The Hundred Nations Great War continued.
In the time that followed, because of Young Master Jun's suppression, Zhou Mu was like a spring.
The harder he was suppressed, the higher he bounced.
Additionally, his hatred seemed to have stimulated the power of the Auspicious Golden Dragon in his mind.
So, during this period, Zhou Mu frantically slaughtered, plundered, and acquired Opportunities and points.
He wanted to enter the Inheritance Academy; only by stepping onto a broader stage would he be qualified to contend with Jun Xiaoyao.
And in the midst of such frantic tempering, Zhou Mu's strength and points both surged.
This anomaly naturally caught the attention of Su Yan and Zhao Xin on the ship.
"Oh, Revered Master, look, Zhou Mu's points have surged so much during this period?"
Zhao Xin's face was full of surprise.
Originally, she thought that in this Hundred Nations Star Region, there would be at most two or three noteworthy Prodigies.
She didn't expect any particularly outstanding Prodigies to appear.
Now it seemed that wasn't the case.
At least this Imperial Dynasty Prodigy named Zhou Mu performed exceptionally well.
"Could it be that a True Dragon truly emerged from the wilderness?"
Su Yan was also somewhat surprised.
Zhou Mu's performance, if not an absolute Prodigy, at least exceeded her expectations.
"That's great, Revered Master, at least we won't return empty-handed this time," Zhao Xin said.
If they could recruit some Geniuses, Su Yan would also receive rewards from the Inheritance Academy.
But Su Yan wasn't concerned about the rewards.
Instead, she truly wanted to find some talented individuals for the Inheritance Academy.
Otherwise, it was feared that at this Tea Party, their Inheritance Academy would be shamed again.
Moreover, Su Yan vaguely heard that at this Tea Party, people from the Three Emperors Academy seemed to be planning something...
Just then, Zhao Xin exclaimed in surprise again.
"Oh, this Prodigy named Jun Xiaoyao is a bit strange."
"What's wrong?"
Su Yan looked over.
Zhao Xin said, "This Jun Xiaoyao seemed to have gained many points before."
"But now, they're gone again."
Seeing this, Su Yan shook her head slightly and said, "What's so strange about that? He was simply robbed by others."
Su Yan was not surprised.
In the past, there were also some exceptionally brilliant Prodigies who, at the last moment, were defeated by a dark horse that emerged, losing all their points.
This was not uncommon.
However...
The truth was, Jun Xiaoyao had no intention of deliberately acquiring points.
He only casually struck down some ignorant desolate beasts and Ancient Remnants he encountered along the way.
But he didn't need these points.
So he simply transferred them to Yu Xuan and Princess Yuxian, the siblings.
If Jun Xiaoyao truly wanted to gain points, all the points accumulated by all the Imperial Dynasty Prodigies in the Hundred Nations Great War would definitely not compare to his.
"That's about enough; these points should be enough for you to join the Inheritance Academy."
Jun Xiaoyao looked at Crown Prince Yu Xuan and Princess Yuxian.
"Thank you, Young Master Jun, for your assistance. You have helped us far too much. We don't know how to repay you..."
Crown Prince Yu Xuan also said gratefully.
Princess Yuxian didn't even need to be mentioned.
From the incomplete formation in the Tian Jue Ancient Mine, plus this time with Zhou Mu, Jun Xiaoyao had already saved her twice.
Other help, such as discovering the Holy Dragon Blood, giving points, and so on, was even more extensive.
Even if Jun Xiaoyao didn't speak, Princess Yuxian wanted to offer herself to him.
But she also understood that Jun Xiaoyao was not that kind of person.
This was just her wishful thinking.
"No need to repay anything. You were the first ones I met when I came to the Realm Within a Realm, so it can be considered a kind of fate."
Jun Xiaoyao waved his hand, then continued, "Since you are already qualified, I should be leaving soon."
Jun Xiaoyao's goal was never the Inheritance Academy.
This Hundred Nations Great War was also somewhat boring for him.
As for Zhou Mu, he still needed to be nurtured a bit; there was no rush to harvest him.
Therefore, Jun Xiaoyao had no reason to stay here.
"Young Master Jun, are you leaving?"
Crown Prince Yu Xuan asked anxiously.
Princess Yuxian also bit her lip, her eyes filled with reluctance.
And Luo Luo, upon hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, was also stunned.
Jun Xiaoyao was leaving.
That meant he was going to separate from her.
And she was going back.
For some reason, Luo Luo felt a bit resistant to this outcome.
She still wanted to stay by Jun Xiaoyao's side, and she still wanted to find the answer to that special feeling!
Even the little Pixiu Yuánbǎo barked, clinging to Jun Xiaoyao's embrace, nuzzling him with its small head.
And just then, rumble!
Suddenly, deep within this Burning Heaven Ancient Battlefield, the Void Realm began to tremble, and the heavens and earth shook.
"What's going on? What happened?"
"Could this be some new trial?"
The Imperial Dynasty Prodigies within the Burning Heaven Ancient Battlefield were all bewildered and surprised.
Could the Inheritance Academy be playing new tricks again?
As all the Imperial Dynasty Prodigies were confused, deep within the Burning Heaven Ancient Battlefield, the Void Realm vibrated, and then directly split open.
Under the gaze of some Prodigies, an ancient stone stele, tens of thousands of feet tall, materialized and descended from the depths of that Void Realm.
It was magnificent and vast, with a powerful aura!
The surface of the ancient stone stele had countless brilliant light spots, representing astonishing Geniuses who had amazed ancient and modern times.
Each light spot was a former sun, a former legend.
Looking at it, it was densely packed, giving an extreme sense of oppression.
"This... this is..."
Seeing that ancient stone stele, some of the Imperial Dynasty Prodigies present were somewhat dumbfounded.
Some Prodigies, however, had their eyes flickering, as if contemplating something, and then their eyes suddenly shot out surprised brilliant light.
"Could this be the legendary Fengshen Stele?"
A Prodigy couldn't help but exclaim.
The Fengshen Stele, even looking across the entire Realm Sea, was an extremely famous Opportunity.
And it was also a very famous ranking list.
The nine Fengshen Steles listed the most outstanding Prodigies in various fields from ancient times to the present in the Realm Sea.
Moreover, importantly, the time and location of the Fengshen Stele's appearance were not fixed.
No one would know which Universe or world the Fengshen Stele would descend upon.
This was like a random challenge.
If one encountered it, they could challenge themselves to see where their limits were.
And what the gap was between them and those ancient Prodigies.
"It's truly the Fengshen Stele! If I can leave my name on the Fengshen Stele, even without points, I will definitely be noticed by the Inheritance Academy."
Some Prodigies immediately had ideas, their eyes burning with fervor.
Being able to leave one's name on the Fengshen Stele was the best proof, more effective than any points.
But some Prodigies shook their heads.
"You're probably thinking too much."
"Would a Prodigy capable of leaving their name on the Fengshen Stele appear in our Hundred Nations Star Region?"
"Even those Prodigies ranked in the top few on the points list might not be qualified to leave their names, right?"
If it were that easy to leave one's name on the Fengshen Stele, then it wouldn't be a challenge.
In this Realm Within a Realm, Prodigies emerged in droves, and Prodigies ran rampant.
There were indeed people capable of leaving their names on the Fengshen Stele.
But in a remote place like the Hundred Nations Star Region, trying to find a Prodigy who could leave their name was almost a fantasy.
So many Prodigies felt that the Fengshen Stele had appeared in the wrong place.
It should have appeared in a more central and prosperous area of the Realm Within a Realm.
However, in the entire Burning Heaven Ancient Battlefield, only one person had a strange look in his eyes.
Naturally, it was Jun Xiaoyao.
