Chapter 156: No Women, No Joy
early morning.

In front of Hu Qian's study, the open space in front of the door was already filled with quite a few people, gathering in groups of three or four and whispering. There were not only students who passed the selection competition, but also many students who came to watch and see them off standing around the open space. The atmosphere seemed a bit noisy.

Suddenly, the lively atmosphere gradually quieted down a little. Feeling the change in the atmosphere around them, some students looked up in surprise, only to see a man and two women appear in the open space in the middle. The area within three meters around them seemed like a restricted area and no one dared to approach.

"Xun'er, Xian'er, am I that scary?" Looking at the small open space around him and the awe-filled glances falling on him, Xiao Bai was speechless. It seemed that he had never done anything to bully men and women in Canaan College, right?

"Hehe." Xun'er covered her mouth and laughed sweetly: "Brother Xiao Bai, don't you know? Now you are very famous in this outer courtyard. I don't know what those rumors are about. They say that you are powerful, cruel and ruthless, and..."

"And what?" Seeing Xun'er blushing, Xiao Bai was really a little curious.

"And I can't be happy without women!" The little doctor's eyes were filled with shyness, and a faint blush rose on her pretty face, like the morning glow in the sky, so moving!

"Nonsense! Which bastard spread rumors about me?" Xiao Bai was furious. He was still obsessed with women. He wanted to, but his spear had been sealed up and had never been used. How could he be obsessed with women? Wasn't this just a poke at people's hearts?
"Okay! They must have seen that you are living with Teacher Ruolin, and that there are beautiful women coming and going. It's not surprising to hear such rumors!" The Little Medical Fairy gently pulled his hand and said softly.

"Is that so?" Xiao Bai nodded in understanding. It seems that no matter in the past life or now, this kind of gossip is inevitable in student days!
"Huh? Xian'er, you are praising yourself!" Then, Xiao Bai looked at Xiao Yixian with a teasing look and said jokingly.

"Isn't Xian'er beautiful?" The little medical fairy's eyes were dim and her voice seemed full of resentment.

"Beautiful, of course she is!" Xiao Bai nodded in affirmation. Although he knew she was pretending, he still felt a little distressed when he saw her weak and sad expression. "My fairy, you are as bright as spring flowers, as beautiful as jade flowers, as bright as the autumn moon, and as pretty as a flower. How can you describe her as beautiful as a flower and jade?"

After hearing this, the resentful look on Little Medical Fairy's pretty face disappeared instantly, becoming bright, with her autumn-water eyes carrying a charming smile.

Just when Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief, a burning gaze shot over and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"Of course, there is also my Xun'er, who is gorgeous and charming, hard to be matched by other beauties, and has an exquisite beauty and a natural beauty!"

Xun'er's expression instantly relaxed, a faint smile appeared at the corners of her rosy lips, her beautiful eyes narrowed into a beautiful crescent, and she glared at him gently, as if to say, that's good enough!

Xiao Bai then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, secretly rejoicing in his heart, it was a close call, if his brain had crashed and he was at a loss for words in an instant, he would have been in trouble. Fortunately, there were only two, if there was one more, he would have almost failed. In fact, the fact that he could come up with these words was a blessing from the gods and Buddhas!
The male students who had been secretly observing the place nearby looked at Xiao Bai as if he were a god, and instantly had the urge to become his disciple. Thinking back to the time when they met their female classmates on weekdays, they would say "you are so pretty" to your face, and "you are so pretty with fair skin and long legs" from behind.

Vulgar. It's really too vulgar!

I had to write it down quickly, savoring it while writing it down, shaking my head from time to time, feeling deeply moved. Look at how he complimented her with these words, no wonder two such beautiful girls are surrounding him!

At this moment, the tightly closed study opened, and Hu Qian walked out slowly with several old men. The open space in front of the door suddenly became quiet and silent.

Hu Qian glanced at the fifty students in the open space. Seeing that no one was absent, he nodded with satisfaction, stepped forward, and said loudly: "Dear students, today is the day you enter the Inner Court. On behalf of the Outer Court, I would like to congratulate you. Your long-term efforts have finally paid off!"

"After entering the Inner Court, you may not be able to adapt to the training methods there, but I am sure that you can unleash your potential to the greatest extent there. I am not exaggerating. Some of you have had contact with the students in the Inner Court. I believe you should know how huge the gap is between what you are like before entering and what you are like after you come out of there!"

After hearing what the vice president said, some students nodded in agreement, while more people were full of expectation and excitement. They worked hard, wasn't it just to pursue a stronger power? No matter how uncomfortable they were, they would persist.

"Before entering the inner courtyard, I will send you to a place!" Hu Qian smiled mysteriously, looked at the dozen black shadows flying down from the blue sky, waved his hand and said in a clear voice: "Get on the griffin!"

"We still need griffins? Is this inner courtyard very far away?" Someone among the students murmured in confusion.

Only a very small number of people looked a little solemn, for they knew that the next thing would be the "welcome" ceremony in the inner courtyard!

"Okay, five people in a group, remember to sit on the chairs. If you don't have the cultivation of a great fighting master, don't try to stand on the griffin!" Hu Qian watched someone trying to stand under the griffin, but he did lose his footing and fell down. After laughing, he turned to Xiao Bai and the others and said, "The first five, you are in the same group, go up!"

"Let's go!" Xiao Bai called out to the two girls, and then he stepped lightly. After disappearing like lightning, he reappeared on the griffin, standing steadily, not moving at all. Xiao Yixian and Xun'er looked at each other, and hurriedly followed, their delicate bodies landing lightly beside Xiao Bai.

This scene made the students who had tried it before feel jealous. Only they knew how difficult it was to stand on these damn feathers!

After bringing everyone up, the griffin flapped its wings, and as the shadow on the ground became smaller and smaller, it slowly took off into the air.

"Xiao Bai, Xun'er, Xian'er, come on! Remember to come back when you have time!" When the griffin took off, a gentle voice suddenly came from below. Xiao Bai and the other two looked down and found that it was Instructor Ruolin, followed by Xiao Yu, Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei. Seeing the three of them looking down, they smiled and waved.

"Brother Xiao Bai, what did you give to Teacher Ruolin yesterday?" Xun'er asked while waving her little hand in response.

"It's just some elixirs to help with cultivation. Xiao Yu and the others also have some!" Xiao Bai said softly as he looked at the figure below that was getting smaller and smaller.

"No wonder he was gone yesterday, it turns out he went to refine pills!" Xun'er nodded in sudden realization.

"Well! You guys want to practice, so I went to the Alchemy Department for a walk and made some for them. The ones given to Teacher Ruolin and Xiao Yu are to help with practice. Xiao Ning and Xiao Mei also got one, a Qi Gathering Powder each! Teacher Ruolin has always been nice to us, so we have to show some appreciation when we leave this time. As for Xiao Yu and the others, they all came from the Xiao family after all, so we should help them as much as we can!"

Xun'er looked at the person beside her, a touch of tenderness appeared in her eyes. She hugged his arm and said sweetly, "Brother Xiao Bai is really thoughtful. Why didn't Xun'er think of it!" "Come on, girl. It seems that you also had to give something to Teacher Ruolin this morning, right?" Xiao Bai looked at the pretty girl beside him with a smile and gently pinched her pretty face.

"Hehe. Teacher Ruolin refused. She said that you had already given them very valuable things yesterday. If she accepts them again, she would be ashamed to face people as a teacher!" Xun'er rubbed Xiao Bai's palm with her little face and smiled cutely.

"Um... Xiao Baixue... Student Xiao Bai, excuse me, I want to ask you, do you really want to establish a force in the inner courtyard?" At this moment, a female voice with a slightly timid tone sounded behind him.

Turning around, he saw the woman who had entered the library with him that day standing behind him. Xiao Bai stepped forward to talk to her as if he had mustered up the courage. Xiao Bai did not have much impression of this woman. He only remembered that her name was Xu Su. Now he looked at her carefully for a moment. She was wearing a yellow dress and had a slim figure. She did not look like a cultivator, but more like a lady from a wealthy family who never left the house.

"I do have this idea!" Xiao Bai nodded in the woman's slightly expectant eyes.

"Great! Can I join?" The woman's face lit up. Seeing Xiao Bai's frown, she hurriedly whispered, "Don't worry, I'm very useful. I know a little bit about many things in the inner courtyard. If you want to build a power, you need to know about all aspects, don't you?"

"You just entered the inner courtyard this year, right?" Xiao Bai's eyes were full of doubt. Not to mention that she had never been to the inner courtyard, even if she had entered, unless she was an inner courtyard student who had specifically learned about it, it would be unlikely for her to dare to say that she knew many things about the inner courtyard.

"His brother was second on last year's ranking!" Before the woman could speak, a dull voice sounded from behind her.

"Second on the strong list? Last year?" Xiao Bai glanced at Tu Shan who had just spoken in surprise, and looked at the woman in the yellow skirt in front of him.

"The strong list is from the inner courtyard." Seeing Xiao Bai's confusion, the woman thought he didn't understand the inner courtyard and was about to explain.

"You don't have to explain to me. I know the strong list, but what about last year's second place?" Xiao Bai waved his hand to interrupt the woman's explanation and asked.

“Uh,” the woman smiled awkwardly, looking a little embarrassed, and whispered, “He graduated last year and originally wanted to stay in the academy, but until graduation, he couldn’t beat the number one, and that number one was a little girl. He couldn’t stand the blow, so he went home!”

Xiao Bai nodded, feeling emotional in his heart. He didn't expect that two years earlier, this little dragon was still so powerful and dominated the list!

"Then your brother should have built a stronghold! Why doesn't he go there?"

Xiao Bai also learned some information from some elders. He knew that those people in the top ten of the strong list were golden signs in the inner courtyard. They would have more or less people joining them, and they spent a lot of time in the Tianfen Refining Qi Tower. They needed some people to help them deal with other things, so most of them would set up a force to assist themselves. After all, as long as they were listed, someone would take care of the rest. Why not do it?

"Uh" the woman looked a little hesitant, not knowing what to say.

"Hey! Let me tell you! It is said that the last time Senior Xu Qingshan, her brother, challenged the number one on the power list, the number one powerhouse got a little impatient and beat him up, saying that he was just that."

"What did you say? Just tell me! Why are you hesitating?" Xiao Bai frowned. What could the little dragon say? He looked like he didn't know what to say.

"She said he was destined to be the second best. Don't bother her anymore. She also said the Qingshan Gang should just be renamed the Second Best Gang!" Tu Shan gritted his teeth and said, "Because of this, Senior Xu Qingshan couldn't stand the strange looks from others after that. He graduated in anger and the gang was disbanded!"

".!" Xiao Bai thought it was no big deal, and he hesitated. The little dragon was simple-minded, and he said the second one meant the second place, but others misinterpreted it and then dispersed and left.

"You came to me, you won't ask me to cause trouble for that number one, right?" Xiao Bai looked at the woman in front of him and asked with a thoughtful look.

Hearing this, the woman Xu Su hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands, saying, "No! No! My brother said that the little girl was simple-minded. He lost purely because of his lack of strength. He was convinced, but he didn't want to see those villains gossiping behind his back all day long even though they couldn't beat him. He said that seeing them made him sick, so he just left. I don't have any hatred towards the number one on the strong list. I just want to see who can defeat my proud brother and make him join you. I just don't want to be bullied in the inner courtyard!"

"Sure! If I have that idea, you will be the first elder to join!" Seeing that the girl did not seem to be lying, Xiao Bai nodded and agreed.

"Um, classmate Xiao Bai, do you think I can do it?" A rough voice sounded.

"I haven't asked you about your relationship yet?" Xiao Bai looked at the two of them. If Xu Su knew him because he had a brother, then what about Tu Shan?

"We have no relationship!" Seeing Xiao Bai looking at the two of them as if they were a couple, Xu Su quickly waved her hand to deny it.

"It really has nothing to do with it. I know all this when I went to the Black Horn Region for training last year. It happened to be Senior Xu Qingshan who led the team, and Xu Su and I happened to be in the same team, so I learned some things!" Tu Shan also hurriedly denied it, and glanced back cautiously, as if he was afraid that someone would know.

Seeing the expressions of the two men, Xiao Bai immediately understood that the two men just had some interactions, and that Tu Shan must have a lover, and that lover seemed to be right behind the team, one of the students entering the inner courtyard this time.

"I can promise you, but I have to investigate first. As for the investigation, it will be in the "welcome" ceremony in this inner courtyard. Let's see your performance!" Xiao Bai glanced at the two of them. Both of them knew some of the situations in the inner courtyard. They knew that it would be difficult to survive in the inner courtyard without a strong backer.

"Thank you, Xiao Bai!" The two were pleasantly surprised. This is a sure thing!

Amidst the casual chat, a spacious mountain stream appeared before everyone's eyes.
