Chapter 541: Chapter 535: Surprise from the High Grade Spirit Institute (Third Update)

Whoosh!

Ye Zhen’s Spiritual Power Brick whistled through the air, striking Yua Huaisong viciously in the back of his head, flipping him onto the ground with eyes rolling back, twitching.

No matter how strong a Vein Forging Realm expert is, a weak point is still a weak point. Hitting someone in the head can still cause fainting. Ye Zhen’s Spiritual Power Brick was so forceful it actually broke the skin on the back of Yua Huaisong’s head, which gave Ye Zhen quite a scare.

If he had killed him, it would have gotten troublesome.

A sweep of his Divine Sense revealed that it was only a fractured skull, far from death.

"Don’t...."

The voice that had just started behind Ye Zhen abruptly stopped. However, this voice startled Ye Zhen enormously; he whirled around to see the silver-haired elderly guardian of the Bamboo Sea Spirit Academy standing behind him, staring at Yua Huaisong collapsed on the ground, his expression one of utter shock.

However, Ye Zhen’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Something was odd.

The arrival of the silver-haired elder had gone completely unnoticed by Ye Zhen, to the point where he had even mistaken him for Yua Huaisong earlier.

But after a second thought, Ye Zhen came to peace with it. After all, this silver-haired elder was a venerable old master who had reached the peak of the Fifth Stage of the Soul Sea Realm for who knows how many years, while he himself was only at the First Stage of the Soul Sea Realm, albeit with a considerably strong Divine Soul Cultivation.

At this moment, the silver-haired elder looked somewhat disheveled, his clothing torn open at the chest, as if ripped by a powerful palm strike.

"Ah, I told you not to force your way in. The Spirit Academy is already fully occupied. Why did you still force your way in?" the silver-haired elder said, pointing his bamboo staff at the unconscious Yua Huaisong, a touch of annoyance in his voice.

Hearing the elder’s words, Ye Zhen quickly pieced together the situation. Apparently, Yua Huaisong was also here to cultivate inside the Bamboo Sea Spirit Academy, but he was too late and there were no spots left.

Perhaps by coincidence, Yua Huaisong had seen Ye Zhen enter and followed him in, even getting into a conflict with the silver-haired guardian. The rest, Ye Zhen had firsthand experience with.

Yua Huaisong, relying on his Cultivation, attempted to forcefully snatch the Spirit Academy spot Ye Zhen had reserved. However, caught off guard, Yua Huaisong ended up being dealt with by Ye Zhen instead.

Of course, it wasn’t just Yua Huaisong’s carelessness; rather, it was because Ye Zhen’s Cultivation had just broken through to the Soul Sea Realm, drastically increasing his combat power, and Yua Song had walked right into the line of fire.

"Young man, to have dealt with this guy, not bad!" The silver-haired elder gave Ye Zhen a thumbs-up, but his gaze assessed Ye Zhen’s lower half, which was bare aside from the Red Jade Spirit Armor covering it.

Ye Zhen’s face turned red, and he quickly found a pair of pants to put on. Glancing at Yua Huaisong on the ground, he felt indignant, all thanks to Yua Huaisong’s arrogance causing him to suffer an undeserved calamity.

Yet now that Yua Huaisong lay floored by Ye Zhen, further punishment seemed excessive. But, letting him off without a comeuppance felt unsatisfying.

A flicker of Sword Light in his hand, and torn pieces of fabric flew about. Like Ye Zhen’s, Yua Huaisong’s lower half was now bare, and clearly, Ye Zhen had no interest in admiring that "thing."

In the palm of his hand, a flash of icy light appeared. It had been a long time since he had used the Spiritual Power Secret Technique, Ice Fiend Qi, which now suddenly enveloped Yua Huaisong’s lower body.

Crack crack crack!

The bamboo forest was teeming with moisture. In an instant, a thin layer of solid ice encased Yua Huaisong’s lower body, including "that part."

"Heh, whether you become a eunuch or not is now up to your luck!"

With a light chuckle, Ye Zhen saluted the silver-haired elder with cupped fists, "Thank you for your troubles, elder!"

The silver-haired elder waved his hand and smiled, saying with narrowed eyes, "It’s no trouble, but this fellow is about to wake. You should hurry into the Spirit Academy. He has quite a background, and his behavior is unrestrained. Once inside the Spirit Academy, with the Guardian Light Screen separating it, he won’t be able to touch you."

"Thank you for your advice, elder!"

With a salute, Ye Zhen stepped into the Spirit Academy.

As soon as Ye Zhen entered the Spirit Academy, the silver-haired elder shook his head, tapped his bamboo staff, and also left quickly.

Almost at the same moment, Yua Huaisong let out a pained groan, slowly regaining consciousness.

The next second, Yua Huaisong’s agonized groan turned into a piercing scream!

"My treasure, why can’t I feel my treasure anymore, who, who did this!"

In front of Spirit Academy number sixty-eight, Yua Huaisong stared at his bare lower half and began screaming like a slaughtered pig.

Ye Zhen’s Ice Fiend Qi was extremely chill, and in just this short time, it had numbed Yua Huaisong’s lower half.

Fortunately, Yua Huaisong’s Acquired Spiritual Body had been tempered to the extreme, and he cultivated with the Fire Element Spiritual Power. Ye Zhen’s Ice Fiend Qi, which he had developed at the Spirit Summoning Realm, was of average power.

In a short while, amidst rising mist, Yua Huaisong managed to calm his shocked spirit and stand up, with a super-sized hematoma swelling on the back of his head.

As he stood up, Yua Huaisong rushed towards Spirit Academy number sixty-eight with a face full of evil Qi, roaring at the Academy.

"You bastard, come out here!"

"Come out now!"

"If you don’t come out now, I’ll take your life!"

As Yua Huaisong cursed loudly at the entrance of the Spirit Academy, Ye Zhen had already been stunned by the density of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi inside the High Grade Spirit Academy.

Watching those wisps of mist-like spiritual power drift by his fingers, even a single breath would inhale countless mists of qi into his lungs, filling his chest and cavity with spiritual power. As the spiritual power entered his body, the Shattered Jade Heart Scripture had already started to operate automatically, refining the heaven and earth primordial energy that had been drawn into his body.

"In such a Spirit Academy, even sitting still would increase one’s Cultivation!" Ye Zhen exclaimed in surprise!

At the entrance of Spirit Academy Number Sixty-Eight, Yua Huaisong, seething with rage, was nearly driven to madness!

"Bastard, get out here for me, if you don’t come out now, I will level this Spirit Academy and drag you out!"

"Get out here!" Amidst the roars of fury, a Chi-colored fist imprint suddenly appeared in front of Yua Huaisong’s chest. Blinded by rage, Yua Huaisong actually intended to attack Spirit Academy Number Sixty-Eight.

Inside the Spirit Academy, Ye Zhen was also startled, not expecting Yua Huaisong to act so crazily!

"Yua Huaisong, if you dare to damage this Spirit Academy in the slightest, I can assure you, no one can save you! The High Grade Spirit Institute is one of the most important resources of the Divine Sect, second to none!"

An old voice suddenly rang out over Spirit Academy Number Sixty-Eight, and Ye Zhen recognized it was that of the silver-haired elder.

"Old geezer!"

Yua Huaisong cursed bitterly, and the Chi-colored fist imprint floating in front of his chest dissipated abruptly. No matter how brazen he was, some things that touched on the rules and fundamentals of the Divine Sect were not to be trifounded with.

"Fine, you asshole, you won’t come out, but I’ll remember you today! Do you know who’s behind me? You dare to mess with me, you really don’t know the word ’death’!"

"Kid, I’ll let you cultivate for five days, then just wait and see!"

Having no choice but to threaten a few words in helplessness, Yua Huaisong left with a belly full of fire, just as the silver-haired elder had said—once someone entered the Spirit Academy, nobody could do anything about it.

Meanwhile, Yua Huaisong, fuming with anger, left the Bamboo Sea Spirit Academy and ran into the silver-haired elder right at the entrance.

The silver-haired elder was as usual, with kind eyes and a smile, no different no matter who the visitor was.

However, this smile, viewed by the fuming Yua Huaisong at this moment, carried a different implication.

"Old bastard, even you dare to laugh at me! If I don’t prove how formidable I am today, I won’t believe it myself!"

With a fierce frown, and Chi spiritual light surging around his body, Yua Huaisong charged up and unleashed a vicious flurry of punches and kicks on the silver-haired elder, relentless with his blows.

Perhaps the elder was too old and lacked the fire to fight back, or perhaps he knew he couldn’t beat Yua Huaisong, so he simply didn’t retaliate, constantly maintaining his Protective Spirit Force, allowing Yua Huaisong to beat and kick him to his heart’s content.

Each time the Protective Spirit Force was scattered, it would instantly reconvene, taking each heavy punch without a sound, and yet, his face remained smilingly calm.

Even when being hit and beaten severely, he continued to wear a smile, oddly unsettling!

After having his fill of beating, having vented all his anger, Yua Huaisong finally left satisfied.

While departing, he pointed angrily at the silver-haired elder and shouted, "Old Man Bai, remember next time, always keep a Spirit Academy for me. Whenever I come, there must be one available. If not, every time I see you, I’ll beat you up!"

"Remember, I’m coming back in five days. That Spirit Academy better be reserved for me!"

After throwing down a string of harsh words, Yua Huaisong strode away!

As for the injury at the back of his head, by this time, it had already healed by sixty to seventy percent. The remainder was just the bone to mend. The restoration power of his Acquired Spiritual Body, tempered to the utmost, was not to be underestimated.

"This bastard Yua Huaisong, if it weren’t for the sect rules restraining him, otherwise..."

Inside Spirit Academy Number Sixty-Eight, Ye Zhen gave a cold snort, took a deep breath, and all the displeasure brought by Yua Huaisong was driven out of his body by Ye Zhen.

Entering the Silent Chamber, he sat down cross-legged. As the Shattered Jade Heart Scripture was operated, streams of mist-like heaven and earth primordial energy began to enter through Ye Zhen’s nose and mouth. Inside his body, the four innate bloodlines were also like Tianzhu pillars, plunging directly into the dense heaven and earth primordial energy.

An immense amount of heaven and earth primordial energy flooded into Ye Zhen’s body like a tide. As the Shattered Jade Scripture was operated, the spiritual power inside Ye Zhen’s Dantian was visibly growing at a rapid rate.

"The speed of Cultivation enhancement in this High Grade Spirit Vein truly is extraordinary, the rate of Cultivation increase here is a good thirty percent faster compared to the Mid-grade Spirit Academy!"

Do not underestimate this increase of thirty percent. Mainly because the True Spirit Domain contained quite a substantial amount of Primordial Energy, making the difference appear small due to the large base amount.

But compared with the Black Dragon Domain, the tremendous difference was crystal clear at a glance.

Cultivating for a year inside the Mid-grade Spirit Academy of the True Spirit Domain was equivalent to cultivating for four years within the Mid-grade Spirit Veins of the Black Dragon Domain. After the thirty percent increase, a year of cultivation at the True Spirit Domain’s High Grade Spirit Academy would equate to more than five years within the Black Dragon Domain’s Mid-grade Spirit Veins!

The difference between one year and five years!

How many five-year periods does a martial artist have in their lifetime?

But just as Ye Zhen had reached this conclusion, his eyebrows suddenly shot up in surprise.

"Something’s not quite right... The speed of this Cultivation growth seems to be more than a thirty percent increase?"

Mainly because Ye Zhen had just started cultivating in the High Grade Spirit Academy and experienced less than 15 minutes of cultivation, it was too brief to make an effective judgment.

In the midst of his doubt, Ye Zhen calmed his mind and began to cultivate wholeheartedly, attentively feeling out the differences between cultivating within a High Grade and a Mid-grade Spirit Academy.

After a day had passed, Ye Zhen, who was deeply immersed in cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes. In his gaze, there was an overwhelming surprise that was hard to believe! (To be continued.
