Volume One, Chapter 45: The Grand Confucian Sect Has Taken a Liking to Qin Bao and Wishes to Accept Him as a Disciple on Behalf of His Master

Kong Yingda made no attempt to hide his admiration as he spoke, "This 'Treatise on the Encouragement of Learning' is deeply thought-provoking, filled with subtle wisdom and profound meaning. Among all the essays presented at the Four Nations Literary Conference over the years, this piece would undoubtedly rank first."

Qin Bao responded with humility, "Master Kong praises me too highly."

With Kong Yingda’s endorsement, Xie Jun, Yang Peng, and the others all offered their own words of commendation.

Meanwhile, with Hao Yu’s assistance, Mentor Wang Zhan and Zorro made use of the ever-changing formations of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams to move like phantoms through the Graveyard of the Forsaken.

Ning Rus sighed bitterly and lifted his shirt. Upon his sharply contoured skin, grayish lines the color of ash drifted, resembling living veins of smoke.

Suddenly, beneath Hao Yu and the others, a pit as large as a football field burst open, and from the depths emerged the gigantic predatory worms, each stretching several kilometers in length.

If only she had known, she would never have attended that auction. She should have negotiated with the Mittel family directly and bought the Breeze Fruit in advance.

Duanmu Yang gently swung the celestial sword in his hand, slicing off a corner of the nearby table, making his stance clear to everyone present.

In such an environment, no matter what kind of supernatural attack was employed, nothing was as swift and effective as wind-based assaults.

From that moment on, King Arthur’s legend became unstoppable—he slew the Red Dragon, quelled rebellions, and conquered the world, his footsteps spanning half the continent.

Each person sat quietly in their place, exchanging glances before lowering their heads, their eyes fixed on their own knees, falling silent.

Chen Jingnian hastily agreed, casting an apologetic look at Qi Guohua as he picked up his belongings and entered the house.

The other Slagg Apothecary in Diagon Alley would not buy in bulk, and Hogwarts itself produced an abundance of potion ingredients. Although Kettle sold off some stock regularly, the supplies in the shop only continued to mount.

Recalling Murong Kunpeng’s mention of an unearthed golden Buddha of indeterminate centuries, Master Beneng’s heart skipped a beat: could it be real?

That meant that within a thousand years, even if a cultivator from the Yunmeng Realm succeeded in transcending the tribulation, they would still face annihilation in the Immortal Realm. This was Yun Sha’s deepest helplessness.

He sat cross-legged, sensing the power of the Heart of Darkness within him, gradually releasing a portion outward to probe the situation beyond the portal ahead.

Unfortunately, the words that followed from Leng Yan were like a stinging slap to their faces.

Seeing this, Shen Ci realized that nothing more could be learned from Wen Wu—not while Aunt Wen was still around, at least.

Yuan Wei, the loyal guard who had been waiting outside, immediately stepped forward, knelt, and reported, "My lord, after Miss Feng became intoxicated, she grew restless and insisted on leaving the carriage, only to run straight into the Fourth Prince as he was coming out."

The two engaged in a secret conversation, and the next day, Chen Kai took his leave and departed Guangzhou by boat. A few days later, Kuang Lu sent invitations to the city’s prefect, the magistrate of Nanhai, and the magistrate of Panyu, saying he had a new work he wished them to appraise together.

In this situation, once he revealed his cultivation, the other party would easily discover he had no background, no credentials, and no affiliations, instantly recognizing him as an outsider.

Quantum entanglement transmits all signals perfectly, even across time and space, ensuring flawless communication. With a smile in her eyes, Dong Ni appeared on the communication projection, inviting Ling Qi to log into the virtual StarNet community for a joint study of matrices.

The God of Time and Space possessed the power to traverse the universe at will. He had expected to see Zixuan soon, but hope was dashed once again. Indeed, where there is no hope, there can be no disappointment.

"Hey? That looks familiar. Mu Ziyun, aren’t those the sea monsters that guided us to the Continent of the Seven Kingdoms?" Huzi said, hands on the helm.

Mu Ziyun tore off his shirt in one swift motion and took a deep breath. His entire body flushed red, emitting waves of heat. He brought his palms closer together, compressing a vast amount of fire and wind between them. Then, clenching his left fist, he continuously drove fresh surges of fire and wind into his right palm.
