Reborn as the Candle Dragon, I became the strongest academy guardian beast.

The next morning.

As soon as it was light, Zhou Guoliang arrived at Qinglong College with staff from the Education Bureau.

As the first place winner of the martial arts tournament, Qinglong Academy will enjoy maximum resource support from the Education Bureau for the following year.

Two trucks loaded with martial arts supplies slowly drove into the campus, with various techniques, potions, and body-tempering materials piled up to the brim.

Upon seeing this, many students almost thought they were still asleep.

Is this paradise?

With so many martial arts resources, even if you threw them at a dog, the dog would probably break through to a higher realm!

In addition to the overall awards from the college.

Chu Yunfeng, Xu Liyue, Lin Fan, and Kong Bowen, who rank in the top four on the individual leaderboard, are also eligible to apply for additional rewards.

The four individuals will decide on the reward themselves, and the Education Bureau will do its best to fulfill their request within its capabilities.

The four of them quickly made a decision.

What Chu Yunfeng and Lin Fan wanted was perfectly normal.

The former chose an S-rank body-forging technique, while the latter took an S-rank lightning-based spear technique.

Kong Bowen and Xu Liyue are much stranger.

Kong Bowen only took away a bunch of poetry collections and Confucian classics.

Xu Liyue then asked Zhou Guoliang for a batch of beast blood, saying that the higher the level of the ferocious beast, the better.

Although Zhou Guoliang was puzzled by the two men's strange request, he complied with it anyway.

Several teachers from the Education Bureau went to the wild and killed several ferocious beasts, releasing three large buckets of their blood.

When they were delivered to the Azure Dragon Academy, the three buckets of beast blood were still steaming hot.

……

Martial arts training ground.

After receiving the beast blood, Xu Liyue began her cultivation.

She opened her palm, and the bronze cauldron flew out from her hand, quickly growing to half the height of a person in mid-air, hovering in front of the three barrels of beast blood.

Sensing the rich blood energy, the myriad beast totems on the cauldron emitted a deep hum.

A powerful suction force suddenly erupted, and the three buckets of beast blood transformed into three pillars of blood that flowed into the Myriad Beasts Cauldron.

The beast blood was continuously refined by the Myriad Beasts Cauldron, eventually turning into three drops of essence blood.

The first drop of essence blood came from the Ironclad Berserker Bear. Above the essence blood, the phantom of a bear roaring to the sky could be vaguely seen, exuding a sense of power as heavy as a mountain.

The second drop was the essence blood of the Wind Shadow Wolf, its color was pale, and a few wisps of breeze gently swirled around its surface.

The third drop of essence blood was from a thunderous bull, and the drop was surrounded by blue-white lightning.

Three drops of essence blood flew out from the Myriad Beasts Cauldron and flowed into Xu Liyue's body one after another.

Xu Liyue closed her eyes and concentrated, attempting to refine the three drops of essence blood.

A few minutes later.

When she opened her eyes again, her aura suddenly surged, breaking through from the second level of the third rank to the fourth level of the third rank.

His aura also became more aloof and powerful.

[Xu Liyue's cultivation level: Third Rank, Second Level → Third Rank, Fourth Level]

[Congratulations, host, you have received a refund of 3000 Evolution Points!]

Above the training field.

Looking down at Xu Liyue, Su Chen narrowed his snake-like eyes.

Xu Liyue undoubtedly gained the most from this martial arts tournament.

Not only did he tame a Vermilion Bird as a pet, he also obtained a mysterious Myriad Beasts Cauldron.

With the help of the Myriad Beasts Cauldron, Xu Liyue's cultivation level even surpassed Lin Fan's.

However, given Lin Fan's incredible luck, he might catch up soon.

The people we really need to be careful of are Chu Yunfeng and Kong Bowen.

Although both of them were quite talented, they were facing two different people: one was the chosen one, and the other was the future empress.

If one slacks off even slightly in their cultivation, their cultivation level is likely to be left far behind.

Just then, Su Chen slightly turned the snake's head and saw a figure walking towards the training ground.

"Guardian Beast Master!"

The person who arrived was Shen Danqing.

Seeing that Su Chen had noticed her, Shen Danqing jogged forward, her face beaming with undisguised excitement: "Guardian Beast Master! I've successfully refined my first batch of pills!"

As she spoke, she opened her palm, revealing several pills lying quietly in it.

Su Chen lowered his head, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

How long has it been?

In just one day, Shen Danqing, who had never been involved in alchemy before, actually produced his first batch of pills.

He truly deserves to be called a genius in alchemy!

"Have you tried the medicine and seen its effects?" Su Chen asked.

Shen Danqing shook his head: "Not yet."

Su Chen thought for a moment, then looked at Chu Yunfeng, who was in the training ground, and said, "Chu Yunfeng, why don't you try these pills?"

With his extraordinary recovery ability, Chu Yunfeng was undoubtedly the best guinea pig.

"Drug testing?"

Chu Yunfeng walked over, took a pill from Shen Danqing's hand, and casually asked, "Junior sister, how long have you been learning alchemy?"

"One day." Shen Danqing adjusted his glasses and answered truthfully, "This is the first batch of pills I refined."

"One day?" Chu Yunfeng's hand trembled slightly as he took the pill.

If I eat this, won't I explode and die?

Although the Undying Black Coffin possesses extraordinary regenerative abilities, it still has its limits.

If his body were blown to pieces, he would be beyond saving.

However, testing the drug myself is still much safer than Lin Fan and the others...

As the saying goes, "If I don't go to hell, who will?"

After a two-second silence, Chu Yunfeng finally steeled himself, opened his mouth, and swallowed the pill in one gulp.

He decided to trust Shen Danqing this once.

The next second, Chu Yunfeng's eyes suddenly lit up.

Within seconds of swallowing the pill, he felt a surge of hot heat rising in his dantian, his muscles swelled slightly, and his whole body seemed to be filled with power.

"Junior, what kind of pill did you refine?" Chu Yunfeng asked in surprise.

"This is a Qi Condensation Pill. After taking it, it can temporarily raise your cultivation level by one or two minor realms. There are no side effects, but you can only take one a day at most, otherwise it will seriously damage your meridians," Shen Danqing said.

"More than just one or two levels?" Chu Yunfeng clenched his fist, feeling the abundant power within his body, and couldn't help but say, "My realm was only at the eighth level of the second tier, but now I possess at least the combat power of the second level of the third tier, an improvement of three entire minor realms! The effect of your first-grade Qi Condensation Pill is almost comparable to that of a second-grade one!"

If he weren't at school, he would have loved to unleash a forbidden spell right there and then to test its power!

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Shen Danqing pushed up her glasses in surprise and gave the remaining Condensing Yuan Pills to Chu Yunfeng: "Then I'll go back and continue refining pills. If you need any pills, senior, you can tell me anytime."

……

Ningchuan City Third Hospital.

Rehabilitation ward.

"Hello, is Chu Lingxi in this ward?"

A tall figure wearing a hat pushed open the door and entered the ward.

The nurse in the ward was about to answer when her smile froze the moment she looked up.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

The nurse spread her arms, blocking Chu Lingxi's path, and cried out in a trembling voice, "Someone come quick!"

Before he could finish speaking, the Frost Troll casually threw a punch, sending the nurse's slender body flying. She crashed against the wall and lost consciousness.

"Chu Yunfeng's younger sister..."

The Frost Troll removed his hat, revealing a ferocious face covered in blue ice crystals. He grinned, revealing a mouth full of fangs, and looked at Chu Lingxi on the hospital bed, saying in a mocking voice, "Little girl, come with me."
