I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

The golden flame wasn't very big.

Only the size of a candle flame.

It hovered three inches in front of Shen Tian's brow.

It did not emit any scorching temperature.

But it's there.

It burns quietly.

Pure, sacred, and domineering.

puff.

Chu Feng.

The brilliant intern, who had just been talking big and looking arrogant, was now inwardly turmoil.

His face was ashen, his eyes fixed on the golden flame, his pupils trembling violently.

"This is……"

Chu Feng's lips trembled, as if he were talking in his sleep.

As a mentalist, he understood what this meant better than anyone else.

Spiritual power is formless and intangible.

A first-rank spiritual master possesses spiritual power as fine as mist.

A second-rank mage possesses spiritual power as fluid as water.

A third-rank mage possesses spiritual power as potent as mercury.

Only by breaking through the limit of the third rank and stepping into the legendary fourth rank realm will one's spiritual power undergo a qualitative change.

From virtual to real!

Ignite the divine fire!

That is the realm that all spiritual practitioners dream of, the ticket to the ladder to becoming a master!

Chu Feng, known as the number one genius of the Spiritual Power Department of Longyuan Martial Arts University, already stands out among his peers with his mid-stage third-grade cultivation.

In order to cultivate a spark of spiritual energy, he meditated for twelve hours every day.

But the result?

I didn't see a single hair!

And now.

Right in front of him.

A boy who looked several years younger than him.

He regarded a guy as a "vulgar brute" and a "spoiled brat".

Just a quick tap.

It is a golden flame of spirit!

And the purity, the color...

It's even more perfect than described in textbooks!

Chu Feng thought of the questions Shen Tian had asked him before.

These are all the most basic questions.

Before coming in, Shen Tian didn't even know the most basic forging process.

Arriving at the Tiangong Division felt like opening the door to a new world.

He simply couldn't reconcile the image of that clueless spoiled brat with that young man before him who possessed a spiritual fire.

No, buddy.

You're already a fourth-grade spiritual master, and you're still asking me those beginner questions.

They're trying to trick me by putting on a sweet talk!

It wasn't just Chu Feng.

Zhou Xuan, standing next to him, practically popped his eyes out.

Although he wasn't a mentalist, he'd seen pigs run even if he hadn't eaten pork!

Chu Feng is hailed as the most promising mentalist in the entire Tianyun City, something he doesn't even possess.

Shen Tian actually has it?

"My goodness..."

Zhou Xuan felt a chill run down his spine.

He originally thought that Shen Tian was able to kill the Beast King because of his abnormal physical body and swordsmanship.

He was a pure warrior.

And now you're telling me this guy is a mage?

Dual cultivation of magic and martial arts?

Is this even human?

Chu Feng is hailed as a once-in-a-century genius in the mental sciences at Longyuan Martial Arts University.

He knew all too well the significance of this moment.

That is the fire of the spirit!

It is an insurmountable barrier that countless peak-level third-grade Nen masters cannot cross even after a lifetime of effort!

Even his teacher, Gu He, only ignited his talent at the age of fifty, thus entering the ranks of the fourth grade.

Gu He shoved Chu Feng aside, who was blocking his way, and rushed to Shen Tian in a few steps.

A vast and boundless spiritual power surged forth from Guhe's brow.

But this force is no longer violent.

Instead, it became extremely delicate and gentle, like an invisible net that instantly enveloped Shen Tian.

This feeling is very strange.

It felt like someone was looking at every pore on my body with a magnifying glass.

A few seconds later.

Guhe withdrew his spiritual power.

But he did not regain his composure.

in contrast.

A look of joy began to appear on his aged face.

Chu Feng had never seen Master Guhe so excited.

Yes, who wouldn't be excited to see such a talented child?

"Bone age of 17 years and 9 months..."

Guhe muttered to himself, his voice fading away.

Seventeen years old!

Fourth-rank Spiritual Master!

He spent his entire life in the weapons-making industry.

I've seen so-called geniuses as numerous as carp crossing a river.

Take Chu Feng, who is standing next to us, for example.

Twenty-two years old, mid-stage third-rank spiritual power.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this is already a genius whose ancestors' graves are emitting auspicious smoke.

But what about Shen Tian?

Spiritual energy is not like the physical body's vital energy.

The physical body can be forcibly improved through medicine, cultivation techniques, or even some kind of fortuitous encounter.

But my mental strength is lacking!

Spiritual power depends on the strength of a person's soul.

This thing either needs to be honed little by little over a long period of time, or it is naturally very strong.

Shen Tian is not even eighteen years old yet, and he seems to be a martial artist.

Naturally, he had never formally cultivated his spiritual power.

Therefore, there is only one possibility.

He was born to be a fourth-rank official!

A prodigy born with a fiery spirit!

Guhe recalled his youth.

At that time, he was hailed as a peerless prodigy, appearing only once every hundred years in Tianyun City.

His innate peak second-grade spiritual power allows him to grow at a rate several times faster than his peers, even without much cultivation.

How spirited and ambitious he was back then!

He even once believed that he was the protagonist of this world.

But now.

Looking at Shen Tian in front of him.

Guhe suddenly felt that he had wasted his life at this age!

People are more mad than people.

Compare the goods, and you'll have to throw it away!

A second-rank natural talent is nothing compared to a fourth-rank natural talent!

This is like...

Everyone is running marathons.

Ordinary people are still tying their shoelaces at the starting line.

Guhe was born with extraordinary talent, located halfway up a mountain.

And Shen Tian, ​​this prodigy...

He was born right behind the finish line!

Gu He stared at Shen Tian, ​​his eyes growing brighter and brighter.

More than just shock.

More than anything, it was the ecstatic joy of discovering an unparalleled gem!

They possess such overwhelmingly strong innate resources.

Even if Shen Tian stops cultivating his spiritual power from now on and relies solely on natural growth...

Within five years, I will definitely break through to the fifth rank!

Within twenty years, it is even possible to reach the sixth rank.

What does this mean?

This means that it only requires a little polishing.

This is the youngest master weapon maker in the future Dragon Kingdom!

Even... a master craftsman!

Guhe took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

He straightened his messy collar.

She even went so far as to reach out and smooth her head of white hair, which looked like a bird's nest.

The violence and arrogance on his face vanished without a trace in an instant.

Instead, he wore a kind and gentle smile.

The speed at which this person changed their expression left Zhou Xuan and Chu Feng speechless.

Is this still the same grumpy old man who throws people against the wall at the slightest provocation?

Is this guy being possessed?

"Cough cough."

Guhe cleared his throat, trying to make his voice sound like that of a highly respected senior.

He ignored Chu Feng, who was still in a daze, and Zhou Xuan, who was covered in cold sweat.

Those eyes could only hold Shen Tian.

"Young man."

Guhe rubbed his hands together, his tone so gentle it could melt hearts.

"I see you have extraordinary bone structure and a full forehead; you are truly a once-in-a-millennium genius in weapon forging!"

"How is it?"

"Are you interested...?"

Gu He stepped forward, looking at Shen Tian with eager eyes.

"Want to join our Weaponsmith Guild?"

boom!

As soon as those words were spoken...

It wasn't just Chu Feng.

Even Lei Wanshan, who had just gotten up at the door to eavesdrop, felt his head buzz.

Join the Weaponsmith Guild?

He had heard a little about the Weapon Casting Division's union.

He originally thought that Master Guhe would take on a disciple.

Unexpectedly, Master Guhe directly recommended Shen Tian to join the Weapon Forging Guild.

This means that Master Guhe regards Shen Tian as an equal to himself!

You should know that countless sons of powerful and wealthy families have come to him with mountains of gold and silver, but they can't even get to see Gu He.

Even a genius like Chu Feng, who was favored, was only a "nominal disciple." He usually just helped out and never even had a formal apprenticeship ceremony!

And now.

This is the most grumpy and arrogant old man in Yuncheng.

They actually lowered themselves so much in front of this seventeen-year-old boy!

Zhou Xuan swallowed hard.

He looked at the kind-faced Gu He, then at the expressionless Shen Tian.

I just feel that this world is too crazy.
