A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 758 - 744: The Stele

After looking over the entire wall, Teacher Gong continued to walk forward.

The students from the two academies followed closely behind.

They were like curious babies, wanting to touch and feel everything.

Previously, only the excavation team had been working below, and no one else had come down.

Now that they were down here.

Naturally, they were curious about everything.

"It's best for everyone to stay close to us. If you find anything unusual, report it immediately."

Teacher Hu didn't stop the students from being curious.

He brought this group of students out mainly for training purposes.

Since they had an opportunity to explore a harmless ruin, letting them learn on their own was not a bad idea.

With Teacher Hu's words.

The students from the Investigation Academy immediately scattered in all directions like birds and beasts.

However, these students also knew their limits.

No one destroyed any of the buildings.

Even their actions were cautious, fearing they might damage the integrity of the ruins.

The students from the Symbol Research Academy, on the other hand, stayed by Teacher Gong's side, gradually learning about the entire ruins and the vast Frost Imperial, which vanished before the Dark Era, through his explanations.

The entire ruin did not appear very vast.

But if one were to investigate carefully, it would be an enormous workload.

The group had only finished examining one section of the housing area when suddenly, a wave of excited discussions came from afar.

The discussions were mostly exclamations and not due to any danger.

Teacher Gong frowned.

He was slightly displeased that the noise from the students of the Investigation Academy was affecting his research.

However, his displeasure did not last long.

Teacher Hu came running over, excitement on his face: "Teacher Gong, over there, a student found a stele.

It's inscribed with many texts of the Frost Imperial!

Judging by its appearance.

It should be a memorial stele, recording historical information of the Frost Imperial!"

Teacher Hu was very excited.

According to the research and hypotheses of current historians, the Frost Imperial might have been the strongest empire in human history.

It unified the entire Human Race, ventured into the Spirit Realm, and the Exotic Beasts of different races were powerless before it.

It was powerful enough to declare war against the Divine Spirit.

During that time, the people of the Frost Imperial loved to engrave the glorious achievements of the Frost Imperial and various great stories on steles, for later generations to admire.

They believed.

The greatness of the Frost Imperial should be remembered and celebrated.

These memorial steles were made from some unknown mineral, which even today, human scientists cannot decipher.

The appearance of a memorial stele.

Completely transformed the significance of this ruin.

"Take me over there."

Teacher Gong was visibly stirred, unable to restrain his steps, eager to reach the memorial stele at once.

The two hurried in the direction from which the commotion came, without saying much more.

Baiyu and others quickly followed.

After crossing two blocks of the ruins, Teacher Hu stopped.

Soon enough.

Everyone saw the Investigation Academy students gathered in a circle up ahead.

Teacher Gong pushed his way through the crowd.

In front of him was a stele about two meters high, entirely black.

However, judging from the size of the stele, a larger portion should be buried underground, with only a small part aboveground.

"Teacher Gong, take a closer look at what's written on it. Everyone, quiet down and don't disturb Teacher Gong's translation."

Teacher Hu commanded.

The students surrounding the area quickly retreated, leaving a large open space with only the old teacher in the center.

He leisurely took out a magnifying glass from his pocket.

He then approached the stele, examining each word carefully to discern its content.

Even though the other buildings had been eroded and weathered beyond recognition over time.

The stele remained in excellent preservation.

Every word on it was clearly visible.

However, some words were quite obscure, requiring Teacher Gong to carefully identify and think about them to understand their meaning.

Everyone waited expectantly.

But.

As Teacher Gong read, his face grew increasingly grim, even a hint of disbelief and trepidation in his eyes.

At this moment, Teacher Hu also realized something was amiss and swiftly stepped forward, "What's wrong?"

"This isn't a memorial stele; it records the last words of the Frost Imperial people who lived here at the time of their destruction."

Teacher Gong said gravely.

Teacher Hu frowned, "What does it say?"

"It's still unclear; most of the stele is deeply buried underground. We must excavate it to understand fully.

Get the excavation team over.

Don't rush to dig up the second area; let's excavate here first."

Teacher Gong instinctively felt something unusual about this matter and decided to focus on unearthing the stele first.

Teacher Hu had no objections and directly approved this suggestion.

"All students, temporarily exit the ruins and set up camp outside. Await further instruction. Do not act randomly."

Following Teacher Hu's instructions.

Even though the students were very interested in the ruins, they had to return the way they came and leave the ruins.

Baiyu followed the main group, reaching the open ground outside the ruins.

Since the Investigation Academy students arrived earlier, they had already set up a temporary camp, and the Symbol Research Academy students only needed to pitch tents nearby.

This task was not difficult.

Baiyu quickly set up his tent and began to rejuvenate himself inside.

The ruins were evidently straightforward.

He could sense that there might be something bizarre inside, and remained at Peak at all times.

Even if he couldn't win.

He had to escape.

Before long.

After setting up camp, the students returned to their tents and began cultivating.

A group of girls, curious and excited, chatted by the campfire, full of enthusiasm.

This group of girls chatted by the campfire until late into the night.

Teachers Gong and Hu remained in the ruins, guiding the excavation team as they unearthed the stele.

Deep into the night. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Most of the people in the camp fell into a deep sleep.

Baiyu sat in his tent, like a monk in meditation, continuously refining the Blood Qi within his body.

Suddenly.

A figure stopped outside the tent.

"Baiyu, are you asleep?" Tian Haobin's voice came through.

Baiyu opened his eyes, unsure of Tian Haobin's intention to approach him but allowed him in.

"What's the matter?"

Baiyu observed Tian Haobin, fully dressed, with a retractable metal staff on his back, and frowned.

Tian Haobin said, "We're planning to head into the ruins tonight, interested in joining us?

An older brother from the Investigation Academy is leading, there won't be any trouble.

Anything found in the ruins belongs to whoever finds it, it's a great chance to hit the jackpot."

After hearing him out, the surprise on Baiyu's face slowly subsided; he hadn't expected these students to consider acting on their own initiative!
