904: The Dean's Secret, Get the Wool from the Temple

Inside the Classroom.

Du Xingchen withdrew his gaze from the departing Old Dean and turned to look at Moyun.

So, the reason he spoke up earlier to smooth things over was because he noticed the Old Dean and others approaching.

This was a way to make a good impression in front of the elders.

It's just that Moyun himself didn't realize he had been deceived by the Old Dean!

...

Dean's Office.

Standing in front of the Old Man was the Middle-aged Man with the shoulder-length green hair.

"Dean, there is clearly no huan ling grass in the Outer Domain. Isn't it a bit wrong for us to deceive those Children like this?" The standing green-haired Middle-aged Man pondered before voicing his concerns.

"There is no huan ling grass in the Outer Domain, so tell me, where is there?" The Old Dean picked up a book from his desk, the shadow behind him enveloping the Old Man, separating the shadows, as if stripping away the amiable and adding a touch of realistic reality.

"According to Moyun's description of the huan ling grass's habits, the huan ling grass might be in the major swamps of this World. As for the specific location, it's impossible to know."

"That's right, you also said it's impossible to know the specific location of the huan ling grass." The Old Dean smiled and spread his hands with an unclear meaning: "Since that's the case, wouldn't it be a waste of time for us to let the Children search for huan ling grass in those swamps?"

"Even if they really found that thing, and it really woke up Ning Bing, what would be the point?"

"A Soul Card Master who has lost their Soul Card, in this team on which we place high hopes, will only be a burden. Are we supposed to let this burdensome woman participate in the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination with the others? Dragging down the entire team?"

"Looking at it this way, whether Ning Bing wakes up or not doesn't make much of a difference."

"It's better to use this last month to let the remaining Children undergo intense pressure training in the Outer Domain to make the final preparations for the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination!"

"And as for us, we just need to spend some effort on selecting a substitute Student to replace Ning Bing."

"As for Ning Bing, it is indeed a pity, but she completed a ten-thousand-year Soul Card for Moyun, helping our School create a super Genius. Her contribution is indeed great."

"But that's just how things are."

The Old Man stated his viewpoint.

The green-haired Middle-aged Man fell silent.

After a long time, he finally voiced his concerns again: "But the Outer Domain is so dangerous. Guiding them there, could we be overdoing it? Many proud Children of Heaven have been buried in that place!"

"Of course I know, but there's nothing we can do, we have no choice." The Old Dean said calmly: "You haven't seen how monstrous the seed players participating in this year's Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination are."

"If I don't increase the intensity for the Children, it will be impossible to get a good ranking in the end."

"In that case, our School will have to completely close down."

"And I will completely lose the opportunity to glimpse that World." The Old Man murmured to himself, then slowly spread his palm.

On his withered palm.

A clear water droplet pattern was radiating a faint golden light!

If Du Xingchen saw it...

Of course, even if Du Xingchen didn't see it, he understood.

The Dean of their School was currently receiving a Divine Inheritance from a God named the Rain God!

There are countless Gods in Heaven, but they are as distant as the stars.

However, the Divine Inheritance they bestow upon the mortal World at people's feet are not many.

Ninety-nine percent of them are concentrated on their descendants and Bloodline inheritors.

And the inheritances scattered throughout the World that do not require blood relation to activate are very few.

Only extremely lucky people have the opportunity to obtain them.

The Old Dean was one of those few lucky people!

The Rain God Inheritance was a Divine Inheritance he unexpectedly obtained during a heavy rain when he was 9 years old.

The inheritance has a total of five stages.

It is said that upon completing all stages, one can accept the inheritance, surpass the Supreme, and reach the Divine Position!

Now, Dean Eboer, who is nearly ninety years old, is in the third stage.

Personally cultivate a group of Students to become famous in the entire Martial Soul World during the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination!

This is the content of his third stage Divine Position Inheritance assessment.

It's no wonder he is so realistic and treats people like Wen Xiu Cheng as tools.

It's simply because the allure of the God's inheritance is simply irresistible!

To gather these people to his School, he secretly put in countless efforts.

Now that he finally sees a glimmer of opportunity, of course he has to grasp it tightly!

...

Due to the arrival of the Dean, Wen Xiu Cheng's attention was also drawn to the Outer Domain map presented by the Dean in his hand.

He began to examine the map with the surrounding team members.

As for Du Xingchen, he was temporarily ignored.

Du Xingchen was happy to be left alone.

He continued to wander around the School.

During this time, he glanced at Ning Bing, who was unconscious in the School's infirmary.

As expected, Ning Bing would not be able to wake up until everyone obtained the huan ling grass.

According to the setting of this woman in the original text, the importance of the Soul Card on her body far exceeded that of ordinary people!

In the original work, although the protagonist suffered considerable trauma after offering his Soul Card, he at least didn't immediately fall into a coma.

From this, it can be seen that Ning Bing suffered more severe trauma after losing her Soul Card.

Perhaps many subsequent plotlines related to Ning Bing will also undergo changes.

As for going to the Outer Domain.

This was originally a training arranged by the Old Dean for everyone, it was the main storyline.

It's just that this time, the excuse for the main storyline proceeding was changed to helping Ning Bing find the huan ling grass.

But in the barren land of the Outer Domain, where not even a blade of grass grows, there is no huan ling grass. What there are are bloodthirsty Strange Beast, criminals avoiding national pursuit, fugitives who have made enemies with various forces, and Demon Hall followers who have been fighting with the Divine Hall for a thousand years!

Indeed, it's time to prepare.

Du Xingchen thought to himself.

In the original work, although the protagonist team did not lose any members during this trip, they were still in a sorry state.

As for Giant Rhino, this seemingly secure protector.

Once in the Outer Domain, it was inevitable that there would be occasional lapses.

Ultimately, they still had to rely on themselves.

The Students in the School have their own separate wooden houses to live in.

Du Xingchen came to his room.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately took out the golden token from his body.

This was the Divine Hall token given to him by Mu Qianjun.

He could contact him through the token.

After taking out the token, Du Xingchen did not hesitate and directly conveyed the news that they were going to the Outer Domain.

After waiting for a while.

A brief voice came from the token: "Understood. If there are any subsequent developments, continue to report."

After Mu Qianjun's voice fell, the golden token returned to silence.

However, Du Xingchen did not end the communication there.

"Senior, you should also know the dangers of the Outer Domain. If I encounter danger with my current strength, I'm afraid the outcome will be grim."

"So, Senior, shouldn't you provide me with some life-saving items? Such as healing elixirs, card equipment, and so on."

After conveying these messages to the token, Du Xingchen waited patiently for a while.

The other side seemed to have fallen silent.

After a while, Mu Qianjun finally spoke: "Tonight at eight o'clock, go to the Divine Hall branch in Shield City. Some good things will be prepared for you."
