Douluo Continent: The Sky Revealed, What the Hell is Honkai Academy?

Chapter 88 Qianrenxue's Return to the Heart, the False Light of the Offering Hall
At that moment, a golden figure trembled slightly in the crowd; it was Qian Renxue.

The six-winged angel martial spirit within her body resonated strongly with the temple in the sky, and the projection of the [Archangel's Sword] exerted an unparalleled attraction on her.

She could sense that if she obtained that projection, her angelic divine test would be greatly accelerated!
But she also heard Zhang Yi's words and sensed the indifferent attitude of the academy's teachers and students towards the inheritance of angels.

This filled her with inner conflict.

On one hand, it was the call of her bloodline and her lifelong pursuit; on the other hand, it was her current identity as a student of the Honkai Academy and her increasingly profound awe of Zhang Yi, as well as... a sense of indescribable closeness.

She took a deep breath, mustered her courage, walked up to Zhang Yi, bowed slightly, and said earnestly and firmly, "Dean."

Zhang Yi turned his gaze to her, his expression calm and unwavering.

Qian Renxue continued, "The Angel Temple resonates strongly with my bloodline, and the projection of that divine artifact is crucial to my divine examination. I... I wish to return to Wuhun City to try again, and I humbly request the Dean's permission."

She waited anxiously for a response, fearing that her connection with the Spirit Hall might displease the Dean.

However, Zhang Yi simply smiled calmly, as if he had already expected it: "Pursuing power and breaking through one's own limits is what every student should do. Since you feel this way, you should go."

He even flicked his finger, and a silver rune containing fluctuations of spatial laws landed in Qian Renxue's hand.

"This is a spatial beacon, which can help you travel between the academy and Wuhun City in an instant, saving you the trouble of traveling. Remember, you are both the inheritor of the Angel God and a student of my Honkai Academy. I hope you will not forget the academy's teachings: power is neither good nor evil; the key lies in the heart that wields power."

Holding the warm, smooth rune in her hand, Qian Renxue felt the vast spatial power within it. Upon hearing Zhang Yi's words, which not only permitted but also supported and guided her, her heart was immediately filled with immense joy and emotion.

She bowed deeply, her voice choked with emotion: "Thank you, Dean! I will never forget your guidance and mentorship!"

At this moment, her sense of belonging to Honkai Impact 3rd Academy became stronger than ever before.

……

Wuhun Hall, Worship Hall.

Qian Daoliu stood quietly before the angel statue, looking at the familiar temple on the golden list, feeling the divine power that was even more active and approachable due to the reward from Heaven.

Even Qian Daoliu's usually calm and collected face showed a look of relief and excitement.

"The radiance of the angels, recognized by the Heavenly Dao, is truly well-deserved! Xue'er... she should be at the Honkai Academy right now, she must have sensed it too!"

His tone was filled with piety and anticipation, "That projection of the Archangel's Sword is rightfully hers!"

His expression immediately turned solemn as he looked at the worshippers behind him: "Issue the order! From this day forward, the protection level of the Angel Temple will be raised to the highest level! Except for Xue'er, no one is allowed to approach the core of the altar!"

"Golden Crocodile, Azure Phoenix, Lion... you must take turns on guard duty and never allow any outsider to have the slightest opportunity to defile the sacredness of the temple!"

"I will obey the High Priest's command!"

All the worshippers responded in unison, their expressions solemn.

The Temple of Angels is the core of their faith, and they must not allow it to be lost.

……

Pope's Palace.

Bibi Dong looked at the Angel Temple with cold eyes and a mocking smile on her lips.

"False light... Heaven seems to favor your thousand families."

The Rakshasa divine power around her fluctuated slightly, revealing her inner turmoil.

However, she had mixed feelings about the possibility that Qian Renxue might gain assistance from this.

There was an instinctive aversion to the power of the angels, and a fear of the even greater strength of the Qian Daoliu lineage, but deep down, there was also a trace of something extremely faint, something she herself was unwilling to admit... a mother's recognition of her daughter's strength.

"Hmph, so what if you've obtained the position of an angel? Once my position as a Rakshasa god is fully secured, I'll still be able to trample you under my feet!"

She eventually suppressed these complex emotions and transformed them into a stronger motivation to cultivate.

……

Star Forest, Lake of Life.

Gu Yuena's silver hair fluttered, and her purple eyes glanced indifferently at the Angel Temple in the sky, a hint of undisguised disgust flashing in them.

"The land of the gods' lackeys... is filled with a nauseating, self-righteous aura of order."

Her clear, cold voice carried a chilling edge, "Back in the Dragon God War, these so-called gods of light had a lot of my people's blood on their hands."

Di Tian roared, his dragon eyes flashing with ferocity: "My lord, once we have accumulated enough power, when we invade the human world, we will first raze this birdman's temple to the ground to pay tribute to our ancestors!"

Bear King brandished his dark golden claws and roared, "That's right! It's an eyesore! What kind of bullshit light is this? I, Bear King, will smash it to pieces with one slap!"

The Demon King, Zi Ji, and other ferocious beasts also expressed their hatred for the lands of divine inheritance. To the soul beasts, these places were symbols of divine suppression.

Gu Yuena nodded slightly and gave the order: "Remember this place. If there is an opportunity in the future, we can act accordingly."

"Even if we cannot completely destroy it, we should try our best to disrupt its heritage and weaken the foundation of the divine realm in the human world. Anything that can strike at the power of the divine realm is worth doing."

……

Inside the Haotian Sect, Tang Xiao and the elders looked at the sky with solemn expressions.

"The Temple of Angels...the lifeblood of the Spirit Hall."

Tang Xiao said in a deep voice, his tone filled with helplessness, "Although my Haotian Hammer is strong, it is ultimately... alas" when facing the inheritance of the gods.

Lieyang Douluo slammed his fist on the table in frustration, but then put it down helplessly.
"Are we just supposed to watch the Spirit Hall grow stronger and stronger? The Angel Temple has received Heavenly rewards, and if that girl Qian Renxue becomes a god..."

Everyone fell silent, a deep sense of defeat settling over them.

Faced with absolute god-like power, their former pride seemed so pale.

……

Among the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, Yu Yuanzhen was even more dejected.

After a series of setbacks, he no longer had much desire to compete.

"The inheritance of gods... I, Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus, can hardly even make it onto the list, let alone compete with the gods."

He shook his head bitterly, "Now, I only hope to follow the Honkai Academy closely and seek a glimmer of hope for my race."

The appearance of the Angel Temple, like a cornerstone that has been firmly established for the Spirit Hall amidst the turbulent continental landscape, also clearly reflects the transcendence and power of the Honkai Academy.

Zhang Yi's attitude of looking down on the gods not only calmed the hearts of his followers but also sent a chill down the spines of all his adversaries.

The Opportunities Ranking is subtly changing the mindset and future choices of every power on the continent.

The golden light of the Heavenly Ranking did not cease, and the holy radiance of the Angel Temple gradually receded. The scene in the sky suddenly shifted, plunging into a chilling dark red!
