Chapter 1181: Registered Name

"The Heaven Mirror Tower is the core of the Academy Alliance; numerous academies, whether Ancient Academies or Holy Academies, regard this place as a sacred land in their hearts."

"Those who pass the Heaven Mirror Tower's trial will be bestowed the title of 'Heaven Mirror Scholar.' Today, many of the King-level experts within the Academy Alliance were once 'Heaven Mirror Scholars'."

"Even throughout the long history of the Heaven Mirror Tower's establishment, the Heaven Mirror Scholars produced the Light King."

"Jiang Jiang Qinge, you possess peerless talent; if you go to the Heaven Mirror Tower, it will surely provide immense assistance to your peerless path."

Zhen Mingyu's voice rang out, her gaze filled with expectation as she looked at Jiang Jiang Qinge.

Li Luo, standing nearby, had wanted to say something, but ultimately fell silent. Although he very much wanted Jiang Jiang Qinge to return to the Dragon Tooth Pulse with him, just as Zhen Mingyu said, the Heaven Mirror Tower was also a great opportunity, which would be of great benefit to Jiang Jiang Qinge.

Therefore, Li Luo did not wish to interfere with Jiang Jiang Qinge's choice, and whatever choice she made, he would respect her.

After all, this was not a parting of life and death.

Lan Lan Lingzi crossed her arms, watching the scene with interest. She knew Jiang Jiang Qinge was too dazzling, to the point that even a woman like Zhen Mingyu could not bear to let her go. After all, the Heaven Mirror Tower held an extremely high status within the Academy Alliance; countless Marquis-level experts with extraordinary talent had lowered themselves to become instructors within the academies just to enter it, working diligently for decades. Yet now, Zhen Mingyu not only used the Heaven Mirror Tower as bait but also directly promised the title of 'Heaven Mirror Scholar'.

You must know, the 'Heaven Mirror Scholar' is considered the highest achievement of the Academy Alliance; in terms of substance, it is countless times more valuable than things like the Chief Instructor of the Starfall Academy.

However, facing Zhen Mingyu's heavy temptation, how would Jiang Jiang Qinge choose?

Not just Lan Lan Lingzi, but everyone held this thought, waiting for Jiang Jiang Qinge's answer.

Ning Meng was also very expectant, because she would most likely enter the Heaven Mirror Tower; if Jiang Jiang Qinge could come as well, that would undoubtedly be the best news for her.

Under everyone's gaze, Jiang Jiang Qinge fell silent for a few breaths, then said softly, "Instructor, thank you for your kindness. In the future, if the Academy needs me, just send me a message, and I will surely assist with all my might."

When these words came out, everyone knew Jiang Jiang Qinge's choice; immediately, many had complex expressions. For Li Luo's sake, she was actually willing to give up the opportunity to become a 'Heaven Mirror Scholar'.

A trace of disappointment flashed in Zhen Mingyu's eyes, but she still sighed lightly and nodded, saying, "Very well, I will respect your choice."

Immediately, she glanced at Li Luo and warned, "If your Dragon Tooth Pulse treats Jiang Qinge poorly, I, the Dean, will personally find Li Li Jingzhe to cause trouble."

Li Luo hurriedly nodded, saying, "Dean Third, rest assured. I will definitely not let Sister Jiang Qinge suffer even the slightest grievance in the Dragon Tooth Pulse."

"Hmph, rest assured? Your Dragon Tooth Pulse has a precedent. In the past, Taihuai Lan was also a top genius; what was the final result? Fortunately, Li Taixuan was still a man with responsibility; even though he left with his wife far away, he refused to compromise." Zhen Mingyu snorted coldly.

Li Luo was speechless, then let out a bitter laugh. He truly could not comment on the matters of the previous generation; he knew this was also a pain deep within Li Li Jingzhe's heart. Back then, for the sake of the greater situation, he took a step back, yet forced his most beloved child to leave home and go to a distant land.

This was also the main reason why the Dragon Tooth Pulse and the Dragon Blood Pulse had become increasingly discordant over these years.

Li Luo did not want to discuss this topic with outsiders, so he changed the subject, saying, "Dean Third, I actually have a proposal."

"What?" Zhen Mingyu replied lazily.

"I feel that Sister Jiang Qinge entering that so-called Heaven Mirror Tower actually has no major conflict with temporarily returning to the Dragon Tooth Pulse with me. Perhaps we can first have her register her name at the Heaven Mirror Tower, and later, when she has time, I will accompany her to the Heaven Mirror Tower. How about that?" Li Luo smiled.

The Academy Alliance was a true giant; in terms of foundation, it probably surpassed even our Li Li Tianwang Pulse by far. And the Heaven Mirror Tower is the core of it, so naturally, this is also a great opportunity. From a long-term perspective, Li Luo certainly did not want Jiang Jiang Qinge to lose this opportunity because of him.

Zhen Mingyu was stunned, frowning as she said, "Register a name? Such a thing has never happened at the Heaven Mirror Tower before."

The Heaven Mirror Tower also had its pride. After all, over these countless years, they had seen many demonic geniuses. However... Jiang Jiang Qinge's three Ninth-Rank Light Phantoms were extremely effective against the aberrations, fitting perfectly with the Academy Alliance's needs in combating the aberrations.

So Zhen Mingyu pondered slightly, then nodded: "This might be possible. Jiang Qinge, what is your opinion?"

Jiang Jiang Qinge thought for a moment, then asked seriously, "Instructor, can Li Luo enter the Heaven Mirror Tower?"

Zhen Mingyu said helplessly, "You two are stuck together, aren't you? What do you think the Heaven Mirror Tower is? A place where you can pack and go together?"

Li Luo found it amusing and waved his hand, saying, "Sister Jiang Qinge, don't worry about me."

But Jiang Jiang Qinge continued to look at Zhen Mingyu with a serious expression, waiting for her to give a definite answer.

Zhen Mingyu knew Jiang Jiang Qinge's character; she figured that if this problem was not resolved, Jiang Jiang Qinge probably would not agree to go to the Heaven Mirror Tower.

So she said with some distress, "Li Luo is neither a student of an Ancient Academy nor an instructor of any academy; it seems he does not fit the rules."

Lan Lan Lingzi, standing nearby, suddenly said with a smile, "This matter is easy to handle. I can take charge and let Li Luo register his name at our Tianyuan Ancient Academy. How about that?"

Zhen Mingyu glanced at her and said, "You really know how to pick up benefits."

Li Luo's talent was actually also dazzling, especially if he later advanced to the Marquis Realm; he would possess four palaces. With such talent, it was possible he might even forge a 'Ten Pillar Golden Platform'.

Any Ancient Academy would love such a perfect seedling very much.

"With the push from our two Ancient Academies, the resistance for them to first obtain the Heaven Mirror Tower registration will be much smaller. Otherwise, relying solely on your Holy Light Ancient Academy, it might not go smoothly." Lan Lan Lingzi analyzed with reason and evidence.

Zhen Mingyu hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded, because what Lan Lan Lingzi said was indeed very reasonable. The Heaven Mirror Tower held a special status within the Academy Alliance, containing many rigid old fellows, and only with the joint push of two Ancient Academies could it proceed smoothly.

Seeing this, Lan Lan Lingzi smiled at Li Luo again: "Do you have no objections?"

Li Luo hurriedly shook his head, smiling: "Vice Dean Lan Lan Lingzi is still as caring towards me as ever."

Lan Lan Lingzi tilted her head slightly, her eyes fixed on him with some mockery, saying, "Oh? Did I care for you much before? Did I promise you something?"

Li Luo froze. What was going on? Previously at the Tianyuan Ancient Academy, Lan Lan Lingzi had promised him various benefits; how could she now act as if she had amnesia?

Was this using and discarding?

Lan Lan Lingzi said leisurely, "Boy, the 'Lan Lan Lingzi' you saw in the Academy before was not my true body. To be precise, that was a skin created by the Demon King of All Sentient Beings, borrowing a trace of my aura."

"So, if anything was promised to you, that was the Demon King of All Sentient Beings, not me."

"You can go find it to redeem the promise."

Li Luo was startled, exclaiming in horror, "The Vice Dean 'Lan Lan Lingzi' inside the Academy was formed from the Demon King of All Sentient Beings' skin?!"

Lan Elder Ling Yu nodded, saying, "The Demon King of All Sentient Beings used this to disrupt our plans, causing you to enter the Small Chen Heaven prematurely, thus falling into the scheme it had prepared. Fortunately, you eventually thwarted it."

Li Luo was terrified. Was this the terror of the Demon King of All Sentient Beings? To be able to play with a skin to such a bizarre extent. At that time, even Vice Deans Wu Yu and Qing Man had not detected anything wrong.

However...

Then did the complete version of the Three Dragon Heaven Flag Canon and the High-Grade Phantom Power Tree Seed promised by the previous 'Lan Lan Lingzi' also go to waste?

Li Luo was a bit dumbfounded.

Seeing Li Luo's expression, Lan Lan Lingzi couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Alright, I won't tease you anymore. The skin created by the Demon King of All Sentient Beings is terrifying because it simulates my thoughts and ideas. So, in a sense, it is not too different from me personally; the choices it made would likely be the ones I would make."

"So, I will honor the promises it made."

Li Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief, giving Lan Lan Lingzi a thumbs-up, saying, "Vice Dean is generous. No wonder Dean Pang is constantly thinking of you and entrusted me to come to the Tianyuan Ancient Academy to find you."

Lan Lan Lingzi's eyes flickered; she didn't know whether to believe what Li Luo said or not.

Now that the matter was settled, the students of the two Ancient Academies were about to truly withdraw from the Small Chen Heaven. Afterwards, the Academy Alliance would dispatch an exploration team to enter this place to collect numerous resources.

Ning Meng and Jiang Jiang Qinge parted reluctantly, with Ning Meng saying, "Little E, I will wait for you at the Heaven Mirror Tower. You must come quickly."

Jiang Jiang Qinge, however, smiled and agreed.

Yin Yue Zhiyu pursed her lips, lifted her chin proudly, and walked into the teleportation array that had appeared behind Zhen Mingyu.

Wei Chonglou gazed darkly at Jiang Jiang Qinge standing shoulder to shoulder with Li Luo, ultimately unable to say anything, and turned to leave in dejection.

In the end, as the two vice-deans activated the teleportation array, a resplendent pillar of light shot skyward, enveloping the many students present, and vanished without a trace.

And with their little affair over, this Minor Chen Heaven once again returned to its former tranquility.

This Minor Chen Heaven conscription mission, which had lasted several months, finally came to a complete close at this moment. "(Brothers, tonight at seven I'll livestream on Douyin playing King of Glory, just for fun. The bar isn't high — just five stars, and tomorrow I'll write double updates!)"
