Another World: How to Practice Without Spiritual Energy

"Damn, that old man at the entrance of the village." Chen Xian and the fat man said in unison.

Seeing that Chen Xian and the fat man recognized him at a glance, the old man's wrinkled face turned red.

"I didn't expect that you two would still be obsessed with me. My showing you the way is just a small matter, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."

The girl named Qiqi looked at her grandfather and asked in confusion: "Did you lie to me at the entrance of the village... Woohoo, Grandpa, why did you stuff barbecue into my mouth?"

"Don't talk while eating, don't talk while sleeping, and be polite when visiting others, do you understand?" the old man taught the girl a lesson in a serious tone.

But Chen Xian and the fat man looked at the old man with increasingly unfriendly eyes.

"Being favored by the Red Robe Master, haha"

"It's windy!"

"Riding the Big Red Horse"

……

As the fat man and Chen Xian were talking, they took the barbecue, bones, fruits and wine bottles around them and threw them at the old man.

Although the old man had a wrinkled face and a gray beard, he was very agile. He took the barbecue and fruits in his hands and ate them while dodging bones and wine bottles.

"Young people are impulsive and they are the devil. Stay calm. You have entered the academy now. This is your chance."

"You know, we were tricked by you into running for a whole day and night to catch up with Teacher Liu Yan." The fat man said angrily.

"Damn it, we were led to mistakenly believe that Lilith was kidnapped by a bad guy and Mantou bit him." Chen Xian said angrily.

When Mantou heard Chen Xian's order, it bared its teeth and ran towards the old man, who was chased all over the yard by it.

The girl did not go to help, but sat there eating barbecue, and shouted to the old man: "Grandpa, if you are bitten to death by a dog, remember to leave the staff to me."

The old man was speechless, and everyone was also speechless when they heard the girl's words.

After a while, Chen Xian called back Mantou. The old man, with disheveled hair and tattered clothes, walked to the fire, panting, and sat down beside it.

"The world is going downhill. Young people now treat lonely elderly people like this," the old man sighed.

"Okay, our accounts are settled. You old liar, are you also an elder of the academy?" Chen Xian handed the old man a bottle of wine and barbecue.

The old man glanced at Chen Xian, but still took the barbecue and wine and started eating.

"Well, it tastes really good. For the sake of the barbecue and wine, I will forgive you. But I am the vice president of the college, so you should still call me teacher."

"Okay, Mr. Liar."

"is teacher."

"Okay, old trickster."

……

The old man had no choice but to let Chen Xian and the others scream. He kept his gaze on Lan'er, looking her up and down.

"You liar teacher, that's my maid. It's not good for you to stare at her with such lustful eyes." Chen Xian stared at the old man.

"Pfft, what do you mean by lecherous? The old man was just admiring. Elemental spirits are very rare on the continent. I didn't expect you to have one, and it's such a pure water elemental spirit."

The old man was so shocked by Chen Xian's words that he spat out the wine and meat in his mouth and said dissatisfiedly.

"Oh? The liar teacher knows about the elves?" Chen Xian asked.

"Of course. When I was young, I traveled around the continent and visited the elves' settlement."

Chen Xian and the others listened to the old man curiously, but the old man put his hands together, indicating that his barbecue was almost gone.

Chen Xian rolled his eyes, asked Lan'er to roast another monster for the old man, and personally poured a glass of wine and lowered it over.

The old man nodded and continued cheerfully, "Legend has it that elves are formed by the condensation of natural elements. Currently known elemental elves include water elves, earth elves, and wood elves. Water elves and wood elves are similar in size to humans, but they are all beautiful women. Earth elves live underground, are short and ugly, and like to collect ores."

"Where do the water elves live?" asked the fat man.

"Water elves usually live in swamps, but no matter what kind of elves they are, they rely on moon wells for survival. The water in the wells is their food and medicine for healing, and it also helps them advance. Water elves are natural water magicians, with a high affinity for water energy. Water magic is unfathomable, and the lifespan of elves is dozens of times that of humans, so as long as they are adult water elves are basically legendary magicians or holy magicians."

"She's so powerful. Isn't Sister Lan'er a future legendary magician or even a holy magician?" Good said with admiration as he looked at Lan'er who was concentrating on grilling meat.

The old man took a sip of wine, shook his head with some regret and said: "The compulsory contract can make the elves obey humans, but it also limits the elves' level to not exceed that of humans by one level. Moreover, the speed of advancement is very slow for humans, often taking hundreds of years. So you probably won't be able to wait until she becomes a legendary wizard."

The girl said with some regret: "That means your life is limited to the time when the contract is signed."

The old man nodded in agreement, and Chen Xian thought of a question. "Is there any way for me to give up the contract on my own initiative?"

The old man's eyes gleamed, and he looked at Chen Xian with a smile and said, "Are you willing to give up the contract with this water spirit that every man dreams of?"

Chen Xian nodded naturally.

"Brother, you are great. Qiqi likes it too." The girl praised sincerely.

The old man and Chen Xian glared at the girl at the same time. The old man took a sip of wine and continued to shake his head: "Even if you have this idea, you can't meet the conditions."

The old man wanted to keep the secret, but everyone glared at him, so he had to continue.

"There are two ways to cancel a contract. One is when the owner of the contract dies, and the other is when the owner of the contract reaches the Saint level and cancels the contract on his own initiative. Of course, the contractee can also cancel the contract on his own if he reaches the Saint level."

"Aren't the people under the contract restricted?" asked the fat man.

"So, this one is impossible too." The old man smacked his lips.

"No, is there one that can be achieved?" Chen Xian said thoughtfully.

"Which one?" everyone asked together.

"Isn't it enough for me to reach the Saint level?" Chen Xian shrugged and said indifferently.

"Boss, that's the holy level!"

"Boss, this might be a bit difficult."

"You little brat, you can't drink much. You're already talking drunkenly after just a few sips."

"Brother, the Saint level is very difficult. My grandfather still can't reach it. Grandpa, when you die, please leave the staff to me."

"Okay, I'll die in front of you tomorrow."
