72 Expulsion from School! (2/2)
”Next, I will need to refine more Dharmic artifacts!”
Among the Dharmic artifacts, the purple flying sword had played a pivotal role. Thinking of that, Wang Baole took a deep breath as he straightened his attire to prepare to meet the dean of the Dharmic Armament faculty.
He wanted to express his appreciation to the dean for bestowing him with the sword!
Inside the dean's residence, Goatee looked at Wang Baole, who had come to pay his respects. He was very emotional, for he had the right to know about what had happened to Wang Baole as the dean of the Dharmic Armament faculty. That was especially so since the matter happened within his own faculty, and it was so atrocious that rage uncontrollably developed within him.
”Baole, you were right in how you handled this matter!
”Some people think that their background allows them to disregard the rules and attempt to challenge the limits of the four major Dao Colleges. Absolutely not!”
”Thank you, Dean. If it wasn't for the flying sword that you kindly bestowed me, I probably… wouldn't have made it back alive,” Wang Baole said as he cupped his fists in respect, immensely touched as he felt Goatee's genuine concern for him. He then retrieved the broken purple sword from his storage bracelet.
Looking at the pieces of the purple sword in Wang Baole's hands, Goatee was full of emotion. He had only previously heard of what happened, but looking at the sword now, he could barely imagine how much Wang Baole struggled to survive in the treacherous situation. He raised his head to look at the specially-recruited student that he had personally chosen with gentle eyes that conveyed a sense of pride.
”Do not worry, I'll make you another one!”
Wang Baole was pleasantly surprised. He thanked the dean immediately and chatted with him before bidding farewell. After he returned to his cave abode, he pondered for a moment before beginning to craft inscriptions on the Spirit Stones.
After that battle, Wang Baole had realized that he lacked protective Dharmic artifacts, and he began to inscribe as he thought, Those Dharmic artifacts that were made previously had coarse craftsmanship, but they were definitely important. This time, not only do I have to make more of them, I need to develop Dharmic artifacts that have protective abilities!
Time flew by. As the semester began and the new students arrived, every faculty in Dao College seemed to be busier than usual. The few times that Wang Baole headed out, he garnered looks of admiration from the new students of the Dharmic Armament faculty.
Wang Baole enjoyed the attention, but he knew that what was more important was to develop more Dharmic artifacts. Therefore, he spent most of his time in the Spirit Cauldron Cave.
Half a month later, the Chancellor sent people to deliver two boxes. In the first box was a mirror that emitted a strong suppressive force. Three Armament Marks were present on the top of the mirror as well. Wang Baole was overwhelmed, looking at it.
That was… a third-grade numinous treasure!
He immediately opened the second box, and a jade pendant with a flood dragon inscribed on it appeared. Similarly, there were three Armament Marks, and the flood dragon appeared life-like. As Wang Baole glanced at it, the flood dragon seemed to come alive, even moving slightly.
This is another third-grade numinous treasure!
Wang Baole took a deep breath. He knew how precious and valuable they were. He did not take them out immediately and instead activated his voice transmission ring to contact the Chancellor.
Soon, the Chancellor's voice emerged from the voice transmission ring.
”I refined the jade pendant myself; it's a gift for you so that you can stay protected!
”As for the mirror, it was sent by the City Lord of Ethereal City. Thorough checks have been made, and there shouldn't be any issue with it. If you don't want it…”'
As Wang Baole listened, his thoughts poured in. He had an inkling that Lin Tianhao's father had reached some kind of agreement with Ethereal Dao College. Thinking of that, he spoke immediately.
”I want it! Why would I not want it?”
Hearing what Wang Baole had to say, the Chancellor laughed approvingly. He had wanted to persuade Wang Baole to accept it, and now, seeing that Wang Baole understood the significance of accepting the gift, he fell silent for a moment before speaking with a low voice.
”Baole, the four major Dao Colleges and seventeen senators are all part of the Federation. Therefore, many issues cannot be truly investigated. Let this matter rest, and I assure you that nothing similar will happen again!”
”Has the expulsion been canceled as well?” Wang Baole asked softly, his gaze turning cold.
”The rules of the Dao College will not change. His membership as a student of the Lower Academy Island will not be restored!” The Chancellor comforted Wang Baole slightly before ending the voice transmission.
Wang Baole sat in the Spirit Cauldron Cave, looking at the two boxes and the voice transmission ring, before narrowing his eyes.
Membership as a student in the Lower Academy Island… That means that enrollment is divided between the Upper and Lower Academies?
