng Yang spoke.

  “Master,” Liu Yun saw his Master just as he walked into the main hall, quickly greeted Feng Yang. However, he had yet to figure out how to inform his Master the details of the time’s outer disciple evaluation. Just occasions ago, when he heard the result, he was stunned at that moment before he thought of informing his Get better at and hurried over.

  Feng Yang frowned slightly at Liu Yun’s silence, “The result is out?”

  “Yes, Master, the very best ten position result is out.” Liu Yun respectfully answered.

  Feng Yang shot a glimpse in Liu Yun’s path, his voice a little somber, “What did your Junior Apprentice-brother get? Fourth place or fifth place?”

  Liu Yun’s expression immediately became just a little strange, bracing himself with a deep breathing, trying his best to speak in the calmest firmness he could muster, “Replying to Master, Junior-Apprentice sibling took first place!”

  Feng Yang nodded sagely, yet to fully register what.

  “What?! First place? You said your Junior-Apprentice brother took first place?” Moments later, Feng Yang finally reacted. His hand halted in midair, holding the teacup as his mind jerked up with a disbelieving manifestation looking at Liu Yun.

  Liu Yun nodded seriously, excitement shining in his eyes, “That is so, Master. 4th Junior-Apprentice brother came out on top, furthermore, he defeated Wang Biaoyuan with just one single move!”

  Defeated Wang Biaoyuan with just one move! Late-Second Order Wang Biaoyuan!

  The cup in Feng Yang’s hands slipped, falling to the floor with a noisy thud, but it was totally ignored by Feng Yang and Liu Yun. Feng Yang’s eye widened as his brain buzzed.

  “Fourth Junior-Apprentice sibling not only broke through to God Realm, he even advanced to Second Order God Realm.” Liu Yun continued while quivering with enjoyment, “The power of Fourth Junior-Apprentice brother’s one strike could crack the Hidden Dragon Industry stage, comparable to a Third Order God World!”

  Cracked the Hidden Dragon Arena stage with one hit!

  The buzzing in Feng Yang’s brain grew more intense.

  “After Fourth Junior-Apprentice brother defeated Wang Biaoyuan with one strike, it terrified Gudu Leng so much that he dared not challenge.” Liu Yun continuing excitedly.

  What was said from then on didn’t enter Feng Yang’s ears. To him, the world got all of a sudden gone quiet. Moments later, suddenly, Feng Yang exploded in thunderous laughter, unbridled, to the idea of forgetting oneself.

  At this moment, Feng Yang felt he was so fortunate to receive such a peerless genius as his disciple. Only as of this very second do he realize, this 4th disciple’s talent significantly, considerably exceeded what he previously assumed. It was far more horrifying.

  This fourth disciple had given him a surprise, a great big surprise!

  Half a day later, the external disciples top a hundred rankings were announced.

  Huwang Xiao defeating Wang Biaoyuan in one move, terrifying Gudu Leng to the point of not daring to problem spread like a wild tempest, blowing to every corner of the Black Tortoise Galaxy.

  Shocking!

  Ancestor level characters, and patriarchs of super forces, first rank powers were all shocked!

  Three years from half-step God Realm to Second Order God Realm! Furthermore, with strength comparable to another Order God Realm! This had gone beyond the range of imagination of most people.

  After Huwang Xiao received the first place rewards and returned to the manor, Feng Yang had stared at him for what seemed like half a day. Causing goosebumps to crawl out on Huwang Xiao’s skin before he managed to find an excuse, allowing him to make a run for it.

  Ch.562

  Huwang Xiao’s glorious win over a late Second Order God World Wang Biaoyuan during the outer disciples' assessment elevated a great wave of surprise throughout the galaxy’s forces for almost a month before it eventually calmed down.

  In this one month’s time, Huwang Xiao simply stayed inside the Institute Principal’s manor to cultivate and did not come out of the manor.

  After advancing to Second Order God Realm, Huwang Xiao pointed out that enough time he could stay in Hell had increased to roughly a day. When his fight qi depleted, the recovery period was now reduced to slightly more than an hour’s time. He was more than delighted at this discovery.

  While he was still at maximum late-First Order God Realm, he could only stay for just two to three hours, however now, his cultivation time in Hell had increased seven to eightfold. Before this, he needed one day and one night’s time to recover his exhausted battle qi, but now it was reduced to only hour.

  This greatly increased the effectiveness and speed of Huwang Xiao’s cultivation.

  In the beginning, Huwang Xiao estimated that he’d need 3 years to break to Third Order God World, now however, in at most two years, probably not even 2 yrs, he could step into Third Order God Realm.

  Days passed, approximately two months passed since the outer disciples' assessment.

  On this particular day, Huwang Xiao ended his routine cultivation.

  ‘I should have my own courtyard now.’ Huwang Xiao thought to himself.

  Even though the spiritual energy in his Master’s manor was abundant, it was irrelevant to Huwang Xiao, for the spiritual energy in Hell was by far much purer and higher grade. Most importantly, it wasn’t really convenient for him to cultivate here on a long-term basis.

  He didn't want to expose the secrets on his body at this time, this included his Get good at Feng Yang. For instance, the Dragon Pearl, Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s presence, or that he could summon a gateway to Hell, entering a higher world surface to cultivate at any time.

  Hence, Huwang Xiao decided to move out from his Master’s manor.

  Every Dark Warrior Institute’s inner disciple could have their individual courtyard. He had been another Order God World and the first place winner in the external disciple evaluation, he was more than qualified to be promoted to an internal disciple.

  In the Black Warrior Institute, before an outer disciple could be advertised for an inner disciple, they had a need to meet two conditions; one, reach the God Realm in cultivation, and two, being placed within the top thirty in the outer disciple assessment.

  Having decided, Huwang Xiao exited the Institute Principal’s manor, once again heading toward the Supreme Harmony Hall to collect his inner disciple robe and identity token.

  The journey was a short one.

  “It’s Huwang Xiao!”

  Huwang Xiao’s appearance in the Supreme Harmony Hall immediately triggered a commotion among the disciples that came to pick up and report tasks. Their eyes zoomed onto Huwang Xiao.

  “Did this Huwang Xiao really beat Wang Biaoyuan with a single move? I noticed that Wang Biaoyuan’s a
past due Second Order God World and those top late-Second Order geniuses aren’t his opponents!”

  Outer disciples that didn't watch the assessment voiced their doubt and suspicion. Indeed, without witnessing the event with one’s own eye, merely hearing about it by word of mouth, hardly anyone would believe. It wasn’t a secret that Huwang Xiao was simply a half-step God Realm three years ago.

  “It’s almost certainly some exaggerated gossips, it is unbelievable enough he defeated Wang Biaoyuan, saying that he did it in a single move is just too fake.”

  Huwang Xiao walked in to the hall, disregarding all the noise around him. He went to the side hall in charge of distributing the inner disciple identification tokens and robes.

  When the person in charge, Elder Su Fa, found Huwang Xiao, he was overly polite. After Huwang Xiao returned the external disciple identity token and robe, he personally handed Huwang Xiao his new internal disciple identification token and robe. He even individually walked Huwang Xiao right out of the side hall.

  In the entire history of the inner disciples, Huwang Xiao was probably the only one to get this degree of courtesy.

  After departing the Supreme Tranquility Hall, he did not immediately check out his own courtyard, but returned to the Institute Principal’s manor to see his Master of this matter.

  At first, Institute Primary Feng Yang disagreed to let Huwang Xiao moving out. Even though Huwang Xiao was marketed to inner disciple and acquired his own courtyard, the religious energy there couldn't compare to his manor. He worried that it would have an adverse effect on Huwang Xiao’s cultivation.

  However, seeing that Huwang Xiao had decided, Feng Yang no more insisted.

  “Fine then.” Institute Principal Feng Yang relented, “Still, you can come here anytime to practice. If you encounter any problems in cultivation, you can also come ask me anytime.”

  A warm feeling spread over in Huwang Xiao’s heart. To his knowledge, even the Eldest Senior Apprentice-brother Liu Yun, Second Senior-Apprentice sibling and Third-Senior Apprentice-sister didn't have the privilege to come over and ask their Professional for guidance at any time, much less cultivate here.

  “Yes, Master.” Huwang Xiao respectfully complied.

  Institute Primary Feng Yang’s mouth opened, attempting to say more, but in the end, he merely said, “Good, if there’s nothing at all else, you can go.”

  Huwang Xiao saluted properly and retreated out.

  Leaving the manor, Huwang Xiao made his way to the Misty Rain Mountain Range, where all the inner disciple's courtyard were located.

  The Misty Rain Mountain Range was on the northern corner of the Black Warrior World, a long distance from the Central Region. Based on Huwang Xiao’s full velocity of soaring, he used an entire day’s time to arrive at the hill range.

  Standing up in the environment and looking down from afar, one could see the peaks of the Misty Rainfall Mountain Range, which were shrouded with ethereal pillows of mist that appeared as if soft rain.

  Orderly buildings lined the peaks of the Misty Rain Mountain Range, close to twenty or thirty thousand in number.

  Initially, Huwang Xiao thought that the number of internal disciples would only be a few thousand despite the large number of outer disciples, but he found out that the amount of Dark Warrior Institute inner disciples was close to a staggering 20 thousand people. It had been a couple of days ago, and it truly gave him a shock.

  But he quickly figured it out, any one of the Black Warrior Institute’s external disciples was a skill. Though it may be difficult for others to break through to God Realm, for them, the difficulty was much lower.

  Moreover, once one broke into the God World, their natural lifespan increased exponentially, with years of accumulation, it was nothing strange that there would be twenty thousand internal disciples.

  Huwang Xiao’s cultivation courtyard was arranged on one of the higher peaks, where the spiritual energy was denser and ample. Thus, the cultivation courtyards located on the peaks were the most ideal.

  Generally, the cultivation courtyards of newly promoted inner disciples would be arranged closer to the foothills, but Huwang Xiao was positioned on the peak. Apart from him obtaining first place in the outer disciple assessment, he also dipped in the Institute Principal’s light, receiving some extra benefits.

  Inside a flicker, Huwang Xiao flew to one of the peaks, reaching it in a few breaths’ time. There have been twelve courtyards on the peak, and Huwang Xiao found his quick enough.

  “Yard No.1” Huwang Xiao glanced toward a courtyard shrouded in dense religious energy and strolled over. This was the courtyard organized for him, but when he reached the door, a frown appeared on his brows.

  Because he noticed that the array formation was activated, teaching that there is already someone living inside.

  What's happening?!

  Do he make a blunder?

  He looked up, above the primary door. Written in three big historic characters, it obviously mentioned that this was Yard No.1. Was his backyard occupied by another? Furthermore, that person was presumptuously cultivating inside!

  Ch.563

  Huwang Xiao snorted coldly. He couldn't wait to see which grand persona was inside, with the guts to take over the courtyard arranged for him. Thinking of this, Huwang Xiao’s finger directed at the void. Instantly, a powerful energy shot out.

  Rumble~! A thunderous rumble echoed in the air, sending a rippling pattern across space.

  This sudden roaring noise alerted the inner disciples cultivating in the nearby courtyards, and all of them emerged to see that which was happening. Of course, it also alerted the ‘great persona’ currently cultivating in Huwang Xiao’s Backyard No.1.

  The restriction array around Lawn No. 1 glimmered open as a disciple wearing the same inner disciple robe walked out. A high son with red hair and charming features walked out from the courtyard.

  As soon as this red-haired young man walked out, a sharp glint flashed across his eyes, staring daggers at Huwang Xiao.

  “Who is this kid? Looks like someone who has just been promoted to internal disciple.”

  “A fledgling that has just been promoted to inner disciple dares to run completely up to the mountain peak, moreover, disturbing our cultivation. Such lawlessness, is he tired of living already?

  Realizing Huwang Xiao, the inner disciples that arrived began taking turns to reproach Huwang Xiao. The atmosphere immediately became noisy.

  The peaks of the Misty Rain Mountain Range were mostly occupied by those outstanding geniuses amongst inner disciples, their strength undoubtedly represented the crème de la crème of the crop. In fact, the mountain maximum areas were written off as a restricted area to other internal disciples, thus, no average inner disciple dared to step a foot in the top areas, afraid they would anger these top geniuses on a rotten luck day and finish up missing an arm or leg, or even both.

  These top geniuses usually secluded themselves in closed-door cultivation, one of the reasons why non-e of these visited watch the external disciple assessment a few days ago, explaining the reason why none present could recognize Huwang Xiao.

  The red-haired son with devilish charm, Li Dufeng, have been glaring coldly at Huwang Xiao since he walked out of the courtyard, “Little punk, you’re new here? Don’t you know the guidelines of the Misty Rain Hill Range? Newly advertised disciples are not allowed to come up to the peak!”

  “Misty Rain Mountain Range’s rules?” Huwang Xiao repeated with indifference. “I really don’t know. I only know that the Black Warrior Institute does not have such guidelines in place, also, this Yard No.1 was allocated to me by the institute. Move out now and apologize, I'll not pursue this matter.”

  All the older inner disciples were left in a daze for another at his words.

  Nobody expected that a new internal disciple would behave so arrogantly, not only he demanding Li Dufeng to go out, but even telling Li Dufeng to apologize? Did they hear right?

  Li Dufeng was
acknowledged as one of the very best ten inner disciples. Although he ranked at quantity tenth, his power left little question in everyone’s thoughts.

  “Has this punk eliminated freaking mad? His brain growth stunted? A recently promoted internal disciple wants Li Dufeng to move out and apologize on top of that? Will he believe courtyard really does participate in him just because of the little family background behind him, or because the institute organized a mountain maximum Backyard No.1 to him?!”

  “Among the inner disciples, which one doesn’t have some family background? Inside the rates of inner disciples, backgrounds are insignificant. Here, one talks with their fists, the peaks on Misty Rainfall Hill Range are occupied by the strongest internal disciples.”

  “A few days ago, didn’t they say that a kid from Gudu Family was also arranged to a maximum courtyard? But that Gudu Family child tactfully conceded that lawn and went to cultivate in one of the yards in the mid-mountain area.”

  “This punk is dead for sure!” The encompassing disciples watched coldly in undisguised mocking.

  Li Dufeng viewed Huwang Xiao, a sinister sounding chuckle via his lip area, “Little punk, it looks like your backing’s quite big to have a mountain top cultivation courtyard arranged for you, but so what? I’m sure you’ve heard, here in the Misty Rain Mountain Range, backgrounds are useless, everything depends on the size of your fist. Because of the fact that you’re a newly marketed inner disciple who's ignorant about the rules, cripple your own two arms and kneel, performing one hundred noisy kowtows, then you can roll to the foot of the hill. In your entire life, don’t even dream of stepping a feet on this peak again.”

  Cripple your own two hands!

  Roll down to the base of the mountain!

  Huwang Xiao’s appearance remained the same, “Is that so?” Then, his expression flipped icy, “Primarily, I could forget about this matter if you just moved out and apologized, however now you should cripple your own two arms, can get on your legs and kowtow a thousand times, you'll be able to move right down to the foot of the hill, otherwise….” He did not continue, however, the clear gleam in his eyes said it all.
