"Then I won't disturb you anymore," Zhao Waner did not stay any longer, picked up the purple Spirit Sword and left the courtyard.

Liu Jingjing stared at Zhao Waner's back with some anger: "How is she here to spar with me? She's obviously trying to test your strength."

Di Chen nodded: "I know, she had suppressed her cultivation just now to fight with me, this Zhao Waner definitely isn't Lifestealer Realm."

Zhao Waner's first sword strike was very normal, but the might of the second sword strike was obviously not an ordinary Lifestealer Realm. If Di Chen had not used the Spear Arts in time, he might have been killed by Zhao Waner.

Di Chen did not know why Zhao Waner was here to probe her cultivation level, but he did not care, since she would not stay in the Zhao manor for long, nor would she have any connections with Zhao Waner in the future.

After Zhao Waner left, she went to see Zhao Fusheng and explained the fight: "This Di Chen should be at the ninth stage of Life Seizing Supreme Realm, but he is very strong, and has held back his strength a moment ago, I'm afraid that there are not many in the Lifestealer Realm who are his match, I think in the entire Famous Sword Academy, only Guan Yun and Kun Xian can compare to him."

Zhao Waner herself was a very talented person, her judgement was very high, even she was praising Di Chen to the extent of showing how strong he was.

Zhao Fusheng was not surprised at all, there were only a handful of Martial Region Continent who could kill a Martial King with their Lifestealer Realm, and he laughed: "It's rather difficult to cultivate as a scholar, but once you succeed in your cultivation, you will be many times stronger than those of the same realm, so it's normal for Di Chen to have this kind of strength …"

Saying this, he felt a little regretful again: "It's a pity that he doesn't want to join our Famous Sword Academy."

Zhao Fusheng believed that in a few years time, Di Chen would definitely shine in this academy. Although Di Chen was not from Famous Sword Academy, he still wanted to see what kind of person Di Chen would grow into in the future. After all, the Martial Region Continent Scholar was truly too hard to find.

In the next few days, Di Chen stayed at the Zhao manor, reading and writing books every day, and the power of the scholar had increased, but to break through to the 9th level of the Scholar Realm, he needed more time. In a few days, the martial kings outside the Zhao manor would all leave, and Di Chen prepared to return to the academy.

Outside the Zhao Palace, Zhao Fusheng and Zhao Waner saw Di Chen off.

"Sorry for disturbing Old Master Zhao during this period of time."

Di Chen is not related to him in any way, it would be hard to find a place for him to stay. He then looked at Zhao Waner and said: Thank you, Miss Wan'er, for taking care of me during this period.

During this period of time, Zhao Waner had indeed taken care of Di Chen, and had often come to Di Chen's room to talk with him. She had even wanted to pull him over to exchange pointers with him, but was rejected by Di Chen.

Zhao Waner chuckled: "The Zhao Palace will welcome you anytime. If you want to exchange pointers, you can come find me."

"Alright," Di Chen nodded his head, thinking that in the future we might not even have the chance to meet again, he bowed to Zhao Fusheng and turned to leave.

"Di Chen." Not long after he left, Zhao Fusheng's voice sounded from behind him.

Di Chen turned his head and looked at Zhao Fusheng curiously. Zhao Fusheng laughed: "If you change your mind, you can come find me anytime."

"Alright," Di Chen thought that he would never have the chance to join the Famous Sword Academy again in his life. In truth, if it was not for Shang Qing's request, he would never have taken the Sky Realm Academy examination.

A man of letters should not be bound in one place.

Zhao Fusheng watched Di Chen's back quietly and could not help but sigh. He knew that Di Chen would not join the Famous Sword Academy and felt some regret.

"Seems like this Zhao Fusheng cares a lot about your identity as a scholar."

When Liu Jingjing thought about how she had repeatedly proposed to let Di Chen join the Famous Sword Academy during this period of time, she smiled and said, "Perhaps he hoped that you would represent the Famous Sword Academy and participate in the competition among the three great academies in the future."

How could Di Chen not know Zhao Fusheng's goal? He casually said: "Even if I join the Famous Sword Academy, I wouldn't participate in the competition between the three great academies. I don't have that time."

Liu Jingjing laughed: "I know, you still have to write books, of course I don't have time."

Di Chen was a scholar, so scholars should be able to gain power from the words and comprehend their own way. Then, they should be able to use the language and let the later generations learn from it.

After returning to the academy, Di Chen went to the medicinal garden, while Liu Jingjing went to her residence. As for the money Liu Jingjing had left for her, he would sell everything to Liu Jingjing later.

"Di Chen," Qin Suer came over excitedly when she saw that Di Chen had returned, and laughed: "Why have you been gone for so long?"

Di Chen stayed in the Thousand Monster Mountain for three days and stayed in the Zhao Palace for another three days. Counting the time, it was indeed a little long, so he told his everything that had happened in the Thousand Monster Mountain simply.

"Oh right," Qin Suer suddenly smiled mysteriously. "A lot of people in the academy have been scolding you recently, and they are all at the first or second stage of the Martial King realm.

Di Chen secretly thought that he must have fixed them up so that he could attempt to hand over the mission. He laughed: "It's nothing, I just handed in the mission first and they won't accept it."

Qin Suer said with a smile that was not a smile: "But these people seem to be quite angry. It must be you doing something shady again."

It was rare for a group of Martial Kings to curse in public, but after getting this angry, they finally thought of how despicable the things Di Chen did were.

"Oh right," Di Chen didn't talk about the Thousand Monster Mountain and took out some other Spirit Grass flowers: "I brought these back from the Thousand Monster Mountain. Take a look and see if there's anything useful."

Qin Suer picked up the Spirit Grass and looked, and immediately had a face full of surprise and joy: "The Vermillion Bird Fruit, Divine Ning Ye, Meng Lu Hua, Di Chen, these are all rare Spirit Grass s that have been injected with medicine, they are very hard to find, where did you find them?"

Di Chen pointed to his bosom, Qin Suer curiously looked at Di Chen's chest, then a round head came out, it was small fruit.

Qin Suer's finger curiously poked at small fruit's head. "What is this, it's so cute."

small fruit didn't like people poking its head, so he angrily slapped Qin Suer's hands, and whined a few times as a form of resistance.

Di Chen pulled at the small fruit's fur and pulled it out, laughing: "It's called small fruit, I picked it up from Thousand Monster Mountain. Even though it's not strong, it's very intelligent, and those Spirit Grass were found by it."

Being lifted like this by Di Chen made small fruit feel uncomfortable, he used all his strength to scratch at Di Chen, but he could not reach Di Chen so he kept scratching, and stared angrily at Di Chen.

Qin Suer was amused by small fruit's look and giggled, but small fruit did not seem to like him either. It was as if she did not want to see small fruit and went back into Di Chen's arms.

Di Chen did not chat much with him, he went back to the side room and took out all the things that he had bought. He simply calculated that if he were to take all the Spirit Grass and demon corpses to the academy, he would be able to get at least 800 points, and with the money he had earned this time, he would be able to get another 400 points. could get 600 points with half of his points, and with that, Di Chen had saved 300 points.

After taking everything into consideration, Di Chen started to cultivate again. He needed to level up his Scholar's Realm to the ninth stage before the ranking battles, in order to obtain the first place of the Destiny Decree.

"Di Chen, get out here right now!" An hour later, an angry voice came from outside.

When Di Chen walked out, he immediately saw Cao Yuer. Her tears were rolling down, and it seemed that she had just been crying. Di Chen asked: "Yu'er, what's wrong?"

Cao Yuer did not answer, but suddenly rushed at Di Chen, his fist fiercely smashing onto Di Chen's chest.

This punch was too sudden. Di Chen did not even have time to react before he was sent flying, his bones already broken.

"Yu'er," Di Chen did not expect Cao Yuer to do something so heavy. She hurriedly got up, covered her chest and asked in a daze: "What are you doing?"

If it was an ordinary person, he would have already made his move, and only Cao Yuer would not have acted rashly.

Cao Yuer cried: "Why didn't you save my sister?"

When Di Chen heard this, his expression changed slightly as he asked, "Could it be that your sister has already …"

Cao Yuer clenched her fists and said: "My sister was killed by a black ringed snake king while harvesting Vermillion Bird Fruit. Fang Xin said that you clearly saw him but did not save her. Is that true?"

Before Di Chen left, he had indeed seen Cao Rouer fighting with the black ringed snake, but he couldn't save Cao Rouer, nor did he have the time to save her, he had only reminded her not to fight against the black ringed snake King head on. Di Chen did not expect that she would not listen to his advice, and in the end, still die in the black ringed snake's mouth.

Cao Yuer said in a tearful voice: "If you don't speak, then I admit it, Di Chen, although my sister isn't close with you, but we have experienced life and death together in the Thousand Monster Mountain, you can risk your life to save Liu Jingjing and Qin Suer, why can't you save my sister?"

Di Chen was silent for a moment before saying: "I advised your sister, but even if she doesn't listen to me, since you know that the black ringed snake King is a Demonic King, how can I possibly save her?"

Cao Yuer scolded: "I understand your personality. If you wanted to save me, no matter how dangerous it is, you would have intervened. But on that day, you had no intentions of doing so."

Di Chen was speechless. Cao Yuer was right, she could have saved Liu Jingjing from the hands of the two Martial Kings previously, but she did not, because he had never thought of saving her.

Actually, this was also because Cao Rouer had always been on Fang Xin's side earlier. Di Chen was truly a little angry at what she had said, in addition to the fact that Cao Rouer was stubborn in her ways and wanted to snatch back the Vermillion Bird Fruit.

It was just that Di Chen never thought that Cao Rouer would die there, but the current Di Chen did not know the reason why Cao Rouer died.
