2786 Radiantly Shining
All the uninformed onlookers in the city buzzed with excitement. This was an exceedingly rare spectacle!
In Tempest City, where night had previously shrouded everything, a magnificent tapestry of white light now enveloped the entire area.
Every pair of eyes could only behold the dazzling, boundless radiance!
Qi Duo’s eyes widened in sheer astonishment. “Could this be possible?”
The heaven-ranked stone tablet was actually responding!
As Qiao Mu channeled her spiritual energy, threads of it flowed into the infused stone tablet.
The fierce tiger relief etched on the stone tablet seemed as if it might spring to life at any moment!
Even the scholars within the academy, who were engaged in intensive studies behind closed doors, were jolted by the tumult emanating from the radiant display.
As a group of students and mentors arrived in mid-air, they gaped in amazement at the young lady conducting the experiment on the main street of the academy.
“The Crown Prince Consort and the others have arrived!” Chen Baojia couldn’t help but blurt out, trailing the crowd toward the main academy’s mystical street. However, she found herself blocked in the rear by the bustling throng.
Zhongli Zhiwei clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with resentment. The memories of what transpired in Beiwang Great Woods left her feeling stifled and deeply aggrieved.
Crack! Amidst the uproar on the street, a keen-eared individual suddenly detected the sound of something cracking.
“Look! The stone tablet is cracking!” The exclamation came from the front row of the spectators.
All eyes were fixed on it. Indeed, the stone tablet illuminated by the young lady was gradually developing cracks, inch by inch.
Initially, the cracks appeared to form at a leisurely pace, starting as tiny fissures on the surface of the stone tablet.
However, right on the heels of that, something astonishing occurred.
The initial crack started to expand and spread, and before long, the stone tablet was covered in a web of intricate fissures.
With a resounding bang, the entire stone tablet disintegrated into powder within Qiao Mu’s grasp.
For a moment, the main academy’s bustling street fell into absolute silence.
As soon as the stone tablet shattered, Qiao Mu’s body reacted instinctively, reaching out to seize a radiant green figure.
Unfortunately, Little Fourth proved swifter than a rabbit, slipping through her grasp in an instant.
Only Mo Lian, Duan Yue, and a few others witnessed this elusive emerald glow.
Qiao Mu furrowed her brow and discreetly retracted her petite hand.
It appeared that this fourth fragment was quite mischievous. Despite having developed some level of intelligence, it had managed to evade capture.
The unrepentant Little One would need to expend some effort to rescue it from the stone tablet.
/Oh wel, there was no need to rush this matter. After all, this little fellow couldn’t wander beyond the confines of Tempest City./
In any case, the main body of the sacred wood remained tethered here, so it could only roam freely for a limited time.
Miss Qiao was quite lenient with her own companions. Even though Qiuqiu incessantly chattered in her ear, insisting, “Beat it to death, beat it to death, beat it to death!” she chose to turn a deaf ear to its antics.
Qiao Mu withdrew her petite hand and turned to Dean Yun. “Did I pass?” she inquired impassively.
Yun Piaomiao, who had just recovered from the shock, nodded promptly and replied, “Indeed, you have passed!”
/You’ve got to be kidding. The stone tablet was so bright that it had exploded. If this wasn’t considered passing, then what was considered passing?/
“That won’t do!” Sure enough, Qi Duo caused a fuss as expected. “This stone tablet doesn’t show the level of the five elemental spirits! How can this be considered passing?”
Everyone was exasperated. The stone tablet had already exploded, so what was there to show?
Mo Lian sniggered. “I didn’t say wrong, right? I just knew you would make a fuss!”
“It’s no use even if you make a fuss.” Yun Piaomiao faintly discernibly scoffed. “Starting from today, Director Qi will be relieved from his post!”
