Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

Chapter 149: Chapter 141 Mythical Level Entries!

Dharma Realm.

Zhongzhou City.

This was a city entirely manifested from mana.

In the Ancient Era, its purpose was to allow the gathering of all sorts of Spirits of the Legal Realm for use in large-scale warfare.

As time passed, the wars gradually ceased.

The city, as a Technique, continued to exist within the Dharma Realm, allowing all beings to communicate with the Spirits of the Legal Realm here.

It was the most prosperous Art City.

It was also the Song Family's hallmark.

Today.

The city was becoming even more lively.

——Everyone knew that a joint welcome party for the Three Great High Schools would be held here!

At the same time, the city had another mission tonight——

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Amid a series of sounds, the youths gently landed on the ground.

"Eh?"

Shen Ye looked around.

He had been teleported to a crossroads at this moment.

Beside him, apart from Zhang Xiaoyi, Guo Yunye, and Nangong Sirui, the others were gone.

Today, Guo Yunye and Zhang Xiaoyi were wearing the same armor, looking heroic and spirited, and especially the "Bravery" character on their chests seemed extraordinarily vivid.

Shen Ye, however, was wearing a white shirt, jeans, and sneakers.

Simple and understated.

Shen Ye also felt it might be a bit too casual, after all, he was attending a party.

Xiao Mengyu had said this was fine, to avoid attracting attention from certain people with ulterior motives.

Since it was a party prepared by others, Shen Ye did not say much more and wore it directly.

Nangong Sirui, on the other hand, was different from the three.

He wore a quite ancient-style brocade robe, with a white Jade Crown on his head, and a green precious fan in his hand, fanning himself while looking around with interest as if he were a fine gentleman from a time of turmoil.

"It seems the teleportation was random."

Nangong Sirui said.

Here was a bustling and lively street intersection, with an endless stream of people, as well as various kinds of lanterns, snacks, and shops.

The several of them felt something and took out their cards together.

Four cards had the same words:

"A gathering of heroes to witness this grand event."

"If fate allows, we shall meet."

The group looked at each other.

"What is this?" Guo Yunye asked.

"I recognize the words, but I don't know what they're trying to say," Zhang Xiaoyi said.

"I guess Xiao San should know," Shen Ye said.

"Who is Xiao San?" Guo Yunye and Zhang Xiaoyi asked in unison.

Shen Ye looked towards Nangong Sirui.

"Xiao San?" Nangong Sirui furrowed his good-looking brows, "What does that term mean?"

"Heaven and earth are the greatest, you rank third," Shen Ye bluffed.

Nangong Sirui's brows relaxed, and he waved his fan with an air of ease, humming lightly:

"I'm beginning to understand now—no wonder you were able to become the inheritor of the Huntian Authentic Transmission, just this insight is extraordinary!"

The two exchanged glances and burst out laughing.

"..." Guo Yunye.

"..." Zhang Xiaoyi.

Nangong Sirui stopped laughing and spoke, "Alright, let me tell you the truth, I actually know a little bit, like about the orientation, which was supposed to happen after the official start of school but ended up being brought forward during the training camp."

"It's the same with what's coming next."

"——You all surely don't want to be eliminated and end up attending any random university."

The three nodded together.

"That's right, besides the public classes, high school will also have specialized mentors teaching smaller classes."

"Now, the time has come for the mentors to gather and observe all the students."

"If a mentor takes a liking to you and finds that you have compatible traits, they will issue a task to the student, and if the student does a satisfactory job—"

"Then congratulations, you have yourself a mentor."

"Mentors are our backbone in the school—"

"It's pretty miserable without a mentor, so everyone had better give it their all."

"How strong are the mentors?" Guo Yunye asked.

"At the very least, they have the Law Eye Pupil Technique and can summon Technique Spirits, what do you think?" Nangong Sirui said.

The Dharma Eye combined with Technique Spirits indicates the fourth level of the Dharma Realm.

According to what Officer Wu said, this is the pinnacle of human capabilities.

Guo Yunye suddenly felt something, picked up the card, and read:

"With a large number of students flooding into Zhongzhou City, the public order has quickly deteriorated."

"There's someone harassing a girl at the second intersection ahead of you, can you intervene?"

Without a word, Guo Yunye's physique was already rushing forward.

"Such a strong sense of justice?"

Nangong Sirui shook his head.

"It must be a test," Zhang Xiaoyi speculated.

"Let's check it out!"

The three exchanged glances and followed at an unhurried pace.

By the time they reached the intersection, they saw that Guo Yunye had already persuaded a drunk man to the side.

The two girls who were bothered expressed their gratitude to him before leaving.

——A very ordinary incident.

Shen Ye was about to speak when he suddenly looked up slightly, eyes moving upward, looking above Guo Yunye's head.

Nangong Sirui made the same gesture.

Zhang Xiaoyi asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"

"A dog?" Nangong Sirui hesitated.

"Is that so? Did you see a dog?" Shen Ye asked.

"My Dharma Eye can discern forms—something appeared above his head resembling 'noble', and it looked like a dog, but also a bit like a wolf. What about you?" Nangong Sirui asked.

Shen Ye's gaze focused on the Evaluation Entry hovering above Guo Yunye's head:

"Justice Hound."

"A green rare entry."

"Description: When transformed into a non-human, all attributes +7, and racial restrictions can be ignored when taking on non-human occupations."

——Not all wolves wish to be good dogs."

"Additional explanation:"

"This place is filled with tremendously powerful magical realm force, being at the center of the world's Origin Force, hence your actions are very likely to be awarded corresponding Evaluation Entries, or 'names'."

"——You also have this opportunity."

Shen Ye's spirit lifted as he said, "I saw his 'name' as—"

He suddenly stopped.

Would Guo Yunye be subject to ridicule and bullying if others knew his card read "Justice Hound"? Moreover, this entry also revealed Guo Yunye's abilities.

"I saw the effects of the 'name' on him,"

Shen Ye said.

"What exactly is it?" Nangong Sirui asked.

"It's rather vague; I dare not say it carelessly. Besides, it's his personal privacy; it's not very appropriate to speak of it," Shen Ye replied.

Nangong Sirui also realized and said to Zhang Xiaoyi, "Don't spread what I just mentioned."

"Okay, I thank you guys on his behalf," Zhang Xiaoyi said gratefully.

"I misspoke earlier; this place is not only good for finding mentors but also gives us the chance to obtain a 'name.' Truly a great opportunity," Nangong Sirui reflected.

Shen Ye took out the card.

Stay tuned for updates on m-vl-em,pyr

Xiao Mengyu sent a message: "Has she contacted you?"

"Not yet, I'm with Nangong Sirui and Guo Yunye, working on an assigned task," Shen Ye replied.

"Good, I've also received a specific task; keep in touch with me," Xiao Mengyu said.

Shen Ye put down the card.

Suddenly.

Zhang Xiaoyi exclaimed excitedly, raising his card for everyone to see:

"So you think you can run? Let's see you run around the city."

——This should be easy!

"Folks, the opportunity lies right in front of us. I'll go for the run first," Zack said, eager to try.

"Go ahead! Don't dawdle!" Shen Ye said.

Zack nodded and started to run off.

With his departure, Guo Yunye continued to maintain order in the streets, leaving Shen Ye and Nangong Sirui behind.

"Don't tell me we don't have a chance?" Nangong Sirui looked unconvinced.

The next second.

His card also shook slightly.

A line of small text appeared:

"Feel true affection."

...This is hard. It's just a social event; where can I find true affection?

Soon after, Shen Ye's card shook too.

Another line of small text appeared:

"Delight in helping others."

Shen Ye looked at his own card, then at Nangong Sirui.

"I'll help you," Shen Ye said.

"That works," Nangong Sirui replied.

"Let's add each other as friends first—friendship should count, right?"

"Exactly, I was thinking the same," Nangong Sirui agreed.

They took out their cards and added each other as friends.

Unfortunately, there was no reaction.

The two exchanged looks.

——Seems like it really has to be that specific event to qualify as true affection?

"True affection should be simple, considering how handsome you are," Shen Ye said.

On the street, a few girls walked past, all glancing at Nangong Sirui and then back at Shen Ye.

——The two of them really stood out.

"You're wrong; they're only fond of my appearance. They don't have the time to understand what's inside. How could it be considered true affection?" Nangong Sirui remarked while waving his fan.

Shen Ye gave him a sidelong glance.

——With such high standards, this will be tough.

The two of them decided to continue walking along the road.

It was quite lively and bustling.

As Shen Ye walked, he suddenly tapped Nangong Sirui.

"Hey, those girls playing the zither over there are all looking at you," he commented.

"Really?" Nangong Sirui asked.

The two stopped.

They could see several female zither players occasionally lifting their heads to steal glances at Nangong Sirui, their cheeks flushed red before they quickly bowed their heads back to their playing.

"The one in the red dress played it wrong," Nangong Sirui pointed to one of the girls and said to Shen Ye.

"A mistake in the tune reflects the mind," Shen Ye quipped with a laugh.

Nangong Sirui immediately shook his head, "The mountain calls to the visitor; the visitor has no intention."

"Are you that reluctant to earn a 'name'?" Shen Ye asked with hands on his hips.

"No, it's not that. They're Spirits of the Law Realm, not real people," Nangong Sirui explained in a low voice.

Suddenly, someone approached, looked at Nangong Sirui, then at Shen Ye.

"Handsome, how about buying a bouquet for your girlfriend?" the flower seller said earnestly and encouragingly, lifting a bunch of roses up to Shen Ye.

Girlfriend?

Shen Ye was momentarily taken aback, then quickly turned to look at Nangong Sirui.

This guy really is beautiful.

But he's a guy.

Shen Ye was about to laugh and refuse when a thought struck him.

No, wait!

"How much?"

"One tael of silver."

"Here."

Shen Ye dug out the silver—

It was the money left on the table at his new residence.

"Here you go, Xiao San. These flowers are for you," Shen Ye said.

"Are you out of your mind? Why didn't you tell him I'm a guy?" Nangong Sirui was a bit angry, even flipping his hair for emphasis.

——Looking even more like a girl now.

"Hey, get it straight, we're trying to fulfill the requirements on our cards, understand?" Shen Ye said seriously.

Nangong Sirui pondered for a moment before realizing what was going on.

Right!

He needs to find true affection, and I need to take pleasure in helping others.

He's sincerely helping me—because helping me is what he wanted to do!

So if I accept the flowers, wouldn't I be feeling his "true affection"?

It makes sense!

Nangong Sirui closed his fan, swished the handle, and gave Shen Ye a smile, "That makes some sense. I'll accept the roses with some reluctance and see if it gets me the 'name'."

"I had the same thought," Shen Ye said.

"Come on! Give me the flowers!"

"Here!"

Just then, an unexpected change occurred—

A spatial fluctuation suddenly came from the empty space nearby.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh! Five figures appeared.

——It was a group of girls, apparently from one of the Three Great High Schools, Guixu High School!

The moment they appeared, they witnessed the scene—

Shen Ye, with a smile on his face, handing flowers to Nangong Sirui.

Nangong Sirui, with a beaming face, accepting the roses.

The girls may not be as battle-ready as the two men, but they were unbeatable in capturing such moments.

They took out their phones in unison and snapped away furiously.

At that moment, Shen Ye and Nangong Sirui had no idea of the terrifying consequences that were to follow and just thought the girls were being a bit too nosy.

——After all, it was a critical moment to earn a "name" and gain the favor of a mentor!

What are you guys doing taking photos of us when you should be seizing opportunities?

Nangong Sirui accepted the bouquet and even held it up to his nose, saying,

"I wonder if it'll work."

"It should, I think," Shen Ye said uncertainly.

Suddenly——

Shen Ye's head began to emit a faint gleam.

Both sensed it at the same time and exchanged a smile.

It could actually work!

Alas, the scene of them smiling at each other was captured as well!

Shen Ye, still smiling, looked up to see a new Evaluation Entry appearing above his head:

"The Giver."

"Mythical Level (red), an occasional entry."

"Description: Have you seen someone trying to climb a wall? When they can't get over, they might place a few bricks underneath their feet."

"——In the eyes of some people, others are just tools."

"This entry has the 'Temporary Dissipation' trait and will be destroyed after ten seconds."

"——An occasional destiny-related entry."

"This entry is the result of your 'Gate' ability sensing the special powers of the Law Realm at this location, extracting it from the thousands of years of human history, and presenting it as an evaluation, all to heighten your vigilance."

"——Be careful, or you'll become someone's treat."
