“Alright, I’ll take your word for it.”

Qi Rui cheerfully gulped down more than half a jug of wine.

“By the way, Qi Brother, is there a platform for betting on the Sect’s Grand Competition within the sect?”

Qi Rui, halfway through his drink, choked on Chen Mobai’s question. Both he and Xi Jinghuo widened their eyes, looking at the latter.

“What are you planning?”

“Just asking.”

From their reaction, it was clear there wasn’t such a place. Chen Mobai was a little disappointed.

After this round of drinks, the three marveled at Small Yang Ridge. Even for a true disciple, the sect only assigned Rank-2 high-grade Spiritual Vein Cave Dwellings.

The fact that Chen Mobai was assigned such a spiritual land just by joining the Spirit Plant Division showed how much emphasis was put on him.

The Sect’s Grand Competition was coming soon.

Despite being at the 9th level of Qi cultivation, Qi Rui had newly advanced. His sword techniques and talismans were not as good as the other seasoned cultivators at the peak of Qi Cultivation. Though he fought hard and made it into the top fifty, he still fell before reaching the True Disciples.

As for Xi Jinghuo, he didn’t even make it into the top three hundred.

Having carefully observed the Sect’s Grand Competition, Chen Mobai was in awe of the duel techniques of the Tianhe Realm cultivators. If he participated, even among those in the same realm, he would probably rank at the bottom. ’ Once the new year had passed, it was time for the Daoist Academy to start school.

There was one thing left to do before the term: the resit exam.

Chen Mobai relaxed as soon as he saw the exam questions.

The question setter seemed to have shown mercy, simply asking them to draw a Rank-1 high-grade “Thunder-Summoning Talisman”.

This was a talisman that had been emphasized in the first-grade textbook.

Chen Mobai picked up his Green Bamboo Pen, spread out the Rank-i talisman paper provided in the examination hall, and closed his eyes to recall the details. After about three minutes, he drew the talisman in one go with his pen confidently immersed in ink.

After drawing, he injected spiritual power into the talisman to confirm that it could be activated.

To avoid any mishaps, he took another two pieces of Rank-1 talisman paper and drew two more “Thunder-Summoning Talismans,” all of which were successful.

Teacher, can I hand in my paper now?”

The invigilator, who had just sat down, checked his watch—it had only been ten minutes.

In universities, especially the top four Daoist academies, handing in papers early was normal.

After all, some geniuses are just too extraordinary to waste their precious time. The two invigilators came over to Chen Mobai, checked the three “Thunder-Summoning Talismans” he had drawn, and found that their quality was just as good as the ones they could draw.

They checked the student’s information in the top left corner.

So, he was that Chen Mobai!

These two teachers also taught talisman-related elective courses. They naturally heard of this name and initially thought it was just a rumor. But now it seemed that he really was a genius.

“Alright, there’s no problem. You’ve passed the resit exam.”

Since the number of people was small, the talisman course resit exam was graded on the spot. After the two invigilators agreed unanimously, Chen Mobai completed the resit exam with full marks.

His academic points increased by three points.

However, these three points could only be used to exchange for spiritual objects at the end of this semester.

The other students in the exam room were surprised at Chen Mobai. Of the five students from their grade who failed, and those from higher grades who had been failing until now, all of them felt the gap in talent when they saw the handsome young man leaving casually.

They all studied during the holiday break, so why did he become so impressive?

Could this be the ’’Sleeper” after awakening?

After seeing the resit exam results, Si Guanyu and Zhuang Jialan felt a bit of pressure.

Perhaps it’s just that the predicted test question was spot on.”

Seeing the slightly nervous Zhuang Jialan, Siguanyu couldn’t help trying to comfort her.

Then, as the results of the first monthly test for this term’s Rune class came out, he too started to feel uneasy.

The top scorer in the Gathering Dust rune test is Chen Mobai.”

The teacher of their Rune class was Xu Xiu. He handed the perfect score Gathering Dust rune to Chen Mobai with a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.

Very good. Last year I assessed your level accurately. Choosing that specific question to fail you was indeed the correct move. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have studied so hard this term.”

Chen Mobai, who was in high spirits after scoring first, was taken aback by Xu Xiu’s words, staring at his teacher in disbelief.

How could a teacher behave like this!

However, Xu Xiu, believing in his high teaching skills, gave a wave of his hand, signaling Chen Mobai to leave.

“Second place, Siguanyu.”

“Third place, Zhuang Jialan.”

The class president and the student committee member still had close scores, but they were no longer alternating first and second places and even throughout the entire term, they never achieved the top score again.

Under the provocative teaching methods of Xu Xiu, Chen Mobai, under the watchful eyes of all his classmates, took the first place in all six-month exams in the first half of the year.

In fact, he could have continued to top the list until the final exam, leading with twelve straight wins.

But something happened at home, forcing him to take leave and return home.

Upon reaching sixty years old, Chen Xinglan had no choice but to mobilize his spiritual power and start Foundation Establishment.

The Alchemy department of the Divine Wood Sect hadn’t yet come out to refine Foundation Building Pills, Chen Mobai even made a quick trip back to the Water Mansion and brought back the Array Plate inlaid with a high-grade Spirit Stone, intending to exchange it once a Foundation Building Pill became available, but things didn’t go as planned.

In the end, he still couldn’t wait.

After reaching the eighth level of Qi Cultivation, Chen Mobai used the

Foundation Establishment treasure to help his father predict the success rate of the Foundation Establishment, which was just 14.5%.

The reality proved that this prediction was accurate.

Chen Xinglan failed in his Foundation Establishment.

However, the good news was that Chen Xinglan did not risk everything to try.

After the Change Tendons and Wash Marrow process, he felt that his ability to Condense Qi into Liquid was already difficult. He thought of his family and decisively chose to give up the transformation.

At the cost of harming himself, he stopped the Foundation Establishment process.

When the door of the Cave Dwelling opened from inside, Chen Mobai saw his father looking weak but still alive and well, without serious damage to his Elemental Energy.

“Alright, stop crying. There are many ups and downs in life, but having Mobai as my son is enough to make me satisfied.”

After Chen Xinglan came out, seeing Tang Panchui crying uncontrollably, he couldn’t help but console her gently.

“Older brother, I’m glad you’re okay.”

Aside from Chen Mobai’s family, second Aunt Chen Yulan and Chen Baolan, his younger uncle, also came.

After gathering for two days at their home in Red Sandstone City, Chen Xinglan and Tang Panchui went to Green Mountain Village.

He hadn’t visited his in-laws in two years because of the Foundation Establishment process.

’’Son, once I’m healed in Green Mountain Village, I’ll take your mom on a trip around various Immortal Sects. You focus on studying hard at Dance Tool Dao Academy and don’t worry about us.”

Seeing his father being so open-minded, all Chen Mobai could do was nod.

But seeing his father’s stooping figure as he left, he resolved in his heart that he had to succeed in establishing his Foundation.

When he returned to the Daoist Academy, Chen Mobai began to study even more diligently.

For the remaining Rune class monthly exams and the final exam, he ended the second grade with all top scores..
