They walked out of the City Lord’s Residence and found that the spiritual energy had originated from the governor’s office. At that moment, there were many people who saw the amazing site within Wuzhou, and they were all congregating at the governor’s office!
“How could someone have awakened within the governor’s office?” Ling Yunxiang curiously remarked and hastened toward it!
Upon reaching the office, everyone gave way for the city lord when they saw him.
Governor Zhou Weigen hastily came out to receive him, bowing deeply. “Hail the city lord.”
Ding Laosi, his wife, and Juncai were behind, and they hurriedly kneeled down and kowtowed to the city lord.
Ling Yunxiao said, “Get up fast. I heard you’ve produced a genius here! Where is the young genius? Bring me to him!”
Ding Laosi’s wife got excited! She thought to herself, ‘Wow, this is too much! Even the city lord is here for my son’s awakening!’ Her fat body was so excited it was shaking, and she hurriedly scrambled to stand up, pulling Ding Juncai forward and saying, “City Lord, this is my son Ding Juncai. He’s the genius that just awakened!”
Ling Yunxiao and Min Zhengyuan looked at each other in shock. Min Zhengyuan said, “Awakening a superior level one celestial gene at just ten years old, with a spiritual energy as high as twenty meters, what sort of aptitude must he have?”
Ling Yunxiao exclaimed, “Good! Very good! A young hero!”
When they said that, everyone present knew there was a mistake. Zhou Weigen could only awkwardly say, “City Lord, Ding Juncai is a level three Sunken Ice celestial gene, not a superior level one celestial gene.”
One of the onlookers in the governor’s office shouted, “City Lord, the one with the twenty-meter tall spiritual energy is still inside. He’s still awakening!”
Ling Yunxiao’s eyes widened in understanding, and he said, “Bullsh*t, a level three celestial gene wasting my time!”
After saying that, he moved past the people kneeling in front of him.
Ding Laosi’s family who was still kneeling down could only look at each other in dismay. Ding Laosi glared at his wife and berated her for speaking nonsense. However, she would not admit to any wrongdoing and said angrily, “We still don’t know what kind of celestial gene the piece of trash got. My son is still a level three genius!”
Governor Zhou Genwai had a solemn look on his face as he stood up. He knew that the situation was not promising. He hated Ding Laosi and his family for dragging him down with them.
At this time, in the hall of the governor’s office.
All of those who were guarding the door were too busy trying to look inside, and not even a single one noticed the city lord. Boss Shang was the one who saw him first, and he hurriedly kneeled. “Hail City Lord Ling.”
Everyone turned their heads around when they heard him, and they hastily kneeled down. “Hail the city lord.”
Everyone knew in their minds that master Ding Hao was not a simple person. A twenty-meter tall beam of energy that even managed to move the city lord was no common thing.
“At ease.” Ling Yunxiao waved his hand, motioning for everyone to get up before looking into the hall.
At that point, the spiritual energy that was enveloping Ding Hao had already seeped into his body, and all that was left in the outer realm was the remnants of spiritual energy.
Min Zhengyuan felt the amount of spiritual energy in the area and exclaimed, “Even the residual spiritual energy is so strong! It’s him! The superior level one genius!”
“Superior level one genius!” There was commotion from everyone. Even though they saw the twenty-meter tall spiritual energy, no one was certain. Now that Min Zhengyuan was there to confirm it, everyone stood in awe!
Ling Yunxian joyously said, “Thank the blessings of the Dancing Goddess! Wuzhou really is a place of heroes!”
A faint swirl of happiness could be seen in Min Qingqiu’s beautiful eyes when she saw Ding Hao. The prince who was wearing a white robe and standing next to her bore a dark expression on his usually handsome face.
‘D*mn, who would have thought that a piece of trash that could not awaken at fifteen and a half years could actually have a twenty-meter tall superior level one celestial gene!’
As they were discussing amongst themselves, Ding Hao felt Heaven’s Will congealing within his body.
With how high his spiritual energy was, Heaven’s Will would have sent a large amount of spiritual energy down toward him. This spiritual energy was actually a gift that the Heaven’s Will System gave everyone who awakened.
Spiritual entered his body, gathering around his dantian. The misty energy that streamed through solidified, turning into a round, white pill.
This pill was called a yuandan and was made from pure spiritual energy. A Xiantian practitioner would have turned his yuandan into an ocean. When a cultivator in Jiuzhou reached the Xiantianstage, he needed to refine his yuandan into an ocean of qi. At that time, he would enter the Qi Refinement stage and become truly qualified to be called an immortal.
Ding Hao’s aptitudes were perfect, so the yuandan was huge. It was as big as a child’s fist! After the yuandan solidified, the remnants of spiritual energy around his body gathered at the top of his head, slowly turning into a halo of light.
“Blaze! It must be a celestial gene of the blaze element…” Someone said impatiently.
“Silence!” Ling Yunxiao shouted and looked back toward the celestial gene image on Ding Hao’s head.
Within the blazing flames, there was a round and white egg. The egg cracked and a sparrow with a large head jumped out.
“This is…” Ling Yunxiao wanted to see more but the spiritual image suddenly disappeared.
“This celestial gene’s image disappeared really quick,” he said to himself. “Dean Min, what kind of celestial gene is this?”
Dean Min’s face was a bit dark. He said, “It should be a growth type celestial gene. I don’t have many details other than that.”
There were a lot of people within the governor’s office at that moment, but no one made a sound. Everyone was puzzled, having never seen a celestial gene like that. The only sound was the old man flipping through a book. Everyone’s gaze was on him.
Suddenly, the old man stopped and said in a trembling voice, “Blaze Beast. A growth-type celestial gene, superior level one!”
“It really is a superior level one!” Ling Yunxiao said happily!
Min Zhengyuan nodded. “Growth-type celestial gene Blaze Beast. A mixture of an elemental celestial gene and a beast celestial gene. The potential for growth should be very good! However, a growth-type, sigh…”
He seemed to be unhappy with the fact that it was a growth-type celestial gene.
Min Qingqiu’s eyes sparkled and said, “Dad, even though a growth-type celestial gene does have its risks, Ding Hao is mature for his age, and he cultivates with purpose. He already has the ability of a second rate tutor, so I believe that he will definitely maintain the rank of a superior level one and not fall off.”
The prince was not happy hearing Min Qingqiu help Ding Hao and said, “Senior Qingqiu, I’ve heard that growth-type celestial genes were trash. Out of ten growth-types, five would drop below level four, three would stabilize at level three, and only one or two would be at level one or two. As for managing to maintain the status as a superior level one, it’s unheard of!”
Upon listening to what the prince had to say, Ling Yunxiao looked at Ding Hao with regret. A superior level one was still a superior level one, but why a growth-type. It was a sad situation.
Min Qingqiu said, “It’s correct that it is unheard of, but I believe that master Ding can do what no one has!”
Min Zhengyuan was shocked at how much she believed in Ding Hao. He looked at Ding Hao before saying, “A growth-type celestial gene needs to go through many awakenings. If it drops a level even once, it would no longer be a superior level one. It’s not that simple!”
The onlookers heard what Ling Yunxiao and Min Zhengyuan said, and they could only look at Ding Hao with pity.
However, right at that moment, the statue of the Dancing Goddess in the public square suddenly lit up. Very clear and visible energy descended from the sky into the governor’s office. Surrounding Ding Hao’s body, it formed a circle of indistinct light.
“This…” Min Zhengyuan and everyone else had a puzzled look, followed by a look of surprise!
“My god, this is…”
“Don’t tell me this is the legendary…”
Min Zhengyuan who felt regret at Ding hao’s growth-type celestial gene earlier could only stare in disbelief, before saying, “This is a celestial blessing? It definitely is a celestial blessing! My god, even within Jiuzhou academy only a handful of people have a celestial blessing! Just how good is the potential of his celestial gene?”
The public was also shocked, and they shouted, “The Dancing Goddess has manifested! She has given her blessing!”
Ling Yunxiao laughed raucously, “Wuzhou’s fortune! Wuzhou’s great fortune! Not only is it a superior level one celestial gene, he even got a celestial blessing! This potential… I’m afraid it could even shock the emperor!”
He even managed to get a celestial blessing! The prince could only look in shock and envy!
Ding Hao began to wake up while everyone was chattering around him.
He was very satisfied with the celestial gene that he managed to get!
That was because… there were some hidden elements to this celestial gene! It was not just a simple Blaze Beast!
When Ding Hao woke up, he looked at the people outside. The number of people outside was ten times more than before he awakened!
Boss Shang noticed his bewildered look and hurriedly stepped forward. “Master Ding, congratulations for awakening a superior level one celestial gene. You even managed to obtain a celestial blessing! Even City Lord Ling is here! Quickly go and greet him.”
Ding Hao hurriedly stood up to pay his respects. He was a celestial seed, so he did not need to kneel. He only had to bow.
However, Ling Yunxiao did not even give him the chance to bow. He stopped him and loudly said, “I couldn’t possibly let a superior level one celestial gene bow to me. That would be above my station! From now on, you and I are of equal standing. You need not pay your respects!”
Everyone was shocked at City Lord Ling declaring Ding Hao to be of equal status to him. However, the world of Jiuzhou places great importance on celestial genes. With Ding Hao’s extraordinary one, it was not that strange. With his potential, he would definitely be a major player in the Celestial Cultivation Realm in the future. At that time, Ling Yunxiao would not even be worthy of wiping his shoes!”
Min Qingqiu stepped forward to congratulate him and introduced himself. “Ding Hao, this is my father Min Zhengyuan.”
Ding Hao was surprised and hurriedly asked, “Is it Min Zhengyuan, the author of “The Doctrines of Awakening”? I had no idea you are Qingqiu’s father. Please accept my thanks!”
That book by Min Zhengyuan was what Ding Hao used to instruct himself, so he was extremely thankful.
Min Zhengyuan smiled and said, “You don’t have to thank me. In the end, what was important was your own aptitude. You awakened to a twenty-meter tall spiritual energy.
You have a superior level one celestial gene and a celestial blessing. Your future is limitless!”
Ding Hao smiled and asked, “What exactly is a celestial blessing?”
Ling Yunxiao said, “A celestial blessing is something given to a few teenagers with special potential. It gives them special protection! As long as you’re within the influence of Heaven’s Will, if someone wants to attack you, Heaven’s Will would help you stop the attack! In other words, as long as you’re within Heaven’s Will, no one can harm you!”
Ding Hao was shocked. He had risen from being a piece of trash looked down on by everyone to a genius protected by the heavens themselves. He felt overwhelmed.
“This… I’m so grateful. I have to offer my prayers to the Dancing Goddess!”
Ding Hoa and the City Lord walked out of the governor’s office along with the rest of the people. They faced the jade statue in the public square and offered up incense in gratitude.
Looking at how Ding Hao was being treated, Ding Laosi and his wife were panicking. Who could have thought that the Ding Hao that was treated like trash by them could awaken a superior level one celestial gene and even get a celestial blessing. Ding Laosi’s wife could only hatefully spit out, “That trash actually awakened a superior level one. We should have killed him while we could!”
After they finished offering the incense, Ling Yunxiao said, “Master Ding, follow me to my residence. I will register you myself!”
Ding Hao waved his hand and said, “This isn’t an urgent matter. City Lord Ding, you might not know this, but I actually am still in the middle of a court case!”
