Bai Ze immediately nodded as soon as Teacher Fang Yu finished speaking.

He mobilized the energy in his body to cast the spell.

In the next second, a white pillar immediately materialized in the air between the two.

And in a breath’s time, it continued to expand and change shape before finally condensing into an icicle about a meter long!

The icicle was extremely solid, and its sharpness was terrifying. The cold air even froze the pages of the book on the table mid-air, and the trophy on the side looked like an ice sculpture!

Gasp!

Fang Yu was shocked when she saw how easily Bai Ze conjured up an icicle that was more than a meter long.

She stared at the icicle suspended in the air. For a moment, she thought this was a rule of A-class and above.

“You… How is this Beginner’s level? This is clearly Fluent… No! It’s Familiar!”

Teacher Fang Yu was so surprised that her words were somewhat incoherent. In her opinion, Bai Ze was only a student with some talent. How could he have mastered the Icicle Technique in one day and shot all the way to reach the Familiar level from the Beginner’s level? It was simply unbelievable!

Bai Ze was happy to see his teacher’s surprised look, but he didn’t forget the purpose of this trip. He immediately asked, “Ms. Fang, can I learn the inheritance rules now?”

In the office, Teacher Fang Yu composed herself and said with certainty, “Sure, I’ll take you to the Manuscript Library now.”

Bai Ze nodded and followed Teacher Fang Yu like an obedient student. He kept his head low and did not talk anymore.

Seeing this, Teacher Fang Yu couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. This student, Bai Ze, had concealed himself too deeply. He had such a high level of comprehension. It was really astonishing that he could leapfrog from the Beginner’s and Fluent levels to hit the Familiar level within one day.

Although it was only a D-class rule, there was no one else in the entire school campus who could comprehend it so quickly.

The two of them walked in a single file, passing through several teaching blocks. Before long, they had reached the Manuscript Library.

Looking at the massive building in front of him, Bai Ze could not help feeling awed.

The Manuscript Library had three floors and covered an area of at least 1,000 square meters. It was too modest to call it a Manuscript Library, and it was no exaggeration to call it a Manuscript Complex.

The Manuscript Library was a building larger than the cafeteria, but because it was one of the most important areas in the school, the security here was very strict.

Not only were there mages guarding the area, one could only enter with a jade token.

Only teachers could possess this kind of thing, and in extremely limited quantity.

This Manuscript Complex was surrounded by a forest on three sides and was futher surrounded by high masonry walls. The moment he entered the courtyard with the high walls, Bai Ze could already feel more than a dozen eyes on him.

Teacher Fang Yu led the way in front while Bai Ze followed silently behind, looking around curiously.

It was the first time he had come here in his three years of high school. He had no idea what it was like inside the Manuscript Complex until now.

When he arrived at the Manuscript Complex, a few middle-aged men were standing at the entrance with magic staves in their hands.

Their eyes were exceedingly sharp, and the temples on their heads were full. It was obvious that they were mages of at least the fourth ring and above.

Standing in front of the mages was an old man in cotton clothes.

The old man’s face was full of wrinkles, but he was in good spirits.

He had a thick beard, and his body was slightly hunched, but the expression in his eyes was very gentle when he looked at Bai Ze. He was just like an ordinary old man.

“Good Morning, Professor Gao.”

Teacher Fang Yu immediately walked forward and bowed respectfully to the old man.

The old man called Professor Gao immediately waved his hand and said with a smile, “Little Fang, the student you brought today is a little unfamiliar to me. He hasn’t been here before, right?”

Professor Gao’s voice was as gentle as a breeze.

Bai Ze blinked, unable to detect the existence of magic power in the old man’s body in front of him.

“Professor Gao, this student’s name is Bai Ze. He’s from my class. Today is his first time coming to the Manuscript Library. Please give him your support.”

Fang Yu replied in a respectful tone.

Seeing this, Bai Ze roughly understood that the old man in front of him must have condensed at least six magic rings to be able to command such respect from Teacher Fang Yu!

Professor Gao retracted his gaze and nodded in satisfaction.

“I’m just a gatekeeper. I only follow the rules. ”

On hearing this, Teacher Fang Yu immediately took out a smooth jade token from her pocket.

When Bai Ze saw the jade token, he immediately remembered the thing he had gotten from Zhang Xian and hurriedly handed it over.

“Professor, I have another one here.”

Bai Ze didn’t think so much and blurted out directly.

Fang Yu was caught off guard totally. These jade tokens were extremely rare, and their value was also very high. She did not know through what means Bai Ze had used to actually obtain one. For a moment, she was at a loss to know what to say.

“Sure. I have always followed the rules here to conduct my affairs. You have two jade tokens, so you can inherit two types of rules.”

After saying that, Professor Gao immediately activated his magic power to disable the array formation guarding the entrance of the Manuscript Library.

Bai Ze cupped his hands in thanks and entered the Manuscript Library with his teacher.

After passing through the door, Bai Ze was mesmerized by the scene inside the library.

The Manuscript Library was extremely spacious and was filled with all sorts of bookshelves. These bookshelves seemed to be operated by some mechanism and could turn in all directions like a Rubik’s Cube.

The books above his head would reach the level near his knees on the wall in less than an hour.

Inside the bookshelves and cabinets were all kinds of parchment scrolls, each of which was sealed with a thin thread. There were also wooden tables and chairs, as well as quill pens and black ink in the corner.

The entire process of inheritance was to copy down the spells and memorize them in one’s mind, after which the inheritance was considered completed.

However, obtaining the inheritance did not mean one could use it immediately.

Usually, it would take a few days or even a few years to reach the Beginner’s level.

The length of this period usually depended on the individual’s talent and degree of compatibility.

Moreover, the magic books in the Manuscript Library had an inheritance limit. Once a parchment scroll was read the maximum number of times, it would self-destroy due to the loss of magic power.

Looking at the books rolling along the walls and even on the ceiling, Bai Ze fell into deep thought.

There were two types of rules that he needed the most now. One was defensive magic. In actual combat, defensive and offensive magic were the most important.

He had already learned the Icicle Technique, so he had a greater need for the defensive type.

The second was a speed-type spell, which was more compatible with the current Icicle Technique.

After making a decision, Bai Ze immediately came to the rolling bookcase and began to observe.

Parchment scrolls of different sizes flew past him.

Most of them were E to D-class, and very few were C-class.

“Rain of Fire Method”, “Lightning Bolt Attack”, “Coiling Dragon Curse”, and other books appeared consecutively in front of him.

There was the bursting flames spell, which could deal a tremendous amount of damage instantly, but it consumed too much magic power and could not be controlled at will after the fireball was unleashed, which Bai Ze felt dissatisfied with.

There were also spell techniques that could control vines to bind enemies, as well as all sorts of rules that could slow down and knock them back.

However, those were not suitable for Bai Ze at the moment. On the contrary, highly powerful defensive spells were more suitable for his combat style. Of course, he could not fall behind in agility either. It would be even better if he could find a higher-level speed-type rule.

Bai Ze looked at the scrolls for a few minutes, and finally, his eyes fell on an ancient parchment scroll inscribed with the words “Ice Crystal Armor.”

Ice Crystal Armor: C-class. It uses magic power to form an Ice Armor. It can withstand two C-class attacks of the same level of proficiency. Its attribute is antithetical to fire.

After reading the explanatory text before him, Bai Ze took out the parchment scroll without hesitation.

The Ice Crystal Armor was also of the ice attribute and was compatible with the icicle’s attribute, making it very beneficial in battle!

Moreover, the strength was not weak, which was very much in line with Bai Ze’s inner expectations.

Soon, he found a second speed-type rule that met his requirements.

The rule was called Storm Thunder Flash. It was C-class. It could increase speed by 400% for a short time of one second.

It didn’t consume much magic power. What caught Bai Ze’s eye was that the cooldown period of this rule was only five seconds. In other words, once he learned it, Bai Ze could use it twice in six seconds, which improved his agility significantly!

After locating these two powerful rules, Bai Ze returned with satisfaction.

However, when Bai Ze went to Teacher Fang Yu to register, Teacher Fang Yu was astounded.
