Dinner Time
"The old dies, and the new immediately appears?" Lu Li wriggled in the Soul Space, while studying the experimental subject he had just acquired. The Shadow Space opened up by Niu Dingtian was like Lu Li's backyard. After Lin Shan's corpse entered, it was immediately disposed of by Lu Li.
After all, it wouldn't be good for such a good experimental subject to be eaten by Niu Dingtian as a tonic. So what Niu Dingtian absorbed was only a part of Lin Shan. The essence of the previous protagonist was completely stripped away by Lu Li, along with the jade pendant that had a slight crack.
Lin Hao's psychic constitution was entirely inherited by Niu Dingtian. Studying Lin Hao and studying Niu Dingtian are actually quite similar. In comparison, Niu Dingtian is easier to control, as Niu Dingtian has been in contact with him for far too long.
Niu Dingtian twisted his body, fully digesting the replenishment from the large medicine he had just received. His strength stabilized at the middle level of the Earth Rank. Although his skill level was still the lowest level, Yellow Rank, he was able to unleash the power of the Heaven Rank due to his monstrous mindset and various martial arts knowledge and skills.
"Power has finally been regained under my control, but it is far from enough. I want to see a higher view, I want to become truly eternal and indestructible." Niu Dingtian carefully sensed the power in the world.
With a head resembling a peeled egg, Niu Dingtian walked towards the Great Cloud Mountain Academy, the twenty-seven bells on his body jingling loudly, causing the other students to quickly leave. The title of "Bell Demon King" became even more terrifying.
On the flat ground in front of the academy, several academy teachers had set up tables and were sitting there. The sun was slowly rising in the distance, and the entrance exam was almost over. Qi Rou sat in a chair and looked at a teacher who came out of the academy, asking, "What was that dark cloud about earlier? Did the dean explain it?"
"No, the dean only relayed the order to increase security," the teacher said, shaking his head.
Qi Rou frowned. Previously, they could still monitor the situation inside the beast arena through the array, but then suddenly dark clouds gathered in the sky, the world changed color, and the monitoring array of the beast arena was also broken, causing them to lose control of what was happening inside the beast arena.
"I hope the students inside are alright," Qi Rou said hopefully. Although it was stated from the beginning that there was a possibility of life-threatening danger in the teaching at the Great Cloud Mountain Academy, every year when a student dies, the students' parents still come to cause trouble.
Although Great Cloud Mountain is not afraid, this is still a loss of reputation. In the past, it was one thing for students to do stupid things, but if there are large-scale student deaths in this entrance exam, there could really be some problems.
Soon after, trainees began to emerge from the arena. Some carried a bell, while others carried nothing. Of course, some were able to obtain more than one bell.
After submitting their registration, the students were guided to their dormitories to wash up and eat. Once the results were released, they would be reassigned to different classes. The group from Ox Family Town also completed their registration. Thanks to the three bells given by Niu Dingtian, plus the bells they had found or stolen before and after, the nine of them all achieved pretty good results.
More and more people arrived, including the Lin couple. Looking at those who handed in only one or two bells, they sneered, "A peasant is a peasant. Over a thousand bells, and they only managed so little. If it were my son, he would have dozens or even hundreds."
Suddenly, the sound of numerous bells rang out from afar. The woman's face was filled with pride. As she had expected, the only one who could obtain so many bells was naturally her son. Of course, if it weren't for Niu Dingtian, the freak created by Lu Li, Lin Hao, with all the treasures he possessed, might have actually won first place.
So when the woman saw Niu Dingtian, her face immediately changed. She said with disgust, "How could it be you, a peasant, who is so shameless as to flaunt yourself with bells hanging all over your body?"
"It seems like a family reunion wouldn't be bad." Niu Dingtian sized up the middle-aged woman. As the younger sister of the previous protagonist, Lin Shan had always shared everything good with her since he rose to prominence.
Unfortunately, if the middle-aged woman had better aptitude, she might have been able to achieve the title of a top-tier expert. However, this woman's aptitude was not good. Even though she was later nourished by various rare and precious materials and her aptitude was improved, she was not diligent in her cultivation because she always had her brother to rely on.
Until more than ten years ago, in order to give birth to a substitute with high destiny and high aptitude, Lin Shan went to great lengths. After finding a brother-in-law for his sister to cover up the truth, he used all sorts of methods to make her give birth to Lin Hao.
That is why, despite being over thirty and still looking like a young girl thanks to the effects of rare and precious herbs, her younger sister suffered a severe loss of vitality after giving birth to Lin Hao, turning into the middle-aged woman she is today.
Because her very health was damaged, no matter how good the food she ate, she couldn't go to bed. As a result, Lin Shan stopped touching her, which made her increasingly eccentric and shrewish. Her nominal husband was therefore forbidden from eating anything that could slow down aging and had to deliberately pretend to be old in order to appease her temper.
However, the woman never gave up over the years, consuming countless delicacies, but lacking cultivation, she couldn't digest them, and could only become depressed like her son. In a way, she was quite a valuable medicinal herb.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a beautiful woman before? If you want to look, go home and look at your mother." The woman shouted shrewishly, while looking uncomfortably towards the beast arena, and said fiercely, "Hey, what's going on at your academy? Why hasn't my son come out yet... Hey, what are you doing?"
Niu Dingtian pressed one hand against the woman, then his profound energy drilled directly into her. The woman screamed in alarm, and Qi Rou and the others were also startled, quickly standing up and saying, "Niu Dingtian, don't be impulsive! You'll get into trouble like this..."
Then they witnessed an astonishing scene: the middle-aged woman was sucked into Niu Dingtian's hand as if she had turned into noodles, along with a large amount of powder falling down.
Niu Dingtian, whose Xuan power had increased by a small level, then looked at the middle-aged man beside him, put his hand on his shoulder, and said sincerely, "They say the most important thing for a family is reunion. Your son, your brother-in-law, and your wife are all in. Although you don't look very appetizing, please come in as well."
"Help! Let me go! I've never slept with that woman, and her son isn't even mine! Please let me go..."
Before the middle-aged man could finish speaking, he turned into a pile of powder, all the edible parts being absorbed. "What should I add? Salt? Hmm, it's definitely a bit bland."
