Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Wang Teng reached the peak of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain.

Everyone was flabbergasted. Yuan Mu, Zhulong Shan, and the others were filled with unwillingness. Wu Yan, Lu Tian, Baichuan Liu, and the other talented martial warriors were in awe too.

This guy was truly extraordinary!

Though they were reluctant to admit it, they were indeed trailing behind Wang Teng by a considerable margin.

Only when observed from the outside did they realize the vast distance still separating them from the mountaintop.

They were simply unable to reach the summit.

Yet, Wang Teng had achieved the impossible. He surpassed them all, climbing to the pinnacle—a feat beyond the reach of all geniuses.

Such a disparity left many prodigies feeling powerless.

On the other side, the president and the two god-stage martial warriors were surprised. He had reached the peak. Amazing.

The young man completely deciphered the Spiritual Hollow Mountain on his own, surpassing even the previous genius who had accomplished a similar feat.

“I’m a lightning element, earth element, and metal element martial warrior. I can teach this brat,” the god-stage martial warrior on the Lightning Throne slapped the armrest and said loudly.

“Hmph, Wang Teng has a divine flame. A fire-element martial warrior like me is the most suitable to guide him.” The god-stage martial warrior on the Fire Throne chuckled.

“What’s the big deal with the divine flame? My Lightning, Earth, and Metal powers are immensely powerful. Coupled with my profound techniques, I can make him a formidable force,” boasted the god-stage martial warrior on the Lightning Throne.

“Your words are biased. His possession of the divine flame is an advantage, and it would be unwise to ignore it. If he combines it with my techniques and martial arts, his divine flame will exhibit its greatest power, far surpassing ordinary lightning forces,” argued the god-stage martial warrior on the Flame Throne.

The surrounding eternal-stage powerhouses were left stunned. Just as Wang Teng reached the summit of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain, the two god-stage powerhouses were already eager to compete to be his master.

Such a situation was extremely rare in the history of the Seventh Stellar Academy.

No, it should be said that such situations were extremely rare in the history of the Seven Stellar Academies. Only those truly peerless geniuses could compel god-stage powerhouses to set aside their pride and vie for discipleship.

“No need to argue, 1 have decided to personally take Wang Teng as my disciple,” said the president of the Seventh Stellar Academy, gently stroking his beard with a smile.

The two god-stage martial warriors were shocked.

The eternal-stage martial warriors around them looked at the president in astonishment too.

The president hadn’t personally taken a disciple for a long time.

This time, he was making an exception for Wang Teng!

Sikong The Second couldn’t help but be amazed when he saw this scene. Wang Teng was impressive.

When he learned that the other had ascended to the Star Rankings, he knew that the rise of this young genius was only a matter of time. However, he didn’t expect it to happen so quickly.

Becoming the president’s disciple would significantly elevate Wang Teng’s identity and background.

Many major forces would start to regard him with a hint of apprehension, and older-generation powerhouses might hesitate to act against him.

Wang Teng would also gain considerable growth time with this status.

“President, you have many things to attend to every day. Don’t tire yourself out. Leave this hard work to us,” the being on the Flame Throne said.

“That’s right. President, you’re the face of the Seventh Stellar Academy, overseeing everything. Teaching disciples is a trivial matter that doesn’t require your personal attention,” added the powerhouse on the Lightning Throne.

The president could only laugh wryly. Just as he was about to say something, his brow suddenly furrowed.

On the mountaintop of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain, Wang Teng’s figure unexpectedly vanished.

The president and the two god-stage martial warriors exchanged glances with one another. Rising from their thrones, they seemed to have a sudden realization.

“What happened?”

The eternal-stage martial warriors around were greatly surprised, furrowing their brows as they looked toward the mountaintop of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain.

“Why did Wang Teng disappear?” Tong En and the others were still in shock. They were stunned when Wang Teng suddenly disappeared.

Yuan Mu, Zhulong Shan, and the others didn’t know what happened either.

They stared at the peak of the mountain with puzzled expressions.

Did Wang Teng go to claim the mysterious reward?

Only the president and the others knew that the so-called mystery reward was just a diversion. In reality, it wasn’t at the mountaintop of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain. If someone truly reached the summit, the president wouldn’t mind presenting some items as a reward for the achievement.

For beings of their caliber, even a small token would be considered a rare treasure to ordinary cosmos-stage martial warriors.

At this moment, the president and the others wore extremely grave expressions, indicating that Wang Teng’s disappearance had nothing to do with them.

“I heard that the creator of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain left behind some tricks,” the god-stage entity on the Flame Throne contemplated for a moment, hesitatingly speaking.

This information was ancient, obscure, and known to very few.

Some even regarded it as mere rumor, as no one had truly triggered it.

Even the last genius who reached the summit didn’t activate any hidden mechanisms at the mountaintop.

As time passed, many had forgotten about this piece of information. Even though every batch of freshmen would use the Spiritual Hollow Mountain for their test, no one thought of the small tricks hidden inside.

Upon hearing this, the president seemed to recall something, his eyes flashing with a hint of shock. “It seems that Wang Teng indeed triggered the hidden mechanism in the Spiritual Hollow Mountain.”

The two god-stage martial warriors glanced at each other. They were even more astounded.

“Do you know what the triggering conditions are?” the god-stage entity on the Flame Throne inquired.

“No one knows.” The president regretfully shook his head. His eyes flashed with a glint of brilliance, staring deeply at the Spiritual Hollow Mountain. “Come, let’s take a look?”

As he spoke, he vanished from his original position and appeared instantly at the summit of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain.

The two god-stage entities, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes, followed the president into the Spiritual Hollow Mountain, directly arriving at the peak.

Witnessing this scene, the onlookers were astonished.

What on earth was happening? Even the president and the others personally ascended to the summit of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain!

From the looks of the president and the others, it seemed that they were also unaware of what was going on. Could it be that there was no reward?

Many people were left puzzled. They had no idea about the mysteries of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain. No matter how they speculated, they couldn’t fathom that Wang Teng had triggered some hidden mechanism in the Spiritual Hollow Mountain.

The only thing they could guess was that it was definitely not simple, as it had alarmed the president and the others.

Yuan Mu, Zhulong Shan, and the others blinked continuously. They felt uneasy, wondering if Wang Teng was about to stir up trouble again.

They had already been hit hard, and they didn’t want to face another setback.

Tong En and the others discussed in low voices. They didn’t know what happened either.

“Why do 1 feel like Wang Teng is about to cause trouble again?” Yue Qiqiao mused, speaking with a sense of foreboding.

Everyone felt speechless.

The way you’re talking, it sounds like Wang Teng frequently causes trouble. How much distrust do you have for him?

But, after thinking about it carefully, they felt that it was true.

Whenever Wang Teng was mentioned, it invariably brought to mind his penchant for mischief, like he was never at peace.

Wang Teng looked around in confusion. He found himself at the foot of another mountain.

Looking up, he was surprised to see a peak even higher and steeper than the Spiritual Hollow Mountain.

What was going on?

Hadn’t he just climbed to the summit of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain?

Why was he now at the foot of another mountain?

This mountain in front of him was clearly not the Spiritual Hollow Mountain, but it gave him a familiar feeling. There seemed to be some kind of binding force, preventing flight and confining him within the mountain’s range.

However, it was different.

The two mountains were not the same.

“Oh my god!”

Wang Teng raised his hand to his forehead, gazing at the mountain’s peak in silence. “What is this? Are they making me climb again?”

He had just finished climbing the Spiritual Hollow Mountain, and before he could even rejoice, it seemed he was about to embark on another ascent. This felt like a joke.

ii

No, wait.”

Wang Teng suddenly furrowed his brows, examining his own body with a serious expression.

“This is not my real body. It’s just a spiritual projection.”

Someone had silently transported his spiritual form to this place, but his physical body remained in an unknown location.

Even Wang Teng, typically calm and collected, felt a bit uneasy in this situation.

He was brought here for no reason and his spirit left his body. No one would be able to accept this.

Taking two deep breaths to maintain composure, he scanned the surroundings.

The place seemed eerily similar to the previous situation. The surroundings were indeed similar to the previous scenario, with a solitary mountain and a vast emptiness.

This mountain seemed to float in the depths of the universe.

This scene reminded Wang Teng of a saying.

There are mountains beyond mountains and skies beyond skies!

Wasn’t this mountain in front of him another peak beyond the Spiritual Hollow Mountain? Wasn’t this sky around him an even greater expanse?

So?

Was he going to continue climbing the mountain?

Wang Teng felt a bit exasperated. Just when he thought he had finished climbing the Spiritual Hollow Mountain, he was being forced to embark on another ascent. He couldn’t take it anymore.

Also, climbing this mountain might be dangerous.

Approaching the edge, he peered down. Rocks tumbled, but no sound reached his ears. It seemed like an endless abyss below.

If he were to fall during the climb, he would undoubtedly face certain death.

Moreover, he had no idea what this mountain was all about.

Perhaps it had nothing to do with the talent test of the academy. Climbing this mountain might be a futile endeavor.

Wang Teng decided to sit cross-legged at the foot of the mountain, closing his eyes to meditate. Regardless of the circumstances, he refused to climb.

If someone could silently transport his spiritual form here without him resisting, then resisting might be futile if something happened.

Furthermore, the Seventh Stellar Academy’s president and other powerful figures were outside the Spiritual Hollow Mountain. If he vanished inexplicably, they would surely take action.

So, he waited.

At the foot of the mountain, life seemed to return to the surroundings due to Wang Teng’s appearance.

But, as he sat like a stone, the area fell back into silence

At the mountain’s summit, a figure clad in simple garments sat cross-legged, facing the distant void, seemingly lost in contemplation. Motionless, like a carved stone statue, the person remained in that position.

“After countless ages, someone has finally arrived at this place!”

After an indeterminate period, a hint of emotion flickered in their eyes, accompanied by a soft sigh.

“But…”

Lowering their head, as if observing the situation at the mountain’s base, a faint smile graced their lips.. “Quite an interesting little fellow!”
