Chapter 24: Double-Headed Eagle

During the afternoon class, while Yingzhou was Gathering Spiritual Power, he suddenly discovered that his Spiritual Power could no longer continue to condense, but instead began to gradually dissipate.

Is this the feeling of Spiritual Power dissipation that Instructor Longyang spoke of? Yingzhou thought to himself, and immediately stopped gathering Spiritual Power.

Longyang also noticed Yingzhou's situation, walked to his side, and whispered, "Your current Spiritual Power is already enough to draw a spirit talisman; now you must rely on your own exploration."

Yingzhou nodded slightly, then closed his eyes, attempting to immerse himself in the previous sensation. Not long after, he felt himself surrounded by endless darkness.

Yingzhou began to mobilize the Spiritual Power within his body; a stream of silvery-white Spiritual Power gushed out from his body like a clear spring, instantly lighting up this darkness.

Yingzhou recalled the words Instructor Longyang had once said: "Spirit talismans are closely related to the Guardian Spirit; if one can successfully draw a spirit talisman without it collapsing, then one will obtain more powerful Spiritual Power."

Yingzhou made up his mind and began to focus all his attention on controlling that stream of silvery-white Spiritual Power, converging it into a line in the darkness and carefully outlining the silhouette of the spirit talisman, every stroke and every line appearing so cautious.

As the final stroke fell, a Double-Headed Eagle with wings spread appeared in the darkness; the eagle head on the right was blindfolded, while the eyes of the eagle head on the left were not covered.

The moment this emblem appeared, Yingzhou felt his Spiritual Power flowing away rapidly, while the Double-Headed Eagle became increasingly bright in the darkness.

And Longyang, standing beside Yingzhou, was currently staring at Yingzhou, observing his every move; if any accident occurred, he would step in to help at the first opportunity.

"Five minutes have passed, it should be fine now," Longyang muttered to himself.

Just at this moment, a powerful Spiritual Power Fluctuation spread in all directions with Yingzhou as the center.

The students around him who were Gathering Spiritual Power were all shocked by such a massive disturbance.

"This guy Yingzhou, what is he doing!" Bai Tao widened his eyes, looking at Yingzhou at the center of the Spiritual Power Fluctuation, and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Looking at his appearance, it seems he is drawing a spirit talisman," Su Miao pondered for a few seconds and confirmed.

"What!"

As soon as Su Miao's words were out, everyone around gasped.

It hasn't even been half a year, how is he already promoting to a Diji Lingnengzhe? This is too fast!

After about half a minute, Yingzhou's Spiritual Power Fluctuation finally stopped, his breathing became steadier, and his entire aura became more restrained.

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for promoting to Diji Lingnengzhe. To celebrate, the system hereby rewards you with 2000 points!"

Yingzhou's originally calm heart nearly failed to hold its composure.

What? I promoted to Diji Lingnengzhe, and you only reward me with 2000 points? I hadn't even managed to save up 2000 points after all my hard work before!

Yingzhou complained inwardly, but still opened the System Panel full of anticipation to check his information.

【Host: Yingzhou.】

【Currently owned Legion: Death Korps of Krieg.】

【Legion capacity: 116 men (160 men).】

【Summonable Legion personnel: 116 men.】

【Remaining chances to draw Legion types: 0 times.】

"Tsk, System, 2000 points is still too little; it's not even enough for me to increase the Legion capacity," Yingzhou clicked his tongue and said.

"If the Host finds it too little, this system can also take the points back."

"Don't, I think you are very conscientious!" Yingzhou hurriedly interrupted the system's follow-up words, "Use 2000 points to increase the Legion capacity."

After increasing his Legion capacity from 116 men to 156 men, Yingzhou slowly opened his eyes and saw Instructor Longyang watching him from the side, so he smiled and said, "Instructor, I succeeded!"

"I didn't expect you to figure out the method of drawing a spirit talisman on your first try; it seems you have some understanding of your Guardian Spirit," Longyang nodded with satisfaction. "I will report your promotion to Psionic to the school today; you should receive your graduation qualification tomorrow."

"Yes!" Yingzhou stood up and said to Longyang.

After the crowd was dismissed, they all gathered around and asked questions all at once.

"Yingzhou, I didn't expect you to promote to Diji Lingnengzhe so quickly!"

"Congratulations, congratulations! But since your graduation qualification will be issued tomorrow, it's estimated that you'll be heading to the Military District in just a few days."

"You have so much perseverance, Gathering Spiritual Power in your room every single day!"

Yingzhou looked at the crowd surrounding him and revealed a warm smile, "Thank you all for your congratulations; I hope you can also promote to Diji Lingnengzhe soon."

Only after seeing Yingzhou promote to Diji Lingnengzhe did Bai Tao truly feel that he had been left a great distance behind by Yingzhou.

After finishing dealing with the surrounding students, Yingzhou came before Bai Tao, who was still in a daze.

"What are you thinking about?" Yingzhou waved his right hand in front of Bai Tao's eyes and asked.

"Hahaha, nothing, it's just that I suddenly feel you've changed a lot," Bai Tao chuckled dryly. "It's just that when I think about you going to the Military District soon, I don't know if we'll have a chance to meet again."

Yingzhou saw Bai Tao's somewhat dejected expression and patted his shoulder with a smile, "It's fine, I'll go to the Military District to scout the situation for you first; when you get there, you can hang out with me!"

"I didn't think you would be the first person to promote; we were too slack and were left behind by you," Su Miao also said with a smile from the side.

"Actually, going to the battlefield later isn't necessarily a bad thing; after all, people die on the battlefield," Yingzhou replied.

And the reason I want to go to the battlefield early is to make myself stronger. Yingzhou added silently in his heart.

Night fell, and the entire Lingnengzhe Xuexiao was immersed in tranquility. However, in the public living room of an independent dormitory building, it was filled with laughter and joy. It turned out that everyone was holding a lively party here for Yingzhou, and Yingzhou himself rarely participated in it.

At the party, everyone enjoyed the food, music, and happy times to the fullest. Yingzhou chatted and played games with his classmates, spending a pleasant evening. After the party ended, Yingzhou returned to his room. He sat quietly on the bed, his thoughts gradually drifting away, recalling the bits and pieces since arriving in this world.

He remembered the scene when he first stepped into the Psionic Academy. At that time, under Instructor Longyang's strict training, he once felt that he couldn't hold on any longer. But it was these trials that allowed him to gradually grow.

Next, he recalled the various difficulties and setbacks he encountered during the process of Gathering Spiritual Power. Sometimes, he would fail because he couldn't concentrate; and there was another time, the experience in Xitai District that left an indelible mark on him. These experiences all made him stronger.

Yingzhou shook his head, attempting to shake off the thoughts in his mind. Although he had now promoted to Diji Lingnengzhe, his goal was not limited to this. Yingzhou took a deep breath, sat up straight again, and began tonight's practice of Gathering Spiritual Power.
