Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates-Chapter 287 - 285: The Mysterious Genius Camp

At this moment, Xiao Ye felt as if the air had stopped flowing, and an extreme sense of oppression welled up, causing cold sweat to form on his forehead.

He was just a little Martial Artist in the Xuanwu Realm, facing a super strong expert of the King Martial Realm, how could he not be nervous?

Even then, in his heart, Xiao Ye faintly hoped for this encounter; after all, this was his first time meeting an expert of the King Martial Realm.

Boom!

As the young man finished speaking, the clouds above the sky changed color, and the previously bright sky suddenly darkened. Then, one by one, stars appeared, casting faint starlight, intimidating the world.

Under this blanket of starlight, Xiao Ye felt his injuries healing rapidly, almost comparable to using a Heavenly Spirit Pill.

In just a few breaths, all his injuries had recovered.

"This..." Xiao Ye was stunned.

The stars shifting places, reversing Heaven and Earth; such a feat didn’t seem within human capability, it was the power of gods.

"This must be a Mysterious Rules phenomenon!" Xiao Ye recalled the concept of Mysterious Rules that the Monument Spirit pointed out in the Void Martial Saint Tablet Space.

Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, Xiao Ye yearned even more for this kind of power that pierced through Heaven and Earth.

Next, a figure wreathed in starlight and hidden by endless mists appeared high in the sky, its dazzling eyes penetrating the void, focusing on Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye’s body felt heavy, as if the three Xuandans within him were restrained; he couldn’t muster even a trace of strength.

"Too powerful!" Xiao Ye’s expression changed wildly.

Just the gaze alone was enough to strip him of all his power; wouldn’t it be as easy as waving a hand for the other party to kill him?

"Hmm?" Right after that, Xiao Ye felt a sweep of immeasurably domineering Consciousness coming his way, attempting to uncover all his secrets.

Xiao Ye’s expression hardened, and the cold sweat on his forehead kept rolling down.

He had no shortage of secrets, such as the Time Tower, the unprecedented three Xuandans, and the Space Ring. If these things were exposed, even if Xiao Ye were a fool, he would know it would bring him fatal trouble.

But in front of a super strong expert of the King Martial Realm, he didn’t even have the qualifications to resist.

Boom!

Just as Lord Starfall’s Consciousness neared Xiao Ye, suddenly a miraculous power burst forth from deep within Xiao Ye’s body, forming a barrier automatically, blocking Lord Starfall’s Consciousness from the outside.

"Eh?" A surprised voice came from the sky, and after the Consciousness had attempted to break through the barrier multiple times to no avail, it retreated.

"In the Late Stage of the Fifth Transition Xuanwu Realm, to have such strength, one must have encountered extraordinary opportunities, even I cannot see through him." A voice carrying Suppression resounded from the sky.

With the identity and status of King Xingyun, of course he would not condescend to entangle with a Martial Artist from the Xuanwu Realm.

Xiao Ye let out a sigh of relief; his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

"That barrier must have been left by the Empress, to prevent others from seeing my secrets." Xiao Ye muttered internally.

The Empress hoped he would take the Fusion Emperor Road, and certainly did not wish for Xiao Ye’s secrets to be discovered and killed before he embarked on that path.

With the barrier left by the Empress, Xiao Ye believed that no one in the True Spirit Continent could peer into his secrets; with this thought, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Junior Xiao Ye, pays respects to Lord Starfall!" Xiao Ye hurriedly greeted with respect.

In the True Spirit Continent, the strong are revered. Moreover, since Lord Starfall had healed his injuries, Xiao Ye felt grateful just for that reason.

"I have always been searching for young talents without powerful backgrounds across various places, forming the Genius Camp to add fresh blood to the future of Xingyun Kingdom. Although you come from the Endless Sea, you have passed Kuang Dao’s assessment and are qualified to enter the Genius Camp."

Xiao Ye understood that Kuang Dao was the name of the young man beside him.

"Do you wish to join?" The figure enshrouded in endless starlight spoke, his deep gaze fixed on Xiao Ye.

"Genius Camp? Specifically looking for young talents without powerful backgrounds?" Xiao Ye’s eyes flickered, his heart stirring with excitement.

He had just arrived in the True Spirit Continent and had deeply felt the difficulties of not having a background.

For instance, at the ruins of the Puppet Sect, the scions of the Eighteen Great Families had family help, enabling them to secure a spot to enter the Void Martial Saint Tablet amidst fierce competition, while he could only fight alone.

Moreover, Xiao Ye was short on Cultivation Resources.

The True Spirit Continent was not like the Yulan Domain, where Xuanwu Realm Martial Artists were numerous, and Void Martial Realm Experts were not scarce either. If he tried to seize resources with his current strength, one day he might just get slapped to death.

Furthermore, he had now offended the Yan and Tang Families, and there would surely be a heap of trouble in the future. If he chose to join the Genius Camp and had the Royal Family’s protection, who would dare touch him?

So, from any standpoint, the Genius Camp was incredibly tempting for Xiao Ye.

"It seems that back at Heavenly Mist Peak, what they said was true - that if one performs excellently, one can gain the attention of the Royal Family, and thereby the qualifications to enter the Genius Camp." Realization dawned on Xiao Ye.

Thinking that he had passed the Genius Camp’s assessment unwittingly, Xiao Ye couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.

"Lord Starfall, I am willing to join the Genius Camp," Xiao Ye took a deep breath and said respectfully under Lord Starfall’s gaze.

"Very well, this is the Genius Camp’s Token, which you can use to prove your identity. Kuang Dao will take you to the Genius Camp," a golden token suddenly shot out from the heaven above and flew towards Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye hurriedly reached out to catch it, only to find the token heavy in his hand, emanating a terrifying aura.

"This is..." Xiao Ye widened his eyes.

Kuang Dao came over, chuckled, and said, "This is a top-tier Xuan Artifact. Should you face danger, just infuse it with power, and it’ll provide a decent defense."

Xiao Ye inhaled sharply at these words, even the identity token was a Xuan Artifact, truly befitting the might of the Royal Family.

When Xiao Ye looked up again, he found that the sky had brightened, and the figure of Lord Starfall had vanished from the heaven above.

"Lord Starfall has left?" Xiao Ye felt somewhat disappointed. Martial Artists of the True Spirit Continent inherently idolized the strong, and he had wanted to witness more of the aura that a King Martial Realm Expert possessed.

Kuang Dao, however, snickered and said, "Xiao Ye, you don’t actually think that Lord Starfall would appear in person just for you, do you?"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Ye furrowed his brow.

"Lord Starfall is a super strong King Martial Realm Expert. In our Genius Camp, only three people are qualified to meet him, and each one is a true Heavenly Son."

"Your aptitude is not bad, but you are not a true Heavenly Son. For Lord Starfall to send an avatar here was already a great honor for you," Kuang Dao said with a smile.

Xiao Ye was astonished, realizing what he saw just now was merely an avatar of Lord Starfall.

"Kuang Dao, are you saying there are real Heavenly Sons in the Genius Camp?" Xiao Ye regained his composure and could not help asking.

After all, he had been in the Xingyun Kingdom for a while and had never heard of any Heavenly Sons, a real eye-opener indeed.

"Indeed, the peak of the young generation in Xingyun Kingdom seems like the heirs of the Eighteen Great Families."

"But how can the Eighteen Great Families compare to the Royal Family?" Kuang Dao said, "Lord Starfall has searched long in Central State and gradually found three Heavenly Sons, subsequently bringing them back to the Genius Camp."

Xiao Ye nodded.

Indeed, before the Royal Family, the Eighteen Great Families were like ants, incomparable. Previously, Xiao Ye had only encountered the superficial talents of the Xingyun Kingdom.

Next, Kuang Dao detailed the situation of the Genius Camp to Xiao Ye.

The Genius Camp was basically a Sect, and immensely powerful at that. As long as one had sufficient strength, one could acquire many treasures, and there was also a free supply of Mid-Grade Primordial Stones for cultivation.

Xiao Ye’s eyes lit up, "There might be Soul Crystals in the Genius Camp!"

With the energy from Soul Crystals infused into the Sea Chain, he could meet Bing Ya once again.

"Xiao Ye, if you don’t have any unresolved matters, let’s go to the Genius Camp together," Kuang Dao suggested.

Xiao Ye fell silent.

On the True Spirit Continent, his only unfinished business was Xiao Teng, and now that his identity had been exposed, he did not know Xiao Teng’s situation.

With this in mind, Xiao Ye shared Xiao Teng’s situation with Kuang Dao.

After hearing the story, Kuang Dao laughed heartily and said, "Xiao Ye, isn’t this a trivial matter? With the Identity Token in hand, would the Yan Family dare not to release him? Remember, no one in the Xingyun Kingdom can bully people from our Genius Camp!"

Xiao Ye’s eyes widened. This small token held such power that it could directly cause the Yan Family to release someone?

Suddenly, the path ahead, which seemed fraught with obstacles, now appeared smooth before Xiao Ye.

"It seems you still don’t believe it. In that case, I’ll accompany you on this journey to let you know what kind of existence our Genius Camp holds in the Xingyun Kingdom. Only by rescuing your clansman can you return to the Genius Camp with me at ease," Kuang Dao remarked.

Xiao Ye was overjoyed, it couldn’t be any better to have Kuang Dao accompany him.

Immediately afterwards, the two of them did not hesitate, took out a map to confirm the direction, and flew towards where the Yan Family was located.

Xiao Ye and Kuang Dao were both Young Talents, flying at great speed. Half a day later, a vast city appeared beneath them.

However, Kuang Dao suddenly came to a halt.

"Kuang Dao, what’s wrong?" Xiao Ye asked, this city was not under the control of the Yan Family.

"Xiao Ye, you haven’t joined the Genius Camp yet, and you must be puzzled about our status. I am going to show you now, the status of the people from our Genius Camp in the Xingyun Kingdom, so you can be at ease." Kuang Dao smiled mysteriously.

After saying that, Kuang Dao rushed towards the city.

Xiao Ye was speechless; when Kuang Dao had faced him before, he was very arrogant, but now he seemed like a completely different person.

Indeed, Xiao Ye did not know that the people of the Genius Camp were genuine with their own but very indifferent towards outsiders.

Swoosh!

Xiao Ye followed behind Kuang Dao flying towards the city, his face full of curiosity.
