Upon hearing what Teacher Liu said, Tang Cheng immediately looked at Lin Jingge.
“Gege, I’ll stay with you…” Tang Cheng helped Lin Jingge up.
"No need, you go back first, I can stand up." Lin Jingge gently pushed Tang Cheng away.
After resting for a while, and with the pills Tang Cheng gave her working quickly, Lin Jingge now had a lot of strength left, enough to stand on her own and stop swaying.
"I don't want to! I want to be with you!" Tang Cheng said.
"Be good," Lin Jingge coaxed Tang Cheng helplessly, watching as the other's eyes reddened again.
The difference between pre-training students and formal students is only two words, but their treatment is vastly different.
Official students receive instruction from teachers and enjoy the cultivation benefits provided by the academy.
The prospective students, on the other hand, have nothing. They not only have to pay for many things themselves, but they also have to complete some tasks assigned by the academy each month.
The tasks aren't difficult and don't involve life or death, but they are all incredibly complicated. You're forced to do three each month, and the contribution points are far less than those of other characters.
If Tang Cheng were to actually follow her, not to mention whether the academy would agree, even she herself would feel guilty.
Friendship should not be built on the sacrifices made by others.
"But I..."
"Alright, just think of it as taking advantage of the academy. You get a subsidy of 100 mid-grade spirit stones a month. I might even need your help later." Lin Jingge joked, "You can teach me everything you learn in class. If you come with me, then no one will be able to teach me."
"But Lin Fu and the others..."
"No buts, alright, alright, it's decided then." Lin Jingge patted Tang Cheng on the shoulder, letting her leave with Lin Fu and the others.
Tang Cheng turned her head back twice with each step.
Lin Jingge smiled at Tang Cheng, then walked steadily toward the group in front of her.
On the other side, when he heard Teacher Liu mention him, Manager Qian smiled like Maitreya Buddha, his earlobes were very large.
He walked over to the group of people who were standing there.
"I am Manager Qian, who is in charge of the pre-enrollment students. From now on, you will follow me. You can report any problems you have in life to me. The obligations and rules for pre-enrollment students are all on the jade slips issued to you upon enrollment. Now, everyone, follow me to change your identities." Manager Qian gave a few instructions with a smile.
He then ordered these people to go to the place where they had initially enrolled.
The group of people each took out their spirit cards.
The teachers in the hall checked all the spirit cards and, after confirming that everything was correct, released the person back.
Lin Jingge followed the trainees who had failed the challenge to their accommodation.
Looking at the place that resembled a thatched hut, Lin Jingge subconsciously compared it to the place she had lived before.
It's a world of difference.
They used to live in a mansion! And it was protected by a formation.
Looking at the place in front of her, if she weren't told it was a residence, Lin Jingge would have thought it was an abandoned place waiting to be demolished.
"Well, Manager Qian said that the new accommodations are already under construction, so we'll stay here for now," the people leading the way said somewhat awkwardly, seeing the awkward situation.
Although that's what they said, they weren't really sure about it.
Keep in mind that more than half a month has passed; even the best place to live should be repaired by now!
The rest
The trainees also understood the newcomers.
After all, they had the same expression when they first arrived.
Most of them were used to a life of luxury, and even after more than half a month, they were still somewhat unaccustomed to it.
But they were unwilling to go back just like that.
Everyone knows that the reason why the major academies are so famous is because they control 70% to 80% of the cultivation resources of the Cloud Cauldron Continent.
Take spirit stone mines, for example; they're all controlled by these academies.
Noble families struggled to survive under the spotlight of the top academies.
Lin Jingge walked ahead.
The thatched huts here were clearly temporary structures. After all, no one expected things to turn out this year.
Lin Jingge randomly chose a place to stay, pushed open the door, and was about to go inside to tidy up when she heard a voice behind her: "Manager Qian said he has something to tell you. We need to meet at the Mission Hall at sunset today."
There were only three girls present. Lin Jingge responded and pushed the door open to enter.
I could vaguely hear another woman complaining behind me: "My God, it's so dirty in here, how are we going to clean it up?!"
Another woman, who was originally a trainee, rolled her eyes when she heard this complaint, said nothing, and turned to go into her own room.
An afternoon was enough for Lin Jingge to clean the house.
She looked at the somewhat worn-out quilts, remained silent for a moment, and then replaced them all with those from her own space.
It saves you the trouble of cleaning.
If you didn't see the outside of the house, you would think it was a cozy little home.
After cleaning, Lin Jingge sat cross-legged on the bed and began to cultivate, while also using her spiritual power to heal her injuries.
The method of using wood-based spiritual power to heal injuries was something Lin Jingge learned from the pharmacopoeia.
As she progressed through the pharmacopoeia, she discovered that the recipes listed there were not just about preparing decoctions; those were merely the most basic methods.
The rest can only be seen when one's cultivation level reaches a certain point.
Lin Jingge only saw some of the later content when she broke through to the mid-stage of the Great Spirit Master.
It wasn't until she saw these contents that she understood why this pharmacopoeia had become a treasured heirloom passed down through generations of the Lin family.
Even the decline of the Lin family is probably related to the competition with other families for this pharmacopoeia!
However, all of this was just Lin Jingge's conjecture.
Time always flies when you're practicing.
[It's time for Gege to go out.] Xiaoshi, worried that Lin Jingge would miss the time, jumped on Lin Jingge's head to remind her.
Lin Jingge opened her eyes and circulated her spiritual energy throughout her body. She suddenly realized that her injuries had healed.
She was slightly surprised.
The methods in the pharmacopoeia are effective, but they don't work this quickly! What does it mean that those serious injuries were healed in just one afternoon? Doesn't that mean that she can casually make a cut on her hand and it will instantly heal completely?
[Hey, stop thinking about it! Look at the sky outside, the sun is almost setting, let's hurry up!] Xiao Shi urged again when he saw that Lin Jingge hadn't made any move.
"Okay, okay, I know!" Lin Jingge got out of bed, pushed open the door, and hurriedly ran out.
Unlike the outside world, the academy cannot be flown here; one can only walk. No matter how fast one walks, it is definitely not as fast as flying, which is why Xiao Shi was so urging at the beginning.
Fortunately, Lin Jingge arrived at the mission hall just before sunset.
Manager Qian and some students were already waiting here.
Lin Jingge quickly stepped forward.
After counting the number of people, Manager Qian began to explain some rules.
