The demonic ape's giant fist collided with Yun Li's small fist. Yun Li showed no reaction, but the demonic ape's fist instantly made a cracking sound as if bones were being broken, and then...

The entire monster was launched like a cannonball and crashed into the cliff face.

It even caused the cliffs to collapse, and for a moment the entire back mountain was shaking violently.

"Solve."

Even if she held back, she still managed to knock out the monster with just one punch, without needing a second one.

"As expected of Yun Li, she's amazing."

Seeing the demonic ape's fate, Zhiyan was quite happy; the guy who had bullied her had finally been dealt with.

"Let's go find Earth's core milk."

Yun Li didn't care about that; all she wanted to do right now was drink that Earth Core Milk.

"Oh oh."

Zhiyan realized what was happening and quickly flew with Yunli towards the Earth's core milk.

After passing through the ice-covered canyon, the two soon arrived at a space inside a rock formation. Zhiyan easily found the place by following the scent.

These are all.

Looking at the small pool in front of me, the milky white Earth Milk smelled wonderful, and the ancient pillars were still slowly dripping milk droplets.

Yun Li's body instantly appeared at the edge of the small pool. This pool of Body Tempering Earth Milk probably took hundreds of millions of years to condense.

Yun Li grabbed a lump of Earth Core Milk from the void and put it into her mouth without any hesitation.

"How about it?"

Zhiyan stood to the side, asking curiously.

"The flavor is a bit weak; it would taste even better if it were stronger."

As she spoke, Yun Li looked up and remembered that these should only be the fragments of the Body Tempering Earth Milk, not the real Earth Core Milk.

The real Earth's core milk is inside the stone pillars above.

"Is that so? I'll give it a try."

Zhiyan immediately took a sip and found it quite good.

Just as Zhiyan was about to say something, she noticed that Yunli suddenly stood in mid-air, appearing next to the stone above.

"Yun Li, what are you doing?"

"Find the real Earth's core milk."

As she spoke, Yun Li made a cut in the stone in front of her, without completely destroying it, as there was no need to damage its foundation. She then took a portion of the Earth Core Milk.

Then let it continue to condense...

As the opening was cut open, an even richer aroma of frankincense wafted into my nose and mouth, far more fragrant than anything in the small pool below.

Yun Li didn't stand on ceremony and directly took away 99% of the real Earth Core Milk inside, leaving only 1%.

"This..."

Seeing the Earth Core Milk that Yun Li had taken out, which was clearly more precious, Zhiyan's eyes widened. There really was such a thing; she hadn't even noticed it.

It tastes even better than the ones below!

"This tastes the best."

Upon receiving it, Yun Li immediately took a bite and felt very satisfied.

However, if others saw this, they would definitely beat their chests in disbelief. With such a good thing, others would use it drop by drop.

Where else would you drink it in one big gulp like Yun Li?

After taking a few sips, Yun Li didn't forget to share some with Zhiyan. Then, she filled most of the Earth Core Milk in the small pool below before the two of them left.

Looking at the sky, it was getting late. Considering that Zhiyan had taken almost all the good things from her Remembrance...

This treasure hunt has finally come to an end...

In the days that followed, after her perfect treasure hunting experience, Zhiyan seemed to become addicted. For many days afterward, she would drag Yunli along to hunt for treasure and bully those magical beasts.

However, this period of time did not last long, since Yun Li did not intend to stay here indefinitely.

After learning about Gu Xun'er's situation, Yun Li packed her things and prepared to go to the outer courtyard with Little Fairy Doctor.

When she learned that Yun Li and Little Fairy Doctor were leaving the inner courtyard, and that she had no other friends there and had already found most of the good stuff, she insisted on leaving with Yun Li and the others.

After consulting with Great Elder Su Qian, the two decided to bring Zhiyan along.

After all, given her talent for treasure hunting, it shouldn't be wasted.

Chapter 56: Even more beautiful than the Goddess Hatsune?

"This is the outer courtyard, it's nothing like the inner courtyard, and it's not fun at all..."

Upon arriving at the outer courtyard of the Jia Nan Academy, Zhiyan stood with her hands on her hips, not quite understanding why Yunli had come here.

It's not as interesting as the inner academy, and Jia Nan Academy itself doesn't really value the outer academy, so the students' qualifications are mostly uneven.

"I won't be staying for long."

Yun Li carried Old Iron on her back and walked towards the residence of the outer academy elder.

Her purpose in coming here was solely to obtain the strange fire within the body of that young lady from the ancient clan.

Of course, it's also partly about collecting stamps and getting to know those familiar names from my Remembrance. After all, since I'm here, it feels like something's missing if I don't get to know them.

At this point in time, apart from Xiao Huohuo, Gu Xun'er, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Mei are all enrolled in this academy.

Especially Gu Xun'er, with her strength, entering the inner courtyard would have been a piece of cake, but she stayed in the outer courtyard for two years just to wait for Xiao Huohuo.

"The highest level of strength is only at the Dou Shi level, and many are not even at the Dou Shi level. Why is there such a big gap between them and the Inner Academy?"

Little Fairy Doctor glanced at the students not far away. They were also students of the Jia Nan Academy, but there were several of them who had achieved the rank of Battle Spirit in the inner courtyard, but here... she didn't see a single one who had achieved the rank of Great Battle Master.

"The best ones naturally go to the inner courtyard. Besides, the outer courtyard doesn't have Qi Refining Tower to help students accelerate their cultivation."

However, for this reason, the admission requirements for the School of Foreign Languages are very low, and many talented people can apply to the Jia Nan Academy.

However, to become an inner court student, one must go through layers of selection.

There are only about twenty people each year.

It's fair to say that the vast majority of the Jia Nan Academy's resources are invested in its inner courtyard. But that's just how the world is; without talent and strength, no one will take care of you.

Just as Yun Li and her two companions were touring the outer courtyard and heading towards the elders' residence, three girls dressed in outer courtyard uniforms walked towards them along a path not far ahead.

The girl in the middle, in particular, is quite pretty, with a pure yet alluring look and a slender figure; she's definitely a little beauty.

"Xiao Mei, you have no idea how funny those two men were yesterday."

"Yeah, look at themselves! They're nothing but trash from the gutter, yet they dare to pursue Xiao Xun'er... It's hilarious! Xun'er completely ignores them and is now pursuing you Xiao Mei..."

"I made a sarcastic remark to them, and those guys got really angry and started spreading rumors everywhere... They're probably still lying there now."

Two female students followed Xiao Mei, talking to her about what happened yesterday. Their tone clearly showed their disdain for the boys who had no self-awareness and still came to pursue Xiao Mei Gu Xun'er.

If we're talking about who the most popular girl in the outer courtyard of the Jia Nan Academy is, then without a doubt it's Gu... no, now it should be called Xiao Xun'er.

However, this young lady was never interested in the sycophants around her, such as Fei Yangyang and the goblins; her heart belonged only to one person.

"Don't even mention those clowns, Xun'er looks down on them, but it's like our Sister Mei would look down on them..."

The girl next to Xiao Mei noticed her expression and quickly changed the subject.

Xiao Mei, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Xun'er are all seen as members of the same family, but Xiao Mei and Xiao Xun'er don't seem to have a very friendly relationship.

Indeed, no matter who it is, when facing Xiao Xun'er, who is known as the number one Goddess, even if they don't want to admit it, they are still ashamed of themselves.

"If you want to pursue Xiao Mei, you'd be better off with Senior Bai Shan instead."

"It's a pity that Senior Bai Shan only likes Xun'er, while that young lady only has that student who hasn't reported for duty yet, I think his name is Xiao Huohuo, right? He's also your cousin, Xiao Mei?"

"Xiao Mei, could you tell me about Xiao Huohuo, the one Xun'er is so fond of? What kind of person is he? How could he make a proud girl like Xun'er fall for him?"

Upon hearing Xiao Huohuo, the two girls couldn't help but ask Xiao Mei about it out of curiosity.

They had known each other for a while, but Xiao Mei, as Xiao Huohuo's cousin, rarely mentioned Xiao Huohuo, so neither of them knew what kind of person he was.

"I'm not very familiar with him... so please don't ask me."

Hearing this question, Xiao Mei was clearly not happy, and subconsciously avoided mentioning Xiao Huohuo, so naturally she wouldn't bring it up.

"Oh, that's a real shame."

Seeing Xiao Mei say this, the two women had no choice but to sigh regretfully.

"Hurry up, the tutoring session is about to start."

After giving the two a brief reminder, Xiao Mei quickened her pace. Here, her strength had improved far faster than when she was in the Xiao family.

But there were many people in the college similar to her, which made her seem very ordinary. After realizing her situation, she gradually lost her pride.

In terms of cultivation, I have become much more down-to-earth.

Her two best friends quickened their pace upon hearing this, but before they had gone far, Xiao Mei suddenly noticed Yun Li and the other two ahead.

The appearance of Yun Li and the other two in this outer courtyard still stood out and attracted some attention, especially Yun Li, who was so small, yet carried such a large Heavy Xuan Ruler on her back.

"Xiao... Xiao Huohuo ..."

For a fleeting moment, Xiao Mei mistook the figure carrying the heavy ruler/sword for Xiao Huohuo.

But after regaining her senses, she realized she was seeing things. How could this little girl be her cousin?

How could I have misread this? Am I being too sensitive?

Xiao Mei rubbed her eyes. Xiao Mei had very complicated feelings about her cousin, especially now that his talent had returned.

"Who are they? Are they new students? They're all so cute and pretty."

"I don't know. I'll ask the senior students later; maybe they know."

"That white-haired girl seems to be just as good as Xun'er, her junior."

"Why do I feel like she's even prettier than Goddess Xun'er? Is the number one Goddess of the academy about to change?"

"The two little girls next to me are also super cute. They're so pretty at such a young age. I wonder how beautiful they'll be when they grow up."

If it were the original Little Fairy Doctor, she naturally couldn't compare to the first female lead, Gu Xun'er. However, after awakening the E'nan Toxin Body and undergoing a transformation with Abundance Divine Power, Little Fairy Doctor now even slightly surpasses Gu Xun'er in terms of appearance.

However, their styles and temperaments are different, so it's impossible to definitively say who will win.

Xiao Mei's two best friends watched the three approaching and began to whisper amongst themselves, a hint of inferiority flashing through their hearts.

Before coming to the academy, I thought I was quite charming, but after meeting one beautiful Goddess after another, that confidence has long since disappeared.

"..."

Yun Li brushed past Xiao Mei, and only stopped after taking a few steps, turning her head to look at Xiao Mei's figure.

Yun Li overheard their conversation.

Only then did I realize that this young girl was Xiao Huohuo, Xiao Mei's cousin.

However, after thinking about it, Yun Li decided not to go and get to know her. She seemed so ordinary! Although she was a pretty girl, she was just so-so.

In addition, her story is not very likable.

It's worth noting that before Xiao Huohuo's three-year period of being a useless person, Xiao Mei actually liked him very much; her relationship with Xiao Huohuo was no less than that with Xiao Xun'er.

However, people are realistic. After Xiao Huohuo became a useless person, she began to distance herself from him. It wasn't until Xiao Huohuo regained his reputation as a genius that she wanted to restore their relationship.

However, because he had already hurt Xiao Huohuo, he was directly ignored and disdained by her.

It wasn't until Xiao Huohuo came to terms with things later that she became much gentler towards him, but it was still not as intimate as before.

However, as a member of Xiao Huohuo's clan, her future achievements are still quite promising. After Xiao Huohuo advances to Dou Di, the bloodline of the Xiao Clan's Dou Di will be activated, and their strength will at least reach the level of Dou Sheng.

This is the principle of "when one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."

"What's wrong, Yunli?"
