CHAPTER 176: CHAPTER 176: ENTERING THE CITY OF LIGHT!

Those reincarnators who had been waiting outside for a long time were now full of excitement and gratitude toward Lin Ye.

It was clear that Lin Ye had noticed the unfair treatment they were receiving and had spoken up for them.

If Lin Ye hadn’t asked about the qualifications needed to reincarnate, they would probably have just watched Lin Ye, the latecomer, go into the City of Light for the transformation ahead of them.

Moreover, even if that happened, they would only be envious of Lin Ye and perhaps not even dare to complain.

Who knows, if their complaints were overheard by those priests, they might be punished to wait even longer.

With no other option, they could only endure in silence.

In fact, during this period, there were attempts to offer more money in exchange for an opportunity to reincarnate, but the prices set by those priests were absolutely outrageous.

Except for a few wealthy ones who paid and smoothly entered the City of Light, the rest could only wait here; the exorbitant price was something they simply couldn’t afford.

Also, they had to come over here at regular times every day, dryly waiting.

If they didn’t come, those priests might pretend not to recognize them, forcing them to wait all over again.

In reality, their treatment was far more torturous than what the people present could see...

This is why they were so grateful to Lin Ye.

By doing this, Lin Ye was undoubtedly offending the Church Court, but he still helped them without hesitation.

He didn’t fear offending the Church Court; if it were someone else, they probably wouldn’t bother meddling in such matters, which could invite trouble.

"Brother Gu, I’ll go for transformation first."

Lin Ye said to Marshal Gu.

"Alright! I’m here waiting for you!" Marshal Gu waved his hand, looking like he was eager to see the show.

"Good."

Lin Ye nodded, then turned toward the Holy Hall not far away.

It must be said that the Church Court indeed had deep pockets, as the building of the Holy Hall was extremely grand. Merely the corridor leading to its main door had two-way passages at least ten meters wide, all paved with pure white marble.

In the middle of the corridor, every ten meters or so, there was a white stone pillar that required two people to embrace.

On top of them were sculptures of the Twelve Saints, each intricately carved and wonderfully magnificent.

It was evident that these sculptures were the handiwork of master-level artisans with top-notch skills.

Just this passage alone must have cost an incredible amount to build.

And in the distance, the Holy Hall was even more grand and majestic, causing a person standing in front of it to feel mysteriously small.

"Go ahead! But remember, without a special artifact in your hands, don’t choose a special transition path. Just proceed with your profession’s Second Transformation, otherwise if you fail the transition, the City of Light will reject you, and you’ll have to wait at least half a year to potentially re-enter."

Though Qin Doufeng had a sour face, he still offered advice.

Certainly, the reason he mentioned this was, firstly due to his duty, and secondly, to prevent the Church Court’s reputation from being tarnished due to such issues.

If someone chose the wrong profession for their transition, it wouldn’t be the Church Court making it difficult for them but the ’City of Light’ itself rejecting them, preventing entry for at least another half a year.

"Thank you, sir, for informing us!"

"Many thanks, sir!"

The reincarnators all gasped in relief.

The odds of success, they always have them.

Evidently, a few people were thinking about trying their luck, wondering if they could also get into a special transition task, instead of just accepting their profession’s standard Second Transformation path.

After all, a special profession is undoubtedly stronger than the initial profession.

However, Qin Doufeng’s reminder now dissuaded many from taking such reckless chances.

Seeing these people expressing gratitude, Qin Doufeng had a strange expression on his face but just turned his head away, putting on a cold facade.

Lin Ye couldn’t help but find Qin Doufeng a bit amusing.

This guy, truly a tsundere!

Nonetheless, being someone who would first inform reincarnators of the important points was rare within the Church Court.

Had it been those previous priests, they likely wouldn’t have told these things to the reincarnators, instead blaming them for overestimating themselves in trying the special transition routes.

Furthermore, there wouldn’t be any way to refute it, leaving you no choice but to swallow your grievances and endure!

Lin Ye walked on the path toward the Holy Hall.

The group dare not walk ahead of Lin Ye, following his lead instead.

Those who wanted to watch the excitement were blocked by the Church Court soldiers.

"The area ahead is not open to the public, you’re not allowed to enter!"

Under the soldiers’ warning, these curious onlookers had no choice but to retreat regretfully.

"President Gu, are you going inside?" Qin Doufeng asked Marshal Gu.

Despite being slightly irked by Marshal Gu earlier, Qin Doufeng still asked out of politeness.

"No, I’ll just wait here." Marshal Gu’s tone was far less confrontational than before.

Given that Qin Doufeng had reprimanded the priests and demanded penalties in front of so many people earlier, Marshal Gu looked at him with newfound respect.

He was definitely stronger than those priests who only knew how to throw their weight around.

Seeing Marshal Gu’s response, Qin Doufeng didn’t continue talking.

He had no intention of entering the Holy Hall, so he stayed there to wait.

"Do you think Lin Ye might have a way to transition into a special profession?"

"That would be difficult, wouldn’t it? Isn’t it said that the special paths of the Holy Light Profession are all controlled by the Church Court?"

"So, isn’t he limited to his profession’s Second Transformation?"

"Heh... surely you don’t look down on someone just because they can only take their profession’s Second Transformation, do you?"

"Not at all, it’s just a pity."

"Hmm... what you said makes sense, it is indeed a bit of a shame."

The onlookers were all discussing.

Marshal Gu sat in a chair brought by the priests, looking composed.

He was curious, after all, about whether Lin Ye could only proceed with the profession’s Second Transformation...

Although the vast majority of Professionals could only follow their profession’s Second Transformation paths, if everyone managed to take other paths, then special professions wouldn’t be special anymore.

Nevertheless, the profession’s Second Transformation is undoubtedly quite ordinary.

In terms of potential, it couldn’t be compared to special professions.

Especially for someone like Lin Ye, who already had high potential, transitioning to a special profession would be even more advantageous.

Marshal Gu maintained a calm expression, yet he sighed inwardly.

The probability of Lin Ye transitioning to a special profession was extremely low because the special artifacts required for transitioning were held by the Church Court.

And how could the Church Court possibly hand over such important items to Lin Ye?

Amidst the speculations of the waiting crowd, Lin Ye stepped through the threshold of the Holy Hall first.

His figure completely vanished behind a curtain of light...
