Fairy Tail: I Am the God

The purpose of this person's arrival was simple: Leon and his companions had received the fifth-place reward, which allowed them to enter the library and choose a treasure they liked.

After exchanging greetings, the three of them headed towards the academy's library under the guidance of their instructor.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Leon and his two companions entered a room led by their academy instructor. In this spacious and bright room, bookshelves were crisscrossed, filled with all sorts of antique books.

The room exuded a scholarly atmosphere, and at this moment, in the center of the room, a man and a woman stood quietly behind the table in front of them.

An elderly man with a white beard was slowly flipping through the documents in his hands, and the entire room was in a state of silence.

"The three of you are here?"

Looking at the three of them getting along so well, Hu Qian felt extremely gratified. He also wore a warm smile and said with a smile.

"Vice Dean!" Xiao Yan and the other two nodded and said.

"Since you're all here, I won't waste any more time. You should understand why I called you here."

Standing up from his chair, Hu Qian smiled and said, "You are the top five in this year's selection competition. According to the rules, you are qualified to enter the library to try your luck."

As he spoke, Hu Qian walked to the wall behind him and casually clapped his hands a few times. A deep rumbling sound rang out, and then a dark passage appeared in front of the five of them.

"Come with me."

After waving to the five people, Hu Qian took the lead and entered the dark passage. Hu Jia, who was full of curiosity, followed without hesitation, followed by Wu Hao and Xiao Yan.

Upon entering the passage, the five discovered that the walls were inlaid with large, luminous pearls.

The soft glow cast a hazy, dreamlike light over the passageway.

Chapter 408, Canaan Academy, Library. (First Update)

After walking for a full five or six minutes, Hu Qian led the five people to the end of the passage. With the last step, the five people walked out of the passage one after another.

A blinding glare shone down from the sky, causing the five to instinctively close their eyes slightly. After a while, they slowly opened them and were somewhat surprised by the scene before them.

Before the five of them lay a valley, its steep walls rising ever higher until they reached the horizon, nestled between three sheer cliffs.

There happened to be a very spacious open space, and on that open space, a huge, imposing, and ancient-looking pavilion stood.

His gaze slowly swept over the massive, ancient pavilion, finally settling on an extremely old-looking plaque outside the pavilion.

Above, three characters, somewhat blurred by the erosion of time, are faintly visible.

Library!

Despite the ravages of time, the ancient characters still deeply impressed Xiao Yan and the others with their rustic and profound artistic conception.

As expected of the mysterious library in the outer courtyard of Canaan Academy, this plaque alone reveals its identity.

Hu Qian led the five people slowly towards the library, but stopped abruptly when they were about twenty meters away, and said in a solemn tone:

"The top five in this year's Inner Court Selection Competition have been determined. As per the rules, I have brought them here. Please, elders, open the door!"

Hu Qian's words, carried by fighting spirit, lingered in the small valley for a long time.

Shortly after Hu Qian finished speaking, the pupils of the group, which had been fixed on the library, suddenly contracted, and their gazes shifted sharply.

The last two figures in gray robes, sitting cross-legged at the main entrance, had clearly seen when they entered that there wasn't a single person in sight!

Now, however, the two gray-robed figures were sitting there as if they had always been there. This eerie scene sent a chill down the spines of the five people, filling them with shock.

However, despite their shock, their interest in the library grew stronger. For Canaan Academy to treat it with such seriousness, the things stored inside must be extraordinary.

"Two peak Dou Zong, probably the most powerful figures in Canaan Academy besides Mang Tianchi."

Leon looked at the two gray-robed old men, a flash of clarity crossing his mind.

"The top five this year are outstanding. It seems that Canaan Academy is about to produce some powerful geniuses!"

The gray-robed elder swept his gaze over the five people, his eyes lingering on Xiao Yan, Leon, and Xun'er for a few seconds before he smiled and spoke to Hu Qian.

"Just as the two elders said, this assessment has indeed selected several outstanding geniuses!" Hu Qian said, bowing his head.

"Well, since the five of you have won, according to the academy's rules, you can go into this library to choose your fighting techniques and cultivation methods!"

The two gray-robed elders nodded slightly as they looked at Xiao Yan and the others.

Then, two gray-robed figures slowly emerged from their sleeves, revealing two pairs of withered hands. They then began to meticulously form hand seals, one finger at a time. As their hand seals were formed...

The five could clearly feel two extremely powerful, invisible waves emanating from their palms, spreading out like waves until they finally made contact with the spatial folds.

Upon contact, the space in front of Xiao Yan and the others immediately rippled like a mirror made of water. After a moment, the ripples stopped, and an invisible hand slowly tore open a door-shaped opening.

"As for what this is, I won't tell you, you wouldn't understand anyway. Now, come with me into the library!"

Hu Qian waved his hand as he looked at Xiao Yan and the others who were puzzled, and took the lead into the library.

The group exchanged glances and then followed the others into the library.

"Now you may enter the library on your own. Remember this: whatever you desire, do not force it, because everything inside is imbued with an energy layer."

If your hands can pass through the energy layer without any hindrance, then you will be able to take what's inside.

Of course, no matter how much you can pick up, you can only take one thing out of the library. Don't be greedy, or you'll end up with nothing.

"If you cannot penetrate the energy layers, then give up. With your strength, you cannot break through them."

Every year, people enter the library, but quite a few leave empty-handed. Therefore, everything is predestined; don't force things you can't have.

Pointing his right hand to the library, Hu Qian turned to Xiao Yan and the others.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan and the others nodded, exchanged glances, and then slowly walked towards the library.

As they walked, Leon and his group of five passed through the dilapidated front yard and arrived at the gate of the library.

Unlike the other four, Leon didn't look at the captivating plaque and went straight into the library.

"call out!"

As soon as he entered the library, a huge ball of energy, shimmering with seven-colored light, rushed toward Leon's face, with powerful energy fluctuations surging on the ball of light.

"You came looking for me?" Leon raised an eyebrow, a surge of cold air emanating from his hand as he swiftly grabbed at the energy cluster.

"boom!"

The moment Leon's body grasped the seven-colored energy ball, it was thrown backward, with powerful impacts attempting to blast it away.

"Interesting." Leon smiled faintly, and instantly a pair of ice and lightning wings condensed behind him, his Dou Wang-level aura enveloping the entire library.

However, to Leon and his companions' astonishment, after Leon unleashed heavenly lightning and ice magic to condense his battle wings, the seven-colored light ball in Leon's hand automatically dissipated, revealing one of the scrolls inside!

On the seven-colored scroll, four large characters were written in a flowing, elegant style: Ice Thunder Emperor Fist!

What surprised Leon the most about this fighting technique wasn't the imposing name "Ice and Lightning Emperor Fist," but rather that it had no rank!

"Yunfei, what rank is this fighting technique? It requires you to use the strength of a Dou Wang to break it, so it must be a Dou Technique above the Earth Rank!"

Xiao Yan asked curiously.

"Well, this fighting technique, like your cultivation method, has no rank. I'll only know its specific power after I've practiced it."

Leon looked at the seven-colored scroll in his hand and said with a smile.

"No rank!"

Xiao Yan was stunned at first, then stared in shock at the seven-colored scroll in Leon's hand.

Xiao Yan, who possessed the Burning Technique, knew that although this kind of unranked technique was very weak in combat in the early stages, it would have power comparable to a Heaven-rank technique once his strength increased!

"I really didn't expect that there would be such a powerful treasure in the library of Canaan Academy." Xiao Yan curled his lips, feeling quite helpless about Leon's good luck.

"Now that I've found something that suits me, aren't you guys going to hurry up and make the move?"

Leon looked at Xiao Yan's envious expression and said speechlessly.

"Yes, yes, let's start searching quickly! Even if we can't get a high-level fighting skill like Yunfei's, we still need to get a low-level fighting skill!"

Xiao Yan nodded and hurriedly walked into the library.

Chapter 409, No Rank, Ice and Thunder Emperor Fist. (Second Update)

"Are unranked fighting techniques really that powerful?" Hu Jia asked in a low voice, looking at the fighting technique in Leon's hand.

"I don't know. I've never seen any unranked combat techniques before, let alone their power!" Xun'er said helplessly.

"They're both so excited, it seems like this fighting technique is really powerful. Ice Lightning Emperor Fist, just the name sounds amazing!"

Hu Jia nodded.

"It's all about fate. We'll find out what we get once we get there!"

Xun'er nodded and followed Xiao Yan's footsteps.

"Ice and Lightning Emperor Fist is a combined fighting technique of ice and lightning battle qi, and it has no rank. If possible, I should be able to upgrade it to the super god rank. At that time, I can destroy the world with a single punch."

Leon stored his fighting skills in his storage ring and accompanied the others deeper into the library.

"Not bad, a low-level Earth-rank combat skill! And it's even a niche Earth-rank combat skill like sonic wave."

Seeing that Xiao Yan had obtained the Lion Tiger Shattering Gold Chant, Leon clapped his hands and laughed.

"What a load of crap! It's so much worse than the fighting techniques you've obtained!"

Xiao Yan said helplessly.
