I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

"I was born in a small village in the Inner Domain, in the county of Tianan; without any martial arts cultivation techniques, never even encountering the martial path. Orphaned at an early age, I was alone and destitute."

"People in the village used to call me Little Wild Dog; I didn\'t even have a name."

"Until I was eight, a celestial-looking elder sister arrived; she was heavily injured, pursued and sought after, seeking sanctuary in our village. I hid her in the cellar."

"I cleared away the residual traces of her presence, deceived her pursuers, and they left…"

Wu Tianan was reminiscing about his childhood, speaking in a leisurely manner.

The Lord of the Thousand Martial Hall and the others were in no rush to strike, instead listening silently. They wanted to know what was the intent behind Wu Tianan\'s prolonged monologue.

At the same time, they were curious about Wu Tianan\'s experience.

This was, after all, a legendary figure who was well-known to have come from the Inner Domain, then entered the Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy, and only when he took control of the Martial Academy, his formidable power was made known.

Wu Tianan continued, "… The beautiful elder sister was severely injured, but she had medicine with her and could recover. It was then that I was introduced to martial arts."

"She passed on the martial arts techniques to me. I found it quite simple and quickly learned."

"Elder sister was astonished at my talent. Once her injuries healed, she stayed in our small village and guided me in the martial path. By the time I turned sixteen, I was already a Great Grandmaster martial artist."

"I thought we would always be together, but she eventually left. She told me to venture into the Ling Domain and enroll at the Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy."

"Before she left, she gave me a name, Wu Tianan!"

"In the Inner Domain, I created the Seven-star Study Palace, spread martial arts, and honed the martial path…"

Wu Tianan, the founder of the Seven-star Study Palace, became a legendary figure after entering the Ling Domain. He joined the Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy which became the Ling Domain associate of the Seven-star Study Palace in the Inner Domain.

The previous president of the academy, who had a preexisting injury, diminished lifespan, fell twenty years after Wu Tianan entered the academy.

With his formidable strength and revered reputation, Wu Tianan assumed the position of dean, persisting with his martial path aspiration, spreading martial arts philosophy across the Ling Domain. Under his leadership, the Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy rapidly rose through the ranks, producing numerous prodigies.

"… Blood Spirit Child was an anomaly. It was because of you, the aristocratic Cultivator clans, that he was driven to insanity."

In the end, Wu Tianan sighed deeply.

The eyebrows of the three chiefs of the Thousand Martial Hall furrowed, feeling somewhat puzzled as to why Wu Tianan would bring up his background and experiences. Was it to demonstrate how legendary his rise to prominence was?

The Master of the Yu Ling Mansion suddenly frowned and said in a deep voice, "Your connection to the martial path originated from that woman. It was also she who directed you towards the Ten Thousand Stars Martial Academy."

"Where has she gone?"

Wu Tianan responded with a radiant smile, "I do not know. There is no trace of her in Ling-Realm, I have been searching for her."

Next, he looked at the three men with a profound gaze and said word by word, "That bridge is about to appear, isn\'t it? Or, do you possess the capacity to summon that bridge?"

When the three leaders of the Thousand Martial Hall heard this, their expressions drastically changed. Their eyes were cold, and a strong intent to kill emerged.

"Fu Tianhai, did you dare to disclose this secret to him?"

Lord Lei Yun angrily looked at Fu Tianhai.

Fu Tianhai rolled his eyes, with an innocent expression on his face, "I, Fu Tianhai, am not a fool. How could I possibly tell him about this secret?"

"How did he know about it? I have no idea."

The Thousand Martial Lord then raised his knife while exuding an overbearing killing aura, "Wu Tianan, you must die today. The All Ages Alliance must also be eradicated!"

Lord Lei Yun\'s momentum was fully unleashed with thunderbolts rumbling around him. The Yu Ling Mansion Master raised his hand and waved. In the distance, a spirit beast quickly fled from within the clouds.

"So, this is the secret of you Spirit Sect members, only held in your hands."

As Wu Tianan spoke, his expression suddenly turned cold.

"The Martial Academy does not stand in the Eighteen States anymore. The only goal of my life is to ascend that Divine Bridge and see if the one I am searching for is there."

"Who can stop me? Who has the right to stop me!"

"Although I did not create the All Ages Alliance, Wen Lin can be considered as half a disciple of mine. For the Alliance today, I will fight for its place!"

Boom!

At this moment, Wu Tianan\'s Measuring Scale shone brightly in his hand.

In the clouds and across heaven and earth, nine mystical forces descended all of a sudden surrounding Wu Tianan. At this moment, his aura prevailed over the three formidable opponents.

"You...how is this possible!"

The three Thousand Martial Lords changed their expression abruptly, looking at Wu Tianan in horror.

Nine complex auras, radiating a faint glow, seemed to contain the ultimate truths of heaven and earth!

Fu Tianhai also looked at Wu Tianan in shock. Had he really grown this powerful?

"What is impossible? I am at the limit of the Spiritual Realm Martial Arts. See if I am eligible to fight for a place in the All Ages Alliance and if I am qualified enough to climb that Divine Bridge!"

Wu Tianan swung his Measuring Scale, casting a magnificent radiance and fighting against the three ultimate powerhouses by himself.

In the clouds above, the intense battle erupted. The Thousand Martial Lords each wielded their Divine Artifacts to jointly challenge Wu Tianan, but they still fell short.

The three of them had five complex auras wrapped around them, four less than Wu Tianan, clearly indicating the disparity in strength.

"Bring out your true power of the Transcendent Spirit Sect and see if I, Wu Tianan, can take it!"

Wu Tianan looked indifferent and cold, his scholarly demeanor coupled with an aura of savageness.

He swung the Measuring Scale, forcing the three Thousand Martial Lords to retreat.

"Why make such a fuss."

A sigh resounds.

Flowers, fantastical as a dream, floated down, a dream-like power surged forth, blocking Wu Tianan\'s attack.

A silhouette, enshrouded in an illusory aura, walked leisurely forward. Despite her blurred features, it was clear that she was extraordinarily beautiful, surpassing all others in the world.

Nine complex auras swirled around her body.

Wu Tianan retreated his Measuring Scale, stared at the figment, the calm on his face mixed with a hint of complication.

"Neither owe a favor, nor owe a grace. From this moment on, I am myself. The heart is like an illusion and the person is like an illusion. It\'s too vain. Xin Mengrou, I didn\'t expect you to come this far."

The three Thousand Martial Lords breathed a sigh of relief amidst their shock. Xin Mengrou has actually come this far. Her strength is no less than Wu Tianan\'s.

The Transcendent Spirit Sect still has the upper hand.

"Wu Tianan knows the secret of the Divine Bridge. He must not be left alive. The All Ages Alliance must also be destroyed. Elder Xin, let\'s join hands to kill Wu Tianan!"

The Thousand Martial Lord spoke solemnly.

However, Xin Mengrou ignored him, just quietly watching Wu Tianan, seemingly deep in thought.

Wu Tianan looked calm, but there was a hint of complexity and sigh in his eyes.

The naive and lively girl who used to trick him into giving her Martial Arts secrets had changed her character completely due to unpredictable occurrences.

"I went to the Inner Domain and killed him, buried him, and paid back a person who saved me in the Inner Domain. I gave birth to a daughter for him.

"In this world, I don\'t owe anyone anything.

"After thinking about it, maybe I still owe some to the principal, such as the martial arts secrets you gave me, and the martial arts principles you explained.

"The Spirit Sect has its own rules. As for the secrets of the Divine Bridge, since you know some, you should know them.

"The dispute between the All Ages Alliance and the Spirit Sect can come to an end, and further fighting will only lead to more deaths.

"Let us continue according to the original rules of the geniuses\' duel. I believe with you there, no one in the Spirit Sect would dare to break the rules."

Xin Mengrou\'s voice was gentle, giving people a dream-like feeling.

Wu Tianan sighed, nodded his head without saying anything. Blood Spirit Child eventually died, killed by Xin Mengrou.

The Thousand Martial Lord became anxious. "Elder Xin, this is the Spirit Sect\'s secret. How can we allow outsiders to know it? The All Ages Alliance must be annihilated. The genius duel is only a joke. How can Loose Cultivators have any geniuses?"

Xin Mengrou looked back at him and said, "If you don\'t accept it, you can fight Wu Tianan. If you win, we will do as you wish!"

"I..."

The Thousand Martial Lord was speechless.

"There is no rule in the Divine Bridge that only people from the Spirit Sect can ascend. It\'s just that the Spirit Sect is in charge. If you can kill Principal Wu, everything will remain the same.

"If not, what if Principal Wu ascends?

"If you want to invoke the Divine Bridge, you can do so. I\'m not going to be involved."

After Xin Mengrou finished, her dream-like figure drifted away.
