When they arrived in the corridor, both of them muttered a few words and decided to bring their teacher over to take a look in the end, in case something happened to Lan Xuanyu.

In just a moment, Mu Zhongtian and Ji Hongbin arrived. At first, they only informed Mu Zhongtian, but Ji Hongbin was with him at that time, waiting for the final results of the qualifier to be out. When they heard that something might be wrong with Lan Xuanyu, Ji Hongbin obviously got anxious too and immediately rushed over.

When they entered the dormitory, Ji Hongbin immediately saw Lan Xuanyu sitting there meditating calmly. He narrowed his eyes and gestured for the others to remain silent. Then, he slowly closed his eyes and silently felt the Soul Power and Spiritual Power fluctuations around Lan Xuanyu.

At that moment, Qian Lei and Liu Feng suddenly felt as if Teacher Ji had disappeared. He was standing there, but it felt as if he had become a statue and didn’t have any life left in him, completely becoming one with the surroundings.

“Unity of Heaven and Man,” Mu Zhongtian muttered to himself. His eyes were filled with envy. What exactly was Teacher Ji’s level of cultivation that allowed him to simply enter the state of Unity of Heaven and Man instantaneously?

After some time, Ji Hongbin opened his eyes and waved to the others as he went outside first. Mu Zhongtian was very excited.

After they went outside, Mu Zhongtian hurriedly probed, “Teacher Ji, how is Xuanyu?”

Ji Hongbin chuckled and said, “Good news, deep meditation. He actually entered the state of deep meditation. This chap isn’t even 12 years old yet, but it seems like the qualifier yesterday stirred him up quite a bit!”

“Deep meditation?” Mu Zhongtian was shocked. He obviously knew what deep meditation was. The state that every Soul Master dreamt of, it was an exceptional case when a Soul Master’s body and mind was completely immersed in meditation and reached his or her optimum state.

Deep meditation not only allowed one’s meditation state to become better, but it also accelerated the increase of Soul Power. Most importantly, with this empty state of mind and body, it would greatly enhance one’s perception and reach a previously unattainable level. It was beneficial for breakthroughs or enhancements.

Mu Zhongtian wasn’t just surprised at this moment, but also slightly jealous—he had never had deep meditation before.

Relatively speaking, the higher the cultivation, the greater the significance of deep meditation and the greater the enhancement. Lan Xuanyu was still young at this time and didn’t have many abilities. But even so, entering deep meditation at this age, there were countless advantages for him, so how could Ji Hongbin not be surprised?

His ability to enter the Unity of Heaven and Man state in an instant was naturally achieved after experiencing deep meditation for the first time, which allowed him to display 100% of his battle power at any time. Moreover, he clearly remembered that one of the original Shrek Academy assessments required students to achieve deep meditation; they had to meditate continuously until they entered deep meditation. Otherwise, they were not allowed to pass, and exceeding the stipulated time was also considered a failure!

For a Soul Master, it would be much easier to enter deep meditation after experiencing it once.

Wait, wait!

All of a sudden, Ji Hongbin seemed to be enlightened. His pupils constricted, and he turned around abruptly as he looked at the dormitory behind him. His expression turned strange, and he mumbled to himself, “So it’s like that. If this is really the case, there’ll be a higher chance!”

Mu Zhongtian looked at him but didn’t really understand, “Teacher Ji, what are you talking about?”

Ji Hongbin said, “I know why he went into deep meditation. It wasn’t only because he was stirred up by the qualifier, but also that his Spiritual Power had reached a breakthrough point. Remember the test previously? A Spiritual Power of 499 points. After reaching this breakthrough point, with the push from this qualifier, Xuanyu began to breakthrough directly.”

Mu Zhongtian was speechless. Breakthrough? He knew very well what it meant to break through a Spiritual Power of 499 points. Spirit Sea realm! His Spiritual Power would enter the Spirit Sea realm. This was a big leap. Wasn’t it necessary to build up for a period of time before there was a possibility of a breakthrough? Was there no bottleneck for this kid?

Breaking through the Spiritual Power level via deep meditation would definitely be a success! Was this luck or capability?

Mu Zhongtian suddenly realized that he didn’t really understand this world anymore, or rather, he didn’t understand the world of geniuses.

“Qian Lei, Liu Feng, neither of you have to attend classes today. Just stay in the dorm and look after Xuanyu. Do not let anyone disturb him until he wakes up. It’s his first time in deep meditation, so it shouldn’t take too long, but the results definitely won’t be small. When he wakes up, get him to tell you guys how he felt; it might be helpful when both of you enter this realm in the future.”

Liu Feng and Qian Lei looked at each other and agreed. “Yes, Teacher Ji.”

There wasn’t much to be jealous about Lan Xuanyu; on the contrary, they couldn’t wait for Lan Xuanyu to become stronger. They were now three people but one body, and would go through thick and thin together. The stronger Lan Xuanyu was, the more effective his enhancement would be towards them.

In fact, they weren’t even sure what type of Soul Master Lan Xuanyu was anymore. They couldn’t say that he was a control-type, as his assisting abilities were very strong. But neither could they say that he was an assist-type, as he could control ice elements himself; he even had some direct combat abilities. The only problem was that his Soul Power was a little low. But even so, Lan Xuanyu was still the number one man in the entire Elite Junior Class—an all-rounder! contemporary romance

Back in the office, Ji Hongbin was very satisfied as he crossed his arms, sat on the chair, and looked at the screen in front of him.

The results of the qualifier would be announced to all of Heaven Luo Planet later. According to past practices, the qualifier was the most intense and had the largest number of eliminations. The qualifier played a major role in deciding whether one could make it to the next round. This was an absolutely comprehensive assessment. Among the tens of thousands of candidates in Heaven Luo Planet, only the first 100 could enter the next round!

Of course, this 100 actually referred to 100 teams of 3 people each, which meant that a total of 300 people could go to the next round.

How many schools were there in Heaven Luo Planet? It had been many years since anyone from Heaven Luo Academy had enrolled in Shrek Academy, which was why the Elite Junior Class was created. There were really high hopes placed on them this year.

But in the earlier qualifier, several teams were instantly dropped from the competition and there was no doubt that they would be eliminated. How could Ji Hongbin not be anxious? Fortunately, there were some students after that who lasted for a longer time. Especially Lan Xuanyu and Lu Qianxun’s teams. He would now see what their final results were.

Also, judging by the qualifier this time, the students’ individual strengths were not bad; it’s just that they were not very good at adapting themselves to changes. The Shrek Academy’s qualifier was simply too comprehensive, and even luck played a part.

“It’s out!” Mu Zhongtian exclaimed urgently, which caused Ji Hongbin to straighten up and his gaze to turn to the screen.

The first row that appeared was the 91st to 100th ranking.

Three names appeared first, followed by the school and score.

Mu Zhongtian saw the familiar names at one glance, “99th place, Jin Xiang, Tang Yuege, and Li Pengbin; Heaven Luo Academy; Total Score: 39.”

“Haha, Jin Xiang’s teams got in. This is great.” Mu Zhongtian was so excited that he nearly jumped from joy. Although they merely entered the qualifier and it wasn’t much, being able to enter the qualifier was quite a feat! This was absolutely great news.

Also, he remembered that Jin Xiang’s team didn’t last for a very long time and there were four other teams that lasted longer than his.
