Chapter 106: Am I a Genius? (End of This Book)



At this moment, Elder Chen frowned as he looked at the young man before him, revealing a hint of confusion.

Three days ago, he had personally witnessed this teacher, who had just been recruited by the dean, absorb a large amount of True Energy from many of them for his Energy Storing. Even with rapid progress, it was impossible for him to reach the Organ Realm!

Did he think he could take the assessment without having reached the required level? What a foolish dream!

Suppressing his displeasure, Elder Chen spoke, “To take the assessment for becoming an elder, there are two conditions: First, your cultivation must reach the mid-stage of the Source Pool Sixth Layer of the Organ Realm! Second, you must have contributed 500 merit points to the academy!”

“Merit points?” Zhang Xuan asked curiously.

Elder Chen explained, “It refers to contributions made to the academy! Elders represent the authority of the academy. With this status, they naturally have a certain management power over the academy, so they must have made a contribution to qualify. Otherwise, if anyone could become an elder just by reaching the cultivation level, how would the academy be managed?”

Zhang Xuan nodded. “What must I do to earn merit points?”

There are many ways for teachers to accumulate merit points! Teaching students who achieve great results in the academy competition can earn merit points; repairing damaged cultivation methods or texts in the library can earn merit points; helping the academy tame Source Beasts or resolving crises can also earn merit points…”

Elder Chen continued, “The amount of merit points earned varies based on the contributions made. 500 points isn’t too much, but it’s not that simple to achieve. That’s why, although White Rock Academy has been established for many years with over three thousand teachers, there are only a little more than ten elders.”

Zhang Xuan understood, and he inquired again, “What should I do to earn them the fastest?”

“You can’t be serious about wanting to become an elder!”

Seeing his earnest expression, Elder Chen revealed a hint of displeasure. “I advise you to focus on breaking through to the mid-stage of the Source Pool Sixth Layer first… To reach this level, your internal organs must be as tough as iron. Every breath must be very prolonged; you could hold your breath for an hour without issue… You’ve only just started cultivating, don’t aim too high!”

Zhang Xuan shook his head. “I’ve already reached the Organ Realm!”

After saying this, he suddenly released his aura, and his skin felt as hard as iron, while his internal organs roared like fierce tigers.

“Is this… the Tiger-Leopard Thunder Roar?”

Elder Chen’s eyes widened in disbelief.

The Tiger-Leopard Thunder Roar is something only experts in the Organ Realm can achieve. Three days ago, he was still in the Energy Storing Realm, and in just three days he had reached this level… Even having seen various geniuses, he found it hard to comprehend.

“Now, can I prove that I qualify for the elder assessment?” Zhang Xuan smiled.

“Well, you may have qualified, but I still need to verify it.”

Dropping his earlier arrogance, Elder Chen quickly stood up and in a blink reached the testing formation. He pointed, “Come over and test your strength! If your strength is over 30 horsepower, it will confirm that you really have reached this level.”

Zhang Xuan, tired of continuing to be low-key and hide, threw a punch.

Boom!

The formation shook slightly, and two numbers appeared—60!

The maximum strength at the peak of the Source Pool Sixth Layer of the Organ Realm is 60 horsepower. As long as he proved himself to possess elder-level strength, it wouldn’t raise any suspicion.

“Not only in the Organ Realm, but at the peak level…”

Elder Chen trembled with excitement, no longer doubting Zhang Xuan. He quickly said, “On that wall over there, the methods for earning merit points and other means to gain experience are written. Teacher Zhang can take a look, and if you have any questions, just ask me!”

Knowing that Zhang Xuan’s strength was likely greater than his own, Elder Chen no longer carried himself with the same pride.

“Thank you!”

Zhang Xuan didn’t say more, quickly walking over to the wall. Sure enough, it was densely filled with methods for earning merit points, with several entries exceeding twenty.

The first entry read: Find the remains of the first dean of the White Rock Academy, Lu Qing, who fought against Source Beasts and was buried deep within the Huaiyuan Mountains. Numerous teachers and students over the years have sought to find the remains and properly inter them at the academy\'s back mountain, but none have succeeded. The reward for completion is 3000 merit points!

The second entry: Find a lost treasure of the White Rock Academy, the “Chaotian Sword,” which belonged to the third dean. Unfortunately, it was lost during a battle. Whoever finds it and submits it will receive 2500 merit points.

The third entry: Lead the White Rock Academy to become the number one among the surrounding ten cities, worth 2000 merit points…

As Zhang Xuan scanned the wall, his eyes quickly came to a halt.

The seventeenth entry: Repair the library’s formation, worth 500 merit points!

“Can I try this one?”

Repairing the formation seemed straightforward. He could use the Library of Heaven\'s Path to tackle it without wasting time, and most importantly, the library was very close to him.

“You know how to repair formations?”

Surprised that he had chosen this task, Elder Chen looked over with curiosity.

Formations are exceedingly complex. Without talent, achieving results is nearly impossible. Could it be that this individual not only excels in taming beasts, teaching, and cultivating but is also skilled in formations?

“I’ve read some books on formations. I’ll go take a look; what if I succeed?”

Zhang Xuan casually explained, then curiously asked, “What does the library’s formation do? Why is it broken, and why hasn’t it been repaired?”

The library’s formation serves three purposes: First, it prevents books from being eroded by rampant Source Energy; second, it keeps unauthorized individuals from breaking in; third, it prevents pests like insects from infiltrating. As for why it is broken…

As he spoke, Elder Chen looked over with a blank expression. “You don’t know?”

“Why would I know?”

Zhang Xuan was puzzled. “I’ve only been to the library a few times, and every time I was just reading books; I didn’t pay attention to the formation.”

“Just reading books?”

Elder Chen shook his head. “The first time you went to the library to cultivate, you triggered the phenomenon of the Devouring Source Dragon. The formation couldn’t withstand it and collapsed at that moment…”

“The Devouring Source Dragon?” Zhang Xuan frowned. “What’s that?”

“You don’t know?” Elder Chen’s eyelids twitched, realizing he might have said too much.

“How would I know?” Zhang Xuan asked, confused.

“The Devouring Source Dragon is a phenomenon created when one absorbs Source Energy too quickly during cultivation, forming a swirling vortex resembling a giant dragon!”

Since he had already spoken, it made little sense to keep hiding it. Elder Chen hesitated for a moment and explained, “That day, I, along with Dean Lu and over ten elders, rushed over in a hurry to address this matter. Otherwise, the entire library might have been drained by your absorption.”

“Wait…”

After hearing the explanation, Zhang Xuan stood frozen in place. It was only now that he understood why Dean Lu and the others had been unusually forgiving and friendly toward him.

He had always thought he had done a good job hiding; little did he know, he had already been discovered!

He couldn’t entirely blame himself; after entering the Source World, he had been unable to find a Source Pool. He had always thought that using the Xuan World as a substitute was a reflection of his lack of talent. However, it turned out he was a peerless genius…

If that were the case, the Xuan World not only successfully replaced the Source Pool but seemed even more powerful!

“Wait a minute; the Devouring Source Dragon phenomenon occurred after I became an auxiliary teacher. Does that mean you knew about my cultivation talent before then?”

Zhang Xuan couldn’t help but ask.

Even in the library, he had felt that he absorbed Source Energy too quickly, which might have raised suspicions. But before that, he had always been very careful to hide.

“Of course, we knew. You absorbed the Heaven’s Fate Energy and triggered the Nine Dragons Draw Heaven’s Fate phenomenon; your Destiny Disks have been damaged three times in a row…”

Elder Chen smiled wryly.

“This…”

After hearing the explanation, Zhang Xuan finally understood.

All along, his so-called low profile relied on everyone else cooperating, rather than him genuinely being low-key…

Since that’s the case, why keep pretending?

Instead of hiding and being evasive, he might as well act openly. As long as he did so grandly, it would make it hard for others to guess.

At worst, he could just blame it on a mysterious teacher, just as Sun Qiang suggested.

After all, this had already been done in the Master Teacher Continent once, and he didn’t mind doing it a second time.

With that in mind, Zhang Xuan was too lazy to continue hiding. He waved his hand, saying, “Let’s go check out the formation and see what’s wrong with it!”

First, he would become an academy elder and then raise his cultivation to the Jade Bone Realm.

With enough strength, what could the Destiny Hall do to him?

From Su Qiao\'s words, he had also learned quite a bit. Even if the Hanyuan Dynasty had the Destiny Hall, its experts wouldn’t be too formidable.

With the Library of Heaven\'s Path at his disposal, he could see through all flaws. Let’s see how I can fool them!

Previously, if others hadn’t noticed that he was acting strange and he could maintain a low profile, he could have avoided a lot of trouble. Now that nearly all the experts in the city were aware, it was pointless to keep pretending.

If he couldn’t keep a low profile, then he might as well act high-profile!
