Yu Ruo, who had been mostly silent, actually nodded to Mo Wuji when she saw him. Mo Wuji's heart sank, however, as he had a faint feeling that something was wrong. He saw a hint of apology in Yu Ruo's eyes, the same apology he had seen earlier in Chi Kun's eyes.

At first, he thought Chi Kun felt guilty for not finding him a good shop and for getting him entangled with the Ao Clan. But now it seemed that the guilt of Chi Kun and Yu Ruo had nothing to do with his shop.

"Divine King Xian Min, did you come all the way here just to say that?" The Guang Mi Divine King of the Ao Clan said calmly. In terms of cultivation, he was about the same as the Xian Min Divine King, both at the fourth layer of the Divine King Realm.

However, the Ao Clan was somewhat weaker than the Lingxiao Divine Sect, and there were also countless connections between the Lingxiao Divine Sect and the Ao Clan. Many people from the Ao Clan held important positions in the Lingxiao Divine Sect, making them a force to be reckoned with within the sect.

Chi Kun winked at Mo Wuji, and Mo Wuji immediately stepped forward, greeted the Xian Min Divine King, and explained the whole story.

After listening to Mo Wuji's explanation without any expression, the Guang Mi Divine King said lightly, "Bring out the contract."

How could a powerhouse like him not know what Xin the Old was thinking? Xin the Old wanted to leave, but he couldn't find an excuse, so he could only drag someone to take the fall.

The reason why the Ao Clan allowed Xin the Old to leave was because they knew that Xin the Old could no longer produce any Life Force Soup. That's why they gave Xin the Old, a Divine King, some face and let him go. It was also a way for the Ao Clan to save face, allowing Xin the Old to leave.

If Xin the Old still had the divine spiritual herbs to refine Life Force Soup, even if Xin the Old played tricks, the Ao Clan wouldn't let him go so easily.

Mo Wuji took out the contract jade slip, but he didn't hand it over to Guang Mi, but to Chi Kun. Chi Kun handed it over to the Xian Min Divine King.

A hint of mockery appeared in Guang Mi's eyes. If Xin the Old couldn't even prepare the contract properly before leaving, then that old thing had lived his life in vain.

After reading the contract jade slip several times, the Xian Min Divine King said lightly, "Mo Wuji has no responsibility. He doesn't need to give the Ao Clan a bowl of Life Force Soup every month."

"Impossible." Guang Mi's expression changed, and he said immediately.

Without hesitation, the Xian Min Divine King threw the contract jade slip to the Guang Mi Divine King, "Take a look yourself. I believe I'm not yet senile."

Guang Mi Divine King's divine sense fell on the jade slip, and his expression immediately turned gloomy. The jade slip really didn't have any tricks. There was no mention of delivering Life Force Soup to the Ao Clan. The only thing that mentioned the Ao Clan was that the shop belonged to the Ao Clan, nothing more.

"Very good, Xin Bosheng. My Ao Clan will crush you into ashes!" With a wave of his hand, the contract jade slip turned into dust.

The Xian Min Divine King said coldly, "Guang Mi, what do you mean by this?"

The Guang Mi Divine King said calmly, "My Ao Clan wouldn't go back on our word for a mere shop. From today on, the right to operate this shop for one year belongs to Mo Wuji. He doesn't need to pay anything to my Ao Clan."

After saying this, he stared at Mo Wuji with a cold gaze, "One year later, get as far away from me as possible."

Mo Wuji had a very bad impression of the Ao Clan. If he had enough strength now, he would have slapped this bastard away.

That Divine King called Xin Bosheng was scammed by the Ao Clan, not knowing how much free Life Force Soup he had sent out. Now that he was gone, the Ao Clan still wanted to crush him into ashes. This Ao Clan was extremely insidious.

Although this old man had scammed him, he still felt uncomfortable, but the Ao Clan was even more trash.

To Mo Wuji's disappointment, because the Lingxiao Divine Sect had a Divine King come, the Ao Clan directly agreed that he could occupy the shop for a year and didn't arrest the white-bearded old man for confrontation. Without the white-bearded old man, his divine spiritual herbs were gone.

Indeed, man proposes, God disposes. His previous plans had all worked out, but he didn't get the divine spiritual herbs in the last step.

The Guang Mi Divine King and the Ao Clan's manager left, and the Xian Min Divine King also nodded to Mo Wuji, taking Yu Ruo away quickly. He came here, not mainly for Chi Kun's flying sword information, but because Yu Ruo asked him to come.

After everyone left, Chi Kun clasped his fists at Mo Wuji and said, "Dan Master Mo, I'm here this time to apologize to you."

Although Mo Wuji had guessed a little, he still said, "Brother Chi, you helped me a lot just now. I should be thanking you."

Chi Kun shook his head and explained the changes in the Sect Competition and the Nirvana Learning Academy's assessment rules, then waited quietly for Mo Wuji's reply. If Mo Wuji was unwilling to teach the disciples participating in the assessment of the Lingxiao Divine Sect how to grow Azure Dew Rice, then he could only let Mo Wuji leave secretly.

Although he and Mo Wuji had a good relationship, the Lingxiao Divine Sect would never let Mo Wuji have the final say.

Mo Wuji fell silent. Teaching how to grow Azure Dew Rice was nothing to him, but how could he teach it? He had no way to teach others how to grow high-grade Azure Dew Rice. Even if he taught the disciples of the Lingxiao Divine Sect to graft with five-leaf grass, what about after the grafting?

The Azure Dew Rice seedlings grafted with five-leaf grass needed to be transplanted. The method of transplanting was based on what the Five Elements were lacking, and only he could see what each Azure Dew Rice plant was lacking. Because he didn't have spiritual roots, he could easily sense what each rice seedling lacked in the Five Elements. How could he teach this method to others?

"Dan Master Mo, if it's really difficult..."

Mo Wuji interrupted Chi Kun, "Brother Chi, you've helped me a lot. I'm willing to teach the planting of Azure Dew Rice."

"Thank you, Dan Master Mo." Chi Kun excitedly clasped his fists at Mo Wuji, "Dan Master Mo, if you need anything, I'll try my best to apply to the sect for you."

Mo Wuji's heart moved, and he quickly said, "I lack some Level 5 divine spiritual herbs. Help me apply to the sect for some. No matter how much, it's very important to me."

Level 5 divine spiritual herbs were also extremely important things in the Lingxiao Divine Sect. Even if the Level 5 divine spiritual herbs that Mo Wuji needed weren't precious, it wouldn't be easy for the Lingxiao Divine Sect.

Despite this, Chi Kun still said, "Dan Master Mo, don't worry, I will definitely try my best to apply for some Level 5 divine spiritual herbs. It's just that they are all some marginal Level 5 divine spiritual herbs, and their value shouldn't be too high."

Mo Wuji was using Level 5 divine spiritual herbs to learn how to refine Level 5 divine pills. He didn't care about the value at all. Hearing this, he quickly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Brother Chi. If there are any Over-Vein Roots, Wave Flame Bamboo, or True Sprouts..."

Before Mo Wuji could finish speaking, the youth who had brought his sister to see a doctor hurriedly said, "Senior Physician, I have already prepared these divine spiritual herbs. I just can't find anyone to refine the pills. I also have many other Level 5 divine spiritual herbs."

Mo Wuji was overjoyed. He immediately understood that this youth's cultivation was average, but his sister was not simple. She was a World God Peak powerhouse, and it was nothing for such a powerhouse to collect some Level 5 divine spiritual herbs.

"Dan Master Mo, is there anything else? If not, come to my Lingxiao Divine Sect to teach in three days. Someone will come to pick you up. How about that?" Chi Kun didn't sense too much complaint from Mo Wuji and felt relieved.

Azure Dew Rice was different from other things. Even if you teach it, you can't tell the true essence with a complaining mood.

Mo Wuji asked somewhat unwillingly, "Brother Chi, is the only way to enter the Nirvana Learning Academy by representing the sect to participate in the assessment? Is there any other way?"

Chi Kun had already told him before that the Lingxiao Divine Sect only had ten places to participate in the assessment this time, and these ten places were all true disciples of the Lingxiao Divine Sect. Even if he, Mo Wuji, planted Azure Dew Rice very well, he couldn't represent the Lingxiao Divine Sect.

Chi Kun sighed inwardly. He knew that Mo Wuji was very interested in the mortal land of the Nirvana Learning Academy because he had listened to his words. Unfortunately, he really couldn't help Mo Wuji.

Now that Mo Wuji asked, he still explained, "Actually, there are two other ways. One is a long-term way. First, join the outer sect handyman of the Nirvana Learning Academy. Then, through the accumulation of sect contributions, gradually become a disciple of the Nirvana Learning Academy. Dan Master Mo, you are proficient in the Pill Dao and are also very good at planting Azure Dew Rice, I believe that in about a thousand years, you can accumulate enough sect contributions and become a true disciple of the Nirvana Learning Academy."

"What about the second way?" This method was immediately rejected by Mo Wuji. A thousand years... forget it.

"The second way is to find a way to participate in the assessment of the Nirvana Learning Academy this time. Although you can't represent the sect, you can represent rogue cultivators to participate in the assessment." Although Chi Kun was talking about the second way, he himself knew that this way was even more distant for Mo Wuji.

"How can I represent rogue cultivators to participate in the assessment?" Mo Wuji asked excitedly.

Chi Kun still patiently explained, "One is through the fighting of rogue cultivators. The fighting of rogue cultivators will start in three months. Only those who enter the top ten can represent rogue cultivators to participate in the assessment of the Nirvana Learning Academy. The second is to obtain the title of King of Pill Refinement, Weapon Refinement, Formation, or Talisman Dao. For example, if you become a Level 5 Pill King, or you become a Level 5 Divine Formation King... you can represent rogue cultivators to go to the Nirvana Learning Academy for the assessment."

"Because there are the most rogue cultivators, the number of people participating in the assessment is also the largest, a full thirty. But don't look at these thirty. If you calculate according to ten for each sect, the competition among rogue cultivators is the greatest."

"Then how do I obtain these King titles?" Mo Wuji quickly asked.

Chi Kun replied, "The Nirvana Learning Academy greatly encourages all Daos of Heaven and Earth, not only the Way of Cultivation, but also the Way of Weapons, Pill Refinement, Talismans, and Formations are all valued by the Nirvana Learning Academy. Therefore, the Nirvana Learning Academy has established various Dao Honor Towers in the Nirvana Dao City. You can break through the tower to obtain the corresponding title."

"Thank you, Brother Chi. I understand everything." Mo Wuji thanked him. According to Chi Kun's words, there was still a year before the assessment of the Nirvana Learning Academy. This year was enough for him to break through to Level 5 Pill King. Even if he couldn't break through to Level 5 Pill King, he could break through to Level 5 Divine Formation Master.
