“Sea God Lake is very important to Shrek Academy. There may be many buildings surrounding the Sea God Lake, but in reality, these buildings that are able to be near Sea God Lake are Shrek Academy’s allies, and they must be powerful organizations. Even the Spirit Pagoda, after applying for a long time, only managed to get a small piece of land around the lake.

“This place is wonderful, and the life energy is very rich!” Lan Xuanyu said.

Ji Hongbin closed the room door and pointed at the sofa in the room, asking him to take a seat.

“I was about to talk to you about this. When you arrived at the Mother Planet, did you feel any changes in your body?” Ji Hongbin asked.

Lan Xuanyu nodded and said, “Yes, there was a change. It was as if I was absorbing those life energies and it felt very comfortable. I can also cultivate much faster than before.” contemporary romance

Ji Hongbin was elated. “It’s very likely that you have a rare physique that can connect intimately with life and could naturally connect with life energy. This will definitely earn you some bonus points during the test with Shrek Academy. I wanted you to come with me straight away so that you could experience it one step further. You should be able to feel that after entering the academy, the life energy here is thicker. Ordinary people living in this environment wouldn’t be able to stay for too long; it would be harmful to them, as their own vitality would be drawn by the life energy instead. However, Soul Masters do not have this problem and would experience faster cultivation in such an environment instead.

“Further, you possess amiability with life so you have a higher advantage than others. Absorbing the life energy to fulfill your own needs will benefit your body in terms of growth and strengthening your Soul Power. Hence, don’t waste any more time and start meditating right now. Try your best to adapt to this environment and make use of it to strengthen yourself. Also, try to display your amiability with life during the test tomorrow—there will be one section that will specially test this. Your Soul Power will definitely lose out to the rest, so you have to rely on this to make up for it.”

Lan Xuanyu was still a little regretful that he couldn’t explore this place at first, but after listening to the teacher, he understood that Ji Hongbin was doing it for his own good. He quickly nodded, sat down cross-legged on the bed, and tried to meditate.

Ji Hongbin walked to the window. Outside the window was the street outside Shrek Academy, but the high walls blocked most of his view. However, ever since he arrived here, he didn’t know why, but he kept having an uneasy feeling.

He sighed in his heart; he couldn’t hold back anymore and still returned to this place!

Lan Xuanyu, oblivious to the turmoil in his teacher’s heart, had already begun feeling the changes in his body.

With the push from his Spirit Sea realm Spirit Power of 500 points, the Soul Power began reacting according to the Mysterious Heaven Skill. The gentle Soul Power followed the flow of his meridian, and his bloodline vortex started to spin as usual.

Usually, this bloodline vortex would absorb a portion of his Soul Power during cultivation. This time, however, when Lan Xuanyu was cultivating, he could clearly feel the difference.

He could vaguely see many tiny green dots of light in the spiritual world. These dots of light were tiny and compact; they spun along his bloodline vortex and were absorbed into his body. They entered his gold and silver vortex very smoothly and caused the vortex to become much brighter.

Lan Xuanyu could now see the colorful glow in the core of his vortex more clearly. It was as if that colorful light was directing everything.

After this rich life energy entered his body, his bloodline vortex seemed to dislike his Soul Power and no longer absorbed his Soul Power to nourish itself. Instead, the power of his bloodline flourished and was released under the stimulation of the life energy. It caused his blood to flow much faster, and during the process of his cultivation, his Soul Power speed of circulation increased as well.

The cultivation of Soul Power usually increased by absorbing the energy between heaven and earth. The life energy here was so rich, and it was the best for absorbing the energy between heaven and earth. Lan Xuanyu immediately felt that his cultivation here was totally different compared to when he was at Heaven Luo Planet.

In just a few minutes, the Mysterious Heaven Skill had already completed one cycle and he could clearly feel his Soul Power increasing slightly.

This caused his attitude to change. He instinctively thought that if he wasn’t at Heaven Luo Planet but was cultivating in the Mother Planet, he wouldn’t only be at this rank. He might even be at his fourth ring! This was truly like the saying, ‘Comparisons are odious.’ No wonder the candidates from the Mother Planet were so strong.

“Focus, don’t let your mind wander.” Ji Hongbin’s voice resounded directly in his spiritual world and immediately caused Lan Xuanyu to tremble. He hurriedly cleared out all the extra thoughts in his head and focused.

Ji Hongbin kept checking for the changes in his body and his expression changed when he no longer felt anything.

However, after that reminder, Lan Xuanyu returned to being calm again and Ji Hongbin nodded to himself. This disciple of his might be a little spoiled because of Yin Tianfan, but he was very gifted, especially in the aspect of his heart. He didn’t know if his heart was really good or some other reason. Nonetheless, no matter what situation he faced, he never panicked. If another person was tortured like that by Yin Tianfan in the space warship, he or she would have broken down long ago. But not only did he press on, he even showed improvement.

The biggest problem of this disciple was that he was too bold. Usually, smart people were timid, but he was an exception and also a risk-taker. This was shown during the qualifiers and the space pirates attack.

It was a perfect example of the phrase, ‘Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.’ Being bold might not be a bad thing, but Ji Hongbin felt that he might not be steady and as a result, problems would easily arise. On the other hand, he might be rewarded for his boldness in some situations. His disciple had a brilliant mind that allowed him to succeed each time. Lan Xuanyu had always tried to avoid dangers on all previous occasions and would always consider carefully before taking risks. So even though he often took risks, they were mostly successful. Hopefully, he would mature next time and become more stable. Many times, there might be great returns from taking a risk, but it also meant more danger. Just one bad decision is enough to lose the entire game.

As Ji Hongbin watched Lan Xuanyu, he gradually became surprised because the green spot of light that appeared in Lan Xuanyu consciousness appeared in his perception as well.

Ji Hongbin could feel that there was an influx of life energy from all sides of the room. Just how thick was the life energy that appeared in his spiritual world? This was already close to the degree of the Sea God Lake’s shore.

With Ji Hongbin’s cultivation, if he wanted to cultivate, he could definitely draw from the life energy, but the point was that he didn’t do that at all and he was an eighth Soul Ring Douluo.

He didn’t do it so Lan Xuanyu, who was only on his second Soul Ring, was the one guiding this life energy to him! This fella’s amiability with life could actually reach this level? This was simply amazing.

The other teachers didn’t know what it meant to stay at the Shrek guesthouse, but Ji Hongbin knew very well. Being able to stay here was already a reward for these candidates. The rich life energy in Shrek Academy didn’t come naturally but was moved over deliberately. Cultivating in this rich life energy would benefit the Soul Masters greatly; whether it was to breakthrough or improve, it was also beneficial for one’s vitality. If used properly, it was also possible to extend one’s life.

This was why Ji Hongbin made Lan Xuanyu cultivate immediately. Even if he couldn’t get into Shrek, at least he wouldn’t waste the trip.

As for Liu Feng and Qian Lei, he knew in his heart that their chances of getting into Shrek Academy were very slim. Not only did they rely too heavily on Lan Xuanyu, their own cultivation quite weak to begin with.

The entire semi-final wasn’t conducted in teams, there were still many individual tests. If they wanted to pass the individual assessments, it would be very challenging for them, even for Liu Feng who already possessed a Soul Bone. Therefore, he put his focus on Lan Xuanyu to ensure that he had the highest chance of enrolling into Shrek.

If Lan Xuanyu didn’t have amiability with life, he wouldn’t think that he had a chance either.
