186 Heated Burs (1/2)

The unique mystic technique would cause the item to disappear once used. Based on Ethereal Dao College's tradition, unless someone had contributed a significant deed, it was extremely challenging to possess it, since only close to a hundred of them had been obtained over the years.

Even if the contributions that Wang Baole had made previously in the Spirit Breath Village were taken into account, to be granted the heritage of the unique mystic technique was still a stretch. If Wang Baole chose to give it all to the Dao College, it would still be possible for it to happen, but if not, he shouldn't even think about it.

Zhou Penghai and Sun Fang were somewhat confused. They didn't know much about the mystic technique, but Chen Yutong had heard something about it previously. His eyes were wide open as he looked at Wang Baole while holding his breath. He was extremely envious and shocked.

Even Wang Baole was slightly dumbfounded. He didn't understand how valuable the mystic technique really was, but had managed to obtain an indication of its value from the changes in others' facial expressions. Still shocked and bewildered, Chen Yutong's Master took a deep breath and ordered Wang Baole immediately.

”Baole, thank the Deputy Sect Lord now!”

Having heard the elder's words, Wang Baole didn't hesitate. His heart raced as he immediately stepped forward and bowed.

”Thank you, Deputy Sect Lord!”

The red-robed middle-aged man smiled and chatted with Wang Baole and company before leaving. When he left, the Pavilion Head of the Dharmic Armament Pavilion Head stepped forward and praised them as well. However, his tone was more formal and less amiable than that of the Deputy Sect Lord.

However, something rare happened at that time as the Dharmic Armament Pavilion also rewarded Wang Baole in the form of a cruiser. It was silver in color, making it look like a water droplet. The moment it was revealed, it immediately caught Wang Baole's eyes, such that he was instantly attracted to it the moment he saw it.

It seemed like the silver-colored droplet-like cruiser was more advanced than that of Chen Yutong's, and of better quality. It was also extremely cool, making Chen Yutong feel envious upon seeing it as he laughed bitterly. He knew that the Dharmic Armament Pavilion had spent a lot on it.

”Junior Brother Baole, this cruiser can be considered one that is specially granted to someone of the rank of a Deputy Pavilion Head. The cost of any one of these would allow one to purchase an apartment in Ethereal City's most luxurious district.”

After realizing the price of the cruiser, Wang Baole was extremely excited, and he immediately conveyed his gratitude. When the Dharmic Armament Pavilion Head and company had left, Chen Yutong's Master, who stayed behind, gave Wang Baole an overview of what exactly the mystic technique was!

As he listened to the elder's words, Wang Baole's eyes widened with shock. He felt that everything had happened too suddenly. He immediately realized how valuable the mystic technique was after hearing about it. It was difficult to estimate the worth of everything, even if he were to disregard the value of the cruiser.

The mystic technique that is recorded on a piece of fragment can only be inherited once. Once inherited, it will turn into dust… Wang Baole was agitated with excitement. Even after he returned to his cave abode in the Dharmic Armament Pavilion, his emotions and thoughts hadn't normalized.

According to principles, I shouldn't be rewarded so generously… Very quickly, Wang Baole realized that something was amiss. In his bewilderment and constant thought about the issue, he noticed that in the days that followed, there was an unprecedented widespread announcement of their encounters in the stronghold on the Upper Academy Island.

Even the rewards that were given formed part of the announcement. That immediately attracted heated debate on the entire Upper Academy Island, and even Liu Daobin sent him a voice transmission. Wang Baole instantly came to know that the entire incident was being announced, even on the Lower Academy Island.

Is this to set an example? Wang Baole had some guesses, which made him more excited. He felt that the Dao College had a good eye for talent. He sat, munching on his snacks while browsing the Spirit Intranet to take a look at the discussions.

Ethereal Dao College announced all the contributions that Wang Baole and company had made in the stronghold. They made all of them heroes, and Wang Baole was made the center of attention. As a result, Wang Baole's name became the focal point of everyone's discussion on the Upper Academy Island again after the announcement was made.

As commotion spread throughout the entire Dao College, Wang Baole also tried out the droplet cruiser. Its speed was extremely fast, surpassing that of Chen Yutong's cruiser, and it was equipped with a level of combat power that wasn't to be belittled. As Wang Baole was filled with pleasant surprise, he grew even more excited in anticipation of the mystic technique that would be even better than the cruiser.

That anticipation didn't last long, as several days later, Wang Baole received the mystic technique reward from the Deputy Sect Lord!

It was a crimson red fragment the size of a fingernail, kept in an elegant box made of jade. By examining the box, Wang Baole deduced that it was probably made of Rainbow Spirit Stones in its interior, and covered with jade on the exterior. The mere realization that he had never seen anything like that before made Wang Baole shocked.
