It turns out there really are quite a few wealthy students at Xingluo Academy.

By the time they inspected the thirtieth student, eleven students or guards had Storage Talismans.

Luo Hanshuang was thirty-first in line, and sure enough, she was also asked to step aside.

Aunt Han took out two Storage Talismans—it seemed she had one for herself and was keeping one for Luo Hanshuang.

Qu Jianlei, under everyone's gaze, took out... six Storage Talismans, one of which was borrowed from the eldest young master of the Luo Family.

Almost everyone cast him an unusual glance, including Aunt Han.

Qu Jianlei raised his eyebrows helplessly, unwilling to explain, "Let's go through it again."

The three of them went through the arch again and were once more asked to step aside.

The person in charge of the inspection was a bit annoyed, but considering someone actually brought six Storage Talismans, he couldn't easily act up.

An A-level Warrior cleared his throat, "Take out whatever else you have, we're not robbing you."

The three looked at each other, and finally, Qu Jianlei reached into his arms to take out a gray-black ring.

"Oh my," Aunt Han muttered softly, unable to stop the corner of her mouth from twitching.

Carrying a spatial treasure with you, claiming you're B-level... who would believe that?

The A-level speaker was also taken aback, stepping forward to take the Space Ring and instinctively perceiving it.

Qu Jianlei's heart was in his throat; at that moment, he was particularly thankful he left Kushnier's sachet on the Celestial Sharp Star.

He hid the sachet, not worried about a Customs Enforcement Team inspection.

This place is far from the Hope Star Realm, and Kushnier might not have even been here. How many people know what kind of spatial treasures he uses?

Is the Supreme that impressive? The Supreme from the Distant Star Realm might not even be known in this Star Realm.

He was worried about the exposure of the Qi Gathering Array, feeling uncertain about the Celestial Hook Enigma Mansion, so he naturally minimized potential risks.

Besides, all those sensitive items like Divine Text Materials, modified Cultivation Techniques, and the like were placed in the sachet.

But even in the current Storage Ring, there were still sensitive items.

For instance, Paraquat, Electromagnetic Shocking Flash Bombs, and an intelligence terminal from the Customs Enforcement Division... these could be needed at any moment.

Fortunately, the A-level inspector didn't pay attention to these.

Even if he recognized the intelligence terminal, he might not care—Customs Enforcement Division's business perhaps only mattered to them.

It's what the Customs Enforcement Division disseminated that might involve covert transactions. Who would be foolish enough to stir up an old mess?

However, this person did ask a rather strange question, "This ring is interesting... how did you get it?"

Qu Jianlei thought for a moment and spat out four words, "None of your damn business!"

His nature wasn't great, and with this commotion, everyone now knew he had a Space Ring.

In his anger, he couldn't be bothered thinking too much: You just focus on checking for contraband. I have no obligation to satisfy your curiosity.

The A-level raised his head, looking at him in surprise: Young man, you're quite bold, huh.

He had been overseeing the Mist Mansion for many years, having seen all sorts of peculiar things, truly knowledgeable.

Just as Qu Jianlei thought, he did recognize the intelligence terminal from the Customs Enforcement Division, but what does that matter to him!

What interested him was this ring, so out of curiosity, he asked.

However, the other party's attitude made him somewhat angry: Do you know who you're talking to?

If he wished, banning someone from entering the Mist Mansion was simple enough; taken to extremes, he could even apprehend the person!

Needless to say, within this Light Shield, there were two Supremes present.

So he was astonished to see the other party calmly meet his gaze.

Some courage there, he couldn't help thinking again, given that the other carried six Storage Talismans.

Having guarded the Mist Mansion entrance, he'd witnessed so many bizarre things.

Everyone knew the one guarding the entrance wasn't simple; they owed no one any favors, capable of life and death decisions within their authority.

However, there's always a prefix, "within their authority."

The prefix generally wasn't triggered, but this A-level had personally witnessed his colleague offend someone they shouldn't have.

At best, their future was ruined, at worst, their whole family disappeared.

So he finally just gave a cold laugh, "Young man has quite the temper."

Isn't it expected for a young person to have a temper? Qu Jianlei really wanted to retort.

But he really disliked arguing and had to consider the academy's feelings, so he finally said nothing, merely eyeing the other indifferently.

Seeing the other not retort, the A-level felt a bit appeased, raising his hand to toss the ring back, "Mind your words."

Qu Jianlei ignored him, directly stuffing the ring into his chest.

With this, the episode concluded, yet everyone present remembered this Gold Attribute B-level.

Daring to swear at the Mist Mansion keeper at least marked him as fearless due to ignorance.

But carrying six Storage Talismans and a spatial treasure... clearly, it's not just ignorance.

At the very end of the inspection, a problem did arise; a guard brought by a student, with an anti-matter Dimension-Breaking Bullet appearing in their Storage Talisman.

The student and his guardians were immediately detained on the spot, and even the teachers from Xingluo Academy didn't dare to intervene.

Both of the student's guardians were B-level, with only one Storage Talisman, which was obviously not easy to come by.

The guardian holding the Storage Talisman kept arguing, saying that the item really wasn't theirs and they didn't know who had put it there.

The Watcher seemed unconcerned and said, "We will investigate this thoroughly, and we will not wrong a good person or let a bad person go."

They had encountered such incidents so many times that they handled it with great familiarity.

Luo Hanshuang saw this scene and felt indignant inside—after all, the ones being bullied were her schoolmates.

She muttered softly, "I've never even heard that dark matter can be effectively stored and made into a Fire Bomb?"

After she said that, she found no one responded, so she nudged Qu Jianlei with her elbow, "Big Brother Ran, what do you think?"

"I really don't understand this," Qu Jianlei spread his hands, "I only know that dark matter can affect dimensional frameworks."

Speaking of this, Luo Hanshuang indeed knew a bit. "It should be dark energy that affects dimensional frameworks, right?"

"Depends on how you define dark energy," Qu Jianlei replied carelessly, "Anyway, messing with dimensions is quite unscrupulous."

Luo Hanshuang pouted, her baby-fat cheeks becoming even rounder, "That's just picking a fight."

Qu Jianlei looked at her big eyes—was this what clear foolishness looked like?

It seemed her sarcasm was futile, and instead, a guard heard her words.

Thankfully, the Gold Attribute B-level by her side had just had a flare-up, and others didn't want to trouble her.

Next came the signing of the confidentiality agreement—and it was the joint liability kind.

The A-level presiding over the matter even announced: "This agreement involves unknown great powers, and not even B-level, A-level, or Supreme can resist it."

Qu Jianlei thought the other party might not be exaggerating, because at the moment of signing, he vaguely felt a layer of causality forming in his Sea of Consciousness.

"This... is kind of magical."

After signing, everyone walked toward the four-story building.

The first floor had a very high ceiling, about five meters high, and as soon as they entered the building, there was a large screen in front.

Qu Jianlei looked and frowned slightly, "This is... Blue Star style, isn't it?"

Turning past the screen, there was an empty area, and not far off was the building's back wall with a pair of double doors set into it.

The doors were a bluish-gray color, not quite like metal, but not quite like stone either, with two rings set into them, and above the rings was a beast's head.

The pair of beast heads held two rings, but the beast heads were almost worn down, making it hard to tell what they originally were.

Yet Qu Jianlei was increasingly certain that this was definitely from Blue Star—more specifically, from Divine Land!

Right after that, a wave of spiritual power engulfed them, vast and majestic with an indescribable charm.

Indeed, a Supreme was present! Qu Jianlei was all too familiar with this level of spiritual power.

Moreover, for such an important place to have no Supreme guarding it was rather strange.

He wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but he felt that the Supreme's spiritual power lingered on him longer than usual,

but then again, it was probably normal, right? He had behaved so defiantly just now; if no one paid attention, it would rather be unreasonable.

The Supreme's spiritual power wave lasted for about half a minute.

Just when everyone was feeling a bit unable to endure, the two doors suddenly... opened.

"Alright," the Watcher said, "you can go in now."

"Hanshuang," a tall girl called out to Luo Hanshuang, "shall we go together?"

Just by looking at her face, this girl could score a seven to seven and a half even on Blue Star.

But as for her figure, well... she wasn't exactly Qu Jianlei's type.

Honestly, even on Blue Star, she wasn't considered tall, barely about 1.63 meters—could that be considered tall?

Her guardians were an A-level female and a B-level male.

"Sure, let's go together," Luo Hanshuang nodded, hesitated, and then added, "But we need to be on the same ring."

"Then how about..." the tall girl hesitated, "switching with one of your guardians?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Qu Jianlei—eliminate this eyesore of a man, and the three of us women can do whatever we want, right?

Or, switch out her own male guardian and let Luo Hanshuang join in too.

Luo Hanshuang shook her head decisively, "Let's not do that; I want to get in earlier."

"Alright then," the tall girl didn't insist, "we'll team up if we meet inside."

In the next moment, three teachers went through the door together, and at the entrance, ripples spread like water, calming in about half a minute.

Then a student with two guardians also entered through the door.

Groups of three went in this way, and soon it was Luo Hanshuang's group's turn.

Qu Jianlei stepped through the door, feeling as if his vision went dark, and there was a slight dizziness.

The next moment, there was a burst of light, and he found himself in a wilderness, with the sky a gloomy gray.

Qu Jianlei smirked and couldn't help but mutter, "Damn, a Secret Realm?"
