The Star River Era! The Dimensional Freedom Demon

The two entered the training room.

"No, this is the surprise you gave me."

"Interesting. He's only just started to improve his skills and he's already seeking advice from a senior. He's quite something."

"No way, you're so tough, I can't even scratch you."

"Holy crap, you're actually hitting me? Go easy on me, okay?"

"Ah Chen, what happened to our friendship?"

. . . . . .

Thump thump thump~~

The training room visibly began to shake, and terrifying explosions could be heard from time to time.

After half an hour.

Ji Chen, with a head full of bumps that could make him look like the Buddha, walked out of the training room while still cursing.

Even though Ji Chen had enlightened his mind and given him a 'flesh topknot,' Luo Mingwu was still somewhat incredulous.

No, last month I could easily handle these kids, one slap could kill a whole bunch of them, but today I'm running away with my tail between my legs.

That's really too dreamlike.

"Hey kid, tell me honestly, did you open it?"

It's been left open for a while.

Ji Chen laughed heartily:

"Old Luo is joking again. Do you think this is the virtual universe of the Goddess of Dawn? You've even opened it, haha."

He wasn't lying. He didn't have a system; the panel was just an aid. This wasn't really a "startup"; at most, it was just a minor one.

As everyone knows, a small business doesn't count as a large business.

Luo Mingwu felt even more upset.

He was mentally prepared that Ji Chen would soon surpass him, but...

But this is too fast! He hadn't even adjusted his mindset yet when Ji Chen completely stunned him.

From today onwards, a pitiful, thick barrier will separate him from Ji Chen!

This is heartbreaking!

Touching the fleshy protuberance on his head, a symbol of perfect wisdom, Luo Mingwu felt a deep sense of desolation.

Today this kid dared to give him a "fleshy protuberance," who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause him tomorrow.

Most importantly, this kid also demanded that he maintain this posture for an hour, otherwise the score wouldn't be settled.

Tian Wenjing, I'm going to work at 8 AM!

"You promised to take me out to see a real surprise later, so you can't go back on your word this time, or our relationship will be over."

Seeing that Lao Luo looked like a wounded little wife, Ji Chen quickly comforted him.

"Don't you trust my character? I noticed during our fight that you've hit a new bottleneck. Once I place an order with the Superpower Association, I guarantee your strength will reach new heights."

It's precisely because of your character that I'm worried.

Luo sighed heavily.

But realizing that he had reached a bottleneck in his abilities, he quickly calmed down.

He had already made a quick buck from Ji Chen and upgraded his own abilities.

This time it was a complete freebie, so what more could he want? He should just relax and not worry about it.

He would prefer to be even stronger and go further among four-star superhumans, but if he couldn't, he would accept it.

The Federation's star rating is merely a standardization of strength and destructive power.

However, the true classification of realms often involves several minor and major realms within a single star level.

Furthermore, there are those who cultivate different systems and schools of thought, making the classification of realms even more complex.

Just like the martial arts visualization school that Luo Mingwu cultivates, there are two major realms at the four-star stage: Dharma Form and Divine Connection.

The Dharma form is similar to Ji Chen's Cloud Dragon Dharma form, but his Dharma form is completely different from the Dharma form of the authentic visualization method.

Ji Chen's Dharma form is simply a forced condensation of spiritual energy combined with external energy. It can only be said to have a superficial appearance, having form but no substance, and is extremely crude.

However, the Dharma image produced by the Federal Orthodox Visualization Method is equivalent to directly transplanting a trace of the divine essence of visualization. The Dharma image is complete in spirit and energy, with complete bone structure, and is extremely powerful.

"Don't rush, there's something else waiting for you. Consider it a little dessert before the main course."

"There's more to the show. Which unlucky soul will be your victim today?"

Luo Mingwu's eyes flickered slightly as he pondered who else in the academy might have offended this petty young man beside him.

And so, a name came to light.

"Shen and his party?"

"That's right, let's collect some interest from him today. He's my mentor, and we have corresponding tutoring sessions every month. He can't avoid it."

Luo Mingwu compared Ji Chen's strength and potential just now, and then thought about the seven-year program at the Superpower Academy, and couldn't help but laugh with schadenfreude:

"His good days are going to last a long time, hahaha!"

Thinking about it that way, what's the big bump on his head?

"Luo Mingwu, what are you laughing at?"

Suddenly, an unpleasant voice rang out.

Shen Yihang was wearing a loose-fitting training uniform today, rubbing his fists together, staring at Ji Chen with a malicious look on his face.

He stopped pretending.

He came here to teach Ji Chen, this troublesome student, a lesson.

"What, you brought Luo Mingwu along? Are you lacking confidence and trying to take on two opponents at once?"

"So this is what your arrogance as a genius looks like? In that case, why did you bother calling me, Shen, here?"

When Shen Yihang saw Luo Mingwu here, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately provoked him.

He was confident he could defeat Ji Chen, who had just reached the four-star level.

But Luo Mingwu...

Before his breakthrough, Luo Mingwu was confident that he could easily dominate Luo Mingwu, but after his breakthrough, the situation between them was reversed.

"You think we'd need to beat you up? Shen Yihang, aren't you overestimating yourself?"

Ji Chen knew exactly what Shen Yihang was thinking.

"Teacher Shen, let's begin this month's instructional course. Don't worry, it'll just be the two of us; Teacher Luo will be watching from outside."

Shen Yihang was relieved.

However, as he entered the room and opened the training room door, the "fleshy topknot" on Luo Mingwu's head flashed through his mind.

Is this guy perhaps trying to emulate Xiu and find a new way to break through?

Luo Mingwu watched Shen Yihang walk in and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Shen Yihang's arrogant yet cautious demeanor just now really made him feel uncomfortable.

If he weren't afraid of scaring Shen Yihang, he would have already started yelling and venting his anger at Shen Yihang for the setback he had suffered earlier.

Feeling the rapidly rising atmosphere in the training room, Lao Luo couldn't help but groan as he thought about Shen Yihang's miserable fate later on.

Human happiness is often determined by comparison.

What's the quickest way to shake off despondency and discouragement when someone is down on their luck?

Simple—you're even more unlucky if you see someone nearby.

. . . . . .

Excitement gleamed in Shen Yihang's eyes.

The handsome young man opposite him, who seemed otherworldly, simply stood there, yet possessed an air of elegance, nobility, and solemnity.

That was Ji Chen's strength and the intangible charisma he cultivated from rising from the bottom up in one realm, breaking the established order, establishing a new dynasty, and becoming a solitary figure.

Shen Yihang's apprehension towards Ji Chen deepened, along with a lingering sense of fear.

Faced with a genius who could reach the same level as him from an ordinary person in such a short time, and who was also a rival, how could he not be afraid and worried?

Especially since Ji Chen has only just enrolled, and they will have a seven-year "teacher-student relationship" in the future, Shen Yihang felt a chill run down his spine just thinking about it.

This might be his only chance to defeat Ji Chen, and he must seize it.

He didn't intend to embarrass Ji Chen, but rather to force Ji Chen to back down when he had the upper hand, making things easier for himself later.

Hopefully, this time things will develop as I expected.
