Chapter 152 - Heavenly King Domain
Chapter 152: Heavenly King Domain
Su Hao never expected that he would actually meet the legendary principal.
And suddenly… he became the principal’s disciple.
In the principal’s office, Su Hao looked at the old man in front of him.
He wasn’t tall, only about 1.6 meters tall. Wearing a Chinese tunic suit, he stood there, just like an ordinary and kind old man.
But when he took a closer look, he discovered that the old man’s back view was very tall, like a giant.
Such a contrast made Su Hao a little dazed for a moment.
Principal Yang turned around and said, “I just came back from the New World, I didn’t bring anything with me. I’ll give you the few trinkets I picked up on the way.”
He reached into his pocket and felt about. Suddenly, he took out a few items that were emitting light.
A concentrated version of bamboo.
A black stone with flames burning on it.
And a crystal in the shape of a water drop.
They were all the size of a mouse.
Green, red and blue balls of light floated above the old man’s palm.
It was clearly emitting a dazzling light, but the light seemed to be restricted by some force, only extending 20 to 30 centimeters.
“It’s… Heart of Attributes!”
Moreover, judging from the richness of the light, the energy contained in the three Hearts of Attributes in front of him was… even more than the one that the little rascal had absorbed in the past!
Seeing that Su Hao didn’t move for a long time, the old man scolded him jokingly, “Just take it if I tell you to. It’s not something precious, I just picked it up casually.”
He looked at Reverie Butterfly and the other sprites, showing a kind smile. “Come, come, absorb the ones I just picked up while they are still fresh.”
“Gurgle?”
“Go, go.”
The old man… Ah, no, the teacher had already said so. If Su Hao delayed any further, it would seem a little hypocritical.
Of course he wanted it.
The three sprites were even hungrier for it.
Even for Reverie Butterfly that had absorbed the Heart of Attributes before, absorbing another one would be greatly beneficial.
Research showed that the efficiency of the Heart of Attributes absorption was highest during the first three times, and it would be more disadvantageous later on.
Three Hearts of Attributes flew out of the old man’s palm and were carefully caught by Reverie Butterfly and the others.
They brought it to their mouths and spiritual force resonated.
The Heart of Attributes the size of a mouse seemed to have turned into a ball of liquid, dissolving the moment it entered their mouth.
Soft light enveloped them.
“I don’t have much time in school,” the old man said. “If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask your Senior Wu. Although his standards are limited, it’s basically enough to solve your problems.”
Heavenly King Wu :”…”
Teacher, teacher, can you leave me some face in front of the little junior?
I’m a Heavenly King after all. Even if there are specializations that don’t match, answering some elite-level questions is still easy.
But he didn’t dare to say it, and could only nod obediently.
The old man then said, “When you become a master-level Sprite Trainer… Little Wu, bring Little Su to the New World to look for me.”
Heavenly King Wu continued nodding.
Without saying much, the old man left.
With a push of his palm, he flipped over and leaped down out of the open window of the principal’s office, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Su Hao was rendered speechless.
This teacher is indeed… unconventional.
…
After the principal left, Heavenly King Wu became solemn and serious again, as if he had transformed back to that pretentious Heavenly King.
He coughed dryly. “Junior Su, since Teacher entrusted the task to me, I will train you with the strictest requirements so that you can enter the master-level as soon as possible.”
He paused.
“Of course, as Teacher’s disciple, master-level is not enough. You have to set Heavenly King-level as your goal and look further into the future, but you can’t be proud… Becoming Teacher’s disciple only gives you better room for development. How much you can really achieve depends on yourself.”
“I understand, Senior… Wu.”
Su Hao wasn’t used to it.
Fortunately, Heavenly King Wu didn’t have any imposing attitude in front of the principal or teachers. This made him feel like he was much closer to his age.
Oh right, have I seen Senior Wu somewhere before?
“Good that you understand.”
Heavenly King Wu nodded in satisfaction. As expected of the student he took a fancy to… Even if he became a junior, this attitude of being able to abstain from arrogance and impatience was the rarest.
Countless geniuses became complacent, lost, and gradually faded into the crowd after achieving a little.
He continued, “In the path of Sprite Trainers, only when one reaches the Heavenly King-level can they be considered to have high-level battle power. A monarch-level sprite can crush many extraordinary ones. If it’s supported by a Sprite Trainer, it’s even easier.”
“Supported?”
“That’s right,” he said. “Heavenly King-level Sprite Trainers are fundamentally different from the previous levels… Have you heard of a term called ‘Heavenly King Domain’?”
Su Hao shook his head cooperatively.
Although he had indeed never heard of it.
Heavenly King Wu was very satisfied.
He didn’t understand. Only when he didn’t understand would his value be shown.
It was time to showcase his deep knowledge as a Heavenly King senior!
“The so-called Heavenly King Domain refers specifically to a certain ability possessed by a Heavenly King. For example, my Domain is wood. More specifically, it’s the growth of wood-element.”
“Watch carefully.”
As Heavenly King Wu spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at a pot of plants in the office.
No emerald green light emerged from his hand, but the green plants in the pot suddenly grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. In a short while, the whole green plant grew two to three times larger, its leaves lush.
The whole potted plant looked a little unbalanced in its tiny pot.
It was bigger above and smaller below.
A gust of wind blew over. The potted plant swayed and fell down with a thud.
Heavenly King Wu :”…”
It was all an accident.
He called the Trading Puppet to organise it and continued,
“The main function of the Heavenly King Domain is not the little bit of ability shown on the outside, but to support sprites.”
“For example, if I had a pseudo monarch rank wood-element sprite, under the support of my domain, it would have the power to fight a real monarch rank… if I had a monarch rank sprite, the effect would be even greater.”
“Not only that, the Heavenly King Domain can also help sprites break through.”
“For many at the Master-level, his trump card may have been stuck at the pseudo monarch level for ten to twenty years, but after he becomes a Heavenly King, he can perhaps be able to nurture his second main force to the Heavenly King level in two to three years… Of course, only when the domain is compatible.”
“This is the power of Sprite Trainers.”
Su Hao understood.
These were secrets.
He understood now why so many Heavenly King-tier main forces were of the same element.
And why was it that even though it was clearly very difficult for sprites to break through to the monarch rank, many veteran Heavenly Kings had a monarch rank team that could team up to fight.
Su Hao asked some more questions.
For example, why most Heavenly Kings used certain attributes as their domain.
“That’s a good question.”
Heavenly King Wu swept his hair and said, “Using attributes as a domain is the most direct and also the most helpful choice for sprites to break through.”
“My Wood-element, Heavenly King of the Vast Ocean’s Water-element, Heavenly King of the Wind’s Wind-element, and so on.”
“But there are also domains that don’t use attributes.
“For example, Muscle… Heavenly King Bu. His title is ‘Martial Arts’. He’s good at physical fighting, and has his own unique views on training sprites’ physiques… His Heavenly King Domain is in close-quarter combat. Sprites must be proficient in close-quarter combat, and physical fighting in order to break through with the help of his Domain.”
“Another example is Heavenly King Yan. She looks like a ghost-element Heavenly King, but she isn’t… She focuses on poison, illusion poison, fire poison, wood poison, and so on.
“The style and direction of a Heavenly King Domain depends on your first sprite to break through to monarch rank.”
“You have to work hard towards Heavenly King-level, so you can also start to consider which field will be your direction.”
“Of course, Heavenly King-level isn’t limited to just one domain, but those are too far away to consider now.”
