Douluo Dragon King: Nine Dragons Break the Abyss

Chapter 246 At this moment, the stars are shining!
"This observatory is the private property of your hospital. I'm sure you will feel embarrassed to lend it out for free." Qiangu Qitian said with a smile, "How about this, Director? I will exchange it for three places for the intermediate spirit-raising platforms this year. What do you think?"

"What? Three places for the intermediate level spirit-raising platform!"

Even Li Zhilong, who was born in Shrek Academy, was shocked by Qiangu Qitian's handwriting.

In his opinion, the right to use the Observatory is not as good as the quota to use an intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform, and the two are not equal at all.

Not only Li Zhilong, but the group of teachers following him also looked surprised.

Every year, the Tianding Xingkong Soul Master Academy spends a huge amount of money to purchase five places on the intermediate spirit-raising platforms for use by the academy's top students.

In addition to the intermediate spirit-raising platform, there are also twenty places for the primary spirit-raising platform.

Of course, the price of five intermediate spirit-raising platforms is much higher than that of twenty primary spirit-raising platforms.

This amount of money alone accounts for five percent of the college's funds.

This is 5% of a college's annual budget, which shows how huge the profits are.

Qiangu Qitian took in everyone's expressions and knew that the exchange was most likely successful.

Free things are often the most expensive, and Qiangu Qitian doesn't want to owe anyone such a favor.

What's more, a place on the Spirit Ascension Platform, which is priceless in the outside world, can be easily obtained by Qiangu Qitian.

"It's too expensive." After calming down, Li Zhilong shook his head and said, "The price you offered is too high. The value of the observatory is far less than that. If you want to use it, just exchange it for a quota."

Li Zhilong made what he thought was the most reasonable choice at the moment.

He thought that Qiangu Qitian had heard some unrealistic news about the observatory from somewhere and exaggerated the role of the observatory.

It is absolutely irrational to take advantage of Qiangu Qitian.

Qiangu Qitian was also moved by Li Zhilong's sincerity. He did not expect that Shrek Academy could actually cultivate such a person.

"Director Li, your sincerity has touched me. My offer remains unchanged. Not only that, I will also give you three thousand-year souls as a gift."

Qiangu Qitian began his "big money-spending" behavior.

This is not a spur-of-the-moment thought.

He did not forget that this academy has a military background.

Making friends with the federal army will only benefit Qiangu Qitian, not harm him.

Who knows, it might come in handy someday.

Seeing that Li Zhilong wanted to refuse again, Qiangu Qitian's expression became a little cold: "Director Li, even if you don't give me face, you have to give face to my grandfather."

Li Zhilong was also frightened by Qiangu Qitian's sudden change. He asked cautiously, "Who is your grandfather?"

"Eternal Love, Dieting."

Everyone:! ! !
What spread in the soul master world was the news that Qiangu Dieting had become a god, but the relationship between Qiangu Qitian and Qiangu Dieting was not deliberately spread.

Of course, it is not difficult to find out this news.

"So it's the grandson of His Majesty. Since you have made up your mind, I can't refuse any more."

Li Zhilong, who already respected Qiangu Qitian very much, actually showed a hint of humility.

In this matter, his Tianding Xingkong Soul Master Academy was taking advantage. If he doesn't know what's good for him, he will lose his position as the Dean.

"follow me."

Li Zhilong walked in front, leading the way for Qiangu Qitian.

However, he had moved half a step to Qiangu Qitian's side from his original position where he shared the main seat with Qiangu Qitian, leaving the center position completely to Qiangu Qitian.

Learn it, it’s all knowledge.

The main teaching building of Tianding Xingguang Soul Master Academy is very spectacular, and the overall exterior design is like a huge silver torch standing on the ground. The "torch" is nearly 100 meters high, and it is impossible to tell from the outside how many floors it has.

After entering the teaching building, what Qiangu Qitian saw was a spiral staircase.

Li Zhilong explained:

"Our academy's teaching building is not designed with soul guide straight stairs. This is done to improve the physical fitness of the students."

Qiangu Qitian did not comment too much on other people's teaching methods.

But he and Xu Xiaoyan did not use these stairs to exercise.

"Director Li, is the observatory on the top floor?"

Although Li Zhilong didn't know what this meant, he nodded subconsciously and said, "The observatory is on the dome of the main teaching building."

After getting a positive answer, Qiangu Qitian directly picked up Xu Xiaoyan beside him. A silver-white light flashed around him, and he and Xu Xiaoyan disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Li Zhilong and those teachers were stunned for a moment, but they quickly realized that Qiangu Qitian had used the power of the space element.

"The Coiled Dragon Stick... When did it have a spatial element? Could it be, twin martial spirits?"

Li Zhilong was bound by inertial thinking.

He could never have imagined that the Panlong Stick that Qiangu Qitian had was coiled with nine dragons.

The next moment, Qiangu Qitian and Xu Xiaoyan arrived at the top floor.

There is a huge open-air hall on the top floor. It has no dome and faces the sky directly.

Xu Xiaoyan's expression was still a little dazed. She hadn't even reacted to what had happened yet, and she appeared here.

This was the first time Xu Xiaoyan came into contact with the space element in person, and it was completely different from the last time she saw Luo Guixing use the space element.

"so amazing."

For a moment, Xu Xiaoyan even forgot to struggle symbolically in Qiangu Qitian's arms.

Soon, Li Zhilong led a group of teachers to fly up from underground.

As teachers at the Tianding Xingkong Soul Master Academy, their martial spirits also need to have the ability to fly.

Li Zhilong smiled and said, "It's not difficult to see the starry sky. You will be able to see it later. Our observatory is somewhat unique. Whether it is day or night, once it is activated, it can shorten the distance between us and space, and we can directly see the starry sky at a closer distance."

"The large soul guide array of the observatory draws the star power in space into the observatory, providing the purest energy to help our students practice. Only outstanding disciples are allowed to practice here at specific times. Usually, most of the people here are graduate students. They use star power to temper themselves and their battle armor."

“It’s really amazing.”

This made Qiangu Qitian think of Zhenhua’s forging table in Mingdu.

The two seem to have the same purpose.

"Excuse me, do we need to activate the observatory now?"

Li Zhilong asked with a smile.

Having concluded such a big deal, he would definitely get his bonus this year. If he saved up a little more, gritted his teeth, and took out a loan, he would have a place to buy his three-character battle armor. Thinking of this, Li Zhilong's smile became even brighter.

"Let's get started, please."

Qiangu Qitian nodded.

Li Zhilong asked the teachers to leave first. After he notified the control room to activate the soul guide array, a strange scene happened.

"Om-"

A buzzing sound was heard, and the walls around the entire observatory lit up. The gorgeous patterns on them seemed to come alive under the halo. The halo rushed into the air and turned into rays of light. Hundreds of rays of light gathered at one point in the air and turned into a huge pillar of light that shot up into the sky.

The sky began to darken the next moment, and all the golden light disappeared in a short time. The surrounding walls were still magnificent, but the daylight had turned into an endless starry sky, and the stars seemed to be close at hand. A strange and pure energy descended from the sky, bathing the entire observatory.

These starlights are not virtual projections, but real existence at this moment.

The stars are always shining, but their light during the day is completely obscured by the sunlight.

"Well?"

Xu Xiaoyan, who was standing next to Qiangu Qitian, let out a "hmm". A brilliant golden light shone on her body, and that golden light took the form of light mist. The golden light mist rose so high that even people who were close to her could not see her appearance.

Li Zhilong's eyes lit up slightly. As the Dean of Studies at the Tianding Xingkong Soul Master Academy, he could tell at a glance what the golden light mist on Xu Xiaoyan's body was.

Different students have different degrees of perception and absorption of star power. The more in tune with the star power, the stronger the star power fluctuations that appear on the observatory will be, and the depth of gold displayed will also be different.

The golden light mist of Xu Xiaoyan is one of the strongest forms of star power fluctuations. This kind of phenomenon is also called concrete manifestation.

Qiangu Qitian glanced at Li Zhilong standing aside, and Li Zhilong immediately understood.

He bowed slightly to Qiangu Qitian, and then left the observatory.

At the same time, all the personnel in the control room also evacuated.

In the entire observatory area, Qiangu Qitian and Xu Xiaoyan were the only two people left.

This was the deal between Qiangu Qitian and Tianding Xingkong Soul Master Academy.

It is only natural to let them leave.

Xu Xiaoyan, dressed in a golden gauze dress, just stood there quietly. The ice-blue staff on her martial soul, the Star Wheel Ice Staff, seemed to be trembling slightly, while the pendant with star power on the top was shining brightly.

The power of the stars, which was originally an additional attribute, quietly took the active position with the blessing of the observatory.

And, that's not enough.

With the infusion of star power, the star power on the Star Wheel Ice Staff is expelling the ice element bit by bit!

Pure star power is definitely much stronger than ordinary ice elements.

Unless Xu Xiaoyan's ice element can reach the extreme strength of ice.

As time passed by little by little, with the continuous infusion of star power, Xu Xiaoyan's aura had undergone tremendous changes.

Suddenly, Xu Xiaoyan moved.

She raised the dazzlingly shining Star Wheel Ice Staff in her hand high above her head, and the next moment, thousands of starlights suddenly burst out. The strong starlight, in harmony with the stars in the sky, instantly filled the entire observatory.

At this moment, the whole world seemed to turn golden.

Xu Xiaoyan was surrounded by starlight all over her body, as if a goddess had descended. The golden starlight wove a dazzling glow on her body. On her forehead, a pattern appeared at some point, exactly the same as the star wheel on the top of her star wheel ice staff.

Zhou Tian's travels accompanied her star-studded release, and it seemed as if the light had become softer, as if they had found their master.

Xu Xiaoyan's body floated lightly, and bits of starlight quickly gathered towards her body.

The patterns of the entire observatory's magic array lit up, the stars in the sky became bright again, and countless starlights gathered towards her body madly.

Qiangu Qitian could feel that Xu Xiaoyan's aura was changing, and it was an essential change.

Martial Soul Mutation!
This is the scene that only appears when the martial soul mutates.

Xu Xiaoyan's petite body was madly absorbing the gifts of starlight. At this moment, she seemed to be the only master in this space.

She is the most dazzling existence under the starry sky!

Qiangu Qitian stood quietly aside, also bathed in the glory, and smiled with satisfaction.

The girl in front of me has finally grown up.

This wave of star power absorption lasted for more than an hour before Xu Xiaoyan's body slowly landed on the ground.

Many spots of light appeared on her body.

These photons vary in size, some are as small as rice grains, while others are as big as tangerines.

Qiangu Qitian roughly counted them and found that there were about three hundred and sixty-five light spots.

Xu Xiaoyan sat cross-legged on the ground, her soul power quietly circulating, the 365 golden light spots on her body flickering, and her Star Wheel Ice Staff was standing upright beside her.

The ice staff turned completely golden, especially the star wheel on the top. The inside seemed to become blurred, as if the stars in the sky were imprinted in it. Looking closely, it felt like looking up at the starry sky.

There is no doubt that Xu Xiaoyan's martial soul has completed its evolution.

Although the fluctuations of her soul power did not become much stronger, the feeling it gave people was that it became purer.

This is the result of being baptized by the power of the stars.

Not only that, under the influence of the starlight, Xu Xiaoyan's whole body became clear and there was an indescribable strangeness.

Qiangu Qitian guessed that Xu Xiaoyan's original martial soul should be immature, or defective.

Because he had heard Gu Yuena mention that the abilities displayed by Xu Xiaoyan's martial soul during the day and at night were completely different.

At the control level, it is obvious that the power of stars is stronger at night.

Although this defect will be gradually compensated as her cultivation level improves, for example, when she becomes a second-ring great soul master, she will be able to use the first soul skill of star power - Star Chain - during the day.

But if this defect continues to exist, it will definitely be a huge hidden danger for Xu Xiaoyan's future.

In this baptism of starlight, Xu Xiaoyan's martial soul was directly and completely transformed into a pure star wheel staff!

Xu Xiaoyan, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes after stabilizing his breath.

In those azure blue eyes, there was also a faint glimmer of the bright light from the stars.

The little Xu Xiaoyan seemed to have grown a little taller, but she still looked small. The girlish feeling was still there, but with a bit of nobility from the stars.

Qiangu Qitian asked with a smile: "Xiaoyan, how do you feel? Do you like this gift?"

Xu Xiaoyan was silent.

She seemed to have become very silent after arriving in Tianding City. Her original liveliness disappeared at some point.
