In front of the Dragonspirit Manor, there were no waves.
"From your words, since you guys aren't spirit rune grandmasters and can't solve this introductory question, why did you guys come?"
Qin Yaoguang tossed a pear blossom candy into her mouth and surveyed the three of them. "Is it very fun to be rejected?"
"Yaoguang, be careful with your words!"
Li Ziqi reminded, worried that she would bring trouble to Sun Mo.
Rules were set by humans. When some major characters possessed power that was above the rules, they naturally wouldn't need to abide by the rules.
This old man who seemed to be on the verge of death either returned without accomplishing anything or was a major character on the same level as Bai Wenzhang.
Only then would Bai Wenzhang make an exception for him and allow him to enter.
"That's right, don't talk to them anymore."
The papaya girl shrank her neck. "Their auras are so terrifying. They must have done many bad things before!"
"Little girl, haven't I done many bad things before?"
The middle-aged woman looked at Lu Zhiruo and bared her yellow teeth. "I've been doing bad things my entire life!"
"Ah!"
Lu Zhiruo jumped in fright and hid behind Sun Mo again. Her fingers that were grabbing onto his clothes tightened.
"Senior brother, you can't be thinking of fighting again, right?"
Tantai Yutang didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Xuanyuan Po gripping his silver spear tightly and staring at the old man.
"Don't worry, I know how to judge the situation!"
The combat addict sighed.
He probably wouldn't encounter an expert of this level more than a few times in his life, right?
(When I become stronger in the future, I must challenge him!)
Only then would he not let down his life!
"Wow, the combat addict actually knows how to use idioms?"
Qin Yaoguang was surprised.
"What do you mean? Am I very stupid? "
Xuanyuan Po frowned.
"What else?"
Qin Yaoguang counter-asked, "Other than fighting, what's the difference between you and a retard?"
The Calabash Brothers nodded.
If it wasn't related to cultivation, Xuanyuan Po would definitely not listen to it. Even his three meals a day were to accumulate energy for his cultivation.
Ever since he received Sun Mo's custom-made recipe, he strictly followed it. Let alone eating a mouthful of meat, he didn't even drink a mouthful of water.
If it wasn't for the fact that Sun Mo said that there could be some mistakes, Xuanyuan Po would even be prepared to measure the food for each meal.
One must know that among his martial siblings, Jiang Leng was an extremely disciplined youth due to his background. But even he would occasionally go out to eat a good meal to reward himself.
And Xuanyuan Po was the only disciple who had completed Sun Mo's custom-made plan.
Also, Xuanyuan Po's training volume was five times that of Jiang Leng, who was in second place.
As for clothes, he did not like to dress up.
All of Xuanyuan Po's clothes were school uniforms, and he didn't have any casual clothes. Moreover, he paid a cleaner to wash his clothes.
As for sleeping, it was as accurate as a robot, never missing a minute.
Sleep in?
There was no such thing.
It was also because of Xuanyuan Po's extremely disciplined work and rest schedule that his five roommates were motivated and followed suit. Their grades this semester improved by a lot.
"You want to fight with me?"
Xuanyuan Po didn't want to argue. If he could fight, he definitely wouldn't waste his breath.
Moreover, he had long wanted to spar with this Junior Sister.
She directly told him that this Qin Yaoguang wasn't simple. However, he had challenged her a few times, but she had always avoided him.
"When you can bring me snacks that I've never eaten before, I'll fight with you!"
Qin Yaoguang grinned.
(Fight?
I won't do anything that doesn't benefit me.)
The middle-aged man wanted to tease her a little, but he suddenly looked at his master with a terrified expression.
It had been ten years, and his master had maintained this posture with his head lowered. But now, he actually lifted his head and looked at the silver-spear-wielding youth.
"Brat, do you want to be my disciple?"
The old man's originally dim eyes gleamed with a bright light at this moment as if he wanted to see through Xuanyuan Po.
Swoosh!
Xuanyuan Po's expression changed drastically. He directly pulled out his spear and took a defensive stance because he sensed an extremely great danger. It was like he was being targeted by an ancient beast that was hunting for food.
Helian Beifang silently grabbed the hilt of his blade.
As for Jiang Leng, he took half a step forward and stood in front of his martial sisters.
Their actions caused this old man who had one foot in the grave to glance at them.
"Tsk, I didn't expect to see so many good seeds here today!"
The old man was surprised and looked at Sun Mo. "What's your name?"
"Sun Mo!"
Sun Mo activated Divine Sight. Just when he looked at the middle-aged man, the other party stared at him.
"They are all your students?"
After the old man heard this name, his brows twitched. "Sun Mo of Jinling?"
Seeing Sun Mo nodding, the middle-aged woman revealed an expression. (No wonder he is so arrogant. It's said that his attainment in the study of spirit runes has already reached the ancestor-level.)
"Hey, can you tell me the answer?"
The middle-aged man's tone was very friendly.
"Hehe!"
Sun Mo clasped his hands toward the old man and walked toward the entrance of the manor.
"Oi, don't blame me for not reminding you. If you enter recklessly without solving the riddle, you'll be hacked to death."
The middle-aged man reminded.
"It can't be that he has already solved it, right?"
The middle-aged woman was astonished.
"Isn't your brain the one with maggots? He has been standing here for less than five minutes, and you're telling me that he has solved the riddle? "
The middle-aged man mocked, "Even ancestor-level experts don't have this talent!"
"Silence!"
The old man berated. After that, he looked at Sun Mo's group and entered the manor, disappearing at the end of the tree-lined path.
"What the hell? Why didn't anyone stop him? Did they change the rules? "
The middle-aged man called out.
"Master, what should we do? Should we kill our way in? "
The middle-aged woman bowed and asked.
"This time around, I came here because I have a request for Bai Wenzhang. It's better not to be too rash."
The old man turned his head and looked at the spirit rune fragments. "Go and capture a grandmaster. Let him solve the riddle here."
"Roger!"
The middle-aged man knelt on one knee. After receiving the order, he leaped a few times and dashed tens of feet away.
...
In the manor, it was quiet and peaceful.
Some people wearing white robes started to appear. However, they weren't surprised at all when they saw Sun Mo and the others. All of them were focused on doing their own things.
"Teacher!"
Seeing that Sun Mo had the mentality of sightseeing, Jiang Leng braced himself and persuaded, "This really isn't a place where you can be impudent."
In Jiang Leng's bones, he was filled with fear toward this manor because he had seen too many deaths here.
And Dean Bai was the only ruler here. He decided the rules here.
Those who disobeyed would die!
"Don't panic. I only came in after I solved the puzzle."
Sun Mo consoled.
"Ah?"
Xianyu Wei's eyes were wide open. It had already been solved?
But he didn't see what Teacher had done.
Did I miss it?
The little sunny egg frowned. She had just finished looking at the fragments and hadn't had the time to decipher them yet.
"When those fragments are pieced together, although they form a few spirit runes, when their runes are connected, they form four words: Do not touch."
Sun Mo explained, "I'm guessing that there might be poison on those magnets."
"This is too much, isn't it?"
Everyone was speechless.
"The visitor wanted to solve the riddle, so he must've pieced a spirit rune together. However, he didn't expect that the moment he touched those spirit runes, he would be poisoned."
Li Ziqi analyzed. "This means that there's no way to test it out. We can only calculate it in our minds."
The Calabash Brothers furrowed their brows. Such a difficult question, it was clear that Bai Wenzhang was planning to close the door and reject all guests. In that case, why did Bai Wenzhang still call his teacher over?
Wait a minute, could it be that he closed the door just to receive Teacher?
That teacher's prestige would be too great!
Pak, pak, pak!
Applause rang out, and a man in his thirties walked out.
"Teacher Sun's talent is truly shocking."
The man smiled and introduced himself. "I'm Teacher Bai's disciple, Xiao Feng."
Because Teacher Bai treated Sun Mo as someone of the same generation, even though Xiao Feng was older than Sun Mo, he still had to address him as teacher.
"Hello!"
Sun Mo replied with a smile.
This man had short hair and some spirit rune lines could be seen on his neck. His eyes were narrower and when he looked at people, he was used to narrowing them.
Jiang Leng's lips moved, wanting to greet him. However, Xiao Feng ignored him.
"This way please!"
Xiao Feng said, "My teacher is currently doing an experiment and isn't able to receive Teacher Sun. However, my teacher has already instructed that you guys don't need to be so reserved. Just treat this place as your own home.
"However, I suggest that you guys don't run around randomly. It's not that we're worried about secrets being leaked, but we're afraid that some places might frighten you guys."
Xiao Feng kindly reminded.
He first arranged rooms for everyone. After that, he brought everyone to the library, canteen, training ground, and the laboratory building.
"The ancient spirit rune dojo is right in front. I dare to say that over 70% of the undeciphered ancient spirit runes in the entire Nine Provinces are here. Teacher Sun, why don't you go and try to decipher them?"
Xiao Feng smiled. "If you can decipher ten ancient spirit runes, you'll be qualified to read the three great puzzles of our Dragonspirit Manor."
Qin Yaoguang used her finger to secretly poke Jiang Leng. "Are you bragging? The Nine Greats have quite a number of ancient spirit runes in their collections. "
"I'm not bragging, there are just that many."
Jiang Leng nodded with certainty.
"What are the three great puzzles?"
Lu Zhiruo was very interested in this.
"It's a world difficult question regarding the study of spirit runes. Dean... Dean Bai hasn't been able to solve it until now."
Jiang Leng explained.
"Wow!"
Lu Zhiruo was filled with interest and wanted to take a look.
Even the top three spirit rune great ancestors in the Nine Provinces couldn't solve it. How difficult would it be?
"Teacher, you can do it. Once you solve them, you'll be the number one spirit rune master in the Nine Provinces."
Qin Yaoguang waved her little fist.
Xiao Feng had a smile on his face, but his heart was filled with contempt and disdain.
(What my teacher can't do in a hundred years, you guys can forget about doing it in your entire lifetime!)
Solve it?
You guys are really daydreaming!)
Xiao Feng completed the mission of leading the way and left.
"Teacher, let's quickly go to the ancient spirit rune dojo to solve the spirit runes!"
Lu Zhiruo pulled Sun Mo's arm and urged him.
"Jiang Leng, help me find a few powerful opponents!"
Xuanyuan Po licked his lips. "My silver spear is already thirsting for blood."
"Senior brother, you better not underestimate your enemies. There are many people stronger than me here."
Jiang Leng persuaded.
...
Xiao Feng didn't leave but hid in the darkness, observing these people. When he saw Sun Mo going to the ancient spirit rune dojo, he heaved a sigh of relief.
There were too many secrets in the manor. It'd be bad if they saw them.
"Sigh, why did Teacher give Sun Mo the authority to roam freely?"
Xiao Feng didn't understand and even felt a little jealous.
He had never seen his teacher treating someone so politely before.
