Chapter 162: Rising Star | Wan Zu Zhi Jie [Trans]

Wan Zu Zhi Jie [Trans] - Updated on March 20, 2025

While Su Yu and Bai Feng were tinkering in the lab.

In the Cultivation Pavilion, within a large courtyard.

At this moment, many people gathered.

The Single Divine Literature faction had a full eight Pavilion Elders.

The academy had a total of 42 Pavilion Elders, of which 36 were in the Mountain Sea Realm, and 6 were senior Ascending Cloud 9th level experts, very old and highly qualified, so they also served as Pavilion Elders.

Of the Single Divine Literature faction’s 8 Pavilion Elders, Zheng Yuming had been crippled, Liu Hong’s teacher had entered seclusion, and two others were in the heavens battlefield.

Of those in the academy, only Zhou Mingren and three others were available.

And at this moment, all four were present.

Including Zheng Hong’s teacher, Elder Sun.

Zheng Hong was also there because he was Zheng Yuming’s grandson.

Zheng Hong was very calm!

Even when Zheng Yuming was crippled, he didn’t say a word. As a mere Nourishing Nature student, what could he do when the academy head personally dealt with his grandfather?

At this moment, Zheng Hong remained calm and silent.

Silently pouring tea and serving water for the four elders, showing no unusual behavior.

The four elders also drank their tea in silence.

After a moment, Elder Sun spoke, “How is Yuming’s condition?”

“Eight divine runes, seven of which have been crippled, including the main divine rune! Only one dragon clan divine rune remains.”

Zhou Mingren said softly.

As for the physical body, it was not too important for a civilization master. It would only take a little essence blood to rebuild it.

Anyway, they didn’t follow the path of the physical body, so a weaker physical body was not a big deal.

“Seven divine runes crippled, even the main divine rune…”

An old woman with white hair said in a low voice. If the main divine rune was not crippled, it wouldn’t be so serious for a Mountain Sea Realm expert.

But if even the main divine rune was crippled, it would be really serious!

The old woman said in a low voice, “Why was Academy Head Wan so decisive this time! Yuming didn’t attack, of course, his aura erupted, which was indeed a bit…”

The old woman didn’t know what to say.

Student fights happened every year.

For them, the Pavilion Elders, it was all a small matter.

Zheng Yuming was fine, but he had to erupt with his aura. The scene at that time made it hard not to have associations.

Zhou Mingren said calmly, “It may have been calculated by Chen Yong. Yuming is not yet conscious. I suspect that Chen Yong deliberately stimulated him in secret. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Wan Tiansheng is giving us a lesson!”

“Chen Yong?”

Speaking of Chen Yong, the others frowned again.

Elder Sun hesitated, “Chen Yong wouldn’t go that far…”

“It’s hard to say! Yuming wants to dominate the Library Pavilion, do you really think Chen Yong doesn’t care?”

Zhou Mingren said lightly, “Chen Yong has been under Hong Tan’s tutelage for 40 years. He has been staying in the Library Pavilion all these years, without moving. Have you forgotten that this guy was not a good person back then? The students who were expelled from the Multi-Divine Literature faction were all driven out by him! Otherwise, with Hong Tan’s personality, he might not have expelled them!”

The Multi-Divine Literature faction had not stopped recruiting people in recent years.

It’s just that some people couldn’t bear to outline 10 divine runes in the Nourishing Nature stage and ascended to the sky without forming divine rune combat skills, so they were expelled. Chen Yong handled all of this.

As for Hong Tan, he didn’t care much about these things.

After saying a few words, Zhou Mingren waved his hand and said, “Let’s discuss this matter later! Now Yuming is going to the heavens battlefield. He is being punished, so he will definitely appear in the vanguard camp. Even if the war is not as intense as before, he will participate in the war. If the divine runes are not restored, he is dead!”

“Old Zhou, what do you mean?”

The others looked at Zhou Mingren. Zheng Yuming was his disciple and the leader of their faction. They really couldn’t let him go to his death.

Seeing that Zhou Mingren didn’t speak, Elder Sun thought for a while and said, “Old Fang and Old Ma are both in the heavens battlefield. See if we can ask them for a favor and send Yuming to their side.”

Zhou Mingren said calmly, “Even if he is sent there, they may not have time to take care of Yuming. His injuries are so serious that he will die if he doesn’t recover a certain amount of strength! Wan Tiansheng wants to force Yuming to death…”

The others remained silent.

Zhou Mingren continued, “So I have decided to replace Yuming with a main divine rune!”

“Replace the divine rune?”

The others looked at him in surprise. The old woman said in surprise, “It can’t be replaced, the divine rune matching rate is shockingly low!”

“Those in the academy won’t work.”

Zhou Mingren said in a low voice, “Or rather, over the years, only 11 divine runes have a chance of being replaced!”

11 photos!

As soon as these words came out, the others changed color.

They knew what Zhou Mingren was talking about.

The Multi-Divine Literature faction experts who participated in that battle in the past!

A total of 11 divine runes were passed down. Liu Wenyan inherited the divine rune of the fifth generation academy head. Others such as Xia Yunqi, Zhao Mingyue, and Hu Ping inherited the divine runes of the Sun Moon Realm, and the other 7 inherited the divine runes of 7 Mountain Sea Peak experts.

Of the other 7, 6 had already fallen.

Died of old age, illness, or went mad and their will sea collapsed.

Now, 5 of the 11 are still alive.

The 11 were all top geniuses in the past, each with hope of reaching the Mountain Sea and Sun Moon Realms, but now, fifty years have passed, and only these few remain.

The old woman frowned and looked at Zhou Mingren and said, “What do you mean…”

Zhou Mingren said calmly, “In recent years, 6 people have died, and the divine runes have not continued to be passed down! In that case, they must still be in the will sea, unless they have completely collapsed. Otherwise, those divine runes that were passed down in the past will not collapse so easily!”

“Yuming’s previous main divine rune was the ‘Collapse’ divine rune of the God Race, with the characteristics of collapse, collapse, and collapse…”

Zhou Mingren slowly said, “And of the 6 dead people, one inherited the divine rune that is very suitable for Yuming, Zhang Ruoling inherited the ‘Crack’ divine rune in the past!”

“Zhang Ruoling!”

Hearing this name, the faces of several pavilion elders changed slightly.

One of the geniuses who was expelled in the past!

Zhang Ruoling, taught at the 18th Secondary Academy of Great Xia Mansion, died of illness 9 years ago, but in fact, he should have died because his willpower could not bear the pressure.

The others were silent.
After a long silence, Grand Secretary Sun said in a low voice, “Old Zhou, the person is dead, digging up the grave and exhuming the corpse… this is hard to say! If it gets out, do you think you’ll have a good time? The people of the Multiple Divine Script faction aren’t all dead yet! Even if they are all really dead, if you do this, what will the Hall of War Gods and the Realm of Seeking say? Aren’t those Invincibles afraid that one day they will die and have their graves dug up?”

“Not to mention them, what about yourself, would you want such a day?”

This matter is not easy to do.

It’s too taboo!

Who doesn’t have a day to die?

Not everyone is willing to actively pass on their divine scripts. Some people die and are buried somewhere. Do they want to be dug up one day?

Zhou Mingren was silent for a while, then said, “The living are more important than the dead!”

“Old Zhou!”

Grand Secretary Sun said in a deep voice, “Think this over carefully. In my opinion, even going directly to Liu Wenyan and the others is better than this! Liu Wenyan and the others are still alive, at worst you get a reputation for bullying others with power! The reputation is bad, but it’s better than this!”

He’d rather bully the living!

That also has a bad reputation, but it’s better than bullying the dead, it’s too taboo!

Zhou Mingren said in a low voice, “The divine scripts of those few are in the Sun-Moon Realm, which may not be suitable for Yuming! In addition, the one who inherited the Mountain-Sea Realm divine script’s, the divine script is not suitable for Yuming, it is a Demon Race divine script, and the conflict is too great. Zhang Ruoling’s should be the most suitable!”

“But…”

Several people struggled a bit. Doing this would easily ruin their reputation.

Having reached the Mountain-Sea Realm, besides pursuing continued strength, they still care about face and reputation.

If people find out in the future, wouldn’t they be pointed at?

Zhou Mingren knew their concerns and said, “You don’t need to interfere, I’ll do it myself! The bad name, the karma, I’ll bear it all!”

As he spoke, he looked at the others and said, “I’m not looking for you for this! I’m preparing to open some secret realms to strengthen Zheng Hong and the other students who haven’t reached the Soaring realm. Also, Wen Sheng and the others need to improve their strength!”

Open high-end secret realms!

This point was agreed upon as early as a few months ago.

The others didn’t have any objections. Zhou Mingren hesitated and said, “Old Zhao is still in seclusion, it seems he won’t come out this time! So opening the secret realm, I’m afraid Old Zhao won’t contribute effort or resources, Liu Hong’s side…”

He looked at the others and said, “Let him in, lest he doesn’t have a chance to enter this time. I’ll bear half of the required resources, and the rest will be split equally among you, how about it?”

The others considered it for a moment, and another old man who hadn’t spoken much nodded and said, “Okay! Liu Hong is now in the eighth level of the Soaring realm, entering the ninth level, looking forward to the Cloud Crossing realm. If he really enters the Cloud Crossing realm, our strength will also be stronger!”

“Liu Hong’s strength has always been inferior to Bai Feng’s, letting him in is fine.”

Several Grand Secretaries reached a consensus and could let Liu Hong enter.

Zhou Mingren added, “Above the Soaring realm, there are Zhou Pingsheng, Liu Hong, Sun Yucheng, Li Yunmei… 6 people! Below the Soaring realm, 20 people can enter. Also… Wu Yuehua’s side, we need to give her a few spots.”

Hearing this, the others looked helpless.

That shrew, Wu Yuehua!

Last time, she almost made a scene over this matter.

An old woman said angrily, “We’ll give her at most 3 spots, no more!”

Opening a high-end secret realm requires a considerable price.

Otherwise, they would just keep it open all the time.

This opening will cost them at least several years of savings.

Plus the expenses not long ago…

Thinking of this, the old woman said, “How is Pingsheng’s research going? I also looked at the data last time, it feels too bizarre, is it really true?”

It was too outrageous!

At the time, they found it unbelievable!

But later, Su Yu did unleash a talent skill, as shown in the recording.

Zhou Mingren shook his head, “There are no results yet, it’s hard to determine if it’s true or false! If it’s fake, then it means that the Wen Tan Research Center may have deduced the Ironwing Bird’s talent skill operation method, they may have martial skills in this area, Su Yu may have opened those acupoints.”

That was the only way he could judge!

Su Yu might have directly opened those acupoints. He wasn’t there that day, and he didn’t see anything.

Even if he was there, Su Yu had opened more than just one or two acupoints. Who knew what the situation was at the time, whether he opened it himself and unleashed it, or whether it was unleashed by essence blood.

“The Ironwing Bird’s talent skill is not difficult to deduce!”

The old woman said in a deep voice, “Of course, the techniques and martial skills that everyone deduces are not quite the same. But even our academy has tearing techniques. Pingsheng was a little anxious that day, he should have observed more.”

Zhou Mingren shook his head and said, “It’s the same even if he wasn’t anxious, unless Pingsheng’s willpower deeply probed the operation of the acupoints in his body. Once he did that, he would definitely discover it, and there were others present.”

The others nodded silently, that was true. Deeply probing Su Yu, Su Yu wasn’t an idiot, he would definitely find out.

But now… it feels a bit fake.

Especially with Su Yu’s explosive increase in strength, doesn’t opening acupoints cost money?

Doesn’t it require merit points?

Checking Su Yu’s records, it seems he entered the secret realm several times!

Of course, there were only simple entry records, when he came out wasn’t shown.

Without money, how did Su Yu get in?

“Zheng Yunhui… Su Yu…”

The thought arose in the minds of several people that these two kids might have scammed them together!

100,000 merit points!

They’re really bold!

But there’s no way to be sure yet, wait and try for a while longer.

On the side, Zheng Hong, who hadn’t said anything, suddenly said, “Zheng Yunhui and Su Yu aren’t as stiff as they look! Logically speaking, Su Yu’s ‘Heaven Piercing Kill’ has already lost to Zheng Yunhui, but I took a look, Su Yu used Shattered Yuan very skillfully before!”

No need to say too much.

With just one sentence, the faces of several people changed.
“You even lost in ‘Heavenly Execution,’ yet you managed to learn Yuan Shattering, truly a genius, and you’re quite proficient at it. Did you buy another book of will?”

The old woman suddenly looked at him and said, “I heard you lost to him in the divine literature competition before?”

“Yes.”

Zheng Hong apologized, “I lost! He has multiple divine literatures, including two second-tier divine literatures. He has already initially outlined the prototype of a divine literature combat skill. Moreover, he might have learned other methods to enhance willpower, making him very powerful!”

“Techniques to enhance willpower…” Several people exchanged glances. Zhou Mingren said, “It might be the Mind Expansion Technique.”

“Mind Expansion Technique!”

Grand Secretary Sun frowned and said, “That Zhao Li has a terrible temper and doesn’t give face to anyone! I looked for him years ago, wanting to discuss it, but he ignored me. Did he pass it on to Su Yu?”

“Not too clear.”

Zhou Mingren didn’t want to say much either, and now he thought of Zheng Hong, saying, “Your divine literature is still missing one, right?”

“Yes.”

Zheng Hong respectfully said, “Grandmaster, I’m still missing a ‘Forest’ character divine literature.”

“I know. Old Sun, give him more books of will related to that in the future… The original from 50 years ago! Also, Zheng Hong, you will go to the secret realm this time!”

“Thank you, Grandmaster!”

Zheng Hong respectfully replied, and then looked at the several Grand Secretaries, greeting them one by one. Grand Secretary Sun was his teacher, and he nodded without any objections.

“You can leave first!”

After giving Zheng Hong some benefits, Zhou Mingren waved his hand, dismissing him.

After he left, Zhou Mingren suddenly sighed, “Old Sun, give him more guidance. Yu Ming is injured, and this kid… Also, let the younger ones get closer to each other. This time Qi Feng was injured, and I suddenly realized a problem.”

The others looked at him.

Zhou Mingren regretfully said, “They don’t have any fellow disciple affection! Su Yu crippled Qi Feng to avenge Wu Jia! Qi Feng was crippled, and we didn’t say anything. How many of the younger ones are willing to stand up for him?”

Hearing this, several people were silent and embarrassed.

“The single divine literature faction…” Zhou Mingren sighed again, “I originally thought that a little competition would be good. Without competition, how can they become stronger? But as a result of the competition, all the affection is gone, even worse than outsiders!”

None of the others spoke.

Seeing this, Zhou Mingren didn’t say anything more. As for Zheng Hong, he didn’t know what he was thinking.

He was very calm, very composed, and even knew to take advantage of this opportunity to get some benefits for himself. If it was to hold back and seek revenge on Su Yu, that would be fine, but he was afraid that he didn’t take it to heart at all and didn’t care about his own grandfather.

He wasn’t afraid of the people below fighting for power or playing tricks, that was a good thing.

What he feared was… that they truly had no affection left, and it was all about interests.

“You all go back… After you go back, tell the juniors under your charge that Su Yu must continue to be suppressed! Even more harshly than before!”

Zhou Mingren suddenly said sternly, “Having an opponent is good. Without any opponents, the internal strife will kill each other! The stronger Su Yu is, the better, so they have something to strive for, to avoid further internal conflict and becoming a laughingstock!”

Su Yu’s existence was not a big deal to him.

Zheng Yuming suppressed the multi-divine literature faction for personal revenge, while Zhou Mingren did it to make the single divine literature faction more united.

In Zhou Mingren’s view, the multi-divine literature faction not coming forward to compete these years was a bad thing.

Hong Tan, that old ghost… When you punch him, he shrinks back, like punching the air, making people feel frustrated!

Zhou Mingren even suspected that Hong Tan was doing it on purpose?

He acted like a turtle, and as a result, the single divine literature faction started fighting among themselves!

Even they, the Grand Secretaries, were not of one mind, let alone the people below, who were fighting more fiercely than outsiders.

Now that Su Yu had appeared, he thought it was a good thing.

He even hoped that it could last for a while, not collapse so quickly. If Su Yu collapsed, there would still be internal strife.

When Bai Feng was still in the Soaring realm, he would still come forward to compete, so there were geniuses like Liu Hong and Hu Wensheng as assistant teachers. But when Bai Feng also learned to turtle like Hong Tan, the multi-divine literature faction truly became cotton wool.

Just as the others were about to leave, Grand Secretary Sun suddenly turned around and said, “I almost forgot to say, Xia Yuwen is coming back soon! Are we still competing for the library?”

“Compete!”

Zhou Mingren made a final decision, “Of course we have to compete! The top 100 students now have only one task, to snipe Wu Jia. Before the end of the year, we must not let Wu Jia step onto the top 100 list. Not only the top 100 students, but other students as well! Those who haven’t made it to the top 100, keep an eye on Wu Jia!”

Zhou Mingren shouted, “Stand united against the enemy! Let the students focus on Wu Jia and Su Yu. If they can’t defeat these two, what qualifications do they have to engage in internal strife!”

“Understood!”

Grand Secretary Sun nodded, which was a good thing.

Setting a goal for the students was a good thing!

Zhou Mingren thought for a while and added, “Tell them that whoever can defeat Wu Jia once will be rewarded with 100 merit points! Whoever can defeat Su Yu once, I will personally write a book of will as a reward!”

Hearing this, even the Grand Secretaries were surprised.

This was a huge investment!

Zhou Mingren, at the peak of the Mountain and Sea realm, personally writing a book of will, especially for those below the Soaring realm, was extremely rare!

“Alright!”

The others responded again. Su Yu was probably in big trouble this time.

Just as they were about to leave, Zhou Mingren suddenly said, “The same applies to those who are not from the single divine literature faction!”

“…”

The others suddenly turned to look at him!

Zhou Mingren said quietly, “Let the people under your charge know that if they can’t do it, then I will find someone else! Then, let’s see who loses face!”

The others were completely speechless.

With this, Su Yu was in big trouble, but if the students of the single divine literature faction really failed to win the reward and it was taken by others, then it would be embarrassing and they would completely lose face!

Zhou Mingren stopped talking.

The others didn’t ask about the divine literature anymore. They didn’t want to participate in this matter.

Let Zhou Mingren do it himself!

That was his student, not theirs.

Top floor of the Mind Cultivation Pavilion.Wan Tiansheng sat cross-legged on the ground, looking out the window, and suddenly murmured, “Are they going to fight? Good!”

The students want to fight, and the strong want to fight too.

Since they don’t want to go out and fight, then infighting is better than not moving at all.

“Someone!”

After a moment, an old man entered the door, looked at Wan Tiansheng, and said, “Dean!”

“Go tell Wu Yuehua that Zhou Mingren wants to dig up Zhang Ruoling’s grave!”

“Understood!”

“Also… tell Liu Wenyan!”

Wan Tiansheng said lightly, “Even if Wu Yuehua knows, she may not tell him.”

“Understood!”

“Go!”

The old man nodded, turned and went out.

Wan Tiansheng stood up, looked downstairs, and murmured, “Fight! If you don’t fight, you won’t show up. If you don’t show up, who will know… who set up that game back then!”

The multi-divine script lineage needs to stand out.

Fifty years ago, to stop the Fifth Generation from attaining enlightenment, so many people died, and they were all experts from the multi-divine script lineage, almost all of them died.

What a grand scheme!

So many Invincible Realm experts were alive, but they were all blocked. Even Great Xia King was sniped, and it was too late when he arrived.

The scheme was too big!

So big that even the whereabouts of the Human Race Invincible were known.

“Is it you?”

After a murmur, Wan Tiansheng looked up at the sky. In that picture, whose hand was behind?

What exactly is the Seeker Realm doing?

Over the years, is there really no clue at all?

Or… has the Seeker Realm been infiltrated?

With a long sigh, it’s just one of a thousand possibilities, not necessarily true, maybe… I’m just overthinking it.

“Liu Wenyan… Xia Yunqi…”

After muttering, he shook his head, sat down, and continued to cultivate cross-legged.

Let everyone who should come out come out!

If you keep hiding, the multi-divine script lineage won’t even make a sound, who will care about you!

At the same time.

The news spread!

Whoever defeats Su Yu will be rewarded with a peak Sea Realm will-writing!

As soon as the news came out, the entire academy was shaken.

A will-writing written by a peak Sea Realm expert should be worth two or three thousand merits, right?

The key is that even if you have merits, you may not be able to buy it!

Moreover, this time there are no restrictions, what kind of technique, what kind of type, maybe… you can exchange it for a will-writing of “Ten Thousand Writings Scripture”!

Then you’d be rich!

At this moment, even the students who were about to soar into the sky were shaken.

They were about to soar into the sky and were about to learn the “Ten Thousand Writings Scripture”. It was too difficult to explore on their own!

Su Yu!

As long as you defeat Su Yu, you can get this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it’s too precious!

Ranked 71st!

At this moment, the students ranked 80th to 72nd were a little excited.

Not only that!

Even some students ranked higher were considering one thing, whether to cooperate with a few students ranked lower, for example, to take down their rankings!

In this way, challenging Su Yu would be a matter of course!

Overnight, Su Yu became completely popular.

He became a celebrity in the academy!

His fame was even no less than Zhan Hai, who was ranked first!

This news was spreading rapidly, and for a time, even people outside the academy heard about it.

Su Yu of Great Xia Civilization Academy!

The most monstrous student of this year’s freshmen, overpowering the descendants of the Wan, Xia, Hu, and Zhao families.

Defeating Su Yu became the dream of many people at this moment.

Defeating him would give you a will-writing, even if you can’t use it yourself, you can sell it for several thousand merits. For students, several thousand merits… may be a lifetime matter!

At this moment, Su Yu was still immersed in the magic of the research field, completely forgetting that there were many troubles waiting for him outside.
