Chapter 1318: Chapter 1318
Flying through the air, Du You also sighed in relief. "Fortunately, they haven’t established a portal in their main territory over there."
Each territory can only build a limited number of portals, for instance, a sixth-tier territory can establish up to six portals linked to Earth. Each time a level is raised, one more portal is added, which is a fixed rule.
Previously, Du You had been keeping an eye on several scrolls within his own space, all of which sealed sixth-tier Zombie Dragons and Ghost Dragons. Should any issues arise, he would immediately release them and then cover his own escape.
The reason he chose to boldly use the main gate was also because he feared being surrounded.
With the stable forces of a sixth-tier powerhouse present, Du You was certain the opponent had a sixth-tier territory. If the opponent’s territory portal was open in this area, the appearance of sixth-tier military branches could encircle him, which would be very dangerous.
Although Du You guessed that this sub-group might not have such advantages, he dared not ignore the possibility. Fortunately, his guess proved correct.
After flying home, Du You and his companions rested at home for a day without any incidents.
No news had spread from the outside world, as if the Dark Night Mercenary Group had discovered nothing. Du You still didn’t know the state of his opponent, but he absolutely wouldn’t take it lightly.
"It’s a good time to make a trip to Central City and ask Li Minglu to keep an eye on the Dark Night Mercenary Group," Du You thought to himself and said.
Upon arriving at Central City, Du You furrowed his brows because the limit of the Giant World was tier five, and both he and the sisters were suppressed. Although he could still exert the power of a fifth-tier, because he was a sixth-tier, he could manifest strength that was even stronger than when he had been at the pinnacle of tier five, but it was still far less than his Giant statue.
In this place, he could not manifest the combat power of a sixth-tier. Du You felt that he could forcefully use it once, but only once. After that single strike, he would be expelled from the world by its forces.
During this process, he could not use his skills, which was extremely dangerous.
Moreover, after being expelled, whether he would return to Earth, be sent to another world, or thrown into a spatial turbulence, was uncertain. In any case, using force in a low-level world was fraught with danger.
"I finally understand why high-level Professionals are reluctant to enter low-level worlds."
The two sisters nodded deeply in agreement. Although they had felt some pressure when arriving at these worlds before, it had not affected them personally. However, this was different now; the pressure directly suppressed their own bodies.
After quickly handling the matters here, Du You instructed Li Minglu to notify the academy that he was going to get a new watch.
However, when Du You arrived, he found the academy’s welcome to be somewhat grandiose. He was just a student, and even though the academy had not been too ostentatious, the area within which they were was entirely cleared out.
Moreover, the people who came out to meet him were all leaders of the academy. Even though Du You didn’t see any sixth-tier individuals, the leading person was very familiar to him—it was Director Wang, the one who had led them to attack the Giant World and had once saved his life.
Perhaps the academy had sent Director Wang to receive him for this reason.
"Rumor has it that Student Du You has already advanced to tier six, congratulations indeed," Director Wang said as he approached, smiling, yet feeling incredibly gloomy inside. Throughout all his years, he hadn’t even touched the edge of tier six.
Yet, his student, who barely attended classes, had reached tier six at such a young age. Tier six, which was the conventional power mechanism on Earth. Higher levels of masters usually wouldn’t appear.
"Pure luck, pure luck, I’ve come back this time just to exchange a watch, nothing more, no need for this," Du You felt somewhat frustrated, making him feel like he was no longer just a student.
"It should be, it should be, every sixth-tier is a treasure of humanity and shouldn’t be neglected. We must say,"
Director Wang made a gesture inviting Du You to walk ahead. Du You tried to refuse but it was fruitless, so he had to walk in front. Others looked on as if it was only natural; such was the change brought about by strength.
"To tell the truth, the academy isn’t authorized to distribute sixth-tier watches, no matter which academy it is. If you want a new watch, you’ll need to go to the Asia Alliance to exchange it. And the sixth-tier watch is the highest level available; there isn’t a higher one."
Du You frowned. Given this situation, why hadn’t they informed him earlier? He had asked Li Minglu to contact the academy. It had waste his time coming here for nothing. The source of this content ɪs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽
Seeming to realize what Du You was thinking, Director Wang quickly said, "The reason we’ve asked you to come to the school this time is because the academy needs to make some changes to its cooperation methods."
Du You nodded, "Please speak." He wasn’t sure what the academy wanted to do, but it should be beneficial.
Besides, the academy’s strength was formidable. Based on his current capabilities, he was far from being an opponent for the academy. Du You didn’t want to offend the academy; if things were to escalate, the loss could outweigh the gains.
"It’s , now that you have reached tier six at your age, you will surely reach tier seven in the future, you have the potential. And there are some rules for tier seven, tier-seven powerhouses cannot interfere with ordinary worlds. In ordinary Otherworlds, if a tier-seven powerhouse takes control, others won’t enter. And if other people from Earth have taken control first, tier-seven powerhouses cannot enter."
"These are the rules, right? Okay, I’ll abide by those. But my current domain does not seem capable."
"I understand, that’s precisely what we needed to discuss. Even for tier-seven domains, many are open, it’s just that the common folk don’t know they’re backed by tier-seven beings. Take a look, this is our plan."
Du You took some papers from Director Wang, which noted several things.
First off, the Giant World was completely under control, so everything there stayed the same, but Du You’s designated territory had increased a bit. This was the academy’s way of showing goodwill, and Du You wouldn’t disregard their intention.
Next was the Ice Crystal Plains which the academy was giving to him. The academy originally didn’t have its own territory there, and promised not to establish new territories, but this world was open to students.
Du You looked it over and didn’t say much; after all, a fifth-tier world wasn’t much of his concern.
The most important was the Star Ring Great World. Due to its high level and vast scope, the academy wasn’t willing to relinquish it. This world was one of mutual contestation, to see who had the better tactics, but attacking each other was not allowed.
