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

After coming out of the principal's office, the few of them didn't want to join in the fun anymore, so they returned to Cangyu College from the main campus. On the way, Yuan Ye briefly introduced the inter-school league to the three of them, and Yun Bai and the others finally understood why the old principal and their teacher had considered it for so long and seemed to have made a huge decision.

"The inter-school league has to go through national primaries, regional primaries, continental auditions, preliminary rounds, semi-finals, and finals. Tianlan does not belong to any country, and with its superior status, it can skip the national primaries and directly enter the regional primaries. Generally speaking, the top 2000 in the regional primaries can participate in the continental auditions. The eight continents select a total of players to enter the preliminary rounds, the top 100 in the preliminary rounds can enter the semi-finals, and the top 100 in the semi-finals will enter the finals. Finally, these 1 players will compete for the championship, runner-up, third place, and other awards. According to the records, martial arts and other professional players must be at least a first-grade player to enter the auditions, and if they want to enter the preliminary rounds, they must be at least a first-grade player..."

"You can only enter the audition if you are in the first rank..." Yun Bai pondered over the teacher's words, thinking that the three of them didn't even know what a "rank" looked like, let alone entering the first rank. And this was just the qualification to enter the audition. If you really want to have a rank in the preliminary round, even if you are 2000th, you have to enter the first rank! You know, the "Three Clouds of Tianlan" who are called geniuses, the highest is only the third rank! It seems that this difficulty is extremely great...

"Teacher, what should we do?" Zhao Hongshan seemed to feel that the atmosphere was a little depressing, so he spoke to break the silence.

"Well... I have to think about it. But don't feel too much pressure. From another perspective, under normal circumstances, Tianlan will only recommend the most outstanding students to participate in the competition. Even if we want to see it, we don't have this opportunity. But now it's different. Such a good opportunity is given to us for free, we can't miss it! Don't think about getting any rankings. After all, the study time is short, so it's not shameful even if you lose. Just keep a calm mind and work hard to practice and improve yourself, and then study hard!" Yuanye said with a relaxed look. The careful Yun Bai and Zhao Hongshan noticed that his eyebrows twitched from time to time, which only appeared when he felt stressed.

"Teacher, have I caused you trouble?" At this time, Xiaohua, who had a very long reaction time, remembered to ask this question. Without waiting for Yuanye to answer, she found an answer for herself: "Or, I won't ask her to apologize. I will compensate her with spirit coins, and we don't have to participate in the competition." It can be seen that she is serious.

"Silly girl, you were right to hit her! If the teacher was your age, she would probably smash her stinky mouth with one slap, but you were still merciful! I will definitely teach her a lesson next time I have a chance, but you must discuss it with the teacher and your senior brothers and sisters in advance before you do it." Yuan Ye was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said to Xiao Hua. Yun Bai and the other two were infected by the laughter and laughed together, and the invisible pressure quickly dissipated.

After returning, Yuan Ye gave a few instructions and then went into his room without coming out. He must have gone to think of a way to make a plan. Yun Bai and the other two also started practicing. Xiao Hua did not pester her senior brothers and sisters to give her exercise equipment, but ran to the playground alone to compete with a several-ton rock. Yun Bai and Zhao Hongshan came to the guardhouse of the spiritual field, sat cross-legged and began to practice. After a while, the light above the spiritual field was bright, and the seeds that had already sprouted and the spiritual seedlings that had grown a lot of height expressed cheerful emotions, echoing with Yun Bai, forming a silent but harmonious spiritual power concerto, floating throughout the spiritual field. With their help, Yun Bai's practice speed has reached a higher level, and her spiritual power has become more pure and condensed, and the quality of her spiritual power has been further improved. But despite this, she still did not see the threshold to enter the second level, which made her wonder how many small spiritual stars she needed to light up to advance to the second level?

Before that, she only needs to practice step by step. At the same time, she also needs to discuss with her teacher and try to obtain the qualification to become a spiritual plant master.

There was no conversation that night. After Yun Bai added 188 more small spiritual stars, he successfully finished a whole night of practice. At the same time, he found that his senior brother was already preparing breakfast. Xiao Hua had already reclaimed another eight acres of land next to the original spiritual field, and still felt that he had endless energy. Yuan Ye soon sat at the table with two big white circles under his eyes waiting for dinner - yes, this is another magical thing about him. Whenever his energy is seriously depleted, he will grow two white circles under his eyes, embedded in his big black and shiny face, which is indescribably funny. It's like a panda's gene mutation, growing black and white colors reversed.

Unable to wait to finish breakfast, Yuan Ye announced to his three disciples, "I have thought about it. If we want to achieve good results in a year and a half, we must first have talents. Now there are only three of you, and our strength is still too weak. So, today we will go to the town near the border of Bei Liao State. It is relatively remote and less affected by the war. Maybe we can get a surprise." After a pause, he continued, "Originally, I planned to let you stay and concentrate on practicing, and I would go alone. But after thinking about it carefully, if I go alone, it seems too insignificant, and I don’t have the momentum and persuasiveness. So, after thinking about it, I still take you with me. When there are more students, I can share your burden."

“Teacher, what are you talking about? A day or two won’t make a difference in cultivation. The development of our college is the top priority. After all, only when the college is doing well can we do well. Otherwise—” Zhao Hongshan didn’t say the rest of the words, but Yun Bai knew that he wanted to say otherwise, our college will not have next year.

"Brother is right. Revitalizing the college is everyone's responsibility. Don't forget, we are still the veterans! Haha, how can we be left out of such a big event as enrollment!" Yun Bai laughed, not wanting the atmosphere to become solemn again.

"Well, it would be best if we could recruit some capable fighters..." Xiaohua muttered softly. Several people heard it, but they all smiled and said nothing.

"Haha, okay! Let's hurry up and eat, then we'll set off!" Yuanye was very happy to get the support of the students, and immediately began to concentrate on eating.

The destination was far from the academy, but with the teleportation talisman and teleportation array, they were expected to arrive around noon. They planned to see the situation after arriving at the place, and then decide how many days to stay.

Yun Bai had never seen the outside world since she came to this world. So, she was quite looking forward to this trip. However, what she saw and heard along the way made her regret coming out. The mountain peaks that were cut in half, the land with huge cracks, the rivers that stopped flowing... the forests that were burned to charcoal, the damaged buildings and roads, the corpses of animals and even spirit beasts, the wasteland graves that were connected together, and the refugees who were pale and skinny and wandering on the streets. Among these refugees, there were even a few cultivators!

Yun Bai was born in a peaceful country where people lived and worked in peace. Although they did not leave their doors unlocked at night, they could walk freely at night. War was so far away from her that she never thought that one day, scenes that could only appear in movies would actually appear before her eyes. It was so tragic...

After just one look, she couldn't bear to look any further. At this moment, she couldn't help but think of those porcelain tableware and tea sets that cost tens of thousands of dollars, which the rich people bought without blinking an eye... She suddenly had a strong desire to get rich, not to experience the sense of superiority, but to give herself more sense of security, and to help people in need within her ability.

Zhao Hongshan saw that his junior sister was sad, so he used his majestic figure to protect her inside and directly blocked her sight. Along the way, they sent out a total of 300 low-grade spirit coins, helped to deal with two groups of bandits, rescued two groups of caravans, and also got to know the escorts of two escort agencies.

Coincidentally, the destination of one of the escort agencies and the caravan they protected was Huoshan Town, where Yun Bai and his team were going, so at the other party's strong request, they traveled together.
