Library of Heaven’s Path 2: Eternal Destiny

Chapter 60: I'll Do It Myself

"…"

"What's happening?"

"It looks like... Miss Yu's furnace has ignited too..."

"Didn't she just say she couldn't do it? Her mouth says no, but her body is quite honest."

The onlookers widened their eyes again.

Liu Mingyue had claimed the method was useless and was about to report it, then broke through; Yu Xiaoyu said she couldn't do it, and the next moment, her furnace ignited...

They had seen people try to save face, but never someone embarrassing themselves this much...

"Are these two girls crazy? Unless... the master and disciples came here not for a public lecture but to put on a show!"

Lu Mingrong, Wu Yunzhou, and the others were dumbfounded.

They had been trying to figure out how to mitigate the impact and save face for the genius, only to witness this scene...

No need for formations, power guidance, or any methods—just swallowing the blood and the furnace ignites... If it was this easy, what were we struggling with all this time?

"???"

The crowd was just shocked, but Yu Xiaoyu, under their gaze, had her eyes wide open and her eyelids twitching.

This was "Luo Zhi Bird" essence blood, something confirmed as incapable of igniting. So why did it work? How did it succeed?

In an instant, the young lady of the city lord's mansion felt her worldview collapse. Everything she had learned seemed useless.

Especially after all the pretense... it turned out she just needed to absorb the blood's power into the source pool! If she had known it was this simple, why pretend?

A lifetime of acting skills wasted...

"Successfully igniting it only shows that Teacher Zhang did his job; it doesn't mean anything yet. Let's see what grade it is. If it's not high, it still doesn't mean much..." Chen Hao's voice rang out again.

"Right, we all want to know what grade the Qingguang Beast essence blood can ignite!"

With these words, everyone's eyes focused again. Liu Mingyue had ignited a top-grade furnace, could Miss Yu achieve the same?

"I…" Hearing the crowd, Yu Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a rush of nervousness.

Her rival, Liu Mingyue, had ignited a top-grade peak furnace using the essence blood of the Lingyun Beast, reaching the level of "Flowing Stream." Her best friend, Mo Yanxue, also reached top grade with the principal's help.

If she fell short, she’d be endlessly compared and laughed at!

But saying there was no difference? Even she didn’t believe that. Liu Mingyue used Heaven's Fate Source Beast essence blood, while she only had "Luo Zhi Bird" essence blood... The gap was too big to compare!

Obviously, even if she ignited the furnace, getting a lower grade would be lucky. Top grade… dream on!

"Maybe… forget it! I'll check again when I get back..." She smiled awkwardly and shook her head. She knew her own situation and didn’t want to embarrass herself in public.

"Xiaoyu, you refined the Qingguang Beast essence blood, which is higher than the Lingyun Beast. Don’t be modest, show it here. If Liu Mingyue dares, why shouldn’t you?" Yu Feng said.

"Yeah, show us. We want to see what grade the Qingguang Beast essence blood can ignite!"

"We're curious too..."

"I…" Yu Xiaoyu wanted to cry. ‘You really are my dear brother, not letting me embarrass myself and not letting me leave, huh? Not modest… This isn’t about modesty! Even if I wanted to show off, I can’t!’

"Xiaoyu, start. I want to see too!" Mo Yanxue also looked over, curious.

Using the same Lingyun Beast essence blood, Zhang Xuan ignited a furnace higher than the principal's. What level could the higher-grade Qingguang Beast reach?

"Alright!" With all eyes on her, there was no escape. Yu Xiaoyu gritted her teeth. ‘To hell with it, I've already embarrassed myself enough… a bit more won't matter!’

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and with a thought, began to capture the source energy.

"Hope it can be refined…" The source energy entered the source pool, instantly igniting the furnace. It quickly turned into pure power, circulating through her body.

"Is it done? That was… fast?" Yu Xiaoyu was stunned.

She had thought it would be a lower-grade furnace, but the refining speed was so fast. Feeling strange, she accelerated the process. The next moment, the crowd heard the sound of flowing water from within her body.

"It's the Flowing Stream!"

"Both furnaces are top-grade peak!"

"He ignited two top-level furnaces. Did we misjudge Teacher Zhang?"

"It seems even the dean can't do this..."

Everyone, teachers and students alike, fell silent after their earlier criticisms.

Typically, an experienced teacher would take almost half an hour, with extensive preparation and effort, to successfully ignite one furnace, and even then, the success rate wasn't high. Yet, he effortlessly ignited two within minutes...

"Chen Hao, didn't you say Teacher Zhang wasn't qualified? Now it looks like he's quite skilled. I'm considering becoming his student!"

"I'm tempted too..."

After the shock, murmurs of admiration spread among the students. Most had come expecting to see Teacher Zhang fail, influenced by Chen Hao, but his abilities were impressive!

"Don't get carried away. While it's surprising that Teacher Zhang can ignite furnaces, his skills are still average."

Seeing the growing admiration, Chen Hao gritted his teeth.

"Igniting two top-grade peak furnaces is just average?" someone retorted.

"Don't believe me? Let me explain."

Chen Hao waved his sleeve dramatically, "You heard Miss Liu and Miss Yu. They used the essence blood of Lingyun Beast and Qingguang Beast. You know how valuable this blood is. With such rare ignition materials, it's not hard to ignite a top-grade furnace. Any dedicated teacher could do it."

"Well..."

The crowd hesitated, realizing the truth. With such powerful ignition materials, the high furnace level might not be due to Teacher Zhang's skills.

"In fact, I don't even need a teacher! I could do it myself!"

Seeing their doubts, Chen Hao sneered and raised his hand, "Here are the jade bottles with essence blood. There are still two drops left. Any new student who hasn't ignited their furnace can come up. I'll help them ignite it. If I fail, I'll kneel and apologize to Teacher Zhang..."

"Jade bottles?" Zhang Xuan was surprised. He noticed the two bottles Liu Mingyue and Yu Xiaoyu had given him were missing, likely taken by Chen Hao in the chaos.
