The Two Disciples' Performance

"Qingshan, I heard from White Eyebrows that both of your disciples have entered this Genius Battle. Which World Districts are they in?" Yang asked, staring at the screen in front of his seat. To most instructors in the Secret Realm, Lu Qingshan's disciples were only the two: Lei Ming and Paris. Ling Yu was merely a student he guided; Lu Qingshan didn't count as a true teacher. Lu Qingshan had some teaching skill, that much was true, but he was completely unqualified to be compared with Silver Moon Marquis. "One is in World District 71, the other in World District 88." Lu Qingshan adjusted the live-stream video in front of him, first switching the live channel to World District 71. Yang likewise switched to World District 71 and said, "Their World Districts are rather far back." "Front or back doesn't matter. As long as they can pass the preliminaries, it's fine." Lu Qingshan said indifferently. Next, using the privileges of a Special-Class Instructor, he located Paris's position. To make it convenient for Special-Class Instructors and Undying Deities to watch the matches, the students of the Qianwu Secret Realm could be located at any time. So even among the billions of stars within a single World District, finding one's own disciple was a very easy matter. "This guy Paris—killing so fiercely on the very first day." Lu Qingshan had just switched the view over to Paris when a battle ended right at that moment—over a dozen geniuses had all been cut down by his twin blades. Yang said in surprise, "Paris has already charged into the top ten thousand. This kid is really ferocious, taking the lead right from the start..." Among these countless geniuses, quite a few were Spiritual Mind Masters, whose killing efficiency was even higher—like mowing grass, felling a whole swath with each sweep. To charge into the top ten thousand as a martial artist right at the outset was already very impressive. As time went on, the advantage of the Spiritual Mind Masters would weaken, because no matter how many they killed, it was useless—once one died, it all just amounted to doing the work for someone else's benefit. "Truly worthy of the Blade Race. This guy Paris is simply a born warrior." Watching Paris charge resolutely into a great army of geniuses, Yang sighed in admiration. "Paris is indeed impressive." Lu Qingshan did not stint in praising his disciple, then switched over to Lei Ming in District 88. Unlike Paris, Lei Ming's World District was a dense jungle, and the terrain was extremely favorable for hiding. At this moment, Lei Ming was tucked away inside the hollow of a towering tree. Currently... cultivating... "Haha, Brother Qingshan, these two disciples of yours really have contrasting temperaments—one kills desperately, the other hides away and quietly cultivates..." Lei Ming's hiding spot was excellent. After watching for a long while, the fellow still hadn't run into any opponent. Lu Qingshan could only switch the view again—he couldn't very well just sit there staring at Lei Ming cultivating. This time he came to World District 12. He had just switched the view over when he saw an astonishing scene. This was a great melee of hundreds of thousands of geniuses. In the crowd were Ling Yu's nine Illusion Bodies, each one holding a Wind Thunder Sword. The Wind Thunder Swords transformed into thousands upon thousands of sword beams. The geniuses in the melee fell in swaths, like harvested wheat. "Nine Illusion Bodies?" To think Ling Yu was hiding her strength in the preliminaries? But this was already enough. The first form of the Wind Thunder Sword was inherently powerful in slaughter, an area-damage skill. With nine Illusion Bodies striking together, the opponents across the vast arena were quickly all annihilated. Ling Yu seemed like a decisive war goddess; wherever she went, not a blade of grass survived! "Incredible!!" Yang let out a cry of amazement. In the hall, after Ling Yu resolved one melee, a buzz of discussion arose at once. Clearly, apart from a few instructors incidentally observing their own personal disciples, the attention of everyone else was fixed on Ling Yu, the Secret Realm's number one genius. Everyone knew that if you asked who in the Qianwu Secret Realm had hope, it could only be Ling Yu, the top-ranked genius. At this moment, Ling Yu's Points had already broken through two hundred thousand, temporarily ranking first in World District 12. "That movement technique Her Highness Ling Yu is using—Instructor Lu Qingshan created it himself, didn't he? This movement technique is truly extraordinary... Its application of the Lightning Law is meticulous and subtle. Even if one's comprehension of the Lightning Law isn't deep, one can still use this Secret Method to unleash a powerful evasive ability." An instructor present, one who also practiced the Lightning Origin Law, exclaimed in admiration, his gaze turning toward Lu Qingshan. They all knew that Lu Qingshan was Her Highness Ling Yu's sole instructor, and White Eyebrows had been one before him—but for some unknown reason, Silver Moon Marquis had revoked his instructor's qualification. "Right. When Her Highness Ling Yu trained before, she was very fond of this movement technique and practiced it with great diligence. Her nine Illusion Bodies have already reached a state where she can switch between them at will. It's just that she hasn't run into a real expert yet—if she does, you'll all see clearly." White Eyebrows also spoke with a chuckle. He was laughing inwardly. "You probably don't know that Her Highness Ling Yu has already gained entry into the Time Origin Law. The limit of this movement technique is far more than nine Illusion Bodies—otherwise you'd probably be even more shocked." Having been given a gag order by Silver Moon Marquis, he would not speak of such things until Her Highness Ling Yu actively revealed the Time Law. "What's commendable is that Instructor Qingshan didn't guard this Secret Method selfishly after creating it—he selflessly passed it on to all the students. My disciple learned this movement technique and rated it very highly!" ... "Hehe, Her Highness Ling Yu was already the Qianwu Secret Realm's number one genius to begin with. Listening to you all boast, it's as if Lu Qingshan was the one who made her number one?" At this moment, an untimely voice drifted over. Yang turned to look. "It's Blood Eye... What's gotten into this guy?" Lu Qingshan glanced at Blood Eye and shook his head, unconcerned. This fellow had gotten mixed up with Kunshaluo last time; probably to curry favor with Kunshaluo, he was likely saying this in public. Of course, everyone present was shrewd, and most basically knew that Lu Qingshan and Kunshaluo had a conflict, and that this Blood Eye World Master was on good terms with Kunshaluo, so he was undoubtedly saying it on purpose. Yang gave a cold snort. "Blood Eye, has Kunshaluo already agreed to take you on as a dog? Are you so happy to bite people for him?" Yang knew Marquis Mingguang and did not fear Kunshaluo, and even less would he care about this fellow Blood Eye. Though they were all World Masters recognized by the origin laws, there were huge gaps even among those who had gained origin law recognition. Sixty points is a passing grade, and ninety-nine points is also a passing grade... In terms of actual strength, Yang could easily crush Blood Eye World Master. "Yang, don't think that just because you're senior, you can humiliate people however you please!" Blood Eye's face turned livid; Yang's words had all but crushed his dignity into the ground. The other instructors watched all this with amusement. A few others looked at Blood Eye World Master with unfriendly expressions. They didn't want to offend Kunshaluo, but that didn't mean they supported him. As fellow Special-Class Instructors, they were the ones in the same circle. Blood Eye helping an outsider to suppress one of their own was, to the other instructors, undoubtedly a kind of betrayal!! "Lu Qingshan, can you only hide behind Yang? Do you dare to go up on the arena and have a match with me?" Blood Eye turned his words around, aiming at Lu Qingshan... wanting to corner him in front of everyone, so that he'd have no choice but to agree. "Hehe..." Lu Qingshan shook his head. Such a petty trick—of course he wouldn't fall for it. What benefit was there in dueling Blood Eye? No benefit at all; on the contrary, it would only expose his own strength. There was no point. He said with a smile, "Blood Eye, you know full well that I've only just broken through to World Master, yet you come to challenge me—but you don't dare compete with Brother Yang. This bullying the weak and fearing the strong—you've really learned it well from your master." Lu Qingshan hadn't refused outright, yet this made Blood Eye feel even worse than a flat refusal. The laughter of the other Special-Class Instructors struck his ears as all the more grating... "Hmph." Blood Eye gave a cold snort, his body vanishing on the spot, and he made no further mention of the duel.
