Shocking! The female protagonist unlocked her powers by killing people!

The old man first cleaned Ling Yi's right palm. After wiping away the blood, a wound running across his palm appeared, causing the alchemist student who had accompanied the old man to treat the wound to gasp: "Any deeper and your palm will be severed. You were just holding the pill with your hand, doesn't it hurt?"

Ling said expressionlessly, "It hurts."

"But if I let him feed me the medicine, it will hurt even more."

"Why?" The student glanced at Lin Chengtian, puzzled. "Isn't he your older brother?"

Ling Yi glanced at Lin Chengtian with a half-smile upon hearing this, without explaining the reason.

Lin Chengtian knew that Ling Yi hated the Lin family. Compared to Ling Yi's attitude towards the Lin family, Ling Yi's attitude towards him was relatively good.

The old man looked at the wound on Ling Yi's palm and said while applying medicine, "This wound is very serious. It cannot get wet until it heals. Change the dressing every two days until it scabs over."

Lin Chengtian asked, "Will using the healing pill make the recovery faster?"

The old man nodded: "Yes, with the external application, it will be completely healed in half a month."

"I understand." After saying that, Lin Chengtian took out a bottle of pills. He wanted to feed the medicine, but remembering what Ling Yi had just said, Lin Chengtian turned his head and called Ye Qingshuang over.

As soon as Ye Qingshuang came over, she took the pill from Lin Chengtian's hand, poured it out, and held it to Ling Yi's lips: "I'll feed you, it won't hurt if you take it, right?"

Ling Yi didn't answer and swallowed the pill.

After the right hand was bandaged, the old man began to treat Ling Yi's left hand. Everyone thought the left hand was also injured, but when he rolled up his sleeve to reveal his arm, they realized it wasn't.

The old man wiped away the blood, but as soon as he finished, more blood oozed out.

"There's internal bleeding; this is caused by enduring far more force than he could withstand," the old man said while treating Ling Yi. "Only his hands are injured, so his condition is relatively good."

"A force far exceeding what one can withstand..." Ye Qingshuang looked at Ling Yi: "You caught that Xu guy's attack with your bare hands?"

Ling Yi's lips twitched. She wasn't stupid; how could she possibly catch it with her bare hands?

However, this explanation saved her from having to explain.

Seeing that Ling Yi did not deny it, Ye Qingshuang's face turned extremely ugly: "That Xu guy deserved to die, a teacher who launched a sneak attack."

"Qing Shuang," Teacher Mu said, "the person is already dead, don't say anything more."

Ye Qingshuang curled her lips: "I'm telling the truth, someone like him should have died long ago."

"You..." Teacher Mu sighed, and after the old man finished bandaging Ling Yi, she said, "Ling Yi is injured. You should take Ling Yi back to rest first. Someone will handle things here."

"Okay." Lin Chengtian and Ye Qingshuang nodded, then left with Ling Yi.

The three left under the gaze of many teachers and students. As soon as they left, someone went on stage and took away the bodies of Mu Zixuan and Teacher Xu.

"Old Mu, the academy's in trouble this time." The alchemist put away his items and patted Teacher Mu on the shoulder. "It looks like you'll be dragged into this too, sigh..."

"It's alright," Teacher Mu said. "Just handle it officially."

The reason he came to the academy as a teacher was that he didn't want to get entangled with those relatives. If the Prince Ming's Mansion really caused trouble, he wouldn't tolerate it.

...

The news that the heir of the Ming Prince's Mansion had lost a life-or-death battle to Ling Yi and was killed spread like wildfire.

Upon receiving the message from the academy, Prince Ming's mansion arrived at the academy with a group of spiritual masters, demanding entry under the pretext of needing to preserve the young master's body.

Everyone knows that concealing his physical body was a pretense; his true intention was to kill Ling Yi upon entering the school.

The academy did not agree, and Teacher Mu personally delivered Mu Zixuan's body to Prince Ming.

"Go back." Teacher Mu looked at Prince Ming: "The academy won't let you touch that child."

Prince Ming looked at Teacher Mu and said through gritted teeth, "You are also a member of the royal family. Why didn't you help stop others from killing Zixuan?"

Teacher Mu said expressionlessly, "That was a life-or-death battle. Does Prince Ming even know what a life-or-death battle is?"

"So what if it's a life-or-death battle?" Prince Ming said sternly, "The barrier for the life-or-death battle is formed by increasing the cultivation level of both parties by half. It can only trap the two parties involved, not people with high cultivation levels like you. You can completely interrupt the life-or-death battle and save Zixuan."

Teacher Mu's previously expressionless face revealed displeasure: "A life-or-death battle is something both sides agree to. Is it fair to interrupt the other person halfway through?"

"Instead of asking me why I don't teach Mu Zixuan to be more humble?"

"Your thinking is simply that Mu Zixuan's cultivation is good and he has the Ming Prince's Mansion behind him, so you believe no one would dare to do anything to him. You never expected to kick a hornet's nest. Now that he's dead, he knows how to blame others. What was he doing when he was alive?"

"You!" Prince Ming was furious. "I'm not going to talk to you about this. Let my men in!"

"What good would it do to let your people in?" Teacher Mu looked at Prince Ming with disappointment: "Your pampering is half the reason why Mu Zixuan is where he is today."

"You want to bring people to kill Ling Yi to avenge Mu Zixuan? Do you know that Mu Zixuan's teacher is also dead?" Teacher Mu looked at Prince Ming: "Mu Zixuan's teacher was an eighth-level spiritual master. He ambushed Ling Yi in full view of everyone and was killed by Ling Yi with a single strike. What is the highest cultivation level of the people you brought?"

Teacher Mu glanced at the people behind Prince Ming: "Most of them are at level five, with one or two at level six. This should be all the people in the Prince's mansion. The higher the difference in cultivation level, the greater the difference in strength. These people of yours are not enough for Ling Yi to kill."

"Ling Yi killed these people, what can the Prince's Mansion do?" Teacher Mu looked at Prince Ming: "Are you going to beg His Majesty?"

"That child can kill an eighth-level spirit master, so she will definitely be able to secure a spot in the grand competition a month from now. The academy will send her to participate in the imperial competition. Between personal vendetta and national honor, which do you think His Majesty will choose?"

Prince Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle, don't forget that His Majesty is my own elder brother."

“I know.” Teacher Mu’s tone was very calm: “The worst that could happen is that His Majesty chooses to help you, but we both know what the consequences would be.”

"Take him back," Teacher Mu said, then turned and went back to the academy.

Prince Ming watched Teacher Mu's departing figure, his anger surging, but the academy wouldn't let him in, and he couldn't possibly force his way in.

"Take the young master back to the manor first," Prince Ming said coldly. "Send a message to the Lin family, asking them to come to the manor. Tell them I have something to discuss with Prime Minister Lin."

The person beside him acknowledged the order: "Yes."

Prince Ming looked at the child being sent out, his eyes filled with sinister hatred. He didn't care about national honor; he would definitely find a way to kill Ling Yi and avenge his son!

...

Library.

Because of his injury, both the water and fire department teachers gave Ling Yi leave, and he didn't need to go to class until he recovered.

Ling Yi originally wanted to stay in the dormitory to recover from his injuries, but in the past two days, many students have been coming to the dormitory every afternoon, making a lot of noise, so Ling Yi has come to hide in the library.

The library does not allow noise, so hiding here is the best place to read books and learn about some common knowledge of the Tianhuan Continent.
