Myriad Realms Gatekeeper

```

Nine Infants silently observed for a while, but then it couldn't restrain itself any longer.

It took a deep breath—

Nine mouths simultaneously sprayed columns of fire toward Shen Ye, sweeping across the water's surface.

"I can't dodge this."

The giant Skeleton exclaimed.

Shen Ye hurled Mu Tou with all his might.

In an instant,

Nine fire columns chased after Mu Tou to the other side of the hall.

"Quick! Row faster!"

Shen Ye urged.

The Skeleton Turtle King paddled furiously, finally gaining speed.

Who knew at this moment, one of Nine Infants' nine heads broke free from the diversion of Mu Tou, suddenly turning towards Shen Ye.

It inhaled deeply and spewed a fierce flame towards him.

Shen Ye saw that things were going south, took two running steps on the Turtle King's shell, leaped into the air, and delivered a reverse flying kick—

Frost Bite!

He kicked the fire column away, changing its direction, and it dissipated into countless vapors in mid-air.

"Your kick has the power of frost, which is exactly the nemesis of its flame—pity it's not enough yet, if your skills were raised a few more levels, you might have extinguished its fire directly."

The Skeleton Turtle King said.

"I can't help it; I've only learned this move a couple of days ago." Shen Ye said.

He looked down at his shoes.

His sneakers were burned away, revealing bare feet.

—Fortunately, the feet were still there.

Seizing the moment, the Skeleton Turtle King paddled hard, speeding up, and the door was not far away.

"Come on! Victory is in sight!" Shen Ye said.

"No... damn it, don't look at me, look at the enemy!" The Skeleton Turtle King groaned.

Shen Ye instinctively looked back, only to see that all nine of Nine Infants' heads were staring at him.

They were taking deep breaths.

Based on his previous experience, Shen Ye roughly estimated that he wouldn't make it through the door in time.

Nine fire columns would arrive early and burn both him and the Turtle King to ashes.

"Skeleton King—speed up!"

Shen Ye shouted.

"This is as fast as I can go; I'm already at full strength!" The Skeleton Turtle King reminded him as he paddled desperately.

"It's okay, leave it to me to deal with it in a bit." Shen Ye said.

At that moment, he stopped watching Nine Infants and looked towards the boiling waves instead.

That piece of wood—

He had finally found it with great difficulty; could it still help in a moment?

If it couldn't, at the very least he had to take it with him as he fled.

"Hey! If you run out of strength, don't block for me anymore, come back, I'll take you with me to escape!"

He shouted loudly.

Suddenly, Nine Infants let out a fierce roar.

The intense firelight illuminated the entire hall.

—Clearly, Nine Infants could understand human speech, and hearing this youngster dare to talk about escaping in its presence, it immediately gathered a stronger fire element to itself.

It was about to breathe fire!

Shen Ye added all his Attribute Points into Agility.

—20.1 Agility!

To get into a key high school after middle school, the requirement is 1-3 points.

This value had already completely surpassed that of middle school level and was beyond the reach of many Professionals!

"Let's go!"

Shen Ye shouted, picking up speed on the Turtle King's shell—faster and faster—

Nine fire columns surged over from the depths of the hall.

He leapt high, jumping off the Turtle King's shell, and loudly said:

"Come!"

The Skeleton Turtle King trembled and transformed back into a Skull Head, retreating into the Ring.

Shen Ye leaped seven or eight meters, kicked once on the boiling water's surface—

Frost Bite!

The water's surface instantly formed a block of floating ice.

Using the force from the ice, his figure scattered into seven or eight flowing water-like shadows, spreading around across the reflection of the water.

The scene was akin to moonlight scattered over the surface of water.

—He had taken the Flowing Moon Movement Technique to the extreme!

Among those seven or eight figures, only one was real—

Shen Ye spun a few circles in mid-air and kicked off the water's surface again, flying forward.

"Fire! The fire is coming! Watch out!"

The giant Skeleton's panicked voice echoed in his ears.

Shen Ye, leaping in mid-air, kicked at the nine fire columns with his feet exuding frigid cold, striking repeatedly in a spinning kick.

Ice and fire scattered, vapors billowed.

He exerted all his strength, deploying Frost Bite with lightning-fast kicks, quickly dispersing four fire columns—

Five remained!

There was no way to deal with them!

"We're going to die!" The giant Skeleton suddenly calmed down, speaking in a contemplative tone.

As the fire column reached them—

Shen Ye suddenly bellowed:

"Do you want to die? I certainly don't!"

He thrust his hand out into the void, abruptly opening a door.

The shockwave from the fire column blew him away, but three fire columns surged into the door.

The remaining two swept towards him.

Shen Ye's feet had no leverage, so he gathered all his strength and thrust out a palm.

Thunder Shock Palm.

Boom!

Thunder and fire collided, erupting in a deafening noise of destruction.

Using the force from the collision, Shen Ye's feet touched lightly on the water, and he kicked out once more.

Frost Bite!

The last fire column was kicked into a thousand frosty swirls and myriad red glows.

He had neutralized the nine fire columns!

Thud.

Shen Ye landed in front of the door marked with cloud patterns.

Nine Infants was furious.

Inside its nine mouths, it started chanting Spells swiftly.

```

Shadowy forms, both tangible and intangible, began to converge around it.

"Is it a powerful move?"

"Too bad I won't be keeping you company."

Shen Ye smiled slightly.

In the boiling floodwater, a shadow emerged and tumbled to his feet.

Mu Tou!

Shen Ye embraced Mu Tou, pushed open the door, and jumped in.

Nine Infants stopped the spell and looked at Shen Ye.

It heard only an "aiyo, what the hell?" and the boy had disappeared.

The door slowly closed.

On the other side of the door—

Shen Ye was falling rapidly.

Splash!

He landed in the raging currents, then surfaced and looked ahead.

Ahead.

Above the current was a log bridge.

The bridge was hundreds of meters long, with a turbulent underground river below and the occasional ferocious monster rearing its head.

The entire bridge was one long tree, of an unknown variety that could grow to such lengths.

Two people stood on the bridge.

A youthful girl radiated a gloomy, somber aura.

A wooden boy, his hands entwined with countless fine steel wires like threads, stood bowing behind the girl.

Zhao Yibing!

The Skinner!

In the end, they had come looking for him!

Shen Ye knew he couldn't hide, so with a flash of his physique, he leaped onto the log bridge.

Only then did Zhao Yibing reveal a smile.

"Originally, if you had died, I would have gone to collect your body, drawn away that power from you, and everything would have ended simply."

"And yet you're still alive?"

She scrutinized Shen Ye closely.

"Did you cause this mess?" Shen Ye asked.

"No," Zhao Yibing said.

Shen Ye was taken aback.

Zhao Yibing's eyes held a profound depth as she spoke softly, "As a human, you underestimate the evil in your kind."

"Is it really not you?" Shen Ye asked.

Zhao Yibing seemed somewhat amused and continued slowly:

"Although I am a lofty deity with infinite might, even I hold my breath and pause in the face of your human malevolence, marveling at your deeds, feeling inferior in comparison."

Shen Ye had an inkling, pulled out a card, and looked at it.

A line of small text appeared on the card:

"You have entered the True Law Realm sanctuary, you are currently in team mode, your teammates will be teleported here within ten seconds."

Shen Ye suddenly shouted, "Disband! Disband the team!"

Another line of text emerged:

"Your team has disbanded, you will face the current True Law Realm sanctuary alone."

On the log bridge, Zhao Yibing's voice was heard again:

"But then again, you humans, oh, you have high highs and low lows."

...

Xiao Mengyu looked at the monster in the great hall.

The monster was seven or eight zhang long, with three human heads and a serpentine body, ceaselessly chasing after her.

Though it looked terrifying, its movements were not very agile, and it even paused while spewing fireballs and water.

So as long as she seized the opportunity—

Xiao Mengyu suddenly turned around, and her long sword pierced through the serpent monster's body, chopping off all three of its heads.

The monster was dead.

...Seemingly not too difficult.

Xiao Mengyu sheathed her sword and approached the small door at the end of the great hall, pushing it open.

The moment the door opened, the entire great hall suddenly vanished without a trace.

Resounding applause filled the surroundings.

Xiao Mengyu was stunned.

In that moment, she found herself standing in an auditorium.

Around her were the waiting elders from the great families, directors and executives from various institutions, and the reporters.

Flashlights were relentless.

The proctors from the Three Great High Schools sat on the platform, smiling at her.

"Well done, Xiao Mengyu, you are this year's first place!" someone said loudly.

Xiao Mengyu paused for only a moment before speaking up, "Honored elders, I have something to report."

"What is it?"

The Azure Academy proctor on the platform asked.

"There seems to be a change in the examination venue; it even allows students to kill each other!" Xiao Mengyu said.

"The Azure Law Realm occasionally escapes our control and generates some special rules on its own; no one can change it," the proctor said.

Xiao Mengyu said, "But what about the others—"

"No need to say more, being alive in this world is not easy for humans. If the Azure Law Realm deems a battle necessary, then the rules of combat will change," the proctor said.

Xiao Mengyu fell silent.

In her pocket, the Newcomer Card vibrated slightly.

New messages?

Xiao Mengyu pulled out the card and was about to look at it when she found it slipping from her grasp and flying up to the platform.

"Ah—"

She instinctively called out and looked up at the three proctors on the stage.

The Azure Examiner lightly touched the card.

Lines of pale blue appeared on the card."You're now part of Azure High School, Xiao Mengyu."

"From now on, you are a freshman at Azure Academy—your card will gain many functions from Azure High School—your examination is completely over," he said.

The card flew back and landed in Xiao Mengyu's hand.

Holding the card, Xiao Mengyu felt a momentary connection and realized that her double attribute bonus had indeed disappeared.

...Alright then.

She had finished the examination as the first place.

But what about him?

In what place will he come out?
