Although more than ten years have passed and his mother's face has become blurred in his memory, when he saw her again, he remembered her all of a sudden!
How could that be? Didn't Mom also die of illness shortly after Dad passed away? Or was it just someone who looked like her?
Wang Chuci subconsciously chased after her, but unfortunately the carriage had already started moving. He chased after her: "Wait, Madam, please stay!"
"Don't listen to him, let's go!" The voice of the maid named Chuntao came from the carriage.
The carriage drove away quickly. Chuntao stuck her head out of the window and made a smug face at Wang Chuci.
Wang Chuci chased for a while, but now he had no cultivation, how could he catch up with the cart pulled by the spirit beast?
He clenched his fists, and finally stopped helplessly, watching the carriage go away.
When he returned to the store, a clerk who was close to him asked, "Why did you run out just now?"
Wang Chuci was somewhat distraught: "I saw an old friend and wanted to ask about her situation, but I didn't catch up with her."
"Maybe we'll meet again next time." The guy comforted him.
Wang Chuci thought that the lady had just subscribed to the store membership and still had nearly 500 spirit stones in her pocket. She would definitely come back next time. But then he thought that the lady obviously had no shortage of money and might not care about the 500 spirit stones. So what if she didn't come?
However, the pills and ointments in the Pill Pavilion are very effective, and she will definitely come back to buy them after using them.
But she might not come to buy it in person. She might send a servant. In that case, he wouldn't be able to see her and wouldn't be able to confirm it with her in person.
Wang Chuci's mind was full of mixed thoughts, sometimes happy and sometimes worried, until the guests arrived, he finally cheered up and responded.
Qing Yuan had been secretly following Wang Chuci, so she naturally knew what happened in the store today.
She immediately sent someone to inquire about the identity of the lady wearing a veiled hat.
The reason why the black market had been able to exist for so many years without being cut off by the Zhou family was because of their good intelligence work and their well-informed information.
The person Qing Yuan sent out quickly replied.
"That lady is known to the public as Madam Lin. She is actually the concubine of Wang Jian, the second master of the Wang family. However, she also has another identity. She was the wife of Wang Chong, a member of the Wang family's branch clan twelve years ago. She was Zhou. Wang Chong was pulled over by Wang Jian to take the blame and was severely injured by a monster. He died not long after returning.
"Zhou was so grief-stricken that she fell seriously ill. At this time, Wang Jian threatened her with her six-year-old son, demanding that she become his woman. If she refused, he would kill her son. Zhou had no choice but to agree, but she didn't want her son to know about it, so she faked her death and changed her name to Lin.
"Wang Chuci is the son of Wang Chong and Zhou. Over the years, Zhou has been secretly keeping an eye on Wang Chuci, but Wang Jian rarely lets her go out and even sends people to watch her, so her news lags behind. She only recently learned that Wang Chuci's cultivation was abolished and he left the Wang family. Today, she came to see him specifically."
After hearing this, Qing Yuan said: What a big pot of blood.
She immediately told Xue Huan about this and asked, "Xiaoxian, should we tell Wang Chuci about this?"
Xue Huan: "Not for now, let's wait and see what happens."
"good."
The end of the semester is approaching, and every grade in the college will have to undergo a semi-annual assessment. Those who usually don't study hard have to work hard now. Although Xue Huan ranks among the top in all subjects, the final examination will not only test the grades of each subject, but also a practical test.
In actual combat, you cannot use magic tools, talismans or other external objects, and can only rely on your own strength to win.
In this case, Xue Huan couldn't guarantee that she would still be the first.
So during this period of time, she stayed in the monster spawning area on the sixth floor of the Tower of Babel, constantly training her combat skills.
To be honest, grades don’t mean much to her, but the reward for being the first in each class at Lingyao College really makes her excited.
The first place winner can go to the 50th floor of the Tower of Babel to practice for ten days.
The speed of time flowing inside the 50th floor of the Tower of Babel is different from that outside. One month inside is equal to one day outside!
Moreover, the spiritual energy inside is extremely rich, so rich that it condenses into mist.
Comparable to her space.
So, practicing for ten days inside is equivalent to practicing for ten months outside! Almost a year!
These extra ten months are enough to leave students of similar level far behind.
For someone like Xue Huan, who has no bottleneck in cultivation and only needs to continuously accumulate spiritual energy, this kind of cultivation environment is what she has always dreamed of!
How could she not be tempted?
So she is sure to get the first place!
At the beginning, it was Pei Ji who trained with her, under the pretext of helping her overcome her weaknesses. However, as the training went on, things started to go awry.
So Xue Huan simply didn't want him to spar with her.
Another point is that the difference in strength between the two of them was too great. When he was fighting against her, he didn't put in any effort at all. It was as if he was just playing with her, making her feel no sense of urgency or crisis. How could he improve in the battle like this?
But it’s different in the Tower of Babel. The monsters don’t care whether she is weak or beautiful. They will attack her directly with killing moves, with the purpose of eating her!
Every minute and every second she fought with them, she felt the threat of death.
In this case, her progress was rapid and noticeable.
After being killed, the monsters would turn into smoke and disappear, making her think for a moment that she was not fighting, but playing a real online game. This is why she jokingly called this floor the monster spawning area.
However, when those monsters were still alive, the reality could not be faked, forcing her to deal with them with all her strength.
Monsters also have different levels of strength. When Xue Huan becomes proficient in defeating low-level monsters and they no longer pose any threat to her, she will change the map.
In this way, she fought monsters during the day and enjoyed Pei Ji's full range of massage services at night. Her cultivation and strength were steadily improving.
Amidst everyone's anticipation and anxiety, the half-year assessment arrived.
The six subjects to be assessed in the Yellow Class are: spells, talismans, formations, pills, weapons and actual combat.
Each subject is worth 10 points, with a total score of 60 points. Students who score below 36 points will fail and will be held back. If they fail twice in a row, they will be expelled.
There are a total of twenty-four students in the yellow class that Xue Huan is in, but there are also three other yellow classes consisting of repeaters, so there are a total of one hundred and ten candidates in the yellow class.
Xue Huan was confident that she had the ability to take first place in the class, but she was a little unsure whether she could beat everyone else to take first place.
Although those old students were repeaters, since they were able to be admitted to Lingyao College, it shows that they have good abilities and talents. There may be many reasons for being repeated, such as not studying well, or having poor academic performance, etc.
Repeating a grade doesn't mean that their abilities are poor.
Two days later, the tests on spells, talismans, formations, pills, and weapons were all completed. Xue Huan achieved full marks, the only one among the four yellow-letter classes to achieve full marks. Even if she did not take part in the last practical test, she was still a sure thing in this test.
But what she wants is first place, so she'd better get first place in the last practical test!
