"Yeah, if I really became her apprentice, there might be some benefits," Cang Nanyan said.
"That won’t happen," Shen Ye shook his head.
"It won’t?" the Swordswoman asked.
"She’s just in a good mood for the moment. If I underperform next time, she’ll still kill me, no matter what I am to her," Shen Ye said.
"How can you be so sure?" asked the Nangong Family Head.
"People like her only love themselves; they look favorably on others only because those others are useful," after saying this, Shen Ye looked at Xu Xingke, "For another thing, I do have a mentor."
Xu Xingke’s expression didn’t change, but he lit a cigarette and took a deep breath before saying, "Fine then, you’ve saved the entire Jade Capital, your judgment should be sound."
"What’s next? What are our plans?" Shen Ye asked.
The few of them exchanged glances.
"Shen Ye..." Cang Nanyan put a hand on his shoulder and said in a low voice, "We have a big plan."
"What is it? Are we fighting her?" Shen Ye asked.
"We can’t say now. In any case, we’re putting all our effort into something, but it requires time," the Swordswoman said.
"You need to stall Cloud Rainbow Celestial Honor," said Xu Xingke seriously, "You must hold her off until our plan is complete."
"— May I ask if the plan is reliable?" Shen Ye asked.
He suddenly saw a flicker of uncertainty on the faces of the powerhouses.
It seemed...
They themselves were not sure if the plan was reliable.
Shen Ye quickly adjusted his mindset.
He himself had little confidence; he could only delay things day by day.
Better to wreck the pot since it’s already cracked.
Let’s get out of this first.
Huh?
Wrong thought, not that character.
Let’s drag this out first.
"Alright, I’ll do my best to hold her off," Shen Ye said seriously.

"We are counting on you; we need to hasten our plan," said the Swordswoman.
"Understood," Shen Ye nodded.
The several powerhouses "swooshed" away in a flash.
Only Shen Ye was left behind.
From his phone came Kunlun’s voice:
"I can send a Flying Shuttle to take you back to the city—do you want to go to the school dormitory, or to a single rest room at the Renjian Wudao Building?"
"Back to the dorm," Shen Ye said tiredly as he massaged his temples.
Twenty minutes later.
Breath Soil High School.

Shen Ye pushed open the door to his dormitory.
Nangong Sirui wasn’t there.
Several notes were left on the table:
"Check out the book with a white cover on the table."
"— Nangong Sirui."
Shen Ye was speechless.
Okay, loving to read is good and I support it, but I’m too busy!
Both busy and tired!
Right now, I really want a good sleep.
He looked at the next note:
"Brother Ye, we found a brand of instant noodles that’s really tasty; left you a few packets in your locker."
"— Guo Yunye, Zhang Xiaoyi."
Great buddies!
How did you know I haven’t had dinner yet!
Shen Ye walked to his locker, opened it, and sure enough, there were several packets of instant noodles inside, along with sausages!
Boil water, prepare noodles.
Throw in the sausages, then place the book from the table on top of the noodle container to ensure no air can escape.
Shen Ye glanced at the cover of the book.
"Multi-Universe Insect Encyclopedia and Behavioral Study."
He yawned.
So sleepy.
The title isn’t even slightly intriguing.
—Besides, seems like I have Cosmic Giant Insect blood in me too.
Xiao San, you’d be better off studying me than the insects.
The noodles are ready.
Shen Ye picked up the instant noodles with a disposable fork and started enjoying them.
The taste was indeed good.
Tomorrow I should invite Guo Yunye and Zhang Xiaoyi to the cafeteria for a meal.
While Shen Ye was wolfing down the noodles, suddenly an alarm went off on his phone.
11:57 PM.
—Before, I prepared to open the gate every day at midnight, arriving at the Otherworld on time.
Now...
It seems after my gate power evolved into the "Seal Gate," it can still connect to the nearest world.
Looks like that’s a basic ability.
...Shall I go to Dusk Star tonight?
Shen Ye hesitated.
As he was eating noodles and hesitating, the clock struck exactly midnight.
Suddenly.
A line of dimly lit small script quietly appeared:
"Today’s time is up."
"You have opened the Seal Gate three times in total today."
"Based on your performance in opening the Seal Gate three times, you will receive a new Evaluation Entry."
Shen Ye was startled.
What!
Not only had the gate evolved, but the way to acquire entries had changed too!
Before, I had to go through the gate to a Different World, and the performance there determined the quality of the entry.
Now.
The main function of the gate is to open the Seal Land of multiple universes!
The corresponding entries have also shifted to this feature!
Shen Ye continued reading:
"Today, you have earned a new entry:"
"Up-and-Comer."
"Dark Green Entry (Excellent Grade, growth-type entry, bestowable-type entry)."
"Description: During activities with three or more people, others will subconsciously provide care to the person with this entry."
"This entry can be bestowed upon others for use and can also be reclaimed at any time."
"—Everyone should care for the newcomer!"
"Evaluation: You opened the gate three times, each time without error, which is difficult for a novice."
"You can keep this Evaluation Entry to upgrade it in the future; you can also consume this Evaluation Entry to gain Basic Attribute Points."
Shen Ye read through it quickly.
To receive a Dark Green, Excellent Grade entry.
—Probably because of that "bestowable" trait.
This entry...
Though it’s not for combat, maybe James could use it in the upcoming battles in the Immortal Country!
I’ll hold onto it for now.
Shen Ye suddenly became excited.
Can opening a Seal Gate actually create entries?
If so, once I recover my energy, on a brand new day, can’t I just create another entry by opening the Seal Gate again?
Another line of dimly lit script emerged:
