Chapter 151: Chapter 151: Exchange BattleFive days later, in the early morning. Ling Chen was summoned to the central palace’s council hall. Upon entering the hall, Ling Chen saw the familiar faces of five students. They were Qin Wan Er, Yu Huai, Bai Wangchuan, Gu Lin, and Ye Xun. Besides them, there were two high-ranking officials from the Academy Palace, the Palace Master and Vice Palace Master Wu. Seeing that everyone was present, Vice Palace Master Wu looked at the six of them and smiled, "Today, I’ve summoned you because in three days, six students from Tianluo Academy will come for an exchange, and you are the representatives of our academy." "An exchange battle?" Hearing this, the six of them were taken aback. "Yes." Vice Palace Master Wu explained, "This exchange is essentially a competition, but it’s a warm-up for the upcoming Tournament of the Eight Palaces. Don’t feel pressured, just do your best. Additionally, take this opportunity to gauge the gap between yourselves and students from other academies, and use the remaining six months to enhance your strength accordingly." In recent years, True Martial Academy has always been at the bottom of every Tournament of the Eight Palaces. Hence, he didn’t hold much hope. Although Tianluo Academy wasn’t considered very strong either, ranking mid-tier among the Eight Great Academies, it was still a notch above True Martial Academy. "Alright!" The six of them responded at once. Aside from Ling Chen, the rest, being the top talents of True Martial Academy with backgrounds from the six major families, were extremely confident about the upcoming exchange battle. And Ling Chen was an upper-middle-grade Divine Thought Master, almost invincible among those in the Spirit Sea Realm! "Alright, spend the next few days preparing." Vice Palace Master Wu nodded. Just as the six were about to leave, the Palace Master suddenly spoke, "Ling Chen, stay behind for a moment." "Alright!" Ling Chen nodded. He wasn’t sure what the Palace Master wanted with him. After all, during the recent True Martial Tower assessment, his mishap had caused quite a commotion and considerable embarrassment for the Palace Master and other senior officials. Qin Wan Er and the other four glanced at Ling Chen and left the hall. As soon as the five of them were gone, the Palace Master turned to Ling Chen and said, "It wasn’t convenient to speak with them here. Now, let me discuss the details of this exchange battle with you." "Yes." Ling Chen nodded again. "To be honest, I have almost no expectations for you in this exchange battle. The students from Tianluo Academy coming for the exchange all possess Super Spiritual Bodies, with the lowest among them being in the late stages of the eighth level of the Spirit Sea Realm! Even stronger than Qin Wan Er, who is the most powerful among you." "Therefore, whether it’s Qin Wan Er or any of the others, they stand virtually no chance of winning against their opponents." "But you are different!" The Palace Master’s demeanor became grave, "You cultivate both Divine Soul and Spiritual Power. Furthermore, in terms of Divine Soul cultivation, you are practically invincible in the Spirit Sea Realm. Therefore, I hope that when it’s your turn to fight, you will attack your opponent with your Divine Soul Telekinesis." "Take them by surprise, and you might just stand a chance to defeat them!" Upon hearing this, Ling Chen’s eyebrows knitted slightly, "The lowest of them is in the late stages of the eighth level of the Spirit Sea Realm and they possess Super Spiritual Bodies, matching the strength of Primordial Pill Realm powerhouses. Palace Master, do you think my Telekinesis at the Peak of Reality Realm is capable of dealing with that?" The Palace Master nodded with satisfaction, "Of course, I understand. But if I plan for you to make a move, naturally, I have my methods." He opened his palm and a black Flying Knife emerged. A stream of Spiritual Power flowed from his palm, supporting the Flying Knife as it hovered in front of Ling Chen. "This is..." Ling Chen’s eyes sharpened. He could clearly sense the power of the Flying Knife. "That’s right!" The Palace Master affirmed with a nod, "This is a middle-grade thought weapon!" "With just your Divine Soul Telekinesis, you definitely can’t threaten a Primordial Pill Realm powerhouse. Even if you wield a lower-grade thought weapon, it might not be effective. However, I have prepared this middle-grade thought weapon for you! With this formidable weapon in hand, breaking through the Spiritual Power Defense of someone in the Primordial Pill Realm should be effortless." "If you manage to defeat your opponent, this middle-grade thought weapon will be yours as a reward!" The Palace Master said with a smile. For a Divine Thought Master, a Telekinesis Weapon, especially a middle-grade one, holds an immense allure. He didn’t believe that Ling Chen would be unmoved. "Agreed." Ling Chen’s eyes glowed with warmth as he grabbed the middle-grade Telekinesis Flying Knife into his hand. Seeing Ling Chen accept the offer, the Palace Master secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Their True Martial Academy was in dire need of a victory. Over the past several decades, they had not only been utterly defeated in the Eight Palaces Martial Contest but also lacked a single victory in these exchange battles. As one of the Eight Great Academies of the Dynasty, it was a disgrace for it to decline to such a state, and he, the Palace Master, couldn’t lift his head among the other seven Palace Masters. Now that there was Ling Chen, a Divine Thought Master with heavenly talents, he naturally wanted to seize the opportunity. "Additionally, here are two Elixirs, one Spirit Ascending Pill and one Detoxification Pill, consider them an advance reward for you!" Saying this, the Palace Master tossed over two Jade Bottles. The Spirit Ascending Pill could unconditionally increase one’s cultivation by one level within the Spirit Sea Realm. Ling Chen had taken it before, naturally knowing its effects. The Detoxification Pill, as the name implies, is for removing the toxins within a Cultivator’s body. This was specifically chosen by the Palace Master for Ling Chen. After all, Ling Chen’s Spiritual Power Cultivation was all achieved through consuming Elixirs. To reach the seventh level of the Spirit Sea Realm, the number of Elixirs he must have taken was terrifyingly high, and the accumulated toxins in his body were also exceedingly horrifying. This Detoxification Pill was exactly what Ling Chen needed to clear the toxins from his system. "Thank you, Palace Master!" Ling Chen accepted without hesitation. Indeed, he had taken many Elixirs but had not felt the presence of toxins in his body. Moreover, he had a Sacred Body. It was said to be impervious to all poisons, unassailable by all arts! What was seen as a dangerous aftereffect of Elixirs to ordinary Cultivators seemed to have no effect on him. Seeing Ling Chen’s positive attitude, the Palace Master cautioned him, "Ling Chen, after taking the Spirit Ascending Pill and the Detoxification Pill, do not consume any other Elixirs. The residual poisons of Elixirs in one’s body is a great hidden danger. Even the Ghost King Guard has said that you mustn’t act recklessly on your own." With his tremendous talent in Divine Soul cultivation, there was no need for Ling Chen to gamble with his life. Just with his prowess in Divine Soul cultivation alone, Ling Chen’s future achievements would be boundless. He might even surpass the Lord National Master! The title of a King Grade Divine Thought Master was expected! "Understood, thank you for the reminder, Palace Master!" Ling Chen said with a smile. Acquiring a middle-grade Telekinesis Weapon was a good deal for him. "Alright, you can go back now and make good preparations. This Palace is looking forward to your performance!" The Palace Master said with a smile. "Understood!" Ling Chen smiled and took his leave. Upon returning to his dwelling, Ling Chen took out the middle-grade Telekinesis Weapon and tried to control it.

Ling Chen’s eyes shone brightly. In terms of power, it was much stronger than a low-grade Telekinesis Weapon, capable of threatening Cultivators at the first or second levels of the Primordial Pill Realm! "Detoxification Pill!" Ling Chen took out an Elixir from his storage ring, it was the one just given to him by the Palace Master. He knew that some toxins could penetrate deep into the marrow and hide exceedingly well, so much so that even as a Divine Thought Master, he might not be able to detect them. Therefore, he decided to take the pill and see if he could eliminate the toxins. After all, he truly had taken a substantial amount of Elixirs. To say that his cultivation was achieved through the use of Elixirs wasn’t an exaggeration! With a flick of his finger, the Detoxification Pill fell into Ling Chen’s mouth.
