Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 262 A Few Things About Taking on Disciples

"Babata, get me the match videos from this year's Genius Tournament, I want to watch them."

Rorschach returned to his residence in Chaos City and gave instructions to Babata.

"Videos of all the players who participated in the Genius Battle?"

Babata asked.

Luo Xia shook his head. "Of course not, just the videos of the top 100 are enough. Let's start with their qualifying rounds."

"Okay!" Babata began to operate.

As Rorschach's intelligent life form, Babata possesses extremely high authority in the virtual universe. Since the original ancestor was rescued by Rorschach, her authority in the virtual universe is second only to the Lord of Chaos City.

Soon, Babata compiled the videos of the top 100 geniuses in this year's Genius Battle.

Rorschach watched them one by one from the start of their selection trials.

He didn't spend too much time watching the videos of the top 100 geniuses.

As expected of the champion of this year's Genius Battle, Di Tuo displayed extraordinary strength from the beginning of the selection competition. When he entered the trial space stage, he directly demonstrated his understanding of spatial laws, which was second only to Bo Lan.

The cosmic energy he absorbs manifests as metal, and he is also skilled in the laws of metal.

"He would be quite suitable to be the eldest brother's disciple."

Luo Xia smiled. Although Di Tuo's talent was not as good as Bo Lan's, it was still extremely excellent. However, in terms of comprehension, he was still far behind Luo Xia's disciple.

Even the number one player, Di Tuo, was like this, not to mention the others.

Luo Xia shook his head. "Finding a suitable disciple is quite difficult."

Babata folded his little hands and hummed:

"Now you know how desperate I was when I was looking for disciples for the boss and the others on Earth, right? I waited for more than 50,000 years before I finally got you and your older brother. If it weren't for the two of you on Earth, I don't know how much longer I would have had to wait."

"It seems the teacher hopes I'll mentor this year's geniuses," Rorschach said with a smile, looking at Babata.

Babata thought for a moment and said, "This Dito is not bad. Although his talent is somewhat lacking, it is still quite good. As a member of the Three-Eyed Clan, they are the natural nemesis of illusionists. He has strong mental talent and is qualified to become your disciple."

Luo Xia stroked his chin, looking at the proudly standing genius on the screen, "Di Tuo...?"

……

"Hey, did you guys hear that?!"

"What? What did you hear?"

"Hey, didn't you know? I got word that Lord Rorschach, who just became a Cosmic Venerable, is going to take on a disciple!"

"Really?! Lord Rorschach is going to take on a disciple?"

"It's true! There's at least a 90% chance it's true!"

For some unknown reason, news that Luo Xia was suddenly going to take on disciples suddenly spread among the human race.

In an instant, countless geniuses became excited and sought all sorts of connections, wanting to become Luo Xia's apprentices.

Rorschach now holds a very high position among humans.

Although he is not yet comparable to the Lord of the Universe, Luo Xia, as the disciple of the Lord of Chaos City and hailed as the strongest genius in the history of the human race, has a reputation that is much stronger than most of the Universe Venerables.

Besides those geniuses, some powerful figures also approached Luo Xia, such as the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom... Luo Xia represented the Qianwu Universe Kingdom in the Genius Battle back then, and had an extraordinary relationship with the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Upon hearing the news that Luo Xia was going to take on a disciple, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom immediately sent an email.

The email was received by Babata, and it contained an introduction to his outstanding descendant who greatly admired Rorschach and hoped that Rorschach would accept him as a disciple.

Luo Xia took the email from the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom quite seriously, inquired about the Primordial Universe, and obtained detailed information about the descendants of the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom.

The descendants of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler are all quite talented and strong. They also enjoy cultivation. While other princes and grandsons are indulging in food, drink, and entertainment, this descendant of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler is diligently cultivating. At only sixty years old, through his own efforts, he has already reached the seventh level of the Universe Realm.

But...

It still doesn't meet Rorschach's requirements for his disciples.

Therefore, Rorschach had Babata send an email to the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, politely declining the offer.

Upon receiving Luo Xia's email, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom showed no dissatisfaction.

He was just trying his luck.

He was well aware of the capabilities of his own descendants.

However... Luo Xia's status and identity are now extraordinary. The young genius who could be looked down upon by him back then now needs him, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, to look up to him.

If he could use the pretext of becoming Rorschach's apprentice to get closer to him...

This would be of great benefit to the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Unfortunately, the descendants he admired so much could not meet Luo Xia's requirements, leaving the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom with no choice but to accept it.

……

Virtual universe, the Bridge to Heaven dimension.

On the island, Di Tuo and the others had already comprehended the Chaos Stele, and now they were all here to try to cross the Heavenly Bridge.

"So this is the Bridge to Heaven..."

"I heard that when Lord Rorschach first attempted to cross the Heavenly Bridge, he made it to the seventh level—an unprecedented feat!"

"Yes! That's truly unprecedented. In the past, even the strongest geniuses would have to spend thirty years comprehending in Chaos City before they could even reach the third level of the Bridge to Heaven when they left. But Lord Luo Xia reached the seventh level on his first try. That's why we say Lord Luo Xia is the most talented genius in the history of our human race!"

"Do you think that if we can reach the third level of the Sky Bridge on our first try, we'll have a chance to become Lord Rorschach's students?"

"Possibly!"

"I've heard that many descendants of powerful figures aspire to become Lord Luo Xia's disciples, but none have succeeded yet. However, as the top 100 in this year's Genius Battle, our chances are very high!"

"Keep striving! Lord Rorschach is a miracle—he became a Cosmic Sovereign in just ten thousand years! If we could become his disciples, it would be of immense help to us!"

"That's right!"

These geniuses discussed it, becoming even more enthusiastic about crossing the Sky Bridge.

The guards nearby shook their heads and laughed as they listened, never expecting that Luo Xia's acceptance of disciples could inspire this group of geniuses to attempt to cross the Heavenly Bridge.

But crossing the overpass is no easy feat.

Twenty-six geniuses have entered the Bridge to Heaven, but none have been able to pass through the first level.

Among these twenty-six geniuses, there is also Nippro, who came in third place.

Even the third-place finisher couldn't get past the first level of the Sky Bridge.

Anyone else who wants to clear the third level of the Sky Bridge on their first try is simply delusional.

It's worth noting that when Berlan, who was once highly regarded by the immortals, first attempted to cross the Sky Bridge, he only managed to clear two levels.

Only that freak Rorschach managed to reach the seventh floor in one go!

Suddenly, the guard's expression froze. "Wait, is this Di Tuo, the winner of this year's Genius Battle? Isn't his talent second only to Bo Lan? How could he have passed the third level on his first try?"

Soon after, news of Dito's first successful breakthrough of the bridge and passage through the third level spread throughout the upper echelons of humanity.

Bolan, Uka, and the others, who had already become peak realm masters, were slightly taken aback when they heard this news.
