1659 The Seven Judges!
w.a.n.g Teng looked at the young man in front of him. He was surprised by his sudden enthusiasm.
This person looked like a human but he had a horn on his head. He must be from a special race and he gave off a powerful aura. He was a heaven stage martial warrior!
“Yes!” w.a.n.g Teng nodded.
“I’ve long heard of you. You’re quite famous in the Seven Stellar Academies now,” the young man said with a meaningful smile.
w.a.n.g Teng smiled modestly and exchanged a few words of humility. He had already learned about this situation from Sikong The Second so there was no need to repeat it.
The reputation of the Star Rankings had its pros and cons. He might be able to make use of it.
Let’s not talk about this for now.
The young man in front of him seemed warm-hearted but he was acting like a senior. This made him uncomfortable.
He was new so they didn’t know each other. Hence, there was no need for unnecessary words.
“We are the logistics staff from the faculty’s arbitration a.s.sociation. My name is Sari. I will bring you to your lodgings now.” The young man introduced himself and brought everyone onto a small s.p.a.cecraft. They flew towards the mainland.
Throughout the journey, w.a.n.g Teng and the others had been traveling by wars.h.i.+p so this was the first time they boarded a s.p.a.cecraft. They finally found a sense of familiarity.
This was a universe level s.p.a.cecraft so it was extremely luxurious.
As for Sari, he was a heaven stage martial warrior. It was considered quite impressive for him to be able to use a universe level s.p.a.cecraft.
From the looks of it, in the faculty arbitration a.s.sociation… he seemed to hold a certain position of importance within the logistics department.
Thus, when everyone boarded the universe level s.p.a.cecraft, one could see a hint of pride on his face.
“Junior brothers and sisters, you can use s.p.a.cecraft to fly within the Seventh Stellar Academy. However, you need to register the s.p.a.cecraft first. I will send you some things to take note of in the academy. You must remember them clearly. If not, it will cause unnecessary trouble.”
At this moment, everyone was sitting in the lobby of the s.p.a.cecraft. Sari glanced at them and said calmly.
“This is not an exaggeration on my part. If any of you violate the rules of the academy, the members of the arbitration a.s.sociation will mete out punishments!”
Upon hearing these words, a chill ran through the hearts of the young martial warriors. It seemed that there wasn’t as much freedom in the stellar academy as they had initially thought.
Also, what was the faculty arbitration a.s.sociation?
Many people were puzzled.
“The faculty arbitration a.s.sociation is an arbitration body formed by the most powerful students from the Seven Stellar Academies. Their authority is derived from the academy itself as well as from the Stellar Arbitration Council.”
“In theory, the younger generations of the Seven Stellar Academies are all under the control of the academy’s arbitration a.s.sociation.”
Sari smiled when he saw everyone’s confusion and continued explaining to them.
The talented martial warriors from the various territories were shocked. The faculty arbitration a.s.sociation’s power was immense. It was able to govern the younger generation of the Seven Stellar Academies.
And it looked like it had a powerful backing!
However, the instant they understood what the faculty arbitration a.s.sociation was, another Stellar Arbitration Council appeared.
They got confused again.
w.a.n.g Teng blinked. From the sound of it, the faculty arbitration a.s.sociation should be an organization within the academy. As for the Stellar Arbitration Council…
As its name suggested, it must be a huge organization within this vast universe!
It was hard to imagine who founded the Stellar Arbitration Council.
Sari smiled. He didn’t explain what the Stellar Arbitration Council was and just continued.
“The ones in charge of the faculty arbitration a.s.sociation are the strongest martial warriors in the Seven Stellar Academies. They are all talents who reached the eternal stage within 30,000 years. In the entire universe, they are an insurmountable presence. Hence, it’s best not to rashly challenge the authority of the arbitration a.s.sociation.”
“Reached the eternal stage in 30,000 years!” Everyone widened their eyes in shock as if they had heard something incredible.
That was the eternal stage!
Many people might not even reach the eternal stage in a hundred thousand years!
It was truly unimaginable that those seven geniuses who control the faculty arbitration a.s.sociation were able to reach the eternal stage within just thirty thousand years.
The significance of a genius becoming an eternal stage martial warrior was entirely different.
Some eternal stage martial warriors were known as marquesses, and some were known as rulers. The main reason for this difference was their abilities.
Some prodigies, even in their weaker stages, were able to fight against higher-level opponents. If such prodigies reached the eternal stage, their combat power would undoubtedly be terrifying. A single person could defeat numerous opponents of the same stage.
It could be said that those seven strongest individuals from the academies were the epitome of exceptional cultivation speed and unparalleled strength.
Even though the young martial warriors present were all talents from various factions, they didn’t dare to say that they could reach the eternal stage within 30,000 years. It would be good enough if they could reach the universe stage at all.
They had barely set foot on the continent where the academy was located, and already, they could feel the weight of immense pressure upon them!
Even w.a.n.g Teng turned serious.
But, his blood was boiling with excitement.
This was more interesting!
Being invincible was lonely!
Also, 30,000 years was too long. He hoped that he wouldn’t need 30,000 years to reach the eternal stage.
“The seven strongest martial warriors in the seven faculties are called the chiefs or… the judges!” Sari smiled when he saw the young talented martial warriors getting intimidated by him.
He felt the same way when he first entered the stellar academy.
However, at that time, their understanding of the Seven Judges was only superficial. After so many years had pa.s.sed, they truly came to understand what those seven judges represented, and their awe and reverence towards them became even more profound.
These were seven insurmountable mountains!
“Judges!”
Everyone was flabbergasted. They felt as if there were seven majestic and powerful figures pressing down on their heads. The immense pressure made it hard for them to breathe.
“Of course, the Seven Judges are way ahead of you so we won’t see them normally. You just need to know their presence,” Sari said calmly.
“There are many eternal stage and universe stage martial warriors under the seven judges. If you can grow and develop in the future, and catch the attention of the seven arbitrators, perhaps you will earn their favor.”
Hmph~ w.a.n.g Teng snorted in his heart.
He was already establis.h.i.+ng his authority over the freshmen as soon as they enter the stellar academy. Their power and authority were truly formidable!
Everyone present was a genius from the various territories. Asking them to submit to the seven judges was equivalent to looking down on them.
Maybe Sari made an unintentional mistake because he respected the seven judges too much. Hence, he was forcing this respect on them.
But, to the talents present, this was unbearable. It was a humiliation.
Many young talents were furious and unconvinced. They came to the Seven Stellar Academies to become stronger, not to become subordinate of a formidable warrior.
Sari smiled. A hint of disdain appeared at the edge of his lips.
He acted the same way in the past. At the start, he was unconvinced but only after experiencing the brutality of reality did he know how terrifying the seven judges were.
These talents from the various territorial domains would eventually follow in his footsteps.
Of course, there might be people who could get closer to the seven judges, but only close. The eternal stage and universe stage martial warriors under them were instances.
They were once the most outstanding geniuses with broad perspectives and strong spirits. However, now, they had all been defeated by the seven judges and willingly submitted themselves.
What was the difference?
As he thought about this, Sari glanced at the young faces in front of him as if he was watching a good show. How would they feel if they remembered their emotions today?
They would probably feel complicated!
Suddenly, he saw one young man and the smile on his face disappeared.
That person had no trace of anger or resistance on his face. There was only an extreme calmness as if the reputation of the seven judges had no impact on him.
w.a.n.g Teng!
It was him!
Sari squinted. Many thoughts went through his mind.
It was said that the Seven Judges were talents who entered the Star Rankings too!
w.a.n.g Teng was an accident!
The biggest accident in this batch!
Could a peerless genius who entered the Star Rankings shake the position of the seven judges?
No!
Impossible!
So what if he entered the Star Rankings? He hadn’t matured fully. Too many talents died in the process.
On the other hand, the seven judges earned their reputation through their own efforts and abilities!
They deserved everyone’s respect!
He would only be able to convince them if he reached that stage. If not, everything would be empty talk.
“Scary! Scary!” Round Ball couldn’t help but mutter to itself. It was overwhelmed with shock as it once again widened its perspective.
F**k, the Seven Stellar Academies were filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
Eternal stage was considered the pinnacle in the outside world, but it seemed that there were many of them within these Seven Stellar Academies.
Compared to the seven judges who achieved the eternal stage in 30,000 years, the eternal stage martial warriors outside were nothing.
“Don’t make such a fuss. You’re embarra.s.sing me,” w.a.n.g Teng said calmly.
Round Ball choked.
This fellow was really arrogant!
“These are ultimate geniuses who reached the eternal stage within 30,000 years. You mustn’t underestimate them,” Round Ball couldn’t help but interject.
“I’m not looking down on them, but they can be surpa.s.sed,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
Round Ball didn’t know what to say. It wanted to persuade w.a.n.g Teng not to be too conceited but it felt that its persuasion was a little useless when it remembered w.a.n.g Teng’s past achievements.
For instance, in the League Of Talents, it was certain that w.a.n.g Teng wouldn’t be able to enter the top 10.
In the end, w.a.n.g Teng got first place and even entered the Star Rankings!
It was a tight slap to his face.
w.a.n.g Teng might be able to surpa.s.s The Seven Judges. Who knows?
Many talents found it extremely difficult to reach the eternal stage in 30,000 years.
But, look at how young w.a.n.g Teng was!
He was a little more than 20 years old!
He could reach the eternal stage within 30,000 years.
Round Ball’s eyes lit up. It suddenly felt hopeful for w.a.n.g Teng. He might be able to shake the seven judges’ positions in the future and replace them.
If w.a.n.g Teng became a judge, its status would rise too.
Whenever a person mentioned the judge, he would mention Round Ball, the intelligent lifeform who helped the judge along his journey.
Just thinking about it made it excited. Hahaha…
