Chapter 318: Chapter 152: Limits and the Message from the State Preceptor_2

Lv Kun was extremely astute.

He knew too well why he had been taken under the wing of Academician Fang Shihan.

Actually, one of the main reasons was that Xu Jin, the First True Inheritor, had embarrassed Academician Fang.

Taking him in was partly to regain face, fortunately, his strength was also not lacking.

But now...

["Hongli, come see me," Song Ziyue]

Not long after leaving Minglun Hall, Song Ziyue, the head of the Twelve Vice Academicians, sent a Starlight Transmission to his student, Ji Hongli.

Ji Hongli was exceptionally talented and hailed from the Wanyi Ji Family. Song Ziyue had already decided to start with his own student to strike at Xu Jin.

Even if it meant transferring all the resources lost to Liu Qingzhu to Ji Hongli, it was still better than losing to Liu Qingzhu.

Resources should not end up in the fields of others.

["Okay, teacher, I’m currently Cultivating in the Star Power Secret Realm. I’ll be there in about half an hour," Ji Hongli]

After receiving the reply, Song Ziyue didn’t say much else and returned to his residence, then entered the Star-picking Tower’s God-Killing Battlefield, and somewhat obsessively watched the changes in Xu Jin’s ranking.

In that amount of time, he was already on the seventy-sixth challenge.

Which meant, Xu Jin was already battling six Mid to Low-Grade Alien Race members at the Eighth Tier Refining Star, one of whom was an Elite Alien Race!

Ordinary Alien Race members, being mostly Mid to Low Grade Star Casters, were relatively weak and it was not unusual for Dachen’s talents to defeat them at a higher tier.

But Elite Alien Race members were Top-Grade Star Casters, and an Eighth Tier Elite Alien Race, in terms of real strength, was only slightly weaker than True Disciples of the same Cultivation Level from the National Taoist Institute, but at least stronger than about half of the ordinary Core Disciples of the same Cultivation Level.

Although it was said that the Alien Races simulated in the Star-picking Tower’s God-Killing Battlefield Secret Realm evolved simulations were slightly weaker in combat power compared to the real counterpart in the Galaxy Battlefield, after all, this was merely a simulation.

The ferocity, cruelty, and cunning of the Alien Races couldn’t be perfectly simulated.

But they possessed about eighty to ninety percent of the power.

And yet, this Xu Jin was only at the First Layer of Refining Star, which meant he had already surpassed seven tiers!

How could he be so strong?

At the same time, just after successfully challenging the seventy-seventh round, Xu Jin received a Starlight Transmission from his teacher, Liu Qingzhu.

["Xu Jin, after you finish the God-Killing Battlefield, come to the Academic Hall to find me," Liu Qingzhu]

After replying to the message, Xu Jin immediately started the seventy-eighth challenge.

Today, he had already planned to push to his limits!

In fact, Xu Jin felt that his limit was almost reached.

When challenging the seventieth round, he struggled slightly.

Using the Divine Soul Secret Technique Breaking Evil combined with a powerful discharge of Star Power, he had just managed to kill a Seventh Tier Elite Alien Race Heavenly Pride.

Xu Jin referred to the small bosses of Top-Grade Star Casting in the God-Killing Battlefield as Alien Race Heavenly Prides.

In terms of strength, they were really strong.

If compared to the Top-Grade Star Casters, Chi Meng and Chi You, he had encountered in the Fire Radiant Star Domain,

any of these two would be slain within ten seconds.

The Star Casting Realm Xu Jin would also be annihilated.

The unengraved Mid-Tier Fire Origin Star Pattern Xu Jin would also be killed.

The Top-Grade Star Casting Alien Race Heavenly Pride was not only powerful in Star Power but also in all aspects: Star Patterns, Star Skills, and Practical Combat Ability.

Of course, in a one-on-one fight, Xu Jin was not at all afraid.

The key was, it was one against eleven.

And extremely close at that.

At the instant the battle started, he would be surrounded.

The seventy-eighth round was the same.

This round featured two Alien Race elites.

In the first second of the battle, Xu Jin was fired upon by eight Eighth Tier Refining Star Alien Races.

Relying on the newly learned kite ring, Xu Jin used his bizarre speed and movement technique to dodge most of the strikes, but he was still hit continuously.

While the Body Protective Starlight Shield and standard Star Armor shattered, they also provided Xu Jin with the opportunity to kill his enemies.

Breaking Evil combined with Fire Arrow and Starfire Ring erupted consecutively, allowing Xu Jin to swiftly kill the two strongest Eighth Tier Refining Star Alien Race elites and the nurturing-like Alien Race Green Demon.

This healing Alien Race Green Demon was Xu Jin’s most disliked opponent.

The battle that followed was much simpler.

He passed the seventy-eighth round.

Xu Jin continued to challenge the seventy-ninth round of the God-Killing Battlefield.

The difficulty between the seventy-ninth round and the seventy-eighth round was only slightly different, with just one more ordinary Eighth Tier Refining Star Alien Race.

Since he could pass the seventy-eighth round, the foundation for passing the seventy-ninth round was also there.

["Xu Jin: ready to challenge the eightieth round, reward 80 Taoist Merit points"]

Just as Xu Jin had anticipated, the Taoist Merits from the God-Killing Battlefield were cumulative and increasingly significant.

However, Xu Jin did not rush to challenge but first earnestly considered his tactics.

The lineup for the eightieth round of the God-Killing Battlefield should be fixed: six ordinary Eighth Tier Refining Star Alien Races, three Eighth Tier Elite Alien Races, one nurturing Elite Green Demon Alien Race, and an exceptionally powerful Eighth Tier Refining Star Alien Race Heavenly Pride!

To succeed, the key was to slay this Alien Race Heavenly Pride as soon as possible.

Actually, the best tactic was to rely on his movement speed to break out from the encirclement at the first moment and then wage a guerrilla warfare to defeat them one by one.

But Xu Jin had already tried this in the seventieth round, and his current speed was only barely on par with the Seventh Tier Elite Alien Races, slower than the Seventh Tier Alien Race Heavenly Pride.

Thus, the speed of the Eighth Tier Elite Alien Races and the Alien Race Heavenly Pride would definitely be much faster than Xu Jin.

This tactic was not usable.

However, once Xu Jin’s Cultivation Level breaks through and he engraves the speed-type Star Pattern, this aspect would be significantly improved!

He could only resort to the first tactic—capture the king!

If he could kill the Eighth Tier Refining Star Alien Race Heavenly Pride and Elite Green Demon, then there was a reasonable chance to pass the eightieth round.

If not, that would be the limit for the First Layer Refining Star Xu Jin!
