Warm, transcendent light filled every corner of the Ink-Sea Library as the two Half-Step Rank 10 breakthrough pillars converged around seventeen-year-old Ye Xiao and thirteen-year-old Su Nuannuan.
Within the ivory-gold pillar on the left, Ye Xiao stood tall and composed, his silver-rimmed spectacles reflecting the birth of an immortal scholarly constellation. His [Homework-First Bamboo Ruler Sword] and [The Sovereign Teacher’s Red Correction Pen] hummed in harmony with the foundational laws of the cosmos. Elevating his cultivation smoothly across the threshold from Rank 9 Peak into Half-Step Rank 10: Cosmic Benevolent Scholar & Order Guardian!
Within the pink-emerald pillar on the right, thirteen-year-old Su Nuannuan spun in a happy little circle, her twin braids floating in the warm breeze as spiritual peach blossoms, honeybees. Glowing candy-stars bloomed across the bookshelves behind her. Every breath she took radiated pure life force capable of reviving withered worlds, cementing her realm at Half-Step Rank 10: Cosmic Benevolent Healer & Sweetness Guardian!
As the twin halos settled into warm golden rings behind their shoulders, fifteen-year-old Gu Nian, fourteen-year-old Jiang Tuntun, and eleven-year-old Little Fifth immediately crowded around their brother and sister with loud cheers!
“Whoa! Third Brother’s ruler has star-lines on it now!” Little Fifth marvelled, poking the tip of Ye Xiao’s bamboo blade with one finger.
