Chapter 364 - 134: Wormhole Jump, Starry Sky Beast

This time, the two men were their guides once again.

"Your progress is fast. You’re already a Level 6 member. Looks like it won’t be long before you surpass me."

The long-haired man in sunglasses approached Chen Yu and remarked.

"Level 6 member?!"

Hearing the long-haired man’s words, Dongfang Yao and Zhuge Qingtian were inwardly shaken.

’Wait... since we last parted, Chen Yu became a Level 6 member?!’

’What kind of major feat did he have to pull off to get promoted so quickly?!’

The two of them stared at Chen Yu, unable to hide the shock in their eyes.

As members of the Extraordinary Alliance themselves, they knew just how difficult it was to raise one’s member status.

Aside from a True God, who could be directly promoted to the highest status, advancing through any other means was incredibly difficult, with each level presenting a huge challenge.

You could only advance by completing the corresponding missions.

And even then, completing a mission didn’t guarantee a promotion.

’Chen Yu seemed to be only a Level 3 member before. To jump to Level 6 in one go... could the higher-ups have given him a cheat?’

’No, that can’t be right. Unless you’re a True God, no one has the authority to grant such an exceptional promotion in one go.’

"It’s only Level 6, not Level 9. It’s nothing special."

Chen Yu said with a nonchalant expression.

The long-haired man in sunglasses: "..."

Zhuge Qingtian: "..."

Dongfang Yao: "..."

’The audacity of this flex is just unreal!’

But thinking about Chen Yu’s power, completing a few high-difficulty missions probably wasn’t a big deal for him.

"Kid... if you want Level 9, you’d have to be a True God," the long-haired man in sunglasses said, looking at him.

Chen Yu nodded. "Yes, I know."

"Just because I can’t now, doesn’t mean I can’t in the future."

’This guy...’

’His confidence is off the charts!’

The long-haired man in sunglasses gave Chen Yu a deep look. ’What a powerful aura!’

’But... considering he was chosen by that senior to participate in the Divine Hall assessment, perhaps it’s not impossible.’

As the group was chatting idly, the voice of the man in the suit rang out.

"Alright, all trainees, form a single line and assemble!"

The man in the suit’s voice echoed across the area, and Chen Yu’s group immediately formed a line.

Twelve people in total.

The other academy directors stood watching from the side.

This was as far as they could escort them; the rest of the journey would be handled by the Alliance.

Sweeping his gaze over the group, the man in the suit looked at them and said, "First, I need to explain the situation. The journey to the Stellar Battlefield will take one month. During the transit, no one is to leave the ship without cause. Space is full of many unforeseen disasters, so it’s best to stay on board. Even if an accident occurs, no one is to leave the ship without my direct order. Understood?"

"Understood!!" ×12.

The man in the suit nodded. "Good. Let’s not waste any more time. We’re departing!"

The words had barely left his mouth when the sealed mountain before them began to tremble, revealing an opening as dark as the Abyss.

A futuristic, silver spaceship flew out from the mountain.

The ship was massive, roughly the same size as the mountain it had just emerged from.

The ship flew out, hovered in mid-air, and its hatch opened.

Then, on the man in the suit’s command, everyone boarded the superluminal spaceship one after another.

The interior of the spaceship was also vast.

It had dedicated seats, a dining area, and even entertainment facilities. Everything was provided.

Once everyone was on board, the man in the suit looked at Chen Yu and the others. "The ship provides 24-hour food and beverage service. If you get tired, you can go to the rest pods. You’re also free to use the entertainment facilities."

Everyone nodded.

’These arrangements are absolutely perfect!’

"Take your seats," the man in the suit said. Everyone sat down, and the chairs automatically conformed to their bodies as safety restraints locked into place.

Although their physical constitutions could withstand the forces of a superluminal ship, the necessary safety features were still in place.

"Wow, these seats are really comfortable!"

The moment they sat down, a feeling of comfort washed over them, as if the chairs were designed to interface directly with the human nervous system.

Sitting in them wasn’t just comfortable; it was incredibly relaxing.

"Prepare for takeoff! The ship is lifting off now!"

The man in the suit was in his seat, his voice reaching everyone’s ears.

RUMBLE—!

The moment he spoke, a powerful, rumbling tremor shook the ship as it shot through the air, heading for the starry sky.

In a single second, it pierced through Ancestor Star’s atmosphere.

Instantly, they were in the vast expanse of space.

Through the ship’s windows, they could clearly see the spectacle of outer space.

Countless meteorites streaked across the starry canvas, plunging into the dark cosmos.

Although he could fly through heaven and earth, this was Chen Yu’s first time experiencing the depths of space like this.

In the deep void, nebulas swirled, blooming with brilliant light.

It was like a celestial painting.

’This ship’s speed is a bit faster than my own limit.’

Chen Yu silently communicated with Sophie. The superluminal ship’s speed reached a staggering 1.5 times the speed of light.

Even at full power, he couldn’t surpass this speed.

’The speed of light is just the starting point. It seems the speed of a True God is likely even faster than I imagined!’

The thought flashed through Chen Yu’s mind.

Reaching the speed of light was nothing remarkable in the vast, boundless universe.

There were far too many things that surpassed the speed of light.

The superluminal ship was covered by an energy field, so sitting inside felt almost like being stationary.

After watching for a while, Chen Yu grew bored.

The starry sky was full of wonder, but after seeing enough of it, it was just... that.

Besides the beautiful nebulas and countless stars and meteorites, there was mostly just endless darkness.

* * *

Time trickled by. Several days passed. In deep space, the superluminal ship continued its journey, maintaining a constant speed of 1.5 times the speed of light.
