“Senior sister An Yi, let me introduce to you, this is senior sister Yong Gu Yun of Mingxin Academy, senior sister Yong is helping Mingxin Academy to select students to return ……” as soon as Ning Cheng and An Yi came out, Lu Xue enthusiastically pulled An Yi over and introduced her, beside her there were already several people gathered around The first thing that I would like to say is that I’m not going to be able to do this.
Le Bo Hong and the others were also in the same circle as Lu Xue, and were also discussing with each other with great enthusiasm.
Ning Cheng knew that he was not in the same circle as them, those who were gathered in a circle had a cultivation level of at least the sixth Qi gathering layer, and that Yong Gu Yun was already at the peak of the eighth Qi gathering layer. In comparison, he could not hold his own in this place at the fourth level of Qi gathering. The reason why An Yi had received Lu Xue’s warm friendship was probably due to her spiritual roots. If An Yi was a miscellaneous spirit root like him, she would not be in that circle either.
An Yi originally did not talk much, and the death of her master had hit her hard. But in recent times, having followed Ning Cheng from birth to death, she had seen too many things and was slowly looking at many things in an open manner. Coupled with the fact that Lu Xue was also a woman, there were a little more words in common with her. Under Lu Xue’s deliberate and enthusiastic befriending, An Yi, who originally had little experience and experience, had gradually integrated into the circle at this time.
Ning Cheng did not bother to interrupt as he surveyed this huge airship spellcraft. When he was on Earth, he had never flown in a plane, yet he knew how big it was. Now, in his opinion, even the largest aeroplanes were not as big as a few tenths of this huge airship artefact, it was a real giant.
For such a huge airship to fly, he didn’t know if it relied purely on spirit stones, or if it had something else. He did not believe that an airship without a power source would fly for no reason.
It was only when he got on the ship that An Yi had the chance to get out and call Ning Cheng.
“Who is he?” Yong Gu Yun had been concerned about An Yi after she knew that her Spiritual Root was even better than hers and was also a pure Spiritual Root, and now An Yi had purposely gone to call a Qi gathering fourth level cultivator, causing her to ask out in confusion.
Lu Xue looked at An Yi’s back and said with a sigh, “That’s An Yi’s cousin Ning Cheng, An Yi and him seem to have a very unusual relationship.”
Yong Gu Yun immediately asked, “What is Ning Cheng’s spiritual root?”
Lu Xue shook her head, “I heard that it was a very poor multilineage miscellaneous branch spirit root, far from An Yi.”
“Impossible, right, in this part of the Mango Sea, a miscellaneous branch spirit root can still cultivate to his level? Looking at his True Qi fluctuations, he should be at the fourth level of Qi gathering too, right?” Yong Gu Yun asked in surprise.
“It’s because he coincidentally obtained five Qi gathering pills.” Le Bo Hong smiled as he walked over, “But Ning Cheng is still a good person, very principled, unfortunately he will most likely stop at the Qi Gathering realm in his lifetime, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to reach the seventh Qi Gathering layer.”
“If that’s the case, he really shouldn’t go to Ming Xin Academy. Once he reaches Ming Xin Academy, An Yi will definitely be accepted as a disciple by Elder Zhuyuan, and Ning Cheng will find it difficult to see her again in the future.” Yong Gu Yun looked at Ning Cheng who was smiling and said.
Ning Cheng did not know what others thought of him, but he came from Earth and had seen a lot of all kinds of human feelings and warmth. He could even predict that he would not be treated well when he arrived at Ming Xin Academy. At this moment, when An Yi came over and asked him to get on board, he swept the rest of the Ming Xin Academy students who were staring at him and said to An Yi, “An Yi, with your spiritual roots, you will definitely be guided by a famous master after you arrive at Ming Xin Academy and will become a core disciple of Ming Xin Academy. We will have few chances to meet in the future, so I will share some spirit stones with you when I find an opportunity.”
An Yi was shocked in her heart and quickly said, “Big brother, I want to join you, my master has also said that I should join you.”
Ning Cheng smiled bitterly and said, “An Yi, your master said that at that time because you didn’t have any friends at that time, and you didn’t have anyone to take with you, now you have friends, and you will definitely be trained by Ming Xin Academy in a key way. Even if your master was still alive, he wouldn’t want you to be with me anymore.”
“No, I want to be with you.” Anyi said stubbornly. She didn’t have so many reasons to refute Ning Cheng, she just simply felt that she felt comfortable only when she was with Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng said with a dark sigh, “We have to leave Mango City, wait until you get to Ming Xin Academy you have to work hard to cultivate, I believe that Ming Xin Academy has many cultivation resources for you. Besides, your master said that you come from an unusual background, if you can’t raise your cultivation level, there is no way to know where you come from. What’s more, if you become a core disciple of the academy and are still with me, maybe the Bright Heart Academy will think I’m holding you back.”
An Yi fell silent, she was no longer the simple little nun who had just come out back then. She understood the meaning of Ning Cheng’s words, Ning Cheng’s poor spiritual roots, if she still wanted to be with Ning Cheng, maybe the academy would kill Ning Cheng for holding her back. Over this period of time, she had seen too many bloody things.
“I understand, I will remember big brother’s words.” An Yi had secretly made up her mind that she would definitely work hard on her cultivation and wait until her cultivation level was high, then she would help Ning Cheng to find more spirit stones.
Some sadness rose in Ning Cheng’s heart, now he could still see An Yi, after he arrived at the Bright Heart Academy, it might be difficult to meet.
“I will definitely have cultivation resources when I arrive at the academy, so you don’t need to give me those things. The resources you need are definitely more.” An Yi had seen Ning Cheng cultivate, and she knew that the spirit stones that Ning Cheng needed to be cultivating were too terrifying. Although Ning Cheng had obtained a few hundred spirit stones, that would simply not be enough for him to waste.
“Anyi, get on board.” Lu Xue called out from afar.
Ning Cheng said as soon as he pulled An Yi’s hand, “Let’s go, get on the boat.”
Miao Lihu, who was standing at a distance, fiercely stared at Ning Cheng and An Yi’s back, vowing in his heart that even if he didn’t want the Wolf King’s Mansion, he would follow secretly to the Ming Yi True Kingdom and then find an opportunity to finish off Ning Cheng.
……
Ning Cheng did not guess wrong, as soon as he and An Yi boarded the ship, An Yi was placed in a better room. Ning Cheng found out after asking the person who led the way that the ship was owned by Ming Xin Academy and Ming Yi True Kingdom in partnership.
Ning Cheng was also not alone in occupying a room, but was in a room with the remaining five people he did not even know. These five people all shared the same characteristics of being very young, with the oldest looking no more than about twenty.
What relieved Ning Cheng was that his cultivation level was not the worst in this room after all. There were five people in this room, and two others were only at the second level of Qi gathering.
“May I ask if you are also students of Ming Xin Academy?” Ning Cheng asked with a fist as soon as he entered. What was strange in his heart was that even for the Ming Xin Academy, it was not simple for a Qi gathering second level cultivator to earn two lower grade spirit stones as a boat fare, right?
A youngster who was just like Ning Cheng, also at the fourth level of Qi gathering, replied, “Of course not, weren’t you chosen by the Ming Xin Academy to attend the Ming Xin Academy entry selection? Only after pa*sing the selection process of the Bright Heart Academy are you considered a student of the Bright Heart Academy.”
Ning Cheng suddenly understood, he had heard before that this ship was owned by the partnership between the Ming Xin Academy and the Ming Yi True Kingdom. It seemed that this ship was circling around the whole Ping Chau, going around to select youngsters with good qualifications to go to the Ming Xin Academy for testing, and if they pa*sed the test, they were students of the Ming Xin Academy. Le Bo Hong said that he only needed two spirit stones to board the boat, and that he might have opened the back door for him and An Yi.
Ning Cheng quickly became familiar with a few people, and these few people were indeed the same as Ning Cheng had guessed, they were all selected by the Ming Xin Academy from all over the world and were preparing to go to the Ming Xin Academy to take the selection test. The few people in his room were considered to be at the bottom of the list in terms of qualifications, but despite being at the bottom, the worst one was still better than Ning Cheng’s qualifications, at least they all had First Lineage Primary Spiritual Root.
“What if they fail the test?” It suddenly occurred to Ning Cheng that if they failed the entrance test, then the Ming Xin Academy would not admit them, and there would definitely not be an airship to send them back again.
A skinny teenager of the third Qi gathering layer clenched his fist and said, “I must pa*s.”
The fourth Qi gathering layer teenager who had first spoken to Ning Cheng said disdainfully, “It’s not up to you to say whether you can pa*s or not. For those of us who can pa*s is a step to heaven, if we cannot pa*s, we can only stay in the Ming Yi True Kingdom to survive. A person who wants to return home again from the Ming Yi True Country is looking for death.”
After saying that, he sighed and said, “If one had the kind of spiritual roots that Yu Hongfeng has, then there would be no need to worry.”
“Who is Yu Hongfeng?” Ning Cheng asked.
“He is a student selected by Yu An Guo, and I heard that he is the only pure gold spirit root among the students selected this time. Even the elders on board are very polite to him, he has a bright future ……,” the teenager at the fourth Qi gathering level replied with some envy.
Ning Cheng’s heart twitched, if pure spirit roots were so valued, wouldn’t that mean that An Yi was equally valued?
At that moment, the room creaked open and a teenager dressed in blue clothes came in carrying a wooden tray with several boxes that resembled boxed meals on it.
“Dinner is served.” This blue-suited teenager said without expression.
Only then did Ning Cheng realise that there was someone else bringing food to his door, it looked like this wasn’t a bad treatment. The rest of the teenagers inside the room had obviously been used to it for a long time and hurriedly went to fetch their boxed meals. After Ning Cheng took his box of rice, he politely asked the teenager who had delivered the rice, “May I ask my friend, what location does that pure spirit root disciple usually live in?”
The rice delivery boy gave Ning Cheng a surprised look and then said, “They live in the core area, don’t think about going over to see them, or you will soon be kicked off the ship.”
Hearing the two words for them, the fourth level Qi gathering teenager asked with some confusion, “Isn’t the pure spirit root Yu Hongfeng alone?”
“Of course not, I heard that another student with pure wood spirit roots was found in the Mango Sea this time.” The rice delivery boy said at once.
Ning Cheng knew that the other party should be talking about An Yi, so that meant An Yi would definitely be taken care of. He was still a little uneasy in his heart and asked again, “If I wanted to see that pure spirit root student, would it be troublesome?”
“It’s no trouble either, there will be a welcome party for the two Pure Spiritual Root students on board tomorrow night. If you have the ability to get tickets, won’t you be able to see them.” With these words, this rice delivery boy obviously had some intention of laughing at Ning Cheng’s lack of self-esteem, and after he finished speaking, he did not continue to nag with Ning Cheng and turned around to leave the room.
