Chapter 199 - Shaking the Four Directions

Translator: CinderTL

Rumble!

Four pillars of white-gold light radiated boundless, immeasurable energy.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Students and faculty alike converged on the central plaza from all corners of White Dragon University.

Heaven-Tier Inheritances had never manifested more than three light pillars. First-Tier Civilization Inheritances triggered entirely different phenomena, not simply an increase in the number of pillars.

Four pillars? Such a spectacle had never been witnessed before.

The astonishing anomaly drew ever-growing attention.

"Who's inside the White Dragon's Court?"

"I heard it's someone named Jiang Ye, a visiting student from Penglai University."

"Penglai University? No way!" Jiang Ye's name spread like wildfire across the plaza, igniting a fresh wave of commotion.

The source of this extraordinary phenomenon wasn't even a White Dragon University student, but a visiting student from Penglai University?

"I'll have to see for myself what kind of person this Jiang Ye is."

"Four white-gold pillars? Nothing like this has ever happened in White Dragon University's history."

"Unbelievable."

"Does this Jiang Ye have three heads and six arms?" Many teachers were discussing the name "Jiang Ye" with growing interest.

Earlier, not all teachers had been paying attention to the White Dragon's Court. Since no Upper A-tier students were participating this time, the number of teachers watching was relatively small.

High-ranking professors like Qiu Cang wouldn't normally bother to monitor such events. Qiu Cang's interest was primarily due to Jiang Ye.

For most other senior instructors and professors, this was the first time they had even heard Jiang Ye's name.

Just then, a thunderous roar shook the air.

"Look! The gates are opening!"

"He's finally coming out!"

With a majestic rumble, the gates of the White Dragon's Court slowly swung open.

The entire plaza fell silent as every gaze turned toward the entrance.

Beside Qiu Cang, Chen Zilu, clad in silver-white battle armor, watched intently.

In the next moment, her eyes lit up.

A figure slowly emerged from the gate.

It was a tall, slender silhouette enveloped in blinding light, obscuring its features.

As he slowly emerged, the light faded, revealing an exceptionally handsome young man. His eyes shone like stars, his nose was high and straight, and his face was as smooth as jade, his aura as deep and steady as an abyss.

Bathed in a faint white-gold light, the young man stood in mid-air, gripping a black spear. For a moment, he exuded an almost divine and transcendent aura.

"This guy's so handsome?!"

"Too handsome! I'd probably need to shower to stand a chance against him."

"Damn it! Is my title as the East Sea's most handsome man about to be stolen?"

"While I admit he's handsome, shouldn't we be focusing on the inheritance?"

The majority of students, upon seeing Jiang Ye for the first time, weren't discussing the inheritance itself, but rather his appearance.

The reason was simple:

Jiang Ye's looks were simply too striking.

Of course, mere good looks wouldn't have mattered much. But Jiang Ye had triggered the unprecedented phenomenon of four pillars of light.

Combined with the fact that he was an exchange student from Penglai University,

these factors layered together,

shrouding Jiang Ye in an aura of 'mystery' in the eyes of the crowd.

Naturally, this made his appearance all the more captivating.

"What's going on?"

Jiang Ye was utterly bewildered. He hadn't expected to see so many people waiting for him when he emerged.

"Senior Bai Gui," he mentally called out, "are you sure you've shielded the Third-Tier Civilization Inheritance phenomenon?"

This was a critical matter. If the Third-Tier Civilization Inheritance phenomenon were to manifest, it could attract the attention of the Cangxu Civilization, as Bai Gui had warned. Such an event would plunge Blue Star into an unprecedented crisis.

"Relax, this isn't the Third-Tier Civilization phenomenon," a cool, clear voice echoed in Jiang Ye's mind. "A Heaven-Tier High-Grade Inheritance typically only produces three pillars of light. But since you obtained two inheritances, four appeared."

"I see," Jiang Ye murmured, relieved.

As long as it wasn't the Third-Tier Civilization phenomenon, he could breathe easy.

Yet when he glanced at the plaza ahead, he couldn't help but feel a jolt of surprise.

[Physique: Profound Physique (Upper A-tier)]

[Innate Talent: Dao Bone]

[Physique: Profound Physique (Upper A-tier)]

[Innate Talent: Dao Bone]

[Physique: Profound Physique (Upper A-tier)]

[Innate Talent: Dao Bone]

A quick scan revealed multiple Upper A-tier profound physique geniuses with Dao Bone aptitude!

"Could it be," Jiang Ye speculated inwardly, "that this phenomenon is exceptionally rare at White Dragon University?"

An Upper A-tier profound physique represented the pinnacle of Dao Bone Aptitude—the most formidable geniuses. Without the intervention of transcendents, they stood as the most dazzling Heavenly Prides in the world!

On the plaza, Jiang Ye counted at least a hundred figures.

Though none exuded any visible aura, each radiated an immeasurable presence, like a mayfly gazing up at the cosmos, unable to comprehend its vastness.

Yet now, every one of them stared intently at Jiang Ye, as if he were some kind of monster.

"Just keep walking," Bai Gui advised in his mind. "They're only drawn here by your anomaly."

"I know," Jiang Ye nodded.

Suddenly, his gaze shifted.

Whoosh! Jiang Ye shot off in a specific direction.

Swish, swish, swish—

A hundred pairs of eyes followed his every move.

Within seconds, Jiang Ye transformed into a streak of Flowing Light, landing before Qiu Cang.

"Hmm?" Jiang Ye glanced at the silver-armored girl beside Qiu Cang, a flicker of familiarity stirring within him.

But his attention quickly returned to Qiu Cang.

"Teacher," Jiang Ye said, cupping his hands in a respectful bow, "I have fulfilled my mission!"

The entire plaza seemed to fall silent.

Every eye turned toward them.

Qiu Cang appeared to relish the spotlight.

He stroked his beard with a smile, chuckling, "Jiang Ye, you obtained the inheritance?"

"Yes."

"Student..." Jiang Ye hesitated, then confessed, "I obtained two Heaven-Tier High-Grade Inheritances."

Buzz!

The vast plaza instantly fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone, including the teachers, stared at Jiang Ye with strange expressions.

Several seconds passed.

"Two? Heaven-Rank High-Grade?"

"This... this can't be right, can it?"

"The White Dragon's Court only allows one inheritance per visit, doesn't it? How did he get two?"

"How did he manage that?" A wave of commotion erupted among the crowd.

Some B-tier students, like Tang Wuji, gaped in shock.

They considered themselves lucky to obtain even a High-Grade Earth-Rank Inheritance each time they entered the White Dragon's Court.

But Jiang Ye?

He had obtained not one, but two Heaven-Rank High-Grade Inheritances?

Even cheating couldn't achieve that!

"Hmm, not bad."

Qiu Cang remained calm, smiling faintly. "It's too crowded here. Let's go somewhere else to talk."

With that, he moved to lead Jiang Ye away.

"Hahahaha!"

A thunderous roar echoed from the sky.

All heads snapped upward to see a blinding flash of lightning.

A radiant figure, accompanied by a fierce gust of wind, descended with a deafening crash.

Whoosh!

Crimson hair billowed like a tidal wave, and an overwhelming aura swept across the entire plaza.

"As expected of my disciple, Zhu Honglie!"

"Jiang Ye, well done!"

A booming voice, loud enough to shake the entire White Dragon University, reverberated through the air.
