Volume 1, Chapter 63: Just Pretend You Were Bitten by a Dog

Qu Pan and Chu Hanliang walked out of the lower courtyard hand in hand, looking like a deeply affectionate couple to outsiders. Only Chu Hanliang knew how much repulsion was hidden in Qu Pan's heart at this moment.

Inside the cave, the large man floated out, gazing at his former sworn brother with a gaze filled with complex emotions.

Seeing the slightly exaggerated reactions of the two, Ye Mo could only respond with a helpless smile. Suddenly, someone tapped her shoulder unceremoniously. Subconsciously turning her head, Ye Mo found Wu Sehun smiling broadly and waving at her.

Then there was Xu Changqing, who had gathered enough spiritual energy to be guided upward only with the assistance of Zi Xuan's inner core, which had been refined from the Water Spirit Bead.

Yet as for this Wei Li, even when her entire family died, she had never seemed this sorrowful; why was she heartbroken to the point of dying just over losing a turtle?

Madam Yu was already of advanced age and had long since passed the prime time for childbearing. The child in her belly right now was one she had prayed for through countless sleepless nights. If anything were to happen to her, she would certainly feel deeply guilty.

She looked faultless from every angle; if she dressed up nicely after starting a relationship, she might even stand a chance of becoming the campus belle.

Next came the series of inquiries directed at the students by the teachers. After the first two students were questioned, it was finally Ye Mo's turn.

"With Nether Fire and Ge Zhan joining forces, Liu Yi and everyone from Mount Tianyong are naturally their enemies. It's no wonder they would disparage Liu Yi. Still, what he said might not be entirely untrue. Although Liu Yi has delivered eye-catching performances so far, he truly lacks any remarkable combat achievements!" said a person nearby, wearing an expression of someone who knew the inside story.

It was as if the passage of time flowed like a river before their eyes, while what remained unchanged was a scroll of Taoist scriptures, a single green vine, and a bronze lamp.

Finally, the day of the ranking examination arrived. This test would reshape the standings of every student in the school, and everyone crammed through the night, creating a tense atmosphere.

Due to censorship regulations, several risqué scenes naturally had to be edited out, but this did not dampen the audience's unprecedentedly surging curiosity.

Zhou Xin chuckled softly. If she had wanted to butter up Xiao Ye, she would have done so long ago, as Xiao Ye had already demonstrated his strength. However, she chose not to pander to him for a reason—she naturally had her own trump cards.

When Long Aotian uttered those words, the majestic aura of one accustomed to a position of high authority for long periods instantly emanated from him, glowing with a brilliant golden light.

For instance, affected by this temperature, the ultra-strong alloy of the scouting probe's reserve model had already developed ice crystals on its joints, severely hindering its movement speed.

After everyone expressed their stance through cold, silent gazes, Mo Xiaoxiao finally began to realize that her common sense had deviated once again.

Li Yuanchao pleaded, "This is all we have on us. If you feel it's still not enough, once we find the clematis, we will pay you this exact amount again!"

Hearing Leng Nan's tone, a flash of cold light shot from Chen Tianxiu's eyes, slashing toward Leng Nan like an unsheathed saber, causing the surrounding air to grow chillingly cold.

Guo Jiefang felt his rifle was too short and inconvenient for close-quarters bayonet combat, so he casually picked up a pitchfork from the corner of the wall.

Although it sacrificed her sleeping time, for Ning Dai, the results of this night were still quite gratifying.

"Chu Zhen, we are all family. Why do you always make things difficult for Chu Feng at every turn?" Chu Yue looked at Chu Zhen with displeasure.

He reminded Mo Tianxin once, then waved his hand, turned, and dashed into the curtain of rain, vanishing from Mo Tianxin's sight shortly after.

Band-like black clouds coiled around the grand hall like demonic Qi from the netherworld, striking terror into the hearts of anyone who looked upon them.

"I don't care, you must immediately start gathering those materials for me. I want to activate more traits right now. Compared to you, I realize I don't have any special qualities left!" Moling protested loudly.
