“Really?” Hao Ren looked at Lu sisters in surprise.

In theory, they could select any courses offered by the university. However, if they picked courses of other programs randomly, there might be a schedule conflict with the mandatory courses of their own program.

“Hahaha…” Lu Linlin snickered at Hao Ren.

Lu Lili smiled shyly, showing her white teeth through her curving lips.

From Lu Lili’s expression, Hao Ren was sure that they had successfully transferred to his program.

All the first-year students could apply to transfer programs at the end of the school year as long as their grades reached certain thresholds.

“The first 20-minute course selection slot is now over. Everyone, please leave the computer lab,” the teacher in charge said.

Laughing light-heartedly, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili stood up and skipped toward the door of the computer lab.

To make the school life easy for them, Lu Qing had arranged for them to enter the Films Program. However, after almost half a year of hard work, they succeeded in transferring to Hao Ren’s program.

Except for the members of Go Club, the students all left the computer lab to be replaced by the next group of students who were waiting outside in line.

Zhao Yanzi followed Hao Ren out of the computer lab. After all, she came to visit Hao Ren to relieve her boredom. Last night, she had gone singing with Ling and her other roommates, and they went back very late. More energetic than Ling and the other girls, Zhao Yanzi got up early, and her first thought was to come and find Hao Ren.

“Awesome! Awesome!” After walking out of the computer lab, Zhou Liren yelled in excitement.

Since he had been one of the first groups who logged into the course selection system and had the fastest internet speed, he had no trouble selecting every course he wanted. If things went smoothly, he wouldn’t fail any classes this year!

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were also cheerful. Although they could have logged into the course selection system in their dorm building, they purposefully came here to find Hao Ren to select all the courses he had.

This way, they could go to all the classes with Hao Ren!

The lower-year students could take courses designed for upper-year students, as long as they could pass the exams.

Since they were transferred from another program, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were supposed to take the freshmen’s courses. However, they’d rather stay with Hao Ren.

It was quite common to have students of different years taking the same courses. For example, Zhou Liren had to retake a first-year course he had failed again.

However, Zhou Liren didn’t feel any shame from it. Instead, he claimed that failing the course was part of his strategy to get close to the first-year girls…

“Hungry! Hungry! Hungry…”

The moment they came out of the building, Zhao Yanzi began to yell and wanted to eat. She was bored when she watched Hao Ren select courses in the computer lab, and she didn’t know that Hao Ren and Xie Yujia had selected the same courses right under her eyes… She was quite ineffective as a ‘separation wall.’

Since the new LingZhao Middle School’s cafeteria hadn’t opened yet, Zhao Yanzi had come to East Ocean University so that Hao Ren would treat her to a meal.

“Stop nagging…” Hearing Zhao Yanzi repeating herself like a robot, Hao Ren interrupted her in a hurry. “I’ll take you to the cafeteria for lunch!”

“Ok!” Zhao Yanzi cheered up immediately.

Separated by only a three-meter-wide street, she could ride the bike to East Ocean University from LingZhao Middle School and make Hao Ren buy her meals every day.

She had tried the dishes at East Ocean University’s cafeteria, and the food wasn’t bad.

“Here!” Zhao Yanzi pushed her bicycle into Hao Ren’s hands.

From her perspective, it was natural for Hao Ren to ride the bike and carry her.

Seeing her act, Zhao Jiayi and the other guys all thought that Hao Ren’s little ‘cousin’ was ‘ferocious.’

“Since our school starts tomorrow, she probably won’t come as often, right?” they thought.

Hao Ren rode the bicycle toward Clear Stream Cafe, the cafeteria closest to them, with Zhao Yanzi sitting on the back seat.

Smiling helplessly, Xie Yujia rode her bike and followed Hao Ren.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili had bought a tandem bicycle from somewhere, and they rode it in giggles.

Dumbfounded, Yu Rong and the other guys watched Hao Ren as he rode the bike toward the cafeteria with four beauties.

They were envious and wished that they could one day also rank third in the program and hang out with as many girls as Hao Ren did.

It was the last day for the freshmen’s campus military training. When Hao Ren rode toward the cafeteria with Zhao Yanzi sitting on the back seat, he saw several formations marching along the boulevard by the lake.

“March!” The trainer yelled.

Hua! Hua! Hua! Hua!

The freshmen marched neatly.

When Hao Ren was a freshman at East Ocean University, he had been in the same military training as well. Therefore, when seeing this, he felt a little nostalgic.

In fact, while they were in the military training, the guys had secretly named Xie Yujia the most beautiful girl in the class and later all voted her as the Class President.

Hao Ren had an excellent impression of Xie Yujia then, but he thought that such a pretty and elegant girl wouldn’t notice him.

Seeing the same thing, Xie Yujia also thought back to two years ago. At that time, she had little impression of Hao Ren. In the blink of an eye, two years had passed, and she had found her ‘little older brother.’

Having never seen a campus military training before, Zhao Yanzi sat sideways on the back seat facing the marching formation. She watched them curiously while waving her arms and feet, copying their movements.

Following Hao Ren and Xie Yujia on their tandem bicycle, Lu Linin and Lu Lili passed the formation with wide-open eyes, finding it quite fun. Since they entered East Ocean University in the later part of the school year, they had been lucky to miss the freshmen’s military training.

Hua! Hua! Hua… When Zhao Yanzi, a super cute little girl, passed, the formation managed to keep its shape. When Xie Yujia, a beautiful senior student, passed them riding on a bicycle, the formation barely held still. Lastly, when the pretty and cute twin beauties passed them riding on a tandem bicycle, the formation finally collapsed.

Hualala… The uniformed steps got messy, and the students stepped onto the heals of others who were walking ahead of them. Like domino cards, a large group of students in the formation fell to the ground. The sweating trainer who was wearing a military uniform looked back and cussed.

The formation that was made of all male students looked at the beauties, and they couldn’t be pulled back…

“Classes Three, Four, Five and Six! Stand for one hour!”

When Hao Ren rode out of the boulevard, he heard the furious roars of the trainer behind him.

The cafeterias in East Ocean University had nice environments and tasty dishes. Starved, Zhao Yanzi ate more than Hao Ren did to compensate her missed breakfast.

Seeing her undisguised appetite, Hao Ren found her quite cute.

At five o’clock in the afternoon, the Counselor would come and give them a lecture before the new school year began, and there was nothing scheduled before that time.

After lunch, Hao Ren immediately took Zhao Yanzi and others to Fifth Heaven.

Ethereal Summit on Fifth Heaven looked quite different since Zhao Yanzi’s last visit. Seeing more than a dozen chubby snow lion cubs, she was overwhelmed by their cuteness and rushed over to take them into her arms.

Lu Linlin and Lu Lili helped Xie Yujia take care of the spiritual herbs and then collected the golden poop of the snow lion cubs before spreading it in the fields as fertilizer.

“Little White, let’s go!” Seeing the four girls busy with their own business, Hao Ren rode Little White out of the valley.

With lots of time on his hand, Hao Ren changed into a Daoist robe in his cave abode and rode Little White to Kongtong Sect for a visit.

With Little White’s speed, they quickly arrived at the mountains where Kongtong Sect was.

The once-prosperous Kongtong Sect had become ruins, and the front and back mountains were filled with big craters, probably the work of nearby smaller sects which had come here and tried to find treasures.

After putting away Little White, Hao Ren reduced the appearance of his realm to low-tier Foundation Establishment Realm before landing on the ruins.

A mid-aged cultivator who was a mid-tier Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was flipping through the ruins. Seeing that Hao Ren appeared to be a low-tier Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator, he said, “Friend, this spot is mine,”

“Hehe, friend, why is Kongtong Sect in this dilapidated state?” Hao Ren asked.

“Don’t you know anything about it?!” That cultivator looked at Hao Ren in contempt. “Kongtong Sect messed with a powerful cultivator and got destroyed!”

“What kind of powerful cultivator?” Hao Ren asked immediately.

“Did you just come out of seclusion cultivation?” That cultivator looked at Hao Ren suspiciously and waved his hand. “This spot is mine; take your questions to another place!’

“Friend! Friend!” Hao Ren took out three low-tier spirit stones and placed them into that cultivator’s hands.

There were both rich and poor cultivators who were on Foundation Establishment Realm. Since this cultivator was here to search through the ruins of Kongtong Sect, he definitely wasn’t a rich person.

Seeing the spirit stones, he immediately took them and changed his tone, saying, “This powerful master is from Ethereal Summit, which was originally called Herb King Valley.”

“It’s said that a powerful elixir master lives in Ethereal Summit and satisfies all the requests with his or her advanced elixir making skills. The cultivator who destroyed Kongtong Sect is one of the core disciples who had reached top-tier Core Formation Realm… He was so mad that he broke the longsword…”

He described the scenes to Hao Ren in detail, oblivious to the fact that the man standing before him was the main character in his story.

“After that young man killed several elders, two elders stole some elixirs and fled in three days. Five days later, Hongshan Sect, Gongyang Sect, and Xinxiang Sect came to attack them. The sect master of Kongtong was killed by his own disciples, and all treasures were robbed,” the cultivator continued.

“So, that was what happened.” Hao Ren pretended to be surprised. Kongtong Sect which had more than 1,000 years of history was indirectly wiped out by him. No wonder cultivators on Fifth Heaven held Ethereal Summit in high regards.

“Yeah. Now, that master controls three sects near the Ethereal Summit, and they are Qin Yin Sect, Seven Star Sect, and Qiong Hua Sect.” The cultivator looked at Hao Ren and asked suddenly, “Friend, don’t you know this?”

“Please… Please inform me…” Hao Ren handed two more low-tier spirit stones.

These spirit stones were Zhao Yanzi’s loots when she ‘robbed’ the evil cultivators.

Before leaving the valley, Hao Ren took some as his pocket money, and they found their use here.

Looking at Hao Ren, the cultivator thought to himself, “This young cultivator is very generous and must be from a big sect. For exchange of some information, he offered five low-tier spirit stones, equivalent to the annual income of a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator. However, since the disciples from big sects usually have solid backgrounds, they couldn’t be messed with easily.”

At this thought, the mid-aged cultivator put away the spirit stones and continued, “These three sects are controlled by the master in Ethereal Summit who is trying to collect all kinds of spiritual herbs on Fifth Heaven. Since this master is trying to collect spiritual herbs, anyone who can bring him or her the required items will be rewarded with all kinds of level 3 elixirs. It’s said that this master is making an extremely powerful elixir.”

This cultivator thought he was delivering important information and didn’t know that Hao Ren was laughing on the inside.

Now, the name of Ethereal Summit, Herb King Valley, and the ‘Elixir Master’ had their fearsome reputation all over the place.

Ordinary cultivators would never mess with the Ethereal Summit.

“The elixir pills made by this master are now selling at 600 low-tier spirit stones each in the markets controlled by the big sects. In the underground markets, it’s 800 low-tier spirit stones for one pill.”

“Prices of the precious spiritual herbs have increased greatly. Each sect is sending their elite disciples to guard the herb gardens which have become the most important place in the sects. Some precious spiritual herbs are guarded by specially appointed cultivators since they hope to trade them for elixirs,” the mid-aged cultivator continued.

In his eyes, Hao Ren was just a young cultivator who had just reached the Foundation Establishment Realm and came out for the experience. It was quite a good deal for him to earn several spirit stones with the information everyone knew.

However, after hearing these things, Hao Ren knew that Xie Yujia’s elixirs had begun to gain reputation, and those sects which ignored the growth of spiritual herbs due to their inability to make elixir pills were now growing their unique spiritual herbs to trade for the elixir pills that Xie Yujia could make.

It meant that Xie Yujia had developed lots of ‘downlines,’ and the entire Fifth Heaven had become Xie Yujia’s herb growing base!

“Besides elixir making skills, this master’s realm is probably very high. After all, the disciple destroyed Kongtong Sect easily. If you and I are to fight with this disciple, neither of us would be able to withstand his attacks!” the mid-aged cultivator continued.

It felt like he wished that he could become one of the disciples of Ethereal Summit. He didn’t know that the man standing before him was in fact the very person who had destroyed Kongtong Sect.

“Are there any treasures left in Kongtong Sect?” Hao Ren asked him.

“Well… Kongtong Sect is a big sect with a history of more than 1,000 years, and I guess that there might be some treasures left behind.” Thinking that Hao Ren wanted to seek treasures in this place, the mid-aged cultivator hesitated a little.

Looking around the big mountains, Hao Ren saw several Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators moving around.

Having no interest in their activities, he flew up into the sky.

Under the mid-aged cultivator’s astonished eyes, Hao Ren turned into a white light beam and vanished into the distance, and he was headed toward Ethereal Summit.

When Hao Ren was about to go into the valley, he saw a girl standing at the entrance.

“Duan Yao from Sky Mountain Sect on Sixth Heaven is here to exchange an elixir pill with Master!” The girl released a voice transmission note into the valley.
