Chapter 1954: Ji Wudao Is Speechless! Everyone Gets Jealous! A Heavy Counterattack!

"What’s going on with them?"

Ji Wudao walked out of the Scripture Pavilion, seeing the crowd quiet down all of a sudden, he felt a bit uneasy and asked Mu Jinyu.

He felt something was off. These people didn’t know his power, and now that he appeared younger, they couldn’t possibly change their behavior because of him.

Could it be because of Mu Jinyu? But Mu Jinyu’s situation at Dongyue Mansion should be quite dire. People are probably calling for his downfall, how could he have such prestige?

After all, when Ji Wudao left that void and returned to the Scripture Pavilion, the deadly ghost mist in his body had not fully activated, and he hadn’t lost consciousness right away. Upon entering the Scripture Pavilion, he heard countless people cursing Mu Jinyu.

How did the situation change in such a short period?

Mu Jinyu transmitted to Ji Wudao, "It’s because their leader was frightened by someone, so that’s why they’re like this."

As he spoke, he pointed towards Ye Ruofeng, who was still kneeling in front.

"Uh... so that’s what happened..."

Ji Wudao understood the reason and his expression became a bit odd.

He wasn’t inclined to intervene, nor did he intend to have Mu Jinyu release Ye Ruofeng.

Subsequently, the two of them left the plaza and went to another area for cultivation rooms!

Once Mu Jinyu and Ji Wudao departed.

The plaza, quiet enough to hear a pin drop, finally collectively breathed a sigh of relief, and then people began to speak.

"That guy has finally left!"

"Damn, facing him felt scarier than dealing with the previous Institute Head!"

"Did any of you sense it? Mu Jinyu’s presence seemed stronger than when he first entered the Scripture Pavilion?"

"Damn, it seems there’s a bit of truth to that! Could it be that he had another cultivation breakthrough?"

"Then what is his cultivation level now?"

"Don’t know, it seems like it’s still at the Void Breaking Realm; only the senior students could discern it slightly..."

As these people discussed, they turned to the few senior students who hadn’t left yet, to inquire.

The expressions of those senior students appeared somewhat complicated. Faced with the crowd’s inquiries, they sighed and responded:

"You weren’t mistaken, he indeed had another breakthrough!"

"Yes, just a moment ago, he was within the Late Broken Void Realm Stage, but now he’s not far from the Peak of Void Breaking Realm."

"It seems he might already be at the Peak of Void Breaking Realm?"

"That’s uncertain, it’s close to this, anyway!"

"..."

Upon hearing the senior students’ remarks, the group of students was greatly shocked.

They hadn’t expected Mu Jinyu to have reached the Peak of Void Breaking Realm so soon?

There were still some people deeply dissatisfied with Mu Jinyu, who sneered, "So what? I remember Senior Lu and Senior Ning, they’re already at the Life and Death Realm!"

"Yes, they have reached the Life and Death Realm long before; Senior Lu and the others are even in the Mid Stage of Life and Death Realm!"

"Compared to them, Mu Jinyu is still far behind!"

"..."

Upon hearing these words, several senior students couldn’t help but chuckle and shook their heads, "Truly, ignorance is fearless!"

"Indeed, how naive these people are!"

These students, hearing the mockery from the senior students, felt resentful yet dared not confront them openly!

The senior students then continued:

"You all are absurd, only focusing on Mu Jinyu nearly reaching the Peak of Void Breaking Realm, while thinking Lu Kaige and Ning Ruofan are stronger because they are at the Life and Death Realm? Ridiculous..."

"Not to mention that Lu Kaige and the others already lost to Mu Jinyu, the disparity in their cultivation levels means nothing now!"

"More importantly, do you know how old Mu Jinyu is, compared to Lu Kaige and Ning Ruofan?"

"Mu Jinyu’s bone age test shows he’s not even twenty years old!!"

Upon hearing this, all the students present, including those deeply dissatisfied with Mu Jinyu, became dazed as if losing their souls!

Right, Mu Jinyu is only about twenty years old!

Meanwhile, Lu Kaige and the others, though their exact ages weren’t certain, are certainly in their fifties or sixties!

How could they stack up to Mu Jinyu?

By the time Mu Jinyu reaches their age, wouldn’t he be at least in the Mid Stage of Life and Death Realm?

What cultivation level were they at when they were Mu Jinyu’s age?

Before they could continue pondering their life choices, the senior students continued ruthlessly exposing that terrifying fact!

"Mu Jinyu is only around twenty, yet he’s already at the Peak of Void Breaking Realm, while Lu Kaige and the others are in their fifties or sixties now. On what basis are they proud of their Life and Death Realm cultivation and feel that they’re stronger than Mu Jinyu?"

"That’s right, in terms of strength, they’re weaker than Mu Jinyu; in terms of potential, Mu Jinyu surpasses them!"

Upon hearing this, someone couldn’t help but argue, "That might not be the case, right? Mu Jinyu is following the Humanity Path. This path typically ends at the Void Breaking Realm; he might not be able to break through to the Life and Death Realm!"

Several senior students glanced at that person, shaking their heads, "He can certainly reach the Life and Death Realm; there’s no doubt about that. Also, do you think that by following the Foreign Race Bloodline Cultivation Path, your path after reaching the Life and Death Realm will be smooth?"

"In reality, it’s just potato-potato!"

"If Mu Jinyu can find a way to continue borrowing from the Humanity Path, his potential would be far greater than any of ours!"

"..."

Saying this, another senior student sighed and reminded, "Indeed, Mu Jinyu’s potential is far greater than ours! Have you forgotten what his cultivation level was when he first joined Dongyue Mansion a few months ago?"

The crowd’s expression changed drastically.

Everyone knew that when Mu Jinyu first joined Dongyue Mansion, his cultivation level was only at the First Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm!

And in a few months, when he returned to Dongyue Mansion, his cultivation had recovered to the Peak Unity Realm Stage!

"Wasn’t it said he self-severed his bloodline, allowing him to break through from the Divine Transformation Realm to the Peak Unity Realm Stage so quickly?"

"Yeah! He originally had the Peak Unity Realm’s cultivation; it’s not that impressive!"

"..."

They argued half-heartedly.

The senior student sneered, "It’s not impressive?"

"Fine, let’s say it’s not impressive!"

"But have you forgotten? During the selection tournament, what was his cultivation level?"

The crowd stood frozen, cold sweat poured from their foreheads.

"At that time, his cultivation was already at the Fourth Layer of the Void Breaking Realm!"

"He returned to Dongyue Mansion shortly thereafter and elevated his cultivation from the Unity Realm level to the Middle Stage of Void Breaking Realm, isn’t that noteworthy?"

"Alright! Even if you think that’s not impressive, then how much time has passed since he became a senior student? Not even seven days, and he’s raised his cultivation to the seventh or eighth level of the Void Breaking Realm!"

"And just after stepping into the Scripture Pavilion, he raised his cultivation close to the Peak of Void Breaking Realm. Is that still not impressive?"

Upon hearing the senior student’s words, the people who originally ignored this issue instinctively now felt their scalps tingle, chills course through them!

This is truly terrifying!

The senior student continued, "I know, you all probably think, perhaps his previous cultivation level wasn’t just the Peak Unity Realm Stage but could have been at the Peak of Void Breaking Realm, or even higher, allowing him to break through so quickly!"

"But even if that’s the case, doesn’t that mean he reached an unimaginable cultivation level before turning twenty?"
