The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 219 - 139: The 2nd Rank, Ascending Rainbow Light!_1

"Bang!"

Ye Hanjun rushed into an intermediate training hall.

Perhaps because the people of the North Campus were all participating in such a grand event as the Freshman Contest, the normally bustling training hall was quite deserted.

Ye Hanjun swept up to the second floor with the speed of lightning, picked a room at random, and used his Personal Badge to open it.

——He could hardly hold back anymore!

The battle performance of Li Jingming and Wang Xinfei had long filled the Experience Points of the ’Instructor’.

Defeating Renwo Kuang and accepting a Direct Disciple under the attention of all, the academy also recognized that he was not an assistant and became a real Mentor from this point on.

All of these could gain a huge amount of Experience Points.

Because the influx was so huge, Ye Hanjun really couldn’t bear it anymore. If he didn’t leave the arena quickly, he would inevitably break through under the scrutiny of the crowd.

"Rumble....."

The large doors closed quickly.

Ye Hanjun, with his whole body flushing red, couldn’t bear it any longer, gradually relaxed his nerves, and let out a long breath.

As this breath exhaled, his eardrums vibrated, and a palpitation that could not be described in words naturally erupted from the depths of the Sea of Souls.

Ye Hanjun raised his head and saw the starry sky again.

Among the twinkling stars, a large grey sun broke up the earth, like a divine sword piercing the sky.

The dazzling sea of stars was thus split apart, and eerie grey light diffused out.

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

It was the sound of heartbeat, getting faster and faster, more and more urgent.

In the process of accelerated blood flow, streaks of hot air emanated from the top of Ye Hanjun’s head.

His clothes were soaked in an instant, and when some impurities were excreted from the depths of his flesh, his skin became sticky; he really wanted to jump into a water tank and wash from head to toe.

"Boom!"

The grey sun finally hung overhead, and its tangled grey light, like erupting flames, was neither hot nor cold; it only reflected loneliness and antiquity.

It was high above, as if sitting on a cloud.

An ancient stone gate that seemed to devour the heavens and the earth appeared inside the grey sun, right in the middle.

In an instant, Ye Hanjun’s thoughts almost stopped.

In a trance, he seemed to see that around the outer ring of the grey sun, the three grey waning moons that were originally rotating had suddenly increased by two.

Two extremely thick grey light columns shot out from those two new waning moons.

Ye Hanjun, as if driven by a ghost, stretched out his right hand, and two grey light balls instantly appeared in his palm.

"As expected, after the promotion, I can still recruit disciples..."

Ye Hanjun lowered his head to see the two light balls gradually shrink and their glow fading.

What finally fell into his palm were two keys of the Grey Moon of the same size and shape as the previous three.

"Phew—"

The flushed skin returned to normal, the starry sky overhead, the grey sun, the stone gate... gradually disappeared from sight.

Ye Hanjun was fully awake, and immediately perceived the changes in his body.

Clearly, even though an ’Instructor’ is not a combat-type position, the elevation in rank can also slightly enhance physical qualities.

In other respects, Ye Hanjun did not receive any new information on inheritance.

However, he could feel that all aspects of his abilities were normally enhanced and there weren’t any peculiar changes, except for the two new keys of Grey Moon, which were slightly invigorating.

—Renwo Kuang will not only be a Direct Disciple but also the fourth disciple!

Before the promotion, Ye Hanjun was somewhat worried.

The major changes in positions occur primarily at the transition stage.

The promotion from the 1st rank to the 2nd rank and the 2nd rank to the 3rd rank is, in principle, just the enhancement of existing abilities.

Being able to get two more keys of Grey Moon now is a very exciting gift.

This means that during Ye Hanjun’s process of breaking through the 3rd rank, he can have five "super accelerators" equipped at the same time; the speed of harvesting Experience Points will surely remain at peak level.

"Yiye~~~"

GuaGua popped its head out from under the bottle cap, sneakily observing.

Ye Hanjun patted its head and, with a backward gesture, lit the Contract Imprints and quickly summoned Huazhu.

"Master."

Huazhu bowed respectfully, as calm and graceful as ever.

Ye Hanjun’s pitch-black pupils met her golden snake’s eyes, and he nodded gently, saying:

"I’ve been promoted. No need to suppress yourself anymore, break through."

"Yes, Master."

Huazhu nodded and closed her eyes.

Suddenly, faint sounds of eggshell cracking could be heard.

Right above the head of the Sandstorm Witch, a beam of colorful rainbow light appeared out of thin air.

It beamed down vertically, like a guiding light, and thus rainbow ribbons, which could only be seen in a dream world, draped over the witch’s shoulders, making her look even more like a fairy.

"Whoosh~~~"

The rainbow light enveloped; the water surface rippled.

The silhouette of Huazhu became more and more hazy, and a new life force gushed from her body, filling every inch of her skin at an astonishing speed.

When the phenomena around her completely dissipated, Huazhu opened her eyes; the dazzling light in her golden pupils slowly weakened until it returned to normal.

"Yiye?" GuaGua was stunned.

The legs of the Little Black Hat grew longer, with symmetrical lines, slender and straight, exuding a unique charm under the light.

A pair of Scissor Pincers grew larger, noiseless when opened and closed, becoming sharper than before.

Her face had also grown a bit, losing a touch of tenderness and gaining some elegance, becoming increasingly noble.

Of course, none of these mattered.
