"This is our Nangong Imperial Family's most precious treasure, it is specially used to defend against evil spirits. You do not need it to accompany you, but give it to Hundred Herb Hall Academy Long Bi instead."

Nan Gong Hong Yun lowered his head and thought for a moment. When he finally reacted, he immediately jumped up and down on the spot.

Nan Gong Hong Yun knew that she must have guessed right.

"It's time to return to the manor." Nan Gong Ling Yun replied faintly.

Then, without looking back, he whipped his horse and left in a cloud of dust.

That firm and straight back looked even more cold and resolute than before he met Su Xia Yue. It was as if he was isolated from heaven and earth, and no longer cared about him.

Elder Xuan stared at the Evil Repelling Compass for a while and sighed.

He turned around and looked for a group of thousand li horses, planning to make a trip to Hundred Herb Hall Academy.

Unexpectedly, Nan Gong Hong Yun came out of nowhere. Suddenly, he snatched the Evil Repelling Compass away and rode his thousand li horse and ran.

Xuan Yun He pursued while asking, "Fifth Princess! Fifth Princess, where are you going? "

"I will do this errand for you! Rest assured, I will not kill that Su Xia Yue. I am only curious about what kind of woman could cause my brother, who has been cold-blooded for his entire life, to suddenly fall for it! "

"Fifth Princess!"

Unable to catch up with the horse leg, Elder Xuan could only look for a mount. Nan Gong Hong Yun's words were like a whip, urging him to hurry up, so that he could move even faster. Don't let anything happen to the Fifth Princess, otherwise, it would be hard for him to explain himself.

On one side, they were riding their horses, while on the other side, they were dancing and singing.

Hundred Herb Hall Academy, at the foot of the Hundred Herb Mountain.

Su Xia Yue who had successfully advanced to the third stage, together with the people from the Fu Shou Tang, took advantage of the four hours break in the middle of the competition to sit at the foot of the Hundred Herb Mountain.

Xiao Sa's culinary skills were not bad as he personally roasted a lamb for everyone.

The way he waved his spice brush around was much more skillful than the way he placed the medicinal herbs. Everyone was dazzled by what they saw.

Amongst the new students, Chu Fu Yan had a feminine appearance and a slender body.

The others sometimes watched with relish, and sometimes laughed out loud as they watched.

In the initially harmonious atmosphere, Long Bi deeply furrowed his brows, staring at the Xi Che Ying beside him who had just recovered from his injuries and was drinking wine silently.

"First Miss, why did you bring her here? Isn't she from Ou Yang Yan Er's side? "

"In this world, there are no eternal friends, nor are there eternal enemies. Don't you think that the current her already doesn't want to see Ou Yang Yan Er and the rest as compared to us?"

"First Miss is wise! I understand, more friends, more roads, more enemies, more walls. "

Su Xia Yue smiled and did not continue to explain.

Many times, the relationships between these people were ever-changing and endless.

Who could say whether he was an enemy or a friend?

"Here, drink less if you're injured. Eat more meat!" Su Xia Yue handed over a piece of lamb leg that had just been roasted.

Xi Che Ying was startled for a moment, and then raised his head. A pair of eyes that were filled with complex emotions looked straight at Su Xia Yue.

In only an instant, the sound of ice turning into water came from Xi Che Ying's heart.

Suddenly, Xi Che Ying smiled.

She received the roasted lamb leg that Su Xia Yue handed to her. She didn't eat it and only stood up with it. He bowed towards Su Xia Yue in gratitude.

"You …" Su Xia Yue did not know why Xi Che Ying was acting this way.

"Before, I thought that you relied on your family's foundation and had nothing to show for it. Only now did I realize that you not only have true ability, but also a magnanimity that I couldn't hope to match! I surrender to you! "

With that, Xi Che Ying turned and left. Halfway there, he stopped and turned to remind Su Xia Yue sincerely.

"In the last test, aside from being careful of Ji Shu Xuan's Six Star Fire Talent, you have to be careful of Ou Yang Yan Er as well. A few days ago, she asked her family for two treasures, one of them was the top tier iron furnace that was ranked fifth on the Alchemy Furnace Board — — Blood Moon Spiritual Stove, and the spirit fire passed down by her Ouyang Family. The fifth ranked purple feathered spiritual fire, can even refine a spirit pellet with its eyes closed!"

"Purple Feathered spiritual fire?" Su Xia Yue repeated.

Before she could feel anything, the Old Ancestor in her spatial ring had already begun to scream.

"Little girl!" That Blood Moon Spiritual Stove is a whole level higher than our family's Fantasy furnace! That purple feathered spiritual fire is also a grade higher than the azure-yang fire in your hands. I'm afraid it will be difficult to win this time! "

Su Xia Yue heard and frowned.

However, refining pills wasn't a martial arts competition. It wasn't just based on one's weapon, cultivation, martial arts, or other factors that determined one's win or loss. When concocting pills, besides a furnace and a fire, one also needed to use herbs, pill formulas, psychokinesis, talent, and even a bit of luck to determine it.

She was going to risk it all, what did the heavens do to her!

Xi Che Ying then left, leaving Fu Shou Tang and the rest behind, all of their faces covered with black clouds.

This was the last trial, and only Su Xia Yue was left to level up. Everyone had been hoping that she would continue to win first place.

However, from the looks of it, it seemed that it was going to be in danger soon …

Xiao Sa was the most magnanimous, waving his sleeves around, he said to everyone: "Don't scare yourself, in a bit, we will begin the last round of the competition, let's return to the arena right now!"

The crowd dispersed, and the bonfire was extinguished.

The sun was setting over the western mountains, and the red afterglow sprinkled across the entire Hundred Herb Hall Academy's plaza. It lit up many excited faces.

In front of the elders, Haojiao looked around at Su Xia Yue, Ou Yang Yan Er, Ji Shu Xuan, Leng Ling Shan and He Zi Yi who had levelled up in the final stage of the Freshmen Competition, and nodded continuously.

"I didn't expect that in this year's Freshmen Competition, the four great halls would all have a promotion. Good, very good!"

The Haojiao spoke with a mysterious expression on his face, gently stroking his long beard.

"I wonder which stage the first position will fall to. After all, only one of these mysterious prizes has been prepared."

Haojiao's words were like a bomb that had exploded on the elder's seat, blowing up Qi Hongtian, Yue Hidden Mountain, Wan You Fang, and Xiao Sa until they couldn't sit still, praising themselves one after another.

"Looks like the Crimson Mind Pill this time belongs to our damaging-stopping hall."

"Who said that? The Ji Shu Xuan of our tonifying hall has not come out yet, it is still unknown who will win in the end! "
