150: Chapter 150 The Value of Being the League's Number One Player

As this topic was brought up, the atmosphere seemed to become serious.

Chen Xing nodded, without any fear or unease.

Han Lingxi looked at him, her expression grave: "Do you know just how high the weight of Hua Zizai, this 'Alliance's Number One Person', truly is?"

Chen Xing shook his head: "I don't know, but I want to rely on myself. I... I only believe in myself!"

Han Lingxi sighed and plucked a string with a flick of her finger; the echo of the melody flew toward the waterfall.

Subsequently, the water flowing over the waterfall transformed into a massive screen, which looked quite novel.

"You already know what the Eternal Black Hand is, so letting you know these things in advance... is actually not a problem. But, just like last time, you must not mention this to anyone, understand?" Han Lingxi urged.

"Understood." Not expecting Revered Master to be this serious, Chen Xing also had to treat the matter with caution.

"Come, sit here." With a wave of her hand, Han Lingxi caused a table and chair to appear before her, along with a steaming teapot, as if it had just been brewed.

Chen Xing stepped forward to pour tea for Revered Master, then sat down.

Immediately after, the image on the screen began to move.

"Do you know what Realm lies above the Main God?" Han Lingxi looked at him.

"King?" Chen Xing hesitated.

"Correct. It is the God King. Among the Human Race, he can be called the Human King; for the Yao Race, he is the Yao King; for the Demon Race, the Devil King... and so on. But without a doubt, they are all Kings!" Han Lingxi nodded.

"A single King can rule over a Universe. If they exert their full strength, they can destroy a Universe. That is where their power lies."

"What?!"

Chen Xing's pupils dilated in shock. This far exceeded his expectations. How could this be...

If a single Human King could destroy a Universe, and the Esper Alliance had a full ten of them, then why...

"You want to ask why we are limited to only one Universe?" Han Lingxi said in a deep voice.

"Yes." Chen Xing nodded.

"That is only because you have not seen it. Our Universe, as a whole, is divided and ruled by forces such as the Demon Alliance, the Demon Race, and the Evil Path. It belongs to a 'Battle Buffer Zone'." Han Lingxi picked up her teacup unhurriedly.

"Then... that means the Alliance has its own Universe, a Universe ruled only by the Human Race?" Chen Xing stood up.

"Correct. Under the Alliance's command, there are twenty-five Universes, as well as over a hundred battle buffer zones. We are just one of them." Han Lingxi sipped her tea and let out a long sigh of relief.

"It is not that the Alliance does not want us to obtain better resources, but rather that other forces are eyeing this place covetously, also vying for everything here. We will not yield, and neither will they. That is the resistance."

"Only when the war here ends, and we have slaughtered all of their Divine-Grade deployments, can we completely rule this Universe."

This series of explosive pieces of information was like thunderclaps exploding in his heart. Chen Xing's expression was grave, and he was incomparably shocked.

The place where they lived was actually just one of over a hundred buffer zones, and there were actually twenty-five complete regions!

Chen Xing previously thought that although the God King was the strongest in the Alliance, he was not outrageous to that extent.

Now it seemed his perspective had been too narrow.

"When you shine brilliantly and display sufficiently astonishing talent, the higher-ups will take you away when you reach the Huajie Realm." Han Lingxi spoke.

"Leave? Go where?" Chen Xing asked, then sat back down.

"This is a buffer zone; the resources are not as good as in a complete Universe. Naturally, we take talented individuals like you to the true regions to Cultivate." Han Lingxi said.

"The Alliance places great importance on talent cultivation. As long as the talent you display is sufficient, you can obtain over ninety percent of the things you desire."

"This..." Chen Xing's heart stirred. In that case, the Alliance was not one-sided, only pouring resources into those Universes.

"Hua Zizai was like this in the past. When he reached the Huajie Realm, he went to other Universes, fought against Geniuses from the twenty-five complete Universes, and ultimately won the championship."

Han Lingxi spoke, her expression grave: "Now, do you understand the weight of his 'Number One Person' title?"

Chen Xing was incomparably surprised. He did not expect that the scope of Hua Zizai's 'Number One Person' title was not limited to this place.

Actually, when he learned how vast the Alliance's ruling scope was, he had already somewhat guessed what was going on.

After all, the outside world's title for Hua Zizai had always been 'Alliance's Number One Person', not the number one Genius of a certain region.

"Hard to believe, right? Someone from an incomplete region could actually defeat all the Geniuses from the complete regions. This is something no one expected." Han Lingxi sighed.

"It is indeed hard to believe. However, the facts are right before my eyes, and I have no choice but to believe it." Chen Xing smiled and nodded.

"What, you still don't regret it?" Han Lingxi said seriously.

"Why would I regret it?" Chen Xing countered.

"A true powerhouse should be thinking about how to surpass others, not about becoming a follower. Is that the kind of situation you would want to see?"

Of course, what he actually wanted to say was: I have a cheat.

Hearing this, Han Lingxi was stunned for a moment.

Looking at Chen Xing's calm and firm gaze, she seemed to see her younger, impetuous self, who believed that she could carve out her own path relying solely on her own two hands.

In the end, Han Lingxi smiled.

"Good." She stood up.

"Since you have this determination, I, as your Revered Master, cannot let you down."

"Where are we going?" Chen Xing asked.

"I have long since prepared it for you. There are three Divine Pools that can assist your Cultivation, respectively for the Physical Body, magical power, and the Soul. Any resource, as long as I, your Revered Master, have it, I will definitely give you the best!" Han Lingxi looked back and smiled.

"Really?" Chen Xing's eyes lit up.

Although he had only just arrived, his teacher had already prepared everything he needed for his Cultivation.

No wonder Revered Master scolded him so much when he just arrived; it turned out she was afraid that two months of training would delay him and cause his progress to slow down.

In the Chu family, Chen Xing naturally did not receive such treatment; after all, he was ultimately an outsider with a different surname.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing could not help but feel a warmth in his heart. No matter what, Revered Master was treating him like her own son!

"What are you thinking about, you brat? Don't you dare call me 'Mom'." Han Lingxi glared at him.

"What the heck?" Chen Xing was stunned.

Watching her slowly walk away, Chen Xing immediately followed, not forgetting to grumble.

"Teacher, this ability of yours is really bad. You always pry into other people's inner thoughts. That's an invasion of privacy!"

"When your cultivation level comes up, even if I, your Revered Master, want to see, I won't be able to."

"Ah? Is it because my cultivation level is too low that I can't block you?"

"Heh... with your meager skills, you still want to block me? If you could do that, you would already be holding a post at the Alliance's headquarters."

"..."
