Chapter 6 Yuanxuedan
"Brother Xing, you're amazing! You managed to exchange twenty blows with Teacher Lü... I wish I had your real combat experience."
On his way to Lü Yun's office, Duan Peng sighed with genuine emotion.
"I'm the one who should be envious," Wang Xing laughed. "You're an Awakened Void Element cultivator."
"Come on, even if I added 15% to my score, it still wouldn't be as high as yours."
Thinking about how he had awakened the Void Element, Duan Peng clenched his fist: "But from today onwards, I'm going to completely follow in your footsteps, Brother Xing."
Let's cheer each other on!
The two bumped fists and then went to the third floor of Lü Yun's teaching building, where Lü Yun's office was located.
The office was large and used exclusively by Lü Yun. Its style was rugged and masculine, quite different from that of a typical teacher's office. The walls were grayish-white, the desk was made of heavy solid wood, and there was a boxing stance by the window, its leather covering wrinkled and worn, clearly indicating frequent use.
The wall near the entrance is covered with various certificates and awards: "Outstanding Qi and Blood Teacher", "Best Mentor of the Year", "Outstanding Contribution Award for Education in Chengdu"...
On the other side are several heavy military medals, one of which, with dark patterns, is the most eye-catching. It is the medal of honor for the Battle of the Black Abyss in the Northern Desert... Lu Yun was seriously wounded in that battle.
"Please sit down."
Lü Yun leaned back in her chair and looked at Duan Peng first: "Duan Peng, you're going to the Yuanpei Class this afternoon. Let me tell you a few things... First, the training intensity of the Yuanpei Class is twice that of the regular classes. You'll find it difficult at first, but you have to grit your teeth and keep up."
Duan Peng nodded.
"Secondly, the students in the Yuanpei Class all have their own specialties. Some are good at piloting mechs, and some are good at using space elemental power... You should compare yourself to yourself and make good use of the hummingbird-type mech's agility and maneuverability."
"Yes."
"Thirdly, your Qi and Blood... are too poor!" Lu Yun tapped the table with his finger: "Your Qi and Blood level of 5.0 is already low, and it's also weak. Without a solid physical foundation, you can't unleash your combat skills. It's like building a house; if the foundation isn't solid, no matter how tall the building is, it's still a dangerous structure."
"Once you're in the Yuanpei Class, I'll be keeping a close eye on your qi and blood circulation and physical training."
Upon hearing this, Duan Peng and Wang Xing exchanged a glance and were both stunned.
Keep a close eye on it?
"Teacher, aren't you the Qi and Blood teacher for the regular classes? Why are you monitoring the students in the Yuanpei Class?"
Lu Yun picked up the teacup on the table and slowly took a sip.
Seeing the stunned expressions on their faces, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
"You're in your final year of high school. To improve your academic performance, the school has moved me to the Yuanpei Class."
He put down his teacup, his tone mocking, "What? Am I not qualified to be the Qi and Blood Instructor for the Yuanpei Class?"
No, no.
No, no.
The two immediately shook their heads.
That's no polite way of putting it.
Lu Yun's Qi and Blood strength is absolutely the best at Rongcheng No. 2 High School. He had been teaching regular classes before, purely because he lacked experience. After all, he had only been working for three years after retiring from the military, while the Qi and Blood teachers for the Yuanpei Class were always veteran teachers with more than five years of teaching experience.
There is no dispute that Lü Yunsheng was promoted.
only……
Wang Xing thought to himself that the students in the Yuanpei Class were about to experience Old Lu's habit of "recommending mecha academies or enlisting whenever he had nothing to do."
"Alright."
Lu Yun looked at Duan Peng, "Go back and pack your things, report to the Yuanpei Class tomorrow."
"Okay, goodbye Teacher Lü and Brother Xing."
Duan Peng stood up and left the office.
Only the two of them remained in the office.
Wang Xing spoke first, congratulating Teacher Lü on being promoted to the Yuanpei Class with a smile.
Lü Yun leaned back in her chair: "Shouldn't you be disappointed that I was promoted to the Yuanpei Class?"
"The thought of not being able to attend Professor Lü's class really makes me sad."
Wang Xing flattered, "However, it is well-deserved that Teacher Lü was promoted to the Yuanpei Class."
Just kidding.
Looking at Wang Xing's expression, Lü Yun laughed and said, "Although I've been promoted to the Yuanpei Class, I'm still in charge of your class's Qi and Blood class. The school has made me take on both classes."
Wang Xing laughed along with him.
There has always been a tacit understanding between him and Lü Yun.
Lü Yun admired his hard work... and he also respected Lü Yun's skills.
If the instructor for the Qi and Blood class were replaced with someone else, Wang Xing would definitely not be able to adapt well.
"Teacher Lü, what brings you here?"
Lu Yun walked to the desk, opened the drawer, took out a small silver box about the size of a palm, and gently pushed it in front of Wang Xing.
The box is opened.
A blood-red pill lay quietly inside, its surface faintly marked with fine lines, like the blood vessels of some creature. The fragrance of the pill, mixed with a faint aura of abyssal beast, wafted out.
"This is……"
"Abyssal Blood Pill!"
Wang Xing's pupils contracted.
"Made from the blood of the Fierce Bone Hound, it replenishes qi and blood and strengthens the foundation. Your qi and blood were exhausted in the battle just now, so this is perfect for you."
Wang Xing was stunned; of course he knew about the Abyss Blood Pill.
This is a tonic made primarily from the blood of abyssal monsters, combined with various precious medicinal herbs. It has remarkable effects on tempering, repairing, and advancing one's Qi and blood at the initial stage. People with a good physical foundation might even be able to directly increase their Qi and blood level.
If Wang Xing remembered correctly, a single Blood Pill from a Fierce Bone Hound was worth nearly 20,000 yuan on the market.
His mother works as a postpartum nanny at a postpartum care center, and she has to go without food or drink for two and a half months to buy one.
And most importantly...
This wasn't issued by the school.
This belongs to Lü Yun!
"Teacher, this is too expensive, I can't accept it."
Wang Xing quickly pushed the box back.
Even students from well-off families would only take one Abyss Blood Pill every few months.
Lu Yun has the pension of a frontline military division commander and the salary of a Qi and Blood Mentor, earning fifty to sixty thousand yuan a month. Buying a Yuanxue Pill is nothing to him.
But for Wang Xing... that's a luxury.
"This was specially prepared for you. I had someone save this one for you when your blood energy level rose to 7.1 two weeks ago."
Lu Yun leaned back in his chair, having already anticipated that the child wouldn't accept immediately: "Besides, in the sparring just now, I scratched your shoulder armor, so this pill... consider it compensation."
"Teacher, that scratch is nothing..." Wang Xing quickly said.
"Stop talking nonsense, just take it."
Lu Yun interrupted him, her tone leaving no room for argument, "Talent is determined by God, but hard work is earned. With your mindset, you shouldn't let your family background hold you back."
Wang Xing remained silent for a few seconds.
Looking at that blood-red pill, his gratitude was beyond measure.
"I only met Teacher Lü by chance, yet he has given me tremendous help. I must repay him someday!"
Wang Xing thought to himself, carefully put the box into his pocket, and looked up to meet Lü Yun's gaze:
"Teacher Lü, I'll pay for the pills later..."
"We'll talk about the future later."
Lu Yun waved his hand, clearly not wanting to discuss this topic any further, and changed the subject:
"Your performance in today's battle surprised me. Those two tactics were executed very well... You must have practiced a lot in the Beidou Metaverse, right? How many stars have you reached?"
"Silver rank, four stars."
"No wonder."
Lu Yun's eyes lit up slightly. "Just one star away from gold, that's a very impressive achievement."
"Spend more time practicing in the metaverse during this period; it will benefit your combat skills. Especially one-on-one combat; you should focus on that these next few days."
"One-on-one?"
Wang Xing looked puzzled.
"The college entrance exam in September, which is a month away, is very important for you. You need to improve your performance in the actual exam!"
Lu Yun tapped his fingers on the table, his tone becoming serious:
"If you do well on the exam, you can get into the Yuanpei Class!"
"Mom's news is true..." Wang Xing's eyes lit up. Although he knew about this, he still pretended to be surprised.
"This September's college entrance exams..."
Next, Lü Yun told Wang Xing about the college entrance exam, including the fact that the top ten in the overall score ranking would be admitted to Yuanpei College and share all the resources of the Yuanpei Class, etc.
"I know this is quite difficult for you."
Lü Yun leaned back, her voice becoming somewhat more relaxed:
"But which mech pilot isn't challenging their own limits? Which mech pilot isn't exchanging pain for tomorrow, measuring their dreams with climbing?"
"I understand, Teacher Lü. I will do my best!"
Wang Xing nodded emphatically: "Humanity's strongest warrior, Chu Xingyuan, once said: 'Sheer cliffs are never merciful, but climbing them is always worthwhile!'"
"Well said!"
Lu Yun nodded in satisfaction and slowly took a sip of tea... Then his expression suddenly changed to one that Wang Xing was very familiar with, carrying a hint of "I'm about to start again".
"I have something else to say."
"My comrade brought me some news: this year, the Dragon Kingdom will invest more funds in the mecha military academy, and the military subsidies for the mecha military academy will increase many times over, so—"
"Have you ever considered a mecha military academy?"
