"Director, you're awake."
Seeing that Chen Hao had woken up, Li Bai's worried face broke into a bright smile for the first time since Chen Hao had fallen asleep.
"How long have I been asleep?" Chen Hao nodded and asked Li Bai.”
"It's almost twelve hours."
Li Bai replied.
Chen Hao fell silent.
Seven hours, fourteen hours. Ah Qing should have returned to the dragon clan by now, right?
Would he have the chance to see her again in the future?
Unknowingly, Chen Hao's entire person had undergone an earth-shattering change.
Something called the heart of the strong quietly began to take root in the depths of his heart.
It was a thirst for power!
If he had the power to protect everything he wanted to protect, would he still be able to watch helplessly as Ah Qing was taken away?
No! Definitely not!
"System, what can I do to become stronger?”
Chen Hao asked the System in his heart.
Ding!" The host's academy level has been detected to be at level one. If the host wants to increase his own strength, he can activate the function of the store after the academy level has reached level two. He can buy battle energy cultivation techniques, magic scrolls, bloodline constitutions, legendary divine artifacts, beast pets, mounts, and so on that can increase his own strength in the store.”
The familiar system notification sounded in Chen Hao's mind again.
After hearing the system's answer, Chen Hao's body trembled slightly because he was too excited!
So there really was a chance for him to become stronger…
……
Chen Hao logged out of the system and felt that he was filled with fighting spirit!
The scariest thing about humans was that they had no hope!
And now, Chen Hao saw hope!
As long as he worked hard to upgrade the academy to level two, he would be able to obtain the opportunity to become stronger!
In an instant, Chen Hao's complexion became much rosier.
This obvious change made Li Bai rub his eyes. He didn't know if it was an illusion or something else, but he felt that Chen Hao seemed to have changed in a short moment. He no longer had the rogue look of a fool who was waiting for death. Although he still looked weak, he was very strong inside.
Even the look in his eyes had changed. He was no longer as weak as before.
Something called fighting spirit was burning fiercely!
……
"System, do I have to be a Level 2 Academy to activate the function of the store?”
Chen Hao asked again, hoping to get lucky.
"Ding, yes, only level 2 academies can start the project. Detected that the host's academy level is level 1. To upgrade the academy level to level 2, 10,000 academy reputation points and 100,000 gold coins are required.”
"10,000 reputation points, 100,000 gold coins!”
Chen Hao muttered in his heart and fell into deep thought.
At this moment, he really wanted to increase his strength.
Only by being strong enough could one protect everything that one wanted to protect.
As for gold coins, Chen Hao had a piece of Heavenly Lake Jade that Ryan had used to pay for his school fees as collateral. It should be able to sell for quite a lot of gold coins.
As for reputation points, there was not a single one.
Chen Hao sighed and looked at the Reputation Points and gold coins displayed on the system.
The next moment, Chen Hao's eyes widened!
Because it showed-
[School Reputation Value: 4200, Gold Coins: 0
Chen Hao couldn't understand!
Why was there an extra 4,000 Reputation Points?
A few days ago, when Chen Hao looked at it, his Reputation Value with the academy was still 0!
What was going on?
…………
Let's go back to 24 hours ago…
…………
Saint Laurent Empire.
Heavenly Trial Tower!
The Supreme Tower of Trials was located in the center of the Saint Laurent Empire. It was built 1,400 years ago by the current Emperor Osgoo, who spent a hundred years to build it. It was a towering tower that reached into the clouds. It had a total of nine floors and looked extremely majestic.
There were countless people around the Tower of Trials. These people came from all over the continent. Some were native citizens of the Saint Laurent Empire, while others were tourists from the surrounding small countries who admired the Tower of Trials.
There were even some who wanted to challenge the Heavenly Trial Tower personally and leave their names on the top of the Heavenly Stele for others to look up to!
In front of the Tower of Trials, a stone tablet that was hundreds of meters tall was erected. On the stone tablet, there were many names carved. The names in front of these names were the names of the forces that the names belonged to. However, these names were divided into three levels. The higher the level, the fewer the names. However, these few names were the most eye-catching.
This stele was the Heaven Ascension Stele. In the past, as long as a genius could enter the sixth level of the Heaven Ascension Tower, they would leave their names on the Heaven Ascension Stele. Of course, the names of the geniuses who entered the sixth level were already ranked at the bottom of the Heaven Ascension Stele. In the middle were the names of the geniuses who entered the seventh level. As for the higher-ups, they were the few peerless geniuses who entered the eighth level of the Heaven Ascension Tower!
These people were the targets of the various human royal families and academies!
And at the highest level of the Heaven Ascension Stele, at the most dazzling position, there was only one name---
Ask the Heavens Academy, Azure Wood.
This was the only human prodigy who had successfully entered the ninth level of the Heaven Ascension Tower since the establishment of the Heaven Ascension Tower 1,400 years ago!
A hundred years ago, the strongest prodigy of mankind, Cang Mu, had stepped into the ninth level of the Heaven Ascension Trial Pagoda and left his name at the top of the Heaven Ascension Monument, becoming the most legendary figure of that era!
Now that a hundred years had passed, Cang Mu had indeed lived up to everyone's expectations. He suppressed an era and stepped into the saint-tier, guarding the human race. He had become a sword saint that intimidated all the races on the continent!
Because of this, the Supreme Tower of Trials was even more sacred!
Every year, it still attracted countless human prodigies to challenge the tower!
It was precisely because of this that the human race had been able to produce geniuses in the past 100 years, competing for beauty and endless life!
