Chapter 639

Lin Qi appeared again, frowning as he looked at his ranking.

When he was in the Aperture-Refining Realm, his first impact on the Lieyang List reached the top 100.

But in the Air-Traversing Realm, it didn't work; it was also the third gate of Lieyang Mountain, and he could only rank 345th.

Among all galaxy-level geniuses, he was also ranked in the back.

However, this also explained a problem, which was that there were more Air-Traversing Realm experts.

Top experts suppressed their realms, occupying the front rankings, and at the same time, Aperture-Refining Realm geniuses also successively broke through to the Air-Traversing Realm.

Finally, there were more and more Air-Traversing Realm geniuses, and the competition for rankings became more and more crazy.

However, this also made Lin Qi high-spirited; before the Deep Space Genius Competition, he had to rush into the top 50, or even the top thirty.

Otherwise, what would he use to compete with geniuses from other top-tier forces?

Finally, he looked at his golden panel.

【You fought with insect warriors, had new comprehension of the spear technique "World-Destroying Spear Canon", spear technique greatly improved, spear technique +1%】

【You fought with insect warriors, had new comprehension of the body technique "Thunder Extreme Nine Flashes", body technique greatly improved, body technique +1%】

【Spear technique: Fifth stage 80% -> Fifth stage 81%】

【Body technique: Fifth stage 77% -> Fifth stage 78%】

Today's battle gave him no small pressure, successfully stimulating his potential and allowing his martial arts techniques to improve.

If he practiced like this, in a few months, he would be able to comprehend the killing move of "Golden Edge Chapter"—Thousand Mountain Crack!

Then he could focus on preparing to break through to the sixth-stage spear technique.

Then he chose to exit Lieyang Mountain.

In front of Lieyang Mountain,

Sun Sheng and Li Tianxing came out early.

The two were waiting for Lin Qi, and at the same time, their eyes were also on the Lieyang List.

"Sun Sheng, Li Tianxing!"

Suddenly someone called them; looking up, it was Augustus, Andre, Ajay, and Qin Shuang.

Sun Sheng nodded and said: "You guys also came to break into Lieyang Mountain?"

Augustus nodded and said: "The Deep Space Genius Competition is getting closer and closer; we must hone our martial arts techniques well."

"Why aren't you going in?"

Li Tianxing explained: "Waiting for Lin Qi; this is his first impact on Lieyang Mountain after breaking through to the Air-Traversing Realm."

Once these words were spoken, several people didn't leave either, staying on the spot waiting to see Lin Qi's ranking.

"With Lin Qi's strength, the first impact, the top 1000 should be no problem."

"I think so too."

Li Tianxing shook his head and said: "I think at least the top 500!"

"It rose!" Qin Shuang suddenly said.

Everyone looked up and saw that Lin Qi's name on the ranking had risen in one breath from 1200th to 345th.

Sun Sheng widened his eyes and said: "It's truly incredible, actually rushed to 345th?"

"Lin Qi, this guy, is really exaggerated; many veteran Air-Traversing Realm martial artists have this strength."

Augustus sighed: "This ranking, among all Air-Traversing Realm martial artists in our Blue Star, can also rank 4th; only 3 people are ranked ahead of him."

"He surpassed 99% of geniuses in one breath; now only War God and Ice and Snow Emperor are ranked ahead of him."

"Doesn't this mean that Overlord and Senior Ganges Zunzhe have also been surpassed?"

Others were shocked after hearing this.

Just broke through and surpassed old seniors; this was really too exaggerated.

You don't know until you look; you get a shock when you look.

Lin Qi directly became the 4th existence in terms of combat power in the entire Blue Star.

While everyone was surprised, they also felt heavy pressure.

"Everyone is here!"

At this time, a familiar voice came; turning around, it was Lin Qi they were discussing.

Sun Sheng directly hammered Lin Qi's chest and said.

"You guy, without a sound, actually rushed to 345th; it's really too exaggerated."

"Even Overlord, Ganges Zunzhe, and Senior Shanhe Wang were surpassed by you?"

Lin Qi looked at the ranking and realized that he had already surpassed many old seniors.

He was now ranked 4th in Blue Star combat power; only the Red Emperor, War God, and Ice and Snow Emperor were stronger than him.

Among them, the Ice and Snow Emperor found heavenly treasures a few days ago, successfully awakened the third ability, and became a galaxy-level genius.

So he said: "If Overlord, Ganges Zunzhe, and the others can also awaken the third ability, they can also surpass me."

"Just like the Ice and Snow Emperor."

Andre nodded and said: "My teacher originally only awakened two abilities and could condense at most 6 source veins."

"But after taking the Cold Marrow Fruit, he successfully awakened the third ability, not only improving combat power but also reshaping the foundation, raising the upper limit, and being able to condense two more source veins."

"The gap between two abilities and three abilities is too big."

Qin Shuang said: "It is said that now Senior Overlord and the others, people from the Liuren civilization, are all going crazy to the depths of the trial planet."

"Everyone wants to awaken three abilities."

"I want to too; I have already planned to go to the trial planet."

Augustus also nodded: "We are about the same!"

They also saw the hope of talent transformation and were unwilling to let it go.

Although they could continue to condense source veins, it was impossible to go further in the Deep Space Genius Competition.

Galaxy-level geniuses and ordinary geniuses have a qualitative gap.

Once able to transform into a galaxy-level genius, it is a step up, and there is hope of entering a supreme force.

So they all went crazy.

And Lin Qi himself also wanted Blue Star to give birth to a few more galaxy-level geniuses.

He looked at the ranking again and saw that the person behind him, 346th, was Troy.

And after that, Liu Ming was ranked 698th, not as strong as some geniuses who awakened two abilities.

He broke through three months earlier than him, and now he was easily surpassed by him.

And in front of him, there were still a few acquaintances, such as 320th Fraser, 323rd Unida, 327th Hobbs.

Their rankings were very close to him.

With his talent, a few months of time was enough to surpass them all.

After surpassing them, his goal would switch to the War God and Ice and Snow Emperor who were at the top of the ranking.

Then, after chatting for a while, several people separated.

Trial planet, in a primeval forest.

A Falcon fighter jet was hidden, and no disaster beast discovered it.

And in the fighter jet, Shanhe Wang, who was burly and tall, wearing a silver battle armor, opened his eyes.

"Didn't expect that this day would come so fast!"

"How strong is this kid Lin Qi's talent?"

"Just broke through, and he surpassed me, a person who condensed 5 source veins."

He couldn't help but sigh.

He stood up, his expression determined, and muttered to himself:

"It's still because of the gap in talent; if I could become a galaxy-level genius, perhaps I could also enter the top 100."

"So I must awaken three abilities."

"It is said that in the nest of the tenth-stage monster beast Steel Earth Dragon, there are a large number of earth-attribute heavenly treasures; maybe there is what I need."

"I have to find someone to join forces!"

They all knew that there were good things in the nests of tenth-stage monster beasts, but unless several Air-Traversing Realm martial artists joined forces, they couldn't kill the other party.

Only Universe Second Realm powerhouses could easily kill tenth-stage monster beasts.

The matter of Lin Qi ranking 345th on the Lieyang List soon let all Ninth Realm martial artists in Blue Star know.

They all fell into shock.

"Lin Qi's strength is already 4th in our Blue Star, already surpassing powerhouses like Ganges Zunzhe, Overlord, and Shanhe Wang!"

"Lin Qi just surpassed me?"

"Just broke through and has such strength; this is too exaggerated, right?"

"Is this a top genius?"

"Really enviable talent!"

"A new era has arrived; the future belongs to the young people, and we old guys are all going to be eliminated."

Time passed in a flash, and in a blink of an eye, it was July 15th.

The opening day of all universities in the Xia Guo.

Imperial Capital, Cangqiong Martial Arts University, Chixiao Building.

Countless men and women wearing Cangqiong Martial Arts University uniforms, radiating youthful breath, entered the towering building according to different colleges.

The crowd was mixed with voices, filled with various discussions.

Freshmen were excited, curiously watching everything around them.

And the senior students who didn't need to attend the opening ceremony also all arrived at this time.

They all radiated powerful auras, and some radiated fluctuations of special abilities.

"This year's opening ceremony is unusual; not only do senior students need to attend, but even the geniuses of the Tianqiong Academy have to come to the Chixiao Building to attend."

"There are more and more awakened geniuses now; when can I awaken too!"

"What's the rush? In a few years, when the price of awakening potions comes down, everyone will be able to awaken."

"By the way, are there any important figures coming today?"

"Don't you know? It's all over the forum; Jin Di is coming!"

"Jin Di Lin Qi?"

"Our Blue Star's top powerhouse, our Cangqiong Martial Arts University's legendary senior?"

"He is my second idol besides the Red Emperor; my room is full of his posters."

Everyone exclaimed, and amidst the intense discussion, everyone entered the lobby.

The lobby on the first floor of the Chixiao Building was exceptionally spacious, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people; besides that, there was the second-floor corridor, which was also full of people at this time.

Almost all students, teachers, and leaders of the entire Cangqiong Martial Arts University came over.

On the high platform on the second floor.

Fang Lin, with a tall figure, stood in the crowd, surrounded by students from the Tianqiong Academy.

She knew why so many people came today, because her cousin Lin Qi was coming.

"Sister Lin, will Lin Qi really come?"

Beside her, a girl with exquisite features and a hot figure asked with anticipation.

Fang Lin knew the other party, Sun Yiran, whose family had terrible financial resources, and she herself was an S-level genius.

With a prominent family background, she had always been the focus of everyone.

"Yeah, I also want Lin Qi's autograph?"

"Fang Lin, can you do me this favor?"

A burly boy stepped forward and said, carrying an overbearing aura.

This was the strongest genius of their batch—Li Ding, a super genius who awakened two abilities.

He usually treated everyone with a bit of arrogance, but at this time, he had to use a requesting tone to speak to her.

Fang Lin felt secretly happy, immediately puffed out her chest and said:

"I'll take you to see my cousin in a while, but I can't guarantee success!"

"Thank you!" Li Ding said gratefully.

His family background was relatively ordinary compared to others, and he had no connections to see Lin Qi, so he could only use Fang Lin's connection.

He saw Vice Principal Xu Wenji on the high platform speak, conducting the opening ceremony as usual.

"Finally, there is one more thing, and that is to let our Cangqiong Martial Arts University's outstanding student, Lin Qi, officially graduate this year!"

"At the same time, invite Lin Qi to the stage to speak!"

Once these words were spoken, the entire lobby instantly boiled over.

"Clap clap clap!!!"

"Jin Di!!!"

Amidst the thunderous applause and tsunami-like shouts, a man wearing a black-gold robe, with a tall figure and handsome features, slowly walked out on the high platform.

He was Lin Qi, who had returned to Cangqiong Martial Arts University to collect his graduation certificate and was invited by Vice Principal Xu Wenji to give a speech.

He looked at all the students standing there. And the geniuses in the second-floor corridor.

In these few years, the quality of geniuses in their Xia Guo was also getting higher and higher.

Especially the awakened geniuses, who were also becoming more and more numerous.

He raised his hand, and the entire lobby instantly quieted down.

Lin Qi slowly said:

"Returning to school today to collect my graduation certificate!"

"Time passes very quickly; in a blink of an eye, I have already graduated."

"In my life, the biggest improvement was in school; with the rewards given by the school, I was able to progress quickly!"

"We once had the crisis of disaster beasts in Blue Star; every time we opened the news, we could see news of disaster beast tides erupting, and every time we could see news of martial artists sacrificing themselves."

"At that time, we were all holding back a breath, all wanting to cultivate hard, to go to the battlefield to hunt disaster beasts in the future!"

"Now, with the improvement of technology and martial arts levels, the danger level of disaster beasts has decreased."

"But our Blue Star has begun to contact the universe, and greater crises are also hidden within it."

"Our Blue Star civilization is too weak and needs to become stronger!"

"And you are the future of our Blue Star!"

"In the future, you will lead Blue Star to rise, let the footprints of our Blue Star civilization spread throughout the entire solar system, and let the entire universe human race know our Blue Star civilization!"

"Cultivate hard, everyone, junior brothers and sisters!"

"Clap clap clap!!!"

After Lin Qi finished speaking, thunderous applause and whistling sounds rang out in the crowd again.

Most people became hot-blooded after hearing this.

Wishing they could go back now and cultivate hard for a few days and nights.

After the opening ceremony ended, Lin Qi arrived in the conference room of the Chixiao Building.

He met his cousin Fang Lin, and in the process, there were also her classmates.

"Senior, can I take a photo?"

The burly Li Ding asked with excitement.

Lin Qi smiled: "Of course, no problem!"

The two stood together, and the intelligent life was responsible for taking the photo?

Finally, Lin Qi patted Li Ding on the shoulder and said: "Cherish your talent well!"

"The future belongs to you!"

After hearing this, Li Ding said confidently: "I will!"

"In the future, I will also become a martial artist as powerful as you!"

Lin Qi smiled: "Like me? Then you have to work hard!"

Fang Lin beside him shook her head; if it were so easy to become a powerhouse like Lin Qi, he wouldn't be the legend of Cangqiong Martial Arts University.

Becoming a Ninth Realm title-level martial artist in four years, this is not something that can be done just by having talent.

This is a person destined to be recorded in history.

At noon, Lin Qi ate with school leaders, and finally walked on the school street with Liu Yuanzhang.

Liu Yuanzhang had already returned to Cangqiong Martial Arts University now.

His talent had reached its limit, and the Aperture-Refining Realm was his limit.

Compared to hunting disaster beasts to improve himself, he now preferred to cultivate future geniuses.

So he returned to Cangqiong Martial Arts University to continue to be the Dean of the Cangqiong Six Academies.

That's right, he was already the Dean now.

And the original Dean Xue Zhou went to another world to hunt disaster beasts, find heavenly treasures, and earn enough Deep Space Coins to purchase Air-Traversing potions to break through.

Liu Yuanzhang was still the same as before, with a face like jade and a pair of large earlobes.

He sighed:

"When I first saw you, I thought you were just an ordinary genius."

"Just thinking about recruiting a genius for the Cangqiong Six Academies to achieve better results in college competition."

"Didn't expect your talent to get stronger and stronger, and your progress speed to get faster and faster."

"The geniuses around you were all surpassed by you unknowingly."

"After surpassing other geniuses, your progress speed not only didn't slow down, but it got faster and faster."

"In four years, you completed an achievement that no one before and no one after, becoming an Air-Traversing Realm martial artist."

"If someone had told me before that someone could reach the Ninth Realm title-level from the Second Realm in four years, I would definitely think that person was bragging!"

"But reality is just so unreasonable."

Lin Qi listened to Liu Yuanzhang's sigh and couldn't help but fall into memories.

Once, he also didn't expect that he would grow so fast here.

Liu Yuanzhang patted Lin Qi on the shoulder and said:

"Now we can't help you anymore; you need to walk the path of the future yourself."

"You have already become a tall person in Blue Star, and the entire civilization is entrusted to you."

Lin Qi nodded, looking at the sky; he could see a silver phantom, which was the planetary defense platform installed outside Blue Star.

Now it had been installed with defense functions; as long as the orbital cannon was installed, the safety of their Blue Star would receive a huge improvement.

And this was just an external force; wanting to protect civilization, the most critical thing was still martial arts strength.

One hour later

Tianhai City, Yujing Haoting Community, Residence No. 5.

"Boom!"

The all-black Falcon fighter jet slowly descended into the courtyard.

"Hum!"

The cabin door opened, and Lin Qi walked out of it.

"Woo-woo~"

The next instant, a golden light pounced into Lin Qi's embrace.

Lin Qi felt the wetness on his cheek; looking down, it was Xiaotian.

"Xiaoqi is back?"

"No wonder Xiaotian is so excited!"

Mother Fang Huiyi, holding her brother and sister, came out and smiled.

Lin Qi put down Xiaotian; now it had changed into the appearance of an ordinary golden retriever.

It was completely impossible to tell it was a Star-Swallowing Beast.

This was its talent of Myriad Changes, able to control its body to become big or small, as well as control body changes.

Even its aura was restrained; even a Universe Second Realm powerhouse, Xiaochuan, couldn't detect it, which was simply astonishing.

Now it was just disguised as a...

In the past few days, he had already introduced Xiaotian to his family, and they also thought it was an ordinary monster beast, not paying too much attention.

Xiaotian ran around in the yard by itself; Lin Qi had already told it not to leave the residence and it would be fine.

And he himself returned to the martial arts room.

He sat cross-legged and began to think about the path he was going to take next.

"Next, spear technique, body technique need to prepare to break through to the sixth stage!"

"In cultivation, it is continuously earning money to purchase source energy crystals."

"By the way, there is also the gift from Dean Yaochen; calculating the time, it will arrive in a few months."

Lin Qi suddenly thought of one thing.

Resources that could help his Air-Traversing Realm, he guessed that it was highly likely to be source energy crystals.

If it were source energy crystals, then this gift would be too precious.

However, for him, it was also very important; it was the cultivation resource he needed.

The more source energy crystals, the faster his Qi and blood value would improve.
