The Great Ruler: The Ice Emperor Descends, Freezing the World!

"The spirit of the Luo River?"

Upon hearing this, Bing Tianxiao whispered playfully in her ear:

"Holy crap! The spirit of the Luo River?!"

"That's the fifth-ranked spirit beast on the Earthly Ranking in the 'Record of Ten Thousand Beasts,' hailed as the most mysterious!"

In fact, he knew this news, after all, in the original work this spirit beast was a spirit beast after the Four Spirits!

Looking at Bing Tianxiao's exaggerated performance, a hint of helplessness flashed in Luo Li's cold eyes.

But the corner of his lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

"It's not as exaggerated as you say, I just got lucky and gained their approval."

Her voice remained cold and aloof.

"You're lucky. If someone else tried, they'd probably freeze into an ice sculpture before even touching the edge of the Luo River."

Bing Tianxiao pursed his lips, then resumed his roguish smile, patting his chest:

"However, since my Luo Li is so amazing, I, as her partner, can't fall too far behind."

Looks like I'll have to find at least one of the top-ranked mythical beasts in the future, otherwise people will think I'm a kept man.

Upon hearing the words "my Luo Li," Luo Li's fair, jade-like ears lit up.

It was once again quietly tinged with a touch of crimson.

She turned her head and glared fiercely at Bing Tianxiao.

There wasn't much murderous intent in her eyes; instead, there was a hint of coquettishness.

"nonsense."

"hey-hey……"

Bing Tianxiao smiled shamelessly.

"Kid, do you still want a reward?"

Old Bai said irritably.

"want!"

Bing Tianxiao took the crystal token and went to the front again.

"This is your reward."

With a flick of his finger, Elder Bai caused the crystal tablet in Bing Tianxiao's hand to begin to shimmer.

The original 1,500 spirit points suddenly became 6,500...

"Alright, all the challenges are complete. Next..."

Old Master Bai smiled slightly and waved his sleeve.

Behind them, the air twisted and light surged, and a massive bronze gate, hundreds of feet tall, appeared out of thin air, then slowly opened.

"Welcome to the Northern Spiritual Academy."

As Bai Lao's words fell.

The eyes of countless new students brimmed with barely concealed excitement.

Bing Tianxiao, without any hesitation, took Luo Li's hand.

They stepped into the massive bronze gate that exuded an ancient aura.

Through the distorted light, the scene before me suddenly opened up.

A rich, pure spiritual energy wafted over, making one's pores open up involuntarily.

But what is most awe-inspiring is not this spiritual energy.

Instead, what met everyone's eyes was a magnificent and awe-inspiring scene.

It was a vast land with no end in sight, dotted with countless enormous cultivation halls.

The mountains stretch endlessly, with occasional waterfalls cascading down like silver rivers, creating a magnificent and awe-inspiring landscape amidst the lush greenery.

Inside the Spiritual Academy, countless figures swept across the sky.

In some training grounds, figures leaped and bounded, and powerful spiritual energies clashed, creating a series of low, rumbling sounds.

Within that majestic and seemingly endless spiritual academy, the most striking feature is undoubtedly the enormous mountain at its central location.

The mountain has a unique shape, resembling a mythical bird with outstretched wings.

An inexplicable sense of oppression emanated from the bird-shaped mountain, enveloping the entire area.

"What a grand gesture..."

Bing Tianxiao tilted his head back and couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.

If he remembered correctly, the prototype of this mountain was the guardian beast of the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy—the Northern Nether Dragon Kun.

A Ninth-Rank Supreme Being, or even someone about to step into the Earthly Supreme Being realm!

And on the vast, boundless wings of that giant bird mountain, a dazzling golden light was shimmering.

Two enormous stone tablets, like waterfalls, are inscribed with names that shimmer with spiritual light, written in a flowing, elegant style.

It was as if they were proclaiming their glory to every student who stepped into this place.

Bing Tianxiao's gaze was fixed on that spot, where three words were clearly engraved—

The Divine Soul Ranking!

On the other side, there were two even more oppressive words—

The Heavenly Ranking!

"Isn't it amazing?"

Just as Bing Tianxiao was examining the two huge stone tablets, a clear female voice rang out beside him.

Bing Tianxiao turned his head.

Then, Senior Sister Anran walked forward.

She stretched out her slender finger and pointed towards the majestic mountain that resembled a divine bird spreading its wings.

"Those two stone tablets are the target that all the students in the entire Spirit Academy are crazy about."

"The one on the left is called the 'Divine Soul Ranking'."

As the name suggests, it is a ranking list set up for students in the Divine Soul Realm.

Those who can leave their names here are all top performers in their respective realms. For many freshmen, this is their first goal to strive for after entering the Spirit Academy.

At this point, An Ran glanced at Bing Tianxiao and Luo Li, her tone somewhat helpless:

"Of course, with your two freakish strength, this Divine Soul Ranking is just a decoration for you, you can skip it directly."

Bing Tianxiao chuckled and shrugged noncommittally: "Senior, you flatter me. We're very low-key."

An Ran rolled her eyes.

She took a deep breath, her expression becoming serious, and her finger moved towards the Heavenly Ranking on the right.

"What you should really focus on is that one on the right—the 'Heavenly Ranking'!"

Anran's voice conveyed a deep sense of awe and longing:

"The Heavenly Ranking is the true core and source of glory for the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy! It has no restrictions on cultivation level; it only considers absolute strength!"

"Those who can make it onto the Heavenly Ranking are all monstrous talents among the geniuses of the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy! Any one of them could cause a great stir on the Northern Cang Continent if they went out."

"Especially those guys ranked in the top three of the Heavenly Ranking..."

A hint of awe flashed in An Ran's eyes. "That can't be described as genius anymore, it's simply a complete monster."

"Oh? The Heavenly Ranking?"

Bing Tianxiao stroked his chin, a strong interest igniting in his eyes.

He turned his head, a roguish smile on his face, and looked at Luo Li, who stood quietly beside him, gently squeezing her soft, jade-like hand:

"Heroine, did you hear that? It's the Heavenly Ranking!"

Luo Li glanced at him, her cool eyes flickering slightly: "You want to fight for it now?"

"Of course I want to, but unfortunately I can't."

Bing Tianxiao looked up at the towering Heavenly Ranking Stele.

"These top three guys are at least one level higher than me now, I'm not that arrogant."

"However... who knows what might happen in the future."

He turned his head and looked intently at Luo Li:

"Now that I, Bing Tianxiao, have come to the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy, I will never be content to lag behind others."

If you're going to do it, you have to be the most dazzling number one!

If a freshman had said these words, he would have been ridiculed by the upperclassmen for being ignorant and arrogant.

But coming from Bing Tianxiao, coupled with the terrifying strength he displayed, it was impossible for anyone to feel any sense of contempt.

An Ran, who was listening from the side, was slightly taken aback, then shook her head with a wry smile.

These two prodigies really treat the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy like their own home.
