Chapter 573: Creating Miracles!

Although she also agreed with Ye Qingran's point, thinking of how yesterday she, for personal gain, disregarded her safety and selfishly interrupted her filled her with anger.

Because when she first saw Ye Qingran yesterday, the image of that master flashed in her mind, and she felt she resembled that master in some ways.

This is a complete insult to the master!

One is a benevolent Beast Tamer who saves the people from fire and water; the other is a profit‑driven Alchemist. They are worlds apart!

"Instructor Ye, you're right. I happen to have some questions I'd like to ask you, ask you."

Is Duan Yu also going to ask Ye Qingran for guidance?

Duan Yu pointed toward the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) and said, "I've been striving to improve my spiritual power; I wonder if Instructor Ye has any good methods?"

When those words were spoken, everyone was certain that Duan Yu was looking for trouble.

It should be noted that Duan Yu is an exceptionally talented Beast Tamer.

Her spiritual power has become so strong that she has no peers!

One could say that among the Academy's countless disciples, none have stronger spiritual power than Duan Yu.

Two years ago, Duan Yu left a seven‑inch‑deep mark beneath the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall), shocking the Academy and becoming, in the Academy's nearly ten‑thousand‑year history, one of the few disciples capable of carving a seven‑inch‑deep imprint on the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) with spiritual power.

If Duan Yu says she wants Ye Qingran to help her boost her spiritual power, isn't that deliberately making things difficult for Ye Qingran?

Nevertheless, despite those words, everyone holds unprecedented expectations for Ye Qingran's performance.

If Ye Qingran's spiritual power were stronger than Duan Yu's...

Duan Yu didn't wait for a reply; she walked to the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) and sat cross‑legged a zhang away from it.

From the side, the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) looked like a massive, smooth, flat stone, its surface shining with a white‑jade hue and a flow of white light.

In fact, the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) isn't real stone but a piece of uniquely textured jade.

Under normal circumstances, spiritual power cannot exert a tangible effect on physical objects.

The Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) is different; it can reflect spiritual power, measuring its strength and feeding the result back.

The most direct response is that spiritual power penetrates the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall), leaving a depth imprint on it.

The deeper the mark, the stronger the spiritual power.

Two years ago, Duan Yu already left a seven‑inch‑deep imprint; two years later, with her spiritual power enhanced, what miracle will she create now?

Duan Yu's eyes rested lightly on the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall), yet the corner of her mouth curled with a fierce, arrogant arc.

"Seven inches? I'll break the record myself!"

She whispered softly, a supreme pride flashing in her eyes.

When Duan Yu closed her eyes, everyone saw a water‑ripple‑like trace appear somewhere on the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall), spreading outward.

"It's begun!"

The crowd held their breath.

They knew clearly in their hearts that today Duan Yu would set a new record.

It should be noted that the Academy's highest record in the Divine Land is seven inches; could Duan Yu this time be aiming for an eight‑inch—or even higher—new record?

Stay tuned!

One inch...

Two inches...

Three inches...

The invisible spiritual power, like a dagger sharpened to the extreme, pierced the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) evenly.

A gap gradually formed, prompting renewed awe at Duan Yu's formidable spiritual power.

Know that in just a few breaths she pierced four inches—a limit for many people.

Five inches...

Six inches...

Seven inches...

After five inches, Duan Yu's speed slowed, yet she quickly reached the seven‑inch mark she herself set two years ago.

Back then, her record was actually a bit over seven inches, just a hair shy of eight. Even at full effort, she failed to create a miracle.

Two years later, after intense cultivation, she returned here with terrifying spiritual power, unstoppable as a bamboo shoot!

Duan Yu's face turned grim, her whole body tensed; after gritting her teeth, her spiritual power pierced the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) eight inches deep!

Record broken!

Duan Yu created the deepest spiritual‑power penetration of the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) in the Academy's ten‑thousand‑year history!

However, as everyone cheered, Duan Yu had no intention of stopping.

She continued to strive.

Although her speed had slowed considerably, she still drilled inward at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The onlookers grew quiet, instinctively clenching fists, silently cheering her on.

"Is Duan Yu trying to challenge nine inches? That's terrifying!"

Someone, covering their pounding heart, whispered.

Duan Yu indeed aims to challenge nine inches.

After two years of trials, she raised her spiritual power to an unprecedented height.

She knows that to become a Beast Tamer like that master, a sea‑like spiritual power is indispensable.

Thus, over the past two years, she seized every chance to boost her spiritual power.

Heaven knows how much suffering she has endured and how many sins she has borne.

As long as she can become stronger, as long as one day she can stand shoulder‑to‑shoulder with that master, it's all worth it!

"Ah!"

Duan Yu gave a clear shout, her whole body erupting with a terrifying aura; the Source-less Wind rose, lifting her black hair.

Pfft~

Her mental power struck the Yingbi (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall) (Shadow Wall), leaving a gouge over nine cun deep!

Nine cun!

Everyone was shocked speechless after seeing this.

What terrifying mental power could achieve this?

Afterward, Duan Yu pressed on relentlessly, finally stopping just short of ten cun!

Though she hadn't reached ten cun, it already inspired awe and admiration.

Without a doubt, the name Duan Yu will forever remain in the legend of the Divine Province Academy.

Duan Yu revealed a satisfied smile.

This result was as she expected, and she was still quite satisfied.

"Instructor Ye, please give me some guidance!"

One sentence, and Ye Qingran became the focus again.

Originally, if Duan Yu had only left an eight-cun mark, Ye Qingran might still have had a chance to fight.

A result nearing ten cun is something even Dean Li Daoyun might not manage, let alone Ye Qingran.

After Duan Yu finished speaking, she yielded her position.
