Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

Three years passed in the blink of an eye. The things Fang Jueyu, Bernard, and the others did in the Zinake Kingdom seemed to be sealed off as if no news came out at all. Meanwhile, Fang Jueyu's mentor, Wang Genji, also seemed to disappear during these three years, never showing up once.

It was the day they officially became students of the Cosmic Federation School. According to the regulations of each class, all students had the qualification to enter a Cosmic Secret Realm.

This Cosmic Secret Realm was almost identical in origin to the Root Universe, and some even suspected it was a part of the Root Universe that had split away. In this secret realm, the concentration of Cosmic Source Power even surpassed the levels deep within the Root Universe, making it a perfect place for martial artists to cultivate.

Led by a senior Controller, all the admitted students arrived at this Cosmic Secret Realm in an orderly fashion. Of course, this was rewarded with credits. Securing this advantageous task proved that his strength was well above that of an ordinary Controller.

As the spaceship door opened slowly, a brand new world unfolded before them. Before their eyes lay an endless city, with a towering mountain at its center, looking like a fairy mountain from afar.

"This place is really something!" All the martial artists took a deep breath of the air here. The dense Cosmic Source Power almost solidified, making them lose themselves in it.

"This is your identification," the senior handed them pieces of transparent glass, "Only with this pass can you enter this Cosmic Secret Realm. If you lose it, the patrol here will immediately throw you out, or even kill you!"

"Hiss!" Hearing this, everyone tightened their grip on this pass. They had just seen a squad of fully armed martial artists fly past them; even the weakest among them was probably a Controller.

"As freshmen, you can cultivate in any area on that Creator Mountain," the senior pointed at the high mountain, "The higher the mountain, the higher the concentration of Cosmic Source Power. At the top, it's even ten times this place!"

"Ten times!" Everyone was immediately amazed. The concentration of Cosmic Source Power here already surpassed the outside world by dozens of times. To be ten times denser was simply like a plug-in for cultivation.

"This secret realm isn't that simple," Fang Jueyu whispered, "Reaching the summit of that Creator Mountain probably isn't easy."

"Yes, this place likely has some special rules," Bernard nodded repeatedly, "If everyone could reach the peak, the Cosmic Source Power and space there wouldn't be able to support so many people."

"Senior, why is there a city here?" someone asked.

"Ten years later, you won't be able to stay in this secret realm anymore. If you want to stay, you have to pay with credits," the senior said. "You can earn credits by completing any tasks at school or by finding ways to earn credits in this city."

The senior added, "But here, you first need to learn how to survive and how to keep your credits. Otherwise, you'll probably be kicked out of this secret realm in ten years."

After saying all this, the senior completed his task, casually tore open the surrounding space, and disappeared before their eyes.

"What a strong guy." Fang Jueyu noticed that this martial artist's realm was only Controller level five, yet his understanding of Space Law far exceeded the Controllers he had hired before.

"Big Brother, I'm here!" Just as everyone was about to walk into the city, Kaiya waved towards the sky.

Everyone looked towards the sound and saw a few figures descending from the sky. They gazed down, arms crossed, observing the newcomers to this secret realm with rather interesting expressions.

"One Controller level six, two level five, and the remaining three are all level four. Cosmic Federation School's martial artists indeed can't be compared to ordinary martial artists," Fang Jueyu thought in surprise, "In outside civilizations, these martial artists could probably become a formidable force."

"This batch of freshmen is quite good, a few hundreds of Divinity Users at third level. Even in our batch, only a few Divinity Users reached the third level."

"Yes, it seems the recent exam in the Root Universe gave them quite an advantage."

"Hahaha, what use is that? Here, they're still just newcomers with the strength of Divinity Users. We can suppress them with ease."

"I wonder how much loot this batch can provide us."

"Jianasi, don't overdo it. These are the seniors' scores. It's okay to take some, but don't offend the seniors."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Kenoer, which one is your brother? Given your civilization's potential and foundation, he should be this year's champion, right?"

"Hahaha, of course, our Gustau civilization has won first place in the Cosmic Federation School entrance exam for seven consecutive years. This year won't be an exception either. Kaiya's potential is no less than mine."

...

These martial artists chatted openly, without any intention of lowering their voices. Listening to them, it seemed they wanted to rob them of their credits!

Everyone immediately tensed up. They had been repeatedly told how important credits were. Without enough credits, many resources in the school wouldn't be available to them.

"Big Brother!" Kaiya excitedly rushed forward. The sense of superiority that had vanished with Fang Jueyu's presence now reignited.

The martial artists from their Gustau civilization had already survived in this place for tens of thousands of years, even having some Transcenders among them. They had formed an organization in this secret realm that, while not ruling it entirely, certainly thrived.

Now, coming here, it felt as if he had found his group. With the support of the elders from his civilization, his status among this year's freshmen naturally soared.

"So, did you snag the first spot this time?" the leading Controller asked.

Kaiya lowered his head at once. He didn't even make it to the top three!

"What, is there someone stronger among this group?" Kenoer's expression turned seriously. He had just boasted, and now this result was a slap in the face.

Kaiya's gaze lingered on Fang Jueyu for a moment. Kenoer saw it and knew what had happened right away.

"You are this year's champion, right?" Kenoer asked from above.

"That's right. Is there something you need, Senior?"

"Not really, just here to tell you the rules of this Original City," Kenoer said, "All newcomers must hand over half of your credits as a tribute. Afterward, no one in this secret realm will make things difficult for you."

"Why should we? We earned these credits through hard work; you have no right to take them!"

"Bang!" An invisible fist instantly sent the martial artist sprawling, bleeding, and flying backward. Were it not for restraint, a Controller could have killed him easily.

"Aren't I clear enough?" Kenoer said, "These are rules set by the seniors, and we're just enforcing them. Or do you want the seniors to come and tell you themselves?"

"Senior..." Everyone's faces were filled with hesitation. To become seniors, their strength was absolutely far beyond theirs, possibly even including a Transcender. If such figures showed up, the outcome would be hard to manage.

"As for you, the first place comes with 10,000 credits, right?" Kenoer said, "Keep 2,000 for yourself and hand over the rest."

"Oh? What if I say no?" Fang Jueyu showed a hint of a mocking smile.

"Figures you'd be a tough nut," Kenoer seemed unsurprised by Fang Jueyu's defiance, "Looks like you need a lesson in respect for seniors."

"Oh? What kind of lesson? Why not show me first?"
