Looking at the ten spatial rings filled to the brim with flawless Flawless Primordial Stone, as well as some foundational Cultivation Method techniques and martial arts skills, Mu Fusheng fell silent.
A warm feeling welled up inside me, but I also felt a pang of guilt.
Given his personality, during this period, when there are hidden dangers that even his master has to deal with cautiously, his cultivation level is not high enough, and it is impossible for him to provoke women at this time.
This feeling of guilt stems from the inability to respond to Jiu Bailu at this moment.
Mu Fusheng could only joke on purpose, "If you give me all of these, won't His Highness the Crown Prince and the Nine Dragons Emperor be furious?"
As expected, Jiu Xuan was heartbroken, and the Nine Dragons Emperor felt it wasn't worth it for Jiu Bailu to give so much away.
However, Jiu Bailu did not immediately respond to the joke.
Instead, she silently stared at Mu Fusheng.
Those clear, bright eyes had already seen through everything, including Mu Fusheng's thoughts.
Mu Fusheng understood, but he couldn't say it; he could only smile bitterly to himself.
A full minute passed before Jiu Bailu suddenly smiled and said, "It's alright, there are conditions. Just give me a spot from your Azure Firmament Academy so I can go there too."
Upon hearing this, Mu Fusheng couldn't help but sigh.
This spot was precious, but he knew that Jiu Bailu wasn't the type to fight for something that didn't belong to her.
These words were said simply to set conditions for these sentiments; once there are conditions of self-interest, they can no longer be called sentiments.
Jiu Bailu said these words only to prevent Mu Fusheng from being troubled by these matters, and deliberately made it sound like a self-serving statement.
But precisely because of this, Mu Fusheng was also an extremely intelligent person, and he immediately understood what Jiu Bailu meant.
And that's precisely why Mu Fusheng will only sink deeper and deeper...
That's why I sighed.
Mu Fusheng originally thought that he could not possibly get into any quagmire, and even if he accidentally stepped in, he would be able to pull himself out.
But these things seem to be completely beyond our control.
This was the first time Mu Fusheng had ever experienced something so completely out of control.
Seeing the conflicted and distressed look on Mu Fusheng's face, Jiu Bailu couldn't help but smile slightly and said softly, "I know that once someone has chosen a path, they won't easily change it, but... perhaps we can let nature take its course?"
"Like a tenacious flower, it survives strongly in the wild, but once transplanted to what people consider a comfortable environment, it cannot survive."
Mu Fusheng smiled bitterly to himself.
Let nature take its course... Everyone in the world knows this principle, but how many people can truly do it?
"Alright, let's not think about that anymore." Jiu Bailu chuckled and said, "Want to go for another stroll?"
Mu Fusheng thought for a moment, recalling what Jiu Bailu had just said, and then nodded.
As a result, after we finished shopping...
They then discovered that near the spatial nodes surrounding the Chaotic Spirit Academy, Xiao Hei, Shi Sheng, and Fang Qiong were all staring at Mu Fusheng with dark expressions.
Seeing this, Mu Fusheng scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled, "Well... she gave me too much, that's why I stayed a little longer."
Xiao Hei approached, his face expressionless, and said, "If you don't win her over, you're finished."
Shi Sheng and Fang Qiong nodded in unison behind them.
They returned to the Changsheng Realm.
Ye Qiubai was also practicing his sword here at that moment.
Meanwhile, Hong Ying and Ning Chenxin were also here.
Mu Fusheng and the others were slightly taken aback upon seeing this, and asked, "Senior Sister? Weren't you handling matters at the Azure Firmament Academy? Why are you back?"
Hong Ying smiled and said, "I just came to wait for you. I heard that Senior Brother and you were all coming back soon, so I came first and also to see Master."
By the way...
Lu Changsheng, who was eating and drinking soup nearby, rolled his eyes, but since Hong Ying had come back and made some soup, he let it go.
"Wait for us?" Xiao Hei asked. "Is there a problem at the Azure Firmament Academy?"
"Nothing's wrong," Hong Ying chuckled. "It's just that the students in the academy are all very excited lately, wanting to participate in the Six Realms Academy Grand Competition and broaden their horizons."
Being able to step out of the Mortal Realm greatly broadens one's horizons and allows for personal growth; such opportunities are rare.
Therefore, even after the selection process, there are still trainees who want to participate.
Not to mention that a new batch of students has now joined Azure Firmament Academy.
Mu Fusheng said, "It's simple. Just set a rule that students who want to participate in the Six Realms Academy Grand Competition can challenge students who have already secured a spot every seven days. This will Battle Intent them while also keeping those who have already secured a spot on their toes."
Ning Chenxin chimed in, "That's what we were thinking too, so we were hoping our senior and junior brothers could help us choose someone, and also mentor them."
Shi Sheng said woodenly, "Wouldn't it be better to just ask Master to go?"
Before his master could speak, Ye Qiubai chuckled and said, "Isn't it a bit of a waste of your talents, Master, to do this?"
That's like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng immediately nodded and said, "Yes, he's become much smarter after sweeping the mountain. Not bad, not bad."
Ye Qiubai: "..."
"Alright, time is of the essence, let's head to the Azure Firmament Academy together," Hong Ying said with a smile.
Everyone nodded.
After bidding farewell to his master, he headed to the Azure Firmament Academy.
Azure Firmament Academy has changed a lot since then.
The entire Ancient Battlefield has become the territory of the Azure Firmament Academy.
The outer courtyard had seven halls.
They are respectively the Sword Hall, Talisman Hall, Formation Hall, Body Tempering Hall, Pill Hall, Confucian Hall, and Primordial Hall.
Primordial Hall is for accepting students who are not affiliated with other halls.
These also represent the things that Ye Qiubai and the others cultivate.
However, for example, Shi Sheng's Star Dao Law, Xiao Shitou's Space Dao Law, and Hong Ying's Emperor Qi and Dao Law of Samsara... these are all extremely special cultivation methods.
Only by becoming a direct disciple and joining Heaven-Shaking Court or the Imperial Heaven Court can one have the opportunity to come into contact with them.
That's right, the Heaven-Shaking Court and the Imperial Heaven Court are collectively referred to as the Inner Academy.
The Ancient Battlefield has undergone tremendous changes.
Mansions, towers, and courtyards are situated here.
At the same time, the existing heritage of the Ancient Battlefield was used to establish a secret realm for inheritance.
Hong Ying led Ye Qiubai and the others past the outer courtyard without making a sound.
They arrived at the core area of the Azure Firmament Academy, which was the Dean's Hall where Hong Ying and Ning Chenxin were located.
At this moment, inside the main hall.
Ten trainees stood here with their bodies ramrod straight.
Upon seeing Hong Ying Ning Chenxin arrive, they immediately greeted them respectfully, "Greetings, Deans!"
When they saw Ye Qiubai and the others beside them, they were so excited that their bodies trembled.
You must know, these people are legendary figures in the Mortal Realm!
Hong Ying smiled and said, "These are the tentative candidates. Just a friendly reminder, Senior Brother, your wife has also joined Azure Firmament Academy and wants to try for this spot as well."
==========
P. S.: I have some things to do today, so this is the only chapter I'll write. Sorry.
(Let me calculate what I owe these past few days. I was supposed to update four chapters yesterday, but I only updated three, so I owe one chapter. Adding the one chapter I owe today, I'll update four chapters tomorrow.)
