Chapter 69: Collective Advancement
“Uh, that’s good.” Alas, he thought Xue’er was angry since she kept silent!
“Big Brother Feng, how are you doing in the Feng residence?” Ever since they accompanied him to the Feng residence, Big Brother Feng had been staying there for the past two days. She had been busy with the test and hadn’t had the time to ask.
“The first elder looked for me,” Feng Moran said. The first elder also made many promises to him, saying that he would compensate him for the wrongs that he had suffered all these years.
“He saw King Kong?” Leng Ruoxue asked in realization. Even a top family like the Feng family didn’t have divine beasts, so she was not surprised that the family valued Big Brother Feng.
“Yeah.” Feng Moran nodded. After saying a few words of concern and courtesy, the first elder had said that he wanted to see King Kong. Feng Moran was stunned for a few minutes and then left without saying a word. The next day, the first elder came to Feng Moran and said a lot of friendly words.
“What does Big Brother Feng think?”
“I only went back to the Feng residence to stay with my brother for a few days. I’ll leave soon,” Feng Moran said. He didn’t intend to stay there permanently.
“Big Brother Feng, I have no objections if you want to be a young master of the Feng family.” She said this because she didn’t want Feng Moran to have concerns. She wasn’t him after all. People in this world valued family interests very much, and they were born to serve their families.
“I’m not interested in being a young master of the Feng family!” Feng Moran said indifferently. In the past, he might have been very happy. But now, he was not interested at all. Being with Xue’er had broadened his horizons, so how could he be willing to trap himself in a family!
Everyone chatted as they walked back to the Leng residence together. It was not until late at night that Feng Moran and Feng Aoran reluctantly returned to the Feng residence.
…
“Feng Da, Lin Yuan, and I will go to the academy. The rest of you, stay at home!” Leng Ruoxue said after breakfast when she saw that it was almost time.
“Xue’er…” Ye Chen looked at Xue’er with resentful eyes.?Why isn’t she bringing me along? Boohoo…
“Okay, you too.” Leng Ruoxue was a little helpless.?This freak really likes to pretend to be pitiful.
When Leng Ruoxue and the others arrived at the entrance of the academy, the 48 students were already waiting there.
Leng Ruoxue got them to sit on Quill’s back and let Quill carry them out of Phoenix City.
Quill flew while his sharp eagle eyes scanned for a suitable place to land. After looking for some time, he found an uninhabited deep valley and descended.
Where is this? It’s so desolate…?The students couldn’t help feeling at a loss after getting off Quill’s back.
“Feng Da, Lin Yuan, distribute the pills to them.” Leng Ruoxue handed the jade bottles to the two of them.
“As long as you take the pills and advance to Spiritual Monarch, you will be students of the Sacred Hall from now on.” She didn’t tell them that their cultivation speed would be faster after taking her spiritual essence pills. This could also be considered their last test!
“Of course, taking the pill is voluntary,” Leng Ruoxue added. She was not willing to impose on others!
After hearing this, many of the students directly put the pills in their mouths. A small number of them hesitated, but in the end, they still took the pills. Leng Ruoxue naturally remembered every single one of their reactions. But if those slightly hesitant students knew that they had lost the qualification to follow Leng Ruoxue because of their hesitation, they would definitely regret it to death.
Most of these students were commoners, and for commoners, being able to become a Spiritual Monarch was already very satisfying. After all, becoming a Spiritual Monarch would allow them to apply for a noble title from the empire, and it would also improve their families’ lives. This was why they ate spiritual essence pills without hesitation. These students knew what they needed the most. It was obvious that the high tuition fees for spiritualists were too much of a burden for them.
Soon after taking the pills, some students began to feel the abnormality in their bodies, and they hurriedly sat cross-legged. Then more students gradually sensed the signs of advancement.
After the first stream of heaven and earth laws descended, the entire valley was shrouded in dazzling light. Then streams of heaven and earth laws descended one after another.
The scene of 48 students breaking through at the same time was quite spectacular. Fortunately, they were now advancing in an uninhabited deep valley, or else it would have scared people to death!
After a long while, the aftershocks of the heaven and earth laws slowly disappeared.
The 48 students who finished their advancements checked out their spiritualist levels happily.
“Congratulations on officially becoming students of the Sacred Hall. I’ll give you a few days off to consolidate your cultivation. Come to the Sacred Hall next Monday to report,” Leng Ruoxue said to them.
“Yes.”
“Also, I hope you can keep your mouths tightly sealed about the pills. Don’t tell anyone, or else don’t blame me for being ruthless!” Leng Ruoxue warned them kindly.
“Senior Sister, we won’t tell anyone,” the students promised in unison. They were not stupid. How could they tell others about taking pills to advance? Only those with poor aptitude would take pills.
“Yes, very good. Let’s go back now!”
After sending the students to the entrance of the academy, Leng Ruoxue returned to the Leng residence with Ye Chen and the others.
…
The next day, Leng Ruoxue and the others arrived at the Sacred Hall as usual, only to find Feng Moran, Feng Aoran, and Qiao Hua standing outside the training room.
“Big Brother Feng, why are you standing outside?” Leng Ruoxue asked doubtfully.
“The people from the Supreme Hall said they want to train and want us to leave,” Feng Moran explained lightly.
“Why? This is our place. They are the ones borrowing it!” Feng Da roared angrily. His temper had become a little fiery since he contracted with the fire dragon.
Without saying a word, Leng Ruoxue kicked open the door of the training room with a bang and walked straight in. Ye Chen and the others followed closely behind.
Everyone in the training room stopped what they were doing because of the loud noise. They looked at Leng Ruoxue and the others with doubt, fear, and anger in their eyes.
Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes swept over everyone present indifferently. Most of them were people she had seen before, but there were also some unfamiliar faces.
