Ten days later.
Chessboard College's special laboratory.
Lei Lin passed the heavy anti-materiel rifle to Li Xiang with satisfaction. The black gun had silvery-white lines that resembled the edge of the waves.
Layers of dark purple and gold patterns spread out from the end of the gun with a majestic aura. They extended to the front of the gun barrel, spanning across all the key areas.
Li Xiang's eyes flashed with a faint golden light. His slender fingers gently held onto the anti-materiel rifle Nirvana. The heavy touch allowed him to easily control the weight of the gun without using his Machinery Mastery.
With his excellent gun sense, he immediately sensed that the creation of Nirvana was perfect. With Lei Lin's help, Li Xiang had successfully created this masterpiece.
[Deep Dark World].
He had inserted a brand new initial array into the anti-materiel rifle Nirvana. Under Li Xiang's modification, it had become a valuable enchanted weapon. This initial array referenced some of the characteristics of the original array. With Black Sovereign's original array and the analytical ability of the Mechanical Roulette, he could already mass-produce the relevant initial arrays.
This was Nirvana's ability. After using [Deep Dark World], one's vision would turn black and white. Everything would be separated into black and white blocks, removing the impurities and allowing one to see the essence. It could provide better visual assistance for sniping.
Lei Lin was envious of his nephew's talent to be able to complete the creation of an enchanted firearm by himself before the age of twenty.
The Wessex family had never lacked mechanical geniuses, but in the past few hundred years, the only ones who could truly convince him were his elder brother, Helo, and his deceased younger brother, Lancelot.
Now, there was also Li Xiang.
"Thank you, Teacher." Li Xiang bowed deeply. The creation of the Twin Flowers was also placed in this laboratory. However, as it was his personal creation, Lei Lin had not interfered with it other than giving advice during the blueprint design.
The anti-materiel rifle Nirvana was the result of the wisdom of many parties. It was not considered Li Xiang's personal creation, which was why he had helped.
Lei Lin waved his hand. Li Xiang smiled gratefully and left the laboratory first, preparing to mail Nirvana to Ming Xu.
He didn't know Ming Xu's school and major, but the Chronometer Tower Consortium had a common communication channel between the schools. As long as the name was mentioned, the item would be sent to the other party after being reviewed.
During the Death Omen Star Curtain, Li Xiang had destroyed Black Snake X and White Snake X, which had accompanied the two of them for a long time. This Nirvana was considered as compensation, and he hoped that this girl would like it. He was also looking forward to meeting Ming Xu in the School Championship Competition. The two of them had promised to become the strongest together. Every time he thought of this promise, his body would heat up slightly.
He was instantly filled with energy.
He had not experienced this kind of positive motivation for many years.
All this time, Li Xiang had been moving forward passively. Whether it was in his previous life or in this life, he had only felt such warmth from Ming Xu.
This was also one of the reasons why he had resolutely chosen Ming Xu over Fei Yujing.
.....
City 0001, Bai family's home.
"Congratulations, Cousin Xintong." Bai Lihu looked at the various gifts in the room and casually threw his gift box inside. "It's a solid source substance with an extremely high concentration. It should be useful for increasing your cultivation."
"Thank you, Brother Lihu." Li Yetong closed the ancient book on her thigh and smiled sweetly at him. Even though her legs had healed, she still spent a lot of time in the wheelchair and rarely got up to walk. "Such a valuable gift, you've put in a lot of effort."
"It's just a small thing. It can't compare to the big gifts from the branch family." Bai Lihu was not being modest. He casually scanned the room and found that there were many precious gifts in the corner. It was obvious that the branch family had spent a lot of effort to please her.
It was no wonder.
Ever since Bai Xintong's legs had healed, she had begun cultivating at an astonishing speed. Without any suspense, she had successfully materialized all six S-rank magic circuits in a month. She had also successfully entered the ranks of magic apprentices under Bai Dongxue's guidance.
In less than three months, she was already a level 3 magic apprentice.
She had rejected the family's recommendation and did not go to the Zero Hour Source Style Special Recruitment. Instead, she had participated in the ultimate trial in October. At that time, she might have broken through to become a level 1 magician.
In the entire Seven Continents, she was the only person with such a terrifying cultivation speed.
Bai Dongxue was a level 3 magician during the ultimate trial because he had been cultivating diligently from a young age with the goal of becoming the White King.
It was not just him. All of the Bai family disciples were the same. They never lacked resources or environments. As long as they worked hard enough, they would be much stronger than their peers.
But Li Yetong was different. She had wasted her seventeen years in a small place. She had always been a disabled person and could not even train her body. It had only been a year since she had been brought back to the main family. It was already good enough that she was able to recover her body.
But she had only used three months to make up for it and surpass it.
The family's successor list had suddenly risen from tenth to fifth place, behind Baimiya. But this time, no one objected.
This was a new star that was destined to soar. The branch family would naturally try their best to please her. Generally speaking, this kind of outstanding main family disciple would become a temporary member after entering university. They would have a certain amount of say in the promotion and dismissal of branch family members.
The Bai family's branch family member, this was a position that countless people had yearned for their entire lives.
Moreover, there was another rumor in the family.
Bai Xintong was the White King's biological daughter.
The White King, who had no children, was a pity to countless Bai family members. He had not married and had not left behind any children. As the current number one player, if he had children, they would definitely be geniuses.
Whether it was from the perspective of the Bai family or the human camp, countless people hoped that the White King would leave behind descendants. There were also countless beautiful women from aristocratic families who would go to him as long as he opened his mouth.
Just when everyone thought that the White King would be alone for the rest of his life, Bai Xintong's identity was accidentally leaked.
It was unknown who had spread the news, but as the matter caused an uproar, even the other Sovereigns were paying attention to it. There was no intention to stop it from spreading internally.
Bai Shihu knew that under such circumstances, the rumor was most likely true. Furthermore, the White King had tacitly agreed to it. This meant that he was going to make her his successor.
The White King's biological daughter. Just this identity alone was enough to make the branch family members scramble for her.
Of course, he was not foolish enough to point it out.
"I saw him at the Death Omen Star Curtain." Bai Shihu walked to the window and looked through the glass. Opposite him was the Bai clan's heavy industry that was shrouded in steam. He still did not understand why Bai Xintong liked to look at these steel monsters. With her personality, shouldn't she like flowers and plants, blue seas and blue skies?
Li Yetong's hand that was holding the book trembled slightly. She turned her head and revealed a beautiful smile, "Is he doing well?"
"See for yourself." Bai Shihu secretly praised her in his heart. He did not know who she had inherited such beautiful eyes and face. When she grew up, she would definitely be a demoness that would bring calamity to the country. "He's very arrogant. I have to clean up after him when something happens."
"Sorry to trouble you, Cousin Shihu." Li Yetong smiled faintly. She knew Li Xiang's personality better than anyone else. It was also hard for Bai Shihu to cover up for him.
She really wanted to see him soon.
"What trouble? I'm not the cold Bai Ling who ignored everyone, nor am I the hypocrite Bai Dongxue. Since you have promised to fight me when you become a level 3 magician, I will help you. This is very fair. " Bai Shihu stood with his hands behind his back and stood beside her wheelchair. Suddenly, a majestic aura rose, revealing his domineering aura, "He is much stronger than I imagined. He is also a strong opponent."
"Your aura is very cold. I'm not your opponent." Li Yetong pursed her lips and snickered, "Level 3 magician? That's still very far away."
"Hmph, others might not know, but do you think I don't know? Your Book of Prophecy has the ability to foresee the future, right? Can you foresee the outcome of our battle? "Bai Shihu looked at the steam in the distance and asked lightly.
Li Yetong nodded and then shook her head, "Yes, but I didn't see it. Brother Shihu, don't you think foresight is very boring? When you don't have this ability, you are very envious, but when you have it, you feel very uncomfortable. It is like Pandora's Box, tempting you to see everything, but after you see it, you feel very bored. If there is a person who has the ability to foresee the future and can't control himself, how depressing would it be? "
"You, on the other hand, feel bored when everyone is envious of your ability." Bai Shihu laughed and patted her shoulder heavily, "Okay, I won't disturb you anymore."
Bai Shihu strode away. He was here to give her a gift and mention Li Xiang. In the Bai family, there should be many people who were bribed by her. This little girl seemed to be aloof from worldly affairs, but in fact … she was more ruthless and ambitious than anyone else.
"Knock, knock, knock —"
Someone knocked on the door again.
Those who knocked on the door were all members of the branch family and the main family.
Li Yetong was a little excited. She stood up and opened the door herself.
As she expected, the person who walked in was a young man with a sneaky look.
"Miss Yetong, your room is really enviable. I spent a lot of my dad's money, but I can't get a room that is even one percent as beautiful as yours." Bai Jiaqi chuckled, looking indescribably wretched. He threw his gift box on the ground, then took out a document hidden in his pocket and quietly handed it to her. "I didn't let you down."
Li Yetong was Li Xiang's sister.
Bai Jiaqi was Li Xiang's loyal follower. Even his dad didn't know that he had been on Li Xiang's pirate ship for a long time. He had always been an important spy planted by Li Xiang in the Bai family.
He was also one of Li Yetong's important contacts.
Bai Jiaqi had a bad reputation in the family, and he was not very capable. The main family didn't like him, so few people paid attention to what he did. This made it easier for him to take action.
Taking advantage of the gift, this was the first time he met Li Yetong in public.
This girl was too beautiful and her cheeks were too pale. After coming into contact with this pair of brother and sister, he was even more convinced that these two were terrible guys.
"Thank you." Li Yetong took the document and spread it on the table. It was a top-secret update on the School Championship Competition.
Although this School Championship Competition was huge, it didn't announce any information to the public. People outside could only know some trivial things. Perhaps they would only know one or two things when the results were out.
It was completely different from the Ultimate Training.
She needed to understand this to know her brother's current situation. Only then could she have a more perfect prediction.
The predictions of the Book of Prophecy had great restrictions and conditions. It was very harsh on the predicted target, the diviner, and the conditions.
In the past, all the predictions were blank as long as the target was Li Xiang.
It was as if he was excluded from the Book of Prophecy.
This made Li Yetong have to find the relevant information herself.
"Hehe, it's a small matter. Last time, thanks to Miss Yetong speaking up for me, I wasn't bullied by those bastards from the main family." Bai Jiaqi laughed casually. After Bai Yunfei's death, the sixteenth branch family was silent for a long time.
Without any outstanding descendants, the sixteenth branch family had no choice but to choose Fei Yujing as the representative of this generation. Bai Mumu and Bai Wuxin were very famous among the later generation, but distant water couldn't put out a nearby fire.
The sixteenth branch family was weak, which made Bai Jiaqi's life in the Bai family uncomfortable. He turned over a new leaf and returned to the family to study, which made him have to face those messy relatives.
It was also thanks to those bastards from the main family that he had a chance to get in touch with Li Yetong.
"Cousin, don't worry. Those people won't trouble you in the future." Li Yetong chuckled, a trace of killing intent flashing in her eyes.
She continued to flip through the information and finished it quickly. No wonder Bai Jiaqi rushed over, there was a lot of information inside.
"So the three main battlefields are actually like this." Li Yetong frowned. The style of this School Championship was too different from the previous ones, so there must be someone behind it. "The Jadeite Forest is actually the habitat of dragons and fairies. Didn't these different races of ancient times secretly hide there? The Deep Sea Kingdom is also not simple. I thought the participants were required to dive into the deep sea, but I didn't expect that the ancient ruins of the Blue Planet would be used as the battlefield. Ancient Loulan? The location of the Dark Whispers is the ruins of the Sky Clan that the Chronometer Tower has been researching these years … "
"Sky Clan!" Bai Jiaqi had never heard of the first two, but the Sky Clan was well-known.
In his early years, he was ignorant and didn't know anything about human geography, but the Sky Clan was too famous, so famous that even he knew about it since he was young.
This clan also had other names, such as angels, winged people, and so on. There were countless literature records and myths about them, and they had always been the favorite special clan of many creators.
But the Sky Clan had already been destroyed hundreds of years ago.
They followed the first group of players to fight against the disaster, and the entire clan fell into darkness and perished in the endless darkness.
More than a hundred years ago, the scholars of the Chronometer Tower discovered the ruins of the Sky Clan's territory and launched an uninterrupted investigation for a hundred years. The content had always been a mystery, and no information had been announced to this day.
This time, the ruins would be the main battlefield!
It could be seen that the Chronometer Tower had complete control over it, and only places with many opportunities would be set up like this.
"Not long after the news was announced, more and more schools are interested in the School Championship. Unfortunately, the quota has been confirmed." Bai Jiaqi showed an envious face, "One of our branch family was supposed to go …"
Thinking of that person, he immediately shut up.
"Sister Fei? Is she … is she feeling better? " Li Yetong sighed. He heard that some time ago, Fei Yujing, who came back from the Death Omen Star Curtain, was suddenly infected with a serious illness. She kept screaming and was in great pain, as if a new soul was lodged in her body.
In addition, the sixteenth branch family suffered another heavy loss. The sixteenth ancestor personally came, but he couldn't cure her strange illness. Instead, he said that she was "useless" and even took away the Frost Sword that was given to her.
The sixteenth ancestor's change in attitude made the Fei Clan fall to the bottom in an instant, and everyone stepped on them. Overnight, only Fei Yujing, Fei Zilan, and a few old people were left. The situation was bleak.
Keihoku University was one of the twenty universities this time. She was qualified to go as the first freshman, but now …
