163: Chapter 163 Contract Change, Thunder Source Demon Gun

Previously, at Xuanhuang Fortress, Elder Feng Xiang had clearly told him.

The contract the Beiming Sacred Hall was offering him was that of a True Disciple, not an Ordinary Disciple.

"A True Disciple contract? You're being a bit too arrogant, aren't you? You've only made some contributions in the World Martial Arts Competition..."

Zhu Xin said slowly, looking down at Zhou Bai in front of him.

"Allowing a Junior College Student like you to become an Ordinary Disciple is already a stroke of immense luck..."

Hearing Elder Zhu Xin's words, Zhou Bai's brow furrowed slightly.

"Then I can't sign it. We'll talk when Elder Feng Xiang returns!"

Zhou Bai pondered for a moment before speaking slowly.

Although the shares of the spirit crystal veins and resource development rights in the Ancient Mystic Realm had already been allocated, many details still needed to be discussed.

Grandmaster Feng Xiang was currently negotiating with ability users from other countries.

"If you don't sign now, don't even think about becoming a disciple of our Beiming Sacred Hall!"

Zhu Xin continued indifferently.

"I understand. I'll still wait for Elder Feng Xiang to return. If I can't join the Beiming Sacred Hall, then so be it!"

Zhou Bai said nonchalantly.

Although this contract change was unexpected, Zhou Bai would not compromise because of it.

Since it had been agreed to be a True Disciple contract, the sudden change to an Ordinary Disciple was indeed difficult for Zhou Bai to accept.

Moreover, while the Sacred Hall was a top-tier power in Xia Country, Zhou Bai knew that his reliance had never been on any organization.

His system was his greatest source of confidence.

Even if he truly couldn't enter any top-tier power in the end, Zhou Bai wouldn't feel too much disappointment.

Just like with the Top Ten back then; even in a Vocational College, he had reached this point through his own hard work.

"Fine, don't regret it. You've missed the greatest opportunity of your life!"

Seeing Zhou Bai's blunt response, Zhu Xin's expression turned even colder.

Then, without lingering any further, Zhu Xin turned and left.

"Since there's nothing else to do, I'll continue opening my spiritual apertures. No matter the time, one's own strength is what's most important!"

In the room, Zhou Bai took out his qiankun spirit pearl.

Zhou Bai's divine sense delved into it. Inside, the Azure Cloud Thunder Dragon was devouring fierce beast inner elixirs to continuously improve its foundation.

Beside it were large quantities of fierce beast inner elixirs and other resources, as well as many spirit crystals. These past few days, Zhou Bai had taken the Azure Cloud Thunder Dragon to explore many places in the Ancient Mystic Realm, slaughtering a large number of fierce beasts.

Now, inside Zhou Bai's qiankun spirit pearl, there were hundreds of thousands of Fifth-Order Fierce Beast inner cores, and tens of thousands of sixth-tier fierce beast inner cores.

There was no need to even mention the various other resources.

Because of the qiankun spirit pearl, Zhou Bai had moved all sorts of items with spiritual essence from the Ancient Mystic Realm into it.

Now, the small world within the qiankun spirit pearl was filled with dense spiritual essence everywhere.

This spiritual essence seemed to be nourishing the entire small world of the qiankun spirit pearl, making it more vibrant.

Zhou Bai had also found some spirit crystal veins. However, due to limited time, he hadn't excavated the entire veins, only taking a large portion of them.

Zhou Bai estimated that there were at least a hundred million spirit crystals in the veins he had excavated, and that was a conservative estimate.

This was also one of Zhou Bai's sources of confidence. With these resources, even without a top-tier power, he was certain he could improve himself.

Next, Zhou Bai took out two spirit crystals and a bottle of ten thousand year spirit milk.

After drinking the ten thousand year spirit milk, Zhou Bai held a spirit crystal in each hand and circulated the Thunder Spirit Breathing Technique, absorbing the spiritual power within the crystals...

With the intake of the ten thousand year spirit milk and the spirit crystal energy, Zhou Bai's seventh spiritual aperture was slowly being opened.

Time flowed by slowly...

Soon, evening arrived, and Instructor Guan Ping brought the rewards to Zhou Bai.

"Zhou Bai, these are the SS-rank [Thunder Spirit Breathing Technique] and [Thunder Piercing Sky Spear]. Because they are SS-rank secret techniques, they come as individual secret keys and can only be used once!"

Guan Ping handed the secret keys containing the two SS-rank techniques to Zhou Bai and spoke slowly.

"I understand!"

Zhou Bai nodded.

SS-rank secret techniques were strategic resources for Xia Country; their importance went without saying.

"This is the thunder source demon spear you wanted. Be careful, this SS-rank demon spear is very overbearing and possesses extremely strong Thunder Power..."

Next, Guan Ping took out a 2.6-meter long spear from his space ring.

The shaft was straight, and the blade was shaped like a willow leaf, its edge as thin as a cicada's wing, emitting a cold, chilling light.

At the junction of the shaft and the blade, there were mysterious spirit runes. These runes seemed to connect with the laws of heaven and earth, and faint strands of lightning flickered.

The spear was silver-black overall, crafted from Thunder Source Metal. This was a top-tier alloy containing both lightning and mental attributes, and its value was extraordinary.

Looking at the thunder source demon spear in front of him, Zhou Bai felt as if his divine sense was being faintly drawn in, as if it wanted to devour his consciousness.

As Zhou Bai gripped the thunder source demon spear, he felt the Chaos Divine Thunder within his body being drawn to it, causing a slight restlessness.

The thunder source demon spear also flickered with even more intense arcs of electricity, slightly tearing at the surrounding space.

"Crackle!!!!"

Zhou Bai lightly swung the spear, and instantly a flash of lightning flickered, followed by the sound of thunderclaps echoing through the space.

"Not bad, it really is a good spear. It lives up to its status as an SS-rank weapon!"

Feeling the overbearing power contained within the thunder source demon spear, Zhou Bai's face was full of joy.

If he had possessed this thunder source demon spear during the World Martial Arts Competition, even if his talent hadn't evolved, he would have been confident in tearing through everything.

This was the powerful combat strength boost provided by a top-tier weapon.

In particular, this thunder source demon spear was a perfect match for Zhou Bai's attributes. Not only could he receive a boost to his mental power, but he also gained the empowerment of Thunder Power, making its might extraordinary.

"By the way, Student Zhou Bai, your wife has also come looking for you. She is with us in the University Alliance!"

After a moment, Guan Ping seemed to remember something and said to Zhou Bai.

"Shiyu is here? Quickly, take me to her!"

Hearing Guan Ping's words, Zhou Bai's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly spoke to Instructor Guan Ping.

"Alright, Student Zhou Bai, follow me!"

Instructor Guan Ping then led Zhou Bai out of the room.

Outside the room was the main hall of the University Alliance.

"Holy crap, God Bai! It's God Bai! I'm seeing God Bai..."

"God Bai is so badass! He single-handedly crushed the entire US team. You are my god..."

"Keep it up, God Bai! You're the best..."

"God Bai! If heaven hadn't birthed God Bai, the world of Vocational Colleges would be like an eternal night. God Bai is awesome..."

As they passed through the hall, many nearby martial artists and college students saw Zhou Bai passing by and shouted with extreme excitement.
