The two students signed a life-and-death contract during the Outer Courtyard competition,

Such a big thing had happened,

Even if the students were seriously injured,

It was impossible for them to be perfunctory and not be punished.

At that time, Ling Danzi had just arrived at the Dean's place,

He planned to tell the Dean about Ren Zhiling's progress,

He did not expect to receive a notice that a freshman was seriously injured in the Outer Courtyard competition but refused to give up,

The two of them even signed a life-and-death contract.

When he and the Dean arrived at the square, they saw the two people on the stage with fatal moves. The person who kept vomiting blood was actually the kid he had seen yesterday, "Fu Si".

Yesterday, he had thought that this was a simple kid. He did not expect him to be so brave. He could still maintain his composure in a disadvantageous situation and turn the tables in the end.

Although it was equivalent to exchanging a life for a life,

This kid was ruthless, whether it was to the enemy or to himself.

Ling Danzi had to admit that this kid was qualified to be Ren Zhiling's follower. As long as he did not die prematurely in the process of growing up,

He would also be a ruthless figure in the future.

Ling Danzi did not understand the specific situation at that time, so he had to protect Fu Nansi from being punished,

If his quota to enter the Inner Courtyard was revoked,

Ren Zhiling, this extroverted disciple, would be anxious with him.

He came to the Dean's place,

And found that many of the college's leaders were also there,

They were probably discussing how to deal with these two students.

"Teacher." Ling Danzi took the initiative to greet him.

The Dean's expression was not very good,

He nodded slightly at Ling Danzi. After such a thing happened,

No one would be in a good mood.

One of the elders said, "Dean,

This matter is very important,

These two students disregarded the college's rules,

They should be expelled according to the rules. "

Another elder retorted, "two students risked their lives on the stage for a quota to enter the Inner Courtyard, and in the end, you actually want them to withdraw?"

"If they don't withdraw, are they going to stay and let the students in the future follow suit?"

"Hehe, so you plan to make an example of them? The students' future is completely unimportant in your eyes?"

"Zhao Tuzi, could it be that you're afraid of the Zhang family?

Our Cangling College's rules are here. Even the children of the royal family who don't abide by them will be expelled! "

"Li Laoliu, you're slandering me!

Who does the Zhang Clan think they are? Since they dared to cause trouble in the academy, I'll give them a good spanking! "

The dean rubbed his swollen head. Cangling College was huge, and there were countless strong people, but not many of them had brains. Every single one of them wanted to solve problems with their fists.

His head hurt.

The Dean pointed at one of the higher-ups of the academy who had been there the entire time to understand the situation and said, "You tell us what you think."

Hearing this, everyone else shut their mouths.

One of the higher-ups said, "This matter isn't that simple. I suspect that Zhang Wei has taken a forbidden drug."

At the beginning of the match, although Fu Nansi did not have the upper hand, his opponent Zhang Wei's emotions were still considered normal. However, as he used his spiritual energy, Zhang Wei's emotions became more and more intense. Not only did he frequently mock his opponent, his attacks also became more and more vicious.

Hearing this higher-up's words, the two elders who were originally arguing had a thoughtful expression. If he really had taken a forbidden drug, then the nature of this matter was completely different.

Ling Danzi did not say a word. He was also there later and did not know what exactly happened, so he did not want to get involved. However, if he really wanted to expel Fu Nansi, then he would have to see if he would agree.

Moreover, if Zhang Wei really had taken a forbidden drug, then they would be able to find out with a simple check.

Everyone's gaze turned towards the dean. Just now, the dean had personally treated Zhang Wei's injuries. Whether or not Zhang Wei had taken a forbidden drug, the dean should know very well.

"Zhang Wei has taken a Blazing Flame Pill." The dean slowly said.

The Blazing Flame Pill was a pill that was officially banned in Cangling Country. Its medicinal properties were strong, and those who took it would have their spiritual energy increase explosively. They would have a violent personality, and the effects of the pill would amplify the most violent emotions in the martial artist's heart. It could even affect the martial artist's foundation.

Under normal circumstances, Zhang Wei, as the most pampered young master of the Zhang family, would not have voluntarily taken a forbidden drug that would harm his body.

The atmosphere was very tense. Although the Blazing Flame Pill was a forbidden drug, it was still used despite repeated prohibitions. Some martial artists even treated the Blazing Flame Pill as a life-saving pill. When necessary, they would be able to explode and fight for a glimmer of hope for survival.

Zhao Tuzi broke the deadlock with one sentence. "Dean, you are too evil. You already know what is going on, but you still watched me and Li Laoliu argue."

Li Laoliu heard this and said, "That's right. Taking a forbidden drug is not as simple as breaking the school rules. If we knew this would happen, we wouldn't have argued. Dean, you have really learned bad things."

Dean: "…" He really wanted to chase the two of them out. Just looking at them made him angry!

Ling Danzi secretly laughed. These two elders were the dean's followers. They were very strong, but they did not like to use their brains. If they could solve a problem with their martial arts, then they would not use their brains. Moreover, the two of them did not get along well and were always arguing.

Seeing the dean's cold gaze, Ling Danzi immediately hid his smile and pretended to be very serious.

Dean: A bunch of f * ckers!

Sometimes, the dean could not help but think about what these people would do if the school did not have him. Perhaps the thousand-year-old school that stood tall in the Cangling Mainland would be destroyed by these people.

After a while, the dean announced, "First, investigate the reason why Zhang Wei took the Blazing Flame Pill. If it is not intentional, then he will be expelled. No matter what the result is, Zhang Wei will have to compensate Fu Si for his treatment.

As for Fu Si … "

Before the dean could say anything, Ling Danzi suddenly coughed and winked at the dean, signaling for him to be lenient.

The dean paused and narrowed his eyes. He continued, "Although Fu Si violated the school rules, he will be lenient under special circumstances. He will be punished to clean the plaza for a month after he enters the inner courtyard."

Ling Danzi was relieved to hear this.

"Dong dong dong."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door and a teacher-like person appeared. He said, "Dean, Zhang Wei's family received the news and has arrived outside the school."

"Okay," the dean said to the leader who was present at the competition, "Go and explain this to the Zhang family. If they are deliberately hiding the truth, then let them bring Zhang Wei back."

"Yes, Dean."

The matter came to an end. The elders and leaders left one after another. Only the dean and Ling Danzi were left in the room.

The dean's tone was still calm. He said, "Ling Danzi, why are you siding with Fu Si?

If you dare to brush me off again, you will be sent to the outer courtyard tomorrow. "

Ling Danzi knew that he could not hide the truth anymore. He could only tell the truth, "That guy is Ling Ling's follower."

The dean did not expect this answer. In his heart, he was even more certain that disciples and followers were here to collect debts. He had cleaned up Ling Danzi's mess so many times. Now that he had a disciple, he finally understood how it felt.

"Fu Si … He has a strong character. Not bad," the dean said.

Ling Danzi said happily, "Yeah, Ling Ling has good taste."

The dean was speechless.

…

Fu Nansi slept very comfortably. His body was warm, as if he was lying in his mother's embrace. He had never enjoyed motherly love, so he was greedy for this feeling.

However, one would always wake up from a dream. Fu Nansi slowly opened his eyes.

He turned his head and saw Ren Zhiling sitting cross-legged not far from him, cultivating.

Fu Nansi pursed his dry lips. He wanted to ask Ren Zhiling to get him some water, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly coughed violently.

Ren Zhiling immediately opened his eyes and ran over when he heard the sound.

"Cough, cough, cough." Fu Nansi trembled in pain as he coughed.

Seeing Fu Nansi's face turn pale, Ren Zhiling said helplessly, "Don't speak. Teacher said that you can't move or speak for the next few days."

Fu Nansi did not dare to act rashly. He could only purse his lips tightly, hoping that Ren Zhiling could sense his thoughts.

Ren Zhiling was still young and did not have any experience in taking care of patients. When she saw this, she thought that Fu Nansi's wounds were hurting. She was anxious, but her tone became gentler. "Fu Nansi, I know that you've suffered a lot this time, but Teacher said that you've benefited from this disaster. The pill has nourished and improved your meridians. When you recover, your spiritual power will increase by a few levels."

Fu Nansi was helpless. As long as he did not move, the wound on his chest would not hurt, but he was very thirsty.

Fu Nansi could not help but stick out his tongue and lick his lips.

Ren Zhiling … Ren Zhiling quietly turned her head away. She did not dare to look at this extremely flirtatious action.

Fu Nansi was speechless.

In the end, he could not help but say, "Water …"

Ren Zhiling did not hear him clearly the first time. She only heard him the second time.

Her face immediately turned red. Patients would be thirsty when they woke up, but she had completely forgotten to give him water.

"Wait for me, I'll go get some water." Ren Zhiling ran away after saying this.

Fu Nansi looked at Ren Zhiling's back with a gentle gaze. It felt good to have someone by your side the moment you woke up.

Ren Zhiling ran out of the room and took out a kettle from the Lingzhu space. The kettle was filled with Lingquan. She gently moved her finger in the air and a flame appeared under the kettle.

The temperature of the kettle kept rising.

After the Lingquan water boiled, Ren Zhiling brewed a pot of Lingquan tea. After adjusting the temperature of the tea cup to the perfect temperature, she carried the teacup back to the inner room.

Fu Nansi could not move, so he could only lie down and drink the water. This was the first time Ren Zhiling fed someone water. Although she was very careful, some of the tea still flowed down his lips and chin to his neck.

Ren Zhiling gently wiped his face.

Fu Nansi felt the soft little hand on his chin. He felt that Ren Zhiling was too much. She first looked at his chest, then touched his face.

What an audacious little girl.

After finishing the cup of water, Fu Nansi licked his pale lips. His lips had a watery luster.

Ren Zhiling inexplicably felt that Fu Nansi was very attractive today. Even his delicate and pretty face looked more vivid.

"Rest well and don't worry about anything else. The teacher said that although you violated the school rules by signing a life and death contract with that person, you will be punished to sweep the square for a month."

"Also, the teacher and the dean praised you. They said that you are very good."

Ren Zhiling was very happy even though she was doing stand-up comedy alone. In the end, she was called away by Ling Danzi. She left Fu Nansi's room unwillingly.

In the alchemy room, Ling Danzi said to Ren Zhiling, "Eat the pills I gave you before."

Ren Zhiling had already successfully concocted third-grade pills. Moreover, the pills she concocted each time were better than the last.

Tomorrow's competition was not only related to the alchemist's ability to concoct pills, but also the speed at which they recovered their spiritual power.

An alchemist's recovery speed was directly proportional to their spiritual power level. If nothing went wrong, the pills he concocted would increase Ren Zhiling's spiritual power by one level.

"Yes, teacher."

Ren Zhiling swallowed the pill and the medicinal power was quickly absorbed.

When Ren Zhiling opened her eyes again, she was pleasantly surprised to find that her spiritual power had increased by two levels. She was now a level 25 Martial Master.

Before Ren Zhiling could thank Ling Danzi, he squinted his eyes and asked, "Do you like this guy called Fu Nansi?"

Ren Zhiling was so shocked that she almost kicked the alchemy furnace aside. She said in surprise, "Teacher, how could you have such thoughts!"

Ling Danzi couldn't be blamed for thinking so much. The main thing was that Ren Zhiling was taking care of Fu Nansi as if he was her lover. The two of them were at the age where love was first awakened. It wouldn't be strange if there was some ambiguity between them.

"Teacher, your thoughts are too impure!"

Looking at Ren Zhiling's disdainful gaze, Ling Danzi was so angry that he wanted to blow his beard. However, his beard had been shaved off a few days ago. He didn't even have the chance to blow his beard!

"This old man hasn't looked at a woman for a hundred years. How dare you say this old man's thoughts are impure!"

A few days after meeting the Dean, Ling Danzi no longer looked like an old man because he didn't look like an old man anymore. Now, he was so angry at Ren Zhiling that he even used the term "old man" again.

"Teacher … Just because you haven't looked at a woman doesn't mean your thoughts are impure."

Ren Zhiling said slowly. She felt that Ling Danzi was really scary. He hadn't looked at a woman for a hundred years. No wonder he was so angry every day.

Ling Danzi couldn't help but feel angry at Ren Zhiling. He regretted that he shouldn't have said so much just now.

"You … you should stay here and refine pills. Fourth Fu isn't your lover. There's no need to keep watching over him. You still have a competition tomorrow. If you don't perform well, don't blame me for being rude!" Ling Danzi left very proudly after saying this.

When Ren Zhiling arrived at the plaza the next day, she found out that even though such a bloody incident had occurred yesterday morning, the Outer Court Tournament still had to continue. In the afternoon, Zhang Yan and Wei Zhuo had competed, and Wei Zhuo had won.

In today's finals, Fu Nansi and Wei Zhou would compete for first place. Zhang Wei and Zhang Yan would compete for third place. Because Fu Nansi and Zhang Wei couldn't participate in the competition, Wei Zhou and Zhang Yan won without a fight.

Zhang Yan successfully entered the Inner Yard.

Ren Zhiling was sincerely happy for Zhang Yan.

Not long after, Zhang Yan found Ren Zhiling in the crowd. He hurriedly asked, "How's Fourth Brother?

I wanted to leave with you yesterday, but your teacher was too fast. I couldn't keep up. "

"Fourth Brother is fine now. You don't have to worry," Ren Zhiling said with a smile. "Zhang Yan, congratulations on entering the Inner Yard."

Zhang Yan didn't smile. He was still worried about Fu Nansi. He didn't have any friends. Fu Nansi was the only one who didn't despise him for being a fool (?)

Didn't despise him for being a chatterbox (?)

Was willing to be friends with him (?)

A man.

Ren Zhiling saw his worry and comforted him. "He's really fine now. My teacher personally helped him refine pills. It's a blessing in disguise."

"I see." The worry on Zhang Yan's face lessened slightly.

"When I finish today's competition, I'll take you to see him tonight."

"Ren Zhiling, thank you."

"No problem. Fourth Brother must be very happy to see you."

Fu Nansi: "…"

Not long after, the Pill Master Competition officially began. There were less than twenty people participating. In Cangling College, where geniuses gathered, the number of people who could meet a Pill Master was very small.

In the first round, the participating students were required to refine a level one pill within an hour. Those who succeeded would enter the next round.

After the first round, less than five people were eliminated. There were twelve people who entered the second round.

The participating students were given a total of two hours to rest and recover.

After two hours, the second round officially began. The students were required to refine a level two pill within an hour. Those who succeeded would enter the next round.

In the second round, the students were given an extra hour to refine pills. This meant that those who failed the first time would have time to refine pills a second time.

Ren Zhiling passed the second round of the exam very steadily.

Including Ren Zhiling, there were only three people who could participate in the next round. All three of them were level three Pill Masters.

The competition did not continue. It was lunchtime and the next round would begin in four hours.

After lunch, Ren Zhiling did not return to the inner courtyard to rest. Instead, she returned to the outer courtyard where she had stayed for only one night to meditate.

She did not expect to see Wei Zhou in black when she returned to the dormitory. He only knew how to cultivate in his room all day long. His lips curled into a stiff smile. Then, he said to Ren Zhiling, "Good luck for the competition this afternoon."

Ren Zhiling: "…"

Even Zhang Yan received a smile from Wei Zhou.

Ren Zhiling was terrified. She knew that Wei Zhou had a strange personality. For this to happen, it could only mean that Wei Zhou approved of them. However, she did not need Wei Zhou's approval!

She only wanted Wei Zhou to treat her like she was invisible …

Before going upstairs, Wei Zhou suddenly thought of something and said, "Say hello to Fu Si for me."

Before Ren Zhiling could say anything, Zhang Yan answered first, "I'm going to visit Fu Si tonight. Do you want to come with me?"

Wei Zhou hesitated for three seconds before replying, "No, I'll see you in the inner courtyard in the future."

Ren Zhiling felt her vision go dark. Then, she floated back to her room.

…

During the competition in the afternoon, there were twice as many spectators as in the morning. Ren Zhiling noticed that Ling Danzi and the Dean were also in the square.

Ren Zhiling could not help but feel a little nervous. This feeling was similar to the college entrance examination, but it was different. At least, the invigilators of the college entrance examination did not know each other.

After the competition began, Ren Zhiling focused all her attention on the alchemy furnace in front of her.

First, she lit the fire. Then, she placed the spirit plants into the alchemy furnace in the same order as she did during practice. The timing was just right.

Then, she sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace and closed her eyes. Her fingers constantly moved, completely oblivious to what was happening outside.

Not long after, the alchemy furnace of the student sitting next to Ren Zhiling exploded. Even the other student opened his eyes to take a look. However, Ren Zhiling did not react at all. It was as if she did not hear anything.

Ling Danzi and the Dean nodded slightly when they saw this. The biggest taboo during alchemy was to not be focused. The slightest distraction could cause the furnace to explode.

"Teacher, just wait for Lingling's alchemy to shock you," Ling Danzi said proudly.

The Dean put on a fake smile. "If her alchemy doesn't shock me, then I'll shock you."

Ling Danzi's proud expression froze on her face. "Haha … Teacher, I was just joking."

"I don't think it's funny."
