Spiritual Veins (Seeking Recommendations and Collections)

Chapter 4: Spiritual Vein (Please Recommend, Please Bookmark)

Mu Yuan still could not sense Spiritual Energy.

Mu Chen had been expelled from the Spiritual Road.

Everyone held strong prejudices against Mu Chen, believing he had merely been lucky to obtain the qualification for the Spiritual Road and lacked any real talent.

"By the way, let me tell you something else. Three days ago, when Brother Liu Yang was tested..."

Liu Che laughed with schadenfreude, but before he could finish, Mu Yuan cut him off.

"Stop showing off there. So what if you discovered you have a Spiritual Vein? It's just a mere Human Grade Spiritual Vein. Is it really worth all that?"

"I'm just afraid that in the end, he'll try to steal a chicken only to lose the rice."

Mu Yuan's disdainful words flushed Liu Che's face red with anger.

"A mere Human Grade Spiritual Vein? Do you even know what it means?"

"That guy has been hiding it deep enough."

Tong Guan only took Mu Yuan for a clueless novice in cultivation, then looked at Mu Chen with pity.

No wonder Liu Yang dared to speak so openly. So he was confident of victory. This Mu Chen was about to be in trouble.

After the Academy Trial, even the reputation of the East Courtyard would plummet.

"Yeah, Brother Yuan, that's a Human Grade Spiritual Vein!"

Su Ling and the others' expressions changed drastically.

In the entire Northern Spiritual Academy, the number of students with Spiritual Veins would not exceed the fingers on one hand.

"Even if we believe in Brother Mu Chen's strength, facing Liu Yang, who possesses a Spiritual Vein, his chances really aren't high."

Su Ling and the others felt Liu Yang was simply bullying people.

And wasn't Brother Yuan's approach just pushing Mu Chen into a pit of fire?

"It's just one Human Vein. There's really no need to make a fuss."

Mu Yuan remained disdainful at heart.

Spiritual Veins were divided into three grades: Heaven, Earth, and Human. They provided considerable benefits for cultivation. Generally speaking, those with Spiritual Veins cultivated much faster than ordinary people.

And the God Grade Spiritual Vein was superior even to the Heaven Grade Spiritual Vein.

As it happened, he and Mu Chen possessed God Veins.

"Making a fuss?"

Liu Che was furious.

That was a Human Vein! In Mu Yuan's eyes, it was so unworthy of mention.

"Brother Liu Yang himself is at the initial stage of the Spiritual Movement Realm. If you add a Human Grade Spiritual Vein, I'm afraid even a Heaven Grade student at the mid Spiritual Movement Realm would find it hard to defeat him."

"Of course, the terror of Spiritual Veins goes far beyond that."

"Since you look down on Brother Liu Yang, then you take Mu Chen's place on the day of the Academy Trial."

Liu Che challenged.

"Fine, I will."

Mu Yuan just happened to want to test the power of a God Vein, to see if it was as legendary.

Liu Che sneered coldly.

If Mu Yuan wanted to court death, no one was to blame.

But the next second, Tong Guan's words startled him.

"Liu Che, don't fall for his trick again. Have you forgotten Brother Liu Yang's words?"

"He knows Mu Chen is no match for Brother Liu Yang, so he's deliberately stirring things up."

Liu Che's heart pounded with alarm. He had almost ruined Brother Liu Yang's plans.

Thinking of this, he looked at Mu Yuan with eyes full of rage.

"Mu Yuan, so this was your real goal. The two of you brothers singing in duet—truly a fine scheme."

Su Ling and the others, upon hearing this, looked at Mu Yuan with eyes full of admiration.

Brother Yuan, so we misunderstood you.

"Seriously? What's with that look?"

"I really didn't think of any of that. I just purely wanted to experience Liu Yang's strength."

Mu Yuan was speechless.

He truly admired the imagination of these two.

What a mess of nonsense.

"Too bad, your scheme has been seen through by Brother Tong."

Liu Che turned his head to look at Mu Chen, his voice cold:

"Mu Chen, I won't waste words with you. Brother Liu Yang said that if you don't dare to accept, it's fine—just don't show up that day, and he won't make things difficult for you."

If Mu Chen truly dared not appear that day, he would be a turtle shrinking into its shell, and his reputation in the East Courtyard would shatter in an instant.

"Your West Courtyard is going too far. Mu Chen, don't agree to him."

The sudden rebuke startled everyone.

Turning around, they saw a dozen figures approaching quickly, led by a tall, slender girl dressed in ink-black robes.

In terms of beauty, she was in no way inferior to Hong Ling.

At that moment, the girl's pretty face carried a hint of coldness as she looked at Tong Guan and the others, while those behind her also wore unfriendly expressions.

"Sister Qian'er, this isn't our fault. Who told those two brothers not to know how to keep their heads down?"

Liu Che said nonchalantly.

"You!"

Tang Qian'er flared up and was about to step forward, but Mu Yuan grasped her slender wrist and said to Liu Che:

"Go back and tell Liu Yang: if he wants to fight Xiao Mu, it's not impossible—we'll see if he even gets the chance."

"Mu Yuan, what trick are you trying to pull now?"

Liu Che had already been tripped up by Mu Yuan twice; this guy was good at sophistry, able to drag you into a pit with just a few words.

"I'm serious. On the day of the Academy Trial, Liu Yang's opponent will be me. If he can defeat me, then he'll have the right to challenge Xiao Mu."

Mu Yuan said earnestly.

At these words, everyone was stunned.

"Mu Yuan, are you serious?"

Liu Che asked again.

"Of course."

"If you don't believe me, ask Xiao Mu."

Mu Yuan pointed at Mu Chen.

If he remembered correctly, on the day of the Academy Trial, Liu Yang would carry a Spirit Breaking Bead to ensure a one hundred percent victory.

That was a good item, not easy to obtain even with the influence of the Mu Domain.

Mu Chen glanced at Mu Yuan, then nodded, a brilliant smile spreading across his youthful face:

"Do as my brother said. Go back and tell Liu Yang exactly that."

"Fine!"

"Mu Yuan, I just hope you don't regret it later."

Liu Che could imagine that when Liu Yang heard this, he would surely fly into a rage, venting all his anger on Mu Yuan.

This was clearly an insult to Liu Yang, implying that he was inferior to Mu Chen.

Liu Che, Tong Guan, and the others left one after another. Hong Ling also gave Mu Yuan a deep look before turning away.

"Brother Yuan, were you joking just now? Is this a strategy between you and Brother Mu Chen?"

Su Ling looked at the departing Tong Guan and the others, his voice tinged with worry.

Liu Yang possessed a spiritual vein; even Mu Chen would find it extremely tricky to face him.

Let alone Mu Yuan.

"You're all so foolish! They were clearly provoking you just now—you could have simply ignored it."

"And you, Mu Yuan, you're too reckless."

Tang Qian'er fumed in frustration. Seeing Mu Yuan's indifferent expression, she stomped her foot in anger, then shot a fierce glare at Mu Chen:

"Mu Chen, you're just as bad. Your brother is being reckless, and you follow along."

"Sister Qian'er, don't worry. My brother is a smart man; he never acts without reason. We know what we're doing."

Mu Chen said with a smile.

Tang Qian'er furrowed her delicate brows, quite displeased with the two brothers:

"Know what you're doing, my foot! Mu Yuan isn't even in the Sensing Realm yet. How will he fight Liu Yang? He can't even block a single move from him."

"Sister Qian'er, you seem quite concerned about my brother?"

Mu Chen looked at her annoyed, pretty face and couldn't help but chuckle.

Sister Qian'er and Hong Ling were known as the two academy flowers of the Northern Spiritual Academy, with countless suitors.

But they never gave those suitors the time of day, yet they always looked at Brother Yuan differently.

Brother Yuan really had a way with women!

A charming figure also flashed through Mu Chen's mind.

"The Spiritual Road should be ending soon. I wonder which of the Five Great Academies she'll choose?"

"I couldn't care less whether he lives or dies."

Tang Qian'er's pretty face flushed slightly as she shot Mu Chen a glare, then fixed her eyes on Mu Yuan:

"Don't misunderstand. I'm just worried you'll get beaten half to death and disgrace our East Courtyard."

"Have a little faith in me, alright?"

"Actually, I never told you—I'm really a cultivation genius!"

"The Sensing Realm? For me, that's just a matter of minutes."

Mu Yuan shook his head, clasped his hands behind his back, and strode forward with a swagger that acknowledged no one.

The next moment, his aura erupted with explosive force, leaving everyone gasping for breath!
