Cultivation begins with the Druid panel

As the morning glow enveloped the mountains in the east and a gentle breeze caressed their faces, Lu Lin and Shen Luo used their wind manipulation techniques to arrive at Tianhang Mountain.

Standing on the steps halfway up the mountain, the two took deep breaths and felt that the air on the mountain was inexplicably sweeter than that at the foot of the mountain.

Then the two looked up at the sky; it should have been around 5 a.m.

Shen Luo said, "If we hurry, we might still be able to make it in time for breakfast this morning."

After saying that, he took the lead and ran towards the top of Tianhang Mountain.

Seeing this, Lu Lin quickly followed.

The two of them ran up the steps, taking two steps at a time. With the help of spiritual power, they reached the top of the mountain in just half an hour and pushed open the gate of the mansion.

Behind the gate, the aerospace instructor and his three senior brothers and sisters were indeed having a meal.

All four of them looked towards the courtyard gate.

Upon seeing Lu Lin and Shen Luo return, their expressions were somewhat strange, and the aerospace engineer also frowned slightly: "Why are you back? You've only been down the mountain for three days."

Lu Lin and Shen Luo didn't rush to answer their master's question, but instead quickly sat down at the dinner table.

Shen Luo said, "Master, we only spent three days to get a pretty good feel for Peacock City. Our eldest brother said that we had enough training and let us come back."

Upon hearing that it was the senior brother's idea, the aerospace master frowned even more and stretched out his hand to the two of them: "Give me your training notes to take a look."

Lu Lin quickly took out the notebook and handed it to his master.

The aerospace instructor looked on with suspicion, and his fellow students also crowded around to look.

The training log was filled with detailed descriptions, not only of the power structure in Peacock City, but also of what the two of them had done during their three days down the mountain.

Shi Jiayi took a look at the contents of the journal and rolled her eyes.

As expected.

Tianhang Mountain has produced two more street urchins in the cultivation world.

He'd only been down the mountain for three days, yet he'd already learned how to drug people and steal things.

The astronaut instructor looked at the training manual, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Are either of you injured?"

Lu Lin and Shen Luo shook their heads repeatedly.

Looking at the delicious food on the table, rubbing his hands together with envy, Shen Luo couldn't wait to ask, "Master, how did it go? Did we pass the training? Can we eat now?"

The two had been climbing the mountain for a long time and were starving. In addition, the food in Peacock City was not good. Now that they were climbing the mountain, they were looking forward to this meal.

The astronaut instructor breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that neither of them was injured. Seeing how hungry they were, he said, "Eat up, eat up."

Upon receiving their master's order, Lu Lin and Shen Luo began to wolf down the food on the table. Seeing this, their fellow disciples silently put down their chopsticks.

Half an hour later, the food on the table was devoured by the two of them as if swept away by a whirlwind. Only then did the aerospace engineer ask:

"Haven't you improved in the three days since you came down the mountain?"

"It's gone up! It's gone up!"

The two nodded in unison.

"Where are those stolen items? Take them all out," the astronaut instructor continued.

The two nodded upon hearing this and emptied their Qiankun bags, which contained high-end mahogany furniture, luxurious-looking brass items, and several bolts of smooth, soft cloth.

"Second brother, go and pack these things up," the aerospace engineer said.

"Yes." The second senior brother cupped his hands in response, then turned and carried away all the things on the ground.

The aerospace engineer then looked at Lu Lin and Shen Luo.

Their faces were filled with pride, as if they were waiting for praise. The aerospace master looked at them, remained silent for a moment, and then turned to look at the third and fourth senior sisters.

"You two, take them down and check their strength changes, then help them with body tempering," the aerospace master instructed.

"Yes." The two senior sisters nodded in unison, and then led Lu Lin and Shen Luo away respectively.

Lu Lin and Shen Luo followed behind their two senior sisters and parted ways at the entrance of the mansion.

Shi Jiayi, standing in front of Lu Lin, asked, "You just finished eating, go and digest first, then we'll fight."

The two arrived in the bamboo forest.

Lu Lin nodded upon hearing this: "Alright, this will also allow me to recover some of my spiritual energy."

As they talked, Lu Lin sat cross-legged on a rock in the bamboo forest, then asked curiously:

"Senior sister, can I use weapons when the fight starts later?"

Since training once in the valley outside Peacock City, Lu Lin had not used a fan to form hand seals. He wanted to try it out in front of Shi Jiayi.

This is also a good opportunity to test my own strength, so that my senior sister won't get hurt by me.

Shi Jia nodded: "Sure, you can use any method you have, as long as I can see progress."

Lu Lin immediately felt confident and closed his eyes on the rock to recover his strength.

[You have entered a state of communion with nature. Heart of Nature experience points +6, Divine Connection and Profound Realm experience points +6]

[As you continue this action, your experience points will continue to increase...]

The food Lu Lin had just eaten was quickly absorbed by him, and he felt that his strength had increased by several points.

About half an hour later.

As the hour of Chen approached, Lu Lin finally opened his eyes again, and Shi Jiayi, who was sitting cross-legged beside him, opened her eyes at almost the same time and looked at him, asking:

"Has it digested?"

"Hmm." Lu Lin jumped off the rock and walked to the open space.

Shi Jia walked to the opposite side of him, about ten feet away, and said, "It might hurt a little later, so you have to be mentally prepared."

"?"

Lu Lin was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

What does this mean?

As he was thinking, Shi Jiayi had already rushed in front of him, the two of them almost touching.

Shi Jia placed one hand on Lu Lin's shoulder and asked in return:

"Do you really think Master sent me to attack you to test your strength?"

Lu Lin's pupils contracted, and he immediately felt his bones go limp. He felt completely powerless. At this moment, he didn't even have the strength to move a finger, let alone summon a fan to cast a spell.

"You two are quite audacious, acting so arrogantly on your first trip down the mountain without even understanding your own strength!"

The moment Shi Jia finished speaking, Lu Lin felt the wind around him become chaotic.

Shi Jia grabbed his wrist and immediately flung him up. At the same time, two silver-white thorns appeared in her hand and stabbed towards Lu Lin's body.

However, Shi Jiayi held back, concealing the sharpness of the silver dagger in her hand, and simply poked it into Lu Lin's body without drawing blood.

In front of Shi Jiayi, Lu Lin had no power to resist at all. This battle was essentially one-sided and there was no suspense whatsoever.

Lu Lin wanted to cry but had no tears.

Another quarter of an hour passed.

Shi Jia finally stopped and said, "That's enough for today. Reflect on your mistakes and go to your master to apologize before dinner."

Lu Lin hung back on the bamboo, and upon hearing Shi Jiayi's words, weakly uttered a single word:

"Um."
