Chapter 1417: Chapter 777: The Cold and Unyielding Judge, Overpowering the Hundred Beasts! (Part 2)

Previously he’d heard that Meng Chuan had tinkered True Martial into existence. Even though it was a Secret Technique, it made him really curious, so he came to audit the class a few times.

Unfortunately he didn’t manage to learn it, and got chewed out every day...

After sending the three off, Meng Chuan slowly dropped out of his "teacherly" state. Seeing Dong Yue looking at him with a dark face, he hurriedly poured tea with a smile, trying to placate him.

"Old Dong, look at you, you’re way too deep into the role!"

"These three aren’t easy to teach. They came to our United University to study—if I don’t establish some authority, I’d actually look like I’m beneath those old-school martial sects."

Meng Chuan patiently explained. His wings were hard now, very hard.

But Old Dong was also his teacher. Respect!

"Alright then."

Dong Yue’s expression slowly eased. He picked up the hot tea on the table and took a small sip, then asked:

"Enough about that. Teacher Meng, did you see the message on the Human Alliance System? The one sent yesterday."

Meng Chuan nodded, knowing exactly what Old Dong meant. He sat up straight in his chair and said:

"I saw it. Joining the Execution Bureau is a given for me. Old Dong, you planning to join too?"

The message Dong Yue referred to was precisely the batch of new intel the Human Alliance had made public on the system yesterday.

Besides unlocking the preset organizational structure intel—the Director and the eight Chief Operators of Operations—they’d also announced part of the mission rewards.

Among the rewards were alien devices that aid Enlightenment and perception of Divine Skills, and every activation consumes a certain "alien resource."

That kind of resource is near impossible to find in the human world, extremely precious. Even special battle merits can’t be used to redeem activation chances.

So, aside from using the Execution Bureau to search for Mo Jue’s trail, Meng Chuan also had a compelling reason he had to join.

Of course, as a national talent and the latest First Generation, Meng Chuan still enjoyed special privileges when using these cutting-edge resources.

The state allowed him one free use per year, but Enlightenment is especially critical—Meng Chuan wanted more...

Dong Yue shook his head and said:

"I do want to join the Execution Bureau. After all, it’s the hottest department under the Human Alliance right now, with insane resource tilt. But I don’t have big ambitions...

Just being a regular team member, stable and safe, is fine. The six Chief Operator positions are way too sought-after. Without at least End Realm Grandmaster strength, you can basically forget it."

After he finished, he looked at Meng Chuan again and said:

"Of course, that doesn’t include you. If you brat want to fight for it, you really do have a decent shot."

Meng Chuan nodded, not being humble about it.

Only by becoming a Chief Operator could he grasp some degree of discourse power, not only in intel, but more importantly in resource allocation.

He absolutely intended to fight for a Chief Operator seat.

"The Great Chu has no shortage of outstanding talents. This time the Execution Bureau’s selection doesn’t limit age, so a whole bunch of ’old monsters’ who’ve been cultivating for over a hundred years will definitely crawl out of the woodwork.

Think about how powerful, how immense the Star True Gang refined from such long years is. Even a Five Limit Venerable wouldn’t dare look down on them.

So, hmph... Don’t you get cocky. There’s still a fair bit of time before the selection—keep building up, building up."

"Mm, mm, I know." ℯℯ𝘭.

Meng Chuan understood in his heart; Old Dong didn’t need to say much.

His Qi Blood power was just over four hundred thousand now—he could say he wasn’t the least bit inferior to those old Grandmasters with decades of accumulation.

But in terms of refining Star True Gang, that was his short board.

It’s independent of Realm cultivation, forged within the Inner World through the ability of Refining the False into the Real, burning bright in the night sky.

Those old Grandmasters who’d cultivated for ages yet saw no hope of breaking through Tier Five—some settled into raising descendants and enjoying life, while others still had a blazing heart for martial arts.

Even if they were blocked by limited Comprehension and unable to achieve Celestial-Human Communication, they still refined True Gang day after day without pause.

The Execution Bureau the Human Alliance had just established was precisely the chance, the hope, for these "devout ones."

Using the Bureau’s alien Enlightenment devices to assist cultivation, breaking Tier Five wasn’t impossible!

After such long-term accumulation, the Star True Gang of these old Grandmasters was without doubt terrifying.

Meng Chuan had just achieved a Realm Breakthrough. Even with Nourishing Fiend helping him, in this regard he was miles behind them—an absolute short board.

So whether he could secure a Chief Operator spot, even someone as strong as him didn’t dare guarantee it; he could only say he’d do his best.

There was still time—go all out to raise his strength.

"When the time comes and you take a Chief Operator seat, remember to pull me into your team."

Dong Yue had plenty of confidence in him.

Meng Chuan could slay two Tier Four earth dragons, and even survive under the hands of that terrifying Tier Five old demon. His chances of getting a Chief Operator post were indeed quite good.

"Alright, Old Dong, I’ve got stuff to do, I’ll head off first."

Meng Chuan set down the teacup, glanced at the time, then turned upstairs to return to his treasure trove.

...

Time was up—he’d booked an online class with Xuansha Mountain Lord Shang Ruyi.

Shang Ruyi was Motohiko’s personally transmitted master, the youngest Grandmaster at United University’s main campus in the Tiger Form lineage of the Elephant Form Sect.

Meng Chuan wanted to study the Secret Technique that had been sealed on his panel for a long time—Mountain Searching, Forest Seeking.

First, in the literal sense, he’d follow Shang Ruyi to learn how to cultivate this Tiger Form Secret Technique.

Second, the Imagery World imprint that had previously given him this Secret Technique had dissipated. Meng Chuan hoped that in the course of studying, he could condense that imprint again.

He still missed that dead old tiger in there...

Ahem.

Meng Chuan didn’t hold grudges at all; it’s just that now he’d become a Grandmaster, so it was only right to "visit" his "old friend" and "share" his "joy"...

If he didn’t get in touch with Shang Ruyi, how could he "steal" that Tiger Form imprint from the other party again and enter the Imagery World?

With the Phantom Sky Martial Domain basically complete, Special Martial Arts University’s online teaching had all been moved into it.

The online class Meng Chuan booked with Shang Ruyi was equivalent to a Spiritual World transmission of techniques, and the teaching scene was precisely the Phantom Sky Martial Domain.

His soul, carrying his body along, would jointly Transcend; the imprint would naturally fall into his hands...

As for whether Shang Ruyi would be curious about how he’d learned Mountain Searching, Forest Seeking, or curious about other things.
