"Look, how did this forest become like this?"
Someone shouted from the crowd. The brilliant green light in the forest began to recede. In just a moment, the entire forest seemed to have grown undisturbed for thousands of years, with green vines everywhere and full of vitality.
The original path was covered with weeds, and the rocks and mud were all covered in green, transforming into a land of life.
"Look, someone's coming out!"
Countless gazes turned to the forest's exit. A figure slowly stepped out, followed by two vines dragging two people who looked like living corpses. Those people were none other than Yan Qingshan, bringing Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing out.
"How does it feel to be surrounded like this?"
Yan Qingshan greeted the many new students with a smile on his face, not forgetting to turn back and speak to Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing.
Both of them were beaten to exhaustion by him, their Dou Qi depleted, and they had little strength left. If he hadn't held back, they would have become fertilizer for the forest.
"What do you want to say!"
Liu Qing spoke in a muffled voice. Of course, he knew that Yan Qingshan held back for another reason. Although he was reluctant to admit it, Yan Qingshan was indeed much stronger than him, and he lost convincingly.
"I really like your strength. Join me, and the three of us joining hands, we should be able to reach the top of the inner academy quickly."
Yan Qingshan spoke with a smile on his face, appearing very sincere. Both Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing looked slightly startled, then shook their heads at the same time.
"Consider it carefully, seniors. It wouldn't be good if you were hit with a club in the middle of the night. Oh, and I'm very good at pharmacology. I wonder if you two would like to see it."
Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing's expressions changed at the same time. Although Yan Qingshan was smiling, his words were full of threats.
However, their strength was not as good as his. More importantly, if that person really wanted to hit them with a club, even Lin Xiuya wasn't sure he could dodge it.
"Let's do this! After I enter the inner academy, I plan to go into seclusion for three months. You will help me take care of my Qingshan gang.
Don't let the people in the inner academy disturb the normal operation of the Qingshan Gang. We will discuss everything after I come out of seclusion."
Yan Qingshan changed his tone and made another request that seemed acceptable. Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing exchanged glances and nodded. Although they emphasized that they wouldn't work with Yan Qingshan in the future, the matter was basically settled.
This is the reason for asking for a high price and bargaining on the spot. First, set a big goal that is not easy to achieve, then make a small request after the other person refuses. In this way, the probability of the other party agreeing is nine out of ten.
But if Yan Qingshan directly made a request for a three-month guardianship period, Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing would also agree, but it would be impossible to persuade them to help him. But now the words haven't been spoken to death.
Yan Qingshan has accumulated a lot of fire energy in his hand. After he completes the transformation of his Dou Qi Method in three months of seclusion, his strength will definitely become stronger. At that time, some things will be easier to say.
…
"This red fire crystal card looks much better than the black ones, why does it need to be upgraded to go lower? The academy really knows how to make money!"
Outside the fire energy hunting competition forest, Yan Qingshan and the others followed several elders and many senior students to the inner academy. His complaint caused many people to twitch, and some elders looked a little awkward.
The red fire crystal card in Yan Qingshan's hand was naturally a gift for his successful leadership of the new students' counterattack. The number on it wasn't large, barely close to a hundred.
The members of the Black White Evil Team had chosen to "surrender." Yan Qingshan wasn't too embarrassed to take their fire energy. The fire energy from the previous eight teams was divided among everyone, and he was able to get nearly a hundred days, which was considered the largest share.
The cultivation of the group was not weak, and they quickly headed towards the end of the path. After the path, there was a very large sunken basin. Looking at the shape of this basin, it was as if a giant meteorite fell from the sky and hit it.
In this basin, tall buildings stood among them. Looking down from a height, one could see black shadows like fleas constantly flashing and jumping on the buildings.
The view extended forward, and the area of this basin was surprisingly large. The view reached the end, but one could still only see tall buildings and lush greenery.
"Alright, since the hunting competition is over, all the new students will return to the inner academy with me..."
One of the elders greeted a group of new students, while many senior students dispersed, leaving only Lin Xiuya and Liu Qing leading the ten members of the Black White Evil to follow a group of new students.
In the northeast corner of the inner academy, a residential complex, five bright courtyards with lofts, were opened to welcome new residents.
The elder leading the way opened the door with a smile and said, "This courtyard will be the residence for you five in the future."
"Five people?"
Han Yue frowned slightly and spoke in a cold voice, and Xiao Yi xian's expression was also a little unpleasant.
The elder leading the way explained, "This process is necessary. There are many forces in the inner academy, and many senior students will show hostility to new students. If you don't band together, you won't be able to get along well."
"If the elder says so, is it encouraging us to seize other people's courtyards? Elder, please accommodate us!"
Yan Qingshan had a smile on his face, and he seemed a little eager to try. The smile on the face of the elder leading the way froze. He almost forgot Yan Qingshan's abnormal strength. Even in the inner academy, there were almost no opponents.
"Forget it, I'll give you a small courtyard later!"
Yan Qingshan approached the elder leading the way, and the elder leading the way suddenly felt his palm sink. The words "Core Quenching Body Milk" rang in his ears, and his expression became serious, as if he couldn't refuse Yan Qingshan's request.
The elder leading the way continued, "There are no specific courses in the inner academy. However, there is a group activity once a week, and all students must enter the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower.
The Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower is a treasure of the inner academy. Cultivating there is more useful than any course. If you have enough fire energy, your cultivation will progress rapidly.
In addition, fire energy has many other uses in the inner academy. For example, there are Dou technique halls, Dou Qi Method pavilions, and other places in the inner academy. If you want to obtain suitable Dou Qi Methods or Dou skills, you can go there and take a look.
Of course, this must also be based on the premise of having enough fire energy to exchange. Compared to the outer courtyard, the inner academy is freer, but also more cruel."
The elder leading the way told Yan Qingshan and the others about the inner academy, then took Yan Qingshan to open a small courtyard next door. Yan Qingshan, Xiao Yi xian, and Han Yue happily moved in.
Don't ask why Han Yue was there. In her words, compared to Lin Yan and Han Xian, she felt that Yan Qingshan was safer. Yan Qingshan really wanted to ask her, "Sister, where did you see that I'm safer?"
