Chapter 1071: Shocked Mentor Chi Chan

"Five-pearl tier..."This content has its origins in n0v£lbin★

Mentor Chi Chan stared blankly at the five brilliant Heavenly Pearls reflected in her pupils. She could not help but question reality for a moment.

She remembered that Li Luo was only at the Fiend Palace Tier when he had left Xia Kingdom. How could he have reached the Heavenly Pearl Tier within the short span of a single year?

This was a monstrous leap in cultivation for a single year.

A truly terrifying speed.

Chi Chan remembered that even Jiang Qing'e was only at the Fiend Body Tier when she first entered the Three Star Hall. Although, based on the latter's performance, she had probably suppressed her cultivation speed with a secret art in order to accumulate more knowledge for a period of time. But regardless of that, Li Luo entering the Three Star Hall at the five-pearl tier had shattered every previous record in all of Astral Sage College's history.

And it was not just in the Astral Sage College—such a powerful Three Star Hall student would be rare even if one looked across all the powerful ancient colleges.

Chi Chan gradually returned to her senses and couldn't help but sigh. "You have progressed unbelievably quickly. It seems the Xia Kingdom can't even come close to the resources as well as the cultivation conditions of the inner divine continents."

It was no wonder the people from the inner divine continents had a rather cavalier attitude towards the outer divine continents. The gap between the two sides were indeed hard to make up for.

In an attempt to defend himself, Li Luo said, "Although the cultivation conditions are indeed better, it's mainly because my own talent is outstanding. At the same time, I cultivated hard and never slacked off."

Mentor Chi Chan's eyes filled with mirth as she replied, "Alright, alright. I know you're great."

She continued, "A five-pearl is close the the pinnacle of the Four Star Hall in our college. But there must be something like the Seven Astral Pillars in the other sage colleges, and their top students may be seven or eight-pearls... Perhaps there'll even be some wildcards who have broken into the Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier."

Back then, the Seven Astral Pillars of the Astral Sage College such as Gong Shenjun, the First Princess, and the rest were all at the seven or eight-pearls. This time around, the level of the various major sage colleges that were competing for the resources was even higher than that of the Holy Grail Meet. After all, like the Lake Sage College, they were sage colleges of the inner divine continents.

They surpassed the sage colleges in the outer divine continents from the get-go.

"The Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier is rather high."

Li Luo dispersed the radiant Heavenly Pearls behind him and then pulled out the Heavenly Origin Records. He flipped to the latest page of the Empyrean Chronicle and handed it to Chi Chan, saying, "Mentor, take a look. Two months ago, it just so happened that I fought some of my talented peers from the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent in a cave. It can be said that I've done well as a student of the Astral Sage College."

"Heavenly Origin Records, Empyrean Chronicle?"

"Oh? Principal Pang has an old grudge against Vice Principal Wu Yu?" Li Luo's expression changed. It was no wonder the latter had not bothered to meet Chi Chan even though she had been there for half a month. It was deliberate targeting.

Since Mentor Chi Chan and the other party had never met each other with the latter being a high-ranking King Stage elite, the latter would not stoop so low solely to target her. As such, it had to be because of Principal Pang's history with that person.

"It seems Principal Pang has some history of his own."

Pang Qianyuan knew many vice principals of the Heavenly Origin Ancient College and was a King level powerhouse himself, but he did not serve as a vice principal in the ancient college. Instead, he had ventured out to the Xia Kingdom in an outer divine continent and created the Astral Sage College. Many things had probably happened that led to this outcome.

"There's no rush to preserve the sage title. Since the vice principals are not in the college, a resolution naturally can't be passed, so all we can do is wait for now. For the time being, securing this batch of resources is the most important thing," Li Luo mused.

He would be staying here for some time anyway, so it was convenient for him to settle these issues now.

"Thanks to the greeting letter, I think that Vice Principal Wu Yu will have to meet us tomorrow even if he doesn't want to, so let's see his attitude then," Li Luo said.

Chi Chan nodded and smiled sweetly. "If not for you, I would never have been able to meet him."

Her eyes flashed as she asked, "How is Student Jiang Qing'e?"

"She should be quite alright. I came to the Heavenly Origin Ancient College to deliver her medicine. As long as she receives this medicine, the problem of the Heart of Light's sacrificial ignition should be able to be completely resolved. Maybe she will be able to take advantage of the situation to raise her cultivation level even further." Li Luo laughed.

"That's good. With her natural talent, I think that she will stand out as much as you have even in the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College," said Mentor Chi Chan.

Li Luo smiled as he didn't have any doubts about that. After all, she was a strong woman who had handled him ever since he was a child. Even though he was in a much greater position now, he suspected that he still paled in comparison to Jiang Qing'e.

"By the way, Mentor Chi Chan, do you have any news about Shen Jinxiao?" Li Luo suddenly asked.

When Mentor Chi Chan heard that name, a chill emanated from her eyes and she said, "Shen Jinxiao has not shown his face much this year, though our investigations have found that he seems to be in seclusion in Xia City."

She paused before she continued, "He is squatting in the headquarters of House Luolan and is probably using it as his place of cultivation."

Li Luo's eyes also became dispirited when he heard this. That vile scum even dared to occupy House Luolan's headquarters.

He lifted his teacup, taking a sip with an expression full of murderous intent.

Another reason for Shen Jinxiao to die had formed in Li Luo's mind.
