A huge light beam shot up into the sky. It could be clearly seen within the radius of a hundred miles. Everyone could feel a familiar horrifying oppression from the light beam. They had felt it from their elders when they had advanced to the Sovereign-level.

This meant that the one who possessed the light beam had successfully advanced to the Sovereign-level.

Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong were on one of the mountains in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy. They lifted their heads and looked perplexed as they watched the light beam.

“This guy is abnormal,” Shen Cangsheng said with a wry smile. He was filled with admiration for Mu Chen, but at the same time, he could not take it lying down. When he had first met Mu Chen, Mo Xingtian was seeking to kill him. Within three years, Mu Chen had way surpassed him and entered the Sovereign-level before he did.

Li Xuantong nodded in agreement. He felt more deeply about Mu Chen’s progress than Shen Cangsheng. In order to get out of the three rounds with Li Xuantong when they first met, Mu Chen had to put in a lot of effort. He had thought that Mu Chen was not good enough for Luo Li back then.

However, within three years they had seen with their own eyes how outstanding Mu Chen was and how rapidly he had progressed. Li Xuantong had to agree that Luo Li had good taste. Previously, when Luo Li had left with Mu Chen, Luo Tianshen was not very pleased with him. Now that Li Xuantong had seen his progress, he knew that one day, Luo Tianshen would change his view of Mu Chen, just like he had.

This youth was able to surprise people with his wonders.

“I don’t think Mu Chen will stay in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy for long,” Shen Cangsheng suddenly said. He sounded a bit sad. He had known Mu Chen for some time, and he had a good impression of him.

Li Xuantong looked at Shen Cangsheng and asked, “What about you?” He knew that Shen Cangsheng was proud, and he would not be tied down and stay in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy for long.

“I will go into seclusion so that I can enter the Sovereign-level. When I have attained it, I will wander around the Great Thousand World as well. Who knows? I may meet Mu Chen there. I would like to spar with him, given the opportunity, and see who is more powerful,” Shen Cangsheng said with a smile. He was looking forward to the day he could spar with Mu Chen.

Li Xuantong smiled and said, “Let’s do it together. I think I may advance to the Sovereign-level earlier than you.”

“Hahaha, it is not easy to surpass me. Do you think that you are Mu Chen?” Shen Cangsheng burst out into laughter.

“We will see.” Li Xuantong smiled and looked at Shen Cangsheng warmly. He had considered Shen Cangsheng an opponent with whom he could measure his strength and improve himself. As for Mu Chen, he was a scoundrel. It would be best to get rid of him. Li Xuantong did not want to keep receiving blows from him.

…

In the main hall of the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy, Northern Sea Dragon, Chief Tai Cang, and Hall Master Mo You lifted their heads and looked at the huge light beam. They looked pleased with Mu Chen. His achievements during the past three years were a rare case in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.

Hall Master Mo You said with a sigh, “This boy is powerful. It will be good if he can continue to stay in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy.”

Northern Sea Dragon looked angry and scolded Hall Master Mo You. “You are short-sighted and ruining his future.”

Hall Master Mo You’s face darkened after being scolded. He said awkwardly, “It was just a casual remark.”

Chief Tai Cang laughed upon seeing this. He looked amused and said, “Mu Chen has great potential, but the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy is not able to help him develop it. He belongs to the Great Thousand World.

“If Mu Chen continues to stay with us, his strength will definitely increase, but he will not become a real Sovereign. Mo You, do you believe that in the future when Mu Chen returns, not only us, but Brother Northern may not be match for him?”

Upon hearing this, Mo You’s face changed. He had not expected Chief Tai Cang to think so highly of Mu Chen.

Northern Sea Dragon stroked his beard and looked calm. He knew what Chief Tai Cang had said could be possible. This youth… had great potential. Most importantly, he possessed the desire of a top power to pursue after the path of cultivation.

Determination, perseverance, and holding fast to one’s conscience…

What was most important to a Sovereign was not his talent, but having the desire of a Sovereign.

This youth would have a great future.

…

“Sister Ling Xi, has Brother Mu Chen successfully made a breakthrough?” You Jing asked happily and looked at the huge light beam in the distance.
