Three Noble Children of Chuyun, War Knight, Famine Knight, and Death Knight, along with six divine spirits, have successively fallen. For Europe and the Western Pole Kingdom, such a defeat is akin to the sky collapsing.

Upon learning the outcome, One-Eyed Nick from the Celestial Sword Bureau had already prepared his resignation letter, as someone had to take responsibility for such a colossal blunder.

Clearly, the scheme was set to kill Ye Qingzhou, but in the end, Ye Qingzhou survived, and instead, most of their Martial Saints and Martial Gods perished.

Who could argue against this disaster?

......

Dongji Kingdom, Imperial Capital Dragon Head Mountain.

Returning to his villa, Ye Qingzhou slowly stood in the backyard swimming pool. Suddenly, a layer of red-gold hue appeared in the blue pool water.

This was the life radiance radiating from Ye Qingzhou's body, the vast and surging Qi and Blood resembling the mighty Changjiang River. The Twenty-Four Gods surrounded like stars, evolving into twenty-four types of qi seasons, and the Eight Extraordinary Meridians roared, echoing with Dragon's Roar.

In the Dantian Qi Sea, the golden-red 'One Qi Pure Yang' released infinite light and heat, and extremely pure energy nourished every cell in Ye Qingzhou's body every moment.

"Nine Refinements of Divine Fire, One Qi Pure Yang. My Dantian Qi Sea now seems to have become a special structure akin to a nuclear fusion furnace, capable of providing nearly infinite energy."

Ye Qingzhou pondered in his heart.

Now, he no longer needs to cultivate intentionally. Instead, his body continually cultivates on its own, constantly refining, strengthening, and sublimating.

All the techniques and methods previously learned have now turned into fuel, thrown into the furnace, becoming nutrients for the growth and expansion of the Infinite Heart Image.

"Ye Qingzhou."

Xu Yuebing, wearing a sky-blue dress, smiling like a blooming flower, brought a plate of sliced Spirit Fruit to the poolside, reminding him, "It'll be time to return to school soon. Don't keep Principal Lin and Teacher Molly waiting too long."

"I know."

Ye Qingzhou opened his mouth, eating the Spirit Fruit Xu Yuebing fed him, then dressed and went to the front gate of the villa.

An autonomous car had been waiting for quite some time.

"Dragon Steed Navigation at your service."

The car door opened automatically, with a sweet female voice sounding.

"To Imperial University."

Ye Qingzhou sat in the car, and not long after, he arrived at Imperial University.

At this moment, many people on campus were discussing Chuyun Lu Chen and Ye Qingzhou's series of victories against the Saints. Among the crowd were several of his classmates.

Ye Qingzhou had no intention of flaunting. He activated the Infinite Heart Image, and those who were neither at the Martial Saint Realm nor possessed special Divine Techniques couldn't even sense his existence.

Thus, Ye Qingzhou proceeded without alarming anyone, directly arriving at the principal's office.

In the room adorned with an ancient style, an elderly man in a Zhongshan suit looked at Ye Qingzhou with a warm expression, very gratified: "Not bad, body ascension, your future is limitless."

Sitting in front of Ye Qingzhou was Principal Lin Xuezhou of Imperial University, a Peak Grandmaster.

"Hello, Principal."

Ye Qingzhou slightly bowed, and upon opening his Celestial Eye, he immediately noticed issues with Principal Lin's Qi and Blood, resembling injuries caused by a Divine Abomination's attack.

In fact, Lin Xuezhou was once a Martial Saint Strong Person, but after battling a runaway Divine Abomination emerging from a Grotto Heaven, his mental imagery shattered and his cultivation reverted.

This is a respectable strong person and a pioneer on the Martial Dao path.

Towards such people with an enterprising spirit, Ye Qingzhou always held great respect.

Although Lin Xuezhou's cultivation regressed, his insight remained, offering Ye Qingzhou a couple of pointers: "Your heart image is quite unique. I don't have much experience to share with you, but there are some ancient scriptures unearthed from historical sites concerning 'emptiness'. You can take a look and see what you can comprehend."

Lin Xuezhou smiled, appearing very calm and collected.

At his age and rank, besides guiding juniors onto the correct Martial Dao path, he had no other pursuits.

"Thanks to the principal's nurturing, the school's library greatly aided me..."

Ye Qingzhou spoke sincerely, as he had practically emptied Imperial University's library, offering some compliments was certainly deserved, a person should never forget their roots.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Principal Lin Xuezhou finally spoke on serious matters: "Ye Qingzhou, are you interested in becoming a professor at Imperial University?"

"Me, becoming a professor?"

"Indeed."

Lin Xuezhou sincerely stated: "In terms of cultivation, you've reached the level of a Martial Saint; none throughout Imperial University surpasses you in Martial Arts Cultivation. Hence, the title of professor is rightfully yours."

To be evaluated for a professor position at any higher education institution in the Dongji Kingdom is challenging, requiring age restrictions, accomplishments in academic fields, and even numerous unspoken rules; all aspects must be accounted for.

But a Martial Saint can disregard all such rules and unspoken norms.

Now, it's not Ye Qingzhou needing a professor title to elevate his status, but Imperial University needing a Martial Saint to highlight their strengths over other domestic universities.

Especially against institutions ranked second and third: National Defense University and Modu University.

"With the principal's gracious invitation, naturally, I will not refuse."

Ye Qingzhou smiled gently, agreeing without hesitation.

"Haha, I knew you would accept."

Lin Xuezhou was very pleased, reciprocating the favor: "You've already become a professor, eligible to independently initiate projects, conducting practical research in Martial Dao. By the way, I've heard you wish to create a powerful Elemental Spirit Armor. Perhaps I could provide some aid in that aspect."

"Thank you, principal."

Ye Qingzhou mused silently, indeed, one cannot write two 'Zhou' characters, for the principal truly understands me.

"Below Martial Saint, armors are standard, selecting suitable modules for assembly can quickly establish combat capability..."

Clearly, Lin Xuezhou also participated in the Elemental Spirit Armor research project, speaking knowledgeably: "As for the Martial Saint level, armors are custom-made, consuming immense resources. Moreover, it's a massive systemic endeavor, impossible for one person to complete alone."

Ye Qingzhou displayed a learning expression, acknowledging Lin Xuezhou spoke truthfully, understanding this endeavor requires substantial effort. A single piece of armor involves the entire technological and production system of Dongji Kingdom, encapsulating the wisdom of countless individuals.

Even possessing the Flame Emperor's inheritance and mastering Celestial Human Casting Technique cannot allow Ye Qingzhou to independently manufacture Elemental Spirit Armor, unless he disregards armor quality.

"There are many types of armors, usually paired with matching cultivation techniques and martial skills. Take Divine Strategy Army's Four Great Divine Generals as an example; Cyan Dragon focuses on mind and spirit enhancement, Vermilion Bird on Primordial Qi manipulation, Xuanwu on physique strengthening, while White Tiger emphasizes array and weapons, each has its specialty."

"Besides that, utilizing special materials, crafting 'Biological Armor', based on residual Ancient Kun Race bio-technologies, deduced some valuable new technologies. National Defense University conducts substantial relevant research, sharing results with Imperial University..."

Lin Xuezhou briefly introduced this, finally summarizing: "The Four Great Divine Generals' armors can temporarily access Martial God Realm through Overclocking Mode. If you also desire such caliber Elemental Spirit Armor, preparations must begin immediately."

Ye Qingzhou listened earnestly: "Yes, I understand."

"An exceptional armor requires significant logistical and maintenance team support, in this regard, the school can provide strong backing."

Evidently, Lin Xuezhou viewed Ye Qingzhou as Imperial's next principal in grooming, offering him full-hearted support.

Indeed, behind every strong person like Gu Minghui and Cyan Dragon Divine General, lies a powerful technical team aiding them. Otherwise, Elemental Spirit Armor's combat efficacy cannot be assured.

Now, Ye Qingzhou also possesses such logistical support.
