The sight of the five-story tower fully illuminated was something all the students were witnessing for the first time.

This skill pavilion, glowing entirely, looked exceptionally beautiful.

The large group of students gathered around were all staring at the skill pavilion, dumbfounded.

For a moment, there wasn't a single sound in the air.

It was as if time had frozen.

"A five-star skill is indeed impressive, but..."

Qian Xingtianxia glanced at the expressions of the people around him, somewhat puzzled, and said, "Is there really a need to be this exaggerated?"

He had no idea that it had been many years since any student had obtained a five-star skill from the skill pavilion.

In his heart, the fact that the entire skill pavilion was lit up actually gave him a lot of confidence.

After all, he only knew that skills could be chosen in the pavilion, but he wasn't sure if there were really five-star skills inside.

Now, having confirmed it with his own eyes, he was quite excited.

"Young Master Qian, although these academy students are impressive, to put it bluntly, they're just NPCs with no vision. To them, we players are like the chosen ones, so it's normal for them to be amazed."

Zainxia Faye, standing nearby, analyzed quietly and then complimented, "Once the person inside comes out, Young Master Qian, you should go in and let that Grey see that you can also obtain a five-star skill!"

"Alright, one must remain humble. I heard the person choosing skills inside is the National Server's Number One Priest, Mortal World, so it might still be a bit challenging."

Though he said this, the corners of Qian Xingtianxia's mouth were already grinning from ear to ear.

He was also eager to enter the skill pavilion, select a five-star skill, and then see the astonished look on that arrogant Grey's face.

Inside the skill pavilion.

Jiang Chen was rapidly descending from the air, and the white wings behind him vanished the moment he landed.

To deal with the Fire Wyvern's clone, he had used the white wing form for nearly 10 minutes and the black wing form for 1 minute and 14 seconds.

If it weren't for considering his "teammates," he could have shortened the time he used the wings considerably.

At this moment, behind Jiang Chen were the three teammates created by the skill pavilion.

Apart from the Knight clone, whose health had reduced by more than half, the Mage and Warrior clones behind him were unharmed.

In front of Jiang Chen were clusters of still-burning fireballs and the boss lying on the ground.

At the same time, Jiang Chen saw that the skill stone pillar at the center of the pavilion was fully illuminated with white light.

The system prompt appeared.

[You have passed the five-star ability test and can obtain a five-star skill. Please place your hand on the skill stone pillar to receive the skill!]

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

"It's here!"

Jiang Chen's eyes focused slightly as he quickly walked to the glowing stone pillar and placed his hand on it.

Immediately, the light on the stone pillar began to converge from the top and bottom towards the center.

Before long, the ends of the stone pillar dimmed, and a white light orb formed in the center.

It floated out from the stone pillar and slowly landed in Jiang Chen's hand.

Inside the light orb was a skill book.

[Life Sacrifice (Five-Star): Priest (High Priest) skill; can be used when the target's health is below 70%; reduces own total health by 10% and instantly restores the target's total health by 10%.

No cost, cooldown: 30 seconds.]

"A sacrifice-type skill?"

Jiang Chen looked at the skill book in his hand, his eyes lighting up.

In [Gods], the reason male Healers are what they are is largely due to the existence of sacrifice-type skills.

Even a Priest with no equipment, as long as they have a sacrifice-type skill, can play a significant role.

Sacrifice-type skills have always been the divine skills that the Priest class relies on for survival.

However, sacrifice-type skills are extremely rare because all skills of this type are five-star.

Jiang Chen clapped his hands, and the skill book turned into a stream of light and merged into his body.

A sixth skill appeared on his skill bar.

Without hesitation, Jiang Chen directly used his talent [Yin-Yang Reversal] on it.

Immediately, the skill effect changed.

[Life Sacrifice (Five-Star) (Reverse): Priest (High Priest) skill; can be used when the target's health is above 70%; restores 25% of own total health and instantly reduces the target's total health by 25%.

No cost, cooldown: 30 seconds.]

"Under the talent effect, sacrificing my own health to heal others has turned into healing myself and reducing others' health, and the health reduction effect has been enhanced to 25%!"

"The only downside is that the target's health must be above 70% to use this skill."

Although the skill had usage requirements, Jiang Chen was still very excited and happy.

Starting off by reducing the opponent's total health by 25%—who could withstand that?

Moreover, he could also heal himself; it was simply outrageous!

"So the true essence of Life Sacrifice is to sacrifice others' lives for myself!"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but marvel with delight.

He was already beginning to imagine acquiring other sacrifice-type skills.

However, such things are hard to come by.

For now, he could only dream about it.

Afterward, Jiang Chen turned and walked out of the skill pavilion.

As soon as he stepped outside the pavilion, he saw a group of people standing not far away, staring straight at him.

Among them were academy students and other players.

His gaze quickly swept over these people, his expression cool, but then a smile appeared on his face.

Because he saw Yuna, smiling like a flower, quickly running towards him. "Big Brother!"

Yuna ran to Jiang Chen's side and immediately threw herself into his arms, hugging his waist tightly.

"Alright, it's only been a day."

Though he said this, Jiang Chen still affectionately patted Yuna's head.

Yuna's eyes turned into crescents, and like a kitten, she rubbed her head against Jiang Chen's hand.

Behind her, Qing Ying and Tao Xiaoyao also walked over happily.

"Brother Mortal World, I want a hug too!"

Especially Qing Ying, who opened her arms and quickened her pace.

"Alright."

Jiang Chen sidestepped swiftly, letting Qing Ying miss her target.

"Do you think my movement is a joke?"

"Why can Yuna, but not me?"

Qing Ying immediately became unhappy, pouting in dissatisfaction.

"She's still young, are you still young?"

Jiang Chen was a bit speechless.

"Big Brother, I'll grow up quickly, and then I want a hug too."

Yuna looked up, her beautiful eyes staring straight at Jiang Chen, speaking very seriously.

"Uh..."

Jiang Chen was momentarily speechless.

"Junior Mortal World, congratulations on obtaining a five-star skill!"

The speaker was Grey from the academy's disciplinary team, his eyes filled with admiration and envy.

Then, Kai Qiang also came over. "Junior Mortal World, you've broken the academy's record for years, truly impressive!"

Subsequently, other students also came forward, either congratulating or praising, making the scene lively.

On the side, Qian Xingtianxia watched Jiang Chen being surrounded by students and said slowly, "It seems that little Lolita is already someone else's. This Mortal World, I must say, really has something, being so popular!"

"It's just because he leveled up a bit faster, allowing him to reach these places first and gain an advantage."

Zainxia Faye, standing nearby, said with great displeasure.

Especially when he saw Yuna being particularly close to Jiang Chen, his eyes were almost burning with jealousy.

"Leveling up fast is also a sign of strength, and this Mortal World isn't just fast at leveling up; he also got the first kill in two dungeons, which is no small feat."

Qian Xingtianxia said thoughtfully.

"I've looked into this Mortal World carefully. Isn't it just because he's handsome and relied on that female Knight in the early stages? That's all."

Zainxia Faye's words carried a hint of sourness.

"Then you need to deepen your investigation. No matter what, this Mortal World is still very strong now, but I'll surpass him soon!"

Qian Xingtianxia said confidently, then looked towards the skill pavilion and said, "Next, it's my turn to perform!"

He strode towards the skill pavilion, saying loudly, "I'm going to choose some skills too!"

"Young Master Qian, the five-star skill is yours!"

Zainxia Faye shouted cooperatively.

The voice was so loud that it drew the attention of the crowd around Jiang Chen.

Many faces showed expressions of surprise.

"Someone else is aiming for a five-star skill?"

"Are there suddenly so many geniuses?"

"Today was really worth it; I must watch closely!"

Many students showed expressions of interest.

Soon, under everyone's gaze, Qian Xingtianxia confidently stepped into the skill pavilion.

"Let's go."

On this side, Jiang Chen wasn't interested in this and was about to turn and leave.

At this moment, an elderly man with a white beard hurriedly walked towards him.

"Have you joined the Light Church?"

The person was Bei Ming, the Dean of Skyward Academy.

It was clear from his tone that there was a hint of gravity.
