Chapter 559 – Joining The School Of Life
“Teacher Tang, I’m very willing to join the School of Life and work hard for this research, but I’m not sure if I have that much time. I want to cultivate, I want to forge, I want to learn how to pilot a space fighter, we’re already in the Star War experimental class and I still have to make my Battle Armor, I have too many things to do. I can’t be sure how much time I will be able to dedicate to research life energy, I can’t lie to you. I’m sorry, Teacher Tang, I think I might not be qualified to join the School of Life yet.” Lan Xuanyu thought for a moment and gave this answer.
In the face of heavy responsibility, he chose to retreat because he couldn’t promise something that he might not be able to do. He obviously hoped to become stronger and obtain the support of the School of Life. But this was also built on the premise that he could contribute to the School of Life.
He had his bottom line. Although he would usually take advantage of their good will towards him at Sea God Lake, he would never forget the bigger picture.
Seeing Lan Xuanyu’s serious expression, Tang Yue suddenly laughed. “Very good, you gave a perfect answer. I didn’t misjudge you. From now on, you’re a part of the School of Life, I welcome you.”
“Ah?” Lan Xuanyu was stunned. ‘Didn’t I reject him? How am I now one of their members ?’
Tang Yue pulled Lan Xuanyu’s hand and placed a ring on his hand. It was a crystal clear glass-like ring, but upon closer inspection, one would discover that there was a layer of luster within it that emitted a faint silver halo.
Lan Xuanyu immediately sensed the spatial element fluctuation within. This was obviously a storage ring, and it was a relatively high-level storage ring because he didn’t see any soul arrays engraved on this ring. This was a special type of spatial ore.
“Teacher Tang, what if I agreed to join the School of Life just now?” Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help but ask.
Tang Yue smiled but didn’t say a word. Lan Xuanyu didn’t know that the order Elder
Shu gave to Tang Yue was that as long as he had any thoughts of joining the School of Life, he had to do anything to get him to join. Tang Yue’s words just now only told him how great the responsibility of the School of Life was.
In fact, no one in the School of Life, including Elder Shu, had ever hoped that he would be able to find a way to break the thousand-year limit.
How many generations of people in Shrek Academy had succeeded in nine thousand years without being able to solve this huge problem? Would they expect a child like him to solve it in just a few years? This was simply unrealistic.
The most important reason for Tang Yue’s words was to make Lan Xuanyu feel guilty. In the future, when Elder Shu will face the thousand-year limit, it would be the time for Lan Xuanyu to take over the School of Life. This was something that Elder Shu had secretly decided, and only the core members of the School of Life would know. With this guilt in his heart, how could Lan Xuanyu ignore the School of Life ?
And it was true that Tang Yue said he was satisfied with Lan Xuanyu’s answer. A child with a bottom line would not blindly agree and would not be rash just because of the huge benefits that he could obtain. This quality made Tang Yue very satisfied.
Even if Lan Xuanyu agreed just now, he would still give this ring to him, but in Tang Yue’s heart, he wouldn’t approve of him as much.
And now, Tang Yue was completely in awe of Elder Shu. Teacher’s eyesight was really good! Lan Xuanyu was truly worthy of being someone that even Pavilion Master Wang thought highly of. He truly had extraordinary qualities.
“Alright, go to Sea God Lake and cultivate. From now on, you can come to Sea God Lake anytime for free. This is a benefit that only our School of Life has.” Tang Yue smiled and patted Lan Xuanyu on the shoulder. He didn’t say anything more about the School of Life. Teacher would tell him everything else in the future, and Tang Yue only wanted to tell Elder Shu this good news as soon as possible.
“Thank you, Teacher Tang.” Although Lan Xuanyu was a little helpless, he was being forced to carry a huge burden! But since things had come to this, there was nothing else to say. When he would see Elder Shu later, he would ask him what kind of problem the old man’s 1,000-year lifespan was.
“Teacher, can we join the School of Life too, then?” Lan Mengqin’s eyes sparkled. Not paying for cultivating at Sea God Lake; the benefits were simply too great.
Tang Yue looked at her and said indifferently, “Joining our School of Life is difficult, but it is also simple. Just looking at the same thing, it is one’s affinity for life energy. We believe that people with strong affinity for life are naturally kind. Of course, it is not to say that people with weak affinity for life are not kind. But we only accept people with a strong life energy affinity. I have already observed the few of you. Other than that fatty’s life affinity which has increased a lot with the little ape, the rest of you have average life affinity and do not meet the requirements.”
Lan Mengqin couldn’t help but pout. This requirement to join really left her helpless! She was born with it, and hard work was useless. Fatty could actually make it?
Lan Xuanyu said, “Teacher Tang, if I let Fatty join, will you return the 30 purple emblems? He will be considered one of us in the future.”
Tang Yue said in annoyance, “Do you think this is a business deal? Do you think I’m the one who runs it? Your situation is special. Even if he joins, he can only be considered a reserve member. At the very least, he has to get into the Inner Court before he has the qualifications to become a part of the School of Life. At that time, he will have the chance to cultivate in Sea God Lake for free.”
Lan Xuanyu’s mouth twitched. He knew that there couldn’t be so many good things.
“Teacher Tang, we’ll start cultivating first.” As he spoke, Lan Xuanyu took out the Emperor Fruits and gave one to each of his teammates while he took one for himself.
Tang Yue immediately saw the fruit in his hand and asked curiously, “What fruit is this? Don’t eat anything rashly ! Especially things of unknown origin. Not all treasures are beneficial to the body.”
Lan Xuanyu coughed and said, “Teacher Tang, this was given to me by the heir of Beast God Di Tian, Tiger King Lan Hudie during our trip to the Elven Planet. It’s called an Emperor Fruit and can increase and purify one’s bloodline power. It seems to be quite good. I’ve already eaten one and the effect is very good. Don’t worry, it’s not dangerous.”
“Increase and purify one’s bloodline power ?” Tang Yue raised his voice and looked at the purple fruit in Lan Xuanyu’s hand in surprise.
“En en, why don’t you observe us from the side? You should be able to feel it. Everyone let’s go.” As he spoke, Lan Xuanyu was the first to jump off inside Sea God Lake.
Bai Xiuxiu and the others followed him in and immersed themselves in the lake water. Immediately, everyone was surrounded by thick life energy.
Lan Xuanyu nodded to his teammates and stuffed the fruit into his mouth. Everyone trusted him and didn’t think too much about it as they each consumed the fruit.
All of a sudden, the three Dragon God scales on Lan Xuanyu’s chest lit up and the bloodline vortex in his body revolved frantically. An extremely thick bloodline aura suddenly flourished.
After a short period of time, the others also changed.
An ice-cold aura burst forth from Bai Xiuxiu and Lan Mengqin’s bodies. A pair of gigantic blue eyes appeared behind Bai Xiuxiu, and a gigantic figure was faintly discernible. Behind Lan Mengqin, two figures were faintly discernible. One was the appearance of the Heavenly Woman, while the other was the Jade Phoenix Zither.
A valiant dragon roar resounded at this moment. Almost instantly, Liu Feng’s entire body was completely covered by white scales. Each scale emitted a glaring white light, and within the white light, there were some silver ripples as though there were bumps that were about to bore out of the scales. It was also as though there were silver lines on the scales.
