The array formation of Zhaoming Academy is extremely tight, making it impossible to enter or leave freely.

You need to apply to go out.

However, for Wu Zhen, the formation seemed to be non-existent. He simply waved his hand, and the protective formation of the academy flickered. Then, Wu Zhen easily boarded a carriage and left Zhaoming Academy.

Before long, the carriage arrived at a restaurant on the west side of Tianbao Pavilion.

Wu Zhen, leaning on his cane, entered the second floor of the restaurant.

The shop assistants and owners in the building all greeted Wu Zhen—they had a very good impression of this generous old man!

They knew that Wu Zhen held a high position and was very powerful, but Professor Wu was always exceptionally polite and gave generous tips.

Wu Zhen smiled and responded to each question, then gracefully entered a private room.

Not long after, the door to the private room opened again, and a young man dressed as a scholar with a feather fan and a turban walked in and sat down opposite Wu Zhen.

After locking the door, the scholar immediately became very frivolous and carefree.

He crossed his legs, picked his nose, and said to Wu Zhen, "Professor Wu, what did you invite me here for again? Aren't you afraid someone will find out who you are?"

Wu Zhen frowned slightly, looked seriously at the scholar opposite him, and said, "I'll emphasize again, this time on Spirit Turtle Island, I can let Tianbao Pavilion give you a spot, allowing you to run rampant on Spirit Turtle Island. But, you are not allowed to touch my two disciples! Otherwise, don't blame me for turning against you! I don't care how many people your Qitian Alliance has, nor do I care about your so-called Boss Bru, in short, don't touch my disciples!"

The scholar swung his legs and said with a smile, "Professor Wu, didn't you already tell me about this? Don't worry, I know those two beauties are yours, your carefully cultivated delicacies. How could I dare to steal them? As long as they stay on the small island on the west side, I guarantee they will be in absolutely no danger."

Wu Zhen's expression softened, and he nodded slightly.

The scholar chuckled and continued, "Professor Wu, I'd like to invite you once again to join our Qitian Alliance! Look, there are so many two-horned sheep here. As long as we control the Great Manchu Kingdom and launch a war, we can feast to our hearts' content, eating whatever we want, whatever kind we want! How can you possibly get enough to eat while you're just staring at those two young women?"

Wu Zhen chuckled coldly and said, "I'm not like you idiots! You're just a bunch of brainless, food-eating excrement machines, but I only enjoy delicious food! As for the other two-horned sheep, they're all garbage in my eyes!"

The scholar wasn't angry. He chuckled and said, "Regardless, Professor Wu, our Boss Bru has repeatedly extended an olive branch to you, hoping you'll join the Qitian Alliance! In this entire Southern Region, there aren't many Holy Demons with wisdom like us. If you and Boss Bru can unite, then there's nothing to worry about! Even those law enforcers from the Tianhai Sect might not be able to stop you!"

Wu Zhen shook his head and chuckled coldly, saying, "I naturally have better ways to deal with the enforcers of Tianhai Sect. Furthermore, I'll emphasize again, I will never associate with you gluttonous fools!"

After saying that, Wu Zhen got up, picked up his cane, and left the private room.

The moment he stepped out, he reverted to his dignified, refined, and smiling appearance as an elderly man.

The scholar glanced at Wu Zhen's retreating figure, couldn't help but spit, and muttered, "What a load of rubbish! I hate those Holy Demons of the Moro lineage, they're all such hypocrites! Just eating a person, and they're so picky! But this time on Spirit Turtle Island, I'll finally get a truly good meal! Those who come to the island are all young and talented geniuses, not only delicious but also with limitless potential!"

Inside Zhaoming Academy.

Chen Yang didn't tell Qin Yuwei about Wu Zhen, not because he didn't trust her, but because he noticed that both Qin Yuwei and Bai Lu had immense respect and closeness to their mentor, and unconditionally trusted him.

If the truth is told to Qin Yuwei, she will definitely reveal her true colors during their subsequent interactions.

Currently, at least for now, that elite alien demon poses no threat to Qin Yuwei and Bai Lu.

As for the birthmarks on their buttocks, they are most likely related to this alien demon.

However, what is the purpose of this birthmark?

Chen Yang truly did not know.

Chen Yang took a deep breath, then turned and entered the library of Zhaoming Academy.

What I can do right now is to improve my strength as much as possible, reach the Great Perfection of the Golden Body Realm as soon as possible, and then start trying to establish my foundation.

If he could reach the Transcendent Foundation Establishment Realm, Chen Yang believed he wouldn't be intimidated by Wu Zhen.

After sitting down, Chen Yang opened the Zhaoming Technique manual and continued browsing.

When Qin Yuwei saw that Chen Yang was seriously planning to start cultivating the Zhaoming Technique from scratch, she was speechless.

However, she didn't try to persuade him any further. Instead, she found a book, sat down next to Chen Yang, and read the book with him.

Before long, Qin Yuwei couldn't help but turn her head to admire Chen Yang's handsome face.

Suddenly, she realized that Chen Yang was reading too fast; he was just skimming through the book.

Qin Yuwei shook her head helplessly.

Chen Yang was secretly delighted.

I never expected that the Wanxing Academy's prized possession, the Enlightenment Tortoise Shell Scripture, would be so amazing!

Wearing this tortoise shell, he could read the Zhaoming Manual at a glance!

Not only can they read quickly, but they also understand more deeply.

Although there are many books on the Zhaoming Technique, Chen Yang estimated that it wouldn't be long before he could enter the beginner stage.

at night.

Crystal chandeliers were lit up inside the library.

Chen Yang did not return to his dormitory, but instead studied the Zhaoming Technique overnight.

Qin Yuwei also sat obediently next to Chen Yang.

She had had her fill of pleasure yesterday, and her body is still a little recovering.

So she sat next to Chen Yang, responsible for serving tea and water, and helping him with his studies.

Around noon the next day.

Chen Yang had already read through more than two hundred volumes of the Zhaoming Jue book.

He also gained some understanding of the Zhaoming Technique.

The Zhaoming Technique is indeed practiced starting from the Qi Refining stage.

This cultivation method is upright, peaceful, and radiant. It contains no tricks or techniques. It is about absorbing the essence of light from the bright sun to cleanse one's meridians, strengthen one's blood and internal organs, and bring one's body to its most perfect state in order to build a foundation for one's Dao.

[Ding! Your Zhaoming Jue has reached the beginner level!]

[Ding! You can consume 2000 spirit stones to upgrade the Brightness Technique to Lesser Completion!]

Chen Yang was stunned when he saw the two thousand spirit stones.

He could hardly believe his eyes.

This cultivation technique requires 2000 spirit stones to advance from beginner to minor mastery?

Isn't this a complete scam?

Is the system deliberately inflating prices because it feels it's getting easier to make money?

Chen Yang counted on his fingers.

If the Zhaoming Technique were to be upgraded to the perfect and ultimate level, it would require a full 3 spirit stones!

Damn it! I should have known better than to cultivate this damn thing!

Chen Yang was speechless for a moment.

What's the point of advancing to the beginner level now?

I don't have any money. Where can I find 30,000 spirit stones?

Seeing Chen Yang suddenly look worried, Qin Yuwei couldn't help but giggle.

Qin Yuwei patted Chen Yang on the shoulder and said, "See? This is what happens when you don't listen to a beautiful woman! I told you long ago, reading like a bear picking corn is completely useless! This is a cultivation technique, not a novel! Now you're facing a problem, aren't you?"

Chen Yang shook his head, then turned to Qin Yuwei and said, "Rich woman, do you have any money left? I still need 30,000 spirit stones."

Qin Yuwei was taken aback, her beautiful eyes showing confusion.

She looked at Chen Yang speechlessly and said, "Chen Yang, are you crazy? I gave you 39,000 spirit stones, did you spend all of them? Besides, how could I possibly have 30,000 spirit stones? As the manager of Tianbao Pavilion, I only get 700 spirit stones a month. Your 30,000 spirit stones are four years' salary for me."

Chen Yang sighed helplessly and said, "What am I going to do? Where can I find a rich woman as good as you again? I really want to sell myself to her."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yuwei laughed in anger.

She pinched Chen Yang's mouth and said, "Shut up! You can't be so casual! I have to keep an eye on you for your wife; you can't just sell yourself like that!"

"However, if you want spirit stones, I do know where you can get them."

Chen Yang's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Where are you going to get 30,000 spirit stones? Are you going to rob us?"

Qin Yuwei shrugged and said, "You can't steal it even if you try, but you can borrow it from our dean. Hehehe, aren't you her gigolo? It's a perfectly legitimate reason to ask for spirit stones, so you can just go along with it."

Chen Yang glared at Qin Yuwei speechlessly and said, "You're really putting on a show! I'd like to shamelessly ask Dean Qi for them, but do you think she has that many spirit stones?"

Qin Yuwei nodded and said, "She definitely has it! To be precise, although our beautiful dean doesn't have it, our Zhaoming Academy does! Every year, Zhaoming Academy awards scholarships of 30,000 spirit stones as an incentive for outstanding students. These 30,000 spirit stones should be with Dean Qi right now. You can borrow them first and pay them back later."

Chen Yang's eyes lit up.

He quickly gave Qin Yuwei a hard kiss and said, "Little girl, you've done me a huge favor! Okay, I'm going to find rich lady Qi Yue now!"

Qin Yuwei's face turned bright red.

Chen Yang hurried to Qi Yue's office building.

Tomorrow is the day we go to Linggui Island.

Chen Yang plans to upgrade the Zhaoming Technique to the perfect stage today, so that he can officially enter the peak of the Golden Viscera Realm and prepare for the Foundation Establishment breakthrough.
