Chapter 1114 - Black-White Star Disk

Very soon, An Xinhui and the others stopped talking as they were completely immersed in the story.

“Is it really so nice to read?”

Murong Mingyue casually read one of the papers.

She wasn’t into literature. But as a great teacher, her literary attainment was still pretty high.

After reading it once, she gave the story a very high evaluation.

“The characters are very well written. I like this Qingwen a lot, but if such an impudent maid was placed in Central Plains, she would be beaten to death by her master, right?”

After Murong Mingyue finished speaking, the others hushed in unison.

“Quiet!”

An Xinhui and the others had reproach in their eyes.

There were so many people here, so Sun Mo couldn’t continue to write. “Let’s go, we will first head to the Black-White Star Palace!”

This star palace was a giant pagoda and was a building specially constructed for the Black-White Star Disk.

Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo exchange a mutual glance before following Sun Mo.

Sun Mo had only written ten chapters, a total of 60,000 words. Hence, it only took a short while for An Xinhui and the others to finish reading them.

They felt that it was not enough and they reread it once more.

“It’s a very good read!”

Mei Ziyu sighed in admiration.

Because she had been sickly since she was young and it was impossible for her to cultivate for long periods, she had spent most of her time reading random books. It was different from An Xinhui and Gu Xiuxun who had only read famous books before.

“As long as he can maintain this standard, another extremely popular book will soon emerge in the Nine Provinces.”

Mei Ziyu evaluated.

“Ah? It’s that good?”

Gu Xiuxun was astonished. Being popular in the Nine Provinces and being popular in Jinling were two completely different concepts.

“At the very least, there would be one additional book in the bedrooms of many young women. Also, an additional portion of hope.”

Mei Ziyu smiled. “Let’s go. We have to catch Sun Mo and force him to come back and write more!”

“That’s right, I’m already impatient to read the end.”

Gu Xiuxun agreed.

“Writing novels is ultimately a minor path!” An Xinhui kept the draft properly. “Let’s go. We should witness the Black-White Star Disk!”

Getting Sun Mo to write a book?

That was simply wasting his talent.

…

There was a group of guards guarding the area outside Black-White Star Palace all year round.

As the ultimate treasure of the Black-White Academy, even students of the school who had studied seven years and had graduated might not be able to personally see it.

From this, one could tell how rare and valuable it was to get a chance to tour this chessboard*.

Sun Mo first went to look for Wan Kangcheng to request an order with the seal of the headmaster on it.

“Teacher, this Headmaster Wang seems to have something he wants to talk to you about but is embarrassed to do so.”

Lu Zhiruo reminded him.

“He is an 8-stars great teacher and personally saw how Secondary Saint Zhou advanced into the secondary saint realm after your teacher helped him. What do you think he wants to say?”

Murong Mingyue’s lips twitched. If it wasn’t for the fact that Wan Kangcheng felt a little awkward to put down his pride, the two of them would have been chatting through the night.

Sun Mo hurried to the Black-White Star Palace and observed this building that was painted in both black and white. Just when he wanted to take out the order, Xie Enhui had rushed over.

“Teacher Sun, let me bring you around for a tour!”

Xie Enhui was worried that Sun Mo might misunderstand that she was surveying him. She hurriedly explained, “This chess board has a strange ability. Even now, we have not fully understood it. So, it’s best to be careful or if something bad happens to you, that would be the greatest loss to the Great Teacher World.”

“You guys are not fully clear either?”

Sun Mo was astonished.

“Hehe, this chessboard is something a headmaster of our Black-White Academy excavated from a certain ruin in the Darkness Continent.”

Xie Enhui explained in a low voice.

Actually, such secrets shouldn’t be told to others but who told Sun Mo to be so outstanding?

With Xie Enhui leading the way, Sun Mo naturally could be relaxed. He simply followed after her idly.

After entering the pagoda, their visions dimmed. The space inside was hollow and there was a domed roof. On top of the roof, there were countless gems embedded there, sparkling with light, akin to the galaxy.

“Over here!”

Xie Enhui led everyone to a spiraling stairway as they headed down to the first level in the underground.

After passing through a 30-meter tunnel, they entered a secret chamber.

“This place is really good!”

Sun Mo praised.

The floor, walls, and ceilings were covered with pictures of stars that glowed brightly. Hence, although they were underground, the atmosphere wasn’t oppressively dark. On the contrary, there was an artistic mood or conception here.

If those in a relationship came here to play, their relationship would escalate extremely rapidly.

Bluntly speaking, there were only two words to describe this place.

Extremely romantic!

The heart of a young girl in Murong Mingyue was not as strong as others. At this moment, she stared at the center of the secret chamber. There was a white-colored chess piece as big as a double bed.

There was also a dark galaxy diagram above.

“These are constellations, right?”

Li Ziqi was widely read and very knowledgeable. She was able to identify the diagram above immediately. It was very rare to see something like this other than in books.

“Mn!”

After Xie Enhui nodded, she continued to explain. “Using the Black-White Star Disk is something that consumes a lot of mental strength. Before you can proceed, we have to test your mental strength here. If you are unqualified, I’m sorry, you will be prohibited from using the star disk.”

“What if one still forcefully uses it?”

Murong Mingyue was curious.

“The person will become an idiot!”

Xie Enhui bitterly smiled. “Everyone, don’t feel that I’m lying to you. In a temporary shelter of our Black-White Academy, there are over a hundred teachers and students who have turned into retards.

“These people were stuck in the game and exhausted all their mental energy. They are unable to wake up.”

“Ah? So dangerous?”

Lu Zhiruo was badly frightened and grabbed hold of the front of Sun Mo’s robes.

“As long as we follow the procedure and don’t act recklessly, things will basically be fine.”

Xie Enhui smiled. “Who wants to be first?”

“Allow me!”

Murong Mingyue didn’t want Sun Mo to be the first lab rat. Hence, she could only volunteer herself. “What should I do?”

“Just lie inside and follow your feeling.”

Xie Enhui explained.

“Isn’t this test a little too much like a doctrine? That external reality is a product of consciousness?”

Sun Mo’s lips twitched. After that, he had no way to be distracted anymore because Xie Enhui had stretched out her hand and rapped the chess piece. A creaking sound rang out as white mist sprayed.

Ka! Ka!

The upper part of the chess piece opened and revealed a cabin.

“…”

Sun Mo was dumbfounded. (Is this a gaming cabin?)

(Why does it feel like science-fiction?)

But inside the chess piece, there were no things like wires, microchips, or high-tech stuff. There was just a jelly-like substance.

When one prod it, it would move about in a bouncy manner.

“Originally, according to the rules, one should burn incense and bathe before they undress to enter. But there’s no need for you all to do so.”

Xie Enhui was still very understanding. “Don’t worry. This star liquid has an extremely strong self-purification ability. Also, it is filled with an abundance of spiritual energy.”

“Star fluid?”

Sun Mo was curious.

“We also don’t know what it is supposed to be named. Hence, we casually gave it this name.”

Xie Enhui explained. “Alright, let’s move faster. Remember, if you feel any discomfort or cannot take it anymore, just exert force to push open the chess piece.”

“Mn!”

Murong Mingyue nodded. She then started to remove her shoes and outer attire. Since the other party was so courteous, she couldn’t be thick-skinned.

Sun Mo felt awkward.

(What should I do?)

He definitely couldn’t leave as he had to guard Murong Mingyue to prevent the people from the Black-White Academy from trying something funny. But should he continue to look…?

(Ze, I didn’t expect you are actually a ‘C’ cup?)

Girls from the plains wouldn’t care about this. They wouldn’t even care about doing it in the wild. Very soon, Murong Mingyue who was in her undergarments entered the star fluid in the chess piece.

“Don’t worry, we can breathe normally inside!”

Xie Enhui consoled and patted the chess piece.

Ka! Ka!

The chessboard closed.

“Magical!”

Li Ziqi sighed in admiration.

“Teacher Sun, this is a very good item that contains boundless secrets. If you join our school, you will have the authority to research it whenever you want to.”

Xie Enhui took the chance to recruit him.

“Sister Xie, no matter what, you will always be my friend!”

Sun Mo’s mouth was very sweet.

“Hehe, look at this child. What are you blindly talking about? With my age, I can even be your grandmother!”

Although Xie Enhui said this, she couldn’t help feeling proud.

Such a handsome puppy was addressing her as ‘sister’.

It simply felt too joyful.

(Sigh!)

(I really want to tell him there’s no need for him to work so hard. I will buy all your spirit runes!)

But very soon, Xie Enhui no longer had any time for nonsensical thoughts. The chess piece started shining, and the light was rapidly extending all over. Less than three minutes later, the entire chess piece lit up.

“This…”

Xie Enhui was greatly shocked.

After seeing such an expression on a major character’s face, Sun Mo was badly shocked. “Sister Xie, is there something wrong?”

As he spoke, Sun Mo took out his wooden blade and was preparing to hack the chess piece apart to save Murong Mingyue.

“There’s nothing strange. The testing standard is to see how fast the dark galaxy map lights up.”

Xie Enhui was in a daze and she felt very puzzled. “Where did Great Teacher Murong come from? Why have I never heard of her name before?”

That shouldn’t be the case.

Lighting up the galaxy diagram in three minutes indicated that the person’s mental strength was very strong, and their potential was extremely high. Such a standard would rank in the top ten among the young great teachers of the Black-White Academy.

The name of such a genius should have long since spread far and wide.

“I don’t know either.”

Sun Mo mentally mused that Murong Mingyue was Vice Headmaster Murong’s trump card to seize the Dragon Subduing Academy’s headmaster’s position. Because she dabbled in puppetry since young, her mental strength would surely be exceedingly powerful.

“Oh!”

Xie Enhui understood that Sun Mo must have concealed something, but it wasn’t good for her to continue asking about such matters. “Oh right, Teacher Sun can just call me Teacher Xie, or Aunty Xie will do.”

Being addressed as ‘Sister Xie’ was simply too embarrassing for her.

Boom! Boom!

Xie Enhui rapped the chess piece. “You can come out now!”

A few moments later, the chess piece shot out some white mist. A crackling sound rang out as it opened.

Murong Mingyue then climbed out.

It was very magical.

The jelly-like sticky fluid didn’t stain her body at all. She could leave the cabin very easily.

“Teacher, what did you see?”

LI Ziqi was curious.

“I saw an ocean of stars!”

Murong Mingyue replied.

“Who’s next?”

Xie Enhui turned her gaze onto Sun Mo, wanting to see his potential.

“Me! Me!”

Lu Zhiruo raised her little hand.

Very soon, the papaya girl removed her outer clothing and entered the chess piece.

Bzz!

The chess piece directly lit up and the speed was even quicker compared to Murong Mingyue,

“This…”

Xie Enhui was frightened silly.

(What the hell? Even if I entered, it wouldn’t be so quick!)

“Her constitution is a little special!”

Sun Mo put on a bold face and explained.

(Oh no! An accident! I shouldn’t have let my lucky mascot act so brashly. After all, her body is different from ordinary humans when it comes to breaking through the cultivation levels. She has to absorb a large amount of spirit qi.)

“Understood!”

Xie Enhui didn’t insist. From her point of view, this girl might have eaten a heavenly ingredient or earthly treasure that boosted one’s mental strength.

After the chess piece opened, Lu Zhiruo stood up with a vacant look on her face.

“It ended just like that?”

Lu Zhiruo scratched her hair and felt somewhat regretful. “I was still taking my time to admire those stars!”

“It should be my turn now!”

Li Ziqi’s melon face was somewhat red.

(Aiya! It feels so embarrassing to strip before Teacher.)

The feeling of entering the jelly wasn’t too bad. After that, the chess piece closed.

“Luckily, the chess piece didn’t instantly light up!”

Xie Enhui heaved a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that another absolute genius might appear. She wouldn’t be able to take it.

This wait lasted for seven minutes.

“Congratulations, it’s another genius!”

Xie Enhui felt envious. With this result, Li Ziqi could be ranked at the top of her year.

It was Sun Mo’s turn, but before he entered, a guard came to report that An Xinhui and the others had arrived.

They knew Sun Mo was definitely here. Given his status, the Black-White Academy would surely arrange people to guide the way for him. Hence, they came here directly.

“Invite them to enter!”

Xie Enhui instructed.

“Wow, such a huge chess piece. Why is it alone by itself here?”

Gu Xiuxun asked curiously.

She wasn’t afraid that she and Xie Enhui were not close with each other at all.

After Xie Enhui explained, she urged. “Teacher Sun, don’t wait anymore and just enter!”

“Do you guys want to leave first?”

Sun Mo felt a headache.

The females shifted their eyes away but had no intentions of leaving at all.

“Sun Mo, you are too petty!” Gu Xiuxun’s lips twitched. “You’ve seen my body completely before.”

Swish~

Everyone’s gaze turned over.

“Eh, don’t misunderstand. What I mean was that Sun Mo massaged me before!”

Gu Xiuxun wanted to slap herself. (Why did I have to be so mouthy!?)

Sun Mo could only brace himself to do it.

Xie Enhui’s eyes brightened and involuntarily sighed in admiration. “Ze, Teacher Sun’s figure is really good!”

Although the figures of cultivators wouldn’t be too bad, a body like Sun Mo’s, which was so sculpted and fit, was still pretty rare.

Sun Mo entered the jelly-like substance.

As the chess piece covered him, his vision completely turned dark.

“It feels strange!”

Sun Mo moved his body and it felt like he was soaking in jelly. There was some obstruction, but after that, a buzzing sound rang out as though he got shocked by static electricity, causing his body to shoot forward. After that, the surroundings lit up and it was as though he was in a huge city with a power failure that suddenly regained power.

In an instant, it was like all the homes in the city lit up.

“F***!”

Sun Mo involuntarily spewed vulgarities because the scene he was seeing was simply too beautiful.

In his vision, he saw vast starry skies that stretched endlessly. It was as though he was currently in space.

After Sun Mo glanced at the surroundings, he turned his gaze into the distance as he wanted to know what was at the very end.

Inside the room, Xie Enhui paid attention to the chess piece, wanting to see the speed the diagram lit up. In the end, it did so in the blink of an eye.

It was so fast that she had no time to react.

“So quick?”

Xie Enhui was stunned. After that, intense envy appeared in her gaze.

“Headmaster An, can you let your fiance join our school?”

Xie Enhui’s tone was as sour as a thousand-year-old vinegar. Just when she was preparing to knock the chess piece and let Sun Mo out, an unexpected thing occurred!
