Gao Quan was filled with grief and anger. Listening to Wang Baole's words, he felt that it was Wang Baole who was obstructing justice. He was extremely depressed at the moment, and his aggrieved feeling was so strong that he was about to explode, and he was about to speak.
But Wang Baole's eyes widened, and the ferocity in his eyes made Gao Quan's body tremble, and his heart became even more sad.
"Who is the evil person? This Wang Baole is the evil person!!"
The students in the surrounding lower courtyard island were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene. They looked at Wang Baole as if they were looking at a god. Some even had admiration in their eyes. Seeing Gao Quan being beaten violently, they all vented their anger. It was really shocking.
Gao Quan was very unpopular in the Taoist temple.
In particular, some of the crowd were newcomers, and all they knew about Wang Baole was from rumors. Seeing it with their own eyes at this moment, everyone was deeply shaken. You must know that even if Wang Baole has been promoted to the Upper Court Island, all his past is still in the Lower Courtyard.
The island is still spreading, and now under the shock of this strong impact, it is conceivable that it will become more and more deeply rooted in the days to come, and will be regarded as a legend by various departments.
It is even estimated that newcomers who come to the Taoist Academy in the future will grow up listening to the legend of Wang Baole after entering the Lower Courtyard Island. After they are admitted to the Upper Courtyard Island step by step, they will probably inquire about Wang Baole's news as soon as possible.
In fact, in the hearts of the students on Lower Courtyard Island, Wang Baole... has become the ultimate myth among students that cannot be surpassed...
The commander in charge of the first department had a huge headache at the moment. Although Wang Baole was excellent, he was also capable of causing trouble, especially the conflict he had with Gao Quan. But after he left, he actually came back to give the commander a beating.
They both couldn’t laugh or cry either.
At this moment, when I was thinking about how to deal with it, Zhou Xiaoya's soft voice came out from the central square.
"Brother Baole... there is no need to take another test, the results are always the same." After saying that, Zhou Xiaoya came to Wang Baole's side, held his hand, and shook his head gently.
"How can that be done!" Just when Wang Baole was about to continue speaking, the old man from Dan Dao Pavilion sitting next to the headmaster suddenly laughed.
"Young man, are you sure you want to take another test?"
Wang Baole had noticed the old man for a long time. When he heard the words, he felt that there was something wrong in the words, so he looked at Zhou Xiaoya and then at the old man. In fact, the other party just sat back and watched him take action without stopping, which made Wang Baole feel deep in his heart.
Speculated.
Seeing Wang Baole's expression, the old man from Dandao Pavilion smiled slightly, moved his eyes away, and landed on Zhou Xiaoya. He looked slightly serious and asked.
"Zhou Xiaoya, tell me, why did you put in the afterglow grass at the end?"
After hearing the old man's words, Zhou Xiaoya took a deep breath, did not let go of Wang Baole's hand, and spoke softly.
"Because according to the prescription of Yunxi Dan, the higher the purity, the more poisonous the medicine is. And afterglow grass can neutralize the poison, so... I put in afterglow grass."
As soon as Zhou Xiaoya's words came out, the surroundings immediately became quiet. Chen Fei was also stunned for a moment and looked at Zhou Xiaoya suddenly. As for Wang Baole, he blinked at this moment and looked down at the helpless Vice-President Gao Quan.
say.
"Did you know that adding Afterglow Grass can neutralize the poison, but it will affect the purity?" The old man from Dandao Pavilion's eyes became sharper, as if he wanted to see through Zhou Xiaoya's heart.
"Students know." Zhou Xiaoya was a little scared, holding Wang Baole's hand tighter, and whispered.
"You know? You must also know that the assessment standard this time is based on purity, so why do you still do it? Maybe you don't want to get the reward of the special move!" The old man of Dandao Pavilion spoke slowly, but his eyes were more fierce.
It was so thick that even pressure radiated from his body. Even Wang Baole felt frightened by this pressure.
Zhou Xiaoya's breathing was rapid and her body was trembling, but after feeling Wang Baole's slightly tightened hand, she firmly raised her head, looked at the old man in Dandao Pavilion, her eyes were clear, and she spoke softly with a sense of persistence.
"Because the way of alchemy is people-oriented. If you only pursue purity and don't care about the poison, what the students will eventually refine will not be good elixirs for healing people and assisting in cultivation, but evil elixirs that harm people..."
"Even if the students make some changes, win with purity, and get rewards, I can hide it from others, but I can't hide it from myself. Some things happen once and there will be a second time. I don't want to harm others, I just want to be right.
The elixir I refine is worthy of my own conscience and worthy of anyone who takes my elixir!"
"The student's elixir is not pure enough, but it... is not poisonous." Zhou Xiaoya's voice was very low at first, but gradually it became louder.
She has always been timid and has been like this since she was a child, but today, under the spotlight and with Wang Baole by her side, she expressed her ideas about alchemy, her goals and principles for alchemy
!
Deep down in her heart, she said to herself:
"I will always make elixirs for Brother Baole..."
These words spread from her mouth and fell into the ears of everyone around. Everyone was deeply shocked, especially the students of the Alchemy Department, who fell silent.
Chen Fei's body trembled, and when she saw the serious face of the old man in Dan Dao Pavilion, she slowly began to have expectations again. She was worried about gains and losses, and was extremely nervous.
Wang Baole's heart was also trembling, and he turned his head to look at Zhou Xiaoya, as if he was meeting her for the first time.
There was silence all around. Even the deputy commander Gao Quan seemed to have forgotten the pain. When he looked at Zhou Xiaoya, with complicated and unspeakable thoughts, the commander also fell silent, but there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
with strong appreciation.
The old man from Dandao Pavilion on the side was silent for a long time, with memories in his eyes. It seemed that Zhou Xiaoya's words reminded him of someone in his past. After a while, he sighed softly, and the seriousness on his face gradually turned into kindness. He looked at Zhou Xiaoya and suddenly said
.
"It is very valuable to take the good elixir as the concept...Zhou Xiaoya, you don't need to call yourself a student. If you want, you can call yourself a disciple in front of me!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd around him shook wildly. Wang Baole was also surprised. Chen Fei felt that her eyes were darkening, her body staggered as if she could not stand steady, and her face became extremely pale.
"Ah?" Zhou Xiaoya was the only one who was confused at this moment, a little at a loss, and subconsciously looked at Wang Baole.
It was at this time that the old man from Dan Dao Pavilion stood up with a smile and smiled at the headmaster beside him.
"Lao Lu, I will take this girl away and make her a closed disciple. Can you let her go?"
The headmaster laughed loudly and stood up. He was also happy for Zhou Xiaoya and even more excited. He knew the identity of the old man in front of him. He was one of the four elders of the Alchemy Pavilion. He was famous throughout the entire federation on the journey of Alchemy.
Famous.
"Xiaoya, you haven't become a disciple yet!" Thinking of this, the headmaster looked at Zhou Xiaoya with encouragement in his eyes.
Wang Baole was also happy and quickly pulled Zhou Xiaoya. Only then did Zhou Xiaoya realize. Although she was still a little confused, she was not stupid. Her face was flushed and she stepped forward and bowed.
"Disciple pays homage to Master!"
The old man from Dandao Pavilion laughed loudly, flicked his sleeves, and took Zhou Xiaoya away in the air, heading straight to Shangyuan Island. From the beginning to the end, he did not even look at Chen Fei, let alone mention the reward.
"What kind of cultivation does this old man have, that he can step into the air?!" This scene made Wang Baole shrink his eyes.
Everyone around them was trembling, looking at Zhou Xiaoya's figure in the sky, especially the students from the Alchemy Department, who showed envy. As for Chen Fei, her face was pale at the moment, and she was sitting on the ground.
At this moment, from far away, the old man's smiling voice and Zhou Xiaoya's call came from the sky.
"Wang Baole, please don't disturb Xiaoya during this period. She is going into seclusion. I will get her eight-inch spiritual roots. If you don't work hard to practice, you might be surpassed by her."
"Brother Baole, when I come out of seclusion, I will go find you..."
Looking at the two people's retreating figures, Wang Baole grinned. He was happy for Zhou Xiaoya, and when he was about to leave, he noticed the gaze that the commander was glaring at him, so he scratched his head and loosened his grip on Gao Quan's hair.
hand.
"You've already been admitted to the Shangyuan Island, why are you still so impulsive!" The Shangyuan glared at Wang Baole.
Wang Baole was a little embarrassed. He looked down at the aggrieved Gao Quan, coughed dryly, and patted the trembling Gao Quan on the shoulder.
"Old Gao, do less bad things and more good things from now on, you know?"
"Headmaster, I remembered that there is another magic weapon that is halfway through refining. I'll leave first..." As he said that, Wang Baole hurriedly swayed and flew straight into the airship. He quickly left the alchemy system and headed straight for Shangyuan Island.
Watching Wang Baole go away, everyone around looked at each other in confusion, and the headmaster was also helpless. Finally, he looked at Gao Quan, who had a look of grievance on his face, knowing that this was a misunderstanding, and sighed.
"Gao Quan, you..." He wanted to comfort him, but he couldn't say anything. In the end, he simply gave Gao Quan a bottle of elixir, thinking in his heart that he should change to a deputy commander, and turned to leave.
Only Gao Quan stood there in grief and indignation, wanting to cry without tears, and the feeling of injustice and grievance in his heart spread to the sky.
