1653 Mysterious!
“Entering the Star Rankings is of great significance. At the same time, you have to bear many responsibilities,” Sikong continued.
“Bear many responsibilities? instructor, what do you mean?” Wang Teng asked.
“For instance, there will be many people in the Stellar Academies who are unconvinced by you. They might come and look for you hahaha…” Sikong The Second gloated.
...Wang Teng felt speechless.
Has he already become a target before entering the Seven Stellar Academies?
Was he allowed to skip school?
Was it too late for him to leave now?
Wang Teng suddenly felt that there was a huge trap waiting for him in front. He preferred to improve his ability steadily.
“All the best, young man. I hope that one day, you will be able to light up your Divine Kingdom in the Eternity and become an existence that transcends everything.” Sikong The Second patted Wang Teng’s shoulder and encouraged him.
“Divine Kingdom!” Wang Teng was flabbergasted. He wanted to ask.
However, at this moment, a warship flew over from afar and a voice echoed in the universe.
“Sikong Number Two, you’re here too.”
“F**k, Old Man Shu, I told you not to call me Number Two. Why are you shouting?” Sikong The Second flared up like a cat whose tail got stepped on.
“Isn’t your name Number Two? Why can’t I call you that?” The person laughed loudly.
“Do you want to fight?” Sikong The Second asked coldly.
“Alright, why must we argue every time we meet? Since everyone is here, come over quickly” Another voice floated over from the Chaotic Star Sea in front.
Wang Teng was surprised and looked in the direction of the sound.
There was a vast celestial body that looked like a meteorite floating at the edge of the Chaotic Star Sea. The voice was coming from above.
“Hmph, I’m too lazy to argue with you.” Sikong The Second snorted. Their warship immediately shot towards the meteorite.
Boom!
The speed was amazing. It traveled tens of thousands of miles in an instant and entered the Chaotic Star Sea. Then, it landed on the meteorite.
Wang Teng finally saw the situation on the meteorite.
This was like a small piece of land. It was built like a spacecraft dock and a huge warship was parked not far away.
Wang Teng and Sikong The Second’s warship was like a baby in front of this giant. The difference was vast.
“Instructor, this is…” Wang Teng whispered.
“This is a warship that will bring us to the Seven Stellar Academies. The Chaotic Star Sea is more terrifying than the void torrent belt. The warship we took can’t resist the chaotic energy in the Chaotic Star Sea,” Sikong The Second explained.
“The Chaotic Star Sea is indeed scary!” Wang Teng was shocked.
At this moment, another warship arrived right after them and landed on this meteorite. A group of people alighted.
The leader was a middle-aged man. He had black hair and his face was a little long. His aura wasn’t significant.
More than 30 young men and women followed closely behind him.
These youths had one thing in common. They were all extremely confident, or rather… proud!
It was a pride that came from the bottom of their heart.
Wang Teng didn’t recognize these young people. They weren’t the Second Prince or Ji Haochen from the Great Qian Empire.
“These must be the talents from the other territorial domains,” Round Ball said in Wang Teng’s mind.
Wang Teng nodded.
“Sikong, you only accepted one student?” The middle-aged man with a long face walked over and asked in surprise.
“It’s none of your business.” Sikong The Second ignored him. He didn’t hide his contempt.
Shu Chu didn’t mind. He looked at Wang Teng and squinted. Then, he smiled and said, “This young man must be extraordinary to be able to let you guide him alone. I heard that a talent from the Great Qian Empire managed to get onto the Star Rankings. Is it him?”
Wang Teng’s expression didn’t change, but his gaze flickered slightly. As expected, these eternal stage martial warriors were all smart people. They could guess that he had entered the Star Rankings because he was the only martial warrior Sikong The Second fetched.
However, this person didn’t seem to have any good intentions when he revealed his identity directly.
Wang Teng glanced at the young martial warriors behind Shu Chu. As expected, they were looking at him curiously.
They knew about the legendary Star Rankings and knew what it meant to be on it.
Now, a talent who managed to get onto the Star Rankings was standing right in front of them. It would be a lie to say that they didn’t have any thoughts.
Some showed hostility, some were unconvinced, some were curious, some were indifferent…
Everyone was looking at Wang Teng blatantly, disregarding his emotions.
Wang Teng remained expressionless but he sniggered in his heart.
A bunch of tools!
They looked like good tools!
“Are these the talents you brought back from the Tianlan Territorial Domain?” Sikong The Second didn’t reply to him. Instead, he sized up the young martial warriors opposite him and asked calmly.
Tianlan Territorial Domain! Wang Teng thought to himself. Another human domain?
“That’s right. They’re the top 10 talents from the various factions in the Tianlan Territorial Domain.” Shu Chu nodded.
There were hidden benefits for examiners like them to invigilate the various territorial domains’ competitions in the universe. For instance, they could interact with the talents first. Once they established a good relationship with them, these talents would naturally come to their faction.
There were many factions in the Stellar Academies, even in a single faculty.
Yet, Shu Chu managed to pull all the top ten talents in the territorial domain to his side. He was a very opportunistic person.
But, when he saw Wang Teng standing behind Sikong The Second, he didn’t feel proud anymore!
A single talent on the Star Rankings was enough to win all the talents behind him.
A peerless and formidable talent couldn’t be surpassed by numbers alone.
“Not bad. You brought many talents back to the Seventh Stellar Academy.” Sikong The Second nodded.
The corners of Shu Chu’s eyes twitched.
This Sikong Number Two was complimenting him. Who did he think he was?
Wang Teng chuckled in his heart. Instructor Sikong was not the type to suffer losses easily. The other party wouldn’t be able to get any advantages.
“You’re Wang Teng, right?” Shu Chu ignored Sikong The Second and looked at Wang Teng instead.
“Yes.” Wang Teng was surprised that the other party knew his name. However, since he asked, he could only nod and agree.
“Old fellow, what do you want to do?” Sikong The Second was vigilant.
“What can I do? I just want to get to know Wang Teng.” Shu Chu smiled and turned to Wang Teng. “My name is Shu Chu. You may look for me if you face any difficulties in the Seventh Stellar Academy.”
“F**k, how dare you steal my man.” Sikong The Second was furious.
“What do you mean by your man? He hasn’t officially entered the stellar academy. It doesn’t mean anything.” Shu Chu laughed and ignored Sikong The Second. He turned and walked towards the huge warship with his men.
“Wang Teng, don’t get fooled by him. This old fellow is famous for throwing his net wide to catch more fish. If you choose his side, you won’t get many resources,” Sikong The Second gritted his teeth and said to Wang Teng hurriedly.
“Instructor, I don’t even know what side you’re talking about,” Wang Teng smiled and said.
His intention was clear. It was too early to say this.
Sikong The Second regained his senses. He secretly lamented that his concerns made things complicated, and he couldn’t see things as clearly as a new student.
“You’re right. We’ll talk about this after we reach the stellar academy.” Sikong The Second looked at him intently and regained his composure. He waved his hand and kept the warship behind him. Then, he walked forward and said, “Come, let’s board the spacecraft. It looks like most of the people are here.”
Wang Teng nodded and followed him.
The two of them boarded the giant warship.
When he boarded the warship, Wang Teng finally realized that there were already many people on it. They were split into many small groups.
Wang Teng blinked. These talents belonged to different factions. It looked like the Seven Stellar Academies encompassed all the talents in the universe.
Also, he could sense that these talents were all extraordinary. Some were on par with the Second Prince, while others were on par with the Crown Prince.
This distinct faint aura would appear naturally when one reached a certain level. It wasn’t something an ordinary talented martial warrior could possess.
“Wang Teng!” At this moment, a surprised voice came from a corner of the warship.
“Ji Haochen!” Wang Teng turned and looked in the direction of the voice. As expected, he saw a few familiar figures. It was the Second Prince, Ji Haochen, and a few others.
Wang Teng looked at Sikong The Second.
“Go ahead. You can stay with them before you reach the faculty.” Sikong The Second disappeared after he finished speaking.
Wang Teng walked over and scanned the crowd. He noticed that besides the Crown Prince, the top 10 in the League Of Talents of the Great Qian Empire were all here. He smiled and asked, “When did you arrive?”
“We have been here for a day. We have been waiting for this warship to set sail,” the Second Prince, Yu Yuanrui, smiled and replied.
Yu was the imperial surname of the Great Qian Empire. This surname was relatively rare in the universe.
“Where are the others?” Wang Teng glanced around him. He didn’t see any of the top 1,000 martial warriors from the Great Qian Empire.
“They seem to have another warship fetching them.” Ji Haochen greeted him. “Come, sit down and talk. We were just discussing when you would arrive. Why did you arrive so late??”
“I had many things to settle in my territory so I left a little late.” Wang Teng shook his head.
Then, he started chatting with the others. Ji Haochen and the others arrived earlier than him so they were more familiar with this place. However, they didn’t know much as the talents from the different territorial domains were all gathered together. They didn’t interact much.
But, Wang Teng received an important piece of news from them. The Crown Prince was here too. He was in the cabin and hadn’t come out.
Wang Teng was surprised. What was going on with the Crown Prince?
Why was he released after he turned into a dark apparition? Also, why were the Seven Stellar Academies willing to accept him?
Things were getting mysterious.
