The Star River Era! The Dimensional Freedom Demon

the next day.

Ji Chen was preparing to go to the Superpower Association when he unexpectedly found himself waiting for someone.

Shen Yixing.

As soon as Ji Chen opened the dormitory door to leave, he saw Shen Yihang's ashamed face.

Ji Chen was startled.

Anyone would be suspicious if someone blocked their front door early in the morning.

For a fleeting moment, Ji Chen even wondered if Shen Yihang thought he might pose a threat in the future and was planning to kill him prematurely.

Ji Chen was wary, but didn't even glance at him, and walked straight out.

"Hey, Ji, Ji."

Shen Yihang moved with incredible speed, leaving afterimages as he blocked Ji Chen's path with a beaming smile, showing no sign of embarrassment.

"The teacher's opinion last time may have been biased, Ji. Why don't we go inside and talk?"

"I wouldn't dare."

Ji Chen sneered inwardly, but didn't give Shen Yihang a friendly look on his face.

"Teacher, I have other things to attend to, and I don't want to take up any more of your time, so please go back."

Shen Yihang cursed Ji Chen in his heart for being ungrateful, but on his face he showed no sign of it and still maintained the appearance of a good teacher.

"Even if something comes up, it won't take more than a few words. I know you have a misunderstanding about your teacher, but I don't care. We can talk it out."

Misunderstand?

Ji Chen sneered inwardly.

But one has to admire how thick-skinned this bastard is. He can endure a student's sarcastic remarks and still remain unfazed. That takes skill, I must say.

After all, Shen Yihang was his mentor and a four-star expert, so he had to give him some face.

Otherwise, if you push the dog too far, it will jump over the wall, and he will be the one who suffers.

Ji Chen finally stopped, ready to see what this bastard was up to.

"Okay, then you can speak, teacher."

Seeing that Ji Chen showed no intention of going back to the room for a private talk, and feeling the gazes of the other classmates who had come to watch the commotion, Shen Yihang realized that Ji Chen had no intention of going back to the room for a private talk.

While he was giving Ji Chen a thorough dressing-down, he also spoke in a gentle tone:

"Well, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that a student as diligent, hardworking, and talented as you, Ji, is definitely not someone who is overly ambitious. Moreover, as your mentor, I cannot be too rigid."

Seeing that he had made his meaning so clear, and Ji Chen still had no intention of responding, Shen Yihang finally couldn't hold back any longer.

His lips twitched slightly, he took a deep breath, and continued:

"Teaching according to aptitude is a quality that a teacher should possess. High-achieving students should be taught in a different way. For a genius like Ji, the teacher should not follow any conventional methods."

"I hereby announce that Ji Chen, you have passed your cultivation assessment!"

Shen Yihang thought Ji Chen might be happy, but to his surprise, the student just stared at him.

Only after making him feel a little uneasy did Ji Chen smile slightly and politely say:

"Thank you, teacher."

That's it?

Shen Yihang's face stiffened slightly as he said:

"Ji, you passed the assessment. You can now apply for further superpower knowledge. Aren't you happy?"

"Of course I'm happy."

"Well, never mind, since everything's alright, then you can go now, teacher. I have other things to do. Goodbye."

bang——

Looking at the tightly closed dormitory door, Shen Yihang was so angry that his nose almost twisted.

"A mere student who has just mastered the Taiyi Pure Yang Breathing Technique..."

Shen Yihang thought about the vice dean's order, and then about the news that the dean had appeared in Ji Chen's dormitory and praised him in a friendly manner.

He ultimately lacked the courage to break down the dormitory door, which to him was no different from plastic.

. . . . . .

"Ha, the dean merely showed his face to me, and all the overt and covert suppression from the academy vanished. Truly..."

Ji Chen's desire to become stronger was stronger than ever before.

Without strength, there is no power.

Without power, one can only be manipulated by others.

Ji Chen took out his phone and logged into the campus academic affairs system.

"As expected, the review has been approved."

Seeing the words "Approved," Ji Chen finally couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Going to the Superpower Association and exposing his identity as the creator of his genre to the light of day was ultimately only a last resort.

Relying on the academy to obtain subsequent superpower knowledge without risk is obviously a better choice.

Ji Chen opened the college's textbook selection page.

Suddenly, all sorts of detailed superpower knowledge categories appeared on the phone.

Besides the five main categories of martial arts, immortal cultivation, magic, spiritual energy, and mechanics, there are some lesser-known categories.

Ji Chen was very envious of every category.

The characteristic of "idealistic adaptability" allows him to cultivate every superpower system without hindrance.

He can utilize every type of superpower knowledge under these categories, using it as resources to become stronger.

But Ji Chen calmed himself down and opened the Martial Arts section.

In his second textbook selection, compared to the first introductory selection, he could only choose two.

In this way, the cost of trial and error is even lower than the first time, and the apostles in Ji Chen's hands do not involve talents from other superpower systems.

Instead of trying different system combinations by chance in the hope of achieving a synergistic effect where 1+1>2, this approach is more effective.

Continuing to delve deeper into martial arts would be less risky and more rewarding for him.

The martial arts system is further divided into three main schools: [Martial Arts Visualization Method], [Spiritual Unity Method], and [Tai Xu Method].

Among them, the [Tai Xu Fa] is hailed as the strongest style in the martial arts system.

Too big.

Taixu refers to the origin of the universe, and also to the chaotic void that gave birth to the stars and all things in the universe.

The [Tai Xu Fa] is not unique to the Human Federation; it is widely spread among various alien races in the universe and is the supreme method with the most practitioners and the widest number of powerful individuals in the entire main world.

Its most important characteristic is that it is easy to learn but difficult to master.

The standard of talent is the performance in the most refined and pure way when one first enters the field.

As for the [Martial Arts Perspective]...

This martial arts school is based on observing divine beings born with extraordinary abilities.

Then, these sacred images are engraved in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the essence, energy and spirit of the cultivator are tempered by these sacred charms, nourishing the soul and spirit.

They then use corresponding breathing techniques to resonate their soul and body, gradually increasing their physical strength and thereby gaining some of the divine abilities of visualization.

As for the origins of these sacred beings, they are either colossal creatures traversing the stars and seas of space, or artificially created by the Federation itself.

Ji Chen even saw sacred names like [Vermilion Bird] and [True Dragon] in this school of thought, which were clearly not from the main world.

The final [Spirit Refining and Unity Method].

Although this school of thought is classified as a cultivation method, it actually focuses more on auxiliary methods.

Its entry requirements are extremely special; practitioners must maintain pure bloodlines and are strictly prohibited from injecting any gene-enhancing drugs.

Based on this, practitioners need to use the unique "Spirit Seal Method" of their school to start with ordinary animals such as chickens, ducks, fish, lions, tigers, and elephants, and extract a talent or characteristic of a certain animal into a "Beast Seal" and engrave it on themselves.

Upon success, the cultivator will gain a portion of the animal's talent and power.

For example, the balance of chickens and ducks, the endurance and underwater breathing of fish, the imposing presence of lions, and the immense strength of elephants, etc.

In each realm, a cultivator can inscribe a maximum of nine beast seals. After that, they must fuse them together to forge a unique "human seal" in order to break through to the next stage.

Upon entering the new stage, they begin to refine even more powerful "Star Beast Seals," accumulating them to nine in number before fusing them together once more.

This cycle repeats itself, progressing layer by layer—from star beasts to spirit beasts, exotic beasts, space behemoths, and even divine beasts…

By absorbing the strengths of all living beings, the cultivator's power and talent will reach their peak.

However, once a cultivator goes astray, becomes unable to achieve unity, and covets the power of other beast inscriptions, they will lose themselves in the power and become a deformed anomaly, perhaps even carrying their own mental pollution, the kind that drives people crazy at first glance.
