I Have A Cultivation World - Chapter 361
Chapter 361: Chapter 282: Core Formation Probability_1
After Lan Haitian’s victory over Xiahou Weihuan, he continued to compete in the Little Red Sky for thirteen matches.
With his strength, he naturally had no rivals.
The reason for only thirteen consecutive victories was not due to Lan Haitian being exhausted or uninterested in fighting.
Rather, there were no late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators in Little Red Sky who dared to compete.
Although he could still get matched with some mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, Lan Haitian felt quite indifferent towards this. After defeating a Rank-5 sword cultivator in the thirteenth match, he chose not to engage in another match and exited the Little Red Sky.
“Zijing, is there any interesting place to visit in our Daoist Academy?”
In the student council, Hua Zijing, who had watched two consecutive battles, received a call from Chen Mobai, who asked a rather peculiar question.
“Visit? Do you have a friend coming over?”
As the vice-president and the head of the secretary’s office of the student council, Hua Zijing instinctively thought of this upon hearing Chen Mobai’s question.
“Yeah, you can set up the schedule and write up the itinerary for me, including lunch. The food should preferably be the characteristic delicacies of our Daoist Academy.”
“I am the head of the secretary’s office in the student council, not your personal secretary. You should arrange for your own friend’s visit.”
Hua Zijing responded, sounding quite disgruntled.
Ming Yu and a few others on the side were constantly winking at her, suggesting that it wouldn’t be a problem for her to act as the president’s secretary, as none of the student council members had an issue with it.
“Oh, it’s like this. My friend is technically coming on a private visit, but in reality, he’s been invited by our Daoist Academy as a helper. Apart from visiting Crimson Mountain, we also plan to show him a great time to express our Daoist Academy’s gratitude.”
The words that came over the phone from Chen Mobai confused Hua Zijing a little.
“Our academy’s gratitude? Who is it? This person must be quite an important figure.”
“It’s Lan Haitian!”
Upon hearing this name, Hua Zijing’s hand trembled and her phone almost slipped out of her hand onto the floor.
“Lan… Mr… Are you… friends with him?”
Hua Zijing, who was usually decisive, calm, and collected, suddenly discovered that she was quite stuttering.
“Yes, during my entrance exam to the Daoist Academy, the representative from the Kunpeng Daoist Institute was him. We hit it off well and became friends-cum-confidants.”
“When Pure Yang Academy crossed the line this time, he heard about Taishi Shu’s defeat and as he was nearby, he came to help us out.”
“It’s just a shame that Sima Xingyu did not dare to enter the Little Red Sky for a match, otherwise we would’ve made short work of those from Pure Yang Academy today.”
Chen Mobai’s regretful voice came through the phone, causing Hua Zijing and the rest of the student council to open their mouths wide in shock.
“I understand now, Mr. President. Don’t worry, I will make sure everything is arranged perfectly, you’ll be utterly satisfied.”
In the end, Hua Zijing responded seriously.
After hanging up the phone, she immediately started giving orders to the student council members to start preparing and purchasing ingredients.
Ming Yuhua was just about to leave when he was caught by her sharp eyes. She ordered him to go with her to invite the master chef.
“Isn’t this a bit too grand?”
That day, Lan Haitian, who had just visited Che Yucheng, was brought around Crimson Mountain by Chen Mobai for half a day. After that, they came to the student council’s dining room arranged by Hua Zijing.
In the face of the lavish spread of food and the man and woman in black suits serving on either side, Lan Haitian was somewhat overwhelmed.
“You stood up for our Daoist Academy, no amount of grandeur is excessive. Here, this is the Transparent Spirit Fish grown in the underground currents of the Treasure Trove, I heard the taste is exquisite. I’ve never tasted it before.”
Seeing the dish being served, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but swallow.
This Spirit Fish was something he had only heard of, rumored that a student had spent 1 academic credit to exchange for this delicacy.
Hua Zijing and Ming Yuhua on the side immediately helped to cut up the half-transparent crystal-like steamed fish and placed it in front of the two of them.
After tasting it, both Chen Mobai and Lan Haitian couldn’t stop praising it.
There was no need for any added seasoning, the original taste after steaming was better than the Azure Blood Carps that Chen Mobai had eaten before.
However, this fish only had taste, it could not enhance the Spiritual Root.
After a series of dishes, Chen Mobai also brought out his own brewed Jade Bud Spirit Wine.
Lan Haitian took a few sips.
Everyone at the feast was pleased.
After dinner, Che Yucheng came again.
He took them to the core of the Treasure Trove where Duanmu Longrong was.
“Pick one.”
Duanmu Longrong had already prepared five “Device Nurturing Spheres.”
“I’m truly unworthy of such treatment.”
Lan Haitian felt a bit embarrassed. He had heard about the Treasure Trove from Chen Mobai in the morning and knew how precious these “Device Nurturing Spheres” were. Plus, he was merely following Nan Dou’s orders, the Dance Tool Dao Academy did not really owe him anything.
“Heh, just take it, otherwise, Nan Dou will definitely say we’re stingy when you go back.”
Che Yucheng smiled and indicated for Lan Haitian to accept.
“Right, it’s the give-and-take principle. This way, the bond between us can deepened. The four major Daoist Academies share a common lot. As you’ve helped us this time, it’s natural to present you a Rank-3 Magic Artifact as a sign of appreciation.”
While Duanmu Longrong was speaking, she took out a Device Piece and handed it to Lan Haitian.
“Well then, I will not decline any more.”
Lan Haitian picked up all five “Device Nurturing Spheres” and played around with them. He also tried to inject his Spiritual Power into them to sense the attributes of the artifacts within.
Chen Mobai was initially a bystander, but Che Yucheng gave him a meaningful look. The master-student pair shared an understanding, and he immediately understood his master’s intention. This was to go all out for the occasion, to be thoroughly kind to the guest.
