The Chaos Dragon Prince -
Chapter 464 Straightforward Maiden
The mental pressure Cain and Amber naturally exuded was just too extreme. Ren Bao, Fan Fu, and Jin Ya didn't even realize that they were taking slow steps back. It was only after a few steps did they stop, a sense of trepidation flashing in their eyes.
Quietly, they simultaneously muttered, "Emperor Tier geniuses Lee and Xun..."
A midst of fighting spirit, respect, and slight reverence swirled in not only the Divine Star geniuses' eyes, but several other more courageous young geniuses.
Everyone there simply knew they were inferior to Lee and possibly Xun. Du Hu's duel was the harsh truth everyone could only accept.
But even so, the more aspiring youths, especially the Divine Star geniuses with wild ambition, at least wanted to taste the power of Emperor Tier geniuses.
For a brief second, Cain and Amber paid zero attention to the other youths. Their attention was fully enraptured by the mysterious presence exuding from that ancient tower.
Because their attainments in the source paths are far superior to everyone else, Cain's and Amber's senses were distinctly more sensitive to higher energy principles.
As they gazed into the ancient temple, Amber transmitted over to Cain, 'Say, did really need to make an entrance like that? Now we're just being dramatic without even trying.'
'Well, what can you do? Our cultivation mastery is too deep compared to everyone else.' Cain mentally shrugged.
As he continued to obverse the ancient tower, his eyes flashed as if he was coming to some sort of realization. 'The sensations of Laws truly are amazingly breathtaking. The Zhou Manor already feels inferior, much less my Imperial Family full of Divine Rulers. So this is this separation of Holy Lands and everyone else.'
It was hard for Cain to make out any specific Law Source within sensations the ancient tower exuded. Everything and nothing felt like it permeated the ancient tower's sensations.
The higher the mountain is, the more Cain and Amber could feel their horizon broadens. Facing just the faint might of an Holy Land made them realize how small they were currently small and what they were going to look forward to in the future.
Seconds later, the duo shook their heads. Their attention wrapped around back to their fellow challengers.
Amber didn't have any expression when gazing over everyone, while Cain had a seemingly uncaring expression. He swept past the Divine Star geniuses, but what he detected from them did cause a mild amount of curiosity.
Quickly transmitting to Amber, Cain told her, 'Would you look at this? My Chaos sense had just detected that those three have energy source sensations similar to what he got for Zhou Ping during our first go at the Lake of Stars. They have perfectly fused it into their Inner World and have quite the control over their energy source.'
'You got all of that from just your Chaos sense?' Amber exclaimed, far more surprised at Cain's precise detection abilities.
Still, she mentally shrugged and said, 'Eh, I'll say they have some potential. Their Divine Auras are dense and have some faint principles of complexity. Not expecting much else.'
'But it's enough for some fresh allies in this Holy Land. At the very least, that serious-looking girl seems to have a great heart for Martial cultivation. If we can't get any allies, still no harm to us.' Cain's tone was very casual.
But the importance of allies shouldn't be underestimated. The duo themselves experienced the strength of connections. Much less Jiang Ling, without even Zhou Ping, the duo knew they would have a rough time surviving Sky Bless City.
Even weaker allies with decent enough martial potential have considerable value. At the very least, when the opposing party is showing genuine respect, Cain wouldn't reject a smiling face.
With his mind made up, the duo landed just a few meters away from the Divine Star geniuses.
Neither Ren Bao nor Fan Fu step forward as a contemplative light flashed across their eyes.
Amber's expression remained indifferent while Cain maintain a faint smile. He was about to speak when, out of everyone's expectation, Jin Ya suddenly step forward.
Her steps were bold and uncaring as she stared directly into Cain's black eyes that could drown out a room full of light.
"Sir Lee. Cutting straight to the point, your cultivation mastery is far beyond anyone of us. It would be an honor to exchange pointers with you!" Her tone was unwavering and her gaze held nothing but respect.
The other geniuses were slightly startled. Whatever convoluted thought they had in mind had completely stopped.
Jin Ya went right for the head without any style or tactic!
All geniuses here believe in the importance of acting with tact and a sense of elegance. After all, it's only befitting of Divine Realm cultivators to naturally ease into issues.
The higher one's cultivation becomes, the stronger belief it is to always act with composure and the befitting nobility of a Divine being.
Even in fights or death matches, most human Martial cultivators will display a degree of elegance that can stun the heavens themselves.
Only ferocious geniuses like Cain wouldn't give a damn about any value of elegance and do all of his actions in a simple, straightforward style.
And it appears this Jin Ya operated on a similar wavelength.
The typical standards of God Galaxy society would expect Jin Ya to have a natural refined elegance higher than the average genius.
But Jin Ya didn't even bother with small talk, directly stating her intentions as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
'Hmph. Given their cold and standoffish reputation, I'm really waiting to see how you shot yourself in the foot this time, Jin Ya.' Ren Bao smirked in amusement, eagerly awaiting a good show.
'Like I always say, zero sense of elegance.' Fan Fu internally jeered, his eyes also flashing with amusement.
But instead of any disdain, taunts, or plain ignoring, Cain smilingly nodded at Jin Ya. The gaze he gave Jin Ya made her straighten up even more.
Even though his eyes roamed her body, it wasn't out of lust or appreciating beauty, but a rather simple curiosity of her cultivation.
It was a strange feeling. One that faintly surprised Jin Ya. But it felt like she wasn't getting looked on by another genius of this generation, but by one of her family Elders.
Cain evenly said, "Sounds interesting. We'll consider it if you can pass this part of the exam quickly."
"Got it. Any tips for passing?" Jin Ya spoke without a hint of embarrassment or shame.
'Are you seriously this ballsy?!' Ren Bao and Fan Fu roared in their minds.
Everyone already knows that Cain has special connections with an insider of a Holy Land. Directly asking for advice already reveals your intentions and asking to be in debt of a favor!
For sure, no genius here had any courage to attempt this.
Yet Jin Ya simply spoke her mind, uncaring of what negative adverse effect it could possibly have.
Once again, Cain didn't have a single problem as he shrugged, saying, "It's simple, really. Just rely on your Spiritual Sea perception abilities and nothing else. It's a test of Law and Divine Essence mastery. There's most likely going to be some kind of force that will suppress every one of us. And to get by this force and to that tower will require us to use only our comprehension of our Laws to manipulate our way through this force. Think of it as trying to survive within a wild, chaotic hurricane with only your wits about you."
Though every youth here had their own sense of pride and confidence, they still took in every word that Cain spoke.
He made it seem so causal, but many other average geniuses felt slight despair.
After all, they weren't freaks like Cain with master-level attainments while in the Great Divine Sea realm.
Some haven't even surpassed the Advanced level!
Just how could they possibly rely only on their Law comprehension to surpass a test like this?
Both Ren Bao and Fan Fu felt considerably more confident than others. They know their own perception abilities surpass those of the Divine Star realm.
But even so, for a high-tier Holy Land like Cloudsea, the force they would need to get through certainly won't be light at all.
Only Jin Ya carried a calm expression. Her brows twisted together as her thoughts flew by for a few seconds before slowly nodding.
A small smile adorned her beautiful lips as she said, "I have to thank Martial Brother Lee for the advice."
Without stopping, she even turned to Amber, who still hasn't changed her bored expression. Though, when Jin Ya did focus her gaze on her, Amber just slightly curled her brows.
"And I have to thank Martial Sister Xun too. I hope we can also exchange pointers in Spirit energy!" Jin Ya concluded with a radiant, entirely unbothered by Amber's lack of response.
In that moment, as Cain was going to reply, Amber suddenly transmitted to him, 'She's certainly a straightforward one, huh? No hesitation at all with the titles.'
'Eh. I can just tell she has a greatly firm Martial Heart. Much better than the likes we experienced. She just wants to pour her all into martial cultivation.' Cain mentally shrugged.
Unlike Amber or Kali, he never really had a problem if people want to form connections. It was just that his own fascination with cultivation took up most of his time if he ever wanted to socialize with someone else.
Blinking after a split moment, Cain calmly nodded to Jin Ya. "Well then, I wish you the best of luck, Jin Ya."
"All the same to you, Martial Brother Lee."
Promptly after speaking, Jin Ya went back to her own spot and closed her eyes in deep pondering. A slight ripple of Law sensation could be felt around her.
Without any hesitation, she truly went into a small cultivation state just from the small bit of advice from Cain.
Unknowingly, Ren Bao and Fan Fu's eyes lit up in envy.
