Ye Xue’s expression didn’t change. She didn’t have any doubts about this matter.

Jiang Chen and Ye Xue entered the carriage as Li Changqing watched them resentfully The carriage’s interior had a large space, and one wouldn’t feel stifled at all in it. They could sit or even stand here if they wanted. Even as the carriage turned to face another direction, the people inside didn’t feel anything at all.

Jiang Chen revealed a satisfied smile. He was looking forward to the Baohai Auction.

Just as the carriage was about to set off, an unusual aura suddenly approached them.

“If it’s no bother, may I sit here with you?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Xue said in a low voice, “It’s our Headmaster.”

Jiang Chen was startled. He didn’t want to treat him disrespectfully. He went outside and saw an old man with an air of transcendence. His spirits were glowing, and he had a rosy face. He wore a dignified, yet still amiable expression, and he possessed immeasurable power.

“Headmaster Bai, don’t be reserved. Please, come inside,” Jiang Chen said politely.

The Abundance Land Academy’s Headmaster was surprised by this. He had heard that Jiang Chen was arrogant and unruly; however, it seemed like he was a courteous and polite junior.

The carriage was able to accommodate more than ten people, and three people would obviously be a cinch for it.

Headmaster Bai obviously wasn’t short of an admission ticket, yet he still came over to sit with Jiang Chen instead of using his own carriage. The crowd was bewildered by this, and so was Jiang Chen. However, since Ye Xue would be in the academy for a long time, Jiang Chen treated the headmaster amiably.

“Heroes appear among youngsters. Jiang Chen, you are the pride of the Human Clan, and you have even broken the curse of your divine body.”

Headmaster Bai hadn’t come here because of Ye Xue. Jiang Chen could guess his motive, but he still sat calmly and greeted him.

“You have broken the curse of your divine body, and you have started to make progress toward the great mastery level. Jiang Chen, you still have a long road to walk down.”

Headmaster Bai wasn’t anxious. He started leading him step by step, gradually changing the topic under discussion.

“I’m aware of this,” Jiang Chen said.

“The academy was established to help geniuses like you, and it’s especially the case in this era where myriad clans have appeared. Why don’t you join the academy? You can be with Ye Xue can work with her. Won’t it be perfect?” Headmaster Bai said with a smile.

Headmaster Bai seemed like a benevolent old man, and one wouldn’t feel stifled at all while facing him. As he listened, Jiang Chen’s will started wavering, and it was especially the case when he heard his last words.

“Headmaster!”

Jiang Chen wanted to tactfully decline, but the headmaster interrupted him, and said, “You are as free as the wind and don’t want to be constricted by anything. I understand. It can also be seen from the road you walked down until today that you still can grow stronger without joining any academy.”

Jiang Chen revealed a startled look. He nodded.

“However, if you travel the world like this and drift away from others like willow’s leaves, when a strong wind blows over, you will still lose your freedom. A great man must reveal his talent and use his power to make a great base for himself. If you can achieve this even without joining an academy, then it will be easier for you if you do join one. You will simply be saving time.”

This headmaster’s powers of persuasion were vastly greater than the previous person Jiang Chen had met. Jiang Chen’s will started wavering just due to several words.

“For example, the Supreme Spirit Skill needed by Ye Xue can’t be obtained outside the academy.” Headmaster Bai felt like he had spoken enough, and he used his trump card.

The expressions of Jiang Chen and Ye Xue changed drastically.

“Headmaster, what do you mean by this?” Jiang Chen asked.

“The academy isn’t just a gathering place for people who wanted to cultivate. It’s a vaster stage for them. If you walk down to its summit, you can fulfill Ye Xue’s wishes.”

There was no man who didn’t want to fulfill his woman’s wishes.

“Headmaster, please don’t say anything further,” Ye Xue said coldly.

The carriage’s temperature dropped sharply, and as Jiang Chen and Headmaster Bai exhaled, distinct white steam came out of their mouths.

Headmaster Bai was surprised by this. He hadn’t expected Ye Xue to react in such a way.

“I will get the Supreme Spirit Skill by myself.” Ye Xue stood up slowly while wearing an ice-cold expression. “I won’t allow Jiang Chen to do something he doesn’t want for me,” she said earnestly.

“Senior sister.” Jiang Chen fell a warm feeling well up in his heart.

Headmaster Bai didn’t expect that Ye Xue would have her own view about this matter, and he fell silent for a moment. However, he didn’t give up.

“Let’s not talk about the Supreme Spirit Skill for now. Will Jiang Chen shortly be getting in contact with the Martial Soul Stone? You can get them in the black market, but Martial Soul Stones’ price is too high there.”

“The black market?” Jiang Chen knew what the Martial Soul Stones were, but he didn’t understand what Headmaster Bai meant by the black market.

“Is it possible that…” Jiang Chen suddenly recalled that the Heavenly Martial Arts Realm was divided between the three great academies, and since the Martial Soul Stone was a strategic resource, they would surely try to monopolize it.

As a matter of fact, this was really the case, and even though Jiang Chen was dissatisfied with the academies’ actions, he couldn’t change the whole world’s situation.

“We’re here,” Headmaster Bai sighed, and Jiang Chen realized that the carriage had come to a stop.

“Jiang Chen, I won’t force, nor I will threaten you. You are free to choose what you want to do. But, if you come to our Abundance Land Academy, you can immediately go to a heave-grade continent and display your power and talent there.”

Headmaster Bai stood up and strode outside.

“Oh, by the way, Ye Xue will also go to a heaven-grade continent, and I assume that you will go to the same one.” Headmaster Bai’s words hung in the air. He lifted the curtain and strode outside.

“He really has a glib-tongue and is very persuasive,” Jiang Chen sighed and said.

“Jiang Chen, please don’t do anything you’re not happy with just because of me,” Ye Xue said.

“Senior sister, I’m happy to do anything for you.”

Even a clever woman has a sentimental side, and upon hearing this, Ye Xue felt like she would melt completely.

“Jiang Chen!” Ye Xue glared at him and left the carriage quickly. But when Jiang Chen went outside, he found her waiting there for him.

“If I find out that you are using such sweet words on other women, I won’t forgive you.”

Jiang Chen stroked his chin, enjoying this.

Jiang Chen and Ye Xue didn’t forget their proper business, and they started talking about the academies.

The Heavenly Martial Arts Realm’s continents were divided into three grades: spirit, heaven, and sanctity. Spirit-grade continents were like a pool of stagnant water because the resources there were divided evenly, and fights would rarely occur there.

The three great academies’ disciples were held in high esteem in Sky Reaching City.

As for heaven-grade continents, their situation was completely different. Wars would occur there constantly, and the fire of wars would never be extinguished.

“Spirit-grade continents are like new military camps, while heaven-grade continents are like battlefields. Senior sister, will you also go to war?” Jiang Chen spoke excitedly.

“That’s right. It’s only through great meritorious service that I will be able to get a Supreme Spirit Skill,” Ye Xue said calmly.

Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and came to a decision.

“Let’s go together and fight alongside each other,” Jiang Chen said.

“You should strive hard to raise your Realm Level so that you don’t die there.” Ye Xue had mixed feelings about this matter, and she felt anxious as she spoke.

“Senior sister, it seems like I’m stronger than you. So, isn’t it me who should be saying that?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Xue curled the corners of her mouth up to reveal a faint smile. She asked, “Is it the case? Can you freeze a Martial Emperor?”

“Well?” Jiang Chen recalled the Spirit Skill used by his senior sister to save him. She had temporarily frozen a Martial Emperor.

Jiang Chen also recalled that the Spirits’ power could quickly increase. He realized that he didn’t know at all how strong his senior sister was.

Ye Xue didn’t inform and walked forward while wearing a complacent expression.

Jiang Chen had no choice but to follow behind her.
