Chapter 021: Not Bad

Early morning.

Sunlight streamed through the window and fell on Wang Bo's face. Wang Bo opened his eyes but did not see the scene of fine dust dancing in the beams of light, mainly because he had set up a barrier in the house.

All fine dust was thoroughly filtered, and the air in the house was incredibly fresh.

Wang Bo looked to his left and saw Xiao Bai with her flowing long hair; he turned his head to the right and saw Xiao Qing, cold and beautiful yet tinged with a hint of shyness.

But because they had been up late the night before, the two women were still fast asleep, with no signs of waking.

Wang Bo moved his body, silently left the bed, and appeared at the bedside. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he had already changed into a dry white robe and put on a pair of black cloth boots.

He pushed open the door, walked out of the room, stood in the courtyard, looked up at the rising sun, opened his mouth, and inhaled.

A purple qi descended from the sky and drilled into Wang Bo's mouth.

Wang Bo smacked his lips a few times and merged it into his solar true qi.

Then, Wang Bo stretched, and his bones emitted a series of crisp crackling sounds.

A new day had begun again.

While enjoying breakfast, Wang Bo took out his diary and calculated that he had been in this world for quite a while, probably about half a year.

In this half year, he had collected many cultivation techniques, even integrating the Heart Sutra of the Great Sun Tathagata into his Solar Divine Art, elevating his Solar Divine Art to a higher level.

Now, he should probably find the transmigrator and go to the next world.

But Wang Bo was somewhat reluctant to leave. After all, this world was so peaceful. Although occasionally demons caused trouble, there were exorcists to vanquish them. It was a world very suitable for him to live in.

Wang Bo had lived here for half a year and not only did he not find it boring, but he felt that such an ordinary life was simply wonderful.

He had become addicted and wanted to stay in this world for a long time.

In that case, why bother looking for the transmigrator? Wasn't a peaceful life good enough?

Thinking this, Wang Bo couldn't help but put away his diary again. Well... he would talk about it after living in this world for another eight or ten years.

After breakfast, Wang Bo passed through the World Gate and arrived in the Saint Seiya world.

He had left Shizuka Hiiragi in this world to learn the Cosmo from Milo for some time, so Wang Bo planned to check on how Shizuka Hiiragi was doing today.

As soon as Wang Bo entered the Scorpio Temple, he saw Shizuka Hiiragi fiercely attacking a man who was unnaturally handsome.

The man wore a magnificent armor and wielded a chain, effortlessly blocking all of Shizuka Hiiragi's attacks.

Milo stood on the throne of the Scorpio Temple, looking down at the battle between the two.

As soon as Wang Bo entered, he caught Milo's attention.

Shizuka Hiiragi and the unnaturally handsome man also noticed Wang Bo, but Milo snorted coldly and said, "Continue."

The two then clashed again.

Of course, calling it a clash was more like guidance. The man in armor, unnaturally handsome, was clearly a Saint, summoned by Milo to guide Shizuka Hiiragi in combat.

Wang Bo bypassed the two who were fighting fiercely, walked up to Milo, and asked, "Who is that?"

"He's a Bronze Saint, apparently the Saint of Andromeda."

Seeing that the Saint was so beautiful and wielded a chain, Wang Bo had a premonition. It was indeed one of the five main protagonists among the Saints—Shun of Andromeda.

Wang Bo was not surprised that he appeared in the Sanctuary.

After all, Athena had returned to the Sanctuary, and as the Saints protecting Athena, the five main protagonists naturally had to work within the Sanctuary.

Wang Bo was just a little surprised that Milo would have Shun serve as Shizuka Hiiragi's sparring partner.

"How did you get to know the Saint of Andromeda?"

Milo said calmly, "I saw him while patrolling the Sanctuary today, so I called him over to be Hiiragi's sparring partner."

Wang Bo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "So, you just grabbed a random person, right?"

Milo said, "Is there a problem?"

"Nothing at all." Wang Bo shook his head. "How is Shizuka doing lately?"

"Not bad. She works hard." Milo said lightly.

Wang Bo understood. "'Works hard' means she doesn't have much talent, right?"

Milo did not mince words and bluntly pointed out Shizuka Hiiragi's shortcomings. "With her talent, the Silver Saint is her limit. There's no way she can become a Gold Saint."

Wang Bo did not insist. "Silver is not bad either."

Don't be fooled by the plot where the Gold Saints seem to be sidelined and only the five main protagonists save Athena. In reality, the Gold Saints are the ultimate power of the Sanctuary.

Everyone who becomes a Gold Saint is a gifted expert.

Like Shaka, who can converse with the Buddha, or like Regulus, who possesses a powerful combat instinct and can master the Cosmo as easily as breathing, or those who grow through battle.

Ordinary people do not have the qualifications to become Gold Saints.

Over the centuries, the Gold Saints have not always been at full strength. In fact, many times the twelve Gold Saints have been incomplete.

Take the Saint of Sagittarius, for example.

Since disappearing over a decade ago, the Sagittarius position had been vacant, and no Saint in the Sanctuary could take over Sagittarius.

Of course, this was also related to the disappearance of the Sagittarius Cloth.

But now that Athena had returned, the Sagittarius Cloth had also returned, yet the Sagittarius Temple of the twelve Zodiac Temples still had no occupant.

Besides that, there was also the Gemini Temple.

If the reason no one inherited Sagittarius was because the Gold Cloth had disappeared, then Saga's feigning death left Gemini vacant, and for over a decade, no one had been able to occupy the Gemini Temple.

This proved that not just anyone could become a Gold Saint; most who could become Gold Saints were geniuses among geniuses.

Even though Shizuka Hiiragi had good talent, Wang Bo did not think she could become a Gold Saint.

Achieving the rank of Silver Saint was already very good.

The reason Milo said "not bad" was because she herself was a Gold Saint, so in her eyes, being able to become a Silver Saint could only be described as "not bad."

In reality, this "not bad" was already a remarkable achievement in the Sanctuary.

There were countless people who trained in the Sanctuary for several years, not only failing to grasp the Cosmo but also exhausting themselves with injuries. Not everyone could smoothly grow into a Saint.

Most people were ordinary individuals who hadn't even mastered the Cosmo.

They couldn't even be considered Saint candidates.

But in Milo's eyes, this "not bad" was too ordinary, after all, she was a genius who became a Gold Saint at a young age.

If not for Wang Bo's request, Shizuka Hiiragi wouldn't have had the qualifications to become her disciple.
