153: Chapter 150 Fate! Flame Lord

Ye Yungui waved his hand toward the Void Realm, and four light screen projections appeared before Fang Yu, each containing the information of a corresponding Sky-Patrol Martial Artist.

"Take a look first." Ye Yungui pointed at the light screens and said, "See if you like any of these four teachers. You can also ask me if there is any information you don't understand."

Fang Yu immediately began to check them.

"Liu Jin, male, citizen of the Xia Country, First-Class Sky-Patrol Envoy of Xinghe Group, awakened the Upper Astral Constellation 'Heavenly Fire Thorn Vine', mastered a trace of the mystery of the Source Intent of Fire…"

"Zhu Lingxuan, female, citizen of the Xia Country, First-Class Sky-Patrol Envoy of Xinghe Group, awakened the Intermediate Astral Constellation 'Red-Scaled Snake', mastered a trace of the mystery of the Source Intent of Fire… There are three Sky-Patrol Martial Artists and thirteen top Earth Martial Artists under her tutelage…"

"Dirk Cost, male… awakened the Upper Astral Constellation 'Sun-Swallowing Python', mastered a trace of the mystery of the Source Intent of Fire…"

"Ignatius Phoenix… awakened the Intermediate Astral Constellation 'Fire-Feathered Pheasant', mastered a trace of the mystery of the Source Intent of Fire… There is one Sky-Patrol Martial Artist under his tutelage…"

Fang Yu looked very carefully.

These four were all First-Class Sky-Patrol Martial Artists of Xinghe Group, and their awakened Star Phases varied in strength—two were Upper Astral Constellations, and two were Intermediate Astral Constellations. From this, it could also be seen that a stronger Star Phase was more conducive to reaching a higher Realm, but what Realm a Martial Artist could ultimately reach was not entirely determined by the Star Phase.

The Star Phase would raise the lower limit.

And the common point among these four Sky-Patrol Martial Artists was that they had all mastered a trace of the mystery of the Source Intent of Fire.

"Inspector Ye." Fang Yu couldn't help asking, "What does this Source Intent of Fire mean?"

Fang Yu had never heard of it before.

"This counts as a secret, but since your skill has reached Outer Scenery, it's nothing to reveal some of it to you." Ye Yungui smiled and said, "In your university courses, things like Inner Scenery and Outer Scenery are mentioned, right?"

Fang Yu couldn't help nodding.

Even when he was at Wuling City Martial Arts College, the courses did not explain the specific divisions and cultivation methods of Inner Scenery and Outer Scenery in detail… but the most basic concepts were always taught.

Back in middle school, he had already heard of 'Unity of Heaven and Man'.

"Human effort is limited, while the power of heaven and earth is infinite." Ye Yungui said indifferently, "From Elementary Martial Artists to Advanced Martial Artists, the focus is on tapping into the body's potential… In the Earth Martial Artist stage, it begins to emphasize going from the inside out, stressing Qi Perception, utilizing the Terrain Realm, until finally achieving the Unity of Heaven and Man." Fang Yu listened attentively.

"After the Unity of Heaven and Man."

"When a Martial Artist steps into the Sky-Patrol Realm, and after their strength becomes stronger, their Mental Energy will also soar, enabling them to perceive the deeper operating rules of the operation of the entire world and even the Universe… This is Source Intent." Ye Yungui said.

"Source Intent implies the mystery of the source."

"Mastering Source Intent allows one to mobilize even more majestic power of heaven and earth, while further transforming one's own inner self, making oneself stronger and stronger." Ye Yungui said with emotion.

Fang Yu held his breath.

Long ago, he had heard that there was an even higher Realm above the Unity of Heaven and Man.

So it was called 'Source Intent'.

"However, truly mastering Source Intent is extremely difficult."

"It is almost impossible for Sky-Patrol Martial Artists to accomplish." Ye Yungui said, "Being able to comprehend a trace of the mystery of Source Intent is already considered formidable, enough to reign supreme among Sky-Patrol Martial Artists, and obtaining the position of a First-Class Sky-Patrol Envoy is very easy."

Fang Yu suddenly understood. So that was how it was.

"Among the four chosen for you, the first two are people of my Xia Country. Among them, Patrol Envoy Zhu Lingxuan is the best at teaching Disciples, having produced several Sky-Patrol Martial Artists under her tutelage. Among her Disciples, only one is a Level 1 Starry Sky Seed, while the others are only Tier 2 Starry Sky Seeds." Ye Yungui said. Fang Yu thought to himself.

Being able to teach a Tier 2 Starry Sky Seed into a Sky-Patrol Martial Artist was indeed very impressive.

"However, her strength is relatively weak. In terms of true strength, she should belong to the bottom among these four, and her help to you in the future will be relatively small." Ye Yungui added.

Fang Yu was lost in thought.

"Whose strength is the strongest?" Fang Yu asked in return.

"The strongest in strength is Dirk Cost, and his Star Phase also matches yours." Ye Yungui said, "However, up to now, he has never taught a Disciple who became a Sky-Patrol Martial Artist, plus he is not a person of the Xia Country."

Fang Yu nodded slightly.

In his heart, he still leaned more towards choosing a Senior of the Xia Country as a Master.

"Generally speaking."

"The four First-Class Sky-Patrol Envoys each have their own merits." Ye Yungui said, "Have you thought about who to choose?"

"Inspector Ye, didn't you say there were five?" Fang Yu couldn't help asking.

"The fifth one, I will talk about later…" Ye Yungui smiled and said, "You choose one from these four first. Don't think too much, just follow your heart." Fang Yu was slightly stunned, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Senior Zhu Lingxuan, then."

Although Ye Yungui emphasized that the other party had the weakest strength, Fang Yu didn't mind too much. Who he was taking as a Master… someone with strong strength didn't necessarily mean they knew how to teach Disciples well.

"Good."

A trace of an inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of Ye Yungui's mouth: "You chose well."

As he spoke.

"Sister Zhu, come over." Ye Yungui suddenly looked toward an empty side.

Fang Yu was startled in his heart.

Whoosh~

Ten-odd meters away from Fang Yu, at a spot that was just empty, a woman wearing robes intertwined with black and fiery red colors appeared out of thin air. She looked very young, around 25 years old by her face, not particularly pretty, but possessed a unique mature charm, and her entire aura was extremely scorching.

In Fang Yu's perception, she was like a ball of flame, bringing a tremendous sense of oppression.

At this moment, she was looking at Fang Yu with a smile on her face.

"Fang Yu, why haven't you greeted Patrol Envoy Zhu yet?" Ye Yungui said.

"Greetings, Patrol Envoy Zhu." Fang Yu quickly stood up and bowed.

Fang Yu already understood who the other party was; she should be 'Zhu Lingxuan' among the four First-Class Sky-Patrol Envoys.

"Sister Zhu, you watched my explanation process." Ye Yungui smiled and said, "This shows that this little fellow has an affinity with your lineage… Next, you can talk with him."

"Mm, thank you." Zhu Lingxuan nodded, appearing very courteous.

Fang Yu felt increasingly puzzled in his heart.

What on earth was going on?

"Fang Yu, don't be restrained, sit down first. You must have quite a few confusions in your heart." Zhu Lingxuan smiled and said, "I will tell you one by one." Ye Yungui waved his hand, and another chair appeared beside them.

Zhu Lingxuan sat down, and Fang Yu also obediently sat down.

"Senior." Fang Yu felt apprehensive in his heart.

"Don't be nervous. When you just became a Tier 2 Starry Sky Seed before the competition, I already noticed you." Zhu Lingxuan smiled and said, "My original intention was to see your performance in the competition again, but I didn't expect it to be much better than I anticipated."

Fang Yu was secretly startled.

The other party had paid attention to him that early?

"Inspector Ye and I have a good relationship. By the time your third round ended, I had already sent an invitation to him." Zhu Lingxuan continued, "But I didn't expect that after the fifth round ended, he only revealed your information to me—that you actually underwent a secondary Awakening of the Hundred-Aperture Star Sign."

"Such a Star Phase talent, and still of the fire lineage… It is too rare."

"You are not the first person in the Alliance to possess the Hundred-Aperture Star Sign."

"But at least, since records began in the Alliance, among the awakeners of the Upper Astral Constellation of the Sun-Swallowing Python, you should be the first one to awaken a hundred apertures." Zhu Lingxuan said, "Even some Sky-Patrol Martial Artists, through Acquired cultivation and striving to awaken their own star acupoints, have not reached 'a hundred apertures'." Fang Yu was somewhat surprised.

He knew the Hundred-Aperture Star Sign was very rare, but he didn't expect it to be scarce to this extent.

"Senior, can star acupoints be increased acquiredly?" Fang Yu suddenly asked.

"Naturally they can." Zhu Lingxuan smiled and said, "Before becoming an Earth Martial Artist, a Martial Artist hasn't even truly mastered Star Power, so star acupoints cannot be awakened on their own… Starting from the Earth Martial Artist stage, relying on cultivating secret techniques, cultivating Divine Abilities, advanced skills, secret treasures… one can increase the number of star acupoints."

"Therefore, for Sky-Patrol Martial Artists, the number of star acupoints can generally reach over 60."

"However, wanting to awaken 90 is extremely difficult."

"A hundred apertures can be considered a major barrier." Zhu Lingxuan explained patiently.

Fang Yu nodded.

Today, he had indeed learned quite a bit of confidential information, all of which he had never heard of in the past.

"With this Star Phase talent of yours, plus your good skill talent."

"I dare say, even if you Cultivate alone, it probably won't be difficult for you to become a First-Class Sky-Patrol Envoy in the future. Having me teach you… would somewhat waste your talent." Zhu Lingxuan smiled and said, "Therefore, I reported this to my Master."

Fang Yu was startled.

Fang Yu subconsciously looked at Ye Yungui.

"Patrol Envoy Zhu's Master is named Qin Tuo." Ye Yungui said softly, "You should have heard of this name."

Boom!

Fang Yu's brain exploded.

As expected!

Qin Tuo!!

This was a Starry Sky Martial Artist of immense fame, and also the third recorded Starry Sky Martial Artist of the Xia Country, revered by countless Martial Artists as the 'Flame Monarch'. What he excelled in was the path of fire.

In various official textbooks of the Xia Country, his appearance frequency was even higher than Zhang Zhenyue's, because he had too many combat records. According to what Fang Yu learned in the college textbooks, he had fought with Starry Sky Martial Artists of the Primal Star and alien stars several times, staining the long sky with blood… In many rumors on the internet, this was a Starry Sky Martial Artist with an extremely fiery personality.

Just moments ago, after Zhu Lingxuan finished speaking, Fang Yu had already thought of this super existence in his heart.

After all, combining Zhu Lingxuan's words, her Master should be a Starry Sky Martial Artist, and should also belong to the fire lineage… with a high probability of being a person of the Xia Country. How many public Starry Sky Martial Artists were there in the Xia Country in total?

"Senior Flame Monarch is willing to take me as a Disciple?" Fang Yu couldn't help asking.

Taking a Starry Sky Martial Artist as a Master?

Fang Yu had never thought of this before.

"I mentioned it to Master, and Master said to look at fate." Zhu Lingxuan smiled and said, "Therefore, there was the choice just now… According to Master's meaning, if you chose other Sky-Patrol Martial Artists, it would mean that you have no affinity with our lineage."

"Of course, the strength of the other few Sky-Patrol Martial Artists is indeed stronger than mine. If you enter their sects and become a Personal Disciple, you will also receive good cultivation." Zhu Lingxuan said.

Fang Yu was secretly startled.

At this moment, Fang Yu completely understood the reason for Ye Yungui's series of actions just now.

"Patrol Envoy Zhu, what about now?" Fang Yu couldn't help asking.

"If there are no accidents, you are qualified to become Master's Named Disciple, and upon becoming an Earth Martial Artist, you can be promoted to an Inner Sect Disciple." Zhu Lingxuan smiled and said, "As for whether you can become a Personal Disciple… you will need to go and meet Master, and it depends on your fortune."

"Therefore, now we must ask for your opinion."

"Are you willing to enter under my Master's sect? If you are unwilling, Master will not force you."
