Right now, Di Chen needed to find a place to train quietly, and break through the King Wen, which would easily attract attention. Returning to the room, he closed the door and sat on the bed, then the power of the scholar surged into his body. It was as if Di Chen's door was opened, he could feel a strange energy flowing through his body.

"Hmm?" Di Chen waited for a long time. Aside from the fact that there was a trace of energy in his body earlier, there was no other change. He seemed to be the same as before, but Di Chen had a feeling that he seemed to have become smarter.

"I've broken through?" Scholars and warriors were different, he did not know what it was like to have a breakthrough in Martial King Realm.

Di Chen took out a book from the bookshelf. This book was called《 Heavenly Mystery》, it was another book related to the heavens, and this book was something he had brought from the Eternal Gate before. The knowledge contained in the book was obscure and hard to understand.

"My intelligence has increased?" Di Chen was startled, thinking, could it be that when a scholar breaks through a new realm, that is the same as increasing their intelligence?

Di Chen read through this book in a single breath. This《 Heavenly Secrets》 talks about cultivation based on luck, and breaking through realm based on destiny. If the heavens allow you to break through, you will be able to break through, but if the heavens do not agree, you will not be able to break through a new realm in your entire lifetime.

"Another book that regards the heavens as the ruler?" Di Chen thought to himself, why is it that this Eternal Gate is like a messenger of the heavens, every book is praising the heavens, treating the heavens as everything, Di Chen once again recalled the previous question, what exactly is the heavens?

Di Chen set《 Heavenly Secrets》 to the side, and did not think too much about the knowledge within, thinking that it would be better to not read too many of the Eternal Gate s' books in the future, as if these books were brainwashing.

Dong, dong, dong!

There was a knock on the door.

"Di Chen, are you there?" Bai Qian shouted.

When Di Chen opened the door, he saw Bai Qian and Zi Yan standing outside, and asked suspiciously, "What happened?"

Bai Qian shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that seeing you leave in such a hurry, I wanted to ask if you're alright?"

Di Chen laughed: "It's fine, it's just that I used up a lot of energy just now, that's why I came back to cultivate so quickly. Oh right, the competition is still going on."

Bai Qian nodded his head: "Right now, it's a battle of Martial King Realm, both sides have victories and losses, do you want to take a look, to see if this level of battle is beneficial for us to break through to a new realm."

Di Chen thought to himself that since he had already broken through the realm of King Wen, after some time, he would be able to break through the Martial King Realm by going to the mountain with Kui Shan to hunt demonic beast. He didn't even need to watch other people fight, and rejected Bai Qian.

"Then cultivate," Bai Qian and Zi Yan both thought to themselves that Di Chen definitely still needed to cultivate, and did not stay for long.

After the two of them left, Di Chen took out《 Heavenly Mystery》, but this time, Di Chen did not open it. Instead, he blankly stared at the cover of the book.

Di Chen did not cultivate for the next two days, and was immersed in this kind of thinking. He faintly felt that Yu Xuanji seemed to be concealing something very important from him, that there must have been a reason why the Eternal Gate was destroyed, but his cultivation was still too weak, and he did not have the qualifications to know about these.

After two days, Di Chen finally walked out of the room. In the end, he did not understand, and the moment he walked out, he saw Hong Zhao standing not far away.

Seeing Di Chen, Hong Zhao walked over and said: "Your previous match was very exciting, at least you have saved Famous Sword Academy's face. I didn't expect you to be so amazing."

Di Chen laughed: "I am not as powerful as you think, I have also consumed most of my energy, if I were to continue, I would probably be injured too."

Hong Zhao asked curiously: "I heard a lot of people saying that you are a literati, is that true?"

During this period of time, the entire Famous Sword Academy had been talking about the Di Chen incident. Di Chen did not have any elemental energy, and it just so happened that his strength was extremely strong, the only possibility was that Di Chen was a literati.

Di Chen knew that this matter could not be hidden from others, and nodded: "I am indeed from literati, so I do not have any Origin Energy in my body."

Hong Zhao suddenly realized, and thought no wonder Di Chen's technique was so strange, he had never seen literati's technique before, he suddenly thought of Li Yuan's death, and wondered if it was Di Chen who also did it?

However, even if Di Chen had killed Hong Zhao, he still wouldn't be able to do anything to Di Chen. Furthermore, he shouldn't tell Xiang Xue about this conjecture as well, in case he wanted to kill Di Chen.

"Oh right," Di Chen asked: "Did Clear Water Academy's people leave?"

Hong Zhao nodded: "They have all left, but that Zuo Qing seems to have lost very unwillingly, he said that in a few years time it will be the competition between the three major sects, and I will be waiting for you at Martial King Realm."

Di Chen laughed, he did not care about Zuo Qing at all, and he did not chat much with Hong Zhao, but turned and left the residential area. Hong Zhao watched Di Chen's back quietly, and was even more sure that Li Yuan had died by his hands.

Not long after he left, Di Chen bumped into Dongfang Yue.

"Di Chen," Dongfang Yue laughed: "What a coincidence, I was looking for you just in time. Follow me."

Di Chen did not know why Dongfang Yue was looking for him for, but he followed Dongfang Yue to the southeast corner of the Famous Sword Academy. This place was normally a forbidden area, and only the teachers of the Famous Sword Academy could come here.

Di Chen curiously walked in, and upon entering, he saw more than ten experts with Lifestealer Realm, Liu Jingjing and Lin Tao amongst them.

When Liu Jingjing saw Di Chen, she ran over excitedly and asked: "Di Chen, why are you here?"

Di Chen said: "It was Teacher Dongfang who brought me here. Jingjing, your strength seems to have increased quite a bit, have you broken through your Martial King Realm?"

Liu Jingjing giggled: "Soon."

Di Chen thought that the first time he met Liu Jingjing, she was like an ice beauty who didn't like to interact with others. However, now that Liu Jingjing had spoken, she had a trace of a young lady's aura, which showed that she had truly changed a lot.

"Oh right," Di Chen looked curiously at Liu Lin Tao, and with one glance, he could tell that Lin Tao had already broken through to the Seventh Stage of Life Seizing, he exclaimed: "Your cultivation speed is just too fast, don't just focus on raising your cultivation level and give up your strength."

Lin Tao said with a smile, "Rest assured, teacher Shunan still thinks that my cultivation is slow."

As a matter of fact, although Lin Tao trained very quickly, his cultivation level wasn't all that low either. Currently, even the average ninth level Life Seizing Cultivator wasn't Lin Tao's opponent. However, Lin Tao didn't know why his talent suddenly became so good, as if he had become a different person.

Hearing Lin Tao's words, Di Chen was relieved, but he did not ask anything. He looked at Dongfang Yue and asked: "Teacher Dongfang, are all of you direct disciples?"

Dongfang Yue nodded his head: "Almost every teacher in the Famous Sword Academy will accept a few direct disciples. Their strength varies from Lifestealer Realm to Martial King and the number of people will also vary; these are all direct disciples of the Lifestealer Realm."

Di Chen was curious: "Why did teacher bring me here?"

Dongfang Yue laughed: The news of you defeating the Clear Water Academy some time ago has already spread, all these direct disciples did not watch the competition, and did not know your strength, so some people wanted to challenge you.

Di Chen finally understood what was going on. So they had wanted him to fight with them, probably because they wanted him to increase their strength through battle.

"But …" Di Chen did not seem to be willing to fight. On one hand, he did not want to become a tool for others to cultivate. On the other hand, he had already broken through to King Wen.

Dongfang Yue didn't wait for Di Chen to finish before saying: "You might not know, but these direct disciples have always been a little arrogant. I heard that you were very strong and none of them were convinced, so I wanted to challenge you.

Di Chen looked at Dongfang Yue with suspicion. He kept having the feeling that he had other motives, but Di Chen didn't think too much into it, and nodded in the end.

Seeing that Di Chen agreed, he looked at the direct disciples and said: "This is Di Chen, although you all have not seen his previous fights, but you should have heard of him before, if anyone wants to challenge him, feel free to try."

"I only came because he defeated the two Clear Water Academy s. I don't believe that he is as powerful as the rumors in the academy say."

"Let me do it. Recently, there has been a breakthrough in my cultivation. I want to see how much I have improved."

Everyone were clamoring to fight Di Chen; even many people at the seventh or eighth stage of the life reaping matches with Di Chen. It was clear that they did not place Di Chen in their eyes.

These were all direct disciples, and Di Chen was just a new student who had just entered the academy. It was normal for them to look down on Di Chen.

Di Chen did not mind, and laughed: "Why don't all of you come at once, if not it will be a little unfair to you."

"What?" Everyone was furious when they heard this. Even the direct disciples were acting so arrogantly?

"I heard that you are a literati, I would love to test if you are really as powerful as what the rumors say," a man suddenly took a step towards Di Chen and punched at him, but when the man arrived in front of Di Chen, he seemed to be restricted by a force, and was no longer able to move.

Di Chen immediately walked to his side, grabbed him and threw him out.

"What's going on?" Everyone was startled, they did not see Di Chen use his cultivation technique.

Di Chen laughed: "I have already broken through to King Wen, and am already equivalent to a Martial King, that's why I asked you all to attack me together."

Break through the King Wen?

Everyone immediately became like deflated balls, thinking that since they were just Lifestealer Realm, how could they fight against a King Wen?

Dongfang Yue was also slightly surprised. A few days ago, he was only a scholar, but now, he was at King Wen, his cultivation speed was rather fast, no wonder Zhao Fusheng was recommending him with all his might. He thought to himself, although this guy is not a direct disciple, he actually has the qualifications to become a direct disciple.
