Today's test was another major failure.

Chapter 31 Spiritual Uplift

Before the head of moral education could make a move, a gust of wind swept in.

With a "click," a pair of specially made handcuffs were placed on the wrists of the moral education director.

The howling wind then subsided, and Ling Xiuqi appeared before them. He held a slightly worn, reddish-brown thin book in his hand, and looked at the head of moral education with a smile in his eyes, saying, "I didn't expect you to have a habit of collecting antiques, Director."

The moral education director's body, which had just begun to swell and turn red, returned to normal. Upon seeing the parchment book in Ling Xiuqi's hand, he hurriedly turned around to look at his back.

The suit and shirt were torn open with a huge gash, and the skin and flesh were ripped open, leaving blood everywhere.

It wasn't until this moment that the excruciating pain in her back belatedly reached her, causing her to scream repeatedly.

"This is the first time I've ever seen something buried under the skin in real life..." Ling Xiuqi flipped through a few pages, put it aside for the time being, picked up the moral education director who had fallen to the ground, and asked You Yonghuai to take away the bewildered old lady next to him as well.

After the police, whom he had called in advance, arrived with the lunchbox, You Yonghuai went to the cafeteria to pack the meal, handed it to them, and then they took the lunchbox back to the police station with the two people Ling Xiuqi had just arrested.

As for You Yonghuai and Ling Xiuqi, they remained on the campus of Wenjiang Middle School to destroy the remaining formations and search for the source of the shield emblem's repulsive aura.

Because You Yonghuai suddenly sent a message, Ling Xiuqi interrupted his process of destroying the magic array and rushed over directly. Therefore, there are still many magic arrays on campus that have not been destroyed.

Before that, the two had dinner across from the school and then came back.

On the way, they saw students sitting in the teaching building, hungry and gazing longingly at the cafeteria.

Ling Xiuqi found it amusing and stepped forward to ask, "Do you usually only eat in the cafeteria?"

"Otherwise what?" The student who was spoken to by Ling Xiuqi looked at him with some confusion, but still answered honestly, "The Moral Education Department doesn't allow us to order takeout, not even instant noodles."

"You can only eat in the cafeteria, and you can't miss a single day?"

"That's what the school requires."

Ling Xiuqi nodded thoughtfully, feeling that the students shouldn't go hungry, and said, "The fire in the cafeteria has been extinguished, so there's no major problem. Let's go eat."

Although they were very puzzled by Ling Xiuqi's identity, as soon as they heard that it was time to eat, the students immediately scattered like birds and beasts, and ran wildly towards the cafeteria again.

Looking back at the group of high school students brimming with youthful energy, Ling Xiuqi smiled slightly, opened the thin book he had confiscated from the head of moral education, read a few pages, and then casually tossed it to You Yonghuai.

"What is this?" You Yonghuai caught the thin-covered book. It felt dry to the touch, and the cover had a faint smell of blood, which made him feel uneasy.

"It records a method for enhancing one's spirituality using blood as a material." Ling Xiuqi smiled slightly, turning to look at You Yonghuai. "Perfect, isn't your spirituality quite low?"

You Yonghuai glanced through it briefly. The contents were easy to understand, as if they were written specifically for ordinary people who knew nothing about it. Even he could understand it.

However, while delighted by the simple conditions, You Yonghuai then thought of another problem: "Where will this blood come from? It seems like we can't use our own."

"Look." Ling Xiuqi raised his chin, pointed to Si Xuanyin floating beside the other party, and smiled, "As long as you don't hurt others, and both parties are completely willing, we won't care how you improve your spirituality—it's never the tool that makes mistakes, but the person's thoughts."

You Yonghuai turned his head to look at Si Xuanyin.

"Whatever." Si Xuanyin shrugged, completely unconcerned about her body. "You can drain me dry if you want, since I can't go back right now anyway."

"If I had seen it sooner, I would have collected the blood that the head of moral education spilled for you," Ling Xiuqi said half-jokingly, then reminded him, "Don't damage that book, it might still be useful."

Afterwards, You Yonghuai browsed through the contents of the thin booklet as he walked into the cafeteria, trying to find the source of his aversion.

Strangely, when I entered the cafeteria again this time, the Glory Shield Emblem did not react at all.

"It seems the student with the problem didn't come?" Si Xuanyin asked. "Can we find him?"

"Difficult." You Yonghuai scratched his head in distress, not knowing what to do.

Although there aren't many students at Wenjiang Middle School, it's impossible for You Yonghuai to recognize at a glance who just entered the cafeteria but didn't this time. Even if he could check the surveillance footage, it would definitely not be a simple task.

After telling Ling Xiuqi about the situation, the other party didn't insist, since the other party was a student and wouldn't be able to escape in a short time.

So You Yonghuai rushed to meet Ling Xiuqi and watched as the latter destroyed the formation.

The document sent by Team Leader Su didn't seem to be designed to be easy for ordinary people to understand; in fact, the harder it was for ordinary people to comprehend, the better. You Yonghuai naturally couldn't understand it, and even if he did, he wouldn't have the corresponding ability to implement it.

After running around with Ling Xiuqi all night, the two of them finally managed to destroy all the arrays they had found, even in the dark.

"We need to find a way to hire some temporary workers to do these things." Ling Xiuqi stretched and moved his somewhat tired body.

You Yonghuai was just walking and didn't feel anything.

"But we destroyed so many formations, why isn't there any reaction at all?" Ling Xiuqi surveyed the now completely dark school, slightly puzzled. "Have they already given up on this place?"

"If the concealment array has been destroyed, does that mean we can find the laboratory's location?"

Afterwards, Ling Xiuqi called Ye Qingchen and asked him to try interrogating the researchers again.

"They only know that Wenjiang Middle School's stronghold is underground, but they don't know exactly where to enter." Ye Qingchen's voice was tinged with a faint scream, which made You Yonghuai's heart tremble. But the other party didn't care. "I've tried for a long time, but I haven't found anything new. It seems that they really don't know."

"You can try looking for the brown iron door on the first floor. They said that important strongholds usually have this type of door because it provides better protection."

After getting a clue, while the students were still in evening self-study, Ling Xiuqi and You Yonghuai circled the entire first floor of the school again, but found nothing.

"...I'll have Old Ye add some extra ingredients for them later." Ling Xiuqi was very unhappy, feeling that his time had been wasted.

Just as You Yonghuai was massaging his slightly sore ankle, the potato chip on his wrist suddenly stirred.

"roar--"

An arrow suddenly appeared on the mimicry bracelet, pointing in a certain direction.

"Does it... know the location of the outpost?"
