Chapter 9 The Yang and Yin Coronets (above)
Ji Dong looked at Teacher Autumn with some surprise, in his memories, there was another way of saying Southern Propane Fire, that is Southern Vermilion Bird Propane Fire. It was just like the Eastern Green Dragon A and B Wood. That is to say, in his memory, the divine beasts belonging to both C Fire and D Fire should be the Vermilion Bird. The Vermilion Bird was also known as the Phoenix, and there was no doubt that the silhouettes behind Summer and Dean Yang Bingtian were phoenixes. But why did a large blue snake appear behind Teacher Autumn, who was a Yin-Yang Magician of the Ding Fire system? Moreover, this snake seemed to have a pair of wings that were very light in color.
Red light and blue light coalesced above the two teachers' heads respectively, and a crown appeared on each of their heads, and the moment that crown appeared, it instantly became the center of their own magical power release.
The crown that appeared on top of Teacher Summer's head was the same as Dean Yang Bingtian's, white in color, covered with a golden rim, with nine tips standing upright, and a red bead on each of the tips as well. The only difference was the flame pattern on the spikes and the different number of those stars on the front of the crown. The crown on Teacher Summer's head only had red flame branding on the three spikes on the front, while the stars on the circle below were as many as four, half a star more than Dean Yang Bingtian.
On the other hand, the crown on Teacher Autumn's head was what Ji Dong had seen for the first time. That crown was black in color, covered with a golden rim, and also had nine tips standing upright, only that on each tip was a blue bead, of which there were also three tips with a flame pattern on them, but they were also blue. The star-like branding on the circle below was instead two and a half.
The whole body was shrouded in red light, as well as the blazing flames on the palm of his hand, making Summer look like a fire god descending, and his originally extremely tough appearance looked even stronger, even his eyes took on a touch of red, "See. This is the full battle state of the C Fire Yin Yang Demon Master and the D Fire Yin Yang Demon Master."
While saying that, Summer raised his hand and the crown on top of his head floated down and landed in his hand, "Ten lineage Yin-Yang Demon Masters, five lineages belong to Yang and five lineages belong to Yin. What I am releasing now, this is the Yang Coronet of the C Fire system, while what Teacher Autumn is releasing is the Yin Coronet of the D Fire system. Regardless of whether it's a yang or yin corona, it's the source of power for a Yin-Yang Demon Master, and whether or not one can condense a yin and yang corona is also the most basic requirement for testing a Yin-Yang Demon Master."
He held his Yang Coronet with one hand, and one hand pointed to the five centimeter wide circle below the Yang Coronet, "Regardless of whether it's a Yang Coronet or a Yin Coronet, the whole is divided into four parts, first of all, the circle you see is called the Coronet Ring, which is the foundation of the Yin-Yang Coronet. Each coronation ring has nine peaks on it, which we call coronation peaks, which are the tips of these nine triangles above. Together, they form the most basic yin-yang corona. You all see the four stars on this coronation ring of mine, named the Coronation Star, and the flame brand on the coronation peaks, which we call the crown. These all represent the rank of the Yin Yang Magician."
"Coronation stars, represent the basic rank of our Yin Yang Magician, divided into ten levels, from one to ten, you guys have to remember clearly, a coronation star represents not one level, but two levels. Like I have four corona stars on this yin and yang corona, it means that I have reached the eighth level in my current title. I have three coronary peaks that possess the flame brand that symbolizes our C Fire System, which is called the Three Crowns. Having several Coronation Peaks with such a brand is called several crowns. Whenever we cultivate our Coronation Stars to five, which is level ten, then, through a special cultivation method, we will be able to possess a crown, and likewise, our Yin-Yang Magician title will change."
Teacher Autumn also beckoned the Yin Crown on her head into her hand and took over Summer's words, "Regardless of the lineage of Yin-Yang Demon Masters, we all share the same rank classification. According to different cultivation levels, they have different titles."
"For those of you who have just begun to enter cultivation, or those who have not coalesced the Yin Yang Coronet in the academy, we collectively refer to them as apprentices. Those of the C-Fire lineage are C-Fire Apprentices, and those of the D-Fire lineage are D-Fire Apprentices. When you have your own Coronation Star, you can add the rank in front of it. For example, half a Coronet Star would be a Level 1 C-Fire Apprentice or a Level 1 Ding-Fire Apprentice. When you have cultivated to the point where you are five-star, tenth level apprentices, then you will condense your own Yin-Yang Coronet, then your titles will change accordingly. At that time, you will possess a crown. The five coronation stars will also disappear with it. Only after you have cultivated five more Coronet Stars at the tenth level will you be elevated again to the Second Crown. The title of our Yin Yang Magician is what changes with the number of crowns. From low to high, they are, Apprentice, Bachelor, Master, Master, Grandmaster, Grand Master, Celestial Scholar, Celestial Master, Celestial Exalted, and Exclusive Title."
Summer interjected, "Thus, my full title in the Yin Yang Magician Realm right now would be, Triple Crown Yang Coronation 8th Grade C Fire Master. And Teacher Autumn's title would be, Triple Crown Yin Coronation Level 5 D Fire System Master. Today is your first class, so much for the theory. Now anyone who doesn't understand anything can ask. Teacher Autumn and I will answer for you." While saying that, both he and Autumn withdrew their magic power, and the Yang and Yin Coronets disappeared with them.
The first one to voice out a question was still Ji Dong, an ordinary ten year old child and being in a new environment for the first time would more or less have some stage fright, but this situation obviously wouldn't happen to him whose mental age was over thirty. As soon as Summer's voice fell, he immediately raised his hand to ask a question, "Teacher Summer, I have three questions. First, of the ten titles of Yin Yang Magician that you mentioned earlier, what is that last exclusive title. That should only be available after reaching the Nine Crowns, right."
Summer froze for a moment and lost his smile, "You kid thinks far, the Nine Crowns, that is only a legendary existence and the ultimate goal that all of us Yin Yang Magicians aspire to. Frankly speaking, there is no need for you to know about it at all. But since you asked, I can tell you that the exclusive titles of the ten lineages of Yin-Yang Magicians who have cultivated to the topmost Nine Crowns are all different. The exclusive title of our C Fire lineage is: Gong Cao. The exclusive title of the D Fire Department is: Tai Chong. As for the other lineages, even I am not very clear about it."
A thought-provoking glint appeared in Ji Dong's eyes, "My second question is, an illusory light shadow appeared behind both you and Teacher Autumn just now, the one behind you was a big red bird, and the one behind Teacher Autumn was a big snake that seemed to have wings. What's going on here?"
