Reign Supreme：The Rise of the Eternal Sovereign

The next day, before dawn, Chen Sheng and Ning woke up simultaneously with great tacit understanding.The two washed up and went to the backyard. They sat cross - legged side by side and started their daily essential practice: cultivating profound qi.

In the Sacred Continent, the martial atmosphere is extremely prosperous. Everyone cultivates profound qi. Don't be surprised if you bump into an old man on the street who is a third - level battle master or encounter a charming woman who is a fourth - level battle general.

The cultivation levels on the continent are clearly defined. There are first - level battle warriors, second - level battle soldiers, third - level battle masters, fourth - level battle generals, fifth - level battle commanders, and sixth - level battle lords... Each realm is further divided into early, middle, and late stages. Different realms possess different powers. Ning, a high - level battle master, has the strength equivalent to that of seventy tigers. Of course, as the realm rises, not only does the strength increase, but also speed, agility, reaction, and defense become more powerful.

Battle warriors and battle soldiers both temper their physical bodies, refining the skin and bones. Only when reaching the battle master realm can one officially enter the hall of martial cultivators.

Cultivating profound qi!

Battle masters begin to cultivate profound qi. By using miraculous cultivation techniques, they absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and convert it into profound qi within their bodies. Thanks to this miraculous profound qi, the physical bodies of martial cultivators possess terrifying power, faster speed, and stronger defense.

Last night, although Chen Sheng attacked the weakest part of the split - earth tiger's abdomen, if there was no circulation of profound qi in his hand, it would definitely not have been so easy to pierce through.

Chen Sheng and Ning sat cross - legged on the ground, eyes closed and eyebrows drooping. The two breathed rhythmically, their breaths long and far - reaching. As they breathed, a faint cyan glow emerged on the surface of their bodies, which was quite mysterious.

An hour and a half later, the eastern sky turned fish - belly white, and the crowing of roosters came from Qingniu Town. Daybreak had arrived!

Chen Sheng opened his eyes. Ning beside him had already disappeared. In the backyard, there was an additional woman, a beautiful and gentle woman sitting in a wheelchair.

"Aunt!"

Chen Sheng had a warm smile on his face. This woman always made him feel warm and at ease.

"Let's have breakfast! Ning has already prepared it."

Aunt smiled faintly and wheeled her wheelchair towards the middle room. Chen Sheng followed behind with steady steps.

After breakfast, Chen Sheng rode his donkey towards the royal city. Ning continued to run wildly in the backyard while holding a huge boulder. Aunt sat in the front yard, reading a book in the gentle sunlight. This had been the comfortable life of a paralytic, a fool, and Chen Sheng for the past year.

Chen Sheng ignored the strange looks in the combat academy. He tied his donkey in the stable, entered the schoolroom, found his exclusive corner, and buried his head to sleep.

For him, the boring studies in the combat academy were not as beneficial as going to Devil Mountain for training. If it weren't for his aunt, he might never have entered this kind of combat academy where noble descendants show off and flirt, and where common - origin martial cultivators scramble like dogs to rise to a higher position.

So, in the past six months in the combat academy, during the morning literature classes, he had always slept in this corner. In the afternoon martial arts classes, he either hid in the grass in a daze or cultivated profound qi. At night, he went to the arena for life - and - death battles.

"Dong dong!"

Several impolite knocks on the table interrupted Chen Sheng's slumber. Chen Sheng groggily raised his head and saw a haughty and pretty face.

Wu You, Wu Hui's cousin!

"Miss Bu, what's the matter?"

Chen Sheng scanned the surroundings. Sure enough, several people were looking over with mocking smiles. Feeling somewhat annoyed inside, he could only feign fear and ask.

"Chen Sheng, seventeen years old, a middle - level battle soldier, lives in Qingniu Town. There's a paralytic and a fool in your family. Is this information correct?"

Wu You looked down at the ordinary - looking man in front of her. She couldn't understand why Sister Xiaoman had behaved so strangely yesterday. Such a low - class martial cultivator from a poor family was only fit to be a laborer, a servant, or a watchdog for their family.

Wu Hui didn't come to the combat academy today, but Wu You thought she had to do something to show the Wei family an attitude, indicating that her young lady had just made a well - meaning joke

So, without waiting for Chen Sheng to reply, she continued disdainfully, "You should be well aware that you're a toad, so don't even dream of eating swan meat. Do you understand what I mean?"

Chen Sheng smiled, a bright smile that made his eyes narrow. He nodded firmly and said, "I understand!"

Wu You raised her head and walked away, puffing out her not - very - prominent chest. Chen Sheng buried his head and slept again. However, under the square table, his fingernails dug deep into his palm, causing a sharp pain.

It's true that he could instantly kill the split - earth tiger, that he could punch and send Wei Gong flying, and that he had experienced countless life - and - death battles since childhood and had his hands stained with a lot of blood. But he was even more clear about his purpose in coming to the combat academy. For his aunt, he could only endure. He had to obtain the Phoenix Feather Pill!

For him, his aunt was everything!

In his mind, he recalled countless scenes of his aunt taking him on the run and being hunted down since childhood. He remembered the scenes of his aunt teaching him cultivation and martial arts hand in hand, and the scene of that beautiful woman holding him and silently weeping in the middle of the night...

He was a time - traveler, someone who didn't belong to this world. But because of that beautiful woman, he had a sense of belonging to this world.

Since childhood, he had secretly sworn that in this life, he would work hard in cultivation, protect that woman, give her the best life, and never let... her shed a single tear!

"Whoosh!"

Chen Sheng, who was lost in memories, was awakened by a commotion in the schoolroom. He looked up in surprise. His eyes suddenly narrowed, and then his body shrank as well. He huddled in the corner, afraid of being discovered.

The schoolroom was already full of people, several hundred in total. At this moment, over two hundred male students were all staring foolishly at a person who was walking in slowly.

A woman, an extremely beautiful and charming woman in every way, Ms. Li!

Chen Sheng shook his head with a bitter smile. As soon as Miss Xu entered, she immediately spotted him, and a glimmer of a smile flashed in her autumn - water - like eyes.

This woman was coming for him!

Chen Sheng, who had grown up with wild beasts and experienced countless battles, had an extremely keen intuition. He didn't understand what this woman was doing in the combat academy, but he knew it definitely wasn't a good thing.

Sure enough!

Ms. Li walked leisurely to the front of the schoolroom, looked around at the students below, and was very satisfied with the shocked expressions on their faces when she made her entrance. She said softly, "My name is Li Yue. From today on, I'm your tutor, the tutor for literature classes, and I'm also in charge of the league of combat academies in ten western cities in a month."

Countless people below were stunned. Some noble - origin martial cultivators recognized this extremely charming beauty.

A tutor?

What could she teach? How to roll around in bed? Or perhaps teach some lascivious postures?

Those who didn't know were confused. With such a beauty as their tutor, would they still be able to learn anything in the future? Just looking at her every day would be enough, and there would be no need to learn anything else...

Chen Sheng wasn't surprised that this woman was so powerful and could suddenly become his tutor. What he was worried about was that this woman would create many uncertainties for him to obtain the Phoenix Feather Pill.

This was a poppy flower, poisonous!

So, Chen Sheng very low - key covered his head and huddled in the corner, burying his head to sleep. He was determined not to have any extraordinary interactions with this woman.

The tutor's robe of the academy looked uniquely charming on Ms. Li. She ignored the intense gazes of the male students and the jealous and complex looks of the female students. She cleared her throat and said, "In today's first class, I will explain to you about soul warriors."

"Whoosh..."

There was another commotion. Even Chen Sheng, who was covering his head, slightly raised his head, and a glimmer of eagerness appeared in his eyes.

Many noble - origin martial cultivators were astonished, while common - origin martial cultivators were all extremely excited.

Soul warriors!

These were the most powerful warriors in the Sacred Continent!

Many people had heard of them, but common - origin martial cultivators knew nothing about the details. Even some noble - origin martial cultivators only had a superficial understanding. They only knew that there were five powerful people in the royal city, and all five were soul warriors. In the Wu Dynasty, there were also five peak - level powerhouses famous throughout the Sacred Continent, and they were all soul warriors.

In the Sacred Continent, soul warriors were the symbol of power!

Li Yue was very satisfied with the reactions of these young men and women below, especially satisfied with Chen Sheng's slight movement of raising his head in the corner. She continued, "Our continent is called the Sacred Continent. The masters of the continent are soul warriors. All the people on the continent have the souls of ancient gods in their minds. When they reach the age of eighteen, they will have a chance to awaken. After awakening, they will become soul warriors."

"After becoming a soul warrior, your cultivation speed will double. And depending on the different attributes of your soul, you will awaken a soul - based combat technique. For example, the head of the Wei family, Wei Xiaoxiong, has a Blazing Soul. With his soul skills and his mid - level battle lord strength, he can easily defeat any ordinary martial cultivator at the battle lord realm..."

"Once you awaken as a soul warrior, you will be conferred the title of baron by the dynasty and receive a salary of three hundred dan. It can be said that as long as you don't die prematurely and your soul isn't useless, even the lowest - level human - rank soul will ensure that you have a prosperous life..."

"Every year on the Soul Festival, martial cultivators who are eighteen years old can go to the Soul Pavilion in each city to awaken their souls. Many of you are close to eighteen years old. What I want to tell you is that the higher the realm you reach before the age of eighteen, the higher the chance of awakening your soul..."

In the schoolroom, except for Li Yue's soft and gentle voice, it was completely silent. All the martial cultivators, regardless of gender, whether from common - origin or noble - origin families, even forgot to look at Miss Xu's extremely charming face. They all listened attentively, afraid of missing a single word.

Although women were beautiful, soul warriors were more alluring than women. Because everyone present was a martial cultivator! And soul warriors... were the most fanatical pursuit in the hearts of all martial cultivators!

As long as you became a soul warrior, money, beauty, and power would be within easy reach!

"Alright, today's literature class ends here. In a month, there will be a major competition in the combat academy. The five strongest people will represent the combat academy to participate in the league of ten western cities. The Medicine King has said that if the combat academy ranks in the top three this time, the person who makes the greatest contribution will be rewarded with a Phoenix Feather Pill, and the others will also receive generous rewards. All students, work hard!"

Li Yue smiled charmingly and walked towards the door of the schoolroom. At the door, she suddenly stopped. A glimmer of playfulness flashed in her eyes. She pointed at Chen Sheng in the left - hand corner and said, "That student, you actually dare to sleep in my class? Come with me. I will educate you well on behalf of your family."

Swish, swish, swish!

All eyes turned to Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng cursed inwardly. With a dark face, under countless gazes of either schadenfreude or envy and jealousy, he obediently followed.
