Chapter 809 - 252: Thunder Tribulation (Part 2)

"Did the Sect Master intervene?"

"Did he finally act after ten thousand years? Isn’t that too long..."

"It’s not necessarily ten thousand years! Maybe Teacher Bai Mei asked the Sect Master to act!"

Shui Ling immediately made a judgment, "Quick, check if the teacher replied to our message!"

Both of them took out their phones and glanced at them.

All were unread.

The two exchanged a look and both took a deep breath.

This meant the teacher had no idea about their self-sealing — then somehow the Sect Master discovered it, directly came to assist, not only unlocking the seal but also dealing with the attacking Disaster Beast...

Though they didn’t know how the Celestial Thunder came about, or why it resembled the Sect Master’s purple magic power.

But both were more in awe and admiration of the elusive Sect Master.

"We must strive to enter the Inner Sect to see what the Sect Master is like!"

...

Before dawn, reports were flying everywhere.

Phones rang incessantly, Magical Girls were flying about.

Keke, following Yin Lian, naturally saw the damage reports.

The direct financial loss caused by the Celestial Thunder was not high; most buildings were not damaged by the purple magic thunder.

The Thunder only targeted the Magical Girls; even hidden in buildings, it would penetrate directly and strike the Magical Girls.

The only exception was the Headquarter.

The involved Iris insisted that the purple thunder at the Headquarter would definitely damage buildings, so although she accidentally blew up half the Headquarter, it essentially protected it.

Finally, Jin Cha accepted this view and publicly praised Iris as a hero who protected the Headquarter.

The statistics on the attacked Magical Girls were not yet complete, but over a hundred Magical Girls were confirmed to be struck.

The good news was there were no casualties; all lightning strikes ended when the Magical Girls reverted their transformations.

Even though Iris’s Psychic Realm was blown once, the impact was minor; she just stumbled with no other injuries.

Keke breathed a sigh of relief over this.

After all, with the purple thunder, perhaps others couldn’t discern it, but she and her teacher have been together long enough to distinguish it, right?

No one else but Teacher Zi Yuan could do this, directly spanning three regions and targeting so many Magical Girls.

Avoiding buildings aside, she even precisely stopped when the Magical Girls reverted their transformations...

As for the reason for doing so.

"After being struck by lightning, when held on, a new type of purple magic appeared within the seed, and I can freely convert my magic power into purple magic attributes, and I feel I have gained further understanding and control over the nature transformation of magic power..."

Indeed, thus all Magical Girls struck by lightning also gained a new purple magic power.

And with this newly acquired power, everyone mastered the control over two types of magic attributes, even making it possible to change the attribute of their magic once.

This was the reason Teacher Zi Yuan summoned down the Celestial Thunder.

Keke actually sensed this as well, feeling her own control over magic had progressed, even able to alter the nature of her pure magic power.

All thanks to Teacher Zi Yuan’s Celestial Thunder.

She just couldn’t confirm if it was only her or everyone else had it; after confirming that those who successfully underwent the tribulation had it, Keke relaxed.

She knew Teacher Zi Yuan would never do anything meaningless! Every action is well-thought-out and purposeful!

But accordingly, the Magical Girls who successfully underwent the tribulation experienced qualitative improvement.

Those who failed also faced significant penalties.

For example, Yin Lian.

As the captain, after the tribulation ended, she received the most phone calls, handling contacts and statistics from the Headquarter and orders from the Beihai Disaster Strategy Bureau.

Flying around the city for quite a while, after all affairs were handled, she returned, tearfully hugged Keke:

"I finally rose to the Middle Stage of Full Bloom, Keke, my magic power level fell back to the Initial Stage..."

"I called Dandelion, and she said I’m now a Budding Seedling."

"What does Seedling mean?"

"Those who fail the tribulation can’t be truly regarded as Magical Girls at the Initial Stage of Full Bloom; they’re just called Budding Seedlings, stronger than New Seedling Peak Great Perfection merely."

Indeed, thus all Magical Girls who failed the tribulation dropped a level.

Though not dropping back to New Seedlings, most Full Blossoming Magical Girls, once stepping into this realm, see significant magic power total increase, easily considered Initial Stage of Full Bloom.

But if they can’t withstand the thunder, their magic power shrinks instantly, falling below even the Initial First Revolution.

Almost indistinguishable from New Seedling Peak Great Perfection.

Yin Lian was one of the unlucky ones.

Now lying on Keke’s shoulder, utterly heartbroken.

"Your teacher is really too cruel, Keke."

Keke patted her head: "The teacher is ensuring you build a solid foundation, not reaching for what you can’t grasp, because a mere rise in realm without a strong foundation isn’t enough, the teacher is doing this for your benefit."

"Besides, you’re always siding with Zi Yuan!"

"I’m not, I’m just saying the truth!"

Yin Lian, acting like a child, threw a tantrum: "I don’t care, I don’t care, my realm fell, you have to compensate me."

"What does this have to do with me?"

"What Zi Yuan did is what you did, there’s shared responsibility between master and disciple!"
