Tomorrow is the day to leave.
Carrying a deep sense of reluctance...
Though determined in heart, before leaving, he still gave Xu Lingjun a small, exquisite jade pendant!
According to him, this jade pendant is specially crafted from Li chen Jade, capable of holding True Qi within. It contains more than eighty percent of his Power, and if the jade is shattered, the True Qi will form a chaotic flow, dissipating all attacks in front of it into nothingness.
At critical moments, it can save a life.
If one day he wishes to join the Sect, just by presenting this jade pendant to the Sun and Moon Bright Sect, it would serve as a token...with this token, he can still become a disciple of the Sun and Moon Bright Sect.
"And based on the characteristics of Li chen Jade, this jade pendant continuously erodes the True Qi inside it. As they wear each other down, the True Qi will completely vanish in three years, and the jade pendant will disappear with it."
On the return charter flight.
Tomorrow he explained to his junior sister, "Within three years, if he wishes to join the Sun and Moon Bright Sect, I will take him. But after three years, he will have missed the prime time...even with careful cultivation, he would be of little value."
So, while speaking fiercely, in his heart he was still reluctant.
Liu Peiyun thought to herself.
Of course, this was only what Liu Peiyun thought.
She didn't dare to say anything.
Knowing that it was her fault that the Sun and Moon Bright Sect missed such an excellent disciple, it was already a huge favor that her senior brother hadn't torn her apart.
If she complained further, she wouldn't know how she'd end up dead.
The Sun and Moon Bright Sect left with four disciples; Tomorrow did not take Xu Lingjun's suggestion. As a prestigious Sect, they would rather have none than lower their standards, and would not look to fill the vacancy.
Moreover, before leaving, Ji Roufeng, together with Li Lei, visited Xu Lingjun...subtly hinting that the Sect Leader had deliberately left that spot open just for him, and he also wanted to wait for him.
Xu Lingjun brushed it off with a joke.
If it were before, upon hearing the opportunity to join a Sect, he would have been overjoyed and gone…
Unfortunately, now the Sect could offer him so little, joining the Sect seemed low in cost-effectiveness.
In contrast, Wang Qingya earnestly asked for Ji Roufeng's contact information, expressing her wish to stay in touch.
Xu Lingjun couldn't help but complain privately to Wang Qingya…
Dear elder sister, I really have no interest in her.
Is it just because she's a bit pretty? I don't even know what her personality is like…
I, Xu Lingjun, am not someone who loses control over himself at the sight of a beautiful woman; it's those women who should find themselves uncontrollable…
Of course, the last sentence was purely a boast; Xu Lingjun, no matter how thick-skinned, was embarrassed to say it to Wang Qingya.
Unfortunately, when Wang Qingya pulled out the small umbrella Guo Zheng had given her from the drawer, full of smiles...
Xu Lingjun could only remain speechless.
In the following days, Xu Lingjun became busy.
First, the Armed Police Department bought the Bone Splitting Lizard at 1,000 Xia Coins per kilogram, boosting Xu Lingjun's personal wealth to over 500,000 Yuan. This wasn't a high price, but it wasn't low either...pretty honest, actually.
As for the bones, according to Yuan Tianqing's intent, besides the skull which had been completely shattered and unusable...
The other bones of the Bone Splitting Lizard were incredibly durable. If mixed with unique materials to soften them and made into armor, the defense capability would be quite strong. Giving Xu Lingjun a set would also serve to win over this student who had an almost one hundred percent chance of getting into the Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion early.
Unfortunately, a word from the Director enlightened him.
"If he can break the Bone Splitting Lizard's teeth, is there any point in giving him armor made from it?"
Yuan Tianqing was silent for a moment, then sensibly dropped the matter.
After receiving the money, Xu Lingjun immediately took Wang Qingya to the best restaurant in Qingzhou City for a meal. He had been freeloading off her for some time; any longer and, once married, he might lack even the confidence in his morning erection.
Living off someone else makes it hard to feel 'up' for it.
He needed to prove to her that Xu Lingjun is not a freeloader!
Afterwards, he went to the pharmacy.
He purchased a large batch of Blood Supplement Capsules and Blood Replenishing Oral Liquid.
Although it consumed a significant amount of Source Value, resources are meant to be used.
The cultivation of the "Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique" relies on Qi Blood; consuming capsules to enhance Qi Blood can greatly boost one's Blood Qi ability, thereby strengthening the cultivation of the "Infinite Divine Demon Body Refining Technique." This is his foundation.
It's just that he dared not consume them as recklessly as before; he would only take the second pill after ensuring all Qi Blood had been fully absorbed into Power.
Rather than intake too frequently, resulting in residual effects where the medicinal effect silently supplemented other areas...he didn't want to live life tied to a belt around his waist; that's not the kind of joy he was seeking.
As Sun and Moon Bright Sect left.
Though the class lost two students, Wei Hua left, and then Li Lei left, life at Qingyang High School gradually returned to normal...
Xu Lingjun began focusing most of his attention on cultural studies.
Sharpening a spear doesn't make it flash.
As Wang Qingya said, all powerful Martial Artists are not illiterate; achieving remarkable success in Martial Tao requires balanced advancement. Besides, getting into Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion requires more than just Martial Skills.
It also demands outstanding cultural achievements.
Because of this matter.
Xu Lingjun went to the pharmacy to purchase a large amount of Life No.1.
To supplement brain nutrition, increase memory...though the system's evaluation labeled it a false product, not even inferior fake.
Yet, Xu Lingjun spent 150 Source Value to make it truly capable of improving memory without any toxic side effects… when the introduction says no side effect, so after the Source Value modification by Xu Lingjun, indeed there's none!
I spent over a thousand points of Source Value.
Though it made Xu Lingjun distressed, the progress was evident.
He couldn't say he never forgets anything, but he could clearly remember all recent events and study cultural knowledge with far greater ease.
Wang Qingya, who tutored him in his studies in the evenings, couldn't help but exclaim that given his memory alone, not even mentioning his wits, it's a pity if he doesn't join the Zhanzheng Academy.
Xu Lingjun naturally felt pleased, never expecting the once bothersome studies to become so simple now.
Products matching their descriptions, this was indeed the greatest joy.
If not for Source Value still being scarce, he might have yielded to the temptation of tasting real instant noodles by now.
Time quietly passed…
There were slight changes compared to before.
For instance, Qingyang High School had begun deep collaboration with Baoyan Martial Arts Hall.
Many students in the class started going to the Martial Arts Hall to supplement their Martial Skills after school.
Having witnessed Xu Lingjun's fists firsthand, Martial Skills capable of killing Demon Beasts, they naturally all flocked eagerly.
After learning Martial Skills, they would actively seek Xu Lingjun out after class to consult him about it…
Since they vaguely sensed that Xu Lingjun seemed more adept in the boxing manual of the Flame Killing Fist.
It seemed somewhat absurd and humorous, considering that a Martial Artist at the realm of Hui Chuan, even if disabled, was leagues ahead of Xu Lingjun in strength. But for some reason, Thunder Flaare's execution of the Flame Killing Fist lacked the imposing aura that Xu Lingjun achieved.
As for the Lie Family brothers.
They were still bewildered…
These past few days, after inquiries, they understood what had transpired.
Someone in their Martial Arts Hall learned the Flame Killing Fist and then, when encountering a Demon Beast attack, used it to kill the Beast...
It seemed plausible.
But others might not know; the Lie Family brothers should definitely know what they were selling…
That Martial Skill may struggle even against pets—they're talking about killing a Demon Beast?
Are you kidding me?
