Grassroots Travel: The Star Lord of Another World

Gao Xingchen walked to his and Nanli's courtyard, only to see Nanli sitting cross-legged under a tree practicing. When she saw Gao Xingchen coming back, she slowly opened her eyes and smiled faintly, "You're back?"

"Yeah." Gao Xingchen walked to the stone table, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Nan Li, "Is it done?"

Nan Li took the teacup, took a sip, and nodded, "It's already been arranged. Just focus on your cultivation, and don't worry about other things."

Gao Xingchen knew that the "other things" that Nan Li mentioned were the fact that his cultivation was abolished. Although he pretended not to care on the surface, he was still holding his breath in his heart. He swore that one day, he would wash away the shame with his own hands and make those who had bullied him pay the price!

With Nan Li's help, Gao Xingchen's cultivation recovered very quickly. In just a few days, he had recovered to the sixth level of the Gathering Star Realm.

That day, Gao Xingchen was practicing when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Junior Brother Gao, are you there?" It was the voice of Senior Brother Sun.

"Senior Brother Sun, Senior Sister Li, please come in." Gao Xingchen opened the door and welcomed the two in.

"Junior Brother Gao, I heard that you have recovered your cultivation. Congratulations!" Senior Brother Sun smiled and cupped his hands.

"Yes, Junior Brother Gao, we are all waiting for you to return to the top!" Senior Sister Li also said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kind words, senior brothers and sisters." Gao Xingchen said modestly, "Junior brother has only recovered a little bit of his cultivation by luck, but he is still far from the peak."

"Haha, Junior Brother Gao, don't underestimate yourself." Senior Brother Sun patted Gao Xingchen on the shoulder, "With your talent, your future will definitely be limitless. By the way, we came here this time to tell you a good news. Next month, the sect will hold a martial arts competition for new disciples. You must prepare well!"

Gao Xingchen's eyes flashed when he heard this. He knew that the opportunity had come...

Gao Xingchen's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and his blood seemed to be ignited. The martial arts competition was not only a stage to show his strength, but also a chance for him to prove himself! "Thank you for telling me, senior brothers and sisters. I will definitely go all out!" He said firmly, with a confident look in his eyes.

Senior Brother Sun and Senior Sister Li smiled at each other. They were very satisfied with Gao Xingchen's reaction. "Okay! We believe you!"

In the next month, Gao Xingchen put all his energy into cultivation. He practiced hard day and night, constantly honing his martial arts and improving his cultivation. Nan Li silently guarded him by his side, protecting him and occasionally giving him some pointers.

The martial arts competition came as scheduled, and the whole sect was filled with a tense and exciting atmosphere. Gao Xingchen defeated his opponents one after another with his exquisite moves and powerful strength, and finally stood on the final stage.

His opponent was a leader among the beginners, and his strength should not be underestimated. However, Gao Xingchen was not afraid. He remained calm and engaged in a fierce competition with his opponent. In the end, he won the final victory with his firm will and extraordinary talent!

The crowd erupted in thunderous cheers, and Gao Xingchen's name resounded throughout the square. He stood on the stage, feeling the glory of the winner, his heart filled with pride and joy. Offstage, Zhao Gang and others' faces were livid. They had never thought that Gao Xingchen, whom they had once regarded as a waste, could achieve such success.

Nan Li looked at the high-spirited young man on the stage, with a gratified smile on her lips. She knew that Gao Xingchen's future was bright, and he would eventually become a strong man in this star field!

However, fate is always full of twists and turns.

One day, Nan Li was ambushed by a powerful enemy while carrying out a secret mission and was seriously injured. Gao Xingchen was extremely anxious when he heard the news and immediately rushed to Nan Li's side.

He looked at Nan Li lying on the bed with a pale face and a weak breath, and his heart was broken. He carefully treated her wounds and stayed by her side.

"Silly boy, I'm fine, I won't die..." Nan Li smiled weakly, wanting to comfort Gao Xingchen, but her wound was affected and she couldn't help coughing lightly a few times.

"Don't talk, have a good rest." Gao Xingchen held her hand, his eyes gentle but firm, "I will definitely heal you."

Under Gao Xingchen's careful care, Nan Li's injuries gradually improved, and the two's feelings gradually warmed up during the days they spent together.

The elders decided to hold a celebration party for Gao Xingchen's outstanding performance in the martial arts competition and invited all the disciples in the sect to attend. Everyone was looking forward to what kind of interaction Gao Xingchen and Nan Li, the golden boy and girl, would have at the party...

At the lively celebration party, there were lights and decorations, and laughter and joy. Gao Xingchen was wearing a simple white shirt, which made him look tall and handsome, while Nan Li was wearing a lavender dress, which made her cold temperament look gentler.

The two stood side by side, like a perfect couple, attracting countless envious glances. Senior Brother Sun and Senior Sister Li walked over to them with wine glasses in hand, their faces full of gratified smiles.

"Xingchen, you really shined in this martial arts competition! Even I didn't expect you to win the championship." Senior Brother Sun laughed heartily and raised his glass, "Come on, senior brother, let me toast you!"

Gao Xingchen quickly raised his glass in response, "Brother, you are too kind. I am still far from being as good as you. I will have to learn a lot from you in the future."

Senior Sister Li also smiled and said, "Yes, Xingchen, you are extremely talented and willing to work hard. In time, you will become the pillar of our Xuanfeng Sect!"

"Senior sister is right, Xingchen, you must work hard!" Nanli on the side also said softly, her eyes full of encouragement and expectation.

Gao Xingchen looked at Nan Li's gentle eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He nodded solemnly, "I will!"

After the party, Elder Zhang called Gao Xingchen to his study room alone and said earnestly, "Xingchen, your talent and perseverance have impressed me. I have decided to list you as a key training target. I will teach you everything I have learned in my life. I hope you can live up to everyone's expectations and become a strong man who can stand on your own as soon as possible!"

Gao Xingchen was extremely excited. He knew very well how precious this opportunity was. He immediately knelt on one knee and said firmly: "Disciple will do his best to live up to the high expectations of the elders!"

From then on, Gao Xingchen practiced harder, and he eagerly absorbed the knowledge and experience taught by Elder Zhang, and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. Nanli also stayed by his side, protecting him and answering his questions, and the relationship between the two became deeper and deeper.

However, the gears of fate never seem to run according to the established trajectory.

On a full moon night, Gao Xingchen was practicing in the back mountain as usual. He circulated the star power in his body, trying to break through the bottleneck. Suddenly, he felt a powerful force surging from the ground, wrapping him up.

Gao Xingchen was shocked. Before he could react, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes and lost consciousness.

When he woke up again, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar place. It was desolate all around, with only an ancient stone platform emitting a faint light.

Gao Xingchen walked to the stone platform and found that it was engraved with dense runes. He had never seen these runes before, but he inexplicably felt a familiar aura.

At this moment, the runes on the stone platform suddenly lit up, and a beam of light shot up into the sky, forming a mysterious teleportation array in mid-air.

Gao Xingchen looked at the teleportation array in front of him, his heart full of doubts and curiosity. Where does this teleportation array lead to? Why is it here? Could all this be related to his traveling to this world?

Countless questions swirled in Gao Xingchen's mind. He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to step onto the stone platform and walk into the beam of light.

He knew that this might be a road full of unknowns and dangers, but the desire to explore the unknown in his heart drove him to keep moving forward.
