Much of the discussion revolved around the benefits of DaXia Academy and the different trials and opportunities it offered. Tang Junkai shared his vast knowledge, and Jiang Chen listened intently.
It had to be said— this instructor from DaXia Academy was remarkably well-informed. His insights provided Jiang Chen with a clearer understanding of the grander workings of the world.
He spoke of dimensional traversing, realm incursions, and full-scale world conquests.
Though Jiang Chen had learned of these things in his previous life, Tang Junkai's explanations were far more detailed and nuanced.
This knowledge would undoubtedly serve him well when he ventured into other worlds in the future.
As Jiang Chen and his family journeyed toward DaXia Capital aboard the skyship, deep within a hidden realm of DaXia Academy, two figures emerged, their robes tattered and their breaths uneven.
"Xiao Xi, did you truly acquire this technique from that Ninja World?"
"It's potential might exceed even Fourth Tier!"
Su Xia exclaimed in astonishment.
Her student had just returned from her second realm traversal, reaching the peak of Third Tier in the process. Su Xia had intended to guide her through special training— both to refine her combat abilities and to prepare her for the ultimate challenge: World Conquest.
If Jiang Xi could be the first to conquer the Ninja World, the benefits would be unimaginable.
However, upon stepping into the realm, Su Xia was left utterly stunned.
Jiang Xi's power and growth far surpassed her expectations.
Though she was still technically at Third Tier, the strength she demonstrated already rivaled many ordinary Fourth Tier Powerhouses.
More importantly, the nature of her abilities suggested untapped potential that could even surpass warriors of Fifth or possibly Sixth Tier worlds.
Just as Su Xia was processing this revelation, a talisman inscribed with runes suddenly lit up in her hands.
"Wait a moment. There's an urgent message." She spoke as she instinctively activated the talisman. But as soon as she read the contents, her calm demeanor wavered.
"The Second Descent?" Her eyes widened in shock.
"What's wrong, Teacher?" Jiang Xi, noticing her reaction, frowned in concern.
"Xiao Xi, something monumental has happened. A month ago, someone broke through to Seventh Tier, and with it— the Second Dimensional Descent has begun!"
Taking a deep breath, Su Xia struggled to contain her astonishment as she delivered the news.
"Someone has broken through to Seventh Tier?" Jiang Xi was equally taken aback.
Seventh Tier.
As a student of DaXia Academy, she understood all too well what that signified.
"Yes. It is confirmed— A Seventh Tier Powerhouse has emerged. And because of this breakthrough, a Second Dimensional Descent has been triggered. The DaXia Federation has already mobilized in response and is initiating a large-scale relocation of all Third Tier strongholds."
"Xiao Xi, I recall that your home is one of those cities, isn't it?"
Su Xia's expression grew somber as she turned to Jiang Xi with concern.
"Teacher, are you saying… the federation is planning to evacuate all Third Tier base cities?" Jiang Xi's heart sank as the realization dawned on her.
"Yes. The process began a month ago."
"The federation will systematically withdraw from all Third Tier base cities, consolidating its power into the ten First Tier cities and a select twenty-plus Second Tier strongholds."
Su Xia nodded gravely.
…
"Master, I wonder if I can trade a complete Fourth Tier evolution path for a spot in the Great Xia Capital Prefecture!" Jiang Xi, deep in thought, turned to her master, Su Xia, and hesitantly posed the question.
"A complete Fourth Tier path?" Su Xia was momentarily stunned but quickly regained her composure.
It was clear Jiang Xi was referring to her own path of extraordinary advancement.
Her brow furrowed slightly.
"Xiao Xi, you know how crucial it is for a World Conqueror to be a Pioneer Conqueror. Once you give that up, your advantage as a pioneer will be greatly diminished."
"As for relocation, don't worry. Didn't you mention your brother has already reached Third Tier? I've already reported it to the Great Xia Capital Prefecture. Even if they can't grant him top-tier information, first-tier information shouldn't be an issue. Once he completes the assessment, he'll be able to enter the Great Xia Academy. As for your parents, they can apply for the Student Family Member Guarantee, which will allow them to live in the Great Xia Prefecture for a year." Su Xia spoke with a furrowed brow.
"I know, but—" Jiang Xi nodded, yet she couldn't help but interject.
"Alright, don't rush. Let me check on the progress over there first." Seeing Jiang Xi about to speak again, Su Xia sighed and quickly added.
Jiang Xi hesitated but eventually nodded.
Su Xia didn't delay and swiftly began her inquiry.
However, upon checking, Su Xia couldn't help but be stunned.
"Xiao Xi, are you sure your brother is only Third Tier?"
Su Xia instantly looked up, her gaze fixed on Jiang Xi as she spoke in confusion.
"What's wrong, Master?" Su Xia's sudden words left Jiang Xi bewildered, and she instinctively asked.
"Just now, I received news that the Great Xia Academy has admitted a student this year, and it's a top-tier admission— Jiang Chen from Shaoxin Eighth Middle School in Shaoxin Base City, Jiangnan Prefecture." Su Xia took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"Top-tier admission?" Hearing Su Xia's words, Jiang Xi's eyes widened in disbelief.
As a student of the Great Xia Prefecture and even an admitted student herself, Jiang Xi naturally understood what a top-tier admission meant. It was the highest level of admission permission in the entire Great Xia Prefecture, and even in all higher academies.
Each school only had one quota per year.
Even she had only received a first-tier admission back then.
"That's right. It seems you don't need to worry anymore. With a top-tier admission, the school will take care of everything." Su Xia spoke with a sigh, her heart also feeling a bit unsettled.
She had met Jiang Xi's brother before and had thought he was nothing special, with rather ordinary talents. He didn't seem to meet the requirements for higher academy admission, let alone a top-tier one.
But who would have thought that in less than a year, after logging into the world, he had undergone such a drastic change.
"Mm-hmm!" Jiang Xi nodded excitedly, her expression filled with excitement.
"By the way, I'll contact my brother first!" In her excitement, Jiang Xi suddenly remembered something and quickly spoke.
"Alright!" Su Xia nodded.
Jiang Xi immediately dialed the communication device.
At the edge of the Great Xia Capital Prefecture, Jiang Chen and his family were aboard a spaceship.
They quickly crossed tens of thousands of kilometers and entered the Great Xia Capital Prefecture.
The Great Xia Capital Prefecture lived up to its reputation as one of the most important cities in the Great Xia Federation.
Its scope was beyond imagination.
