When Gu Ning arrived at the hall of the National Master’s Institute, he indeed saw a middle-aged woman accompanied by a young woman around his age.
The middle-aged woman sneered upon seeing Gu Ning, "Gu National Preceptor, you have quite the air, making wait."
Gu Ning did not get angry, nor did he bow down.
The Human Race naturally has its dignity, even if they are no match for the Divine Race, he is, after all, a national preceptor.
So Gu Ning went straight to the point and said:
"There are still two years left for the centennial agreent. It is quite normal that I am unaware of your ergence."
"Are you implying that my master is being unreasonable?" The young woman replied defensively upon hearing this.
Gu Ning rely gave a faint smile and said, "I did not an that; those are your words."
The disciple beside him then leaned over and whispered the origin of their opponents to Gu Ning.
They had co from the Dubhe Pavilion, and their identities had just been reported.
The middle-aged woman’s na was Gu Qing, and the young woman’s na was Gu Xue.
When the system of the Divine Race was initially established, although talents from all over the world were widely recruited, in order to maintain unity among the races, it was stipulated that anyone joining the Divine Race must abandon their original nas and accept new nas given by their families.
For example, Phoenix starts with the ancient surna ’Gu’.
The Dragon Race uses the Xuanyuan surna.
Thus, they were also known as the Ancient Race or the Xuanyuan Clan.
"Please, both of you, co inside." Gu Ning did not want to offend them and made a gesture of invitation.
Unexpectedly, Gu Qing did not give face and said, "We are here to investigate a case."
"Oh?"
Gu Ning was not foolish. The other party must have first gone to the Dubhe Pavilion before coming here; it must be related to the National Master’s Institute.
"Is it related to the National Master’s Institute?" Gu Ning asked.
"Simply put, it’s related to your ntor, Zhong Nan." Gu Qing quickly said, "Eight years ago, a Phoenix left the Ancient Race and wandered the world, eventually killed by your ntor, Zhong Nan."
Gu Ning’s pupils suddenly shrank upon hearing this.
He knew about this matter.
Back then, this Phoenix erged, causing chaos everywhere, slaughtering civilians, setting fire to cities and forests.
Initially, all major forces knew it originated from the Ancient Race and dared not take action. In the end, it was Zhong Nan who made a powerful stand to suppress it.
Originally intending to send it back to the Ancient Race, unexpectedly, that Phoenix dared to mock the Human Race and Zhong Nan on the spot, resulting in Zhong Nan killing it to uphold the Human Race’s prestige.
In this matter, Gu Ning had great admiration for Zhong Nan.
He did what many others dared not imagine because if this Phoenix were allowed to live, the Human Race’s prestige would be shattered instantly.
Gu Ning spoke, "That Phoenix first violated the centennial agreent."
"We are not saying it was not in the wrong," Gu Qing said, "but its bloodline is still that of the Ancient Race."
Gu Ning was taken aback.
It’s dead, and they want to retrieve the bloodline?
"Given its strength at that ti, it could be refined into 20 drops of essence blood." Gu Qing said, "I need to know where Zhong Nan used the Phoenix Essence Blood."
Gu Ning imdiately understood...
This Divine Race is truly arrogant and domineering. After killing so many of the Human Race, before the Human Race settled matters with them, they ca to claim the Phoenix Essence Blood.
"I suppose the National Master’s Institute has records regarding the Phoenix Essence Blood, right?" Gu Qing said.
Gu Ning pondered for a mont and suddenly had an idea, saying, "After that Phoenix was slain, the essence blood should be with the teacher, but I’m not sure."
"However, I heard sothing lately."
Gu Qing frowned as Gu Ning continued, "The teacher previously had a disciple nad Bai Ling, the one who slayed the Nine Netherworld Snake."
Gu Qing heard this and did not seem frightened but felt a bit apprehensive.
She was aware of this matter.
"In the past, the teacher, in order to protect Bai Ling, made a deal with a man nad Lin Chen. The teacher gave him 11 drops of Phoenix Essence Blood as compensation..." Gu Ning said.
"Lin Chen?" Gu Qing naturally had not heard of his na and proceeded to ask, "Where is he now?"
"He should be at the Spirit Academy." Gu Ning naturally had no fondness for Lin Chen and quickly said, "Not only I but many people in the Dubhe Pavilion know about this."
"As for where the remaining 9 drops of essence blood went, I have no idea."
"Alright, I hope you’re not lying to ."
After saying this, Gu Qing left with Gu Xue. Gu Ning thought the matter had passed, but just as he turned, he heard Gu Xue’s voice:
"Is this the supre National Preceptor of the Human Race? Seems so weak; I suppose I could easily subdue him."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ning clenched his fist.
Although he is not the ultimate combat power right now, with the Ancestral Dragon Power, he could easily slay peers like her.
This scene was witnessed by the disciple behind him, who didn’t dare to breathe a word.
The closer the disciple got to Gu Ning, the more he felt Gu Ning’s aura and pressure becoming more terrifying.
"Keep a close watch on their movents," Gu Ning said.
"Do we need to inform the Spirit Academy in advance?" the disciple asked.
"No need."
After saying this, Gu Ning turned and walked into the courtyard.
....
Lin Chen did not know, he was at ho, and trouble arose from the heavens.
Currently, he was waiting for Xiaobai to reach level sixty.
Finally, on a rainy night, Xiaobai opened his eyes, officially reaching level sixty.
Lin Chen was overjoyed; the evolution materials sent from the Dubhe Pavilion had arrived, and the auxiliary materials he requested from the dicine repository were all ready.
This ans, just waiting for Xiaobai to rest for two days, and the evolution can comnce.
Once Xiaobai succeeds, Lin Chen will have his first Divine Beast in the truest sense.
At that ti, when competing with others, the quality gap would be completely offset.
Lin Chen restrained his excitent, letting Xiaobai rest carefully.
After nearly three days, Xiaobai finally restored to the optimal state, and was deed ready for evolution by Liu Gu.
"Xiaobai, if you get through this ti, it will be a vast ocean and sky ahead," Lin Chen said with a smile.
An Immortal Beast cannot evolve through recipes; it can only enter the Immortal Realm by force through its own insight.
Thus, the Divine Beast realm is the highest man-controlled limit achievable.
Xiaobai nodded, ever since the beast chaos, Xiaobai eagerly wanted to enhance its combat power because Xiaobai knew clearly Lin Chen’s situation was not good, if not for Qin Shaoshao and the others protecting him, Lin Chen might have already died.
On that day, after all preparations were done, Liu Gu administered the dicine in the boiler, then let Xiao Hong start the fire.
Xiao Hong, the tool fox, was becoming increasingly skilled, prompting Liu Gu to laugh and say, "Why don’t you contract a Wood Elent spirit and beco a Catalyst Master with ?"
Lin Chen chuckled bitterly, having little interest in being a Catalyst Master, though he could consider it.
After all, Catalyst Masters were in demand.
"Go in." When the boiler was boiled, and the dicinal effect dispersed, Liu Gu said to Xiaobai.
Xiaobai glanced back at Lin Chen and the others before stepping into the boiler.
Unexpectedly, the Great Elder arrived, looking serious.
"What’s the matter?"
"Xiaobai is about to evolve; why didn’t you inform ?" The Great Elder looked up at the sky and said, "Xiaobai, as one with Divine and Demonic Power, there’s a high chance a heavenly tribulation will be drawn when evolving to the Divine Beast realm."
"What should we do then?" Liu Gu worried, this is within the Spirit Academy.
"No worries, I’ve already arranged for students to evacuate."
