In a world of great contention, the blade is unparalleled.
"Let's go back."
After sensing the general location of the enemy, to avoid alarming them, Chen Chu didnât directly lead Xia Youhui and the others to attack; instead, he chose to leave.
He didnât even look back once.
His unusual behavior made Xia Youhui and Li Meng exchange glances; they nodded slightly and didnât say anything more, following Chen Chu as they left.
It wasnât until they returned to the parking lot and got into the car that Xia Youhui asked, âA Chu, did you find that guy?â
Chen Chu started the off-road vehicle and nodded slightly. âAlmost, when I got there, I sensed a gaze falling on me, filled with intense malice.â
âDamn, Chen Chu, your mind's eye ability is really useful,â Li Meng couldnât help but envy.
Just by relying on his sight to sense the enemy and discovering danger in advance, this âtalentâ derived from true martial cultivation was indeed something to be envious of.
Chen Chu smiled lightly, âYou can cultivate mind's eye bright blade as well.â
Li Meng shook his head. âForget it, my personality definitely canât cultivate mind's eye. That esoteric technique makes my head hurt just thinking about it.â
Over the years, many had exchanged for the mind's eye bright blade technique, but after practicing for years, they had only managed to master the ming wang blade.
As for reaching the heart eye realm, that was far too difficult.
Even if someone managed to cultivate to the first level, they would only be more perceptive; breaking through to the second level was already quite rare, and reaching the third level had almost never happened in a decade.
Thus, when Li Meng initially looked at the technique during the exchange, he quickly lost interest.
Without mind's eye, the ming wang blade was merely an ordinary blade technique; for geniuses like them, advanced techniques were naturally more attractive.
Moreover, true martial techniques were countless, and even if one successfully cultivated mind's eye, it couldn't guarantee they wouldnât be ambushed, as some techniques could mask oneâs aura and killing intent.
Take Luo Fei, for example.
In addition, some individuals inherently have weak presence; after cultivating the corresponding techniques, they could even erase their existence traces, making them the perfect assassins.
Therefore, in the end, strength still relies on oneself; techniques are merely auxiliary.
The Kailya base was controlled by the military, and ordinary people were not allowed to approach. After passing several checks, the three of them parked their vehicle outside the lobby.
As they got out of the car, several young individuals dressed in dark red battle armor and carrying weapons walked by, emanating a powerful aura of the three heavens.
Once they entered the lobby, they saw many new students from the three heavens moving about, each radiating a strong aura, not lesser than Li Meng and Xia Youhui.
Li Meng couldnât help but remark, âI suddenly feel fortunate to have participated in the trial; otherwise, I might still be struggling in school to break through the mid stage of double heaven.â
âYeah,â Xia Youhui nodded seriously.
In this place, geniuses breaking through to the three heavens within four months were everywhere. Some auras even made both of them feel suppressed, terrifying to a degree not less than Li Hao.
Chen Chu said irritably, âStop sighing; you should consider that this is a gathering of the most talented freshmen in Eastern Summer High School.â
âIn that case, we can be considered one in a million geniuses,â Xia Youhui's eyes lit up.
Li Meng replied matter-of-factly, âOf course, we have always been geniuses.â
Chen Chu shook his head, too lazy to deal with these two fools trying to show off.
However, they weren't wrong; with a population of over 500 million in Eastern Summer, there were over two million freshmen each year. This year, it was expected that around tens of thousands would manage to establish a foundation.
