Welcome to the Happy Village in the Spiritual Realm of the Great Universe!

"What did Senior Sister Xiaobai take? That flower looks more precious than what others have gotten!" Xiaohua didn't know where the Zombie Crystal Lotus came from, but she didn't care. As long as Yunbai was not in danger, she didn't care about anything else - but of course, her Senior Sister Xiaobai would definitely win. This was Xiaohua's mysterious confidence in Yunbai.

"Junior sister, it seems that my high opinion of you is far from enough!" Mu Yun, relieved, returned to his usual calmness and composure, a faint smile spread across his face again, and his eyes looking at Yun Bai were filled with amazement, appreciation, and tenderness...

When Yun Bai came out of Area 3, it was announced that her group had finished the competition - because she was the last player to complete the event. Not only that, she was also the last player to finish the competition among the five groups.

The next step was to hand in the spiritual plants they had won. When each person handed in their spiritual plants, they had to explain why they chose this spiritual plant and their understanding of the topic. Soon it was Yun Bai's turn. Just as she was about to speak, she was stunned, because a group of people suddenly appeared in the judging panel that originally had only three old men. Most of them were not young, and they looked to be in their seventies or eighties, but their actual age was probably several hundred years old. But no matter what their appearance and age were, they all had one thing in common: everyone wore a spiritual plant master badge with nine green dots shining on their left chest. A group of ninth-grade! It turned out to be a group of ninth-grade spiritual plant masters! Among them, there were two people Yun Bai knew, one was Hu Yan, and the other was Shi Zhen!

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused here - they might not know what amazing thing Yun Bai had done before, nor did they know what the extremely rare zombie crystal lotus and the even rarer "Youwu Fruit" were, but they all recognized the badge that symbolized the ninth-grade spiritual plant master. As the top existence in the pyramid of the spiritual plant master world, even a single ninth-grade spiritual plant master, who was rarely seen at ordinary times, actually appeared in a group today. Moreover, they all came for the girl in the Tianlan school uniform!

It would be really unconscionable if people still couldn’t see Yun Bai’s specialness!

"Junior Yun Bai, greetings to all the seniors!" Seeing the other party appear, Yun Bai quickly tidied up her appearance and saluted the group of elders. Her voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for all the cultivators in the field to hear clearly.

"Haha, little Yunbai, you gave me a big surprise!" Hu Yan said happily. Seeing how familiar Hu Yan and Yunbai were, the other elders showed a hint of envy on their faces. So they hurriedly made their smiles more kind and nodded slightly to Yunbai in response (however, these people did not include Shizhen, whose mouth corners were slightly raised, and Yunbai knew that was already the biggest smile).

"Xiao Yunbai, tell me, what are you going to hand in? And why are you going to hand it in?" Hu Yan asked with a smile. This is the prescribed procedure and must be followed.

"In reply to the teacher, what I handed in was a fruit of a zombie crystal lotus. The original plant has completed a growth cycle and turned into seeds again, which were put back into the Black Water Lake by the student. Zombie crystal lotus..." Yun Bai explained the habits and characteristics of the zombie crystal lotus in a proper manner, and then explained his understanding of the question. After finishing the answer, he did not forget to bow to the group of bigwigs in front of him again.

"Haha, good answer! Old Wu, Old Xue, Old Xu, and all of you, what do you think?" Hu Yan's face was full of joy, just because Yun Bai called him "teacher" and called himself "student". Oh, looking at the envious and jealous expressions of the old guys around him, he felt secretly happy. However, just because Yun Bai called him "teacher", he couldn't directly announce Yun Bai's results.

"Old Hu, when did you get such a precious apprentice? You didn't even tell us! Is there any need to ask? Besides her, who else can be number one!" A short and fat old man next to Hu Yan stroked his beard and said happily. He is the "Old Wu" mentioned by Hu Yan. Then, "Old Xue", "Old Xu", "Old Li"... almost all the ninth-rank bosses agreed in unison.

In this way, the first champion of this inter-school league preliminary round was born!

"Wow, haha! To be honest, I am also very satisfied with this kid!" Hu Yan laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, completely forgetting that he had only taught Yun Bai for two months. "Good kid, you can go back to the team and rest first. After the results of the other four groups are all out, we will award the prizes together." As he said that, he deliberately used his body to block those big guys who were eyeing him covetously, and personally sent Yun Bai back to the rest area where the Tianlan delegation belonged. Yuan Wuhen was there, and the two vice principals Li and Fang were sitting next to him. Originally, Tianlan didn't need to send three principals to lead the team to participate in the competition, but because of the bet, the two vice principals Li and Fang used the excuse that the first post-war league was of great importance and Tianlan had to show enough attention, so they also followed.

At this moment, the two had very interesting expressions. They hated each other to death, but they still had to act very happy, and their whole faces were cramping. Unlike the two deputy proofreaders, Yuan Wuhen was simply overjoyed. He knew some of Yun Bai's background, so he had some confidence that she could enter the semi-finals. But he never thought that Yun Bai would show such extraordinary talent and win the championship of the preliminary round with an overwhelming advantage! Not only that, she also won the favor of almost all the ninth-grade spiritual plant masters! Oh, this child, she makes Tian Lan proud! Thinking of this, his long beard wanted to dance, but he had to pretend to be calm and said to his old friend Hu Yan:

"Old Hu, why did you come here in person? Xiaobai is such a jerk. He doesn't know how to respect his teacher. Why don't you ask your teacher to sit down and have a rest? He must be tired from walking so many steps!"

Yuan Ye and other teachers and students from the Tianlan delegation almost couldn't hold back their laughter, thinking, "As expected of grandpa (the principal), he can remain so calm no matter how big the situation is! I'm just afraid that he might get internal injuries..."

Yun Bai thought that this big principal was quite good at pretending, but she still apologized first and then hurriedly asked Hu Yan to sit down and rest. In fact, there was no need to rest, but just to let Hu Yan stay to irritate the two vice principals Li and Fang.

Hu Yan obviously had a good understanding with Yuan Wuhen. He stood in front of Yuan Wuhen and looked at Vice Principal Li who was sitting next to him. Vice Principal Li was stunned for two seconds, then stood up angrily and unwillingly, walked to Vice Principal Fang, and snatched the seat of a branch dean. Hu Yan was very satisfied and didn't hesitate. He sat down next to Yuan Wuhen and started to praise Yun Bai for his excellence, Yuan Wuhen for his wisdom, and Yuan Ye for his achievements... In short, he praised Yun Bai for all kinds of things. Yun Bai felt embarrassed and quickly ran away to find Xiaohua and Zhao Hongshan. The other people in Tianlan also had different expressions, happy, envious, unbelievable, jealous... and resentful.
