Chapter 60: The Tree of Origin! Selection Competition Approaches!
This tree with a golden trunk and colorful branches is rooted in the void space, but its height is less than a meter.
However, with the continuous influx of Dou Qi from outside the void space, this small tree is also growing slowly and steadily.
At first sight of this tree, Xiao Ze already knew that it was the source of his power!
The trunk represents the feedback from Xiao Xun'er, pure gold in color, symbolizing nobility and mystery.
The colorful branches extending out represent the feedback from Little Fairy Doctor.
The length of the colorful branches extended even longer than the trunk due to the Hundredfold Hardship Poison.
As Xiao Ze approached this tree of origin, under the reflection of the golden light, he suddenly felt as if his soul was sublimating!
The strength of his soul increased substantially!
The enhancement effect of this golden light far exceeded Xiao Ze's imagination!
At the same time, the golden light penetrated the void space, illuminating Xiao Ze's entire body.
Everything within his meridians, flesh, and bones underwent transformation under the illumination of the golden light.
The strengthening effect of the golden light far surpassed the pale blue light emitted by the Dou Crystal rotating in the Grand Master stage!
Under the illumination of this golden light, both Xiao Ze's body and soul seemed to have sublimated!
Every cell in his body cheered for the illumination of the golden light!
Even the meridians that carried the surging Dou Qi no longer ached, emitting a faint golden luster.
As time passed, the golden tree also grew to over a meter tall, and the radiant golden light gradually converged.
Only then did Xiao Ze come to his senses from this sublimated ecstasy.
"Whew... what an astonishing enhancement!"
Xiao Ze looked at the golden tree in the void space.
Originally, he was worried that too much feedback power would cause conflicts within his body.
But now, the appearance of this golden tree dispelled his concerns!
With Xiao Xun'er's feedback power as the main trunk and other subsidiary feedback powers as branches, it constituted his own tree of origin power!
As long as this tree existed, the power would be in an orderly manner!
Xiao Ze looked at the golden tree with great satisfaction.
The increase in the height of the golden tree meant an improvement in his cultivation!
The star-level division before this was actually quite vague.
Just like in the traditional system, where a Dou Spirit would generate a Dou Crystal within their body.
Each retraction of the nine spikes represented an increase in one star at the Dou Spirit level.
Xiao Ze's mind withdrew from the void space and inwardly inspected his body.
He found that his entire body had undergone a qualitative change, shining brightly everywhere, as if coated with a faint golden glow.
"I wonder if this enhancement can rival the magnitude of Xiao Yan's improvement from using the Earth Core Nurturing Milk?"
The thought flashed through his mind, and Xiao Ze slowly opened his eyes.
Xiao Xun'er and Little Fairy Doctor, who had been waiting on the shore for two days and one night, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xiao Ze awake.
"Brother Xiao Ze, you finally woke up. This breakthrough of yours took an unusually long time."
Xiao Xun'er smiled with relief.
"How long did I take to break through?"
Xiao Ze leaped back to the shore and patted the heads of the two.
"Two days and one night, longer than your previous breakthrough to a higher realm!"
Xiao Xun'er said seriously.
"Don't worry, I've successfully broken through to the Dou Spirit realm. It's a crucial step forward, and the road ahead should be smooth."
Xiao Ze's words made Xiao Xun'er slightly puzzled.
Breaking through to the Dou Spirit realm was not considered a crucial cultivation milestone. Why did Brother Xiao Ze attach so much importance to it?
But seeing that Xiao Ze had no intention of explaining further, Xiao Xun'er didn't inquire further.
At this time, Little Fairy Doctor took out a piece of paper and handed it to Xiao Ze.
"This is a message from Teacher Ruolin sent by messenger bird. The registration stage for the Inner Academy selection competition has begun. She's asking for your opinion."
Xiao Ze took it and glanced at it, then looked at Xiao Xun'er and Little Fairy Doctor.
After months of cultivation, they had both reached the advanced Dou Master stage.
Entering the Inner Academy should be well within their capabilities.
After all, even among the top fifty in the Inner Academy selection competition, not everyone could reach the Grand Master stage.
Only the top-ranking students had a chance to reach the Grand Master stage.
The quality of the students in Xiao Yan's year was considered very high.
"Let's participate. Please ask Teacher Ruolin to register all three of us."
"As long as you two don't encounter me in the elimination stage, you should both be able to enter the top fifty."
Xiao Ze decided immediately, and Xiao Xun'er and Little Fairy Doctor had no objections.
In the following days, they continued to devote themselves to cultivation.
Xiao Ze consolidated his Dou Spirit realm and familiarized himself with his powers.
The atmosphere in the entire Outer Academy also began to heat up, with the topic of discussion among students being the Inner Academy selection competition.
The Inner Academy was the core of the Canaan Academy.
Countless Outer Academy students all aimed to enter the Inner Academy.
Although they didn't understand much about the Inner Academy, the returning students from the Inner Academy vacation had all experienced substantial growth in strength!
This made Outer Academy students curious about the Inner Academy and eager to enter.
Even those who usually worked hard in cultivation were now rubbing their hands in preparation to show off in the Inner Academy selection competition.
This was a tournament at the academy level. As long as they could stand out, they would receive attention from countless people!
Among them, the most discussed figures among Outer Academy students were only three!
They were the top three from the last Beast Hunt Competition: Xiao Ze, Han Yue, and Bai Cheng.
Among them, Xiao Ze received the highest level of discussion.
Although Xiao Ze rarely appeared in front of people after the Beast Hunt Competition, he was still highly regarded by many students.
Countless students regarded him as their idol and admired him.
Even in Canaan City outside of Canaan Academy, the grand event of the Outer Academy attracted many people's attention. Many planned to come and watch.
They discovered that a certain place attracted the attention of most Canaan Academy students.
It was the base of a class, where three figures were particularly eye-catching.
Two cute girls exuded charm, while two girls surrounded a young man.
The young man wore a loose and comfortable white robe, standing quietly in place, ignoring the countless gazes, chatting with the two girls.
Those who came from Canaan City asked the Canaan Academy students and learned that these were the influential figures of the academy, Xiao Ze!
He was strong, so strong that many students believed he was the only candidate for the top spot!
This made the outsiders couldn't help but show a strong interest.
They planned to watch carefully during Xiao Ze's competition to see how excellent the pride of Canaan Academy truly was.
Xiao Ze took the schedule that Teacher Ruolin had just brought back, took a quick look, and felt relieved.
The three of them hadn't clashed with each other.
As long as they defeated all obstacles, all three of them could enter the top fifty!
Ding—
A melodious bell rang, announcing that the selection competition for this year's Inner Academy was officially beginning!
