"Nor have I reached the Star Galaxy Level," Qin Mu continued calmly. "But my combat power is already close to it."
Comparable to Star Galaxy Level?
Hiss....
That was terrifying. Truly terrifying.
Only a few days days had passed since the Martial Arts Tournant, and Qin Mu was already at this level?
Just a few days ago, he had barely been at Star Rank.
"The gap... is far too obvious," Wu PoXing thought bitterly.
"Star River Level is not sothing Star Galaxy Level can contend with," he said aloud, his expression heavy. "Let alone soone whose combat power is only comparable."
"It's difficult... truly difficult."
"Dragon Star cannot afford to fall. Humanity cannot afford to fall."
"Universal forces view us, being who cannot even leave our ho galaxy, as re natives."
Heh.
Wu PoXing lowered his head slightly, his fist clenched so tightly they looked like blocks of alloy.
"I know this sounds harsh, but what those universal forces do is more brutal."
"For humanity, there's only one ending, becoming slaves."
"And us?" He let out a self mocking laugh. "We might look decent, with Star Rank combat power."
"But they don't value that."
"Actually... that's not entirely accurate." His smile turned bitter. "They do value us a little because Star Rank Slaves sell for a higher price."
Regarding all this, QIn Mu had already learned much from Ao ngng. His expression remained calm.
"I know," he said. "That's exactly why I said there's no need to panic."
"Panicking won't solve anything."
"If we want to resist external threats, internal stability must co first."
"If we don't deal with scum like William and Shenluo City, Dragon Star won't have any chance of survival at all."
WU PoXing felt silent for a mont.
"All my information cos from fragnted ruins," he said lightly. "But you seem to know far more than I do."
"Could it be..."
"Dominion Trial? Heavenly Sword Sect?"
His eyes widened.
"You... you actually joined the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Qin Mu simply smiled. "What, you didn't receive the Heavenly Sword Sect's online notification?"
"Online notification?"
Wu PoXing froze, then suddenly rembered the system prompt that had appeared during the previous battle. He hurriedly checked it.
A mont later...
He slapped his thigh and burst into laughter.
"Good! This is great!"
"With the Heavenly Sword Sect's, Dragon Star's Martial artists finally have a clear path forward. No more wondering blindly like headless flies!"
Seriously.
Looking at him, it was as if he had received the legacy himself.
"I want to join!" Wu PoXing said eagerly, then hesitated. "Uh... do I need to submit an application?"
This question caught Qin Mu slightly off guard.
"An application,,, isn't necessary," Qin Mu replied. "But you'll only start as an Outer Sect Disciple. If you want to advance further, you have to follow the Heavenly Sword Sect's rules, step by step."
"I understand, I understand!" Wu PoXing wasn't disappointed at all. Instead, he grinned broadly.
"For an existence like the Heavenly Sword Sect, strict rules are only natural."
"Forget Outer Sect Disciple, even if they told to sweep floors, I'd do it!"
Can the feeling of having a ho ever be the sa as not having one?
No matter how high one's status, a person must first have a place to belong. Without it, one can only wander alone, no one to guide them, no one to rely on. Too lonely. Too miserable.
"Alright."
Qin Mu said nothing more and directly accepted Wu PoXing as an Outer Sect Disciple.
"Holy crap!"
"Five hundred points? The welco gift is this generous?!" Wu PoXing exclaid.
Unlike Bai Ming, Wu PoXing understood just how valuable points were in an existence like Heavenly Sword Sect.
While they were talking, the group had already arrived at the Dragon's Nest on the Freedom Continent.
"Didn't you say we were going to find William?" Wu PoXing asked, confused. "Why are we here?"
"Co on," Qin Mu replied casually. "You will understand once we go down."
He leapt out of the fighter jet, summoned his flying sword, and cut his way straight down into the depths of Dragon's Nest.
Beasts he encountered were killed.
Dragons he encountered were slain.
In just a few breaths, the Dragon's Nest was completely cleared, leaving only a massive Light elent Giant Dragon lying on the ground, barely alive.
"Hiss..."
"T-terrifying..."
"So this is Star Galaxy level combat power? Can it really be this overwhelming?"
Wu PoXing was completely stunned.
The giant dragons he had struggled desperately to defeat, QIn Mu killed them with a single sword strike, as effortlessly as chopping firewood.
Not even a bead of sweat appeared on his body.
"This is..." Wu PoXing waited until Qin Mu stopped before finally noticing the colossal structure before them.
An enormous wall stood there, majestic, overwhelming, like legendary world barriers from old movies.
"Trial gate," Qin Mu said simply.
"Trial... gate?" Wu PoXing was speechless. "What kind of trial needs sothing this huge? Isn't this ridiculous?"
"A Star Galaxy level trial," Qin Mu explained. "A Secret Realm created by Heavenly Sword Sect for disciple trials."
"It's so far away that we don't even know whether it still lies withing the Qingxuan Realm."
In truth, Qin Mu himself had no idea where Secret Realm actually was.
Hiss...
Sothing suddenly felt wrong.
"Dragon Star isn't that big," Qin Mu frowned. "So why build three trial gates instead of just one."
"Are they just absurdly rich?"
"Or is my imagination limited by poverty?"
After all, constructing trial gates that spanned countless light years was an absurd cost. Logically speaking, one should have been more than enough.
Even without transportation thods, a Star Rank martial artist could probably run across Dragon Star in less than a day.
"Who told you all trial gates lead to sa trial?" Ao ngng shot back.
"Pfft!"
"That's the point!" Qin Mu gritted his teeth. "You never said these were three different trials?!"
"Also.."
"If there are three different trials, why are their leakage tis exactly the sa?"
Ao ngng placed a finger against her lips, thinking for a mont.
"Hmm.. you've reminded this Princess."
"Although the Secret Realms themselves are different, they all share the core of the Heavenly Sword Sect."
"If that core is attacked, or if sothing goes wrong with it, then all three Secret Realms will be affected at the sa ti."
