Another World: How to Practice Without Spiritual Energy

"Grandpa, why are you here?" Reese saw the old man's face clearly and happily pulled him into the room.

"Grandpa?" Chen Xian looked at the old man in confusion. He could not feel any energy fluctuations from the old man, but how could an ordinary old man float in the second-floor window?

"Yes, Grandpa, you have been in seclusion for more than a year. Reese misses you so much." Reese lay in the old man's arms and acted coquettishly.

The old man stroked Ruisi's head with a kind look on his face, while his eyes were fixed on Chen Xian.

Chen Xian was somewhat at a loss as he was stared at by the old man's deep eyes. He felt as if he was transparent in front of the old man.

"Did you kill the teacher at the academy?"

Hearing the old man's question, Chen Xian immediately jumped up and leaned against the wall of the room, looking at the old man with caution. Baozi and Mantou stood in front of Chen Xian and bared their teeth at the old man.

"Don't be nervous, little one. I have no ill will towards you. Your two magical beasts are quite interesting. One is actually a hellhound cub, and the other one is, eh, a black and white magic crystal. I have never seen such a magical beast before. Little one, I am becoming more and more interested in you."

The old man looked at the buns and steamed buns and said with a smile.

"What did you do to Reese?" Chen Xian saw Reese falling asleep in the old man's arms.

"She needs to rest, and you don't want your secret to be known to others!" The old man stroked Reese's hair kindly.

"Secret, what secret do I have?" Chen Xian was a little nervous, unable to see through the old man.

"Water of life." The old man just said lightly.

Chen Xian was helpless. Since the other party seemed to know everything and he couldn't see through it, and even ignored the hellhound, he would definitely not be able to beat him or escape. The old man was still talking to him calmly, which meant that he still had value for the other party, so he should just talk freely.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" Chen Xian sat back on the stool.

"Smart, give me two bags of Water of Life. Don't say you don't have any. I saw you stuff three or four bags into Lilith's box before, and then you gave her a space ring."

Seeing that Chen Xian was about to get away with it, the old man interrupted his chance.

"Old man, have you been following me since the camp? Watching me kill people?" Chen Xian said in astonishment.

"Be respectful to the elderly. Also, do you want to study at Nice School of Magic?" The old man did not deny Chen Xian's guess, and asked with interest.

"Are you okay, old man? I just killed their teacher." Chen Xian looked at the old man as if he were an idiot.

The old man said with a bright smile.

"As long as you want to go to college, I can make it happen for you."

"What guarantees can you make?" Chen Xian could see that the old man was very confident, but he still wanted to ask for clarification.

The old man threw a fish to Baozi, and then said calmly: "Because I am the dean of the Nice Magic and Martial Arts Academy."

Chen Xian had just taken a sip of wine, and before he swallowed it, it all sprayed out towards the old man opposite him. The wine was pulled by an invisible force, hovering in the air in front of the old man, and then returned to the glass in Chen Xian's hand.

Chen Xian put down his wine glass, stared at the old man and said, "Is this what you want me to do? Is there anything else?"

"I took part in the mainland college competition two years later and won first place." The old man said calmly.

Chen Xian didn't know how difficult this competition was, and he wanted to know what the worst outcome would be. "What if I don't get first place?"

"Then you'd better wish you the best. I will make sure that no one will touch you and your friends in the next two years. If you don't get first place, Max Chamber of Commerce and Ningguo Mansion will probably come after you." The old man smiled slyly.

"By the way, their trump card should include a Level 6 warrior."

Chen Xian was obviously being plotted against and threatened by the old man, but he couldn't fight against either of the old man or the two forces now. He himself was fine, but the fat man, Lilith and the village might be in danger.

Chen Xian thought for a long time, stared at the old man and said: "I agree to your request, but I need some privileges in the academy."

"You say," the old man said as if he was very easy to talk to.

"First of all, the college library must be open to me unconditionally." Chen Xian raised a finger.

"No problem, I'll arrange it." The old man agreed readily.

“Secondly, I can audit all teachers’ classes, and the academy is not allowed to interfere with my studies,” the old man nodded in agreement.

"The last thing is that I need a separate courtyard where no one can disturb me." Chen Xian said everything he wanted.

"All of this can be promised to you. Now you must return to school within a week. This is the dean's token, take it. A bath with this bottle of potion can restore the color of your skin."

The old man threw a token and potion to Chen Xian, then took two bags of water of life and disappeared with Ruisi. Another voice came from the void, "You still need at least five partners under the age of 18 with great potential. There will be a team competition in the competition."

"Damn, this old guy is such a jerk. I thought I could just rely on myself to defeat everyone. He doesn't want me to help him train students. He must be targeting the Water of Life." Chen Xian thought to himself.

But he had to go to the academy anyway, whether it was to study cultivation or to treat the fat man. After thinking it over, Chen Xian went to the hotel and asked for a room. He poured the old man's potion into the bathroom, entered the turtle breathing state, and buried his whole body in the bathtub.

In the water, Chen Xian felt his skin was a little numb and itchy, which lasted for about half an hour before it disappeared. He stood up and came to the mirror. His dark complexion had faded away, and now his skin was white and flawless. Chen Xian admired his more handsome face after it became white, and secretly said in his heart, "This old man's potion is not bad. If it is developed into a product, women all over the world will be crazy about it. I have to find an opportunity to study the skin care industry with the old man.

There are many caravans in the town that are collecting goods and materials in the Warcraft Forest and transporting them to the main city of Nice. Due to the severe reduction in the escort personnel of many caravans during this beast tide, a market for recruiting guards has appeared at the entrance of the town in the past few days.

Chen Xian himself didn't know the way. Although he had a map, the basic information was incomplete. To avoid trouble, he decided to find a caravan to follow them to the main city of Nice. He came to the gate of the town and prepared to choose one to join.

"Qingmang Caravan, needs 3 level 3 guards, 20 gold coins."

"Zhongteng Caravan needs a level 3 guard, 1 gold coins."

……

Many caravans have posted recruitment information. Due to the high demand, the price of escorts has also risen sharply, and is now ten times more than before.

"Miss, others have already raised the price to 20 gold coins. We can't hire guards with 2 gold coins. Why don't we sell the crystals and then find guards?" An old butler said to a woman in her 20s.

"Uncle Zhong, we suffered heavy losses this time. You also know the current situation of the store. We were counting on this batch of crystals to support the store. Selling them now would only be a low sale. If there is no profit this time, the store will not be able to continue." The girl frowned.

If her father had not been seriously ill, the burden of the family business would not have fallen on a girl who was still in school. This time they received several level 3 crystals and one level 4 crystal, but almost all the armed personnel were wiped out. An injured warrior lost his life after returning the crystal due to his serious injuries. Now the team is just a few ordinary horsemen. The journey to the main city is long. If there is a monster or a bandit, they will all give it up. The capital they brought is not much, and there are also expenses on the road. Now they can only recruit at the original price.

"Excuse me, are you recruiting guards to go to Nice City?" Chen Xian asked, staring at the beautiful woman with a frown on her face.
