Sun Mo waved his hand, not minding it. "Xuanyuan Po, you'll be on night duty. The rest of you, go and rest early!"
After saying that, Sun Mo got up and returned to his tent.
It was only after Sun Mo had left for a long time did Tan Lu raise his head. He still had an awkward look on his face. If Sun Mo had reprimanded him, he might have felt better. However, the more magnanimous Sun Mo was, the more he felt that he was narrow-minded and felt even worse.
"Is there a mistake?"
Tantai Yutang looked at Tan Lu, wanting to ask, 'Are you a fool? Sun Mo said that you're not suitable to cultivate your family-inherited spear art. Are you going to give up on it so easily? '
"There's no mistake. Teacher Sun is really amazing!"
Tan Lu looked toward Tantai Yutang, his tone filled with emotions. "I'm really envious of you guys to be able to become Teacher's personal students!"
Tan Lu sighed and turned to leave. Sun Mo didn't recruit him. This meant that his talent and aptitude weren't able to move Sun Mo.
"..."
Tantai Yutang was speechless. Was this something worth being envious of? He admitted that Sun Mo's God Hands were very amazing, but other than that, there shouldn't be any other redeeming qualities, right?
"Teacher is truly amazing!"
Xuanyuan Po nodded. He recalled Sun Mo's teachings on cultivation arts and how to conduct oneself.
"Is there a need to doubt this? It's a given! "
Lu Zhiruo nodded with certainty. This Tan Lu's judgment wasn't bad. Should she go and beg Sun Mo to take him in as a disciple?
Ying Baiwu didn't say anything but contributed favorable impression points. Being able to acknowledge Sun Mo as her master was truly the greatest fortune in her life.
"Alright, everyone, go and sleep!"
Li Ziqi clapped her hands, urging everyone to rest. Although she wasn't old, she did things in an orderly manner. She had the air of an eldest martial sister.
...
The next morning, Sun Mo brought the students to meet up with the group. They then set off and continued to venture into the depths of the Spiritwind Canyon.
After resting for a night, Tan Lu's feet didn't hurt as much anymore. However, Jin Mujie was still worried and planned on leaving him in the hot spring area.
It was because the upcoming journey would start to become dangerous and they would need to fight.
"Teacher, I wish to continue!"
Tan Lu pleaded and even jumped a few times. "I've really recovered. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask Teacher Sun.
Very soon, Sun Mo was called over. After knowing the reason, he expressed that Tan Lu was fine.
"Teacher Sun, the team will be facing a battle soon. The intensity might not be high, but everyone will definitely have to participate in it. If Tan Lu's injury worsens and affects his future, you'll have to take responsibility."
Jin Mujie's tone was a little heavier. She was only reminding Sun Mo not to make promises recklessly. Otherwise, once something happened to Tan Lu, Zhang Qianlin would definitely not let it go and turn this misjudgment into a stain in Sun Mo's life.
Sun Mo looked toward Tan Lu.
"Teacher!"
Tan Lu's eyes were filled with pleading. If he were to stop here, then he definitely wouldn't have a spot to participate in the league tournament.
"I guarantee it. Let him continue!"
Sun Mo didn't wish for a student to lose hope.
"Alright, but I'll have Zhou shi check it once more!"
Jin Mujie was a serious and responsible teacher. She wouldn't just listen to Sun Mo's words.
Zhou Shanyi was called over. He did the examination very seriously. Then, it took more than ten minutes.
This caused Tan Lu's heart to be in suspense again.
"Did something go wrong?"
Yi Jiamin was very happy, wanting nothing more than for Sun Mo to be unlucky.
"Teacher Zhou?"
Jin Mujie frowned.
"Oh, no problem! No problem! "
Zhou Shanyi put down Tan Lu's leg. However, just as he stood up and took a few steps, he couldn't help but squat down again. "Don't move. I'll check it again!"
"..."
Tan Lu was on the verge of crying. (Since there's no problem, why are you still checking it? Is it fun to scare me?)
"It's too amazing. His bones have all recovered? And the swelling has gone down? It's simply too amazing. "
Zhou Shanyi's gaze was filled with astonishment. "After one night, his ankle isn't much different from a normal one. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes yesterday, I wouldn't dare to believe that he had suffered a comminuted fracture from a kick yesterday."
Hearing this, Tan Lu heaved a sigh of relief.
Yi Jiamin's lips twitched, feeling displeased.
"I must kill this guy."
Seeing the gazes of admiration the surrounding students were using to look at Sun Mo, Zhang Qianlin felt even more jealous.
Ding!
Congratulations, you've obtained a total of + 1,206 favorable impression points.
The group set off. The following days weren't going to be easy. As they ventured deeper into the canyon, not only did the number of spirit-winds increase, but they were also stronger.
Of course, the main problem was still the spirit qi tides that fluctuated in size. Their changes caused the spirit pressure to keep on strengthening or weakening, directly affecting the cultivators and making them feel unbearably uncomfortable.
A small number of students started to show symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. Some of the more serious ones even had blood seeping out from their skin.
"If you can't hold on any longer, just tell me. Don't hide it!"
Jin Mujie would repeat this every once in a while.
These reactions were considered spirit pressure allergies. In serious cases, they might even die.
"Are you guys alright?"
Every night, Sun Mo would give the students a massage and check on them. However, he was still worried.
"We're fine!"
Lu Zhiruo shook her head.
"We can still endure it!"
Tantai Yutang chuckled.
"Teacher, can we continue with the lesson?"
During these few days, Li Ziqi had been following Sun Mo and listening to his lessons. He mainly talked about the study of spirit runes and the art of spiritual beast control.
Among these students, the little sunny egg was second to none in terms of her eagerness to learn.
On the fifth day, the group came to a huge waterfall. At this moment, half of the people in the group showed signs of spirit pressure allergies.
Rumble! Rumble!
The waterfall was like the Milky Way, flowing down from the clouds and crashing into the deep pool, emitting a loud rumbling sound.
"This is a thousand feet waterfall, one of the most beautiful sceneries in the Spiritwind Canyon. Coming here also means that you guys have passed the test and are able to adapt to the ever-changing spirit pressure on the first level of the Darkness Continent. You guys can stay here for a long time."
After Jin Mujie finished speaking, the group let out deafening cheers.
The students finally felt at ease. If they couldn't even conquer the first level of the Darkness Continent, then no matter how hard they cultivated, there would be no future for them.
"Silence!"
Jin Mujie clapped her hands. "We will rest here for a day. Everyone can move around freely, but no one is allowed to go more than a mile away from the waterfall!"
"Roger, group leader!"
After the students agreed, they dispersed.
"Teacher Sun, we'll have to trouble you."
Jin Mujie looked at Sun Mo.
"Mn!"
Those students with spirit pressure allergies were gathered together. The job of treating them should have been done by Zhou Shanyi, but the effect of Sun Mo's Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands was better. Hence, he replaced Zhou Shanyi instead.
...
"Let's go and catch a few river fish from the pool and roast them for Teacher to nourish his body. I heard that mandarin fish from the thousand feet waterfall are very delicious!"
Li Ziqi called out.
Lu Zhiruo and Ying Baiwu immediately responded. Jiang Leng had wanted to follow, but when he saw that Tantai Yutang and Xuanyuan Po didn't move, he stopped as well.
"Are you guys not going?"
The papaya girl asked.
"Don't bother about them!"
Li Ziqi stopped them. The sickly invalid clearly wasn't going. If the papaya girl asked this, it would only make everyone feel awkward.
The three girls headed to the waterfall.
"So high!"
The papaya girl shaded her eyes with her hands and stared at the sky.
Because the waterfall was too high, the stream water seemed to be pouring down from the sky, slamming heavily onto the water surface and rocks, causing countless water droplets to form.
A layer of mist permeated the surroundings of the waterfall. It was like a dream.
"Oi, which school are you guys from?"
In the stream, a few guys were playing in the water. When they saw Li Ziqi, they weren't shy and directly called out.
"Let's go downstream!"
Li Ziqi didn't reply. Cooking a sumptuous meal for her teacher was the most important thing.
After finding a shallow water area, the three girls took off their shoes and socks, rolled up their trousers, and entered the water.
Ying Baiwu was fully focused and stared at the water surface. When she saw a mandarin fish swimming past, she immediately swung her sword.
Swish!
A white bird made of spirit qi shot out and dove into the water surface, creating a huge splash. After that, the color of blood surged up.
The mandarin fish that was dismembered bobbed up and down as it floated downstream.
"Do your best to ensure that the appearance of the mandarin fish is intact."
Li Ziqi instructed. The food they prepared for her teacher had to be exquisite and perfect. Don't eat those that were too ugly.
"Alright!"
Ying Baiwu went ashore and chopped a few tree branches to make a simple harpoon. She then started to stab the fish.
Although mandarin fish lived in the Darkness Continent and their flesh was rich in spirit qi, they weren't mysterious species of darkness. They were just ordinary fish that were bigger in size, more ferocious, and had fast reactions. But before cultivators, they were completely insufficient.
Let alone Ying Baiwu who had quick reflexes, even Lu Zhiruo had some success. As long as something was targeted by her, it wouldn't be able to escape.
Another one entered her field of vision. The papaya girl bit her little tongue and was preparing to harvest it when she suddenly heard a splash at the side. After that, a huge splash of water splashed over, drenching her school uniform quite a bit.
"Ah wu!"
Li Ziqi struggled in the water.
"Eldest martial sister!"
Lu Zhiruo jumped in fright and hurriedly came over to pull her up.
The depth of the stream was below her buttocks. It wasn't deep, but the little sunny egg's motor nerves were too weak. Her balance wasn't good either.
She stepped on a smooth rock and fell down, but she couldn't get up.
Plop!
Li Ziqi, who was struggling wildly, dragged the papaya girl down as well, causing her to fall into the water.
"..."
Ying Baiwu was speechless. She hurriedly came over and pulled Li Ziqi up.
"Cough cough! Cough cough! "
Li Ziqi sat on the shore and coughed. Her oval-shaped face was pale and flushed.
The paleness was from fear, and the redness was from embarrassment. If it wasn't for Ying Baiwu, she might have drowned in this stream that wasn't even waist deep.
"Ziqi, it's better for you to wait on the shore!"
Ying Baiwu went into the water.
"No, I must catch a fish today!"
Li Ziqi wanted to catch a fish personally and roast it until it was fragrant and delicious for her teacher to eat.
"Eldest martial sister..."
Lu Zhiruo had wanted to persuade Li Ziqi to give up, but she suddenly heard a strange mournful cry. It shocked her so much that her hair stood on end.
"What the hell?"
Li Ziqi was shocked. She stood up and glanced downstream.
Over 50 meters away, she could see three guys squatting there. It was unknown what they were doing.
"This sound is so mournful. Let's go and take a look?"
Lu Zhiruo looked at Li Ziqi and spoke with a pleading voice.
"Let's go!"
Li Ziqi also felt a little curious.
"Eh? We're not catching fish anymore? "
Ying Baiwu was speechless when she saw the mandarin fish struggling on the harpoon.
