Enlightenment State

Red light! He understood his technique 70 percent now! And it has only been a few hours since he understood 50 percent! How talented is this man?! He humiliated the 'quick learner' with his learning speed!" Xue Jiye could no longer hold her voice and muttered in a shocked voice.

'I wonder what it looks like in the audience room right now... How did the sect elders react to this young man?' Xue Jiye pondered to herself.

Meanwhile, in the audience room, everyone there turned to look at Elder Xuan with deep expressions on their faces, think for yourself how Elder Xuan would most likely win this gamble and earn 20 years worth of contribution points in a single bet.

Returning back to Yusri's mind, he continued watching the Dragon obliterating stars every few breaths until he could see the scene even if he closed his eyes and stopped watching.

After spending a few more days inside this special space, Yusri's eyes suddenly turned golden, resembling the eyes of a Dragon.

When the Dragon noticed the change in Yusri's eyes, it was inwardly shocked by Yusri's progress.

'This human has comprehended the Dragon's gaze in such a way?! It's only been a week since we started!' The dragon was crying in his heart. 'At this rate, I would actually lose the bet! To think I, the Great One, would lose to mere mortals! Even if it was just something as small as losing a bet, it was still more than enough for me to lose face! Lucky for me, we are alone here and I am just an illusion, or any other Divine Beast will definitely turn me into a laughingstock!'

"Why did you stop? Are you tired?" Yusri asks the Dragon when it suddenly stops using the Dragon's gaze to destroy the planet, forcing him out of the trance and stopping his progress for a bit.

"No... I'm doing fine. I am just a mere illusion so I cannot experience exhaustion. Let's continue."

The dragon continued to fire invisible beams from its large eyes that looked larger than the planets it destroyed a moment later, and Yusri again stared at the scene with a dazed expression on his face.

After watching for a few more hours, Yusri suddenly closed his eyes, yet somehow he could still see the planets being destroyed by the Dragons.

'Enlightenment! This man has entered a state of enlightenment!' The dragon realized why Yusri suddenly closed his eyes, yet it did not stop destroying the stars.

Meanwhile, in the examination room, the Comprehension Tablet began to change color again.

The red light grew darker, until it was no longer red and completely dark, resembling a void.

"80 percent?! He just hit 70 percent an hour ago! Why did his progress suddenly increase exponentially?!" Xue Jiye closed her mouth in shock.

Even the sect elders in the audience room were confused by Yusri's results.

"It... Could this be enlightenment?" One of the sect elders asked in a strange tone, sounding as if he was doubting himself. However, Yusri experiencing enlightenment is the only logical explanation for the sudden change.

Of course, enlightenment was an extremely rare moment that most Cultivators could live even their entire lives without experiencing it once.

Meanwhile, Yusri had already experienced the enlightenment of both. If the sect elders knew of this, they would truly lose their senses, having never experienced a state of enlightenment.

A few more hours passed inside Yusri's mind, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

A notice also appeared before him a moment later.

«You've learned 'Dragon Stares'!»

«Rank: Kuno»

«Mastery Level: 1»

«Description: A technique created by 'The Great'. One gaze would cause the Gods to bow and Heaven to tremble in fear!»

'ancient-rank?' Yusri raised an eyebrow at this unknown rank.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, an announcement appeared to be witnessed by all the Players.

«Yusri Players has become the first Player in the world to have learned the Ancient ranked skill! Congratulations!»

This announcement stunned and shocked every player in every location around the world.

The players were astonished as they had never heard of the 'Ancient-rank' skill before to this day and were shocked that Player Yusri made another appearance.

Meanwhile, inside the Dragon Essence Temple, the sect elders inside the audience room trembled with excitement as the Comprehension Tablet suddenly changed color, turning into a beautiful and majestic golden light!

"He succeeded! 90 Percent understanding! He has achieved the Founder's results! And he did it in less than a day!" The sect elders rejoiced as if they were watching their own child.

"Just 10 percent more and he'll make history... However, overcoming this last 10 percent was like trying to reach heaven; it would not be easy at all, and it would probably be harder to achieve than the previous 90 percent..." Long Yijun muttered with a serious expression on his face.

"Well, he still has six more days to understand the last 10 percent. Even if he did not do so, he had already surpassed the Founder in terms of cultivation talent and comprehension skills. We should nurture this young man and not set aside a fee for him no matter what," Elder Xuan spoke with a deep expression on his face.

Returning to Yusri's mind, the Dragon looked at Yusri with a puzzled look.

"3,000... You have managed to learn the Dragon's Stare after watching it less than 3,000 times. Compared to the previous humans, you... No, it would be impolite for you if I were to compare you to someone who took years of effort to learn this technique while you were doing it in less than a week inside this space."

"How powerful is the Ancient ranked technique?" Yusri asked the Dragon afterwards.

"The Ancient Rank is one rank above the Divine rank." The dragon replied, and continued, "However, even though it is only one rank higher, it is many times stronger than the Divine rank techniques out there."
