Chapter 1544: Stunning Achievements

The shock in the audience’s eye still had not fully disappeared yet. In particular, Master Deng Guo felt absolutely astounded. Since he had a better understanding of Stable Zone, he was naturally more stunned than the average viewer.

Grandmaster Qiu Ling did not collect the three sourceboxes that had been used for the game, but instead gave them to Lu Yin.

Lu Yin put them away in a daze. He was still feeling rather confused by the game, and he was guessing that the ending might have been the White Dragon Clan’s idea. After all, Grandmaster Qiu Ling had been invited by the clan, and they also wanted to prop Lu Yin up as their poster child.

"I have to admit that Long Qi's talent is amazing. Neither I nor the other Array Grandmasters can measure up to his achievements at the same age. It’s possible that his lockbreaking abilities will one day compare to even Progenitor Hui’s," Grandmaster Qiu Ling said something that shocked everyone present before she turned and bowed to where Mu Xie had disappeared from. "Thank you, Commander, for giving this Qiu Ling an opportunity. Else, Qiu Ling would have lost out on such a talented apprentice."

Ni Huang was overjoyed. "Long Qi, I don't think that you’ve thanked Grandmaster Qiu Ling for her support yet."

Lu Yin then became certain that the end of the game must have been the White Dragon Clan’s scheme. They were definitely doing their all to elevate him ever higher!

"Long Qi thanks Grandmaster Qiu Ling for her kindness. If not for Grandmaster's mercy, this junior would have never been able to endure for so long during the game." Lu Yin was sincere with his words, as they were true. However, it sounded to others as though he was being modest.

Grandmaster Qiu Ling smiled. "It was your own accomplishment, not mine."

She then frowned. "Did you draw the attention of the Twelve Marquises on the rear battlefield?"

Lu Yin was startled by the question, but then he nodded. "I was attacked by Marquis Green Bamboo and Marquis Xiang. Without Supervisor Qing Chen’s assistance, I would have died."

Grandmaster Qiu Ling grew visibly worried. "Given the talent that you’ve revealed just now, you will absolutely be attacked the moment you step foot back onto that battlefield. Those monsters must already know that you are becoming my apprentice, so you can’t return to the rear battlefield for now."

Qing Chen then stepped forward. "Grandmaster Qiu Ling can rest assured—Long Qi has gathered enough accomplishments that he does not need to remain on the rear battlefield. While he was stationed at Yinshan Gate, he arrested more than a dozen traitors and even exposed the three Guan brothers, including the Huaiyuan Gate Master, as Redbacks.

"After he was made acting Gate Master of Huaiyuan Gate, he arrested more than a dozen more traitors before exposing Yun Mubai as a Redback.

"After he stepped onto the battlefield behind the Mother Tree, he killed a corpse king with the strength of an Envoy and repaired the defensive sourcebox array on the second array base. He later repaired another sourcebox array, saved tens of millions of people, and even almost killed ten corpse kings at the Envoy level while in the New World. He even set up new sourcebox arrays to protect the human city in the New World.

"After leaving the rear battlefield, he went with me to find the terror ants’ natural predator that he had discovered in the Lower Realm some time ago, which is an extraordinary contribution.

"He has simply too many accomplishments to list, and there are so many ways he can contribute to humanity, regardless of if he is on the rear battlefield or within the Perennial World. Thus, there is no need for him to return and remain on the rear battlefield even if he joins the Lockbreaker Headquarters."

All of the accomplishments that Qing Chen had listed out just now made even Lu Yin feel like he was a hero, let alone everyone else listening.

Everyone had already heard of some of Lu Yin's exploits, but no one had expected him to have accomplished so much. In particular, what he had done on the rear battlefield was shocking, and everyone was stunned to the point of speechlessness.

Was this person really only an Enlighter? How was he able to accomplish feats that were even beyond Envoys?

Ni Huang carefully appraised Lu Yin. Amazement could be seen in the grand elder’s eyes, and he finally understood just why Progenitor Long had shown so much care for this child and why he had wanted the invitations to this ceremony be distributed so widely. This ceremony of worshiping the ancestors had been intended to startle the entire Perennial World. Long Qi’s talent was absolutely comparable to the Long Xing of back then, and he even eclipsed her in some aspects. The boy was truly a genius.

Xia Taili pouted. "With so many accomplishments, they have to have been faked. It’s a sham."

Xia Xing instantly scolded the girl. "Military achievements cannot be faked! Don't spread such nonsense! There will be trouble if others hear you."

Xia Taili just let out a cold snort in response to her father’s chidings.

Wang Si exclaimed. "I never expected this child to have accomplished so much. It’s no wonder why he was bold enough to risk becoming a public enemy of the four ruling powers in order to expose Yun Mubai as a Redback. His actions were not actually rashly made. He has a heart that can topple even the sky."



Wang Yun stared at Lu Yin. He was truly a powerful youth! He was absolutely able to stand on the same level as the Junior Progenitors, and he actually far surpassed them in terms of military achievements. Then, she remembered that she still owed him a favor.

The Celestial Frost Sect’s Bai Teng had a horrible expression on his face as he stared at Lu Yin. A powerful killing intent was buried deep in his eyes; such a genius could only be allowed to appear in the Celestial Frost Sect! How could such a person rise up from the White Dragon Clan? This could not be permitted!

"With such accomplishments, there indeed won’t be any problems." Grandmaster Qiu Ling felt relieved, and she started to speak of accepting Lu Yin as her apprentice.

At this moment, Bai Teng stepped forward. "Grandmaster, please wait a moment."

Grandmaster Qiu Ling looked over at Bai Teng, as did many other people.

"Sect Master Bai, what might be the matter?" Grandmaster Qiu Ling inquired.

Bai Teng replied, "Just now, Supervisor Qing Chen spoke a great deal about Long Qi's military exploits, but this sect leader has a question: the New World is held by those monsters. So when Long Qi and the others fell down there, how did they survive? Long Qi, can you explain this to us?"

Lu Yin frowned. "We fought to the death and were lucky."

Bai Teng sneered. "Is it really that simple?"

Lu Yin's eyes narrowed, and his head snapped around. When he spoke, his tone was no longer polite. "How complicated do you want the story to be? Why don’t you jump down there and see for yourself?"

"Long Qi, don't be rude to Sect Master Bai." Long Ke stopped Lu Yin from speaking further, and then he looked up at Bai Teng. "What does Sect Master Bai mean by these words?"

Bai Teng loudly stated, "Everyone, you mustn’t forget about what happened to the Wang family in the past! How did the war between the Sixth and Fifth Mainlands start? Have you all forgotten?"

Most people did not understand Bai Teng’s words, but the people with the highest statuses all understood.

.

Lu Yin felt confused. He remembered hearing something about the Wang family being involved with the Forgotten Ruins that he had visited in the Dominion Realm. There seemed to be some ancient incident involving the Wang family which had led to their battle technique of Forgotten Ruins being learned by Aeternus; could that be what Bai Teng was referring to?

Was the matter of the Wang family somehow connected to the Sixth Mainland? Lu Yin thought back to what he knew of the war between the two mainlands. What could the connection possibly be?

"Bai Teng, what nonsense are you spouting?" Long Ke snapped.

Bai Teng turned to look at Long Ke and replied, "He claims that after he fell to the New World, he saved millions of people. Do you really believe this to be true?"

Long Ke became furious. "Does Long Qi have to die in order for you to believe what he has done? Miracles can be found everywhere in the universe."

"At first, he was able to survive because the Twelve Marquises launched an all-out attack that encompassed the entire battlefield. All five array bases were all targeted, and the ones who fell fled to the Ever-Victorious Army. All five array bases’ generals had to move out to block the Twelve Marquises. This was what saved Long Qi and the others’ lives," Qing Chen explained.

Bai Teng said, "That’s quite the coincidence."

Grandmaster Qiu Ling frowned. "Sect Master Bai's suspicions are rather extreme, but there is some merit to what he says.”

There were also some doubts in her eyes as she looked at Lu Yin. “Long Qi, you killed almost ten corpse kings with the strength of Envoys? How did you manage this?"

Lu Yin was keenly aware of the sudden change in Grandmaster Qiu Ling's attitude towards him. While this felt rather strange, he still answered her, "This junior borrowed Supervisor Qing Chen’s merit points in order to trade for the Cloudguard Robes to protect me."

"That was nothing more than protection. How did you kill them?" Elder Xi Zi asked.

Lu Yin continued, "I had comrades to help me: Star Alliance’s Che Zhan, Zhou Tang, the Old Mother of the Eastern Mountain, and Mr. Guo. They all helped this junior."

"Then these achievements are not yours alone, but Lord Qing Chen tried to give you full credit," Bai Teng mocked.

Qing Chen was enraged.

Lu Yin's expression instantly chilled.

"Sect Master Bai, what are you trying to say?" Ni Huang asked in a low voice. The fact that Bai Teng was saying such things at this particular point in time meant that he was targeting the White Dragon Clan itself with the intent of destroying it.

Bai Teng’s voice also grew cold, "I simply want to know one thing. Long Qi, why did you kill Shaohong?"

Lu Yin's pupils instantly shrank.

Everyone erupted in a commotion.

Ni Huang was furious. "Bai Teng, do you know what you are saying?!"

Bai Teng lifted his head. "Of course I know! Someone saw Long Qi use the Void Rip battle technique when he was at the second array base! That battle technique is a secret that my Celestial Frost Sect will not share with anyone else, and not even our core disciples are able to learn it. In that case, how did Long Qi manage to use it?"

Lu Yin felt a chill cover his body. That was true. He had indeed used Void Rip at the second array base when he was fighting against the corpse king with the heavy hammer, and that sourcebox array had indeed been taken from Bai Shaohong. Did someone see him? And did they also report it to the Celestial Frost Sect? Who? The first person to pop up in Lu Yin’s mind was Hua Beibei, who had hounded Lu Yin while begging for protection and was constantly staring at Lu Yin.

"Long Qi, need I say anything more?" Bai Teng shouted.

Everyone turned to stare at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin's palms had become sweaty. He stared back at Bai Teng. "I never used your Void Rip battle technique."

"Nonsense! Someone saw you," Bai Teng snapped.

Lu Yin's voice grew slightly hoarse, "Who? Bring them out to accuse me."

Bai Teng loudly retorted, "Those people are still on the rear battlefield and are not able to leave. Regardless, it is a simple fact that you used our Void Rip battle technique. How did you learn it? Given the talent and strength that you’ve revealed, something unexpected must have happened during the trip to the Dominion Realm! Why? You were the one who killed Shaohong, right?"

Lu Yin mentally sighed in relief. No one was confronting him, which did not make sense. Even though he had used the sourcebox array to release a Void Rip on the battlefield in an emergency situation, who would pay any attention to such a thing on the battlefield?

They had to be falsely accusing him. Bai Teng was just trying to launch a smear campaign against Lu Yin in order to prevent him from becoming the apprentice of an Array Gradmaster and the disciple of a Progenitor. Even though Lu Yin did not want to accept the commander as his master, that did not mean that he would just sit back and let his reputation be ruined.

Since he was able to figure out Bai Teng’s motives, others were able to do so as well.

Ni Huang roared in a rage, "Bai Teng, you dare to make accusations without evidence!? Is this how the Celestial Frost Sect’s master conducts himself?"

"Bai Teng, you are slandering me, the Supervisor of Humility's Gate, before the Humility Gate’s Commander!" Qing Chen was also furious.

"Your Humility’s Gate was the one who deliberately boasted about his impressive achievements. Even if he was protected by the Cloudguard Robes, how could Long Qi have killed a single corpse king at the Envoy level? All of us know that corpse kings are stronger than humans within the same realm. Not even Shaohong could have killed so many corpse kings of that level, so why is your Humility's Gate going at legnths protecting him?" Bai Teng retorted, clearly unafraid of Mu Xie’s presence.

Sure enough, Bai Teng was trying to slander Lu Yin. Regardless of the cost, he could not let the White Dragon Clan succeed here. He was able to see how the White Dragon Clan was building their momentum and trying to surpass the Celestial Frost Sect in terms of reputation, especially since the Celestial Frost Sect had just lost their Junior Progenitor. That loss was a harsh blow to the Celestial Frost Sect. Very harsh. At the same time, an extraordinary genius had appeared within the White Dragon Clan, which made the entire Celestial Frost Sect uncomfortable.

Given the Celestial Frost Sect’s tyrannical attitude, they could not allow just an event to pass unmolested.

Bai Teng had absolutely no evidence that Long Qi had used Void Rip on the rear battlefield, but he had raised doubts in others, and that wasn’t even mentioning how he had made it sound as though Qing Chen had lied about Long Qi’s military exploits. Bai Teng was determined to see this through.

Qing Chen also regretted his words. He should not have shared all of Long Qi’s achievements. In truth, Qing Chen himself found it impossible to believe what Long Qi had done, but the members of Star Alliance had all remained behind in the New World, so it was useless to recount their accomplishments, and it was better to give them to Long Qi. Bai Teng had chosen his accusations well, and Qing Chen had been caught.
