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

Amidst this uproar, Bing Tianxiao, the person involved...

At this moment, however, he was leisurely lying on a chair in the courtyard, with his legs crossed, looking completely at ease.

"Tsk tsk, these guys really have nothing better to do. It's just a fight, why are they getting so worked up?"

He mumbled incoherently while basking in the sun.

Under the tree, Luo Li sat cross-legged, quietly wiping the Luo Shen Sword in her hand.

Sunlight shone on her cool profile, making her look as beautiful as a painting.

Hearing Bing Tianxiao's words, she didn't even lift her eyelids, but simply said:

"You're the one who made such a big fuss."

"Hehe, that's called building momentum!"

Bing Tianxiao moved closer to Luo Li and said with a grin:

"Besides, how can I show off my prestige as the future number one on the Heavenly Ranking if I don't make a big scene?"

Luo Li paused slightly as she wiped the longsword.

She raised her head, her glassy eyes fixed intently on Bing Tianxiao:

"Don't be careless. Li Xuantong is quite strong, so be careful."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I know you're worried about me."

Bing Tianxiao waved his hand dismissively and sprang up from his chair.

Although he was aware that the duel was still a month away, he showed no sign of panic.

In his view, pressure is something to be reserved for the opponent.

"However, it's not interesting to stay cooped up in the academy all day cultivating for more than a month."

He turned around, his gaze fixed intently on Luo Li:

"Speaking of which, we haven't gone on any training missions since we entered the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy."

"I just checked, and with the fifth-ranked person on the Heavenly Ranking, I can accept Heavenly-level missions."

Bing Tianxiao extended his hand to Luo Li in an inviting gesture, and asked with a grin:

"So, Luo Li, are you interested in coming with me?"

Luo Li hesitated for a moment, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.

Indeed, spending all day cultivating in the new student area can be quite tedious.

"it is good."

With a flick of her wrist, the Luoshen Sword returned to its sheath with a crisp, light "click".

Then, she slowly stood up, her white dress as white as snow, and placed her delicate, slender hand in Bing Tianxiao's palm.

"Alright! Let's go!"

Bing Tianxiao gripped his fist tightly, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

The two moved in a flash, transforming into streaks of light.

……

Soon, the two arrived at the mission hall of the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy.

This is where the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy issues various tasks and provides Spiritual Points.

The tasks released are roughly divided into three levels: Heaven, Earth, and Human.

The Heavenly-level mission that Bing Tianxiao mentioned is a very high-level mission.

This kind of task not only requires skill, but also necessitates that the trainees have sufficient qualifications.

Normally, new students need a certain level of experience to take on this kind of task.

However, the top ten on the daily ranking can disregard this requirement.

However, not many people in the entire college have achieved this during their freshman year.

He has made a breakthrough in the history of the institute!

Inside the mission hall, there was a great deal of noise.

Countless returning students are here searching for suitable tasks in exchange for spirit points.

However, when the two figures, one in blue and one in white, stepped into the main hall side by side, the originally noisy hall instantly became quieter.

Countless gazes, filled with awe, curiosity, and amusement, were cast upon them.

After all, only this guy dared to confront Li Xuantong head-on during his freshman year, and now he's swaggering over to accept a mission.

"That's... Bing Tianxiao and Luo Li?"

"What are they doing here? Instead of preparing for war, they have the leisure to come and take on missions?"

"Judging from this, it seems like they're heading to the Heavenly Rank mission area?"

Bing Tianxiao ignored the surrounding chatter, grabbed Luo Li, and walked straight through the crowd to the deepest part of the main hall.

There floated a huge light screen there—the "Heavenly-level Mission Zone," which only the top 100 on the Heavenly Ranking could accept.

One of the instructors in charge of registration was dozing off when he sensed someone approaching and lazily raised his head:

"Heavenly-level area, unauthorized personnel... Hmm? Is that you, kid?"

The mentor recognized Bing Tianxiao, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

He had also heard a little about the new students who had caused such a stir at the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy.

Bing Tianxiao smiled and cupped his hands in greeting to his mentor: "Mentor, you have a good eye. It is indeed me."

"I was just bored, so I thought I'd come and contribute to the academy..."

The mentor's lips twitched, and as usual, he reminded him, "Although you are the top freshman this year, you also have the strength to be fifth on the Heavenly Ranking."

But this Heavenly-level mission is no joke.

Even the lowest-level Heavenly Rank low-grade mission can lead to utter destruction with the slightest mistake.

As he spoke, he waved his hand.

A ripple appeared on the light screen in front of them, and a dense list of tasks emerged.

"See for yourself. Heavenly-level missions are divided into three tiers: lower, middle, and upper. You can choose either the lower or middle tier..."

"As for the best quality, you'd better not even think about it..."

The tutor's tone became a bit more serious:

"In recent years, only Shen Cangsheng has completed a top-tier Heaven-level mission once."

The older students watching from the sidelines were already used to it.

After all, they had heard these words more than once.

"Of course, not all Heavenly-level missions are about fighting and killing."

The instructor took a sip of tea and slowly continued his introduction:

"Among these, the most popular is naturally the Spirit Treasure quest."

"Among these, the most popular is naturally the Spirit Treasure quest."

This kind of mission involves the academy using intelligence to discover some undiscovered spiritual relics.

Go in and explore; any treasures you find are yours to keep, just remember to record what you find inside.

The risk is low, and the potential returns are huge.

If you're lucky enough to acquire a divine-level spiritual technique or a top-grade spiritual weapon, that's like ascending to the heavens in one step.

The mentor smiled and continued:

"Besides the Spirit Treasure missions, there are all sorts of other commissions."

For example, chambers of commerce or families may issue escort missions to protect important supplies or personnel.

Although it sounds cheap, it has the advantage of a relatively high safety factor and gives a decent amount of spirit points...

Bing Tianxiao listened with great interest, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

"A bodyguard? I wonder if it's possible to have fun while providing protection..."

Luo Li glanced at him helplessly, gently tugged at his sleeve, and whispered, "Be serious."

"Hehe, just kidding."

Bing Tianxiao shrugged, his gaze returning to the enormous light screen.

He quickly scanned the scrolling list of top-tier missions.

"Hunt down the Celestial-Rank Spirit Beast Crimson Flame Demon Lion and take its core. Location: Deep within the Crimson Flame Mountains. Reward: Three million Spirit Points."

"Exploring the ruins of the 'Swamp of Dry Bones'..."

"The swamp? It's dirty and smelly, and I'll have to wash my clothes if I get them dirty. I'm not going."

Luo Li watched quietly from the side, her gaze quickly filtering through the information.

Her finger gently touched a spot on the light screen:

"How about this? Hunt down a giant python and take its gallbladder."

A mid-stage Transformation Realm Heaven-Rank Spirit Beast. Reward: Four million Spirit Points.

Bing Tianxiao followed her slender fingers and touched his chin: "Mid-stage Transformation Realm...not a bad practice subject."
