Chapter 269 Sweet Grass
Everyone was somewhat surprised; it turned out that Leng Yun had planned to challenge Zhou Si all along.
“However, Zhou Si is the number one on the boxing champion list after all, so he does have some skill,” Zhang Yu said.
Leng Yun remained calm and did not speak.
“I think Junior Brother Leng Yun might be able to defeat Zhou Si, after all, Junior Brother Leng Yun was able to kill even the guardian of the Rubik's Cube Field,” Chen Bing said.
Leng Yun secretly calculated in his heart that dealing with Zhou Si might not be easy, but that was a matter for later. What he needed to do now was to defeat Mi Tian and expose Nangong Jue.
On the other hand, there's also the matter of preparing for the boxing championship.
The academy has issued a notice that two teams can be selected from the Fist God Academy, and each team must have three members, according to the rules.
Zhou Si and Mi Tian will both participate, and with Leng Yun joining, there will be three teams. Therefore, Leng Yun can only qualify for the boxing championship by defeating Mi Tian.
This makes the duel between the two even more anticipated.
Just as everyone was chatting, a disciple suddenly came to report: "Vice Dean Bai Shu has come to see you."
Leng Yun and the others immediately went out to greet them.
"Vice Dean, I didn't expect you to come here in person." Leng Yun's attitude was respectful, after all, he had a good impression of the Vice Dean.
Bai Shu smiled and said, "Haha, this is a great place. If you develop it further, I'll want to work for your Yun Gang too."
"The vice dean is joking," Leng Yun said with a slight smile.
The people behind him all bowed to the vice dean in respect.
Bai Shu waved his hand and said to Leng Yun, "Leng Yun, come with me, I'm going to take you somewhere."
Leng Yun was taken aback, wondering what kind of place would warrant the vice dean's personal visit, but he still followed him.
The two walked on the streets of the inner city. It was already broad daylight, and people were coming and going on the streets. When they saw Leng Yun and Bai Shu together, they talked about it.
Now, people's attitudes toward Leng Yun are divided into two camps: one camp firmly supports Leng Yun, while the other camp believes that Leng Yun is a traitor.
However, Leng Yun ignored everyone's opinions and followed Bai Shu straight into the depths of the inner courtyard.
Because this place belongs to the elders of the inner courtyard, Leng Yun rarely comes here.
Now that Leng Yun is an honorary elder, he could easily have his own house here, but he still prefers to be with the people of the Yun Gang.
Bai Shu, accompanied by Leng Yun, passed through a magnificent building.
“These are the residences of the Elders of the Inner Court,” Bai Shu explained.
Leng Yun praised, "It is indeed very grand."
“If you’d like, you can have a house here too,” Bai Shu said kindly.
Leng Yun smiled and said, "My Yun Gang is not bad either."
Bai Shu laughed heartily and continued, "Now that you are an honorary elder of the Fist God Academy, you can naturally tell me the secrets of the Fist God Academy. Moreover, you may be able to do me a great favor in the future."
Leng Yun was taken aback, wondering what Elder Bai Shu meant by the secret.
Just as Leng Yun was about to ask a question, the two arrived at a heavily guarded manor.
They had reached the deepest part of the inner courtyard, where a high wall separated the inside from the outside.
And guarding the entrance were two inner court elders.
"Elder Qin, it's your turn to be on duty today," Bai Shu greeted one of them.
Elder Qin glanced at him, then respectfully said, "Vice Dean, you brought Leng Yun with you?"
Bai Shu nodded. Now that he is an honorary elder of our Fist God Academy, he should know the deepest secrets of our Fist God Academy.
After saying that, Bai Shu led Leng Yun into the courtyard.
Even before reaching the door, Leng Yun could sense a powerful force emanating from within.
Upon entering, one is greeted by a series of training platforms.
On two platforms, two elders sat with their eyes closed, cultivating, seemingly undisturbed by Leng Yun and the others entering.
"Where is this?" Leng Yun asked curiously.
"This is the Fist God Garden, a place where the elders of the Fist God Academy cultivate," Bai Shu explained.
Then, the two passed through the gap in the training platform and arrived at the middle position.
It was only then that Leng Yun discovered that in the middle of the Fist God Garden, there was a large pit about ten meters deep, with a patch of green plants at the bottom, and next to the green plants, a long dragon was lying!
Leng Yun's heart skipped a beat: "This is—"
Bai Zhu nodded: "That's right, this is Ganlingcao!"
Leng Yun was secretly delighted: "Finally found it!"
It turns out that the Ganling Grass was indeed hidden in the Fist God Academy.
Actually, one of Leng Yun's purposes in coming here was to investigate the Rubik's Cube Field, and the other was to find the Ganling Grass.
Now, we have finally achieved our goal and found the location of the licorice.
What intrigued Leng Yun was that the long dragon coiled beside the Ganling Grass seemed to be sleeping, faintly emitting snoring sounds, and with each breath, a gust of hot air would rush up from the deep pit.
Bai Shu paused for a moment and asked, "Leng Yun, have you noticed anything unusual?"
In fact, Leng Yun had already sensed something when he first entered the Fist God Garden: the atmosphere around the Fist God Garden was different from that outside.
Leng Yun was very familiar with this aura; it was the same as the Heart-Driving Cauldron he kept in the Leng family, which could accelerate cultivation.
That makes sense. Ganling Herb is used to refine experience pills. Since it can accelerate Leng Yun's experience points, it should also have the effect of accelerating cultivation speed.
“That’s exactly right!” Bai Shu seemed to have seen through Leng Yun’s thoughts.
He continued, "Our Fist God Academy has become one of the three major powers in Yunyang Kingdom precisely because it possesses such rare treasures, and has stood firm for hundreds of years. However, it is now encountering some problems."
"Is it because of that long dragon?" Leng Yun speculated.
Bai Zhu nodded: "That's right. The environment in which Ganling Grass grows requires extremely high temperatures, and this long dragon is the divine beast that protects Ganling Grass. Its aura is enough to provide Ganling Grass with sufficient temperature to grow."
“But now, this long dragon is old and its life is not long.” Leng Yun saw the connection.
Bai Shu sighed, "Yes, actually the power of Ganling Grass has weakened a lot now. Soon this long dragon will ascend, and then Ganling Grass will probably become extinct."
Leng Yun suddenly realized why Bai Shu had said that he might need her help.
Bai Zhu wanted Leng Yun to use the flames within her body to protect Gan Ling Cao.
In fact, Bai Zhu had long known that the Cold Cloud Flame was extremely special. If the Cold Cloud Flame had helped, perhaps the Gan Ling Grass could have continued to grow.
Leng Yun nodded, not only to help, but also because he needed the Ganling Grass himself: "I will try my best."
Bai Shu smiled kindly: "But there's no rush now. Judging from the dragon's appearance, it should still be some time before it ascends. Right now, your most important task is the battle with Mi Tian."
Leng Yun was slightly taken aback: "The vice dean is also concerned about our petty squabbles?"
Bai Shu laughed and said, "This is no small matter. Your battle has already caused a sensation throughout the entire inner courtyard."
In fact, this battle is of great importance, not only for the ranking of the boxing champion, but also for Leng Yun's status in the inner courtyard, the fate of Nangong Jue, and most importantly, for the quota to participate in the boxing championship.
Therefore, it is conceivable how much attention this duel received; even the vice dean took notice of it.
Bai Shu continued, "However, Mi Tian is not easy to deal with, so you must not be careless."
Leng Yun nodded: "Don't worry, we'll know the result in another day."
Leng Yun looked at the sleeping dragon at the bottom of the pit, with fiery heat rising continuously from it.
