"Stop talking nonsense." Chen Zilu glared at him, "If you dare not take it, I'll return the necklace you gave me."
"Fine." Jiang Ye had no choice but to accept the jade piece, which was warm to the touch and carried a faint fragrance, seemingly Chen Zilu's scent.
But that wasn't all.
He could sense a divine light flashing within the jade, incredibly mystical.
"Senior sister, why are you suddenly giving me such an expensive gift?" Jiang Ye couldn't help asking.
"You gave me a necklace, I give you a jade."
Chen Zilu stated matter-of-factly, "This is called reciprocation, got it?"
"Reciprocation?" Jiang Ye shook his head helplessly.
The necklace he gifted Chen Zilu was worth only a million.
But this Enlightenment Divine Jade surely exceeded that value.
"Take good care of it."
"If you lose it," Chen Zilu snorted, "I won't bother with you anymore."
"How could I lose something given by my senior sister?" Jiang Ye laughed, "I promise to wear it for a lifetime."
Chen Zilu was taken aback and gave him a complex look but ultimately said nothing.
"How does my teacher treat you?" she asked.
"Pretty well." Jiang Ye replied honestly, "Just a bit tough on me."
"Tough on you?" Chen Zilu covered her mouth and laughed lightly, "That's how Elder Qiu is, you'll get used to it."
Jiang Ye said, "I thought my senior sister would plead on my behalf."
"You're dreaming." Chen Zilu huffed and continued, "Make sure you train well these days."
"In a few days,"
"Enter the White Dragon Court and strive to secure a Celestial Tier legacy." Chen Zilu said, "Otherwise, it'd be a wasted trip."
Jiang Ye nodded.
Even though Chen Zilu's words seemed a bit harsh,
for a genius like her, not obtaining a Celestial Tier legacy would indeed be a wasted trip.
If it was merely an Earth Tier legacy, Penglai University had those too.
Only Celestial Tier legacies are invaluable, possessed only by the top ten schools.
"Senior sister," Jiang Ye suddenly asked curiously, "What legacy did you get? Celestial Tier Upper?"
"Me?"
"No." Chen Zilu shook her head gently and smiled, "I got a First-level Starry Sky Civilization legacy."
"First-level Civilization legacy?" Jiang Ye was astonished.
A First-level Starry Sky Civilization has 'God' Realm entities.
The First-level Civilization legacy Chen Zilu spoke of is likely a path to the God Realm!
Without a doubt, such a legacy is certainly more valuable than Celestial Tier Upper.
"Senior sister is truly amazing." Jiang Ye said sincerely.
According to Teacher Zhu Honglie, the entire Blue Star Civilization only those with Extraordinary TALENT have God Realm legacies.
Chen Zilu is no less than those top-notch prodigies.
"Amazing, right?"
"Catching up to me is going to be very difficult," Chen Zilu blinked her peach-blossom-like eyes, appearing a bit playful at this moment.
Jiang Ye was momentarily dazed, then laughed.
"I will catch up to you," Jiang Ye said earnestly, "I just like challenging difficult things."
Chen Zilu watched his serious expression, her rosy lips slightly curving up.
"All right."
"You should go back now." Her brows arched as if in a good mood, "I also need to get back to training."
"In six days, I'm looking forward to hearing your good news."
Jiang Ye nodded but glanced behind the girl at the grand buildings.
"Want to visit my home?"
Chen Zilu seemed to read his thoughts, she said with a smile, "Sure, if you're ready to meet my elders."
"Senior sister's place is too far from my teacher's," Jiang Ye shook his head, "I better head back."
Meet the elders?
Too soon.
Jiang Ye wasn't ready; he knew well that Chen Zilu was backed by an Extraordinary noble family.
Without absolute strength, the current Jiang Ye still seemed insignificant against such a behemoth.
"Senior sister, I'm off!"
Jiang Ye waved goodbye and then turned into a streak of flowing light, departing.
At the gate.
Chen Zilu retracted her gaze and raised her hands to carefully cradle the starry gleam at her chest, examining it closely.
She wasn't particularly interested in necklaces nor fond of auspicious beasts.
But for some reason, this necklace featuring auspicious beasts as its central theme appealed to her aesthetics.
"It's quite pretty." Chen Zilu gently stroked the necklace with her slender fingers, her lips curving slightly.
After a moment.
The girl turned and walked towards her home, her eyes regaining their calm.
In her white dress, she seemed to transform back into that aloof and charming Grotto Fairy, her chest adorned with a faint starry glow, making her even more distant and enchanting.
...
Life as an advanced student at White Dragon University was intensely packed.
After returning home, Jiang Ye had no time to rest and began a new day of cultivation.
By six in the morning, he set out from home, heading towards the 108th-floor classroom.
The next five days.
Following a strict routine, day in and day out.
Every day, Jiang Ye spent in extremely intense cultivation and actual combat.
...
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it was February 12th, the sixth day of the advanced training schedule.
It was a little past ten in the evening.
Inside the 108th-floor training room.
"Jiang Ye, you're done for today." Qiu Cang looked at Jiang Ye, rarely not letting him train until midnight.
Because tomorrow is the day of the White Dragon Court experience.
At this kind of time, it's better to relax a little.
"Understood." Jiang Ye put away his spear and walked toward Qiu Cang.
"How do you feel about these six days of training?" Qiu Cang looked at him with a smile.
"I feel great," Jiang Ye earnestly said, "Teacher's teaching method suits me very well."
"Haha."
"I didn't expect you to actually stick with it," Qiu Cang stroked his beard and laughed, "And you've maintained it for six consecutive days."
"The most crucial thing is that your progress has surprised me."
Qiu Cang's eyes were filled with appreciation.
These six days have changed his view of Jiang Ye quite a bit.
It's not just Jiang Ye's perseverance.
It's even more his student's speed of progress that surprised him.
"Without Teacher's guidance," Jiang Ye said solemnly, "I definitely couldn't have made such progress."
In the course of six days.
Jiang Ye has grown more and more respectful towards Teacher Qiu Cang.
Not because Qiu Cang is so strict, but because his teaching has indeed enormously elevated Jiang Ye.
Jiang Ye glanced at the panel.
[Nine Luminaries Star Stepping: Minor Success (99%)]
[Great Sun Spear Technique: Great Success (29%)]
[Celestial Tribulation Fist: Minor Success (99%)]
——
In just six days, one Earth Tier Starry Sky Secret Technique and two Profound Tier Upper Art Techniques have all received considerable improvement.
This is merely six days!
Such progress is truly rare.
"Nine Luminaries Star Stepping and Celestial Tribulation Fist are just a step away from Great Success."
"Great Sun Spear Technique is also just 1% away from mastering the Fourth Move—'Sea Burning,'" Jiang Ye thought to himself, "All three are stuck in a major bottleneck period."
The most commendable thing about Qiu Cang is his teaching.
It allows Jiang Ye to instantly overcome minor bottlenecks.
But major bottlenecks? Even Qiu Cang doesn't have many solutions.
It's up to Jiang Ye to break through on his own.
Even if someone like Chen Zilu, who is such a master, is willing to tirelessly help Jiang Ye break through again, he may not necessarily grasp that moment of opportunity.
But regardless.
The Jiang Ye of today is a world of change from the six days ago.
"Tomorrow, you will enter the White Dragon Court," Qiu Cang said, "Perform well, and I hope you'll at least obtain the Upper Earth Tier inheritance."
"I will not disappoint you, Teacher," Jiang Ye replied solemnly.
"Hmm." Qiu Cang nodded, then looked at Tang Wuji not far away and said, "Tang Wuji, you'll also be entering the White Dragon Court tomorrow."
"If the inheritance you receive is inferior to Jiang Ye's, I'll arrange for Shi Ting to spar with you for the next semester."
Tang Wuji's face changed drastically.
Instinctively, he looked towards the genteel young girl not far away.
Shi Ting, among them, is a girl at the Peak of Second Break.
Her strength far surpasses Tang Wuji.
If he were to spar with Shi Ting? He would definitely be beaten badly.
"I will definitely obtain the Celestial Tier inheritance!" Tang Wuji shouted, clenching his fist.
"..." Jiang Ye was speechless for a moment.
Teacher Qiu really doesn't forget to provoke him even on the last day!
However.
"Celestial Tier inheritance?" Jiang Ye thought to himself, "I will certainly obtain it."
He even had an ambition, which is to acquire an even higher level inheritance!
...
Time flew by.
After Jiang Ye returned home, he still did not forget to diligently cultivate.
At one in the morning, he entered the Martial Arts Celestial Ladder on time, experiencing the tempering of the Martial Arts Will in the massage room.
The night passed quickly.
February 13th, the last day of Jiang Ye's advanced training schedule at White Dragon University.
He set out early, looking towards the towering building shaped like a dragon's head in the center of White Dragon University.
"White Dragon Court." Jiang Ye whispered to himself, his form becoming a streak of flowing light, heading straight in that direction.
