Xiao Yi Xian did not blame herself like some saintly fool over Wu Yong casually wiping out the Poison Scorpion Sect, thinking that so many people had died because of her.
Xiao Yi Xian was no saint. She was an ordinary young girl, and her heart was small—small enough to hold only Wu Yong.
As long as Wu Yong was fine, nothing else mattered.
Since the Poison Scorpion Sect had been destroyed, they should look for the reasons within themselves. Why had her A Yong only acted against the Poison Scorpion Sect and not anyone else?
In the end, wasn't it because there was something wrong with the Poison Scorpion Sect?
Forget facts and all that. Women had never been reasonable creatures...
Especially when she watched Wu Yong help her process the materials for brewing poison and even prepare the poisons for her, Xiao Yi Xian was deeply moved.
So when it came time to swallow the poison, the moved Xiao Yi Xian gulped it all down in huge mouthfuls.
[Diode] activated, and her cultivation surged at a tremendous rate.
That said, a boyfriend concocting poison for his girlfriend to eat did sound a little strange...
Time passed bit by bit, and Wu Yong returned to his regular cultivation routine.
Aside from their monthly dates, he would occasionally feed the remaining Earth Fire Lotus Seeds and Companion Amethyst Source to the Little Snake around his wrist.
Since all the high-level magical beasts within ten thousand li of the academy had been cleared out, the two ruthless bandits had stopped causing trouble and quietly cultivated inside the Tianfen Qi Refining Tower.
With the Inner Academy's Great Demon King and Great Demon Emperor both quietly cultivating, no one else could stir up much trouble.
The previous batch of new students had been in the Inner Academy for over half a year and had begun to settle in.
Now, they were all looking forward to the next batch of newcomers arriving so they could collect another round of newcomer tribute fees.
As a white entry surfaced in Wu Yong's mind, the new year's Inner Academy Selection Tournament began.
Wu Yong silently estimated the time. In a few days, Little Fairy would arrive at the Inner Academy, and he would have to go pick her up.
Only then did Wu Yong come back to his senses and look at the white entry he had just drawn.
[Twenty-Five Yuan Five Five-Yuan Coupons] (White Common): You can spend twenty-five yuan to purchase five five-yuan coupons.
"..."
Wu Yong's face darkened. What the hell was this? Even among white entries, this one was utterly worthless.
Although the chance of drawing a white entry was still ninety percent, the odds of getting one this completely useless should have been less than ten percent, right?
Even another Night Owl entry would have been fine. At least Wu Yong could stay up later, which would have been fairly useful.
This... Twenty-Five Yuan Five Five-Yuan Coupons—wasn't this just taking off your pants to fart, completely unnecessary?
What, were you bloated or something?
"Ugh, I hope that once I break through to Dou Emperor and lower the odds of white entries again, I can draw a couple of useful ones."
Wu Yong was not asking for entries with some great use. He did not even dare hope for a Golden Legend on the level of [Son of Wind]. A few more green entries would do.
It had to be said, falling in love made people perverted... made their mentality change.
Before meeting Xiao Yi Xian, Wu Yong would never have complained about something like this. He would have simply accepted it calmly.
But now, Wu Yong's emotional fluctuations were becoming increasingly obvious, and he seemed more and more like a nineteen-year-old boy.
"No, I'm already nineteen. I should be considered a young man now."
Just as the now-young Wu Yong was about to stand up, a peculiar sensation suddenly came from within his body.
He hurriedly took out a crystal from his Storage Ring and sent Xiao Yi Xian a message: "Little Fairy, I'm about to break through. I might not be able to pick you up. Sorry."
Then Wu Yong immediately entered a cultivation state. This was a breakthrough from the peak of Dou Wang to Dou Emperor. He naturally could not afford to be careless with such a major realm breakthrough.
Other than feeling somewhat regretful that he might not be able to welcome Little Fairy into the Inner Academy, nothing else mattered.
He was not worried that the newcomers being bullied upon entering the Inner Academy would happen to Little Fairy.
The cultivation speed of the Woeful Poison Body was no exaggeration.
Even though Wu Yong was the Son of Wind, when faced with the Woeful Poison Body going all out, he could not compare to that soaring breakthrough speed.
"This is truly rare. A Woeful Poison Body actually no longer harms its owner?!"
"The quality of this year's students is truly excellent!"
"Hehe, then I'll have to trouble you two elders to activate the Spatial Lock."
That was why people needed to live longer. Once you had lived long enough, you could witness all kinds of rare things.
The two Guardians of Jia Nan Academy had their eyes opened today. The Woeful Poison Body, a constitution destined to spiral out of control, could now actually be controlled and no longer harmed its owner. This was truly unprecedented!
After explaining the precautions for this year's top five to enter the Library Pavilion, the Vice Dean also stared at Xiao Yi Xian's retreating figure in surprise.
"That little girl is actually the legendary, terrifying Woeful Poison Body? But she doesn't look like one..."
So he used Dou Qi to transmit his voice to the two elders.
"You two elders, could you have mistaken it? That girl isn't showing any of the Woeful Poison Body's signs of losing control. She shouldn't be a genuine Woeful Poison Body, right?"
"She is a genuine Woeful Poison Body, except it has become controllable. We've lived for so many years—could we possibly be wrong?"
"Exactly. Little Hu Gan, you're still too young..."
"How could that constitution possibly become controllable? It's a terrifying constitution that can even poison its own owner to death... Yet her cultivation speed is indeed absurdly fast. Could there really be some method that resolves the Woeful Poison Body's flaw without affecting its advantages?"
The Vice Dean was completely baffled. He truly could not understand what kind of method could achieve such a thing.
He began recalling information about that little girl. Suddenly, someone who had left an extremely deep impression on him came to mind.
"Come at me together. I don't want to waste time here."
"How could ten days each be enough? I'll give him a hundred days!"
"..."
"But if it's that kid, then it isn't impossible."
Hu Gan naturally knew that the high-level magical beasts around the academy had been thoroughly cleared out, and he also knew who had done it.
Since that kid possessed such formidable strength, it was not impossible for him to make the Woeful Poison Body controllable.
Hu Gan slowly nodded, wearing an expression that said, I understand everything now.
Seeing Hu Gan like this, the two Guardians beside him grew curious. "Little Hu Gan, have you thought of who did it?"
"Yes, indeed."
"...Then say it!"
"Hehe, no rush, no rush."
An hour later, Xiao Yi Xian and the other four emerged from the Library Pavilion.
The five of them vaguely sensed that the atmosphere between the Vice Dean and the two Guardians was somewhat strange.
However, they had all obtained something they were satisfied with today, so they had no mind to investigate matters between their elders.
Two days later, a new round of the Fire Energy Hunting Competition was about to begin. The participants from both sides had already entered the venue and were listening to an elder explain the rules of this unique competition.
