After this period of hard work, Ye Ling was completely different from before.
In just a few days, he had advanced from First Rank Second Level to First Rank Ninth Level.
This leap was astonishing.
In the Federation, no one had ever upgraded so quickly.
Even Huo Xian’er, who had been at First Rank Seventh Level, had only managed to reach First Rank Eighth Level after days of hard work.
Ye Ling had now surpassed Huo Xian’er by one level.
Fortunately, Ye Ling and Huo Xian’er hadn’t encountered each other in the past few days.
Therefore, no one knew about Ye Ling’s current First Rank Ninth Level strength.
Tomorrow was the so-called Spirit Tamer Academy assessment.
Ye Ling, at First Rank Ninth Level, was a unique existence in the entire Skyshine City Higher Education Institution.
With such strength, it was certain that he would astonish everyone tomorrow.
Ye Ling could already envision the four top Spirit Tamer Academies vying to recruit him.
Relaxed, Ye Ling slept exceptionally well that night.
After intense preparation, facing the battlefield now felt much easier.
Because he had enough strength to face the battlefield, there was no need to be so tense.
…
The night passed quickly.
The sun rose as usual, casting its morning light on the towering walls of Skyshine City.
The city, standing tall for years, looked majestic.
Today, unlike usual, the sky was bustling.
Airships from different directions converged on Skyshine City.
Each airship had its own emblem or distinctive feature.
These airships represented various Spirit Tamer Academies.
All the airships flew towards one direction.
That direction was the center of Skyshine City, the Lord’s Mansion.
In front of the Lord’s Mansion was a huge square, more than enough to accommodate these airships.
At the forefront were four airships.
These four airships represented the Azure Dragon Spirit Tamer Academy, White Tiger Spirit Tamer Academy, Vermilion Bird Spirit Tamer Academy, and Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy.
These four Spirit Tamer Academies were the top academies in the entire Federation.
Behind the four top Spirit Tamer Academies were other advanced Spirit Tamer Academies, followed by intermediate Spirit Tamer Academies, and at the end were the lower-level Spirit Tamer Academies.
Compared to the four top Spirit Tamer Academies, the other academies’ airships were noticeably smaller.
This was due to the difference in funding between the academies.
The Federation invested more resources in the top Spirit Tamer Academies, resulting in more luxurious airships.
The lower-level Spirit Tamer Academies received the least resources.
In the center of the Lord’s Mansion, the lord, Shang Lingkong, a middle-aged man, stood at the forefront.
The surrounding guards stood at attention, ready for anything.
Even Shang Lingkong had to take these visiting Spirit Tamer Academies seriously.
The representatives from the four top Spirit Tamer Academies were all Spirit Tamers of Seventh Rank, not weaker than Shang Lingkong.
In the entire Federation, they were considered high-level combat power.
The Spirit Tamer Academy airships landed one by one.
People in various uniforms disembarked from their respective airships.
Leading the groups were the representatives: Lu Feng from Azure Dragon Spirit Tamer Academy (Seventh Rank Eighth Level), Bai Tong from White Tiger Spirit Tamer Academy (Seventh Rank Seventh Level), Hong Xiu from Vermilion Bird Spirit Tamer Academy (Seventh Rank Eighth Level), and Huo Ling from Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy (Seventh Rank Seventh Level).
Except for Huo Ling, the other three had been coming to Skyshine City for years to select students.
Shang Lingkong was very familiar with them.
Only Huo Ling was here for the first time this year.
“Hahaha! You all finally arrived. I’ve been waiting for a long time.”
Shang Lingkong laughed heartily and stepped forward to greet them.
Hearing his laughter, the representatives from the Spirit Tamer Academies returned the greeting.
Although Skyshine City wasn’t a large city, it was still a city within the Federation.
As the lord of the city, Shang Lingkong held a certain status in the Federation.
Even though the top Spirit Tamer Academies had significant influence in the Federation, the representatives were humble in front of Shang Lingkong.
As Spirit Tamers, they knew the importance of making friends rather than enemies.
Otherwise, the road ahead would be very difficult.
Huo Ling, looking to be in her twenties, had a delicate face with a beauty mark at the corner of her eye.
She gave off an impression of immense charm.
One might easily fall under her spell.
Huo Ling covered her mouth and chuckled lightly.
“Lord Shang, nice to meet you. This is our first meeting. I am Huo Ling from the Huo family of Sacred City.”
“And I am the representative of Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy this time. I came specifically for that little girl from our branch family. I wonder if she is truly as talented as they say.”
