As for Mu Shishuang, she stood behind Lin Ran like a personal maid, constantly adding tea and water for Lin Ran, but her eyes kept darting around Lin Ran, as if she was thinking about something.
As night deepened, Lin Ran finally finished studying the stack of information and gained a general understanding of the current danger triangle. What surprised him most was the resurgence of the Medicine King Sect, but thinking about it, it made sense. The last explosion had only destroyed the Medicine King Sect's resources.
But the alchemists from the Medicine King Sect are still there. If they refine more pills, they can quickly rebuild the Medicine King Sect.
Moreover, the Medicine King Sect has been offering high rewards for members of the Holy Sky Academy. Anyone who kills a member of the Holy Sky Academy can obtain pills from them.
Therefore, many people in the dangerous triangle area went to take action against the people of Holy Sky Academy, but Holy Sky Academy was not afraid and chose to confront them head-on.
Currently, the two sides are at loggerheads, but they have remained at a standstill and have not escalated into a higher level of conflict.
As for other regions, there are currently many forces in the Danger Triangle that are showing signs of heading to Qianzhou to try and access that secret realm, but only the Azure Dragon Academy has a space tunnel that can lead to Qianzhou.
Therefore, the only way for those forces in the dangerous triangle to join the excitement of the secret realm in the former state is by taking the spaceship route.
However, Lin Ran only needed to learn about these things to facilitate his operations in the Danger Triangle. He was more concerned about the small and medium-sized forces in the Danger Triangle, which were densely packed, but very few were suitable for his ten-person team to train with.
Lin Ran was truly exhausted from training those kids. He rubbed his temples, stood up and stretched. Seeing Mu Shishuang standing there almost asleep, he shook her shoulder and called out, "Hey, Shishuang, if you're sleepy, go to sleep. You can fall asleep standing up!"
Mu Shishuang rubbed her slightly sleepy eyes. In the past, she would never have thought about sleeping. Since her strength was sealed, her daily routine has become more and more like that of an ordinary person.
Mu Shishuang glanced at the papers and ink scattered on the table, then asked, "Have you finished reading? Do you need me to run you a hot bath?"
"You don't need to worry about these things. Go to the side room and go to sleep. If you want to wash up before sleeping, I'll make you some hot water. If you do it, it'll be morning by then!" Lin Ran complained as she tidied the table.
Hearing Lin Ran's words, Mu Shishuang felt a warm current flow through her heart, and she continued to ask, "What can I do?"
"All you can do is try not to make me angry and avoid doing any weird things, and I'll be thankful!"
Lin Ran's words came from the bottom of his heart. If Mu Shishuang's personality could be less twisted and become normal, he would feel much more at ease and could release the seal on Mu Shishuang so that she could go back and take better care of Mu Qiqin.
A glint flashed in Mu Shishuang's eyes. She suddenly stepped forward, hugged Lin Ran from behind, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in Lin Ran's ear, "Thank you!"
After saying that, before Lin Ran could react, Mu Shishuang took a few steps back, turned around and went into the side bedroom.
Lin Ran, a beat slow to react, belatedly looked at the side-lying area. He subconsciously touched his face and found it was actually a little hot. He... had just... had shamefully felt a flutter in his heart.
"Holy crap, something's wrong, guys!"
……
109. Arrive at Canglong Academy
"Do not listen to the sound of rain pattering through the trees!"
In a bamboo forest in the dangerous triangle area of Jiezhou, rain was pouring down from the sky, but inside the bamboo forest, a group of people were fighting despite the rain.
"Snapped!"
"Qiang!"
"Boom!"
The sounds of footsteps stomping in puddles, the clash of weapons, the collision of flesh, and the patter of rain on leaves combined to form a long, drawn-out melody, sometimes stirring, sometimes somber, sometimes high-pitched and unstoppable, and sometimes bitter and stagnant.
The "music" playing in the bamboo forest was observed by three people hidden in a large tree nearby. The three were wearing black raincoats, and the one in the middle was holding a strange tube in front of his eyes.
"Sigh, these kids have finally passed the test. I can rest assured now that they're participating in the secret realm!"
Lin Ran put down the binoculars and breathed a sigh of relief. After nearly a month of intense searching for various experience-boosting pets to feed Fu Yuemei and the others, he finally managed to level them up.
This time, the opponent he sought out was the "Black Panther" mercenary team, which was "somewhat famous" in the dangerous triangle area. The despicable things they did were too numerous to describe. Murder, arson, burning, killing, and looting were just commonplace for this mercenary team.
They also have a rich history of killing their employers, refusing to pay at brothels, and even slaughtering the women they visited. Moreover, this group is indiscriminate in their sexuality, meaning they are enthusiastic about both men and women, which can be said to be unprecedented.
This mercenary team is well-coordinated and well-trained, but their strength is not particularly high. They only have one captain who has just entered the Spirit Core Realm, while the rest are all at the Transformation Realm. However, if you underestimate their combat power because of this, you will have to pay the price for your underestimation.
This group of guys once killed two Spirit Core Realm experts who joined forces to fight them. It was this feat that allowed the "Black Panther" mercenary team to survive until now.
However, the "Black Panther" mercenary team has now been almost wiped out by Fu Yuemei and her group. Only the captain, who is at the Spirit Pill Realm, is being besieged. The rest of them have long since gone to hell.
The battle taking place in the center of the bamboo forest was between Fu Yuemei, a woman with silver hair, and a giant man who looked like a small giant with a full beard.
With a resolute and indifferent look in her eyes, Fu Yuemei, after a month of tempering, is no longer the soft-hearted young girl she once was.
Fu Yuemei waved her fan, and swirling pale pink winds compressed the giant's space to move. In addition, a bewitching flower would appear out of thin air in her left hand, turning into a beam of red light that would attack the giant's vitals from an extremely tricky angle.
The giant struggled to defend himself, repeatedly trying to rush forward and force Fu Yuemei into close combat, but was blocked by the pink whirlwind. Forcing his way in only resulted in him getting injured repeatedly.
Fu Yuemei's playing style is very steady, and could even be described as somewhat cunning and treacherous.
This was naturally a masterpiece of Lin Ran's teachings; he had seriously studied the Flower Sect's lineage.
Overall, the Flower Sect's legacy is really suitable for playing like a mage. It can also be played as a melee mage, but you have to make full use of your skill advantages.
"You...you damned bunch..."
Finally, the giant pointed tremblingly at Fu Yuemei, then collapsed backward with a thud. His body was already riddled with bloody holes, and what was terrifying was that vines and flowers were growing out of those holes, an extremely alluring sight.
"call!"
Fu Yuemei exhaled a breath of stale air. She couldn't help but tilt her head back and close her eyes, feeling the cold raindrops pattering on her face. The fresh scent of earth mixed with a hint of blood filled her nostrils.
She took a deep breath, reopened her eyes, looked at Chi Sinian and the others, and said, "Let's quickly clean up this mess!"
"it is good!"
……
Because of the unique existence of the Danger Triangle Zone in Jiezhou, most ordinary people in Jiezhou can save their lives, which are as fragile as grass, if they can enter the area protected by the five great academies. Among them, the Azure Dragon Academy, which is the first among the five great academies, is the most desirable.
As the most powerful academy in Jiezhou and the entire continent, it is a place that many young people aspire to. As long as you can squeeze into the Azure Dragon Academy, your future academic performance will generally be good.
The Canglong Academy is located in Canglong City, which is the largest city in Jiezhou, with the most prosperous streets and extremely developed transportation facilities.
This place connects several major continents via space tunnels. Even the Holy Sky Academy is slightly inferior to the Azure Dragon Academy, which further solidifies the Azure Dragon Academy's leading position in the entire continent.
When Lin Ran led a group of children on a long journey to Canglong City, they were all taken aback by the enormous city. Canglong City was situated in a valley, and it could be said that it was built by relying on the valley.
Legend has it that the valley is actually the place where a giant dragon passed away, and the dragon's spine transformed into this long valley. The founder of Canglong Academy discovered this place and thus established Canglong Academy.
Of course, these are just unverified rumors, and it's possible that the rumors are true, but so what? Anyway, Lin Ran, who has read the original work, knows that the final battle will definitely not take place in these academies.
Lin Ran did not rush to enter Canglong City. He and the children's carriages were parked on a well-maintained road not far from the city. Pedestrians came and went in an endless stream, glancing at them before looking away.
Fighting is strictly prohibited inside and outside Canglong City, or you'll be punished by the Canglong City guards!
"Father, is there a reason why we haven't entered the city yet?"
Lin Chong walked up to Lin Ran's carriage, pointed to his friends over there, and said, "Xiao Zhuang and the others are getting impatient to go into Canglong City to take a look!"
"You young people are in such a hurry!"
Lin Ran picked up a pale green spiritual fruit that resembled sugarcane, took a bite, spat the residue onto the roadside, and gazed thoughtfully at the ancient yet solemn and imposing city gate in the distance.
After a while, Lin Ran put the otherworldly "sugarcane" aside and reminded Lin Chong, "Remind Yuemei to hide her hair. I'll take you into the city now!"
"I see!"
Lin Chong nodded and returned to the rear.
Before long, Lin Ran and her group headed directly towards the smaller gate of the city. Compared to the bustling main gate, it was quite deserted, with only two guards standing guard there, who seemed to be chatting and acting nonchalantly.
But things weren't as simple as they seemed. According to Lin Ran's perception, both of the gatekeepers were at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and there was also a hidden aura above the city tower, which was initially estimated to be at least at the Spirit Core Realm level.
"The Azure Dragon Academy is truly remarkable!"
Lin Ran sighed inwardly and was about to drive over when he heard a few "Pui!" sounds from the car behind him. He knew without a doubt that Mu Shishuang had taken his otherworldly "sugarcane" and started eating it.
Over the past month, this girl has become increasingly outgoing and familiar with him. She dresses more and more casually in front of him, and her personality has become more and more eccentric. She always seems to want to provoke him, and he has beaten her up several times. When he treats her injuries, he can always feel the dampness on his hands.
He wanted to get away, but the further away he got, the more clingy the girl became. He was starting to have trouble dealing with her, and sometimes he even thought about destroying the antidote so that Mu Shishuang would be stuck like this for the rest of her life.
Otherwise, if he were to inexplicably give away the antidote one day, and that girl turned her back on him again, then it would be his turn to get beaten up.
Lin Ran's carriage stopped in front of the gate. He got off the carriage and walked slowly toward the two guards. He could feel the subtle aura upstairs locking onto him.
He looked at the two Spirit Transformation Realm guards, took out the token from Linghua Academy and the jade tube that Canglong Academy had sent earlier, and handed them over, saying, "We are the people from Linghua Academy participating in this competition. I am the team leader, Lin Ran!"
There was no sign of looking down on anyone. The two guards had clearly received orders beforehand. Upon seeing the token and learning Lin Ran's name, they immediately stood up straight and respectfully bowed to Lin Ran.
At the same time, the subtle aura of the Spirit Pill Realm emerged from the city tower. It was an old man dressed in the robes of an elder of the Azure Dragon Academy, whose bald head was particularly eye-catching.
The old man looked at Lin Ran, grinned, and came forward excitedly, saying, "Vice Dean Lin, welcome to our Canglong Academy from Linghua Academy! I've sent people to welcome you and give you a proper welcome!"
The old man had a very loud voice, and all the people who were entering the city looked over immediately. At first, they thought it was some important person passing through the small city gate, but they didn't expect it to be Linghua Academy.
"It's actually people from the five great academies!"
"What five great academies? Linghua Academy is so bad it's almost been removed from the list!"
"Ah, is that so?"
Such discussions suddenly rose and fell near the city gate. Inside Fu Yuemei's carriage, a group of girls couldn't help but start complaining.
Hearing the noise outside, Xiaoqian's chest heaved with anger. She said furiously, "That old man from Canglong Academy is probably doing this on purpose!"
Chi Sinian, who was standing nearby, added, "It's more than 80% likely, it's intentional!"
Suddenly, the carriage was filled with chatter, with everyone criticizing those who were gossiping and the old man who was the culprit.
Before long, Fu Yuemei spoke up to stop them, saying, "You should talk less. You'll only cause trouble if you say the wrong thing. If you do this, you might offend the Azure Dragon Academy. After all, this is their territory!"
The carriage quieted down after Fu Yuemei said that.
Lin Ran, standing at the city gate, was quite thick-skinned. After exchanging a few words with the bald man, he led his convoy into the city with the people from Canglong Academy.
Upon entering Canglong City, as Lin Ran drove the carriage, the curtain behind him was opened, and a small head peeked out. Mu Shishuang, with her hair tied in a bun, looked at Lin Ran and asked softly, "Are you in a good mood?"
"What's wrong?"
Lin Ran was a little confused, so he turned to look at Mu Shishuang.
"If someone talked to me like that, they probably wouldn't see the sun tomorrow..."
Before Mu Shishuang could say anything more, she was flicked on the head. She instinctively covered her head and looked at Lin Ran, a little dazed.
"This is someone else's territory. It's not normal for our Linghua Academy to be looked down upon with our strength. Besides, the people from Canglong Academy are not easy to get along with!"
Lin Ran recalled the outer dean of the Azure Dragon Academy who had once fought with her at the Medicine King Sect for the heart fragment of the Tree of Wisdom. That guy looked kind and amiable, just like Yue Buqun.
