"A red light! He’s comprehended the technique 70 percent now! And it’s been only a few hours since he comprehended 50 percent! Just how ridiculously talented is this guy?! He puts ’fast learners’ to shame with his learning speed!" Xue Jiye could no longer contain her voice and mumbled in a shocked voice.
’I wonder what it looks like in the spectators’ room right now... How are the sect elders reacting to this young man?’ Xue Jiye pondered to herself.
Meanwhile, in the spectators’ room, everybody there turned to look at Elder Xuan with a profound expression on their faces, thinking to themselves how Elder Xuan will most likely win this gamble and obtain 20 years’ worth of contribution points in a single bet.
Back inside Yuan’s mind, he continued watching the Dragon obliterate 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, Yuan’s eyes suddenly turned golden, resembling that of the Dragon’s eyes.
When the Dragon noticed the change in Yuan’s eyes, it was inwardly shocked by Yuan’s progress.
’This human has already comprehended the Dragon’s Gaze to such an extent?! It’s only been a week since we started!’ The Dragon cried inwardly. ’At this rate, I will really lose the bet! To think I, the Great One, would lose to a mere human! Even if it’s only something as minor as losing a bet, it’s still more than enough for me to lose face! Luckily for me, we are alone here and I am only an illusion, or the other Divine Beasts would surely turn me into a laughing stock!’
"Why did you stop? Are you tired?" Yuan asked the Dragon when it suddenly stopped using the Dragon’s Gaze to destroy planets, forcing him out of his trance and halting his progress briefly.
"No... I am fine. I am only a mere illusion so I cannot experience exhaustion. Let’s continue."
The Dragon continued shooting invisible beams from its massive eyes that seemed larger than the planets it was destroying a moment later, and Yuan returned to staring at the scene with a dazed expression on his face.

After watching for a few more hours, Yuan suddenly closed his eyes, yet he could still somehow see the planets being destroyed by the Dragon.
’Enlightenment! This human has entered the state of enlightenment!’ The Dragon realized why Yuan suddenly closed his eyes, yet it did not stop destroying stars.
Meanwhile, in the examination room, the Tablet of Comprehension began changing colors again.
The red light grew darker and darker, until it was no longer red and completely pitch black, resembling the void.
"80 percent?! He’d just reached 70 percent an hour ago! Why did his progress suddenly increase so exponentially?!" Xue Jiye covered her mouth from shock.
Even the sect elders in the spectators’ room were puzzled by Yuan’s results.
"This... Could this be enlightenment?" One of the sect elders asked in a weird tone, sounding as though he was doubting himself. However, Yuan experiencing enlightenment was the only logical explanation for the sudden change.
Of course, enlightenments are incredibly rare moments that most Cultivators can live even their entire life without experiencing it a single time.
Meanwhile, Yuan was already experiencing his second enlightenment. If the sect elders knew this, they would literally lose their minds, as none of them have experienced the state of enlightenment yet.
A few more hours passed inside Yuan’s mind, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
The second Yuan opened his eyes, a profound ripple appeared around him and spread throughout the endless void, and his golden eyes were glowing brighter than ever before.
A notification also appeared before him a moment later.
«You have learned ’Dragon’s Gaze’!»
«Rank: Ancient»
«Mastery Level: 1»
«Description: A technique created by the ’Great One’. A single gaze will cause Immortals to bow and the Heavens to tremble in fear!»
’Ancient-rank?’ Yuan raised an eyebrow at this unfamiliar rank.
Meanwhile, in the outside world, an announcement appeared for all Players to witness.
«Player Yuan has become the world’s first Player to have learned an Ancient-rank skill! Congratulations!»
This announcement dumbfounded and shocked every player in every location across the world.
The players were dumbfounded because they have never heard of an ’Ancient-rank’ skill before until today and shocked because Player Yuan made yet another appearance.
Meanwhile, inside the Dragon Essence Temple, the sect elders within the spectators’ room were shaking from excitement when the Tablet of Comprehension suddenly changed colors, turning into a beautiful and majestic golden light!
"He did it! 90 percent comprehension! He has reached the Founder’s results! And he did it in less than one day!" The sect elders rejoiced as though they were watching their own child.
"Just 10 more percent and he’ll make history... However, overcoming these last 10 percent is like trying to reach the heavens; it won’t be easy at all, and it’ll probably be even harder to achieve than the previous 90 percent..." Long Yijun mumbled with a serious expression on his face.
"Well, he still has six more days to comprehend the last 10 percent. Even if he doesn’t, he’s already surpassed the Founder in terms of cultivation talent and comprehension skills. We must nurture this young man and spare no expense on him no matter what," Elder Xuan spoke with a profound expression on his face.
Back inside Yuan’s mind, the Dragon stared at Yuan with a baffled gaze.
"3,000... You have managed to learn Dragon’s Gaze after watching it less than 3,000 times. Compared to the previous human, you are... No, it would be disrespectful to you if I were to compare you to someone who needed years of effort to learn the technique while you did it in less than a week inside this space."
"How strong is an Ancient-rank technique?" Yuan asked the Dragon afterward.
"The Ancient-rank is one rank above the Divine-rank." The Dragon responded, and it continued, "However, even though it’s only one rank higher, it’s countless times stronger than any Divine-rank technique out there."
