Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation-Chapter 504 - 215: The Warmth of the State Preceptor

"Palace Master, Xu Jin’s Cultivation Level has broken through to the Star Refining Eighth Layer."

"But the number of Gold Stars in the Star-picking Secret Realm hasn’t increased again."

"However, two more Silver Stars have been added."

The color of hope that had just emerged in the eyes of State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao stalled in an instant.

The number of Gold Stars in the Star-picking Secret Realm hadn’t increased, but Xu Jin had already broken through to the Star Refining Eighth Layer?

And the Silver Stars had increased.

Had he challenged and failed?

Or?

This was a piece of information that somewhat dismayed State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao.

Both Chief Peng and the State Preceptor understood what this implied!

It was easiest to obtain Gold Stars during the latter period of the Third Tier Star Refining Realm and the early period of the Fourth Tier Star Condensing Realm.

After that, the higher one’s Cultivation Level, the more difficult it would be to obtain Gold Stars.

Xu Jin had consecutively plucked six Gold Stars, and now suddenly, he hadn’t plucked any and had broken through.

This was a very ominous sign.

’The saying goes, one slow step leads to being slow at every step!’ freēwēbηovel.c૦m

At the peak of the Seventh Layer in the Third Tier of Star Refining, if one couldn’t defeat the Gold Star Level Heart Demon or Gatekeeper of the Fourth Tier Star Condensing Seventh Layer, then at the peak of the Eighth Layer in the Third Tier of Star Refining, it was highly probable that they couldn’t defeat the Gold Star Level Heart Demon or Gatekeeper of the Fourth Tier Star Condensing Eighth Layer.

In the future, this gap would only widen.

In other words, Xu Jin might never be able to pluck a Gold Star again.

Of course, it wasn’t absolute; plucking one or two occasionally was possible.

After a long while, State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao suddenly chuckled bitterly.

"Elder Peng, do you think I’m being too greedy?"

Elder Peng, the Chief Steward, shook his head, "The Palace Master is only thinking of enhancing the strength of the Da Chen National Daoist School, where does greed come into it."

State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao stood up and paced a few steps, "Logically, with the six Gold Stars Xu Jin has at the base, the strength of our Da Chen National Daoist School could definitely go up a level.

Just one seventh-tier middle Fire Origin Star Pattern is already about to bring our Da Chen National Daoist School another seventh-tier Expert.

Many who are stuck at the peak of the Sixth Tier unable to break through now also have an additional choice in the Fire Series.

But I still think..."

"Gold Stars are precious indeed!"

Chief Peng sighed, "A disciple who can pluck one or two Gold Stars is already an exceptional genius, one who can consecutively pluck six is seen once in a hundred years.

It is normal for the Palace Master to have such thoughts."

But State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao did not speak and continued pacing back and forth in the hall. After mulling over it for 15 minutes, he finally slowly said, "Elder Peng, what do you think we can do now to enhance Xu Jin’s strength?"

"Real combat can be ruled out. I’ve observed and studied Xu Jin’s combat, and I’ve found that the youngster’s combat level is extremely high, belonging to the type that has been honed for a long time."

"Star Patterns, on the other hand, are possible! If we pass on seventh-tier or higher Star Patterns of other series to him, we can also enhance his strength in the short term, but they cannot be passed on now.

Passing them on now, he can only engrave them in the positions of the Star Patterns of the Central and Lower Star Palaces. When he breaks through to Star Condensing, it would undoubtedly be wasting several Star Pattern positions.

Once he reaches the Fourth Tier Star Condensing, then we can pass on the seventh-tier or higher Star Patterns. If he can comprehend and succeed in engraving, then it is also possible for him to pluck one or two more Gold Stars," Elder Peng stated.

"For the time being, there is only one way to rapidly enhance his strength."

As Elder Peng said this, State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao suddenly turned and said, "Divine Soul!"

"Indeed so, but increasing Divine Soul Cultivation is difficult!" Chief Peng stated.

"No matter the cost, if Xu Jin can pluck a few more Gold Stars, it will be worth it. This can not only enhance Xu Jin’s strength but also permanently enhance the strength of our Da Chen National Daoist School."

Suddenly, State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao clenched his fists, "Let’s do it."

"Are you suggesting the Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pill, Palace Master? The National Daoist School produces the Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pill, and only two are allocated to your side each month."

"No!"

State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao interrupted Elder Peng, "The Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pill is too slow. I am going to give him the Nine-leaf Golden Lotus Seed."

At these words, Chief Peng’s face changed, "Palace Master, isn’t the Nine-leaf Golden Lotus Seed the Pill you’ve prepared for your own breakthrough? If you give it to Xu Jin, what will you do for your future breakthrough?

Although you reached the Eighth Tier quite early, your Divine Soul has never been able to break through to the Fifth Tier, making it impossible to fully unleash your strength.

Without the Nine-leaf Golden Lotus Seed, it will be even harder for you to break through!"

"I haven’t been able to break through the Fifth Tier of my Divine Soul mainly due to insufficient accumulation. How many years have I risen? When I was born, Tianyang Star Lord was already at the Eighth Tier, this point, I cannot compare.

The Nine-leaf Golden Lotus Seed merely increases the chances of my Divine Soul breaking through to the Fifth Tier by half.

If Xu Jin uses it and is able to pluck two more Gold Stars, that would pay for itself.

If he can pluck four more Gold Stars, that would be a huge profit."

"Think again, Palace Master!" Chief Peng urged urgently, "The Nine-leaf Golden Lotus Seed is not like the Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pill. The Dragon Turtle Soul Refining Pill can be sought, but the Nine-leaf Golden Lotus Seed requires chance, luck, and strength, all of which are indispensable.

Even if you wanted more, Palace Master, you couldn’t get them."

However, resignation was apparent in the eyes of State Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao, "I’ve made up my mind! If Xu Jin used it and could pluck two more Gold Stars, our Da Chen National Daoist School could have another seventh-tier middle or even seventh-tier upper Star Pattern.

If he could pluck three to four, our Da Chen National Daoist School could have at least one more eighth-tier lower Star Pattern.

Do you know what an eighth-tier lower Star Pattern represents?

It might even allow you to break through to the Eighth Tier!

And extend your life!

In the future, every few decades, it might allow our Da Chen National Daoist School to have one more Eighth Tier!

With each additional Eighth Tier, the strength of our Da Chen National Daoist School will become stronger!"

Upon finishing, Cheng Yuxiao’s feet twinkled with Starlight, and in a flash, he left the Pill Dawn Academy, heading straight for Xu Jin’s courtyard.
