Chapter 645: Chapter 614: Jealousy
“A total of 179,966 people, with 179,957 reaching the genius standard and nine falling short…” At the checkpoint, a law enforcement officer looked at Lin Yun’s group and said.
“I vouch for them.” Xia Qingqing stepped forward and stated.
“Boom-rumble…Hum…Hum…”
As she spoke, she released a powerful field of Domain Power. Simultaneously, successive mental skills launched an attack in one direction.
A level twelve cultivator not only had to reach level twelve in certain respects such as mental strength but also required the support of many level twelve mental skills to be considered a true level twelve powerhouse.
This checkpoint had ways of detecting such a power.
“Early stage level twelve mental powerhouse?”
Xia Qingqing had a marked talent in mental strength. She usually concealed her aura, so few could discern her true level, usually only able to sense that she was not ordinary. The enforcement officer hadn’t sensed her power beforehand and showed his surprise after witnessing Xia Qingqing’s displayed strength.
Mental powerhouses were rare, especially level twelve Mental Powerhouses. However, his astonishment didn’t arise from this reality. As a law enforcement officer at an eight to nine-level Civilization Star Domain checkpoint, he had seen his fair share of level twelve mental powerhouses, albeit in limited numbers. Still, the total wasn’t a small figure.
He had even encountered many late-stage and peak level twelve mental cultivators.
What surprised him were that Xia Qingqing, who he clearly sensed was merely using early-stage level twelve mental power, had produced results consistent with mid-stage level twelve.
Mental attack, for the most part, was straightforward. Cross-level capabilities like these were only found in the crème de la crème of geniuses. Combined with Xia Qingqing’s terrifyingly formidable strength at such a young age, she was set to make a stir in a nine-level Civilization Star Domain in the future.
The sight of such a figure, emerging seemingly out of nowhere from a group of conspicuous yet inconspicuous individuals, understandably shocked him.
Out of almost 180,000 people, only nine didn’t qualify as geniuses.
And the fact that a genius among geniuses was present in their midst, who wasn’t even the leader of the group. The actual leader, of comparable youth, was also a genius, but to what extent?
What formidable force did these people belong to?
No ordinary force could have such deep roots.
The law enforcement officer thought.
Some significant forces were not in the nine-level Civilization Star Domain but were undeniably formidable.
“Those who reach the twelfth level within a thousand years qualify as geniuses. Moreover, such geniuses can vouch for a hundred people entering the nine-level Civilization Star Domain without incurring any cost. This woman can certainly vouch for those remaining nine.” The enforcement officer quickly added politely.
He, an officer at the eight to nine-level Civilization Star Domain checkpoint, had a fairly high rank. Even people like Bahu Ye treated him with respect. However, a genius of this degree was someone he could not afford to offend.
After all, he was just an insignificant enforcement officer at an eight-nine Civilization Star Domain checkpoint.
“Is there such a genius standard? To guarantee a hundred people admission to the nine-level Civilization Star Domain? And for free?” Bahu Ye was astonished.
He didn’t know about this genius standard or this rule. There was no any fee… Level twelve powerhouses like him could guarantee others’ entrance into the nine-level Civilization Star Domain, but it still required a fee. A hundred billion spirit crystals each for someone with a level twelve powerhouse as guarantor, and even more for those with level eleven powerhouses as guarantor.
Some level twelve powerhouses even made a business out of this at the eight-nine Civilization Star Domain checkpoint. Although each level twelve powerhouse could only guarantee ten people’s entry into the nine-level Civilization Star Domain within a certain period, the money they made was effortless.
Nine people meant nine hundred billion spirit crystals were waived.
The number of spirit crystals was not enormous, but it was a matter of prestige.
“Those people should see this. What a bunch of blind fools…” Bahu Ye glanced at some people who had passed the checkpoint and were watching them in mockery, sneering inwardly.
Soon, Lin Yun’s group passed the check and entered the checkpoint.
“What? They all passed?”
“How is that possible?”
“Could it be that they’ve all reached the genius level?”
On the other side, the waiting crowd watched this scene, their eyes wide with disbelief.
“Hey! You hadn’t been bribed to let them pass, had you? We’re all watching! We are all top figures from the eight-level Civilization Star Domain, and some of us are big shots in the nine-level Civilization Star Domain. This is rather blatant, don’t you think? Don’t tell us they’re from the nine-level Civilization Star Domain. They told us earlier that they’re from lower civilizations…”
At the other side of the checkpoint, a law enforcement officer twisted his head to look at his colleague, voicing his dissatisfaction.
“Watch your tongue. They’ve all reached genius standards. You can sense this once they cross over!” The enforcement officer replied, his brows furrowed. He could see the data coming in from the other side. Though the data left him rather astonished, he knew it was accurate.
Being accused out of nowhere irritated him.
“How is that possible… That’s over a hundred thousand people…” The level twelve cultivator’s complexion altered slightly.
That it was true stunned him.
He then glanced up at Lin Yun’s group, filled with jealousy.
In fact, he had been hostile to Lin Yun’s group from the start.
Because many geniuses hoped that… everyone else would be mediocre. Seeing a genius of equal status would instantly spark hostility, and seeing a more formidable genius would incite even intense animosity, leading them to try and find faults in the latter at every turn.
This level twelve cultivator was no exception.
Earlier, Lin Yun’s group had displayed an impressive talent, even surpassing his by a lot, naturally stirring his hostility.
Thankfully, he later found out that Lin Yun was the Cosmic Trading System’s owner.
He figured that the strength of Lin Yun’s group must have been improved through the Cosmic Trading System. He kept reassuring himself of this.
Although Lin Yun’s subsequent breakthrough suggested otherwise, and even if it were true, it wouldn’t have been so pure, and Lin Yun was clearly talented. But he kept reassuring himself that he was better than Lin Yun.
Now, seeing nearly two hundred thousand people meet the genius standards, how could he not be shocked? And jealous?p>
