Chapter 1432 - 1432 The Seven Stellar Academies!
1432 The Seven Stellar Academies!
Ferya didn’t delve as deep as Wu Yuquan. She was overjoyed once the registry process was done, all smiles. She thanked the senior, “Uncle Wu, thank you. We couldn’t have done it as quickly without your help.”
Wu Yuquan smiled and waved a hand. “You’re too polite. Your father is a close friend of mine; it was just a small matter.”
Ferya chuckled. “We won’t bother you any longer. Visit us so we can have a drink next time. I found a rare light-element spiritual fruit on planet Light Velvet suitable for wine making. I think you’ll like it.”
The senior’s eyes lit up. “Wine made from light spiritual fruits is a good thing. I will be looking forward to it.”
“I’ll contact you when it’s done.” Ferya got up. “We’ll be on our way now.”
Wang Teng also got up. “Senior, thank you for your help. You can find me if you ever need anything in the future.”
They were able to have that universe stage warrior’s help them because of Ferya’s family, but our hero felt obliged, since he received the same treatment.
“No problem.” Wu Yuquan didn’t belittle the offer after learning more of his identity.
However, the senior didn’t think he would need his help. The difference in their abilities was vast, and his status was high. He could do anything Wang Teng could.
Mutual help existed when both parties had similar conditions.
Wang Teng noticed Wu Yuquan’s expression and smiled. He kept his own counsel.
The man was willing to give the young man some face. He replied with a smile, “You don’t have to call me senior. Since you’re Ferya’s friend, just call me Uncle Wu.”
He had high hopes for the lad, and his status in the Great Qian Empire was extraordinary. Moreover, he was young; he had a bright future ahead.
The current Wang Teng was probably not as important, but he had to pay attention to his future version.
Ferya glanced at Wu Yuquan in surprise. The latter was using her as an excuse, but she knew that not everyone would receive such a treatment.
Uncle and Senior were just forms of address, but the difference was huge.
This meant that Uncle Wu acknowledged him.
Looks like his status is higher than I thought.
“Let me send you off.” Wu Yuquan got up. He was acting completely unlike a universe warrior should.
He sent them to the door and watched them as they disappeared from the virtual universe. Then, he smiled. Things are getting interesting. He turned and also disappeared from the virtual universe.
He had gone there just to help Ferya and Wang Teng with their registration. He wouldn’t have needed to go there personally otherwise.
…
Back on planet Light Velvet, in Ferya’s universe spacecraft—Wang Teng and Ferya walked out of the virtual reality cabins.
They exchanged glances and heaved sighs of relief.
The planet’s registration was finalized. No one else could lay their hands on the remote planet anymore.
Ferya glanced at Wang Teng from the corner of her eyes and said, “Hey, shouldn’t you thank me?”
“Yes, yes. It’s all thanks to you.” Wang Teng obliged. The job was done, so he didn’t mind satisfying her starved ego.
Ferya wasn’t happy. She felt that he was coaxing a child.
She snorted softly and changed the topic, “When are you leaving?”
“Since all matters are solved, I’m planning to leave today.” His constellation light force was at the ninth level of the celestial stage already. There was no point in staying any longer.
“That’s fast,” Ferya exclaimed.
“The Great Qian Empire’s League of Talents is about to start,” Wang Teng said.
“The League of Talents. I see. You’re going to participate.” The girl was surprised; she was suddenly reminded of something. She scratched her head and said, “Wait, I think my grandfather signed me up for the Pan-Cosmic Alliance’s League of Talents previously.”
“The Pan-Cosmic Alliance also has a League of Talents?” It was Wang Teng’s turn to be surprised.
Round Ball’s voice was suddenly heard. “Actually, every high-tier civilization in the universe would be eligible to host the event. All of them are held at the same time.”
“Held at the same time?” Wang Teng’s eyes narrowed while thinking about this. He then asked, “Is there a meaning behind this?”
“I didn’t want to distract you, which was why I didn’t want to tell you about this so soon. But let me brief you, now that you have met a talent from another place,” Round Ball said, “The reason why the major forces in the universe hold the League of Talents at the same time is to select candidates for the Seven Stellar Academies.”
“The Seven Stellar Academies!” Wang Teng was taken aback.
The little one explained, “Seven academies in different parts of the universe; they gather countless talents and prodigies from all around the cosmos. They are ancient, and no one even knows who founded them. All that is known is that they send emissaries to travel around the universe every once in a while to recruit talents.”
“Why didn’t I know about these Stellar Academies?” Wang Teng frowned.
Round Ball paused for a while and continued. “This is because they are extremely mysterious. No one knows where their territories are located. The prospects selected will have to be personally guided by the instructors before they can even enter
“Even the students who come out of those academies kept the secret. If no one specifically mentions it, only a few would know about the academies’ existence.
“Even I know only a little bit about the Seven Stellar Academies.” The small fellow shook its head.
“I never thought such a thing existed. The Olant Federation’s Saint Star Pagoda is just like an ant in comparison,” Wang Teng exclaimed.
“The Saint Star Pagoda?” Round Ball sneered. “Please don’t bother; they are incomparable. Even the Great Qian Academy wouldn’t hold a candle to them.”
Wang Teng looked at Round Ball in surprise, not expecting the latter to be as deferential to those academies. It was a rare sight. “Speaking of which, my visit to the Great Qian Academy was delayed due to various reasons. Otherwise, I might have had the opportunity to represent them in the League of Talents.”
Round Ball seemed to have remembered something interesting and smiled. “If they ever learned that you initially wanted to enter the Great Qian Academy, but ended up running off to the military… what would they think of you?”
Wang Teng shook his head; he didn’t feel there was anything wrong about it. There had been no ties with them, so naturally, he had no regrets about his choices.
The inner conversation with Round Ball ended fairly quickly. Only a few moments had passed in Ferya’s eyes.
“Oh no, how could I forget. I have to rush back immediately, or my grandfather will punish me,” Ferya said in a hurry.
Wang Teng couldn’t help but laugh. She was the one saying he was in a hurry, but now, she was the anxious one.
He shook his head and said, “Go back. Tell the grand elder and the others. We should go.”
“Okay!” Ferya nodded in a hurry, feeling more anxious than the latter. The distance between the Pan-Cosmic Alliance and planet Light Velvet was greater.
Both of them exited the ship and headed towards the tribe ground, forming two streaks of light.
They found the grand elder and revealed their intentions to leave.
“Leaving already?” The grand elder was astonished.
It was too sudden!
He initially thought that Wang Teng and Ferya would stay for a few days after registering the planet. He wasn’t expecting them to leave right away.
“Yes. The planet’s registration has been completed, and we have some matters to attend. We have to leave soon,” Wang Teng explained.
“The planet already registered? So fast!” The old leader was surprised.
The young man glanced at Ferya and said, “Things went smoothly with the help of Ferya’s family. It wouldn’t have been as fast otherwise.”
He then turned on his wristwatch and showed the grand elder that planet Light Velvet was now registered under Ferya’s and his name. No one else could lay claim on it anymore.
Once he read it, the grand elder heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Ferya, thank you so much.”
Ferya waved a hand. “It’s nothing. I am also benefiting from having ownership of the planet. I should do something in return.”
The grand elder stopped there, seeing that both youngsters did have urgent things to do.
The other chiefs also heard news of their departure and rushed over to see them off.
Rong Li looked at Wang Teng and said with some reluctance, “Why leave in such a hurry? I wanted to invite you to stay in our tribe for a few days.”
The young hero had saved their tribe. They had yet to find a chance to thank him properly.
“I have something to take care of, so I have to leave.” Wang Teng smiled. “But I will definitely come back in the future, now that planet Light Velvet is registered under my name. There will be a day when we get together again.”
The grand elder beckoned the others behind him and said, “Wang Teng’s right. It’s not like we won’t see each other again. There’s no need for everyone to be like this.”
The light velvet people stepped forward, holding various spiritual items of the light element. Spiritual flowers and herbs, and some interesting, glowing ores, packed with the power of light.
There were even some spiritual items stored in a white jade box. There were mysterious runes carved onto the casing, intended to prevent energy from leaking out.
Those were obviously different from the rest!
“I know that you two need light-element items, so we prepared these things,” the grand elder said.
“We do need these things. Thank you, grand elder.” Wang Teng and Ferya readily accepted.
The old leader made a dismissive motion. “Planet Light Velvet will rely on both of you in the future. There’s no need to thank me.”
He had already thought about it. From then on, the planet was led by Wang Teng and Ferya.
Only then could they survive in the universe and develop in a better way.
“Grand elder, I will leave a cosmos level spacecraft for you. If there’s anything, contact me via the ship’s virtual reality cabin.” Wang Teng had already made preparations, already teaching the natives how to use the craft and the virtual reality cabin a few days prior.
“A cosmos level spacecraft!” Ferya was a little stunned.
Before she could react—the young hero waved a hand and the cosmos level ship appeared in the sky.
The girl’s eyes widened, as if she had just seen a ghost.
“You have a high-capacity space ring?” she asked in astonishment.
Wang Teng glanced at her and replied casually, “The space is not that large.”
The ship wasn’t as massive. It was stored within the Flaming River’s docking area, and the larger ship was stored in the Flaming River Ring, a legacy from the Flaming River Universe Lord.
The ring was the legacy’s greatest harvest. Not only did it contain various treasures left by the renowned universe lord, it was an item with a gigantic space, which allowed Wang Teng to always take the great ship with him.
Ferya thought that Wang Teng only had a space ring with enough room for the ship that just appeared.
Even so, it was already large enough for her; she didn’t have a ring with that much capacity.
Not even a talent like her, raised by a powerful family, had a similar treasure, which showed how rare it was. Wang Teng could only act extravagantly using other people’s legacies.
What surprised her even more was his excessively generous nature.
That was a cosmos level spacecraft, worth at least tens of billions of universe coins. He simply gave it to the light velvet people, just like that.
Rich and powerful!
