Chapter 227
Ai Hui’s confidence increased tremendously after he managed to successfully seal the sword pill into his left hand palace .
Now he needed to follow the same steps to "roll" the remaining elemental energy swords into sword pills .
It was a big project that required a long span of focused attention and was as dry as dust .
Due to the amount of time Ai Hui had spent roaming around the edges of death, concentration was now second nature to him, almost like breathing . Dull and repetitive content could easily make people lose their patience, but not for Ai Hui . He could concentrate for long periods of time .
When he was concentrating, he did not care about others and would be fully immersed in his own world .
As he was usually concentrating, in other people’s eyes, it always seemed like he was disregarding them and paying no attention to their opinions .
Indeed, he has never taken other people’s viewpoints into account . When he is caught within a wild beast’s teeth and sharp claws, other people’s opinions would not increase his likelihood of survival .
As such, why not spend more time on improving himself? No one would be able to easily strip him of his personal improvements . He could change his fate by improving himself .
Having his fate in his own hands gave him a sense of security .
Ai Hui took pleasure in his task .
He made many discoveries . For example, he realized that the remnants of the sword embryo’s energy waves were the strongest in the sky palace . Thinking back to the sword embryo’s former location, he realized that this fact was not strange . He also found that within both his hand palaces and his earth palace, there was an abundance of electric currents . This was the result of using [Dust Fall] to draw lightning into both hand palaces and the earth palace .
He also discovered that within both his left and right hand palaces, if the sword pills were rotated faster than a specific speed, the surplus electric rays would be stimulated .
What an interesting phenomenon . Ai Hui mentally noted it down and continued to "roll" the sword pills .
After scanning the remaining amount of elemental energy, he assessed the number of sword pills he’d created . He felt that he could become a grand pastry chef in the future .
He’d also considered forming eight whirlpools within the Eight Palaces to absorb the elemental energy automatically . After all, whirlpools were steady structures; however, Ai Hui gave up the thought after recalling how the elemental energy ball in his body had previously been hard to absorb .
If he managed to form whirlpools within his elemental energy palaces, it would be easy for elemental energy to enter the elemental energy palaces . It would, however, be difficult to extract the elemental energy from the palaces afterwards .
While the sword pills were not as effective or stable as whirlpools, they were easier to control . To Ai Hui, who no longer had the aid of the sword embryo, it was more important for him to be able to gain control .
Shi Xueman and the rest had been waiting for a long time, but there were no indications that Ai Hui was going to stop . Everyone started to take breaks after hearing Lou Lan say that Ai Hui would still need a long time to recover . After going through an ardent battle, all of them were battered and tired . Nevertheless, Shi Xueman still sent someone to pass on the message that Ai Hui had woken up .
Many were still waiting for the news .
The battle on the streets had solidified Ai Hui’s status and prestige in Central Pine City . The scene where thunder had filled the entire sky was unforgettable to all the survivors .
Such a grand performance took everyone’s breath away .
Since the beginning of the blood catastrophe, Ai Hui was the one who rose to fame during the battle on the streets . He was the first person in Central Pine City to rely on his own strength to save everyone from the desperate crisis .
Everyone was looking forward to having their own Ye Baiyi in Central Pine City to bring them out of the Induction Ground alive . Furthermore, after learning that their mayor was a survivor of the Battle of the Dawn, the comparison stuck in their heads; It had spread throughout the city overnight .
Ye Baiyi had not initially been known as Icy Flames Ye .
At the time of the Battle of the Dawn, Ye Baiyi had just been an ordinary team leader from the Icy Flames Division .
The cruel Battle of the Dawn had allowed Ye Baiyi to step onto a stage belonging only to him .
The survivors in Central Pine City strongly believed that Ai Hui, who had participated in the battle on the streets, had the calibre to walk the same route .
Ai Hui’s hard laborer background, the fact that he was still a first-year student in Central Pine City, and that he has yet to achieve the Initial Completion all pointed to him being a genius .
But after the battle on the streets, Ai Hui had slipped into coma and this tugged at many of the people’s heartstrings . Some of them were worried that Ai Hui had sustained serious injuries, while others were optimistic and felt that it was a sign that Ai Hui was going to have a breakthrough .
Everyone was closely following Ai Hui’s condition . That thin youth was shouldering their hopes of survival .
"Our Ai Baiyi has awakened," teasingly said the mayor . He was in a good mood . After hearing too many comparisons between Ai Hui and Ye Baiyi, he decided to jokingly call Ai Hui as Ai Baiyi .
Ai Hui’s rise had reversed the situation . The city gates were once again sealed and the blood fiends had been utterly defeated . How could he not be in a good mood? If Ai Hui hadn’t been around, what would it have been like that day? The mayor had previously prepared himself mentally to sacrifice half of the troops who were going to seal the door .
The dean smiled, but then frowned while saying, "Such publicity would not be beneficial to his growth . "
He was also proud of Ai Hui . When he had given the original [Big Dipper] to Ai Hui, he had still had some reservations on doing so; however, everyone now praised him saying that he has good perception .
"Let’s focus on what’s going on in the present . " Wang Zhen passed a cup of water to the dean . "Everyone needs Ai Baiyi now . The higher authorities are considering Ai Hui’s rewards . The number of Heaven Merit Points should be quite substantial . "
The dean took the cup and took a sip . He stayed quiet; he knew what Wang Zhen meant .
