The true power of Ye Guan's attacks eluded them, but they all agreed on one thing—it looked insanely cool. In the Guanxuan Universe, swordsmen held high status and were idolized by countless young people. If a man were a swordsman, he'd have the priority when it came to choosing a partner in the Guanxuan Academy. However, most swordsmen were cold in temperament and preferred to be alone, with only a rare few showing any interest in women. The swordsmen present were overwhelmed with excitement upon witnessing Ye Guan's sword technique. Their eyes were full of admiration. Que Zhan, on the other hand, had a headache. Did the Academy Master come here to show off? Of course, he dared not be careless. After all, the sword energies were terrifying, especially since Ye Guan had activated the power of his Mad Demon Bloodline. Each energy carried with it an immense destructive force. What shocked him even more was Ye Guan's rate of improvement. The last time they met, Ye Guan couldn't even beat him. Under everyone's watchful eyes, Que Zhan lunged forward with his spear. As he thrust his spear forward, countless golden rays surged from him like a tidal wave. At the same time, a mysterious "domain" enveloped the arena. Under the suppression of this domain, Ye Guan's cultivation realm was briefly restrained. Yes, briefly, as Ye Guan's sword energy instantly broke through that suppression. In that mysterious spacetime, the area where Ye Guan and Que Zhan were suddenly exploded. The clash of their two forces lit up the sky like fireworks. Countless golden rays and bloody sword energies splashed outward in all directions. To everyone's shock, Que Zhan was forced backward under the pressure of a single sword. He retreated tens of thousands of meters before finally halting. But the moment he stopped, countless blood-colored swords appeared around him, encircling him densely. Que Zhan didn't make another move; his golden armor was already shattered. If Ye Guan hadn't been holding back, those sword energies would have killed him. Que Zhan was utterly shaken. Ye Guan's rapid growth was nothing short of terrifying. Off in the distance, Ye Guan lightly waved his right hand. In an instant, all the sword energies vanished into thin air, and both he and Que Zhan reappeared on the Martial Arena. At that moment, the students in the audience erupted into thunderous cheers. Ye Guan looked toward the cheering students and smiled, "Dismissed!" With that, he turned and walked away. Ye Guan didn't know that his battle with Que Zhan had been fully recorded by the academy's Cloud Recorders. Not long after, the fight spread throughout the entire Guanxuan Universe. Everyone admired the strong, and the Guanxuan Universe was no exception. Upon seeing Ye Guan's terrifying power, the people across the universe revered him even more. As a result, his faith power underwent yet another transformation. On the street, as Ye Guan was shopping with Diyi Jingzhao, he suddenly stopped. He opened his palm, and a strand of faith power appeared. It was originally white, but now, it was slowly turning transparent. Ye Guan was surprised. Diyi Jingzhao said, "It's probably because of your fight with Que Zhan earlier." Ye Guan smiled. "Most likely." As he looked at the strand of faith power in his hand, he laughed. He hadn't expected that such a flashy performance would bring him such rewards. In truth, his faith power had already reached a bottleneck. To go any further, it would normally take time and patience. Yet now, unexpectedly, his faith power had advanced significantly. If it were to evolve even more, it would be unimaginably powerful. He was starting to look forward to it. Diyi Jingzhao asked, "How are things outside?" Lately, she had been busy with academy affairs and hadn't paid much attention to the outside world. Of course, with her current strength, she couldn't manage those affairs even if she wanted to, which was why she was a little worried. Ye Guan put away the strand of faith power and said, "Let's not worry about it." Diyi Jingzhao turned to him. Ye Guan smiled and said, "It's out of my hands anyway." Diyi Jingzhao nodded and said, "I'm planning to take the temporary Inner Committee members to conduct inspection tours of the major cities. Sitting in the committee all day means we only hear reports but never see the truth. That's not good. We need to go into the streets and listen." Ye Guan nodded. "That's a great idea. Tomorrow, I plan to take ten thousand students from the academy to visit the Brahma Heaven Kingdom, so they can experience the outside world and understand how vast the heavens are." Diyi Jingzhao said, "Good!" Ye Guan personally selected ten thousand students and left the Little Pagoda. He went to Xuan Ru, since this kind of arrangement required his help. Xuan Ru did not refuse. He said, "If it's for academic exchange, the best place is the Imperial Academy. It's the top institution in the Brahma Heaven Kingdom, located in the capital. The students there are the most monstrous geniuses of our world." Ye Guan smiled. "Thanks for the trouble." Xuan Ru shook his head. "It's nothing." Because of his master, even though Xuan Ru didn't hold any official power in Brahma Heaven, everyone still had to show him some respect. In fact, no one dared to disrespect him. Being the disciple of the Grand Preceptor Fan Chu, Xuan Ru's identity carried immense weight in the Brahma Heaven Kingdom. Even members of the royal family were cautious around him. It is because his master, Grand Preceptor Fan Chu, held a position even higher than the Brahma Heaven Kingdom's king. Under Xuan Ru's support to arrange things, Ye Guan and his group arrived at the Imperial Academy the next day. As soon as they reached the entrance, the students of Guanxuan Academy were stunned. The Imperial Academy wasn't built on land; it was suspended within a galactic river, surrounded by countless stars orbiting in perfect formation. As they stepped through the grand entrance, a massive waterfall appeared before them, like a vast water curtain blocking the way. As they moved forward, the waterfall parted to both sides, revealing a wide path ahead. The students of Guanxuan Academy looked around in awe. At this moment, their eyes were full of shock. Before leaving the Guanxuan Universe, they had believed their academy to be the number one in the universe. But now, seeing the Imperial Academy, they realized that the outside world also had such powerful institutions. Soon, under Xuan Ru's lead, they arrived at a vast plaza. The entire plaza was made of a rare crystal stone, glowing brilliantly. It was at least ten times larger than the Guanxuan Academy's training ground. At that moment, a lady in battle armor appeared before them. Xuan Ru smiled, "Chi Xue, long time no see." The lady, Chi Xue, glanced at Xuan Ru and asked, "When are you going to inherit the position of Grand Preceptor?" There was a trace of sarcasm in her tone, but Xuan Ru wasn't bothered. He smiled, saying, "Still a long way off." Chi Xue looked at Ye Guan, "I heard Sheng Gujin from the Holy King Hall is pregnant with your child?" Ye Guan nodded. "Mmhm." Chi Xue gave Ye Guan a once-over. "You've got the looks, but I wonder about your strength." Ye Guan chuckled, "It's alright." "Alright?" Chi Xue raised an eyebrow. Xuan Ru quickly stepped in. "Chi Xue, Brother Ye is here for an exchange with his students." Chi Xue looked at Ye Guan with a hint of provocation. "Why don't we start with a sparring match?" Before Ye Guan could respond, one of his students stepped up. "Sure!" "Hahaha." Chi Xue laughed. "Did you all hear that?" Laughter broke out around them, and hundreds of students flew into the air, landing on the training ground. They looked at the students behind Ye Guan with amusement in their eyes. The students of the Guanxuan Academy were furious. This was pure disrespect. Then, a young man in white stepped out from behind Chi Xue and smiled. "I'll be the one to spar with you all." He swept his gaze over Ye Guan's group and said, "You may all come at me together." At that, the students behind Chi Xue burst into laughter. Meanwhile, Ye Guan's students looked grim. However, a black-robed youth stepped forward and said to the man in white. "I'll spar with you." The young man in white sized him up and shook his head. "You're too weak." The black-robed youth replied, "Talk is cheap." "Come at me, then," replied the white-robed youth with a smile. The black-robed youth stepped forward, and as he did, a sword shot out of him and flew toward the white-robed man like lightning. The black-robed youth used his full strength; he knew not to underestimate his opponent. The civilization here was clearly more advanced. Yet, in the face of that mighty sword, the white-robed youth simply smiled, raised a finger, and tapped lightly. With that tap, the sword froze in midair. The black-robed youth tried to attack again, but his sword shattered, and a powerful force struck his chest, blasting him hundreds of meters away before he crashed heavily to the ground. Complete defeat! The students behind Ye Guan stood frozen. The black-robed youth was one of the top five in Guanxuan Academy, and he was crushed instantly? The white-robed young man glanced at the fallen youth and said coldly, "You thought I was insulting you when I said you could all come at once? No, I was just stating a fact. The fact is, I can defeat all of you." Then, he turned to look at Ye Guan. "That includes you, Academy Master."
