Path of Alchemy Mastery Chapter 497

Sun Yao confidently attacked Mu Can, in his heart, this battle was not even worthy of being called a battle. It was simply a game where an adult beats a child. But when he attacked, he found that Mu Can had moved, easily dodging his punch. Then, with a flash, Mu Can moved past close by him, perfectly positioning himself in the blind spot of Sun Yao’s leg technique. Mu Can himself did not know how he had seen through Sun Yao’s moves, it was merely because he had fought numerous times with the dean within the sixth layer of Reincarnation Pearl. His body almost formed something innate, compared to the dean, Sun Yao’s moves, which he thought were perfect, had many flaws. This demonstrates the powerful effect of the sixth layer of the Reincarnation Pearl, able to step by step enhance Mu Can’s battle consciousness during a fight with someone of the dean’s level. "What strong battle consciousness." Ling Feng couldn’t help but exclaim as he watched Mu Can on the field. His junior brother’s combat consciousness had already far surpassed that of Sun Yao, who was in the Spirit Transformation Realm. "This battle is undeniable, what do you think, teacher?" Ling Feng asked the teacher beside him. When Mu Can revealed battle consciousness surpassing that of Sun Yao, the battle had already ended. The teacher nodded in agreement, highly approving of Ling Feng’s statement. In an equal rank battle, the only advantage Sun Yao could count on was his battle consciousness that was far greater than Mu Can’s. But when this significant advantage turned into a disadvantage against Mu Can, he stood no chance at all. Indeed, what followed was a one-sided battle. Mu Can fighting Sun Yao was as easy as the dean fighting Mu Can in the sixth layer. Sun Yao could not even touch the hem of Mu Can’s clothes before he was directly knocked out of the ring. "I don’t accept this." Sun Yao struggled to get up from the ground. He could not accept his defeat, especially to someone whose cultivation was a whole level lower than his. "Talent doesn’t represent everything," Mu Can said. It was only when he saw Sun Yao’s face turning red did he realize his words might have sounded somewhat mocking. Knowing Sun Yao misunderstood, he helplessly shook his head. "Don’t forget, thirty academic points," Mu Can sternly said, staring at Sun Yao. He who insults others must be prepared to be insulted; if you want to bully me and Luo Tian using your strength, then be ready to be bullied. He lightly jumped down from the ring and gave Ling Feng a fist salute. "Senior brother, I didn’t disgrace our master, did I?" A smile appeared on Mu Can’s face. It seems the special training in the sixth layer of the Reincarnation Pearl was indeed effective. This is the bizarre aspect of the Reincarnation Pearl, giving Mu Can a chance to fight at the same level as the All Things Realm, something many can only dream of and beg for. "Not bad, you performed well," Ling Feng smiled, even he might not have done better than Mu Can in that situation. "Nicely done, Brother Can, thirty academic points, you’re buying dinner," Luo Tian playfully patted Mu Can’s shoulder. Ever since Mu Can got the membership card for the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, Luo Tian had been looking forward to Mu Can treating him to a meal. "No problem, just a dinner, no big deal, the older brother will also join this evening," Hu Bing laughed heartily in agreement. The cost of the meal was nothing, the body of a gold-devouring rat had provided him with plenty of Spirit Stones. Besides, in Divine Wind Academy, the role of Spirit Stones is negligible; Academic Points are what matter most; not even Spirit Stones can buy that. Sun Yao left the battleground looking dejected, presumably too ashamed to stay there any longer. Subsequent fights were unremarkable, all about testing the waters in the battleground. "Are you the super-talented Mu Can?" A young man with white hair swaggered over. "What do you want, White Demon?" Ling Feng saw the white-haired man and asked defensively. "What can I do? Come on, Ling Feng, is that really necessary?" The white-haired youth said casually, looking at Ling Feng. "I’m Mu Can, who are you?" Mu Can cursed inwardly, damn it, despite keeping a low profile, someone still sought him out. "Nothing much, I’m White Demon, just want to invite you to join our association," White Demon said softly. "Ah? White Demon, is he the Heavenly List’s White Demon? The sixth-ranked one?" "He’s quite handsome, is he the one who established the Demon Clan Association?" Many freshmen around had heard of White Demon as soon as they enrolled. Of course, that’s because many people advised them not to join White Demon’s association. Divine Wind Academy is known for its free educational style and never interferes with student-organized associations. However, this Demon Clan Association is quite unique among the various associations within Divine Wind Academy. All members of the Demon Clan Association are self-proclaimed demons and their style is generally unrestrained. They behave a bit better within Sin City, but once out of Sin City, their true nature is revealed. Being targeted by such an organization means you either join them or get prepared to be bullied. Despite the rule in Divine Wind Academy prohibiting conflicts between students from the same academy, members of the Demon Clan Association have countless ways to make you fail your external missions. Failing a mission means no Academic Points, and no Academic Points means your cultivation gets left far behind. "White Demon, don’t go too far." A murderous aura began to seep out of Ling Feng. "Hey, hey, fancy a competition on the stage? If Long Yi was here I might be a bit scared of you guys, but you, Ling Feng, are no match for me." White Demon said arrogantly, Long Yi being the second on Heavenly List certainly isn’t his match, but facing Ling Feng, he doesn’t fall behind at all. "How about it? I’ll give you an opportunity to join our Demon Clan Association." White Demon said with interest, looking at Mu Can. Just returned to Divine Wind Academy and heard there’s a super-talented new student, even taken in as a disciple by the dean. So he hurried over to see if he could recruit this person into his own Demon Clan. "What if I refuse?" Mu Can was utterly disgusted, he just wanted to develop quietly within Divine Wind Academy. Not having any desire for trouble, yet trouble found him. "Do you know what refusing our Demon Clan’s invitation entails?" White Demon chuckled darkly, looking coldly at Mu Can. "Pah, who do you think you are, get lost!" Right after Mu Can said this, everyone around was stunned, doubting their own ears. Someone actually dared to curse White Demon to his face, he is after all the sixth on Heavenly List, definitely a powerhouse in Wuwei Realm. A powerhouse of Wuwei Realm could well be a teacher in Divine Wind Academy. Did Mu Can just curse someone on the Heavenly List?
