The drizzle continued.

Few students walked on the big square before the library of East Ocean University.

At the entrance of the hall of the library hung a Tang-Dynasty poem calligraphic work mounted with gold threads. It was the work that Hao Ren had done yesterday.

The 20 characters were elegant and full of strength, looking excellent in the distance and at close range.

Walking in from both sides of this piece of work, visitors found many more calligraphic works on the walls of the library.

There were hundreds of pieces of works being displayed in the warm library!

It looked like a forest of calligraphic works!

Wang Xizhi’s Preface of the Orchid Pavilion, Yan Zhenqing’s Praise to Ji Mingwen, Su Shi’s Script on Hanshi Festival in Huangzhou… All the works mimicking the great calligraphers’ famous pieces were so well done that they resembled the original scripts!

As to the creative pieces, they were more note-worthy with different styles!

In the ‘forest of calligraphic works’, Hao Ren handed items to the members of the Calligraphy Club.

These items were taken from the Dragon God Shrine according to the list approved by Yue Zilong. Now that all the members of the Calligraphy Club were gathered in the library, Hao Ren took the opportunity to hand the items to them according to the list.

Since the elixir pills, dharma treasures, and cultivation techniques from the Dragon God Shrine were better than those outside, the club members were happy to get the items that they wanted.

They were excited beyond words that they could get things from the Dragon God Shrine even though they were not inspectors.

Helping Hao Ren hand out the items, Lu Qi glanced at Hao Ren in astonishment, almost not believing his own spiritual senses.

Only after a weekend, Hao Ren had reached top-tier Dui-level!

Undoubtedly, he was the most powerful young cultivator in East Ocean University!

The club members who were getting items from Hao Ren and Lu Qi were also amazed by the realm that Hao Ren released.

Hao Ren’s crazy cultivation speed convinced them!

“Did you know that Brother Hao has become a level 4 inspector?”

“Level 4 inspector!”

“My second uncle is an official inspector of the Dragon God Shrine, and he told me that Hao Ren is now a level 4 inspector.”

“That’s awesome…”

The cultivators who had gotten their stuff gathered in groups and talked amongst themselves.

They came from different dragon clans, and some of them had relatives in the Dragon God Shrine. That was why the news about Hao Ren becoming a level 4 cultivator had begun to circulate within half a day.

Although Hao Ren didn’t reveal his level 4 inspector token, the club members got the news from different dragon clans.

Only joining the Dragon God Shrine this year, Hao Ren had become a level 3 inspector directly after the general exams and became a level 4 inspector after a few months. The speed of his promotion was unprecedented!

Level 4 inspectors could have direct contact with the deputy shrine masters. As the high-level representatives of the Dragon God Shrine, they were greeted by dragon kings with respect everywhere.

The club members were secretly elated with Hao Ren’s advancement in strength and position since it proved that they were following the right person in East Ocean City even though they were not valued in their own respective dragon clans!

“Brother Hao, I want to introduce someone to you.” After helping Hao Ren hand out the items, Lu Qi said to Hao Ren while putting away the name list.

“Oh?” Hao Ren looked at him.

“He’s Chen Su, the Royal Prince of Taibai Mountain, a fire-elemental dragon clan. He’s a good friend of mine and has transferred to East Ocean University today. I told you about him,” Lu Qi said.

Hao Ren nodded since he remembered Lu Qi mentioning it to him before. Now that the East Ocean Dragon Clan was on the rise, and the rivaling West Ocean Dragon Clan had been struck down, the different dragon clans were trying to be on friendly terms with them, and sending their descendants to study in East Ocean City was one way to get close to the East Ocean Dragon Clan.

However, the dragon clans usually sent their younger generations to East Ocean City and rarely sent their precious Royal Princes.

However, the Royal Prince of Taibai Mountain was trying to get close to Hao Ren by coming to study at East Ocean University.

“Lu Qi!”

While Lu Qi and Hao Ren were talking, a cheerful voice sounded from the gate of the library.

Hao Ren turned his head and saw a clean-looking young man in sporty clothes putting away an umbrella and walking inside.

With a long case in his arms, he walked to the side of Lu Qi and looked at Hao Ren with joy on his face.

“Here you are.” With a smile, Lu Qi pulled him toward Hao Ren and said, “This is our club president, Hao Ren. You may call him Brother Hao as I do.”

Lu Qi turned to Hao Ren and said, “This is Chen Su, the Royal Prince of Taibai Mountain.”

Hao Ren looked at Chen Su. Before he could speak, Chen Su greeted him with warmth, “Brother Hao!”

“Hi.” Hao Ren was feeling a bit awkward, but he felt like Chen Su was a simple guy, much better than the arrogant Zeng Yitao of the West Ocean Dragon Clan.

Taibai Mountain was a small dragon clan in a remote place. Since Lu Qi was a fire-elemental dragon, he and Chen Su knew each other and were good friends.

The more remote a dragon clan was, the more power the local dragon clans had. The Taibai Mountain Dragon King had placed great trust in the East Ocean Dragon Clan by sending his son to study in East Ocean City.

While Hao Ren was talking with the Royal Prince of Taibai Mountain, Zhao Guang walked into the library with a mid-aged man.

Spotting Hao Ren in the center of the hall, Zhao Guang pulled the mid-aged man toward Hao Ren and said, “Hahaha! You young men are already talking.”

Pointing at Hao Ren, Zhao Guang introduced, “Brother Chen, this is Hao Ren, the Fuma of East Ocean.”

The mid-aged man looked at Hao Ren with appreciation and said, “Indeed a great young man!”

Then, he turned to look at Zhao Guang and said, “Brother Zhao, you’ve got a good fuma!”

Hearing their words, Hao Ren knew that this man must be the Taibai Mountain Dragon King. Obviously, he had come in person to bring his beloved son to study in East Ocean City.

“Uncle!” Hao Ren greeted him politely.

“Well! Well…” The mid-aged man waved his hand with a smile. Then, he turned to Chen Su with a serious expression and said, “Su, when you are studying in the city, you must behave yourself. Be friendly with your peers in the school and learn from General Hao.”

“I got it, Dad!” Chen Su answered with a smile.

Seeing the young men getting along well with each other, Zhao Guang and the Taibai Mountain Dragon Palace smiled.

“Brother Hao, this is my calligraphic work. I hope you like it.” Chen Su pulled out a scroll from the long case and spread it out; it was an elegant calligraphic work.

The writing looked smooth and graceful, showing the excellent skills of Chen Su, the future Taibai Mountain Dragon King.

Lu Qi summoned two club members and asked them to hang up Chen Su’s calligraphic work.

By bring his writing to the event of the Calligraphy Club, Chen Su showed his intention of joining Hao Ren’s club.

All the dragon cultivators including Xu Ke were members of Hao Ren’s Calligraphy Club.

“Lu Qi, deliver the message to each member: they can invite their elders to visit the show,” Hao Ren whispered to Lu Qi.

“Ok!” Lu Qi nodded immediately and ran over to find the other vice presidents.

Chen Su scratched his head with a smile and said, “Brother Hao, I’ll go and check out the writings of other club members.”

It was his first day in East Ocean University, and he was eager to talk to other young cultivators. Situated in a remote place, the Taibai Mountain Dragon Clan didn’t have a lot of cultivators and fewer young ones.

Seeing over 500 young cultivators from different dragon clans in the library, Chen Su was excited.

The Taibai Mountain Dragon King smiled when he saw this, and he thought, “After all, young people must explore the world by themselves.”

Only managing a small dragon clan in a remote place, the Taibai Mountain Dragon King brought Chen Su to East Ocean City but hadn’t expected to meet the East Ocean Dragon King.

Although the dragon kings seemed to enjoy the same prestige, they had different ranks according to their level of forces.

He was touched that Zhao Guang had welcomed him in person and even came with them to East Ocean University. He had heard that the East Ocean Dragon King was kind and generous despite the wealth, and he felt like the words were all true from what he witnessed today!

The Taibai Mountain Dragon King wouldn’t submit to the East Ocean Dragon Clan, but he would lean toward it in the future!

With his humble attitude, Zhao Guang released a message: Despite the great force of East Ocean, it still treated others with respect!

“Does a club event need to occupy the entire great hall of the library? Lu Qing is too lenient with the management of the school clubs!” A slightly scolding voice suddenly came from the main gate of the library.
