Chapter 117 - Chapter 116: Gaining an Identity in Heaven, Preparing for the Lottery, Giving This World and the Three Realms a Surprise

At this moment, facing the direct question from Wu Qu Xingjun, Leo gave only a faint nod."Mm."He neither bowed nor showed the slightest deference. His indifferent attitude remained unwavering.Standing beside him, Heavenly General Zhang Kuo looked helpless. He quickly stepped forward, clasped his fists toward Wu Qu Xingjun, and explained, "Lord Xingjun, he's just recently ascended from the lower realm and isn't yet familiar with the heavenly rules."Wu Qu Xingjun, with his imposing aura and strong presence, nodded without offense. "It's alright."Bang—!The next moment, Wu Qu Xingjun reached out and lightly patted Leo's shoulder."Young man," he said, "I've heard from Zhang Kuo that you possess an innate magical power involving three distinct eyes, akin to the divine eye of the [God of Justice · Yang Jian]?""Is that true?"He looked directly at Leo, his thick eyebrows and sharp eyes filled with curiosity.Leo maintained his calm, nodding indifferently. "Yes.""Then may I have a look?"Wu Qu Xingjun's tone was inquisitive but polite. He was eager to examine Leo's powerful ocular abilities—specifically, the [Nine Magatama Rinne-Sharingan] in his eyes and the [Super Moon Eye] with golden magatama on his forehead.In response, Leo didn't hesitate."Moon Goddess!"Without a word of warning, Leo activated his [Rinnegan Eye Technique: Moon Goddess], directing it squarely at Wu Qu Xingjun.Boom—!An immense wave of super gravity erupted in an instant, targeting Wu Qu Xingjun alone."Hm?"The Star Lord's fingers, still resting on Leo's shoulder, twitched slightly. However, he remained standing, completely unaffected by the gravity."Leo, don't be disrespectful!" Zhang Kuo called out in alarm, clearly shaken.Leo, however, was unfazed—like a newborn calf unafraid of the tiger.…"Very impressive. But… is that all?"Wu Qu Xingjun withdrew his hand from Leo's shoulder and offered a faint, amused smile.During this brief moment, he had observed Leo's three eyes—each radiating a different kind of divine brilliance.One pair glowed with a deep azure hue, each eye marked with nine black magatama. On Leo's forehead, the red third eye shimmered, containing nine golden magatama. These were strange and rare ocular powers—possibly three different innate abilities.It made Wu Qu Xingjun wonder: was this red eye also a true third eye?Despite the power behind Leo's Moon Goddess technique, the Star Lord appeared completely unscathed.Seeing this, Leo narrowed all three eyes slightly.Earlier, his [Heavenly Hand Power] had failed to affect the Heavenly Realm due to the rigid space-time laws. And now, even [Moon Goddess], though usable, seemed to have little effect on this God of War."Shall we continue?" Wu Qu Xingjun asked with a calm smile.That sparked something in Leo—a strong desire to prove himself.Boom—!He began channeling the maximum output of his spiritual energy and pupil power. All three eyes glowed fiercely, releasing vast waves of energy.This was everything Leo could muster at his current stage—still only in the Earth Immortal Realm—but it was formidable.Zheng——Suddenly, Wu Qu Xingjun felt as if an invisible mountain had descended upon him, its weight pressing him downward with unstoppable force.For the first time, the Star Lord clenched his fists and activated his divine energy to resist.It was no longer something that could be handled by strength alone.At the same time, the disturbance caused by this clash of powers drew the attention of thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals training nearby.The instant Leo's triple-eye technique flared and he attacked Wu Qu Xingjun, soldiers from every direction ceased their drills and gathered to watch.Soon, the plain where they stood—an ancient time-space training ground—was surrounded by thousands of soldiers observing the battle unfold.When they sensed that Leo's cultivation was only around the Earth Immortal level—yet his divine eye powers forced Wu Qu Xingjun to react—they were shocked.It was simply unbelievable.The heavenly soldiers and generals exchanged looks of disbelief. None could remember a time when someone of such a low realm had managed to force a God of War to use divine techniques to defend himself.After a few moments, Wu Qu Xingjun activated his divine technique in earnest.Leo immediately felt the tide turn.The overwhelming force he had been channeling was being dispersed. His pupil powers, though strong, were being nullified one layer at a time.Realizing this, Leo gradually withdrew his power, stopping the flow of both spiritual energy and ocular might.Although Leo couldn't determine Wu Qu Xingjun's exact cultivation level, he estimated that it was beyond the Xuanxian Realm—perhaps even reaching the Golden Immortal Realm.He was almost certain, however, that Wu Qu Xingjun wasn't at the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal. His system had made it clear: this wasn't the true universe of the classical "prehistoric novels."In this world's Heavenly Court, there was only one person at the Taiyi Realm:[Erlang Shen · Yang Jian].So regardless of Wu Qu Xingjun's strength, it couldn't surpass the Golden Immortal level.…"You're a remarkable young man!"Wu Qu Xingjun looked at Leo with admiration."Your cultivation is merely at the Earth Immortal or Heavenly General level, yet your combat power rivals that of a seasoned celestial general!""Good. Very good!"Zheng——Then, the Star Lord raised his arm and waved toward Leo.A brilliant divine light enveloped Leo's body.The next moment—Leo's black robe transformed into shining silver armor, the standard gear of a heavenly general. A silver-plated helmet now crowned his head, and a flowing cape representing his elevated rank fluttered behind him."And this!"Whoosh—!Another flick of Wu Qu Xingjun's hand sent a gleaming silver object flying toward Leo.Leo calmly reached out and caught it.It was a silver spear, the signature weapon of a heavenly general—alongside a finely crafted identity token.It read:> [Shenwu Camp · Heavenly General · Leo]This was it.Wu Qu Xingjun had personally bestowed Leo with official identity and rank in the Heavenly Realm.He was no longer a rogue soul or an undocumented ascendant.Though his starting point was modest—a general with command over just a hundred heavenly soldiers—Leo smiled with satisfaction.This was just the beginning.A single step forward was enough.In the future, he would give this heaven… no, he would shake the very foundations of this world and the so-called Three Realms.…"God rewards the diligent," Wu Qu Xingjun said, stepping forward and patting Leo on the shoulder once more. "Don't let me down."Leo looked at the Star Lord and finally clasped his fists politely."Thank you, Star Lord.""Hahaha, wonderful!" Wu Qu Xingjun roared with laughter."Excellent!"From all directions came loud cheers.Thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals were applauding.They had witnessed it firsthand—Leo, a newly ascended immortal, had managed to make the God of War take him seriously. His strength, boldness, and potential had earned their respect."Zhang Kuo," Wu Qu Xingjun suddenly called out, turning to the general beside Leo."You've done a good job. From now on, you will join my Shenwu Camp as one of my generals!"Zhang Kuo froze in place for a moment. Then, an expression of immense joy appeared on his face. He quickly bowed and said loudly:"Heavenly General Zhang Kuo, thanks Lord Xingjun for your kindness!!"
