The efficiency of the Spiritual Heart Academy was as fast as ever. It only took half a day for the final results to come out.

There is no need to retake the exam. The top [-] students will be admitted based on the total scores of the two tests that have been completed so far.

It was no surprise that Lu Li and Moushu were on the admission list, and Lu Li was ranked 65th and Moushu was ranked 66th, both of which were ranked enough to enter the inner courtyard.

The senior brothers and sisters were very satisfied with the result. After getting their admission tokens, they followed the flow of people into the teleportation array leaving the academy, and only waited for three days before reporting back.

Returning to the large square outside the Spiritual Heart Academy, it was still a lively and noisy scene.

Even because evil cultivators have broken into the small world, there will be even more noise. Some people keep asking about the situation, and some are trying to fish in troubled waters and deliberately damage the reputation of the college.

Moushu glanced at those who were guiding public opinion intentionally or unintentionally, and then looked at the masters who were invisible among the crowd and had only met once in the academy.

Knowing that the college had already made arrangements, Moushu didn't pay much attention to it. The senior brothers and sisters looked at each other and left here in a tacit understanding and returned to Qucheng.

As soon as they arrived at the city gate, they saw Jiang Wu not far away, being surrounded and pushed by a group of gorgeously dressed people.

Listening to those obscene words, Moushu and Lu Li frowned, and immediately lost their impression of those gorgeously dressed people.

Glancing at Jiang Wu, who clenched his fists and swallowed his anger, the two of them did not take action immediately. Instead, they quietly moved to the crowd of onlookers and began to inquire for information without leaving any trace.

There were still a lot of people watching the excitement around, and many of them had witnessed the whole scene. When people later heard that they were curious, they started talking all over the place. You and I retold the whole process sentence by sentence.

After a while, Lu Li and Moushu figured out the situation and realized that Jiang Wu's move was an unwarranted disaster.

It was the woman in gorgeous clothes who was surrounded by everyone in the center who didn't like Jiang Wu, so she randomly found an excuse to teach him a lesson.

The other party was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and all the weapons he wore were spiritual weapons. Jiang Wu, an inconspicuous casual cultivator, could only hold his nose and admit it even though he knew he was feeling aggrieved, which led to what happened in front of him.

But that group of people was also a weirdo. They had stopped Jiang Wu from scolding him for two hours. Not only did he not calm down, but he seemed to be addicted to scolding. The more he scolded, the more outrageous he got, and the more he scolded, the more energetic he became.

Seeing one of them somehow condensing a fireball and throwing it at Jiang Wu's face, Jiang Wu finally couldn't bear it anymore and moved back slightly to avoid the other party's fireball.

But he never thought that just this step seemed to trigger some switch. The group of people immediately looked fiercely in their eyes and launched attacks without saying a word, all of them hitting Jiang Wu.

Among them, the attack of the girl in gorgeous clothes was directed at Jiang Wu's Dantian, obviously preparing to destroy Jiang Wu.

Seeing how viciously she acted, the expressions of many people present changed.

Moushu and Lu Li no longer hesitated. One of them took action to stop the attacks, while the other pushed Jiang Wu back and took them away from the encirclement in an instant.

When those people saw that the punching bag was gone, they immediately followed the direction to find it.

Then, they met Dong Hongyuan's cold gaze.

It turned out that Dong Hongyuan had arrived at the city gate just as Lu Li and Moushu took action.

Thinking that Lu Li might be the person they had been looking for, he almost didn't think twice and stood in front of Lu Li, blocking them tightly as a protector.

Those people probably didn't expect to see Dong Hongyuan here. They were all frightened and shouted tremblingly: "Dong...Young Master Dong."

As for Dong Hongyuan, as if he didn't see their scared expressions, the air conditioner was still blown out as if for free, and his tone was equally cold.

He scanned the group of people one by one with stern eyes, opened his thin lips slightly, and uttered one word: "Get out."

Just one word instantly made the group of gorgeously dressed people, including the girl surrounded in the center, all shake unconsciously.

Then, as if there were some terrible monsters behind them, they all ran away in a flash. The speed was so fast that Moushu even wondered if they had affixed accelerator charms to their bodies.

It wasn't until the group of people walked away that Moushu breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew his gaze, and looked at Dong Hongyuan with some curiosity. Lu Li on the side also raised his hands and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist Dong."

When Dong Hongyuan faced Lu Li and Moushu, the air conditioning had subsided a little, and it was no longer like a big ice cube. He first nodded towards Moushu who looked at him curiously, and then looked at Lu Li.

"No need to thank you." He still cherished his words like gold, but his tone had a rare warmth.

After the words fell, the three of them began to look at each other in silence. No one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere became awkward for no reason.

Just when Moushu was thinking about whether to say something, Jiang Wu, who finally found a chance to speak, walked out from behind Moushu, walked to the opposite side of the three of them, and bowed very respectfully.

"Thank you to the three seniors for their life-saving grace. I have nothing to repay. I can only run errands and inquire about information. If the three seniors are in need, I will be there without hesitation."

Just as Moushu and Lu Li were about to wave their hands, Dong Hongyuan spoke first: "No need."

After saying that, Dong Hongyuan stopped caring about Jiang Wu, looked at Lu Li again, and asked with a serious and rigorous expression: "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Lu can come with me for a while?"

This was the first time Lu Li saw Dong Hongyuan with such an expression. He recalled what he had known about him since they met him, thought about it, and finally nodded and accepted the invitation.

Moushu and he had always been inseparable, and when Lu Li nodded, Moushu would naturally follow suit.

When Jiang Wu saw this, he knew that it was not appropriate for him to follow him. He silently kept this kindness in his heart and prepared to repay the favor if he had the opportunity in the future, so he wisely said goodbye and left.

So, Lu Li and Moushu followed Dong Hongyuan, and under his leadership, they arrived at the Dong family's station in Qucheng.

Dong Hongyuan is the young master of the Dong family, and the people stationed here are very respectful. Seeing that he suddenly brought people back, the stewards were a little surprised, but they didn't say much.

Following Dong Hongyuan's instructions, he was given some refreshments that could only be enjoyed by the distinguished guests of his employer, and then exited at Dong Hongyuan's signal.

Then, Dong Hongyuan just asked if Mu Su needed to be avoided. When Lu Li shook his head firmly, he activated the isolation formation.

After activating the isolation array, he didn't seem to feel too relieved. He checked inside the meeting hall to make sure there was nothing that shouldn't be there, and added several layers of shields before looking at Lu Li.

Then, as if he was mentally prepared, he took out a brilliant token from the storage ring.
