Chapter 146: Li Luo's Endurance

On the high platform, the five Purple-Glow Mentors looked at the interweaving rays of Resonance Light and weren't particularly surprised, since this was a sight they were quite accustomed to.

For those cultivating on the Resonance Power Tree for the first time, triggering Resonance Light wasn't all that difficult, but of course, it wouldn't be so common as to be rampant either. According to yearly statistics, among new students climbing the tree, those who could trigger Resonance Light usually numbered around twenty to thirty.

Generally speaking, these Purple-Glow students had a high probability of triggering it—after all, anyone who became a Purple-Glow student necessarily had excellent personal conditions, and combined with the special nature of the Purple Jade Leaf Platform, Purple-Glow students who failed to trigger Resonance Light were actually the rarer sight.

Shen Shen Jinxiao poured himself a drink, his indifferent gaze fixed on the spot where Li Luo stood.

Up to now, no Resonance Light had appeared at Li Luo's location, but Shen Shen Jinxiao wouldn't truly believe he was incapable of triggering it. After all, Li Luo's personal conditions were undeniable—even though his dual resonance grades weren't high, dual resonance was still dual resonance, and combined, they wouldn't be inferior to an eighth-grade.

So what Shen Shen Jinxiao wanted to pay attention to wasn't whether Li Luo could trigger Resonance Light, but rather how bright the Resonance Light he triggered could be...

However, before they could wait for Li Luo's Resonance Light to appear, Mentor Mi'er nearby suddenly exclaimed in surprise. The other mentors followed his gaze and saw that on the Purple Jade Leaf Platform where Yu Lang stood, a burst of bright Resonance Light had suddenly erupted.

The intensity of that light was actually no weaker than that of Duze Duze Beixuan, Bai Bai Doudou, and the others.

"This Yu Lang—I recall he should only be a sixth-grade wind resonance, right? I originally thought he would be the only one among this batch of Purple-Glow students unable to trigger Resonance Light. I didn't expect he could actually do it," Mentor Chu Zi said with a smile.

Cao Sheng set down his wine jar, stared at Yu Lang's location for a moment, and said: "This kid's Resonance Light carries a certain shallowness within its brightness, which shows he didn't trigger it by relying on his own resonance grade, but on a kind of conviction."

"His talent is average, but his disposition is still decent."

The other mentors also smiled and nodded. Yu Lang's personal conditions were the worst among this batch of Purple-Glow students, so if he wanted to catch up with the other Purple-Glow students, he would need to put in more sweat and effort. And to sustain that effort, he would need an inextinguishable conviction.

If even he himself believed he couldn't do it, then there truly would be no chance of doing it.

On the contrary, if he could give birth to a kind of obsession, sometimes the impossible would become possible.

Resonance grade only made cultivating Resonance Power easier and one's potential deeper, but what ultimately determined how far one could go was, among other things, one's own conviction.

And while the mentors' attention was drawn to Yu Lang, Xi Shan's gaze suddenly shifted, looking toward the spot where Li Luo stood.

At that moment, the world's energy there began to churn, then, with Li Luo's body as the source, an energy vortex suddenly spiraled up, and at the same time, the light of Resonance Light surged forth.

First came a blue Resonance Light, its glow rippling across the surface of Li Luo's body like a water wave.

After the blue Resonance Light, an emerald-green color immediately emerged, forming another Resonance Light.

"This Li Luo, as expected, has two Resonance Lights." Mentor Cao Sheng came back to his senses, swept his gaze, and said with some admiration: "This truly is a rare sight."

"Although it's two Resonance Lights, in terms of brilliance, it's still a notch dimmer than Qin Qin Zhulu's, let alone compared to Jiang Jiang Qinge back then," Shen Shen Jinxiao said flatly.

Cao Sheng and the others also nodded. Indeed, judging by the brightness of the Resonance Light, Li Luo's two Resonance Lights seemed somewhat lukewarm, and compared to Jiang Jiang Qinge's dazzling sun-like Resonance Light back then, the gap was far too great.

But that was normal—Jiang Jiang Qinge's ninth-grade Light Resonance was simply too domineering. In the past hundred years of this Holy Divine Star Academy, no student had been able to surpass her.

Although Li Luo had dual resonances, his grades were still a bit low. If both of his resonances could reach eighth-grade, then he should be able to compare with Jiang Jiang Qinge.

Mentor Xi Shan, however, said nothing. In truth, she hadn't really expected Li Luo to truly match Jiang Jiang Qinge. For him to achieve this result was already quite good. That Shen Shen Jinxiao was simply picking quarrels without cause, and there was no need to pay him much attention.

After confirming that Li Luo's Resonance Light wasn't particularly outstanding, Shen Shen Jinxiao didn't continue to focus his attention on him. After all, he only wanted to confirm that although Li Luo possessed dual resonances, when truly compared, he was at most about the same as Duze Duze Beixuan and the others of the lower eighth-grade. Although that counted as decent potential, it was ultimately something that could make Shen Shen Jinxiao feel a bit better.

In this new student area of the Resonance Power Tree, as the students began cultivating, every now and then one or two Resonance Lights would bloom over on the Gold-Glow students' side, but the brilliance of those lights was still much inferior to those on the Purple-Glow students' side.

Clearly, students who could bridge the gap of innate talent to catch up were, after all, extremely few.

And those students who had triggered Resonance Light, amid many envious gazes, closed their eyes to cultivate, enjoying the rush of the world's energy pouring in like a heavenly baptism, causing the Resonance Power within their bodies to surge rapidly.

The appearance of these Resonance Lights lasted for roughly ten minutes or so.

This was the normal duration for Resonance Light, and the most outstanding was none other than Jiang Jiang Qinge's twenty minutes back then.

Bai Bai Doudou opened her eyes during cultivation, a look of joy on her face. This Resonance Light had caused her Resonance Power to increase greatly—enough to equal a month of bitter cultivation.

Her gaze suddenly turned toward the spot where Yu Lang stood, and she was somewhat surprised to see the Resonance Light on him gradually fading.

"This guy... actually triggered Resonance Light too?" She knew something about Yu Lang's sixth-grade wind resonance. This kind of talent was considered the bottom among Purple-Glow students. Originally, Bai Bai Doudou had thought Yu Lang would probably struggle even to trigger Resonance Light this time, but clearly, she had somewhat underestimated him.

"Seems not as bad as I thought." She pouted and muttered to herself.

And Yu Lang, at this moment, groggily opened his eyes. He sensed within his body and immediately widened his eyes: "Holy crap, I've reached Ten-Seal?"

This Resonance Light had actually directly let him reach the Ten-Seal Realm. After some more accumulation, he could charge into the Resonance Master Realm!

This result made Yu Lang ecstatic, and at the same time he sighed—success really is reserved for those who are prepared, although he had no idea what exactly he had prepared.

More and more Resonance Lights began to fade at this moment, until at last only one Resonance Light remained, still radiating its stubborn glow.

Everyone looked and saw that the person within that Resonance Light was none other than Li Luo.

But no one paid it much mind—he should be finishing soon.

So they waited, and another eight minutes passed, yet the Resonance Light emanating from Li Luo still showed no sign of fading.

On the high platform, the five Purple-Glow Mentors also felt some astonishment.

"It's been eighteen minutes? In terms of endurance, he's actually almost catching up to Jiang Jiang Qinge?" Mentor Cao Sheng said in astonishment.

Shen Shen Jinxiao's expression shifted slightly, while Mentor Xi Shan's gaze suddenly grew bright, staring intently at the figure within the Resonance Light.

The other mentors exchanged glances. Li Luo's Resonance Light, though not strong in brilliance, this endurance of his... seemed rather astonishing.
