He was late at that time. By the time he arrived at the examination hall, it was only three and a half hours til the end.
Xu Jin said.

How could it be!
Han Miao Shuang cried out in astonishment,
Three and a half hours to refine the green lotus pill? Master, are you sure of the time?


Is your Master such a casual person?
Xu Jin glared at her and continued,
He could refine the green lotus pill in such a short time because of his various refining methods. When I saw him, he can refine up to ten kinds of herbs at a time.


Ten kinds!
Han Miao Shuang and Su Xiao Xiao both sucked in a mouthful of cold air. Jiang Jun Zhe’s eyes became serene and clear.

Elder martial brother can only refine eight kinds of herbs at the same time. He can do ten! Is his level of alchemy higher than that of elder martial brother?
Su Xiao Xiao exclaimed.



It doesn’t mean that way.
Xu Jin said,
There is no direct relationship between various refining methods and levels. Jun Zhe has practiced for so many years. The difference is in age. Even if he didn’t surpass you, I don’t think he’s far from you. Hmph hmph, you guys don’t practice all day. You either eat or sleep all day long. Hmph hmph, look, you’ve been overtaken.


I’ve decided!
Han Miao Shuang jumped from her chair scaring Sima You Yue who happened to walk into the courtyard.

Senior sister, what have you decided?
Sima You Yue walked over and asked.

I decided to watch you refine pills!
Han Miao Shuang announced as she put both her hands on her waist.

Eh?
Sima You Yue looked at everyone else. How did their view of her suddenly change when she just went out for a bit?
Han Miao Shuang went over and put her hand around her neck and asked,
Little junior brother, be honest, what’s your alchemy level?


Seventh grade! What’s wrong?
Sima You Yue glanced puzzledly at Han Miao Shuang.

How old are you?
Su Xiao Xiao asked.

Soon, I’ll be thirty.
She rubbed her nose.
Thirty! On the earth, I’m an old leftover girl. But here, with a lifespan of thousands of years, I’m just like a baby.


Han Miao Shuang was speechless. She patted Sima You Yue on the shoulder and said,
When I was 30, I was just promoted to be a fifth grade alchemist. At that time, I thought I was very powerful, but now it seems that I was too arrogant. Fortunately, you are my junior brother, or I will want to pat you to death. Ah, no more rambling. I have to practice well. I’m so jealous of you.


Senior sister….
Sima You Yue had nothing to refute. Where was her jealousy?

Mm, I’ve decided.
Han Miao Shuang let Sima You Yue go.
Tonight, I won’t eat, instead I’ll refine pills.

After she finished, she actually headed to the alchemy room.

I’ll go as well.
Jiang Jun Zhe felt the pressure for the first time. In the words of Han Miao Shuang, fortunately, this was his junior brother, or he might really want to smack her to death!

Master, I cleaned the courtyard. I’ll also go refine.
After Su Xiao Xiao stored everything away, he paid his respects to Xu Jin before leaving.
Sima You Yue observed the courtyard suddenly emptied, but she didn’t expect that her presence would stimulate them to go practice alchemy. She looked at Xu Jin. He must have told them something about her for them to be like this.

Did you contact the divine devil valley?
Xu Jin automatically bypassed her suspicious eyes.

Mm, martial uncle has been anxious about master’s whereabouts, yet he couldn’t contact him. Why did master go to the inner regions?


He had to deal with something.
Xu Jin didn’t want to continue this topic.



Oh, if there’s nothing else, I’m returning to my room.
Sima You Yue spoke.

How could there be nothing?
Xu Jin stood up from his chair. He stretched his waist and said,
Let’s go and I’ll take you to see the director. You’ve asked for such a long leave, but now you’re back. Naturally you want to see him. I’ll show you around the sect again by the way.

Sima You Yue followed Xu Jin out. Those who were gathered outside did not dare to approach her when they saw her.
Xu Jin was the most difficult and special teacher in the inner sect. He and Hong Fa were known as the two freaks in the inner sect. No one dared to offend them.
When she saw their appearances, Sima You Yue took a deep breath and swaggered on out.
Xu Jin directly led her to the director’s office. When the director saw her, his eyes twinkled. Then he smiled and threw a box to Xu Jin, which he gave to her.
She opened the box. She saw that there was a thin book, a token and a rare spirit stone in it.
The spirit stone is your cultivation resource and the token is your identification. As for that book, you should study it carefully after you go back.
The director said.
Sima You Yue took out the book, turned to the title page, and seeing the four big characters on it, she couldn’t help but raise the corners of her mouth.

Inner Sect Rules!




Does everyone get this?
She waved the book in her hand and asked.

No, only individual students.
The director said. At the same time, he added in his heart, only those students who like to make trouble.
And Sima You Yue had been included in the troublemaker group by him.
Sima You Yue also guessed the same. She rolled her eyes in her heart. She was obviously innocent. Those people of thunderbolt team started it first. Although he was crippled, he also asked for it. How could she become a problematic student?

Old Mao, are you only sending him off with a spirit stone? What about the other things?
Xu Jin directly demanded from Mao San Quan.

None.
Mao San Quang waved his hands at Xu Jin in dismissal. You know those things can only be used when the freshmen first arrived. He missed the opportunity, so those things have been sealed.


Since they’re sealed, they can be opened again.
 Xu Jin insisted.

But the blood lake is of no use to him. Why do you want to violate the sect’s rule?
Mao San Quan refuted.
As for the cultivation pagoda, you know it has been used up by the freshmen.

Xu Jin glanced at Sima You Yue. He could also tell that that her body was stronger than normal people. The blood lake was most likely useless to her.

As the best student of the sect, shouldn’t the sect express itself when entering? Those people who either soak in the blood lake and isolate themselves in the cultivation pagoda. They can’t give her nothing?
Xu Jin was perverse.
Even if the blood lake is useless to him, it’s always good to be able to soak in it. Don’t you think so, Old Mao?



Didn’t I give him the spirit stone?
 Mao San Quan glared back.

It’s only one spirit stone. Can you even accept this? Are my students short of spirit stones? If you want to give one, then give a better one!
Xu Jin walked towards Mao San Quan’s desk and sat on it. He didn’t have the image of a teacher, rather he appeared more like a gangster.
