Chapter 457: The Potential of a Fallen Star
“Whoosh—whoosh—”
Streaks of light overflowed, dazzling and colorful. Looking at the brilliant star enveloped in a seven-colored glow, Jia Na’s heart was equally surprised.
Just a second ago, this Fallen Star had appeared “lifeless” to the outside world, but the moment it received Jia Na’s Law power, it was completely transformed.
Not only did its light greatly intensify, but Jia Na could also sense the Fallen Star’s joyful emotions from the law awareness cluster.
However, due to time constraints, Jia Na, who had to leave the Realm Gate, could only temporarily sever her connection with the Fallen Star. She then turned around and re-entered the Realm Gate behind her—
“Bang—”
Under the immense pull of the Realm Gate, Jia Na’s spirit body returned to the classroom in the Book World.
With Jia Na’s return, everyone in the classroom turned their gazes towards her, like spotlights.
This included Hefais-Chixing, who had not paid much attention to Jia Na before.
“So you are the Apprentice who ‘saved Turin’ by summoning a Seraphim.”
Looking at the roster with Jia Na’s origin information from the Turin Wizard Gathering Place, Hefais-Chixing couldn’t help but recall Kuroro-kin’s evaluation of Jia Na at the time:
“She might be the person we’ve been waiting for—”
More accurately, this statement, which could hardly be called an evaluation, was actually an exclamation from Victor-Fangzhi, the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge, and Kuroro-kin merely relayed it.
As a wizard of the younger generation, Hefais-Chixing had not experienced the Great Cataclysm period. However, since he truly entered the core power circle of the White Tower, he gradually began to understand some secrets that ordinary people could not.
This included the fact that “the person who has been waiting” mentioned by Victor-Fangzhi, the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge, was actually a comrade who fought alongside him during the Great Cataclysm—namely, Evefresia-Twilight, the Tier 3 Wizard who wielded the Law of Nature and Life.
Of course, according to Hefais-Chixing’s understanding, he believed that the reason the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge referred to Jia Na as “the one who has been waiting” was also because, up until now, Jia Na was the only Wizard Apprentice to gain the recognition of the Growth Law.
This also meant that Jia Na had a certain probability of replacing Evefresia-Twilight’s position in the future and becoming the next person to wield the Law of Nature and Life. Of course, this was merely a “probability” and not an absolute certainty.
After all, the Law of Nature and Life, as one of the most supreme Main Laws in the Main Material World, even though it has now been damaged by an Outer God, is not something anyone can covet.
Of course, based on the fact that Jia Na had already mastered a Growth Law Fragment, coupled with the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge’s evaluation, Hefais-Chixing could imagine what kind of resources the White Tower would use to cultivate her. “The Fallen Star you chose has quite good potential. Work hard and don’t waste your talent.”
“Understood, thank you for your guidance.”
Hearing Hefais-Chixing’s seemingly profound words, Jia Na nodded humbly.
“Alright, is there anyone else who wants to voluntarily enter the Realm Gate?”
Seeing Jia Na return to her seat, Hefais-Chixing’s gaze turned back to the other Apprentices and he asked.
“Professor, I want to apply—”
“Professor, I want to try—”
Perhaps the success of the first two people also aroused the challenge desire of others.
This time, without Hefais-Chixing repeatedly asking, several Wizard Apprentices eagerly raised their hands, indicating that they wanted to try it themselves.
“Very good, then you come up first.”
Upon hearing this, the male Apprentice who had raised his hand first quickly walked to the Realm Gate and, almost without any hesitation, stepped into the Realm Gate.
“From now on, I will no longer call names. Those who wish to try to establish a connection with a Fallen Star can directly enter the Realm Gate. Of course, there is only one free opportunity. Whether you decide to go in today is entirely up to your own choice.”
The “free opportunity” Hefais-Chixing mentioned naturally referred to the first chance to borrow the power of the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge.
And after this opportunity was used up, Wizard Apprentices would have to rely on themselves the next time they entered the Realm Gate.
Of course, Wizard Apprentices could also choose to spend contribution points to continue exchanging for assistance from the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge.
However, the contribution points required for each assistance from the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge were immense, and not something ordinary people could afford—
There were thirty-two Wizard Apprentices who had mastered Law Fragments, but only fifteen Wizard Apprentices chose to enter the Realm Gate in this class, not even half the number.
Among these fifteen people, Louis Tor-Turan and Hai La - Herheim were naturally included. The Fallen Stars they chose were also relatively pure elemental Fallen Stars.
For example, the Fallen Star Louis Tor-Turan chose was a Fire Element Plane that once had a pure fire-element Law.
And Hai La - Herheim chose a Dark Plane that was as black as ink on the outside but possessed a powerful aura of death.
In fact, when Hai La - Herheim chose her Fallen Star, there was even a scene where she was surrounded by various dark-attribute Fallen Stars. Although it was not as spectacular as when Jia Na chose her Fallen Star, she was still a rather eye-catching Wizard Apprentice in today’s Fallen Star selection.
Besides the two of them, everyone else, without exception, successfully chose a Fallen Star that matched their own Law, and there were no failures.
“Indeed, the Apprentices who dared to enter the Realm Gate today are all those who are relatively confident in the Law they have mastered….”
And the other seventeen people, although they did not choose a Fallen Star, it was merely out of caution, not fear or retreat.
After all, there was only one chance to borrow the power of the Lord of Wisdom and Knowledge. No one would, for reasons of momentary impulsiveness or “eagerness to show off,” rashly do something they weren’t confident about without being prepared.
Moreover, those who could join the White Tower were all top geniuses from various Wizard Gathering Places. No one would do something detrimental to themselves out of impulsiveness.
“Alright, that’s all for this class. Class dismissed—”
