Wang Xingyu was proven by the No-Form puppet simulation to be a novice who was unsuitable for Cultivating Participating Together.

However, he was a man of strong resolve and relying not only on his talents managed to enter the preliminary stage of Cultivating Participating Together, but also following Zhongli Tianyu’s example, transformed a Rank-3 magic artifact handed down in his family into his own object of participation.

The artifact was a copper bowl, capable of containing all the waters of the world.

Furthermore, it could be used as a medicine pool to refine Qi-replenishing Spirit Water, which was doubly efficient.

But according to the result of the No-Form puppet simulation, the best object of participation for Wang Xingyu should be the Flying Sword Tool. However, this was his own choice, as a Rank-3 magic artifact was more tantalizing compared to a Rank-2 flying sword which he could have obtained.

Chen Mobai who had just secured a million Good Deed Points from Shen Juanxiu, had plenty of funds on hand so he approached Wang Xingyu and reserved a hundred bottles of high-grade Rank-1 Qi-replenishing Spirit Water.

If it weren’t for the product’s expiration date, he would have been tempted to purchase an entire year’s supply.

“Chen, don’t embarrass yourself in the makeup exam.”

Upon parting, Ming Yuhua teased Chen Mobai.

Of the entire Metaphysical Class, only Chen Mobai failed one subject, making him the butt of the joke for the entire vacation.

“I was careless last year and did not revise, but this year, I devoted myself to studying the textbooks on talismans at home. I can assure you there will be no problems.”

Chen Mobai was brimming with confidence as he spoke.

“Hahaha, that’s good, but if you still fail the makeup exam, you’ll probably be the laughing stock of the seniors for a whole year.”

Ming Yuhua laughed heartily as he patted Chen Mobai on the shoulder, after which they all parted at the school gate.

Like Chen Mobai, two others had rented separate cave dwellings outside the school.

After returning to the little wooden hut he had been away from for a long time, Chen Mobai made a trip to the Tianhe Realm.

After checking on the grain he had dried, and verifying that it hadn’t been poached by birds and insects, he returned, well satisfied.

In two more days when the drying was just right, he could remove the husk.

He had already bought the tool needed for husk removal, a versatile version valued at 2000 Good Deed Points.

The Daoist Academy had this tool too and with his standing with Lin Wenkang, borrowing it would have been easy.

However, he considered that he might establish his future in the Tianhe Realm and decided it would be better to own one.

Apart from the husk removal tool, he had also bought various tools for brewing wine.

After placing an order for the necessary items, Chen Mobai began to focus on his studies.

In university, those who fail a subject have one chance to retake the exam at the beginning of the next semester. Having failed the Talisman course, Chen Mobai had become a laughing stock and his title of “The Sleeper” was barely holding up.

He had planned to diligently revise the Talisman course during the vacation, even without the Soul Awakening Dao Pill.

Now, though he had thoroughly understood all textbook knowledge from the first and second grades, and had learnt parts of the third grade’s content, he feared the examiner might set a tricky question on a talisman that was not in the textbooks.

As he was revising, he experienced how much his classmates cared about him.

Zhuang Jialan and Si Guanyu, both Talisman course toppers, after learning that he had returned, actually took the initiative to bring him their notes and even offered him tutoring.

This moved Chen Mobai and he opened another jar of wine he had brought from Green Mountain Village and had a good drink with them.

“Class Leader Si, Member Zhuang, don’t worry, I will definitely pass the makeup exam.”

“I had a deep realisation during the vacation that I took the Talisman classes too lightly. This year, I will definitely buckle down and work hard. I won’t be dragging the class behind anymore.”

Hearing the sincere words from Chen Mobai, Zhuang Jialan and Si Guanyu remained skeptical.

It’s because they had also begun to question Chen Mobai’s actual abilities.

“Alright, if you have this motivation then we have nothing to worry about. There are still five others who failed, we also need to check on them.”

After emptying their bottles, Si Guanyu did not forget his duties as the class leader.

The questions from last year were quite difficult. Apart from three who had pulled strings and failed, including Chen Mobai, two others also faced the same predicament and had to retake the tests.

Since a lot of people in their class had failed, Chen Mobai’s failure wasn’t as conspicuous. Otherwise, his reputation as “The Sleeper” would have been exposed long ago.

The failing students were all from their class, so Si Guanyu and Zhuang Jialan said they would show concern to all who needed it, before they took their leave.

As Chen Mobai returned to the Daoist Academy in advance, with half a month left until the makeup exam, when studying, he first dehusked the Spirit Rice crop he had planted on the Giant Tree Ridge and brewed wine from it.

In the meantime, under the leadership of Lu Jun from the Spirit Plant Department, he took charge of the Spirit Vein at Small Yang Ridge.

Last year, the fellow disciple who had cultivated the medicine field here, after Lu Jing had settled the contribution points for the two acres of Dew Grass, took a hint from Lu Jing’s implied dissatisfaction with the lack of yield and tactfully packed his tools and left.

“Junior Brother Chen, the surroundings within twenty miles is now your territory.”

Lu Jun, who had played the bad guy, cheerfully handed over the former cultivator’s Mountain Formation to Chen Mobai on the spot.

This was a Rank-2 Formation. In combination with the Spirit Vein of the Small Yang Ridge, it could hold back attacks from a Foundation Establishment cultivator for a while.

“Thank you Elder Brother Lu. This jar of spirit wine is brewed by me before I joined the sect. You can take it back and give it a try.”

The wine that Chen Mobai gave as a gift was naturally from Green Mountain Village.

All the wine his grandfather brewed, as long as it was for sale, bore the signature of its maker. He cleared it completely, benefiting from having two storage bags.

After buying his family’s wine, he also picked some good ones from other families in the village and bought them. A hundred jars in total, they filled the storage bag.

The wine given to Lu Jun was naturally one of the good ones.

Like the one he had drunk with Ming Yuhua a few days ago, it was a two-year-old yellow wine.

This was the best Chen Mobai could buy. The others with more years of age, the villagers kept for themselves or for when guests came to visit.

The ones they sold were newly brewed in the most recent two years.

“Alright, thank you, Junior Brother Chen.”

Lu Jun thought Chen Mobai was just being polite and cheerfully left with the jar of wine.

After two days, Qi Rui and Xi Jinghuo, who had received a message, also came to Small Yang Ridge.

Upon meeting, Chen Mobai was naturally generous.

He directly opened five jars of good wine and enjoyed themselves to the fullest.

“Good wine, Junior Brother Chen is really generous.”

Qi Rui was a wine lover. As soon as the jar was opened, he knew from the aroma that this wine was special. It was not at all in the same league as what he usually drank.

“You’re about to participate in the sect’s grand competition. This meal is to wish you success. I hope you can make it into the top 24 and be promoted to the true teachings.”

There’s a grand competition in the Divine Wood Sect every year, and all Qi Cultivation disciples below sixty years of age can participate.

Qi Rui was already at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, and as part of the Talisman Production Department’s structure, naturally he wouldn’t give up the chance to become a student of the true teachings in view of the batch of Foundation building pills ten years later.

Xi Jinghuo also signed up to participate for self-improvement.

Only Chen Mobai felt that his level was not enough and didn’t want to waste talismans and time, and directly chose to give up..
