High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 226: Chapter 187: Enter! White Dragon Royal Court

White Dragon University was extremely vast.

The distance from Jiang Ye’s residence to the central ’White Dragon Court’ of the school spanned several dozen miles.

Fortunately, Jiang Ye had now reached the Second Break. After donning the Starry Sky Armor, his speed was nearly supersonic.

It only took a minute.

”Whoosh!” Jiang Ye, like a streak of flowing light, rapidly approached the majestic building shaped like a dragon’s head.

In front of the dragon head building was a white jade plaza, where many people were waiting.

”I’m here.” Jiang Ye slowed down his speed.

Soon, he landed on the white jade plaza.

”Brother Jiang.” A burly young man greeted him.

”Brother Tang.” Jiang Ye walked over.

For the past six days, he had been practicing with Tang Wuji, and the two had become quite familiar with each other.

In a sense.

It was precisely because of Tang Wuji that Jiang Ye was able to progress so quickly.

If it had been someone else, they might not have provided better honing effects.

”Brother Tang.” Jiang Ye curiously asked, ”Are there always so many people here every day?”

He looked around.

The expansive plaza had at least dozens of students waiting.

However, most of them had B Level Profound Bodies, with A Level Profound Bodies being very few.

”Of course not.”

”The White Dragon Court opens once every two months,” Tang Wuji shook his head, ”so there’s always quite a crowd each time.”

”If you obtain the Heavenly Step Inheritance, you have to wait a year before entering again.”

”But most of the people on the plaza are B-level students who haven’t received the Heavenly Step Inheritance yet.” Tang Wuji smiled wryly, ”Including me.”

Jiang Ye, hearing this, curiously asked, ”Have all A-level students received the Heavenly Step Inheritance?”

”Not really.”

Tang Wuji shook his head again, ”A-level students are also divided into three levels: Upper, Middle-Level, and Lower. Most Lower A students find it very difficult to achieve the Heavenly Step Inheritance in their freshman year.”

”The Heavenly Step Inheritance is really hard to obtain.”

”Only those who scored above 1100 in the college entrance exam dare say they’ll get it in one try.” Tang Wuji sighed helplessly.

Even he felt very small in front of such geniuses.

”Over 1100 in the college entrance exam.” Jiang Ye was secretly shocked.

This score was equivalent to reaching the Late Period of Second Break in the college entrance exam.

A true marvel.

”It seems this Heavenly Step Inheritance is even harder to get than I imagined.” Jiang Ye thought to himself.

On the plaza, although A Level Profound Bodies were rare, there were a few.

They were all Lower A Profound Bodies, of course.

”By the way, Brother Tang.”

Jiang Ye asked in confusion, ”According to what you just said, you only have six chances a year to enter the White Dragon Court?”

”That’s right.” Tang Wuji nodded.

Jiang Ye was quite surprised.

At Penglai University, Upper A students have five advancement opportunities per year.

This number was about the same as that of White Dragon University students.

”Penglai University and White Dragon University have a close relationship.” Tang Wuji seemed to know what he was thinking and explained, ”The founders of the two schools were once great friends.”

Jiang Ye was taken aback.

”Great friends?”

”Then why is there such a difference in levels between the two schools?” Jiang Ye asked, puzzled.

”Because the founder of Penglai University sacrificed himself very early on.” Tang Wuji said, ”There was much that he did not have time to pass on.”

”In fact, in the founding period, Penglai University was not much inferior to White Dragon University and was even somewhat stronger.”

”It’s just a pity...” Tang Wuji shook his head, sighing.

”I see.” Jiang Ye nodded.

It was the first time he had heard these secrets.

Suddenly.

”You guys came pretty quickly.” A crisp girl’s voice rang out.

”Shi Ting?” Tang Wuji turned to look.

A refined-looking young girl was walking toward them.

[Constitution: Profound Body (Lower A)]

[Talent: Tao Bone]

”Senior Sister Shi Ting.” Jiang Ye cupped his hands toward her.

If someone is stronger than oneself, one must address them as Senior Brother/Sister.

This was the rule at White Dragon University.

”Hello, Junior Brother Jiang.” Shi Ting smiled slightly at him.

”Senior Sister,” Tang Wuji laughed, ”last time you almost obtained the Heavenly Step Inheritance; it looks like this time is secured.”

”If you don’t get the Heavenly Step Inheritance this time.” Shi Ting smiled faintly, ”Then next term, beating you up will be a sure thing.”

”Junior Brother Jiang.”

”Have you been frustrated these six days, being beaten up by this guy?” Shi Ting looked at Jiang Ye, ”If you get the Heavenly Step Inheritance, I’ll beat him up for you right away.”

”Uhh...”

Jiang Ye shook his head, smiling, ”Thank you, Senior Sister, for your kindness, but Senior Brother Tang helped me improve my strength, I don’t hold a grudge against him.”

”However, I will do my best to acquire the Heavenly Step Inheritance.” Jiang Ye said firmly.

”Alright, for your sake.”

Shi Ting laughed softly, ”When the time comes, I’ll be gentle when I beat him up.”

Jiang Ye laughed in surprise and quickly said no more.

He could tell that Senior Sister Shi Ting just wanted to beat up Tang Wuji and was only using him as an excuse.

”Senior Sister, is it really necessary?”

”I just accidentally walked into the women’s restroom last time,” Tang Wuji said helplessly, ”I really didn’t see anything...”

His words abruptly stopped midway.

Because a dangerous aura had already encompassed him, seemingly ready to explode at any moment.

Just then.

”Rumble~” A deep and distant rumbling sound emanated from the dragon head building in front, like the roar of an ancient beast, causing the entire plaza to tremble.

The next moment.

A blinding beam of light shot out from the dragon’s mouth, piercing the sky.

”Buzz!” The light radiated, and a vast energy wave spread rapidly around the dragon head, engulfing the entire area like an ocean.

On the plaza, everyone was pressed down.

Even Shi Ting, who was about to erupt, quickly retracted her aura, looking ahead with reverence.

”The White Dragon Court has opened.” Jiang Ye was also intently watching the front.

...

”Rumble!”

The sky vibrated as the beam tore through the heavens, and an enormous ’Light Gate’ appeared.

The Light Gate stood a hundred meters tall, exuding vast energy fluctuations.

Through the Light Gate, a mysterious and grand royal court could be faintly seen.

After a moment.

The plaza regained its calm, but the massive Light Gate remained suspended in the sky.

”The White Dragon Court.”

”This time, I must obtain the Heavenly Step Inheritance.”

”Heavenly Step Inheritance? No, I want to achieve the Middle-Level Heavenly Step Inheritance!” White Dragon University students, each with determined eyes.

The next moment.

”Whoosh!” ”Whoosh!” ”Whoosh!”

Figures shot up one after another, flying toward the Light Gate in the sky.

This side.

”Brother Jiang.” Tang Wuji looked at Jiang Ye, anxiously saying, ”Make sure you don’t get the Heavenly Step Inheritance, or else Shi Ting will break me to pieces.”

”...” Jiang Ye was speechless.

”Haha.”

”I’m kidding.” Tang Wuji laughed, ”Still, I wish you success in obtaining the Heavenly Step. Good luck.”

”Good luck to you too, Senior Brother Tang.” Jiang Ye nodded.

He said no more, his figure transforming into a streak of flowing light, flying toward the Light Gate.

At the spot.

”Senior Sister,” Tang Wuji looked toward Shi Ting not far away, curious, ”Do you really think Junior Brother Jiang can obtain the Heavenly Step?”

”Whether or not he gets the Heavenly Step.”

”Next term, I’m going to beat you up.” Shi Ting said calmly.

”...” Tang Wuji said no more and flew toward the Light Gate.

Shi Ting let out a light hum, leaped up, and followed closely.

”Junior Brother Jiang, the Heavenly Step Inheritance?” Shi Ting looked at the figure at the front, her eyes showing a hint of curiosity.

No student from Penglai University had ever obtained the Heavenly Step Inheritance.

But Jiang Ye? She felt his progress over the six days was extraordinarily fast.

So fast that even she found it a bit odd.

Because such a rate of progress clearly belonged to the realm of geniuses with Tao Bone talent!

”Though it seems unlikely.”

”Perhaps this Junior Brother can indeed obtain a Lower-Level Heavenly Step Inheritance.” Shi Ting thought to herself.

”Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The three of them entered the Light Gate one after another.
