Chapter 19: Spirit Purifying

On the total leaderboard.

At the very top.

Jiang Jian, Level 3 'Art', Spirit-Purifying True Fire.

On his name, brilliant golden light circled!

Countless gazes focused here!

For hundreds of years.

Guangling City had never had a Level 3 'Art'!

Although Level 3 talents appeared once or twice every ten-plus years.

But a Level 3 'Art' was the first time in history!

"Did I see that wrong..."

"Jiang Jian, Level 3 'Art'..."

"Total score 100 points, perfect score..."

At the edge of the Flying Light Terrace, Zhou Yu raised his head blankly, his face full of disbelief.

Beside him.

Teachers from Guangling No. 1 High School had long since gathered around, their faces full of ecstasy.

"Teacher Zhou Yu!"

"You've made it big by teaching a student like Jiang Jian!"

"Our Guangling No. 1 High School has made it big!"

Boom!

The next moment, a luxurious flying shuttle landed heavily!

Two people dressed in luxury walked off the flying shuttle and asked: "Who is Teacher Zhou Yu?"

Zhou Yu forced himself to come back to his senses, his eyes still filled with shock: "I am Zhou Yu, who are you?"

The leader handed over a red envelope and smiled.

"Teacher Zhou Yu, a small token of respect, please don't mind."

Zhou Yu took it subconsciously and opened the red envelope.

"Ten thousand Alliance coins!"

Zhou Yu exclaimed, almost unable to hold the check in his hand steadily.

This kind of check was issued by Linjiang Prefecture.

As long as you scanned it lightly with an identity device, you could obtain Alliance coins equal to the face value of the check.

"This is just a small token."

The person looked around and walked closer, "Teacher Zhou Yu, I am from the Luoying Academy admissions office."

"As long as you can persuade Jiang Jian to apply for Luoying Academy, I will offer another thirty thousand Alliance coins!"

Hearing this.

Zhou Yu's fingers holding the check trembled even more.

On his face, hesitation also appeared.

A few seconds later.

The hesitation on Zhou Yu's face disappeared, he handed the check back, and his eyes became firm.

"Jiang Jian is my student! He should have his own ideas about which school to apply to! I will not interfere!"

The admissions office personnel's expression sank: "Are you saying you don't want the shiny Alliance coins?"

Zhou Yu smiled and said: "Of course I want them!"

His voice became louder, attracting the teachers from Guangling No. 1 High School not far away.

"But I, Zhou Yu, do things upright and honestly!"

"If your Luoying Academy truly has merits and has enough resource allocation for Jiang Jian."

"Then even if I don't take a single cent, I will persuade Jiang Jian to apply for Luoying Academy!"

Zhou Yu's expression was stern, "My starting point has always been my student!"

The admissions office personnel were sharp, and after their expression changed, they hurriedly put away the check and changed their attitude.

"Teacher Zhou Yu, rest assured, for a Level 3 'Art' talent, my Luoying Academy certainly has massive resource allocation!"

He raised his identity device, showing a document, his expression self-satisfied.

"Luoying Academy will apply for a special resource subsidy from the Linjiang Prefecture Government for Jiang Jian!"

"With Luoying Academy's endorsement, this resource package can even reach Level 3!"

Zhou Yu was just a teacher in Guangling City and obviously didn't understand these things, asking: "Level 3 resource package, what is inside?"

The admissions office personnel smiled: "Level 3 resource package, the cultivation spirit materials inside are truly unimaginable!"

"First, it is a cultivation quota worth twenty thousand Alliance coins on the Linjiang Prefecture platform!"

"Secondly, it is 10 portions each of cultivation spirit materials, array spirit materials, weapon casting materials, and spirit medicine quotas!"

"Most importantly, it is a Level 3 talent light orb worth one million Alliance coins!"

The admissions office personnel opened the Linjiang Prefecture trading platform and pointed to the screen.

"Teacher Zhou Yu, see for yourself! A Level 3 talent light orb, even the cheapest 'Body', costs one million Alliance coins!"

Zhou Yu looked hesitant and hadn't spoken yet.

A disdainful voice came over: "Stop lying! A Level 3 'Art', no matter which God-Given university they go to, can get a Level 3 resource package!"

Hearing this.

The admissions office personnel's expression changed immediately.

Several flying shuttles landed one after another.

Admissions office personnel from other God-Given universities were actually all walking toward Zhou Yu!

Zhou Yu here was overwhelmed.

And on the high ceremony platform.

The light remaining around Jiang Jian had barely dissipated!

"Level 3, Art, Spirit-Purifying True Fire."

Jiang Jian lowered his gaze, looking at his pale palms.

As his thoughts moved.

Wisps of blood-red flames spat out between his fingers.

Sizzle!

Even the air was burned, making a sound!

"This kind of power..."

At this very moment.

Jiang Jian already knew the cultivation method that came with the Spirit-Purifying True Fire.

"Spirit-Purifying True Method".

This fire presented a blinding blood-red color.

Once it burned a living being, it could quickly spread through the whole body, swallowing their soul.

In just a few seconds.

It could burn a living being's soul into ashes.

And "Spirit-Purifying True Method" was the basic cultivation method.

Everyone's God-Given talent was different, and the methods used for cultivation were also different.

Some God-Given talents carried cultivation methods themselves.

Some God-Given talents had nothing at all.

They could only rely on the cultivation method of the second talent to accelerate cultivation.

Art was a talent that must carry a cultivation method.

Even a Level 1 'Art' was like this.

"The Qi cultivated by Spirit-Purifying True Method."

"Is called Spirit Qi."

Jiang Jian calmed his mind and observed the "Spirit-Purifying True Method" carefully.

"Native talent Spirit-Purifying True Fire is my native talent."

"To drive it."

"Only a little Spirit Qi is needed to use it for a long time."

"But my Shenque acupoint has already been opened, and if I put a talent light orb in it, I can have a second talent."

"Driving a second talent requires a lot of Spirit Qi!"

"Spirit Qi has an upper limit."

"The upper limit of Spirit Qi increases very slowly!"

"I must cultivate the upper limit of Spirit Qi to the point of filling the Shenque acupoint."

"Only then can I step into the next realm!"

Jiang Jian's brows furrowed slightly.

Because he had already observed the Shenque acupoint just now.

If he wanted to cultivate the Shenque acupoint to perfection, he needed ten parts of Spirit Qi upper limit.

Then compared to that, his current Spirit Qi upper limit.

Was not even one percent!

"Native talent Spirit-Purifying True Fire only needs a wisp of Spirit Qi to drive."

"But to drive a second talent, I'm afraid this Spirit Qi would be exhausted in a few minutes!"

Cultivation was too difficult.

Just cultivating one "Shenque acupoint".

Was enough to trap 99 percent of the people in this world.

This was also the reason why those cultivation spirit materials were extremely expensive.

Arrays could accelerate cultivation speed.

Spirit medicines could improve cultivation efficiency.

Hand-refining spirit materials and casting weapons could improve the proficiency of using Spirit Qi and the precision of controlling Spirit Qi.

These all helped to increase the upper limit of Spirit Qi.

But these also required massive amounts of Alliance coins!

"3227, Guangling City God-Given Grand Exam, total ranking is fixed!"

The proctor's voice spread across the Flying Light Terrace!

The giant leaderboard spanning the sky shook suddenly!

The tens of thousands of names on it disappeared at a terrifying speed!

In less than half a minute.

These tens of thousands of names dimmed completely.

Turning into scattered light flows, merging into the Flying Light Terrace array!

In the end.

On the total leaderboard.

Only 46 dazzling names remained, with light flowing and shining brightly!

"Rank 1, Jiang Jian, 100 points!"

"Rank 2, Du Fang, 99 points!"

"Rank 3, Song Ling, 98 points!"

"Rank 4, Gong Shuangshuang, 95 points!"

"Rank 5, Xu Mu, 93 points!"

"Rank 6, Zhao Chen, 88 points!"

"Rank 31, Wang Wu, 82 points!"

"Rank 32, Jiang Zhao, 82 points!"

"Rank 33, Wen Ying, 81 points!"

"Rank 46, Ji Ming, 76 points!"

"Guangling City, 46 God-Given University spots, all fixed!"

As the array's sound roared.

The teachers of the examination board, as well as the several proctors from the God-Given University, all landed on the high ceremony platform!

Ji Ming squeezed through the crowd, came under the high ceremony platform, reached out to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, his figure trembling.

"So damn close!"

"The last spot, crawled into the God-Given University!"

"This Level 2 'Body' really saved my life!"

Ji Ming was incomparably fortunate in his heart, his limbs weak, and he braced himself to climb onto the high platform.

At the same time.

46 students walked back onto the high ceremony platform one after another!

Except for Jiang Jian, Du Fang, and Song Ling.

The other 43 students were mostly Level 2 talents!

On the Anhezhou forum.

The live broadcast of the Guangling God-Given Grand Exam was still ongoing!

Because next was the key link of choosing a school!

"Jiang Jian, which school are you going to?"

At the brightest spot on the ceremony platform, Du Fang walked over and asked in a low voice.

Unknowingly.

Song Ling also leaned over.

The three of them stood together vaguely.

The other 43 students were all extremely conscious and did not approach.

A small circle had formed.

Level 3 talent, the things represented behind it were too many.
