The alliance leader takes on a disciple, reaching the peak of the Emperor realm.
Aila and the other three were astonished to read this, for the peak of the Emperor realm was equivalent to their own cultivation level.
This meant their current cultivation was just barely enough to be an alliance leader's disciple.
Seeing Mu Ling'er successfully become a disciple, Zofie, the Star Lord of the planet Quila, looked conflicted. As a newly discovered planet like Ye Xuan's, he lacked Ye Xuan's strength to protect his own planet.
But... he didn't possess the talent that Mu Ling'er had. What could he offer this esteemed adult to gain his favor?
That's right!
Zofie suddenly recalled the reason the Battle Axe Alliance had attacked and occupied planet Quila. It was indeed the Emperor Crystals.
"My Lord!"
With this thought, Zofie no longer hesitated and continued, "Although I don't know why you bought the people of Quila, I have information that might be useful to you."
"My Lord may know that the Battle Axe Alliance has become the master of Quila, but perhaps you don't know that the reason they occupied Quila is because they discovered an Emperor Crystal vein on the planet."
"As for its grade, I'm not sure, so..."
At this point, Zofie knelt on one knee, "If my Lord can reclaim planet Quila, I assure you will not be disappointed."
"Oh?"
Ye Xuan smiled slightly upon hearing Zofie's words. Just then, the system's voice sounded in his ear.
"Ding! The host has triggered a choice mission: Rescue planet Quila and destroy the evil forces of the Battle Axe Alliance!"
"Mission Choice One: Accept the mission, receive a tenfold rebate, with a rebate cap of 12,000 Star River coins, and a gift of 10 mid-grade Emperor Crystals!"
"Mission Choice Two: Reject the mission, and your wealth will be reduced by 30%!"
Ye Xuan paused upon hearing the system's voice, "An Emperor Crystal vein? This is interesting."
"Zofie, stay. The rest of you may leave."
A short while later.
In the training ground of the Xuan Alliance branch, only Ye Xuan and Zofie remained.
"My Lord, are you truly willing to rescue planet Quila!"
Hearing Ye Xuan's decision, Zofie's eyes filled with brilliance. He knelt down with a thud, "Thank you, my Lord!!"
"Heh heh, get up. I'm not doing this for you, but for the Emperor Crystal vein on planet Quila."
"Make preparations. We will head to planet Quila tomorrow."
Zofie was not foolish; he naturally understood that Ye Xuan intended to help their planet Quila.
"My Lord's grace is unforgettable for eternity!"
At this moment, Zofie took a deep breath. However, before he could fully relax, he saw Ye Xuan produce a crystal stone in his right hand, which was identical to Mu Ling'er's mid-grade Emperor Crystal!
"Here, this is a mid-grade Emperor Crystal. I treat everyone equally. Work hard."
"What!"
"This is... a mid-grade Emperor Crystal!?"
Zofie's pupils widened, and he knelt down again with a thud, "Zofie thanks my Lord!!"
"Go."
With a wave of Ye Xuan's hand, Zofie bowed respectfully and left the training ground, his heart filled with unprecedented excitement.
He couldn't help but clench the mid-grade Emperor Crystal in his right hand, feeling the surging energy within. Without a doubt, if he absorbed this mid-grade Emperor Crystal, he would likely become a Great Emperor powerhouse instantly.
One day, he would become even stronger!
Watching Zofie depart, Ye Xuan curled his lips, and his figure flickered. In the next instant, he arrived in a room deep within the Xuan Alliance branch.
Swish~
With a flip of his right hand, a high-grade Emperor Crystal appeared in his grasp, undoubtedly the peerless high-grade Emperor Crystal given by Yelifu, the Star Lord of Atlantis.
"Consume!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Xuan began to absorb the high-grade Emperor Crystal. In the next moment, a terrifying torrent of energy instantly engulfed Ye Xuan.
Under this overwhelming power, Ye Xuan's cultivation level immediately advanced from the peak of the third-tier Great Emperor to the fourth-tier Great Emperor. Furthermore, under the absorption of the high-grade Emperor Crystal, his cultivation rapidly stabilized and soared towards the fifth-tier Great Emperor.
This was not all. Ye Xuan then proceeded to absorb all the remaining mid-grade Emperor Crystals. Fueled by this terrifying energy.
Fifteen minutes later.
An aura of the peak fourth-tier Great Emperor surged outwards, bringing him within reach of the fifth-tier Great Emperor.
In terms of cultivation level alone, Ye Xuan at this moment could rank within the top three among the eight Great Generals. As for combat power, even the King of Slaughter might not be able to defeat him.
He clenched his right fist, feeling the terrifying and surging energy. "Peak fourth-tier Great Emperor, as expected... I am much stronger than before."
If he were to face those nine peak third-tier Great Emperors again, Ye Xuan felt he could suppress them with a single palm.
"Battle Axe Alliance, I shall establish my might with this force."
Thus Ye Xuan thought, a smile playing on his lips, while the Battle Axe Alliance remained unaware of the formidable existence that had set its sights on them.
Meanwhile.
In Zofie's room, Zofie had adjusted his state of mind and energy to their best. This was a rare opportunity for him, so he had to approach it with utmost seriousness and effort.
"Good."
"Since that's the case, let's begin."
With everything prepared, Zofie began to absorb the mid-grade Emperor Crystal. Energy surged in, and as expected.
A short while later.
Zofie, who was at the peak of the Dao Lord realm, directly broke through to the Great Emperor realm. He was currently Ye Xuan's first subordinate to reach the Great Emperor realm.
"Is this... the Great Emperor realm!?"
Zofie felt the power within him, his eyes shining with a brilliant cold light.
"However, being only a first-tier Great Emperor is far from enough."
Even with this newfound strength, his cultivation was still no match for the peak third-tier Great Emperor strength of the Battle Axe Alliance's leader.
Frankly speaking, he was merely a slightly stronger ant.
Even though he had now entered the Great Emperor realm, he was still powerless to resist the Battle Axe Alliance's occupation of his planet.
Just then, a voice echoed throughout every corner of the planet Atlantis.
"The Atlantis Star General Competition has concluded. Blue Star's Ye Xuan has been appointed as Star General. This is an official announcement!"
Wow!!
Upon hearing this, Atlantis was thrown into an unprecedented uproar. After all, whether it was the Four Great War Kings or the Eight Great Star Generals, they were figures highly revered by the planet, their heroes and their pride.
Aila was having tea in her room, having shamelessly imposed herself there.
Upon hearing the announcement broadcasted through the air, Aila 'pfft'ed out a mouthful of tea, coughing violently. Clearly, she was almost choked to death by the tea.
Indeed, this piece of information had hit her with immense impact!
Just as she realized the high status of a Star General, this news arrived, causing an unprecedented shock!
"Cheshia, this... the Alliance Leader has become an Atlantis Star General? Is this... true or false!?"
Aila licked her lips. If the Star Generals of Atlantis were truly so powerful, then wouldn't their newly established Xuan Alliance branch here walk sideways without anyone daring to question them in the future?
