Chapter 8, A Vast Disparity

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Mosen, standing nearby, also realized what had happened, and from Morin's final expression, he knew the outcome without needing to ask.

I still want some," Morin said seriously

For what reason? Guo Youdao believes that this person must have a special reason

"I cannot imagine; I must get to the bottom of this," said Morin

"What have you done?" Mosen sensed something was amiss

What a joke! Moshen exclaimed in disbelief. In just one day, Lu Ping's image in his mind had undergone several transformations, from being a useless person, to not being so simple, to being unbelievable, to being incredible, and now, he is mysterious and dangerous

Do you wish to join our Zhaifeng Academy? It is not currently the enrollment period, and under normal circumstances, a typical student would have been dismissed long ago, so there would be no need for the dean to personally receive them. However, the individual before me possesses a total of fourteen levels of spirit power, with the core spirit having reached six levels. Such a level of attainment is already far superior to many graduates of Zhaifeng Academy. Yet, at this moment, he actually expresses a desire to join Zhaifeng Academy

He was astonished because he thought of the budded water lily being crushed under Lu Ping's foot. Was this a coincidence? Or did Lu Ping already know that the blooming of the water lily would lead to a tragedy

What does it mean

After scanning the cafeteria, Moshen finally spotted Morin in a rather inconspicuous corner, holding a large flatbread, occasionally tearing off a piece to stuff into his mouth, while his eyes remained fixed, unblinking, on a certain direction. Over there, Lu Ping and Su Tang were chatting while having breakfast.

Thank you, can I also go to the classrooms of each grade to attend classes? Morin asked

Which mentor would you like to work with? Guo Youdao asked

Lu Ping has trampled on many of his flowers and plants, and during his furious outbursts, he shamelessly claimed, "What I stepped on were all weeds"

Do not worry. However, Morin held him back, saying, "The dosage is not large, and I have already prepared the antidote, but it seems that the antidote may no longer be needed now"

The remaining white soup at the bottom of the bowl was carefully sucked up entirely through the straw, and upon checking the scale, it measured precisely 0.6 milliliters. Morin's expression became extremely serious as he solemnly took out the antidote originally prepared for Lu Ping, swallowed one himself, and then proceeded to drip all of the 0.6 milliliters of liquid into his mouth

It is indeed quite difficult for Mo Sen to accept this immediately; he is completely unable to reconcile the Lu Ping that has just formed in his mind with the Lu Ping he remembers. At this moment, the confusion and shock in his heart far exceed the information that Morin brought him in the latter half of the night

If this is true, then it must at least be the ability of a conduit of the Essence of the Nexus, at level four or above, said Morin. His Essence of the Nexus had reached the sixth level, and he had considerable research in this power, but perception and conduit are entirely two different realms. What Lu Ping achieved is something that even a perceiver at the sixth level of the Essence of the Nexus could not possibly accomplish; this can only be the ability of a conduit.

The wisteria vine may quietly and silently crush a certain flower or plant beneath it as it climbs and entwines with other vegetation

Mosen began his search, inquiring with everyone he met. There were quite a few people who knew Lu Ping, and soon Mosen spotted Lu Ping and Su Tang in the cafeteria of the academy. However, what about Mo Lin

Mosen? Review?

Saying that it can be resolved, Morin felt it was merely a way to flatter himself. The supposed trump card he believed in was something that people simply ignored as if nothing had happened. If one still fails to understand the enormous gap in strength under such circumstances, then they are nothing short of a complete fool

However, in the end, the poison remained untouched at the bottom of the bowl

This kid! Mo Sen was anxious; if what he had just thought was true, then it would be utterly inappropriate to target Lu Ping. This child, it seems, is likely not the kind of person everyone thinks he is

Where the poisoned needle went, Morin still does not know to this day

"Mentor?" Morin was taken aback for a moment, but quickly regained composure and unhesitatingly spoke a name: "Mosen"

Students with excellent qualifications are certainly welcomed by the academy. However, Morin's abilities have already surpassed the level that Zhaifeng Academy can teach. It feels as if a graduate from one of the four major academies has come to Zhaifeng Academy for further study, though the degree of disparity is not as exaggerated.

Mosen Leng and Molin Leng. Lu Ping merely smiled, then pointed to the empty bowl from which he had just finished his congee, and then left with Su Tang.

"Did I not tell you that this matter ends here?" Mo Sen became anxious and was about to step forward

Mosen has never paid any attention to such explanations, but now, he is thinking.

Mosen quickly walked up to Morin, but Morin's eyes were already glazed over

What poison are you using

"I did not see him make any move..." Morin said, having not taken his eyes off Lu Ping since the moment he brought this bowl of plain porridge. He observed Lu Ping drinking it mouthful by mouthful, seemingly unaware and not employing any antidote measures.

As he gazed at the flowers and plants surrounding the sleeping fire lotus, Moshen could not help but fall into deep contemplation

The Connector, and moreover one with an ability level of four or higher, caused Mo Sen's expression to become even more remarkable, for this meant that Lu Ping was an existence even more powerful than he was

I want to join the Zhaifeng Academy to observe him up close said Morin

The roots and stems of the bamboo can grow extensively, potentially damaging the roots and stems of other plants beneath the surface.

However, regardless of the circumstances, it can be considered that the intentions of the other party have been clarified. For such a capable student, there is no reason to refuse, and it is even possible to admit them outside of the regular enrollment period. The regulations of Zhi Feng Academy have always been quite lenient.

Zhai Feng Building, six stories

Yes! Morin answered affirmatively without any ambiguity, and the desire in his eyes appeared very genuine

Study! This is Morin's response

"This is how you control the dosage!" Mo Sen almost jumped up, and when he turned back to look in that direction, he saw Lu Ping also looking this way.

I approve your admission, to follow Teacher Mo Sen, who will personally guide you said Guo Youdao

Of course, but do you find it necessary to do so

The sand pit created by the earthworm grass can be easily stepped out of by a person lifting their leg

The memory is not particularly clear, but there are always some impressions that remain

Mosen was surprised, not because he was astonished that Morin knew more than he did. He had long been aware that this nephew had a profound knowledge of plants, but the focus was different compared to him as a horticulturist. The characteristics of the sleeping lotus indeed seemed to be more in line with the areas that Morin would delve into.

"How is this possible? How did he do it?" Moshen said

Morin did not pursue Lu Ping, but merely arrived at the location where Lu Ping and Su Tang had just been. He picked up the empty bowl and saw that there was a little white soup left at the bottom of the bowl

Silence

Molin's situation is that he only desires one possibility, which is that he hopes to learn a certain ability, and this ability happens to be possessed by a mentor at the Academy of Wind.

"Of course, I will no longer use this method," Morin said. Twice, or perhaps three times, he thought himself clever and infallible, yet in the end, the opponent resolved it with ease.

The fruit of the jackfruit is sharp, and when pressed among the flower beds, it can easily puncture other plants

Guo Youdao was momentarily surprised, as he initially thought that Morin would definitely be interested in the abilities of the Spirit of the Pivot Conduit. Who would have thought that what he was ultimately interested in was actually the abilities of the Spirit of the Charge Conduit, Mosen. The Spirit of the Charge, this guy is only at the second level of the heavens, he is still far from it!

Mosen suddenly came to his senses, but there was no trace of Morin anywhere around.

Morin

These are all plants that left a deep impression on Mohsen, which were trampled by Lu Ping. At that time, Mohsen was only concerned about feeling heartbroken and angry. Now, upon careful reflection, these plants, while it may be excessive to call them weeds, do have a presence that, to some extent, affects the growth of other plants, making them a somewhat disharmonious existence

Where have you run off to

However, Morin's expression did not become relaxed at all due to the recovery

It is said to show mercy, yet it is enough to poison three people; one nonchalantly drinks it, leaving the poison at the bottom of the bowl

Having conducted measurements with metering instruments and also having personally attempted it, Morin can now be one hundred percent certain that the numbness toxin he placed in that bowl of plain congee has remained precisely at the bottom of the bowl.

Soon, a look of pain appeared on his face, beads of sweat quickly oozing from his forehead, and the intense pain made it difficult for him to stand upright. However, amidst the suffering, Morin's face still displayed an extraordinary seriousness as he carefully experienced this sensation. Meanwhile, the antidote he had taken earlier quickly began to take effect, countering this pain until it was completely alleviated

Morin's expression changed slightly; after a brief contemplation, he took out a graduated straw from the pouch sewn into the inner right side of his garment

Bindweed, and - illustration - book of the heart-piercing fruit, bamboo reaching the sky, flying letter grass

What else do you want to do? Moshen asked, from this moment on, his concern had shifted from Lu Ping to his nephew.

Although Moshen does not specialize in this field, he has a considerable knowledge of plants. Numbweed is a common poisonous herb, and its toxicity is not particularly strong. Even he has the ability to prepare the antidote, especially since Morin has also controlled the dosage, which relieved his mind

The above-mentioned plants all possess strong ornamental value; however, their cultivation requires special care. Is it possible that Lu Ping's rough treatment is, in fact, a way of managing the growth of these plants?

I poisoned his porridge," said Morin

How strong is Lu Ping's strength, and how did he become so powerful? These questions greatly intrigue Morin

He ate it, but showed no reaction. Morin said, his gaze never leaving Lu Ping for a moment

Incredible ... ... The road in Mo Sen's eyes has become increasingly unfamiliar.

Mosen stood in a daze in the flowerbed, this flowerbed that he loved the most, possessed a special vitality. Could it be that all of this was due to Lu Ping's covert assistance?

However, immediately afterwards, he heard Morin mumbling: "Although the dosage has been reduced, killing three people is sufficient, how come he is completely unscathed?"

As for the Feixin grass, its growth does not significantly affect other plants; however, once it matures, its leaf fluff will fall with the wind, leading to the growth of new Feixin grass. This method of reproduction is difficult to control and can disrupt the entire plant arrangement structure of the flower bed

In the office of the dean, which offers a panoramic view of the entire academy, Dean Guo Youdao is observing the peculiar individual in a straw hat before him

"What does it mean?" Moshen was still in a daze, but Molin had already dashed forward quickly, and Moshen hurriedly followed.

Numbness
