Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

With the strength of the Great Xia Kingdom's military, plus the experts from top academies like Jingwu Academy.

Cleaning up a cult shouldn't be too difficult.

Hearing Su Yu's question.

Nie Changkong gave a bitter smile.

He shook his head, his tone revealing a deep sense of helplessness and powerlessness.

"It can't be cleaned up."

"The Abyss Order's actions are exceptionally cautious."

"They are like rats hiding in dark corners; at the slightest disturbance, they will immediately cut off all contact and go into complete hiding."

"and……"

Nie Changkong paused.

He looked up at Su Yu.

A barely concealed yet chilling apprehension flashed in his eyes.

"The most crucial thing is..."

"Among the high-ranking members of our human race..."

"There must be traitors corrupted by the abyss!!!"

boom!

These words were like a thunderclap from a clear sky.

It exploded in Su Yu's ears!

Su Yu fell silent.

For the first time, a strong ripple appeared in his clear, deep eyes.

High-ranking officials are corrupt?!

What does this mean?

This means that the seemingly impregnable defenses of the Great Xia Kingdom were already riddled with holes inside!

This means that you may never know who your comrades, superiors, or even those high-ranking figures are standing next to you.

Is he even human?

"It's actually that dangerous?"

Su Yu's voice carried a rare hint of solemnity.

He originally thought that as long as he was strong enough, he could do whatever he wanted in this world.

But now it seems...

The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light.

It's hard to guard against!

"It's more dangerous than you think!"

Nie Changkong took a deep breath, his expression more serious than ever before.

"Su Yu".

"Your talent is absolutely freakish!"

"An eighteen-year-old with the power of a transformed spear, the mental strength of a Martial King, and that unbelievable speed of cultivation!"

"If the higher-ups of the Abyss Order find out your true nature..."

"They're going to go completely insane!"

"Even if it means exposing a few high-ranking spies within the military, they will spare no expense, mobilizing Martial Kings or even Martial Emperors to completely eliminate you!"

Nie Changkong placed his hands on Su Yu's shoulders.

His tone conveyed an undeniable firmness.

"so."

"At school, try not to reveal your true abilities!"

"All you've shown to the outside world is your transformed spear intent and a thousand points of health!"

"Our mental strength must never be revealed!"

"That terrifying amount of blood energy of 120,000 must be hidden away at all costs!"

"The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind!"

"Until you truly possess the power to suppress everything, keeping a low profile is your only way to survive!"

Su Yu nodded slightly.

He certainly understands this principle.

Surviving and developing is the key to success.

Only when his source blood exceeds one million or ten million, and when his spiritual power reaches the level of a Martial Emperor, will he be able to achieve this.

Only then will he truly be fearless of assassination attempts by any force.

"but."

Nie Changkong changed the subject.

He looked at Su Yu, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Now that you have attracted the attention of the Abyss Order..."

"It would be too dangerous for you to go out and act under your current identity."

"Didn't you complain that the bounty missions at school had too low pay and want to take on those high-paying missions worth hundreds of millions?"

Nie Changkong pondered for a moment.

"I'll apply for another identity for you."

"A shadow identity that is completely independent of the Jingwu system and has no past records."

"This will make it easier for you to accept high-value bounties in the future, go out to hunt exotic beasts, and earn resources."

Nie Changkong sighed.

His tone carried a hint of apology.

"Actually, with your current talent, I should have directly applied to the principal to allocate all of Jingwu's top resources to you."

"It will allow you to advance to the Martial King and Martial Emperor realms in the shortest possible time."

"but."

"I can't apply for it for you right now."

"Because, once a massive amount of top-tier resources flow to a freshman in a shrouded and unclear manner..."

"This will definitely attract the attention of those traitors lurking in the shadows!"

"What if you fall into the eyes of those high-ranking traitors?"

"They might stop at nothing to kill you!"

"I can't gamble with your life!"

Su Yu listened to Nie Changkong's explanation.

A knowing glint flashed in his deep eyes.

He didn't care about Jingwu's resources.

Because he has a system.

With money, he can make endless deductions and become infinitely stronger!

No matter how many resources Jingwu provides, can they compare to the speed at which he can spend 100 million in a second?

"I see."

Su Yu spoke calmly.

"When will the 'shadow identity' be finalized?"

"By tomorrow morning at the latest!"

Nie Changkong said decisively.

"I will use my private privileges to bypass all conventional review systems and directly enter this identity into the Great Xia Kingdom's top-secret database."

"Besides me and the principal, no one else can find out the true background of this identity!"

Nie Changkong bent down.

He picked up the unconscious Shadowblade from the ground with one hand.

"I'm taking this person with me."

"I will interrogate him personally to see if I can pry information about the Abyss Order's other strongholds in Kyoto from him."

"Go back to school and get back to normal."

"Remember my words."

"Keep your trump card hidden!"

"Don't cause any more trouble before the freshman exchange competition begins!"

At this point, Nie Changkong's expression turned solemn, and his tone became extremely stern.

"Also, starting today, you absolutely cannot live off-campus anymore!"

"The outside world is a hundred times more dangerous than you imagine!"

"The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light; it's impossible to defend against them!"

"Your application has been approved. You'll be staying at the Jingwu Freshman Dormitory tonight. It's protected by a protective array, and Martial Kings patrol it 24 hours a day. It's one of the safest places in our Dragon Kingdom."

"Without my permission, or without a shadow identity as cover, never step outside the gates of Jingwu again!"

Nie Changkong gave Su Yu a thousand and one instructions before finally handing him a student card and letting out a sigh of relief.

He picked up the unconscious Shadowblade from the ground with one hand.

With a flash, he transformed into a shooting star that tore through the night sky and disappeared into the vast darkness.

Outside the gate of Jingwu.

Silence returned.

Su Yu stood under the streetlight.

The night breeze ruffled the hem of his clothes.

He raised his head, glanced at the deep night sky, and a thoughtful glint flashed in his clear eyes.

The Abyss Cult?

A high-ranking traitor?

Assassination that seeps into every corner?

Su Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.

It seems the world is far more dangerous than he imagined.

He originally thought that with the system, as long as his qi and blood and cultivation techniques improved quickly enough, he could roam freely in this world without any restraint.

But now it seems that even if he can instantly kill a Grandmaster, he is still at a disadvantage against those powerful forces lurking in the shadows who may deploy Martial Spirits or even Martial Kings at any time.

Before possessing the absolute power to disregard all rules and suppress the entire human race, blindly being high-profile will only bring endless trouble.

Surviving and developing is the key to success.

"The most urgent task at present is to wait for the Chen family's 100 billion in cash to arrive."

Su Yu silently made plans in his mind.

As long as the money is in place.

If you pour all of it into the system, that's a full 100 billion years of cultivation!

Once he has fully digested this enormous resource, he will be invincible even if a true Martial Emperor were to personally intervene.

Su Yu withdrew his gaze and turned around.

I walked steadily toward the freshman apartments on campus.

Since Nie Changkong told him to keep a low profile and maintain a normal state as much as possible,

Let's do what freshmen should do.

I'll go to school tomorrow and take any class I feel like.

While we're at it, let's see if there are any suitable Heaven-Rank martial arts techniques in the classrooms of this premier academy of the Great Xia Kingdom.
