Surprise! The popular villain is actually Long Aotian's wife

Shan Zhen weighed the pros and cons in his mind again and again, his eyes darkened, he paid attention, and asked: "What is the current cultivation level of the Lan Chi you mentioned?"

The short student quickly said, "Master Lan Chi has been in school for half a year and has already reached the sixth level of cultivation."

Shan Zhen's face darkened and he said angrily, "Are you kidding me?"

"Don't you know how strong Lu Changjue is? Not to mention the sixth level, even if he is at the eighth level with the same level of cultivation, who can be his opponent!"

The high-level monk's pressure was faintly released, and the short student's legs trembled. He was afraid and quickly explained:

"As long as we find more students to wear down Lu Changjue's spiritual power in advance, and then let Lan Chi take the field, we will be almost certain to win."

Shan Zhen snorted coldly.

He originally planned to take the challenge stage in a round-robin format, but he didn't know who to let go.

After all, students from poor families are not willing to offend the Lu family.

The short student added cautiously, "It's just that Master Lan Chi is still in the first grade."

Shan Zhen looked unhappy. In order to win 30% of the resources represented by the challenge platform in a natural way, he had to do too many roundabout things.

First, we need to let students with good strength play in the competition to wear down Lu Changjue's spiritual power and state, and also ensure that a useless young master wins.

The short student flattered him: "It's just a matter of a word from the director to get promoted to a higher grade."

As long as the last 30% of resources can all fall into his pocket, then all the work done before will be worth it.

When Shan Zhen thought of this, his expression eased a little.

On the back of the spirit crane, Qi Wu Yue used the communication jade to communicate with the green-robed old man while asking him about the rules and rewards of the resource competition.

The old man in green robe was fiddling with spiritual plants in the Baicao Garden. Hearing this, he stopped what he was doing, thought carefully, and said impatiently:

"Speaking of rewards, this time the rewards are really good. One of them is especially suitable for my good disciple!"

"The top ten rewards will be distributed based on the amount of resources won."

"The first reward is a Soul Cleansing Fruit. It turns out that the academy is never stingy when it comes to rewards."

The Spirit Cleansing Fruit can wash away any kind of spiritual power in a cultivator's body.

In the world of immortal cultivation, it is far more common for cultivators to have multiple types of spiritual power in their bodies than single-attribute spiritual power.

The attributes of spiritual power are determined by nature. Of course, they can be influenced by acquired factors, but it is difficult and the effect is not good.

Multiple types of spiritual power often have strengths and weaknesses. If a cultivator is born in a family with a deep cultural heritage, the elders will use the Spirit Cleansing Fruit to wash away the weakest type of spiritual power, leaving only the strongest type.

Because the spiritual power with shallow vitality is destined to have shallow aptitude for cultivation, it is certain that one will not go far on the road.

At the same time, it also prevents the mixed spiritual power from affecting future cultivation and even physical fitness and spiritual veins.

Even if the difference in the vitality of the two systems' spiritual power is not much different, few people would choose to stay with them at the same time.

Because cultivating two types of spiritual power means learning two techniques, which takes twice as much resources and time.

It’s not that there are people who don’t hesitate to spend time and resources to cultivate two kinds of spiritual power, but the result is that they are not much stronger than cultivators with single-attribute spiritual power.

The five types of spiritual power are mutually reinforcing and restraining. Fundamentally, there is no strong or weak spiritual power itself. How far a cultivator can go ultimately depends on his personal qualifications and talents.

Of course, this does not include mutated spiritual power.

Strange water and strange fire are also excluded.

Except for some professions that require dual or even multiple spiritual powers.

Alchemists need dual spiritual powers of fire and wood.

A weapon refiner needs both water and fire spiritual powers. If he has an additional gold spiritual power, he can also sense metals more conveniently.

A herbalist must have at least some wood-type spiritual power, but it would not matter if he has more water-type spiritual power or earth-type spiritual power.

As for illusionists, formation masters, beast masters, talisman masters, astrologers, Yin-Yang masters, Buddhist practitioners...

These professions do not care about spiritual power attributes.

Therefore, things like the Soul Cleansing Fruit are suitable for most cultivators, and no one would have too much.

But the growing environment is harsh and the yield is low, so the price is naturally self-evident.

Qi Wu Yue said indifferently: "Washing the spirit fruit is useless."

But it can be used to sell spirit stones.

The voice of the old man in green robe came instantly.

"Tsk! If you have the guts, you can just take out a hundred or eighty of them. I'll stand here and let you throw them at your face."

Qi Wu Yue said indifferently: "Aren't you a herbalist? If you want, just grow eight hundred or so yourself."

"Besides, there's nothing to smash about your old face. I don't care."

The old man in green robe was so angry that he was grinding his teeth through the communication jade pendant. He wanted to fly over and give his obedient disciple a lecture.

When looking for a partner, you must not look for someone with a bad temper. This kind of trouble, apart from having a good face, makes people hate him wherever he goes.

Xiao Lin said calmly, "The Spirit Cleansing Fruit is difficult to grow, and the herbalist is not omnipotent."

The old man in green robe: "That's right!"

Qi Wu Yue was calm and composed: "Oh, are you admitting that your skills in cultivating spiritual plants are not up to par?"

The old man in green robe smiled with his face but not his heart: "Haha, try planting an old man and see."

"Don't even mention washing the spiritual fruit. Aren't those flowers in your yard dying every now and then?"

Xiao Lin put his fist to his lips to hide his smile.

Qi Wu Yue narrowed his eyes: "What did you say?"

The old man in green robe challenged wildly: "You are such a scourge, you will die for whatever you sow!"

The atmosphere was getting tense, and Xiao Lin saw that things were not going well, so he quickly changed the subject: "Although the first reward is precious, it doesn't seem to be of much use to us. I wonder what the reward that Master mentioned is that is suitable for me?"

The green-robed old man then returned to the point and said, "The second reward is a marrow cleansing grass, which can be used to cleanse the marrow through Yi Jing."

"Aren't you still a sword cultivator? This marrow cleansing grass is a spiritual plant that strengthens the physique, and it's just right for you."

Qi Wu Yue said: "This one is quite interesting, what about the third one?"

The old man in green robe stroked his beard, shook his head and said, "Enlightenment Stone."

Qi Wu Yue was surprised and asked, "There are even such things? Why is it ranked third?"

Xiao Lin asked: "What is that?"

Qi Wu Yue explained: "The Enlightenment Stone contains the laws of heaven and earth, and its surface is covered with Dao patterns. Observing it can help you gain enlightenment."

"It is extremely precious. If one piece appears occasionally, it would not be an exaggeration to sell it for tens of millions of spirit stones at an auction."

Xiao Lin thought, "Ranked third, so it's not the real Enlightenment Stone."

The old man in green robe said: "It's indeed not what you think, just..."

He pointed with his fingers, but found that his good disciples couldn't see it either, so he put his hand down with regret.

"It's just a small piece, a tiny dot. The laws of heaven and earth contained in it are not worth mentioning. There are half a dozen or even a few great Dao patterns in it."

Qi Wu Yue lost interest instantly: "Are you trying to fool people with some dregs?"

The old man in green robe: "..."

This evildoer is quite knowledgeable, he might have even seen the authentic enlightenment stone.

The old man in green robe tried to save some face for the academy: "They are just a bunch of brats who haven't even reached the stage of Condensed Veins. They are enough scum."

"Who can afford to give you what you want? Even if you really give it to me, I won't be able to comprehend it."
