Chapter 80 The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Chapter 80: Chapter 80 The Boy Who Cried Wolf"Ling Chen, you stay!" Elder Bai Qian hurriedly said. The actual brother of the Deputy Palace Master’s disciple, he knew, was not someone to offend. The Ice Spirit Body, is indeed known as a Super Spiritual Body. Ling Wu’s future achievements are boundless. He is expected to be promoted to the Palace Mansion Realm! Therefore, he immediately changed his stance and began to urge Ling Chen to stay. He had already decided that after leaving, he would immediately present a gift and apologize to Ling Chen. Upon hearing this, Ling Chen looked at Elder Bai with a slight surprise. He really hadn’t anticipated that Elder Bai would make such a statement. Originally, he had indeed planned to leave True Martial Academy and try his luck at the Academic Palaces of other principalities. But seeing how valued Ling Wu was by the Deputy Palace Master, if he stayed, he could also spend time with Ling Wu frequently. "Alright, I am willing to join True Martial Academy." Ling Chen nodded. Seeing Ling Chen agree, the Deputy Palace Master was also quite pleased, not because of Ling Chen, but because of Ling Wu. His own disciple could finally cultivate with peace of mind! The Sacred Body, ah! When she reveals her true strength, perhaps the entire Great Xia Dynasty will be shocked, no? Thinking of the Eight Palaces Tournament a year later, the Deputy Palace Master’s eyes gleamed with excitement. "Alright, Ling Chen, why don’t you reside within the Central Palace?" The Deputy Palace Master said with a smile. Ling Chen shook his head and said, "Deputy Palace Master, I wish to cultivate in the outer palaces." This time, it was the Deputy Palace Master’s turn to be shocked: "Aren’t you unable to cultivate?" "I only said that I don’t have the talent for cultivation, not that I cannot cultivate." Ling Chen replied. "Isn’t that the same?" The Deputy Palace Master looked confused. Ling Chen nodded: "Of course it’s different. I am just unable to perceive nature’s spiritual energy, but I can use other methods to cultivate." "How to cultivate?" asked the Deputy Palace Master. "Elixirs." Ling Chen said with a smile. "What cultivation level are you at now?" The Deputy Palace Master asked. "Spirit Sea Realm, second layer!" Ling Chen said with a smile. The Deputy Palace Master was dumbfounded once again. With his experience, he had never seen such a peculiar method of cultivation. He asked again, "Is your cultivation level really built up with elixirs?" "More or less." Ling Chen nodded. The Deputy Palace Master first glanced at Ling Wu, then looked at Ling Chen with a strange expression. Isn’t this damned peculiar? His interest fading, the Deputy Palace Master waved his hand dismissively: "Fine, as you wish. Elder Bai, you go make the arrangements." The way Ling Chen cultivates is like quenching thirst with poison. His potential for future achievements is limited. He thought for a moment and then looked to Ling Wu: "Xiao Wu, is that okay?" Elder Bai saw this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched—wasn’t the Deputy Palace Master pampering Ling Wu a little too much? "Mhm." Ling Wu nodded. Ling Chen must have his reasons for doing so. In the Ling Family, she had always followed Ling Chen’s orders. Moreover, she was going to be in seclusion for a long period and may not be able to see Ling Chen often. "Then, I thank the Deputy Palace Master!" Ling Chen bowed slightly. Elder Bai Qian then took Ling Chen away. On the way. "Ling Chen, why didn’t you mention earlier that Ling Wu is your sister?" Elder Bai Qian said with a smile. Ling Chen replied with a smile: "Elder, my apologies, I was also unaware before that Ling Wu had sworn fealty to the Deputy Palace Master." "It’s like a flood has swept into the Dragon King Temple!" Elder Bai Qian laughed, "Please don’t take the past matters to heart." Ling Chen immediately nodded: "That’s too kind of you, Elder. You were merely upholding justice!" Now wasn’t the opportunity to reveal everything, so Ling Chen could only continue to play along with him. "Worthy of the brother of a Deputy Palace Master’s disciple, such magnanimity and open-mindedness are truly extraordinary!" Bai Qian said. "You flatter me too much, Elder Bai." Ling Chen smiled. "Alright, let’s consider that we didn’t start off on the right foot. In the future, if there’s anything, feel free to look for this Elder." Bai Qian smiled and said. "Thank you for being so polite, Elder." Ling Chen smiled back faintly. Bai Qian took out a storage ring and handed it to Ling Chen, "Considering that you need quite a few Elixirs for cultivation, you can use these first. Don’t find them too few." "I dare not decline such a gift from the Elder!" Ling Chen took it and expressed his gratitude. "Haha!" Bai Qian laughed heartily. Now, Ling Chen was much more pleasant to his eyes. Quite the promising one indeed! "Alright, I will have someone arrange things for you." Bai Qian smiled, summoned Bai Yan, and arranged for Ling Chen to join the outer academy. "Thank you for your trouble, senior!" Ling Chen gave Bai Yan a formal bow. "Junior brother, don’t mention it. This is what I should do as a senior!" Bai Yan immediately returned the gesture. Having been summoned by the Deputy Sect Master and directly enrolled as an outer academy student, he dared not to take Ling Chen lightly. In the outer academy. Inside a simple room. Ling Chen sat on the bed, in front of him were a Token, two sets of garments, and a book. The Token symbolized the identity of an outer academy disciple. The garments were the official uniform for the outer academy disciples. The book was the True Martial Academy student handbook, containing various important notices. He stowed away the Token and garments, and began to browse through the student handbook. It would be problematic to breach any of the taboos listed. In half an hour, Ling Chen had pretty much understood everything. For outer academy students, the most important thing was to engage in Cultivation. Three months after joining the academy, there would be an assessment for new students. Afterward, assessments would be held every half year. If one ranked in the bottom thirty twice in a row, they would be directly eliminated! This assessment for new students posed no difficulty for Ling Chen. As dusk fell. Ling Chen immediately felt an incredibly rich Spiritual Energy surrounding him. "Such rich Spiritual Energy!" Ling Chen was astounded. The Spiritual Energy here was twice as dense as that in their temporary residence. Astonishing. No wonder countless people were scrambling to join the True Martial Academy. With such dense Spiritual Energy, Ling Chen immediately began cultivating the Night Moon Sacred Body. He now mastered several high-grade profound Spirit Arts, but the Spiritual Power in his body was too scant to support using them more than a few times. Thus, the most important task at hand was to enhance his cultivation level. Sёarᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. A night passed. Ling Chen’s cultivation had improved. He was even closer to reaching the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm. "Creak!" Ling Chen pushed the door and walked out. The three young men in the courtyard were surprised to see Ling Chen. "Hey, aren’t you that guy with absolutely no talent for cultivation?" They recognized him immediately. Yesterday, Ling Chen made a name for himself in a battle, powerfully defeating Su Qingyun of the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm while only at the second level of the same realm himself, becoming well-known amongst the new students. Unfortunately, he had left without joining the True Martial Academy. "That’s me." Ling Chen nodded. "You’re amazing, little brother!" The three immediately gathered around! One of the bulky young men laughed and said, "You’ve really made our outer academy students proud. So what if one is a Core Disciple? He still got defeated by our little brother, huh? Heh, I can’t stand those guys who rely solely on their talents!" "Hehe." Ling Chen smiled lightly. He looked at the tall young man and said, "What’s your name again, Xiong Chumo?" He remembered now; this was the first student to be tested. "Little brother, you remember me!" Xiomg Chumo laughed heartily. Another lean young man said with a smile, "Hey, Ling Chen, do you know my name?" Ling Chen shook his head slightly. How could he remember so many people from that day? "My name is ’Wolf’s Coming’!" The lean young man laughed. "Haha!" They all laughed. Xiong’s out and about, Wolf’s coming, hmm, quite a match!
