Star Master Du Tingyun and Star Master Zhang Zhen, although they were playing chess, were not focused on the ga at all; they glanced occasionally at the ti-tracking water clock, and then at the Six Alloy Wheel in the hands of National Master Cheng Yuxiao.
Contrastingly, National Master Cheng Yuxiao and the Left Libationer ng Yanhui, were very engrossed and spirited in their concentrated chess match.
To understand this situation, one must go back to last night.
Last night, during a positional overlap update, the two Star Masters suddenly discovered that the positions of one spot of golden light and two spots of blood light almost overlapped on the Six Alloy Wheel.
This ant that a disciple from the National Taoist Institute had overlapped in position with two disciples from the Star Hall.
If there was positional overlap, it indicated an encounter, which ant life or death was to be determined.
Because of this, since last night, the two Star Masters had been particularly anxious.
From the seven disciples the Star Hall had invested, now only these two remaining disciples were left.
If one more disciple were to die in battle, it would be almost the sa as a complete annihilation.
Normally, the temperant of the two Star Masters wouldn’t allow such concern.
But, several two-hour periods had passed, and the outco was still not decided.
Their worry lead them to lose their composure.
The positional overlap of these three disciples, the one golden and two blood spots, had persisted for seven two-hour periods.
Moreover, every two hours when the positions were updated, there would be a slight shift.
This ant that none of the sides had been captured.
What exactly was going on?
The three maintained a very close distance but had not settled for victory, death, or capture?
What had happened?
The state of mind of the two Star Masters was a bit affected.
As another two-hour period precisely arrived, the two Star Masters started to gaze intently at National Master Cheng Yuxiao’s movents again.
In the next instant, National Master Cheng Yuxiao pushed the Six Alloy Wheel to its limit, and once again the spots of light erged.
Golden spots, still seven.
Apart from disappointnt, the Star Masters felt their hearts lifted with anxiety again.
Their disciples better not be…
The next mont, they saw two blood-colored spots of light appear, and finally, they could breathe a sigh of relief.
They were still there.
But upon closer inspection, they were displeased again.
That golden spot and the two blood spots were still superimposed, still in the sa region.
This made the two Star Masters discontent again.
What were they playing at?
Then suddenly, the Star Masters saw the golden light tremble, it seed to be moving.
But the blood spots stood still, unmoving.
In an instant, both Star Masters felt the sa worry rising uncontrollably: could it be that both Star Hall disciples had been captured by that single National Taoist Institute disciple?
At this thought, the Star Masters’ state of mind started to deteriorate again.
But they hadn’t shattered.
Twenty breaths later, the starlight on the Six Alloy Wheel faded.
But Du Tingyun and Zhang Zhen, the two Star Masters, grew even more anxious!
*****
In the Purple Wind Star Domain, within the Purple Wing Royal Palace.
Nad as being sent to a side hall to rest, Xu Jin was in actuality being watched over.
His treatnt, however, was decent.
He was served with fruit and tea, and the room was fairly free.
But inside, a guard of the Fourth Tier Condensed Star Second Level, along with six guards in the late period of Refining Star, guarded this side hall.
This made Xu Jin sowhat anxious.
If he were to be watched this closely, the opportunity he had hardly created might be lost.
Regarding all the promises from the Purple Wing King Zi Hao, Xu Jin did not believe a single word.
But what could be confird was, once this Purple Wing King succeeded in Divine Separation and was free from the control of Cangming Star Hall, he would certainly slay Zhang Shuo, Xu Jin, and any other intruder!
That was not Xu Jin’s purpose.
His goal was to return alive with all his sect mates!
Fortunately, there was still ti for Xu Jin.
This side hall was supposed to handle other affairs normally and wasn’t specifically for confinent.
There were several windows and the lighting was decent.
It was convenient for the guards outside to monitor Xu Jin, and also convenient for Xu Jin to observe the situation of the Royal Palace’s main hall.
After Xu Jin was brought out, two experts from the Royal Family at the Mid to Late Period of Star Condensation went in.
A protector, absolutely not!
A king of a clan could not let strong subordinates stay by their side during the cultivation of such techniques.
It was too risky.
Under complete concentration, the slightest malicious intent to launch a sneak attack could lead to death.
They had been inside for so long, without leaving.
There was only one possibility.
Experint!
Zi Hao was validating the Divine Separation Secret Technique that Xu Jin had provided with his experts.
That was basic procedure.
If Xu Jin were the king, he would do the sa.
To take a cultivation technique delivered by a stranger with sweet words, especially a vital Divine Soul Technique, and practice it, Zi Hao would not be fit to be a king of the Purple Wing Clan.
Xu Jin had researched the Divine Separation Secret Technique.
Expressly, it could be achieved in a little as two quarters of a two-hour period.
For a more cautious approach, taking two hours was also possible.
Xu Jin sat cross-legged on the bed, looking out the window at the main hall diagonally opposite.
anwhile, the Mingji Star Pattern operated, sensing the faint and minute fluctuations inside the main hall.
Despite a considerable distance, changes in Divine Soul Power were still perceptible.
The reason why Xu Jin was arranged so close to the main hall was probably to keep an eye on him.
At such a proximity, any abnormality would an Zi Hao could reach him in an instant; there was no need to worry about Xu Jin escaping or causing trouble.
Two hours later, Xu Jin’s Mingji Star Pattern quivered a few tis, detecting a significant shift in Divine Soul Power.
There were intense fluctuations rising in succession.
It was likely that the experint was successful.
