Chapter 181

Of course, there were also some seasoned veterans with broad experience.

After seeing the holy aura that permeated the entire screen, they showed a hint of surprise.

"Hmm? He actually extinguished all the evil god auras. It seems Zhou Yi's skill is not simple."

"S-rank skill, Hand of God. It can summon a giant hand carrying the true power of a god. Although the divine power on the Hand of God is very weak, facing these feeble evil god auras, it is naturally overwhelming."

On the ceremony platform, a group of experienced instructors immediately saw through the trick.

"It seems this time Zhou Yi stumbled upon a shortcut by accident."

"Heh, a shortcut like this? Try letting other freshmen take it! A skill carrying the power of a god is not that easy to learn!"

"True enough. It seems our paladin has his own little secrets..."

In the entire Zhongxia Nation, almost all skill books of B-rank and above are held by the major top universities.

Some family factions have them too, but often only a very small portion.

Among the skill books collected by the major top universities, those rated A-rank are kept under strict guard.

Ordinary students wishing to learn them must not only spend a large sum of credits but also submit an application before they can study.

And S-rank skill books, which are above A-rank, are even more strictly guarded in the deepest part of the library!

Even if a student wishes to learn, they must pass extremely strict audits and examinations before being granted permission.

Zhou Yi has only been enrolled for a little over a month.

The highest skill learning permission granted by the school is only B-plus rank; he hasn't even touched A-rank, let alone the higher S-rank.

Therefore, the S-rank skill Hand of God can only be the result of him learning it privately...

Although they did not know how he, coming from the barren north of Suhang Province, managed to access an S-rank skill, the many instructors did not intend to probe deeper.

After all, geniuses are always different.

As long as he is not a disguised creature from another world.

And this point had already been confirmed during enrollment registration.

Although they did not know why the Xiong Guai ghosts in the additional dungeon stopped resurrecting after the holy giant hand descended.

The instructors said nothing, and out of trust in Suhang University, the veterans in the audience also believed this was a normal phenomenon.

Of course...

As for what method Zhou Yi used to achieve this result, they were still extremely curious.

"The key to the Xiong Guai ghosts resurrecting lies in the evil god energy. Every time we kill a ghost, we consume a portion of the evil god energy."

"After ten times, the evil god energy is completely exhausted, and the Xiong Guai cannot resurrect."

"To achieve this effect, it can only be that Zhou Yi extinguished and cleared all the evil god energy by some means."

"Without the supply of evil god energy, the Xiong Guai ghosts naturally cannot resurrect again."

A tall, thin man wearing glasses spoke.

He came from the Tactical Academy and had considerable research into monster attributes and energy.

"How is this possible? Although the evil god energy is weak, it still belongs to the power of a god. How many levels is Zhou Yi? How can he access the power of a god?"

"Did you forget? He is a paladin, which is quite different from ordinary professions."

"Hiss!! Right! This is actually possible!"

Among the many professions on Blue Star, those requiring faith in a god are actually not many...

Priests and paladins are considered the more well-known types. Compared to other professions, these two types indeed have easier access to the power of a god.

"However, even so, truly utilizing the power of a god is not a simple matter."

"True enough. Zhou Yi is simply too strong; he is on a completely different level compared to us back then..."

Amidst the sighs, everyone gained a further understanding of Zhou Yi's might.

"After eliminating the Xiong Guai ghosts and collecting the dungeon rewards, he should be coming out soon."

A sentence that appeared from nowhere caused the students in the audience to subconsciously look toward the Baiyinda Sect at the back of the playground.

Voom~~~

Before the Baiyinda Sect, the figure that had attracted so much attention teleported back.

The figure was tall and muscular, with a massive battle axe stained with a bit of blood carried on his back.

Perhaps because he had just come out of the dungeon, he carried a cold killing intent around him.

Paired with his sharp, resolute face, it caused some senior female students' beautiful eyes to sparkle repeatedly.

"Seeing him in reality is more imposing than seeing him on the screen."

"This equipment combination suits Zhou Yi perfectly! It doesn't look bulky at all; instead, he looks heroic and majestic."

"Quick, check what equipment he is wearing. I'll get a set like that later!"

The young girls were all captivated by the cold temperament Zhou Yi displayed.

And some clever boys immediately activated the Appraisal Technique to start observing Zhou Yi's equipment combination.

"Hmm, a Golden-rank General Battle Axe."

"About 1.9 meters long, the axe handle is cast from Xuan Iron and has enchanted patterns."

"The axe blade is also different from ordinary battle axes, very distinctive."

"Tsk tsk, equipping such a battle axe is indeed very domineering."

Giant-class weapons naturally tend to easily bring a sense of impact to others.

And what Zhou Yi requested was a special version of the battle axe, heavier than the ordinary General Battle Axe!

Therefore, it is thicker and larger than ordinary battle axes, bringing an even stronger visual impact.

Of course, among all professions, those using battle axes are still a minority.

Since weapons cannot be replicated, everyone subconsciously started using the Appraisal Technique to observe the equipment on Zhou Yi's body.

He didn't know until he appraised it — and the moment he did, he got a real shock!!

"Holy crap?! What's going on here? Apart from his weapon and ring, why does Zhou Yi have nothing but white-grade gear on him?!"

"That's absurd! White-grade gear isn't even as good as bronze-grade equipment — the stat boosts are practically zero!!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you're not gonna tell me Zhou Yi cleared that dungeon and set a new record wearing this set of white-grade gear, are you?"

"Hiss — clearing an Abyss-grade dungeon in white-grade gear, what kind of monster is he?"

In an instant, gasps and chatter erupted across the entire spectator stands.

Some people's eyes went wide, their faces full of disbelief.

PS: It's the start of the month, begging for monthly tickets, many thanks~~~~.
