Chapter 228 Arriving at the Divine Capital, Rainbow Light in the Ruins?

Gudu No. 1 Middle School

Area B, Class 1, Grade 3.

Kang Nan walked into the classroom slowly, carrying his schoolbag and wearing a neat school uniform.

"Kangnan?" A classmate seemed surprised. "How strange... I can actually see you in the classroom."

"What a fuss." Conan rolled his eyes.

It has indeed been quite a while since she last came to the classroom and listened to a class attentively.

After all, the knowledge being taught now is just a waste of time for her. It was okay before, because she was still young and it was a waste. But now, after she enters the Ancient Capital University in the future, she will have to work under Yu Cang. If she only has high school knowledge in her head, what if she gets embarrassed?

So, she simply skipped all her classes and went to the library to study.

The teacher couldn't say anything about her behavior, after all, her grades were really good. So she could only ask her to come back every time for the monthly exam, and acquiesced to the rest.

Today, she returned to the classroom, naturally for another purpose.

"Have you heard?" Kang Nan asked casually as he took out a few unfinished books from his schoolbag.

"What?" The classmate was stunned for a moment. "I heard something...did anything big happen recently?"

High schools are not so well-informed, not to mention that the person in front of me is a boarding student who doesn't have a cell phone on weekdays.

"Ah...it's okay." Kang Nan smiled and raised his head, "You may know it later."

"What and what..." The student was confused.

He was about to ask in detail when he suddenly noticed a figure approaching outside the door. He didn't care about it anymore and turned back to his seat.

The head teacher is here... The class leader has a bad temper, and I'm not a genius like Kang Nan, so I can't afford to get into trouble.

Step, step, step

The head teacher walked into the classroom with hurried footsteps, and the classroom, which was originally a little noisy, suddenly became quiet.

The classmate pretended to clean up the desk and took a moment to look up.

Um?

The squad leader's expression...something seems a little off.

She used to be quite serious. Whenever she stood on the podium, her expression would be meticulous and quite oppressive... Today, why was she so excited? She even looked a little red.

What happened?

While he was still wondering, the class leader placed a pile of materials on the podium and spoke:

"Classmates," he glanced around, seeing everyone gradually raise their heads, and then he said, "Do you know what happened this morning?"

Below, everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Only Kang Nan, while looking at the book in his hand, had a smug smile on his face.

Here we come!

Someone talked about his future teacher!

Seeing that everyone was confused, the squad leader nodded with satisfaction.

very good.

It seems that no one has secretly taken the phone.

Then, he coughed lightly and said, "Classmates, your generation is really lucky to be able to experience a new era firsthand."

There was silence in the audience, and everyone was blinking, wondering what was wrong with this leader today.

Only Kang Nan could hardly hold back his smile.

Hurry up and start praising.

She came here today just to hear this!

Thinking of the two papers he saw today, Conan was still feeling surprised.

She only knew that Yu Cang was powerful, but she couldn't explain how powerful he was. She only knew that the Yingcao suit was definitely not all that Yu Cang could do.

Now, she finally understood why Yu Cang was able to obtain the Flame Emperor Medal.

Star level! Synchronicity!

Kang Nan had read them. In her opinion, each of these two papers was qualified for the Flame Emperor Medal. The value of the two papers combined was such that the Flame Emperor Medal would rank among the best even among all the recipients in history!

And judging from the official announcement, this is probably just the tip of the iceberg for Yu Cang. There must be something bigger hidden in the dark!

Humph, it turned out to be the right choice to find Yu Cang to become his disciple in advance!

Otherwise, if you want to see Yu Cang now, it will be difficult.

Conan couldn't help but feel proud of his own wit and foresight.

However, Yu Cang is really amazing... He is not much older than herself, but he has already achieved so many results... Even with her little brain, she has no idea how he did it.

At this rate, Yu Cang should have finished all the college courses by the time he was in high school...but I was still wasting time on these simple courses every day, which is such a sin!

While she was thinking about this, the head teacher continued:

"Classmates, you may not know this, but just now... no, to be exact, a month ago, our Yan Country had a new recipient of the Flame Emperor Medal. His name is Yu Cang. And this morning, the country announced Yu Cang's achievements!"

Wow!

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience immediately became excited. Some of the more slow-witted people blinked their eyes, not knowing what it meant, but some people immediately became excited.

The Flame Emperor Medal! The reward for obtaining this medal... Is the era changing?

"Also," the homeroom teacher said with a mysterious smile, "I just read Yu Cang's paper. It's impressive, but putting aside those advanced parts... there are many things that are suitable for appearing in the exam."

The people in the audience were stunned.

Now, even those slow-witted students know what this means - the college entrance examination questions will be changed!

For a moment, there was a howling of ghosts in the audience, but this emotion did not last long. After all, there was still more than half a year before the college entrance examination, and learning a category of knowledge points in half a year was not a difficult task at all.

They are still curious about what the result is.

"I'll sort out the details and send them to you later." The class leader smiled. "However, there's one thing you need to know—this classmate Yu Cang, who received the Flame Emperor Medal, also graduated from this classroom... Moreover, he's only two years older than you, so he's actually your senior."

ah?

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was completely unable to hold back.

What the hell?

They were just thinking that Yu Cang must be a highly respected academic leader, and many people with delicate minds were still complaining that it was impolite for the teacher to call Yu Cang a classmate.

So... they are actually classmates?

For a moment, incredible emotions filled their hearts, to the point that they even felt unreal.

"Keep going, little ones," the homeroom teacher said with a smile, "Try hard to get into Ancient Capital University. Maybe you'll have the chance to meet this senior."

…

Listening silently to the discussions around him, Kang Nan smiled secretly.

Humph, look at you guys, you still have to guess what the teacher looks like.

You didn’t expect that you are already Yu Cang’s “prospective student”!

As long as I can successfully pass the exam and become the top scorer... hehe.

For a moment, Kang Nan could hardly hold back the smile on his face.

This wave of huge profit!

Kang Nan wanted to directly say that she was Yu Cang's student, but after thinking about it, she controlled her desire.

After all... not yet. And that would seem petty and bring shame to the teacher.

However, she really didn't expect that Yu Cang actually graduated from this classroom...

Conan's eyes fluctuated slightly.

Then I wasted my time here before... Oops! It's even more sinful!

Pursing his lips, Conan focused his attention on the book in front of him.

She originally wanted to leave after listening to her classmates' reactions, but now, she decided to study here today... Fortunately, she brought books from the library.

As a teacher's student, you must never slack off!

Speaking of students…Kannan thought of Gutu.

Gugu, he has been working very hard since he came back from the card-making room that day. He doesn't play with me when he is free, but practices silently by himself and improves his combat skills.

Kang Nan secretly laughed in his heart.

Of course she knew why Gugu worked so hard... The teacher had said that if Gutu wanted to become his disciple, he had to pass the imperial examination and become the top scorer.

She is a liberal arts student and Gutu is a military student, so they don't affect each other.

Humph...coo, come on, otherwise if your grades get bad, she won't help you plead with the teacher.

…

Koto University

Yang Heli came back from his walk, opened his personal terminal and frowned.

"Wow, Xiao Cang finally released a new summoning method?"

A smile appeared on Yang Heli's face.

Not bad, not bad... Ever since seeing the fusion at that defense meeting, everyone who has participated must have been itching to try it.

A new summoning method is right before our eyes, who can remain calm?

Even though he is a retired professor from a combat academy, he has always been paying attention to fusion, looking forward to what changes he can bring to the combat system.

In other words, Ren Zheng's words carry enough weight to be suppressed, otherwise no confidentiality agreement would work. Who can wait for Yu Cang, a primary school student, to slowly perfect it by himself?

Now, this summoning method is finally revealed!

But it's a pity... He originally thought that this fusion summoning should be done by their Ancient Capital University through some research, and then made public after gaining a certain leading position... Now that time is so short, the advantages that Ancient Capital University can gain should not be much.

Thinking of this, Yang Heli shook his head, clicked his tongue, and then clicked on the paper published by Yu Cang.

"Hmm... Star Rank, Synchro Summon... Eh? Changed the name? Why not Fusion anymore... Synchro, does it have any meaning?"

Yang Heli scratched his head.

He felt that the name Fusion was very consistent with the characteristics of this summoning method.

Why change to synchronization...I really don't understand.

Full of doubts, Yang Heli opened Yu Cang's paper, hoping to find the answer in it.

However, the more he looked down, the more Yang Heli frowned.

Hmm... this isn't fusion?

Yang Heli quickly exited the paper and glanced at the author.

It’s Yu Cang, for sure.

Oh...it turns out that Xiao Cang has created a new way of summoning. He said, why change the name if you have nothing to do.

That makes sense... Wait?!

Another new way to summon?

Yang He stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open.

Oh my god, you kid.

Are you here for wholesale?

Yang Heli felt his brain go dizzy and suddenly had the illusion that he was not keeping up with the times.

One person created two summoning methods... Is this a human?

…

Reactions similar to Yang Heli's were happening everywhere in Gudu University.

Those who have not participated in the defense meeting will only feel very excited and proud.

The excitement lies in the fact that I can witness history in my lifetime and personally feel the power of the progress of the times.

And there is another point - the overall ranking of Ancient Capital University in the country is probably in the middle, not very high, but now that it has a synchronization and star level, it is foreseeable that this ranking will definitely rise all the way and approach the Imperial Capital University!

On how important it is to have a hard-working alma mater.

They were just excited. Those who had personally attended the defense meeting didn't know what to say when they saw these two papers.

...Where is the promised fusion?

Their moods can be described as ups and downs.

During the defense meeting, they thought that since they were close to the Fusion Summoning, they would definitely have the upper hand, get the first chance to research and launch it first. However, they didn't make it public without any announcement.

They were about to say "I haven't gotten on the bus yet" in a confused manner.

But it turns out that what was announced was another one?

And it's the same author?

Frog fun, they have been waiting for the integration here for a long time, but you are not doing your job... Well, it can't be considered as not doing your job, their results are still awesome.

I just didn't take them out to play.

These scholars feel very aggrieved.

"Why are you feeling wronged? What's there to feel wronged about?" Zhang Wenxian snorted coldly. "Yu Cang has his own achievements. He can use them however he wants. It has nothing to do with you."

"But, Professor Zhang," someone said, "don't you want to see how this fusion is done?"

"I think so. Just wait." Zhang Wenxian wore reading glasses and stared at the newspaper without looking up. "I think this synchronization is pretty powerful. What's wrong? It's not to your liking?"

"No..." the man sighed.

It's so tiring to chat with this old guy.

At this moment, the terminal in his pocket suddenly vibrated. The man picked it up and looked at it, his expression changed slightly.

It's a text message.

Guan Qingrui invited them to study fusion together! And this has already been approved by Ren Zheng and Yu Cang!

His expression remained unchanged. He glanced at Zhang Wenxian secretly and put away the terminal.

"Old Zhang, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Yeah, see you later."

The man left in a hurry and the room became quiet.

quite a while.

The personal terminal in Zhang Wenxian's pocket suddenly vibrated.

…

Half an hour later.

In front of Guan Qingrui's laboratory.

The man met Zhang Wenxian.

"Hahaha... Professor Zhang, you have been invited too?" The man came forward with a smile without changing his expression.

"Hmph." Zhang Wenxian snorted and walked into the house with a flick of his sleeves.

Not bright, boring.

Only that person was left standing there, looking a little unhappy.

Didn’t I just not tell you... Guan Qingrui didn’t say it could be spread outside, so what’s wrong with being cautious?

This old guy... we've known each other for several years, and he just turned against me like that?

…

Guan Qingrui invited others to study the fusion together, and naturally Yu Cang agreed.

In other words, it was Yu Cang who instructed it.

Synchro and Star Rank are public, no problem. The drawing method of the "Contract Star Rank" soul card is very easy to understand, and unlike "The Otherworld Passage", this card is not dangerous to use. It is impossible for a soul card player to enter the soul card world through the Star Rank and not be able to return.

Therefore, Yu Cang was also relieved.

After it is made public, people will naturally flock to learn and continuously improve the synchronization system. The overall combat effectiveness of the soul card masters of Yan Country and even the world will also be improved in this process.

But fusion cannot do this.

The drawing of the fusion soul card requires the starry sky vision. This thing is still very dangerous and can only be learned within the Jieying campus, so even if Yu Cang wants to make it public on a large scale, he can't do it.

However, the exploration of the integrated system is an almost exhaustive process that requires a large number of manpower, so we can only find people to learn in the ancient capital.

It just so happened that Guan Qingrui and Professor Hu Jingzhi's students were almost on track in mastering the Starry Sky Vision Field and had also summed up some experience, so they could try to let others get in touch with it as well.

He himself boarded a plane directly and took Qi'er, the others and Gu Jieshuang to the capital by plane.

Although the discussion about him outside was getting more and more intense, he had his own things to do and could not take care of them.

The main reason for coming to Shendu is that Jieying's feeding period is about to end. If he doesn't replenish his high-level rhythm in time, this big guy will starve to death.

Now, the first batch of students at the Jieying campus have mastered the ability to enter and exit the Jieying campus independently, so even if Jieying leaves temporarily, there will be no problem.

As for Gu Jieshuang—we agreed that we would go to dangerous places together, so we had to bring her along. We had also informed Grandmaster Yun that this secret realm wasn't as strict as the Tianmen Gate; anyone with permission could enter.

Therefore, after Yu Cang went to the Ice City in the Starry Sky Vision to reinforce the seal, he went directly to... the Divine Capital.

Speaking of which, the ancient capital and the divine capital have certain similarities.

The ancient capital is the place where Emperor Zulong made his fortune and it was also the capital of the Qin Dynasty, while the divine capital... was the capital of Emperor Wu.

After getting off the plane, Gu Jieshuang looked at the city in the distance with twinkling eyes.

God's Capital...

As a mixed-race, Gu Jieshuang has always had a unique feeling towards this dynasty and this myth.

After all, she had worshipped the statue of Emperor Wu since she was a child.

Mixed-bloods have a difficult fate. When she was young, Gu Jieshuang actually felt resentful about why Emperor Wu created these bloodlines and let these ethnic groups that were destined to have a short lifespan bear such a heavy responsibility.

Of course, that was only when she was a child. The older she got, the more she understood everything Emperor Wu did, and the more she identified with her own identity.

But now, this responsibility has been taken over by the country, and the reason for the short life span of mixed-race people has been found. It is probably only a matter of time before it is completely solved, so her heart has already calmed down a lot.

"Let's go." Yu Cang looked at the city outline looming in the distance and clicked his tongue.

I had been planning to come back during the winter break, but because of Jieying's incident, the date was moved forward a bit...and it seems that because of this, I ran into some trouble.

When he was talking to Master Yun yesterday, he heard that there was a small problem with the ruins.

Although the problem was not serious, it was unexpected after all, which added some unknowns to this originally 100% safe exploration journey.

Yu Cang didn't care about this. After all, Jieying's demand for high-level rhythms was a necessity, and these rhythms could only be found in dangerous secret realms... Even if there was a problem with this secret realm in Shendu, it was already considered a safe secret realm.

How can you not take risks when entering a dangerous place?

Secret places like Tianmen are absolutely safe, but the review takes time, after all, you can't go there whenever you want.

So, after saying hello to Ren Zheng, Yu Cang went straight to the capital.

"Hahaha, Mr. Yu." A figure walked towards him. It was Yun Yan.

"Master Yun." Yu Cang smiled, "Why did you come to pick me up in person?"

"I invited you, so I definitely can't neglect you." Yun Yan laughed heartily. "Besides... Young friend Yu Cang stole the spotlight a few days ago. His status is different now. Even if I come to pick you up at the airport in person, I'm still worried that the standard won't be high enough."

"Master Yun, this is meaningless." Yu Cang waved his hand. "By the way, let me introduce you. This is Gu Jieshuang, my...classmate. This is Qi'er, my sister."

"Hello, uncle!" Qi'er said obediently.

"Hello, little Qi'er." Yun Yan smiled gently at Qi'er, then turned around and extended his hand to Gu Jieshuang. "Hello, Jieshuang, I've heard Yu Cang mention you many times."

Gu Jieshuang's face was calm, and his whole body exuded an aura of "keep away from strangers".

She shook hands lightly with Yun Yan: "Hello."

Then she returned to Yu Cang... She was extremely nervous.

Sure enough, facing classmates and facing elders are two completely different levels of difficulty, especially when with Yu Cang!

Yun Yan was a little confused, but he didn't care.

"Let's go, we'll talk on the way."

"good."

…

"In other words..." Yu Cang rubbed his chin, "A month ago, a rainbow light suddenly rose from the interior of Ruins No. 8 and disappeared into the sky... and then the entire ruins underwent some changes, right?"

"Yes." Yun Yan sighed, "I don't know what this means, or what impact it will have on the ruins. To be honest, we've already explored the perimeter of the ruins and are basically certain it's 100% safe, but that's no longer certain... How about we wait a few days, after we've explored the ruins, and then ask you to come over, how about that?"

After all, Yu Cang is the recipient of the Flame Emperor Medal. Now that he has come to their capital, they must ensure his safety.

If anything happened to Yu Cang here, Yun Yan would not be able to bear the responsibility.

Yu Cang rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, and said, "Has this ever happened before?"

"No, this is the first time."

"Have you discovered any danger yet?"

"This..." Yun Yan hesitated for a moment before saying, "There's a student from the Battle Academy at Shendu University. He was inside the ruins when the rainbow light appeared a month ago, but... he hasn't come out yet."

"Oh?" Yu Cang frowned slightly, "Missing?"

"Well... we can confirm that he's still alive, but we haven't found a way to rescue him yet." Yun Yan sighed, "So, let's just forget it. Our Divine Capital still has some ruins and many interesting places. How about I take you to those places?"

"...Take me to Ruins No. 8 first."

Yu Cang just said this.

There was a problem with this relic. Since the card maker of the Divine Capital hadn't solved it for so long, he actually had no confidence.

However… the timing of the problem with Ruins No. 8 was very coincidental.

Yu Cang asked Yun Yan, the time when the rainbow light rose... was exactly the time when Yu Cang first entered the Starry Sky Field of Vision!

In addition, Yun Yan once said that this relic is related to the star realm.

Then he had to suspect that these problems might have been caused by himself... and it seemed that a stranger was also involved.

In that case, he will not avoid the things that he should solve.

Thanks to rose20230730 for the reward!
