! "What?"
Before Elder Hu could react, Ruolin, the instructor beside him, couldn't contain her shock and exclaimed.
Elder Hu didn't blame her, as he too was deeply shocked by Lin Feng.
It wasn't Lin Feng's arrogance; if that were all, it wouldn't be worth the disbelief of the instructors and elders of Canaan Academy.
It was the aura Lin Feng exuded in that instant that was truly unbelievable.
"A Dou Wang!?"
Elder Hu ripped off his beloved beard, staring dumbfounded, muttering to himself.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! If the information from the spy is correct, you're only eighteen years old. How could you have reached the Dou Wang realm, and even be a fourth-grade alchemist!"
Lin Feng was already used to Elder Hu's shocked expression. Back then, Fa Ma, as a witness, was the only person besides Little Fairy Doctor who knew that he was also a fifth-grade alchemist, and his expression was even more extreme than Elder Hu's now.
Therefore, Lin Feng simply smiled slightly, offering no further explanation, and waited for the other person to calm down on their own.
"Master Lin Feng!"
As expected of an elder of Canaan Academy standing tall in the Black Corner Region, although initially shocked, he quickly recovered and respectfully cupped his hands towards Lin Feng.
"Please forgive me, I have no authority to agree to this matter. Perhaps it is the Vice Dean of the Outer Court, Hu Qian, who has the authority to decide whether to grant Master Lin Feng's request."
After a pause, Elder Hu seemed to want to salvage the situation, then looked at Little Fairy Doctor beside Lin Feng.
"As for this Little Fairy Doctor, she only needs to meet the academy's requirements to enroll normally. Master Lin Feng can also accompany her to the academy, and then the Vice Dean will discuss it with Master Lin Feng. What does Master think?"
Hearing this, a thoughtful glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes.
"As expected of an elder of Canaan Academy. Although he didn't want to offend someone who was also a Dou Wang and even a fourth-grade alchemist, his tone was neither humble nor arrogant, always adhering to the academy's rules." "
Interesting!"
"Hahaha, Elder Hu is right. In that case, let's do as Elder Hu says. Please have Instructor Ruolin test Xian'er according to the academy's rules."
As soon as Lin Feng spoke, Elder Hu, whose expression had been somewhat serious, burst out laughing. Although he wasn't afraid of Lin Feng, who was also a Dou Wang, he hadn't come here to fight. Besides, he didn't think the other party would bully a young person.
"Please tell us your age and Dou skill level, Miss Little Fairy Doctor." Having received the instruction, Instructor Ruolin slowly stepped forward. Although she had just been frightened, she had regained her gentle teacherly demeanor. Then, as if remembering something, she added a sentence.
"If you're an alchemist, please state your alchemist rank as well."
Little Fairy Doctor glanced at Lin Feng, recalling his earlier words about not needing to hide anything, and stepped forward, speaking softly.
"Little Fairy Doctor, thirteen years old, a peak nine-star Dou Shi, not an alchemist."
"That's alright, that's normal, not a monstrous alchemist and Dou Wang powerhouse. Wait, what? You said your age and rank?"
Instructor Ruolin nodded, slightly relieved after confirming that this monstrous talent was indeed just a prodigy. Then, she froze, as if she had heard something earth-shattering.
"A thirteen-year-old nine-star Dou Shi??"
After confirming with Little Fairy Doctor again, Instructor Ruolin's years of teaching composure vanished instantly, her body heaving with excitement, making Little Fairy Doctor envious.
After a long while, she recovered, but the smile was gone from her face, as if she had experienced a terrible shock.
After taking a deep breath
, Instructor Ruolin slowly said, "According to the academy's ranking rules, Miss Little Fairy Doctor has already surpassed S-rank and is entitled to the highest level of treatment. With the Vice Dean's permission, she could even receive additional rewards, but that's beyond my ability to promise."
Then, as if remembering something, Ruolin's eyes suddenly burned with fervor, her gaze fixed intently on Little Fairy Doctor.
"I wonder if Miss Little Fairy Doctor would be willing to join my class? I can promise her the greatest convenience within my authority." Little Fairy Doctor didn't
care about this; she just wanted to be by Lin Feng's side. As for resources, for her, who could improve with any poison, Lin Feng's support was insignificant compared to the help of a junior instructor at Canaan Academy. Lin Feng
, however, thought that it would be good if Little Fairy Doctor could have a few friends. After all, she was either in seclusion cultivating or refining medicine, and given her breakthrough speed, she would break through to the Dou Ling realm in at most six months.
If she wanted, she could apply to enter the inner academy at any time, although it wouldn't comply with the academy's regulations. But for geniuses, the rules can always be flexible.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble Instructor Ruolin to take care of me from now on."
At Lin Feng's prompting, Little Fairy Doctor agreed. Moreover, she glanced at Ruolin's ample bosom, "Perhaps, I really can get the secret manual!"
After finalizing all the formalities, Lin Feng and Little Fairy Doctor greeted Instructor Ruolin and agreed to return on time on the last day of the enrollment. They then slowly left under Instructor Ruolin's joyful gaze.
"Having recruited such a talented student, even if I don't have enough qualifications, I might get the Xuan-rank instructor spot this year."
Seemingly imagining herself ascending to the Xuan-rank position amidst the envious gazes of her colleagues, Instructor Ruolin couldn't help but let out a terrifying goose-like laugh. She immediately stopped, quickly looked around, and once she found no one, she immediately resumed her gentle and charming demeanor. As
for Lin Feng and Little Fairy Doctor, after leaving the enrollment office, they strolled around the market in Wutan City. For the two of them, such leisurely time had been a long time coming, so they cherished it greatly.
They passed many vendors along the way, stopping to look at each one. Then, with remarkable coordination, they took turns haggling over a fifty-gold-coin bracelet with a vendor. It wasn't some rare treasure;
they had seen countless precious things, but this was because they were accompanied by someone they cherished.
Finally, after much haggling, they acquired the bracelet for forty-five gold coins. Under Little Fairy Doctor's delighted gaze, Lin Feng helped her put it on her wrist.
After strolling around for an afternoon, Lin Feng and Little Fairy Doctor had explored every corner of the small town and left satisfied.
As night fell, in an inn in Wutan City, Lin Feng gave Little Fairy Doctor a heads-up, then donned black clothes and strode off in a certain direction, disappearing into the vast darkness.
In the Xiao family compound of Wutan City, in a fairly spacious room, a handsome young man sat cross-legged on the bed, his palms clasped together at his dantian.
With each gentle breath, the battle qi energy of heaven and earth slowly flowed into his body; he appeared extremely diligent.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the young man stopped his meditation, slamming his palm onto the bed with considerable force.
"Damn it, not again!"
"Thump!" Suddenly, as if attacked
by something, the young man, his words filled with resentment unfinished, collapsed onto the bed. His expression was still full of anger, seemingly unaware that he had been attacked. (End of Chapter)
