  There were a lot of races related to lightning. Although it couldn't be said about commoners, everyone who was in the academy had race with this shining attribute. Xue Ren saw a lot of humans, but he knew that those are actually high races that can perfectly have full human form.

  Of course, there were people who had some feathers or scales on their bodies. Those were mostly medium races, but only few exceptional idiots were looking down on those people.

  Anyway, the human form was used commonly in the universe. Not only it shows that one's race is strong to transform, but also it's simply convenient to do so.

  "Techniques……"

  Right now, Xue Ren was outside his current home. Strolling around the academy, he was learning more and more about it while also keeping an eye on the towers and individuals.

  The power system of the higher worlds after black rank goes in such way from the lowest: Earth Rank, Heaven rank, Nirvana Rank, Heaven Lord, Nirvana Lord, Ascended Lord, Higher Lord, Supreme Monarch, Raising Sovereign and the last Highest Supreme.

  Every rank has first, second and third stage.

  The eleven and twelve wings are what stays at the top of the world. The known fact is that God Of War himself has twelve wings. As for others, Xue Ren had to wait before getting stronger to know about something that common warriors can only dream to know about.

  Muttering 'techniques' was simply because Xue Ren just got reminded that everyone else is quite limited by those. It's perfectly fine for all top living beings to posses only few techniques that they are proficient with as materializing and training those is indeed hard.

  Only now, Xue Ren realized the huge power of Kuzan's reincarnation and his desitny to be born with the power to go against the rules of universe.

  "Are you here for technique as well?"

  The sudden voice rang out as Xue Ren was thinking about Kuzan's powers. The voice was sounding very young, but knowing this world, it's fine for people who look like in early twenties to be actually thousand year monsters.

  As Xue Ren turned around, the young man with golden hair smiled at him. He was smiling at him and patiently waited for his question to be answered. Also, this young man wasn't hiding his powers at all exposing his current rank - Earth rank!

  On his body, he had clothes that most disciples had here, the earth rank uniform that amplified their lightning attribute, but also strengthened the defenses.

  Xue Ren also would get something similar if he became earth rank himself. And speaking of ranks, he is close to do so with his lightning attribute after few days of sex with his lightning ladies. The Sex God was growing nicely indeed and the tower was useful.

  "I am. Let me guess. There are going to be the battle for it as well?"

  "Yes, the battles are ongoing everywhere! Not like we can do anything against it. But the world goes around fighting, so while it's good to fight constantly, it's not good to keep doing it everyday. We also need rest, but the rest I am talking about isn't the rest in towers while absorbing the lightning from the patriatchs."

  The young man seemed kinda talkative which Xue Ren didn't really mind. Ever since coming here, he had to be quite cautious to not expose his unique world ability. He didn't summon his beauties outside and also didn't enter his own world as the colored orb would replace him if he did it.

  Of course, his lightning ladies are pure power so he had leisure to keep training with them.

  So while absobring the energies might seem boring and harbouring work for others, Xue Ren…… was not the one who could blame it. The only thing he can blame is the lack of strong lightning resources.

  "Hah. So what's your plan?"

  "Look. When I take the technique from the shelf, you will accept the duel with me. I will win it and not injure you heavily. I am going to let you train for a while in my tower if you agree."

  The earth rank tower would help Xue Ren reach this very rank quickly. While trying to check the young man whether he is lying or not, the young man kept his friendly attitude and Xue Ren couldn't sense any insincere feelings.

  "Sure."

  After his brief answer, Xue Ren sent his eyes towards his throne room. Here, he had clear look on Superbia sitting comfy on her throne. Ever since the fight with Luxuria, Superbia had better aura around her.

  By better, it was obviously the feeling as though she became closer with him. Like she was attaintable right now and Xue Ren could hope to become as closest as possible. Of course, he didn't rush the things, but Xue Ren had rough guess as to why it was like that.

  All because he had accepted the past.

  Killing the little baby soul was definitely huge thing. Xue Ren wasn't liking this either, but it's not like Superbia had control over it. Furthermore, people tend to forgive and overlook the mistakes of their closest ones.

  Superbia was like that and if she wanted to get more 'human' feelings, then Xue Ren is more than glad to have her like that. But the better case was the 'love' feeling being born. And the best obivously this love being directed at him.

  "Not only we have to fight, but we also must pay for techniques. Bullshit, right?"

  "Right~~"

  The huge library unfolded in front of them as they passed through huge doors. The whole academy had bluish concept of buildings and library wasn't spared from that. Nevertheless, with the small other colors around, the place was beautiful and glorious as the extraordinary amount of resources was gathered in one place.

  Just by looking at those books and scrolls, Xue Ren felt the nice lightning allure.

  "I will take this…… Haa…… Let's go."

  As the golden haired man spoke, he choose the technique and went towards to elder who was looking over the place. After confirming his choice, the young man had his chosen technique being taken by this very elder, the whole play began.

  "I want this technique as well."

  "Good. If you win, then you will get this technique for free."

  Xue Ren had less strength, so the technique would fall into his hands if he actually won against the golden haired boy. Although the elder didn't really believe this, he went with procedures and the battle began.

  As good actor, the golden haired boy smiled and shouted the technique he had already grasped - the lightning flick. Flicking his fingers, the huge thunder explosion rang out, then after a while, the lightning popped out form his finger to go straight onto Xue Ren.

  It's beautiful, blue light was quite exquisite. Even the elder's eyes went slightly wide as he complimented.

  For the experts who spent the time on the lightning attribute, they could discern the talent and potential with eyes alone.

  It seemes like golden haired boy ain't weak opponent!

  Nevertheless, it was all play, so Xue Ren answered like some newbie warrior. He raised his both hands and blocked the lightning bolt with his body alone. Then, scratching himself, he let the blood flow.

  Looks like he is good actor as well.

  "Haaa…… It will be swift battle……"

  The elder shook his head as he completely got fooled by these two. When Xue Ren got lightning bolt smashed into his hands, even the young man who sent it thought that the blood was actually so severe.

  He lowered his speed and power, thus the battle went for a while. Nevertheless, the young man kept his promise and after the battle ended, he invited Xue Ren!

  "I am Tonis Truk~~ Do you keep the blood bags inside your space ring or what? I even got fooled for a while!"

  "You mean most of the battle? And It's Xue Ren."

  "Xue Ren? Hmm~~ Then Little Ren."

  "Little Ren?"

  Quite disgusting nickname as they are both man. However, Truk didn't care about Xue Ren's questioning eyes as he smiled and spoke about goal of every student of this academy.

  "Golden Lightning Palace……"

  "Yeah, that's the strongest concept for everyone in the lightning alliance."

  Golden Lightning Palace is formed as the blood of someone with the divine lightning gets passed down. The Lightning God has a lot of children and the three patriatch and their descendants also have this blood.

  They can pass down a little of their divinity from their ancestor and form a golden lightning palace that can gather other lightning treasures. Treasures inside such palace are obviously stronghtened tenfold."

  "So…… Where does everyone keep this palace?"

  "Heh. It's formidable technique created by the lightning god himself. It connects the body with life concept and soul room with soul concept."

  "Soul concept……"

  As the talk ended, the young men arrived in the tower belonging to Truk. The young man was strong enough to have his own 'Earth Rank Tower'. Before, Xue Ren saw the similar to this rank towers with few people!

  So Truk is quite strong individual.

  "Here is the card. I am off for one week, so it's all yours!"

  "Oh? Where are you going?"

  "Few matters I must attend to! Nothing important! See ya, Little Ren."

  Truk waved his hand, then went into the direction of the main gates to the academy. All his actions truly shown that he is leaving the academy, but Xue Ren still was cautious. It was first meeting and this young man just popped out randomly.

  Although it's common for such situations to happen, Xue Ren was cautious and not wasting any time, he entered the tower. The plain tower was indeed plain as it's main job is to help others train.

  Furthermore, those are all mass made.

  "I should be able to reach the earth rank in three days…… First stage……"

  Xue Ren went with the usual routine. The bed got immediately summoned, but to his surprise, the bed had three boxes…… Those were lunch boxes! Di Xun has sent Xue Ren some vegetables that were rich in tasty energy.

  Since they knew they are going to spend their time in Xue Ren's world, the lady took the initiative to get some seeds of various vegetables. The fresh food stirred Xue Ren's heart as he extended his hand to open the other box.

  This one was clearly from Maria as it had meat only. There was also a lot of blood coming out, but Xue Ren knew that this is the blood Maria had prepared with care as the techniques coming from the divine gates of hers didn't only focus on power, but also on those things that can strengthen ones body.

  Since she was the divinity on the fallen race, the divinity was helping her in every way possible. However, this was only her showing the love for Xue Ren with everything she got…… If Maria had divine equipment with soul, then it would faceplam itself for sure.

  Then the third one was from Muir. In her case, Xue Ren felt slightly bad as he knew she liked the bustling with people city, but…… as his first divine 'army' lady, she had to adapt to being in his world for a long time.

  Of course, the small lady didn't mind as she wasn't alone and taking care of new world was something one simply couldn't experience. Taking care of the soil and its lawn was the pleasure in itself for her who had been living in the cave for most of her life.

  As for her box with food, it was quite messy. Muir wasn't talented in cooking, that's for sure!

  Still, Xue Ren ate everything and with his 'demon' body it wasn't really hard to do so. Then, as the boxes got cleaned, the sex god summoned his lightning ladies from Kuzan's bloodline and the training began the moment the lightning descended from the patriatchs.

  Of course, they were refilling the towers that were lacking in any energy and strangely enough, Truk's tower was all empty.
