Finale

"What?! Earth Grade Dou Technique?!"

Not only were some people in the room surprised, but even Hu Gan stood up.

The Earth Grade Dou Technique and the dense array of ice shuttles in the sky caused panic among the people on the arena. Some of them had seen Earth Grade Dou Technique before, and some even had Earth Tier Cultivation Method and Dou Technique in their homes, but they were simply not at their level to access them, let alone cultivate them.

Soon, some who couldn't win began to jump off the stage, while others who were confident they could withstand the attack immediately summoned their Dou Qi Armor and Dou Qi Gauze, gathering Dou Qi in their hands and preparing various Dou Technique to receive the attack.

Seeing that Hu Gan was about to interrupt, Lin Qing smiled and said, "Vice Principal, don't worry, nothing will happen. Qing Lin's Earth Grade Dou Technique will only cause him injury at most!"

He could tell through his soul power that the Dou Technique between Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin would at most injure the people on the stage, but would not pose a life-threatening danger.

Hearing Lin Qing's words, Hu Gan sat down again, but his eyes remained fixed on the arena, ready to intervene and save the person at any moment.

"Go!" ×2

As Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin shouted in unison, countless ice shuttles and sword fingers rushed towards the remaining students on the arena.

"Whoosh~"

Seeing this, the remaining students on the stage quickly released their Dou Technique upwards.

"Boom!"

The two Dou Technique collided above the arena, generating intense energy fluctuations. Due to the presence of Fire Attribute and Earth Attribute Da Dou Shi on one side of the arena, the explosion from this Dou Technique produced a cloud of smoke mixed with water mist.

When the mist and smoke dissipated, only the three Da Dou Shi remained standing in the arena. The rest of the people were lying on the stage. Whether they were lying or standing, they were all dressed in tattered clothes and had bloodstains caused by sharp weapons. The only difference was that the unconscious people had some ice shards on their bodies.

Clearly, the ice shuttle wasn't completely intercepted, and both sides in the hard- Earth Grade Dou Technique arena lost.

Seeing the scene on the arena, Hu Gan couldn't help but sigh.

"Well!"

"Elder Lin, your two little girls are quite remarkable!"

Elder Huo ignored the vice Vice Principal's sigh and instead nodded with a smile.

The instructor quickly jumped onto the stage, checked on the fallen students, and, confirming they were all alive and well, only unconscious, stood up and announced loudly, "The victors are Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin..."

As for questioning the Vice Principal, didn't you see Elder Lin sitting right next to Vice Principal? He has that much insight. These two students are Elder Lin's family members, and Elder Lin is the academy's only Sixth-Grade Alchemist. Besides, these students were just unconscious, not seriously injured, so declaring them the winner isn't against the rules.

As the instructor finished speaking, all the students and instructors in the audience stood up, and then a thunderous cheer suddenly erupted. In this torrent of sound, the entire square trembled, and everyone looked at Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin flying in mid-air.

"Junior Sister Xiao Yi Xian is amazing! She can take down anyone in one or two moves, and this move she made was even more beautiful. I'm afraid these people haven't even forced out half of her strength, right?"

"Qing Lin is quite impressive; she's already reached such a level of cultivation at such a young age!"

"..."

This Inner Academy Selection Tournament allowed many students at the Jia Nan Academy to get to know these two usually aloof and talented girls better.

In response, Lin Qing, Hu Gan, and others stood up and gently applauded.

The final match ended in a disappointing fashion.

With the conclusion of the Inner Academy Selection Tournament, according to the rules, the top fifty students will have about ten days of rest, while the top five will be notified by the higher-ups in about five to seven days and then taken to the academy's Scripture Pavilion by the Vice Principal.

As a reward, the five of them can take one item from the Scripture Pavilion. These items include Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills, as well as Medicinal Herb and Medicinal Pill. They are all relatively good items, which would make even Dou Emperor and Dou Zong powerhouses envious in the Black-Corner Region.

Of course, all of this depends on their own strength and luck. Lin Qing didn't know how rich Jia Nan Academy's collection was, but even the tip of the iceberg he knew contained countless good things.

He also hoped that the two women could obtain things that would be useful to them, such as Earth Grade Cultivation Methods and Combat Skills and high-level Medicinal Herb.

Although he wasn't particularly lacking in these things, the pleasure of getting something for free is something no human being can resist.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Qing and Xiao Yi Xian enjoyed a few days of leisure.

These past few days, besides instructing the women on cultivation and alchemy, he's spent his time in the Small Courtyard barbecuing, reading, and enjoying tea.

To be honest, even though this kind of life is kind of lazy, it's still quite enjoyable.

At this moment, Lin Qing was in the Small Courtyard outside his pavilion, grilling barbecue with Zi Yan and her group. Several Ice Scale Fish and Soft-Bone Rabbit Lightning Rabbit were being roasted by the group using Xuanhuang Flame.

Smelling the aroma of the grilled fish on the iron skewer in her hand, Zi Yan's tears involuntarily streamed from the corner of her mouth.

"Dongdong!"

Noticing the newcomer, Lin Qing turned slightly and handed the roasted rabbit to Qing Lin. Only a few instructors, elders, and a few people from the academy knew that he lived here, but only a handful of them would come looking for him.

With a wave of his hand, the courtyard gate opened directly. After the person entered the Small Courtyard, Lin Qing asked with a smile:

"Professor Ma Jun, is it time?"

"Okay! Now I'll call Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin to the Vice Principal's Office. The Vice Principal will take them to the Scripture Pavilion later."

Ma Jun glanced at the people in the courtyard and nodded.

Lin Qing turned around and said to the two girls, Xiao Yi Xian:

"Xiao Yixian, then you may go."

Upon hearing this, the two women handed the grilled fish to Xiao Yu and the others, then got up and followed Ma Jun to the Office.

After the two women left, the group finished their barbecue, tidied up the Small Courtyard, and then left Lin Qing's Small Courtyard.

Half a day later, Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin returned with faint smiles. Looking at the two smiling women, Lin Qing asked with a smile, "Looks like you had a good haul!"

"Hmm!" ×2

"I acquired a High Earth Grade ice-attribute Dou Technique, <Ice Sovereign Palm>."

Xiao Yi Xian took out an ice-blue scroll and handed it to Lin Qing.

Qing Lin also took out a wooden box. "Brother Lin Qing, this is a Heavenly Emerald Fruit."

Seeing what the two women had brought out, Lin Qing didn't take it. Instead, he ruffled their soft hair and said with a smile, "Keep it yourselves! You worked so hard to get this."

He doesn't need this stuff. If it's a special Medicinal Pill Formula or a special Medicinal Herb that he can use, then he'll naturally accept it.

Upon hearing this, the two put away the items they were holding. Then, as if she had thought of something, Xiao Yi Xian spoke up:

"Young Master, do Qing Lin and I need to establish our own power base after entering the Inner Academy?"

Thank you ༨ꫛꪝᝰᝰꫛꫀꪝ⁵²º. aA for the monthly pass.
