If Wen Qianyi had not always had a very good impression of Lin Ran, when she heard others propose to practice dual cultivation with her, her first thought would not be whether to agree or not, but she would probably angrily use her "Blue Dragon Sky Flame" to burn the opponent to ashes.

Wen Qianyi stared at Lin Ran with eyes wide open, her face flushed red, she bit her teeth lightly, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "Senior... I... I agree!"

She still chose to trust the senior's character. The senior had never done anything out of line so far, and this time must be the same. It was normal training, right? Although she was not sure...

"That's great, Qianyi!"

Lin Ran waved his fist excitedly and said, "If such a treasure land can be developed, our strength will definitely increase rapidly. You have the Heavenly Fire to protect your body, and I have the dual cultivation method. You can try to see how efficient you are in absorbing and converting these energies with the blessing of the Heavenly Fire."

Lin Ran definitely has no way to cure the cold poison here, but Wen Qianyi is different. She has the Heavenly Fire, a powerful force that can definitely suppress the cold poison.

Wen Qianyi felt that her whole body was scalding hot. She glanced at the deep blue water of the Binglingyu Lake for a while before she whispered, "Senior... can you turn around? I'm going down to the lake now and need to... take off my clothes..."

When she said the last part, Wen Qianyi felt like her head was smoking and she didn't dare to look at Lin Ran.

"Oh, oh, it is indeed here... How about this, I'll go wait for you outside!"

When Lin Ran saw the lake water, he understood Wen Qianyi's thoughts. After all, if his whole body caught fire during training, or his spiritual power exploded, or he was affected by the extreme cold power in the lake water, the clothes would be gone. It would be better to take them off in advance and put them on again after the training was over.

“Senior… there’s no need to do this. Just close your eyes and turn around. If any danger occurs, I can help you in time!” Wen Qianyi said with a slightly trembling voice.

"Ah... that's fine..."

Lin Ran turned around silently, closed his eyes and thought.

Seeing Lin Ran like this, Wen Qianyi gritted her teeth, hesitated for a moment, and then gently unbuttoned her dress with her slender hands, revealing an ivory-white, delicate, and curvy body.

Wen Qianyi looked towards Lin Ran and found that Lin Ran still had his back to her. She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then turned around. Her delicate jade-like toes gently scratched the deep blue water of the lake. She looked like a mermaid about to go into the water by the shore, extremely moving.

Wen Qianyi gritted her teeth and plunged into the lake with a "splash". Her evocative body was submerged in the deep blue water.

Wen Qianyi showed her little head, her cheeks still slightly red with shame. She was using her spiritual power to resist the severe cold that was coming from all around. After taking a look at Lin Ran, she closed her eyes tightly, sat cross-legged in the lake, pinched the seal for cultivation, and began to practice...

Lin Ran, on the other hand, was struggling between his conscience and his desires. He had just heard the rustling sound of someone undressing, followed by a "plop" sound. He felt the scene appear in his mind. He was a little distracted for a moment, but at the same time he also thought of the embarrassment of dual cultivation.

Not everyone is Meng Qing. No matter how much he looks at that woman Meng Qing, no matter how much he tries to touch her, she will just look at you coldly and say something cruel: "Be prepared to pay the price!"

"It seems that we can't practice like Xiaolongnu and Yang Guo in the flowers here. Qianyi definitely can't be treated with Meng Qing's method. It's really a headache!"

Lin Ran looked at such a precious land, but he couldn't practice. It was like the uncomfortable feeling of having the girl you like in front of you, but being unable to have sex with her no matter how hard you tried.

"We can only wait for Qianyi's results and see if the two of us can practice the dual cultivation technique!"

The only thing Lin Ran can do now is to wait silently.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Lin Ran was drawing circles on the wall out of boredom, when suddenly a strong wave erupted from behind him, scaring Lin Ran.

Lin Ran quickly turned around and looked behind him. In the Binglingyu Lake, a small whirlpool appeared on the lake with Wen Qianyi as the center.

As the speed of the vortex continued to accelerate, the deep blue energy in the lake water penetrated into Wen Qianyi's body. There was a layer of Azure Dragon Sky Flame on her body surface as a filter, and the cold poison in the deep blue energy was skillfully stripped away by Wen Qianyi, and the pure energy was added to the elixir in her dantian.

As pure energy entered Wen Qianyi's body, her aura continued to rise. Suddenly, an aura that was slightly stronger than before burst out from her body, causing huge waves in the lake.

At that moment, Lin Ran saw a scene that made his blood boil. It had to be said that this was indeed "a mountain looks like a peak when viewed from the front and it looks different from far and near and high and low"!

The aura that burst out permeated for a long time, then slowly retracted, and finally entered Wen Qianyi's body. A ray of burning green flame flashed in Wen Qianyi's eyes, and soon it subsided.

Wen Qianyi looked at Lin Ran with joy. She touched the lake water with her toes and leaped up nimbly, landing gently in front of Lin Ran. She said excitedly, "Senior, I have broken through to the fourth star of the Spiritual Pill Realm. My Heavenly Fire can easily refine the cold poison here!"

Seeing Wen Qianyi like this, Lin Ran quickly looked away and said awkwardly: "Qianyi, how about... putting on clothes first..."

Hearing this, Wen Qianyi looked down at her fair and tender body. Her pretty face suddenly turned red, and the fire quickly spread to her neck. She quickly took out a set of clothes from the space ring and put them on herself randomly.

After Wen Qianyi finished dressing, Lin Ran looked at her and deliberately changed the subject, saying, "How did you break through to the fourth star of the Spiritual Pill Realm in such a short time through this Ice Spirit Jade Lake?"

Wen Qianyi was still confused. When she heard Lin Ran say this, she replied in a low voice: "I was not far from a breakthrough. I tried to practice here and found that the speed of practice was so fast!"

"That's enough. It's not a good thing to increase your strength too quickly. Moreover, it's very difficult to increase your strength by one star in the Lingdan Realm. If I hadn't had the fortuitous encounter, I'm afraid I might not even be able to reach the Nirvana Realm now. You are already very powerful!" Lin Ran couldn't help but admire.

Hearing Lin Ran's words, Wen Qianyi felt a little sweet in her heart. She gently pinched her hanging black hair. She felt happier than when she broke through to the fourth star of the Spiritual Pill Realm due to Lin Ran's praise. Otherwise... should she agree to the senior's request for dual cultivation?

Thinking of this, Wen Qianyi suddenly said: "Then... Senior, when do we... start... dual cultivation?"

After Wen Qianyi finished speaking, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Lin Ran. She was afraid that the senior would think that she was not like a girl and that she was not ladylike enough...

"Dual cultivation!"

Lin Ran's eyes lit up. Although he hoped to improve his strength as soon as possible, he knew that it couldn't be done in a hurry. He smiled and said, "Forget about it today. Wait until you go back and consolidate your strength. Then I will give you the dual cultivation formula. After you comprehend it, we will try it together!"

"Oh fine!"

Wen Qianyi was a little disappointed, but soon she put on a smile and took the initiative to invite Lin Ran to visit the inner courtyard.

Lin Ran also readily agreed, and he would have to start making some reforms to the inner courtyard next.

.....

Linghua Academy, outer courtyard, Qiu Qingzi’s exclusive office.

At this time, in the office, Qiu Qingzi was entertaining people from Songling Academy and Tianli Academy. The person who came from Songling Academy was Yue Lei, who had competed with Qiu Qingzi for Lin Ran last time.

The person who came from Tianli Academy was a somewhat sloppy middle-aged man. He was sitting upright on a chair, and his whole body looked like a sharp sword, giving people a sense of sharpness.

This is the vice president of Tianli Academy, a one-star strong man in the Dragon Transformation Realm, Chen Tianhui!

Qiu Qingzi poured tea for the two deans, with a charming smile on her face, and said in a pleasant voice: "I don't know what the wind is like today, but the vice deans of Songling and Tianli academies have come to my place. I apologize for the poor hospitality."

Yue Lei was an old acquaintance, so he didn't bother to be polite with Qiu Qingzi. He raised his head and drank his tea, drinking with the spirit of a drinking contest, and laughed loudly: "I can come to see you today, Vice Dean Qiu, so there must be something. We won't waste any more words. Vice Dean Qiu, do you remember the secret realm we talked about when our five major academies held a meeting some time ago?"

"Oh, is there any new news?" Qiu Qingzi crossed her legs, took a sip of tea, and said in a soft voice.

"This news has spread to Zhongzhou and the nearby large states. This is no longer something our five major academies can handle!" Yue Lei said in a deep voice.

Hearing Yue Lei's words, Qiu Qingzi paused and frowned: "How come everyone in Zhongzhou knows about this?"

“Not only that, this time there may be many super sects that will send their most talented people to come down for training. By then, Jiezhou will be in turmoil.” Yue Lei said.

"So you guys want to..."

Qiu Qingzi has already thought of something.

Yue Lei continued Qiu Qingzi's words and said, "That's right, Vice President Qiu, Vice President Tianhui and I came here together this time in the hope of winning over Linghua Academy. When the secret realm fight comes, our three academies can join forces to fight together in order to gain more benefits in the secret realm!"

……

Chapter 107: Tianli Academy's Heavenly Ranking Competition

"Sorry, I still have to ask the dean for instructions, so I can't reply to you right away!"

Qiu Qingzi thought for a moment and did not immediately agree to the cooperation. Their Linghua Academy was too weak. Although cooperation was indeed beneficial to them, it did not mean that there were no disadvantages. Who knew if they would stab each other in the back for their own interests during the cooperation.

Seeing Qiu Qingzi like this, Yue Lei wanted to persuade her, but Chen Tianhui, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "Vice President Qiu, the Sword Sect will also come this time. Our academy has always had a good relationship with the Sword Sect. This time, with the Sword Sect here, plus the three academies joining forces, we may be able to compete with other forces."

"Sword Sect..."

Qiu Qingzi was naturally quite familiar with the super sects in the Central Region. If the Sword Sect was there, their Linghua Academy would join the Sword Sect and the camps of Songling and Tianli Academy, and they would indeed be able to fight against many forces. However, relatively speaking, their autonomy would be...

"Promise them!"

A familiar voice sounded in Qiu Qingzi's mind. Qiu Qingzi paused, and her originally hesitant attitude immediately became firm. She stretched out her hand and said with a smile on her face: "We, Linghua Academy, will join your camp. I hope we can cooperate sincerely in the future!"

"collaboration!"

The two vice presidents, Yue Lei and Chen Tianhui, also shook hands with Qiu Qingzi one by one, and after talking about some specific matters, they left Linghua City one after another.

When Qiu Qingzi saw off the two vice presidents and returned to the office, she found that Wen Bixuan, who was wearing a white dress, was already in Qiu Qingzi's office. Her cold and pretty face seemed to make the office a little colder.

When Qiu Qingzi saw Wen Bixuan, she said bluntly: "Bixuan, why should we agree to their alliance? If we do this, our Linghua Academy will most likely become their thugs and cannon fodder."

"If we work on our own, won't we become cannon fodder?" Wen Bixuan glanced at Qiu Qingzi with her cold eyes and asked this question.

This actually stumped Qiu Qingzi, as if she would indeed be cannon fodder if she worked alone. The strength of their Linghua Academy could not even be compared to those of the Sword Sect, or it could be said that there was no comparison at all.

In this fight for the secret realm, if I go it alone, I will probably just join in the fun. If I join the Sword Sect's united base camp, I might be able to get some benefits.

Seeing Qiu Qingzi standing there in a daze, Wen Bixuan continued, "Don't take this secret realm too seriously. There are too many competitors. There are only a few of us sick cats. We will go there symbolically to give the elders of the academy or talented students a chance to broaden their horizons and gain experience.

It's good to have some gains, but it doesn't matter if there are no gains. Don't let the situation like last time happen again, understand?"

"Well, I'll arrange it!"

Qiu Qingzi nodded, and suddenly asked curiously: "Bixuan, aren't you going to compete in the secret realm?"

Wen Bixuan shook her head and said, "According to the latest news from over there, only those below the Dragon Transformation Realm can enter. Those who enter the Nirvana Realm will also be suppressed in strength and will not be able to exert the power of the Nirvana Realm at all!"

"The competition in this secret realm is really fierce..."

Qiu Qingzi couldn't help but sigh. Every time a new secret realm or ancient ruins or ancient heritage was discovered, there would be a bloody storm. I wonder how many people will die this time...

……

Tianli Academy, inner courtyard.

At this time, in the inner courtyard of Tianli Academy, the lively Tianbang competition was being held.

In the largest arena in the inner courtyard of Tianli Academy, the place was bustling with people. The noise from the bustling crowd gathered into waves that resounded through the sky.

And in the center of this arena, the most eye-catching battle of the day is taking place.

Lin Chong, the darkest dark horse this year, sprinted all the way into the top 100 of the Heavenly Ranking right after entering the inner courtyard. He also continued to break people's imagination in this Heavenly Ranking competition and made it all the way to the top 16.

And today's last eye-catching battle is the last match of the top 16. As long as Lin Chong wins this match, the dark horse will be able to advance to the top eight and become the strongest freshman in history. He has achieved such an achievement right after entering the inner courtyard. No one dares to underestimate this freshman who has just been in the inner courtyard for a year.

In this inner courtyard where the strong are respected, Lin Chong's strength has been recognized by many people. But today, Lin Chong will meet the biggest obstacle he has ever encountered in the inner courtyard, Bai Jusheng, who is ranked fourth on the Heavenly List and a one-star strong man in the Lingdan Realm. At this time, Lin Chong is only an eight-star in the Hualing Realm.

With such a huge gap in strength, most people are not optimistic that Lin Chong can continue to create miracles, because it is too difficult. There is a huge gap in realms between the Spiritual Transformation Realm and the Spiritual Pill Realm.

But there are always people who are willing to believe in Lin Chong, because Lin Chong has been constantly challenging people of higher levels along the way and has defeated many people who are at a much higher level than himself. Even if facing such a huge gap this time, people still believe that Lin Chong can defeat Bai Jusheng, the fourth strongest man on the Heavenly List who has just broken through the Lingdan realm not long ago.

In the spectator seats very close to the arena, Lin Chong was about to stand up when he saw the referee call his name.

Beside him, Ye Wanxi, who was wearing a long alchemist's blue dress, tightly grasped Lin Chong's hand, her eyes filled with worry. She said softly, "If you can't win, just admit defeat, understand? This is just a game. If it doesn't work this year, we can come next year. Don't fight until you're covered in injuries!"

"Don't worry, Wanxi, I have confidence!"

Lin Chong patted Ye Wanxi's hand and spoke in a gentle tone.

Ye Qingyi, who was standing by, saw Lin Chong and his sister being so affectionate, and couldn't help but snort and said, "It's time to go on stage, you big bad guy!"

Hearing Ye Qingyi's words, Lin Chong looked towards the ring and found that the referee was calling his name. He lowered his head and kissed Ye Wanxi's hand, smiling and said, "Wait for me to come back!"

After saying that, before Ye Wanxi could react, Lin Chong stomped his foot hard on the ground. A powerful force turned Lin Chong into a shadow and he landed steadily on the ring.

Ye Wanxi looked down at the back of her hand, which seemed to still be a little warm, which made her pretty face blush. After calming down, Ye Wanxi actually did something rare, she stood up and shouted to Lin Chong: "Come on!"

When Lin Chong heard the voice, he glanced at the audience, then smiled a very sunny smile and gave Ye Wanxi a thumbs up.

The onlookers were attracted to this strange goddess who could be called a "campus beauty" at the beginning, but their hearts were broken immediately.

"Who is that campus beauty?" an excited man shouted.

Soon, a good person responded, "Don't think about it, brother. That's a new student in the Alchemy Department this year. She's already taken right after she came in. Moreover, she's already a fourth-rank alchemist at such a young age. What about you?"

"I...can't I just buy the elixir made by the goddess?!"

"That's right... I have the original elixir that the goddess refined today. It's guaranteed to be pure and new, and it still smells like elixir. Brother, do you want to buy it? It's not expensive, just a few W credits!"

Onlookers: “6!”

On the ring, Lin Chong and Bai Jusheng faced each other. He had heard of this senior who was ranked fourth on the Heavenly Ranking a long time ago. He had just broken through to the Spiritual Pill Realm this year, and the weapon this senior was good at using was a giant sword.

At this time, the huge sword was being carried on Bai Jusheng's back. Although Bai Jusheng was thin, he did not look hunched over while carrying the huge sword. Instead, his arm was straight as a peak, with a majestic and magnificent aura. The aura he exuded made Lin Chong feel a little breathless.

“Is this the strong man in the Spiritual Pill Realm?”

Lin Chong exhaled deeply. The first Lingdan Realm expert he had ever met was his father. The sense of oppression given by the other party was not as strong as that given by his father.

He couldn't help but think of what his father had said to him when he was teaching him: "Even if you are facing someone stronger than you, don't shrink back or be afraid. If you want to be a truly strong person, you shouldn't be afraid of any challenge!"

"Lin Chong, I've heard of you. Your sword is powerful, but I think my knife is more powerful!" Just as they were looking at each other, Bai Jusheng on the opposite side spoke in a hoarse voice, just like his broadsword, with a sense of majesty and domineering!

"Then let me try your sword!"

Lin Chong smiled and grasped the Qingling Sword on his back. The Qingling Sword seemed to sense Lin Chong's strong fighting spirit and made a buzzing sound. A thought came to Lin Chong's mind: "In your words, if you can't beat this kind of rookie, don't use me!"

"I will make you recognize it!" Lin Chong said with a smile.

"Since both of you are ready, let me, the old man, make the announcement!"

In the VIP seats of Tianli Academy, an old man who was drinking stood up shakily, burped, and shouted loudly: "I declare that the last match of the 16-to-8 match has officially begun!"

As the old man finished his words, the whole audience burst into cheers, and everyone stared closely at the two people on the field. This might be the most exciting game of this Tianbang competition.
