Chapter 102: Heaven and Earth Mourn Together, Ten Thousand Li Blood Rainbow

"It is not that I do not wish to resolve your doubts, but mainly because you are all too weak; sometimes knowing too much is not a good..." Hesitating slightly, Instructor He Yan subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Rumble—

Before Instructor He Yan could finish, at this very moment, a clap of thunder suddenly resounded from the edge of the sky.

The thunder roared, shaking the four directions.

This thunder came so suddenly that everyone present was startled, including Instructor He Yan.

How could there be thunder on such a clear day?

Suddenly, the sky, which had been as clear as if washed, trembled and hummed without warning; the sound was like mournful music, as if the entire heaven and earth were wailing and weeping.

At this moment, Instructor He Yan's expression changed drastically, her body showing signs of trembling, and she hurriedly cast her gaze out the window, looking up at the firmament.

At this moment, the sky suddenly changed!

The sky, originally clear as if washed, seemed to have been splashed with ink; countless dark clouds appeared out of thin air, winding and undulating, roaring like dragons, as if they were solid objects, while wild winds swept and howled, scouring the universe and emitting strange 'woo-woo-woo' sounds.

The entire heaven and earth turned pitch black, and an invisible Pressure vaguely formed, making it hard for people to breathe.

Heaven and Earth Mourn Together, Ten Thousand Li Blood Rainbow appears!

Suddenly, a blood-colored rainbow spanned the horizon, twisting and turning in the air, stretching across both ends of the world; one could not see the end of it, as if it had split the firmament in two.

At the same time, with the Blood Rainbow as the center, within a radius of ten thousand li, blood-colored raindrops began to fall in a drizzle, as if the whole world were weeping, sketching out various postures that looked like blooming blood plums, exceptionally desolate and beautiful.

The Blood Rainbow spanned ten thousand li, and the blood rain fell with a boom!

No matter who it was, as long as they took a single look, sorrow would involuntarily well up in their hearts.

These scenes made people feel exceptionally oppressed!

This time, the celestial phenomenon covered an area of ten thousand li, encompassing not only the Langya Kingdom but also several surrounding countries.

At this very moment, people within the range of the phenomenon were all looking at the firmament in shock.

Some people wanted to catch the blood rain, but the moment the rain touched their hands, it suddenly vanished without a trace, as if the phenomenon before their eyes were an illusion.

Soon, countless birds landed on trees, raising their heads to let out mournful cries, while beasts lay on the ground one after another, facing north as if mourning something.

On the ground, many humans experienced intense emotional fluctuations; they could not stop their sorrow, as if the Soft parts of their hearts had been touched, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

At this moment, all living beings within the range of the blood rain, whether human, Spirit Beast, or animal, were all affected.

Looking at the Blood Rainbow spanning the sky and the blood rain the color of fresh blood, Li Zhangsheng also felt sorrow welling up in his heart, with an urge to cry out loud.

Suddenly, a female student cried out with a 'wa', emitting a mournful sob, her face instantly covered in tears.

She did not know why she was crying, nor did she want others to see her weakness, yet she could not stop the tears streaming from her eyes, no matter what.

As if infected, more and more students could not endure it, and tears fell in torrents.

It was not just Class One; the entire Yuanling Academy was experiencing a similar scene.

Many people were staring blankly at the firmament while wiping away their tears, their hearts shocked and complex.

"Changsheng, I want to cry too!" At this time, Kailan flew out of Li Zhangsheng's pocket, her expression mournful, her eyes filled with tears.

Wa—

Before Li Zhangsheng could respond, Kailan, unable to endure it, began to cry loudly, her shoulders trembling, unable to suppress it at all.

Wa wa wa—

Suddenly, crying sounds also came from nearby; Li Zhangsheng turned his neck stiffly and saw Zhang Yi covering his prominent Thunder God Mouth with one hand while constantly wiping away tears, but he could not stop the large drops of tears from sliding down.

"A grown man, how can he cry like a little girl?"

Li Zhangsheng muttered to himself, though in reality, he was almost unable to suppress it himself; his eye sockets were red, but he was desperately holding back, while at the same time, a strong sense of curiosity welled up in his heart.

What was the reason for the heaven and earth to change color?

The void trembling, black clouds pressing down, wild winds howling, the ten thousand li Blood Rainbow, the falling blood rain—he had seen a similar phenomenon before, three years ago!

Like Li Zhangsheng, the other new students had also seen a similar scene; they did not know the reason for the phenomenon before them, but everyone could feel that it was extraordinary.

Unfortunately, their elders had never revealed anything to them.

The celestial phenomenon before them had come too suddenly, leaving everyone feeling at a loss, but they had reason to believe that something must have happened.

Whether it was the celestial phenomenon before their eyes, the inexplicable sorrow welling up in their hearts, or the uncontrollable wailing, it was all too abnormal for them.

Instructor He Yan looked up at the firmament, gazing at the Blood Rainbow spanning the sky; her expression was dazed, her eye sockets gradually moistening, and she whispered: "Heaven and Earth Mourn Together, Ten Thousand Li Blood Rainbow! This is Humanity's Sorrow; only when an Emperor Rank falls will such a phenomenon appear!"

He Yan rarely lost her composure like this; in the past, even when encountering danger, she could force herself to remain calm and deal with it steadily.

Unfortunately, at this moment, she could not remain calm, nor could she suppress the sorrow in her heart, but she was, after all, a Fifth-rank Instructor; by circulating her Mental Power slightly, she forcibly suppressed her tear glands.

Although Instructor He Yan's voice was low, they were not far apart, and Li Zhangsheng heard her whisper, his eyes filled with confusion.

What is an Emperor Rank? Could it be an emperor or a feudal lord, or something else!

"Zhang Yi, what is an Emperor Rank?" Asking when one does not understand was Li Zhangsheng's strength, and besides, his deskmate was Zhang Yi from a County-level Clan, who surely knew many inside stories he was unaware of.

Compared to just a moment ago, Zhang Yi was much calmer, but his shoulders were still trembling; however, he still endured the sorrow and began to explain the meaning of Emperor Rank to Li Zhangsheng.

What is an Emperor Rank?

Emperor Rank has nothing to do with power and is not an ordinary emperor; only a Seventh-tier Beast Master is qualified to be called an Emperor Rank.

Seventh-tier Beast Masters are extremely rare, and it can be said that one person alone can suppress a nation; a small country like the Langya Kingdom only has a mere two or three.

For a small country, a Seventh-tier Beast Master is extremely important; once there is no Seventh-tier Beast Master to hold the fort, this country will have no protection to speak of and could be carved up by other countries at any time.

Even someone as strong as an Emperor Rank has the possibility of falling!

Li Zhangsheng thought silently, his heart filled with helplessness.

Judging from Instructor He Yan's words, an Emperor Rank had fallen this time, but it was unclear which one.

However, judging from the scope of the celestial phenomenon, it was possible that it was an Emperor Rank of the Langya Kingdom who had fallen!

Of course, it could also be from one of the surrounding countries.

Under these circumstances, Li Zhangsheng felt heavy-hearted; he naturally did not hope that it was an Emperor Rank of the Langya Kingdom who had fallen, otherwise the situation in the Langya Kingdom would inevitably become turbulent, and it might even face the possibility of being carved up by various countries.

Soon, the celestial phenomenon began to dissipate.

The earth stopped trembling, the sky stopped grieving, and the dark clouds, blood rainbows, and even the blood rain vanished in the blink of an eye, revealing a sky as clear as if washed, as if all the previous phenomena had been mere illusions.

On this day, the Human Path suffered a great tragedy; a king had fallen, Heaven and Earth Mourn Together, and for ten thousand miles around, Ten Thousand Beasts Bow to the Firmament, howling and crying in sorrow to see the king off!

"Alright, please return to your seats! I retract my previous words; although you are very weak, the fact that you are sitting here means you possess immense potential and good malleability, and among you, it is not impossible for a king to be born!"

Pausing slightly, Instructor He Yan continued: "Now I will describe to you the battle from three years ago, I only hope you will not be crushed by the pressure!"

Thank you very much to Divine Artifact Mengmengda for the ten-thousand-point reward!
