Chapter 1024: Chapter 1018: If One Hammer Can’t Solve It, Then Use Two

Dean Xinghai looked awkward. Previously, he said he would give the Heavenly Dragon Divine Sword to Yang Xiao, but it was just a casual remark, not entirely sincere.

After all, there are only a few three-star divine swords in Witch Star, apart from the three Emperors and the four academies, few have the ability to possess a three-star divine weapon.

However, Dean Xinghai truly appreciates Yang Xiao and holds him in high regard.

Moreover, if it weren’t for Yang Xiao defeating Long Jing this time, he wouldn’t have won the Heavenly Dragon Divine Sword.

Dean Xinghai hesitated for a moment and turned his gaze towards Deng Nan.

"Vice Dean Deng, what do you think?"

Deng Nan chuckled and said:

"Brother Xinghai, you are the dean, this matter is for you to decide, but I do have a word to say,"

"Please go ahead."

"How long has this Flying Leopard Thunder Hammer been lying unused in the Divine Weapon Pavilion?"

"Ah, at least fifty years."

"Exactly, the previous dean passed unexpectedly and didn’t pass on the cultivation technique for the Flying Leopard Thunder Hammer to you, thus this three-star divine weapon became a broken hammer, even less valuable than ordinary magic killing weapons,

Now, Yang Xiao by chance mastered the cultivation technique to activate the Flying Leopard Thunder Hammer. Perhaps it’s destiny!"

Deng Nan’s words made Master Lei and Zhu Peng nod in agreement. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Dean Xinghai, hearing this, instantly made up his mind and laughed heartily,

"Good, Deng is right, it truly is destiny. Now looking back, even Yang Xiao joining our Flying Leopard Academy was destiny. Since heaven wills it, we naturally follow it."

After speaking, Dean Xinghai said to Yang Xiao:

"Yang Xiao, on behalf of Flying Leopard Academy, I’ll pass on this institute divine weapon to you. Originally, only the dean was qualified to wear the Thunder Hammer,

but the situation has changed. As a dean, I don’t possess the cultivation technique to wield the Thunder Hammer. Though you’re not a dean, before accepting this Thunder Hammer, you must promise me one thing."

Dean Xinghai’s expression was very serious.

Yang Xiao looked and nodded:

"Dean, please tell me. As long as I can do it, I will certainly try my best."

"Since the Thunder Hammer is our institute’s symbol and glory, you must never do anything to harm Flying Leopard Academy’s interests after becoming the owner of the Flying Leopard Thunder Hammer."

"I can assure you of that."

"Also, if Flying Leopard Academy encounters any crisis in the future, no matter where you are, you must return with the Thunder Hammer to protect Flying Leopard Academy. Can you do that?"

Yang Xiao nodded and said:

"I’ve been cultivating in Flying Leopard Academy for over half a year and have benefited greatly. Flying Leopard Academy is like an alma mater to me. I will make every effort in this life to protect the academy from external threats."

"Good, from now on, this Flying Leopard Thunder Hammer belongs to you. Take it back, study it well, and familiarize yourself with its features. Just don’t strike yourself with lightning!"

Everyone laughed.

Deng Nan and others looked at Yang Xiao with envy and congratulated him.

Yang Xiao held the Thunder Hammer, unwilling to part with it, filled with joy.

Deng Nan said:

"There is an open valley behind the academy, perhaps you could practice there."

"Thank you for the reminder, Vice Dean Deng."

Yang Xiao bid farewell to Xinghai and the others and flew straight towards the valley behind the academy.

After Yang Xiao left, Deng Nan said to Xinghai:

"Brother Xinghai, Yang Xiao is a rare talent encountered once in a century. Train him well, and perhaps our Flying Leopard Academy could flourish in the future."

"Haha, I don’t expect Yang Xiao to just enhance our Flying Leopard Academy, wouldn’t that be an underutilization of his talent?"

"What do you mean?"

"Yang Xiao is the most potential-filled genius I’ve seen in recent decades, especially his Beast Soul, which can suppress the Heavenly Dragon Beast Soul, proving his exceptional ability.

I actually hope that Yang Xiao might one day achieve great feats, supporting Witch Star against Dwarf Star invaders and Mad Saint Thanos."

"Isn’t that making Yang Xiao seem too grand? He probably doesn’t have that ability yet; he’s currently only in the Empire Level Primary Realm."

Zhu Peng said.

Xinghai chuckled,

"Haha, you must look at the future development. Can you speculate about Yang Xiao ten or twenty years from now?"

Everyone remained silent.

...

The back mountain of Flying Leopard Academy is an ecologically pristine valley, still enveloped in a strong defense light screen in the distance, with no high-level monsters inside, only some small ones.

The academy’s primary department students are all above King Level cultivation, so the valley’s monsters pose no threat to those inside the academy.

To ensure safety, a defense light screen is set at the valley entrance, guarded by two guards.

Occasionally, academy members venture into the valley for fun, and the guards do not obstruct them.

Yang Xiao directly entered the valley, reached a flat area, excitedly took out the Flying Leopard Thunder Hammer, and began trying to operate the Storm Axe cultivation technique.

Powerful genetic evolution energy injected into the Thunder Hammer, radiating light and causing the surroundings to stir.

Yang Xiao’s divine sense surged, and the Thunder Hammer flew into the sky.

In the air, a bolt of lightning struck down, chasing the direction of the Thunder Hammer.

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion shook the ground, sending rocks flying.

Within fifty meters of the lightning’s landing, a scorched area formed, with all plants and trees burned instantly, leaving a crater over ten meters in diameter.

"Wow, the power of this Storm Thunder Hammer is truly formidable, and it can activate natural lightning power. If used in rainy, stormy weather, I wonder if the power would be even greater?"

Yang Xiao wished it would rain and storm, but upon looking up at the clear sky, he had to suppress his strong urge.

Yang Xiao then trained in the valley for over an hour, gradually familiarizing himself with the Storm Thunder Hammer’s use.

This Storm Thunder Hammer was a catalyst, able to draw cosmic lightning power and under the user’s control, attack specified targets.

Yang Xiao discovered that the neurological power cultivation Elder Ye taught him came into full play now.

The Thunder Hammer weighed two thousand pounds; without substantial spiritual power, one couldn’t remotely operate the Thunder Hammer in the air to summon lightning and precisely, swiftly attack targets.

According to Dean Xinghai, though the Flying Leopard Thunder Hammer is a three-star divine weapon, Yang Xiao’s genetic evolution realm is only at Empire Level Primary, and currently can only release about ten percent of the Thunder Hammer’s energy.

This was already a surprise to Yang Xiao, as the Thunder Hammer’s attack damage surpassed the Bronze Divine Sword, and importantly, it was an area attack skill. One swing caused widespread damage.

"If one hit can’t solve it, then I’ll use two hits, three hits, until it’s resolved."
