Chapter 14: Nine Dragons Draw Heaven's Fate



Even Lu Mingrong, with all his experience, felt overwhelmed.

The limit of the Source Pool Assessment was First Grade, which was 256 strands. But the number on the pillar had reached 257...

It was like thinking the janitor was just a good singer and then realizing he was Pavarotti... How could anyone compete with that?

"Dean, it seems... it’s not over yet."

Just as Lu Mingrong was too shocked to speak, a trembling voice came from the crowd. The dean looked up and felt dizzy again.

258!

259!

260...

With the continuous influx of Heaven\'s Fate Energy, the "unregistered student" seemed like a dragon in a storm, soaring rapidly. The numbers jumped even faster than before, and in just a dozen breaths, it broke through 500 and was heading towards 1000.

The Destiny Disk in the sky seemed unprepared for someone to absorb Heaven\'s Fate Energy so quickly. It spun rapidly, releasing a dazzling red light, and the next moment, an endless stream of Heaven\'s Fate Energy poured down.

Boom!

As more energy descended, the nine dragon pillars seemed to bear an immense weight, like carrying multiple worlds. They emitted a rumbling sound, and the ground began to tremble slightly.

Waves of white mist surged like tides, crashing onto the shore, creating a strong sense of oppression.

“What’s going on?”

In all the years of Source Pool Assessments, no one had seen such a situation. The teachers were speechless, searching their minds for answers, but found nothing. It seemed there were no records of this in any books.

Even vice-principle Wu Yunzhou frowned and, after a while, couldn\'t help but ask, "Dean, there’s an anomaly. Should we stop the assessment and continue another day... Dean? Dean?"

He called out twice, but Lu Mingrong didn’t respond.

Wu Yunzhou turned and was stunned.

Lu Mingrong, who had just been so authoritative, now looked as if he had remembered something shocking. His pupils were wide with disbelief, and his hands were trembling.

“Dean…”

Afraid something was wrong, he called out again, but before he could finish, the dean\'s voice rang out, "Could it be... the legendary Nine Dragons Draw Heaven\'s Fate?"

"Nine Dragons Draw Heaven\'s Fate?" Wu Yunzhou was puzzled.

Ran Qingxu, Wu Liuyun, and the others also looked confused.

Realizing they might not have heard of it due to limited knowledge, Lu Mingrong took a deep breath, suppressed his shock, and explained, "The Source Pool is the foundation for cultivating Source Energy. As we know, it is divided into nine grades. Our White Rock Academy teaches and imparts this to students."

Everyone nodded.

The levels of the Source Pool were common knowledge, even to children on the street.

"But what you don\'t know is..." Lu Mingrong continued, "Above First Grade, there is a Saint Grade!"

"Saint Grade?" Wu Yunzhou asked.

Lu Mingrong nodded. "Yes! These geniuses, when they first absorb Heaven\'s Fate Energy, can not only exceed 256 strands but also easily surpass 500... Because they absorb energy so quickly, the ordinary Destiny Disk can\'t supply enough power, triggering a hidden array. The nine dragon pillars will cooperate, drawing even more energy. This phenomenon is known as Nine Dragons Draw Heaven\'s Fate!"

Everyone suddenly understood.

Wu Yunzhou finally grasped the reason for the dean\'s shock and couldn’t help but ask, "Dean, do you mean... this \'unregistered\' student might have a Saint Grade talent?"

First Grade talent was already incredibly rare, almost impossible to find in the entire kingdom. Saint Grade... would be even more powerful and terrifying!

"Yes!" Lu Mingrong nodded. "However, having a Saint Grade talent isn\'t necessarily a good thing."

"What do you mean?"

This time, not only Wu Yunzhou was confused, but all the teachers were also bewildered.

Isn\'t higher talent always better?

Achieving Saint Grade should be highly desirable, so why did the dean say that?

Seeing their confusion, Lu Mingrong didn\'t hide anything and continued, "When Nine Dragons Draw Heaven\'s Fate is triggered, the descending Heaven\'s Fate Energy will increase in both quantity and speed. It\'s both a help and a test. If the absorber can keep up, the Saint Grade talent will be unlocked, leading to the path of the strongest. If they can\'t keep up, they will face unbearable consequences... It\'s like a narrow pipe that can\'t handle a larger flow of water, which will result in one outcome... an explosion!"

Dean Lu Mingrong clenched his fist. "If that happens, this genius could be severely injured on the spot. Forget about surpassing First Grade, they might not even reach Eighth Grade and could become a complete cripple."

"There\'s a chance to surpass First Grade but also a risk of falling below Eighth Grade?"

"That\'s... such a huge gap."

Everyone looked shocked.

They had thought a super genius had emerged, but now it seemed like a gamble!

Fortune and misfortune are intertwined. Sometimes, an excellent start isn\'t necessarily a good thing.

"Look, the speed at which Heaven\'s Fate Energy is descending is increasing. Let\'s hope they succeed..."

Seeing that everyone understood, Dean Lu Mingrong didn\'t say more. He looked at the people below the stage, his eyes filled with worry.

Wu Yunzhou and the others also fell silent, watching closely, trying to identify the genius causing such a commotion.

Unaware of the discussions and the so-called "Nine Dragons Draw Heaven\'s Fate," Zhang Xuan was feeling dejected because he couldn\'t find the Source Pool and couldn\'t cultivate.

Such a great opportunity was slipping away, and who knew when he’d have another chance to absorb Heaven\'s Fate Energy for free.

"Forget it!"

Pushing aside his negative emotions, Zhang Xuan controlled the Library of Heaven\'s Path to speed up the absorption of the descending energy. For him, as long as he didn\'t waste the opportunity, it was fine.

As he absorbed more Heaven\'s Fate Energy, the books in the library became clearer. Zhang Xuan noticed the energy in the air becoming richer and easier to absorb. Without hesitation, he controlled the library to devour it madly.

The library, like a connection to the Source World’s Heaven\'s Path, operated frantically. A phantom of a library seemed to appear in the sky, covering the nine dragon pillars in an instant.

Boom, boom, boom!

The white mist was swallowed like water by a giant whale, transforming into a special nourishment that filled each page of the library\'s books.

1000 strands!

2000 strands!

5000 strands!

The library devoured faster and faster, like a bottomless pit. The previously accelerated Heaven\'s Fate Energy was once again insufficient...

This meant that while Nine Dragons Draw Heaven\'s Fate was magical and brought a lot of Heaven\'s Fate Energy, it still fell short for the level of devouring by the Library of Heaven\'s Path.

Sensing the rapid depletion of energy, the Destiny Disk and the nine dragon pillars accelerated again. The Destiny Disk, in particular, turned a blazing red, as if it were burning.

Boom!

The ground\'s tremors and the rumbling in the sky grew louder and louder.

"No way!"

Lu Mingrong\'s face changed suddenly. He no longer cared about finding the "unregistered" individual and quickly looked up. He saw the Destiny Disk spinning in the sky, unable to withstand the rapid energy depletion any longer. With a "crack", a clear fracture appeared in the middle.

The lines spread, turning into small clusters of pure energy, scattering in all directions.

The Destiny Disk, which had been used countless times for Source Pool assessments at White Rock Academy, had shattered!
