High-Level represents the ultimate power that an ordinary warrior can achieve. Upon reaching High-Level, one undergoes a transformation, extending their lifespan to five hundred years, gaining the ability to fly and perform incredible feats, such as moving mountains and calming lakes with ease. Additionally, they develop a divine sense, allowing them to kill with just a glance.
Indeed, High-Level Giant is the pinnacle of combat strength recognized by all nations, and the most crucial factor in assessing a country's power is determined by the number of High-Level Giants it possesses.
Standing in the void ahead are two individuals who are unmistakably High-Level Giants. Both appear as elderly men in their eighties; despite their white hair and beards, their skin is smooth and rosy like that of a baby, showing no signs of wrinkles. One has a prominent nose and green eyes, while the other has thick eyelids and full lips.
Surrounding them is a powerful aura, an energy field characteristic of Quasi-Advanced warriors. In these two, this energy field is even more refined and robust, subtly forming a tangible light shield that flickers with brilliance.
These are genuine High-Level Giants, not mere Intermediate level mages. They truly float in the air without relying on magic.
Having just completed a teleportation and stepping into the territory of Dysia Kingdom, encountering two High-Level Giants at once is remarkable. They are on par with Lange, the only High-Level Giant from Crook Duchy, who serves as a guardian deity for the nation. Although the three may not be on the same level of strength, they all share the fact of being High-Level.
"Is this the foundation of The Ten Kingdoms? In Crook Duchy, a High-Level Giant can be regarded as a Guardian Martial Saint, yet here two appear so casually. How many strong warriors exist in Dysia Kingdom? How many terrifying old monsters are hidden within Holy Light Academy?"
Feeling immense pressure, Step instinctively clenched his fists. At that moment, Sean Sterling's clear voice rang out as he stepped forward to greet the two elders floating in front of him.
"Silver Xuan Student Sean pays respects to the two elders of Honor Hall."
"I have heard about your recent breakthrough, Sean Sterling. Well done," said the elder with thick eyelids and full lips, smiling. His already narrow eyes squinted further into slits. "Upon returning to the academy, I will apply for you to be promoted to a Silver Sky student and included in the Gold Star Candidate Sequence."
"Thank you, Elder." Sean Sterling remained composed, unruffled by praise or criticism, and bowed again.
"However," the elder suddenly shifted his tone, his gaze sweeping over to Beck behind Sean Sterling. His expression turned serious as he looked back at Sean Sterling and said, "Your actions outside have been somewhat reckless. While achievements are achievements and mistakes are mistakes, you will need to pay a visit to the Law Enforcement Hall."
Sean Sterling frowned slightly and glanced at Beck, who was smirking coldly at him. He narrowed his eyes and silently nodded.
Step observed everything closely, especially noting Beck's detestable smirk. Anger flared within him as he stepped forward to speak.
"Don't make trouble for me."
As Step moved forward, Sean Sterling's voice echoed in his mind; he had anticipated Step's reaction.
"Senior," Step gritted his teeth but eventually fell silent and stepped back.
Strength is what grants one the right to speak. In that moment, Step's previous sense of self-satisfaction from smoothly ascending to greatness in Crook Duchy dissipated like smoke. In its place was an even stronger fighting spirit—a fierce desire for explosive growth hidden beneath his restraint.
"Now that everyone has arrived, let's set off. Many students from other countries have also returned. This time, a remarkable talent has emerged from the Waldoran Kingdom, only twenty-one years old and already at Intermediate Level 4. Such potential has even caught the attention of the Deputy Director. Perhaps soon, our Holy Light Academy will gain another Star Student."
The crowd had mixed feelings as thirteen flying beasts followed two High-Level elders diving downwards. Suddenly, the elder with a high nose and green eyes spoke, his words resonating with everyone and ringing alarm bells for the nine students, causing some previously self-satisfied fellows to gradually temper their arrogance.
Noticing the sudden silence in the atmosphere, the elder with the high nose and green eyes smirked slightly.
This was precisely the result he wanted. If he didn't challenge these young talents who came from local backgrounds, they might truly think too highly of themselves, believing that entering the Holy Light Academy made them exceptional. If that were the case, wouldn't it make Holy Light Academy seem rather low-tier?
"Twenty-one years old and at Intermediate Level 4?" Bu Mei frowned slightly, pondering for a moment before breaking into a smile. Before merging with Crimson Lotus Incarnation, he might have felt pressure from such a talent, but now, "With the daily energy replenishment from Honglian and my daily training with Azure Jade, within two months I will be able to open all fifty Acupoints in my body. Even if my actual combat power hasn't broken through yet, it can rival that of an Intermediate Level 4 expert."
While he was deep in thought, Bu noticed someone was watching him. Turning his head, he found that it was the indifferent Silver-Haired Youth Arno.
Realizing that he had been detected so quickly made Arno's heart tighten. He glanced at Bu and nodded slightly before nonchalantly averting his gaze.
"Ah, observing my reaction and trying to gauge my strength?" Bu Shuang squinted his eyes and chuckled softly.
"Below us is the capital of Dysia Kingdom. The Holy Light Academy is located in the southern area of the capital, facing off against the northern palace from afar."
Since the two elders appeared, Elena, who had remained silent until now, suddenly spoke up with a gentle smile as she pointed downwards to introduce.
"The Southern Holy Light and Northern Palace," Bu leaned forward to look down through the thin clouds and faintly saw a large area shimmering like a glass mirror. Beneath that barrier lay a massive city resembling a dragon coiled around a tiger.
The city was so vast that it seemed endless to the eye. Houses were scattered like stars, grand buildings densely packed together, and roads intertwined like veins in a Human Body.
This great city resembled an ancient giant in slumber; its wide streets looked striking even from this height. Bu estimated that even the narrowest street could accommodate several horse-drawn carriages side by side.
"This city is enormous! Just the area of this capital is comparable to the combined size of Crook Duchy and Twelve Great Cities. With such a strong nation producing outstanding individuals, there must be countless powerful beings here."
As he faced the wind blowing through the air, Bu Shuang's gaze sharpened and his heart trembled. At this moment, his shock seemed to have unknowingly spread to everyone else. Anyone seeing this magnificent city resembling a divine palace for the first time could not remain calm; filled with awe, they felt their own insignificance.
"Our Holy Light Academy has nearly thirty thousand students with countless outstanding talents. Besides ten High-Level Star Students, there are eight hundred Silver Star Students, two thousand Copper Star Cadets, five thousand Iron Star Cadets, and twenty thousand Outer Gate Students. The academy is divided into Four Halls, Three Pavilions, Two Gates, and One Palace.
The Four Halls are Primordial Hall, Black Death Hall, Galan Hall, and Greed Wolf Hall; the Three Pavilions are Honor Hall, Law Enforcement Hall, and Judgment Hall.
The Two Gates refer to the distinction between Inner Gate and Outer Gate. You nine were selected through the Qualification Challenge as Exquisite talents and can be directly enrolled as Inner Gate Disciples with status equivalent to that of royal princes." Taking advantage of their descent towards the city below, the Narrow-Eyed Thick-Lipped Elder cheerfully explained the power structure within Holy Light Academy to Bu and others.
“Four Halls, Three Pavilions, Two Gates, One Palace?” Bu Qing murmured thoughtfully.
“Elder, what does the last palace refer to?” Perhaps intrigued by the words of the Narrow-Eyed Thick-Lipped Elder, most people snapped back from the shock of the majestic imperial capital below. Claire was the first to speak up, her face filled with excited curiosity.
The Narrow-Eyed Thick-Lipped Elder smiled and slowly pointed to a certain area below, saying, “That is the palace, the Holy Palace of the Holy Light Academy.
It is called a palace not only to highlight the unique sacred status of the Holy Palace within the academy but also because many supreme elders of our Holy Light Academy, who have reached extraordinary realms, reside there year-round. Furthermore, if any student is chosen as a Child of Light, they are also qualified to move into the Holy Palace and inherit the supreme creations accumulated over millennia by our Holy Light Academy.”
“The highest and most revered Child of Light among the students?”
Bu Mei raised an eyebrow and followed the direction pointed out by the Narrow-Eyed Thick-Lipped Elder. As they gradually approached the ground, some buildings within the vast imperial capital became clearer. In the direction indicated by him, there was a large area occupied by magnificent structures stacked like a thousand-layer cake. At the top of this complex, clouds resembling mist enveloped it, faintly revealing a solemn and sacred palace.
“Is this the Holy Palace?” Bu Shuang's gaze sharpened. Just as she tried to look more closely, she found that no matter how she viewed it, there always seemed to be a veil of white gauze obscuring her vision, like a half-moon shrouded in clouds and mist, making it impossible to see clearly.
“After landing at the South Gate, you will lead your students to handle related matters. Once finished, proceed to the Honor Hall to record your achievements and receive Honor Points.”
As the strong winds weakened, everyone was soon about to land on the ground. The Elder with High Nose and Green Eyes snorted coldly, glanced at everyone, then turned with the Narrow-Eyed Thick-Lipped Elder. Like two great birds, they soared away with increased speed towards the direction of the Holy Light Academy. The radiant transparent barrier surrounding the city seemed completely defenseless against them, as if it were a water curtain that rippled violently before finally returning to calm.
