Fire cannot be contained by paper.

The news that Xu Ming was a "ten-million-year level" genius quickly spread after a certain Elder of the Questioning Dao Palace "accidentally" leaked it.

Although it wasn't exactly common knowledge, within the Human race, all the great figures above Dao Venerate level already knew Xu Ming's genius level.

Moreover, the Questioning Dao Palace tacitly acknowledged this, further confirming that Xu Ming was indeed a "ten-million-year level" genius.

The Sword Master sat on the main seat.

Elder Xuan Qing, Zhan Wuwei, and several other Elders of the Questioning Dao Palace sat on either side.

"Everyone seems to think that Xu Ming is just a 'ten-million-year level' genius…" The Sword Master pondered, "But they don't know that this news was deliberately spread by us! If they knew 'Gold Battle God's' evaluation of Xu Ming, wouldn't they all be scared witless?"

Deliberately spreading the news that Xu Ming was a "ten-million-year level" genius was a way to conceal Xu Ming's even more terrifying talent!

This could also be considered a way for the Questioning Dao Palace to protect Xu Ming—since the alien races had already guessed Xu Ming's genius level, what was the point of blindly concealing it within the Human race? It was better to simply admit it, so that the alien races would think that Xu Ming was just an ordinary "ten-million-year level" genius.

"Jade must be carved to become a useful object…" The Sword Master continued to think, "Xu Ming's progress is rapid now; to keep him progressing at such a rapid pace, we must find ways to temper him, to sculpt him…"

How to temper and sculpt him?

Within the Human race's territory, it was already difficult to provide Xu Ming with any tempering! The Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races was a good opportunity for tempering!

"But… the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races is incredibly chaotic! And the great figures above Dao Lord level cannot enter to protect Xu Ming… Once something unexpected happens, there's no way to save him…"

The Sword Master was also very conflicted—he wanted to give Xu Ming tempering so that Xu Ming could grow quickly, but he also worried that Xu Ming would encounter unexpected events and die prematurely.

The Sword Master didn't know that his worries were completely unnecessary! The Xu Ming present was just an avatar; as long as he had enough Cheat Points, this avatar could die a thousand times, ten thousand times, without any impact on Xu Ming!

Oh, no!—To be precise, there was still an impact!

Although this was just an avatar, its strength was no different from the original body, and it could still use cheats! If it were killed a thousand times, ten thousand times, then Xu Ming would doubt his life—that was the impact on Xu Ming of dying a thousand times, ten thousand times.

"We must find a way to make Xu Ming safer in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races!"

Xu Ming was now a treasure of the Human race!

To be honest, the Sword Master would rather fall himself than have Xu Ming encounter an accident!

After all, Xu Ming's significance to the race was too great!—As Gold Battle God said, Xu Ming would definitely be able to become a god after he grew up! Once he became a god, wouldn't he be able to directly lead the Human race to glory?

Like back then, when Nine Brilliance True God was around, he swept across the Endless Continent, and who dared to oppose him? The demon race and other alien races were killed to the point where they had almost no place to stand, and could only hide in some remote corners of the Endless Continent, eking out a living.

"I really hope that Xu Ming can grow up quickly…" The Sword Master couldn't help but sigh silently.

The Sword Master thought secretly, his gaze unconsciously falling on Dao Venerate Ye Hai.

"Hmm?" The Sword Master pondered, "Ye Hai is known within the race as 'the number one person below Dao Lord', and other extreme half-step Dao Lords are no match for him… If we ask him to protect Xu Ming, it would make Xu Ming much safer!"

"But…" The Sword Master thought again, "We can't let Ye Hai follow Xu Ming all the time, otherwise, it would lose the effect of life-and-death tempering! Hmm…"

The Sword Master pondered for a while: "Let's do it this way!"

After making up his mind, the Sword Master first sent a voice transmission to Ye Hai to explain the situation, and then called Xu Ming over.

Under Feng Jian's fanatical and envious gaze, Xu Ming walked in front of the Sword Master.

"Xu Ming!" In public, the Sword Master would certainly not act like a brother to Xu Ming; otherwise, wouldn't it be easy to expose that Xu Ming had other extraordinary qualities?

As the Palace Master, he still had to maintain the aloof image of the Palace Master!

"Greetings, Sword Palace Master!" Xu Ming also pretended to be serious.

"Xu Ming, I see that you seem to be planning to enter the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races?" the Sword Master asked.

"Yes!" Xu Ming didn't hide it, "I have already joined Yi Tianxing's team and am preparing to go to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races with them!"

"Hmm! A precious sword is sharpened through honing, and it should indeed be honed more to maintain its sharpness! But…" The Sword Master nodded and said, "You are a rare genius of the race. Once you enter the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races, you will inevitably be targeted and even assassinated by the alien races. And you are still weak now, so it is easy to encounter danger! Therefore, if you encounter danger in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races, you can ask Ye Hai for help!"

Ye Hai obediently stepped forward and expressed his loyalty: "Sword Palace Master, rest assured, once Xu Ming asks me for help, I will definitely rush to support him with all my strength!"

Ye Hai?

Xu Ming didn't really like this "number one person below Dao Lord" who liked to act cool.

Moreover, Xu Ming didn't take Ye Hai's strength seriously!

However, Xu Ming didn't want to go against the Sword Master's good intentions, so he tactfully said: "But Sword Master, it is very difficult to transmit messages within the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races! Even if I really encounter danger, I can't ask Ye Hai for help!"

"You don't need to worry about this!" As the Sword Master spoke, he took out two completely identical circular, smooth pebbles; the patterns on the pebbles were perfect to the extreme, seemingly formed naturally, yet also seemingly engraved by humans, "You will each carry one of these two Karma Stones! Once you encounter danger, you can activate the Karma Stone, and the other party will be able to sense your location and come to support you!"

"Uh…" Xu Ming was speechless—the Sword Master was really thoughtful and comprehensive!

Many Dao Venerates on the field couldn't help but be jealous of Xu Ming.

"It's actually a Karma Stone!"

"The Sword Master is really going to great lengths to temper Xu Ming! He's even using the Karma Stone to allow Ye Hai to provide him with some protection!"

"Alas… We are also Dao Venerates of the race, why don't we have this treatment!" someone said indignantly.

This person who was indignant quickly attracted a burst of ridicule: "What level of genius are you? What level of genius is Xu Ming?—What qualifications do you have to have the race bother to protect you?"

And Xu Ming's first reaction when he saw the Karma Stone was: "This thing is probably very expensive, right?"

"Expensive?" The Sword Master was slightly stunned, "It is quite expensive, and it can only be activated once! Therefore, you must make good use of this one chance to ask for help!"

Ask for help…

Xu Ming just wanted to say: "I want to fight, I fight; I want to leave, I leave; who can stop me? But this Karma Stone, although it is valuable, I can't sell it for many Cheat Points if I sell it to Little Cheat… Alas, if it could be converted into middle-grade Dao Stones for me, how great would that be!"

What Xu Ming lacked was not a chance to ask for help, but level-6 Cheat Points!

It's a pity that the Sword Master didn't understand Xu Ming.
