Seeing that the two instructors were about to start arguing again, Lu Jing helplessly looked at Professor Zheng beside him, originally hoping that he would come forward to mediate.
But unexpectedly, Professor Zheng did come forward, but it completely added fuel to the fire. While the two colleagues were arguing, he said to Lu Jing.
"Whether it's talismans or magical artifacts, they are all external things. A cultivator's true reliance is still on spells. Well, if we talk about the cultivation of spells, I am naturally not as good as Professor Deng, but I have some spells that even he doesn't know. If you are willing to be my disciple, I can teach you all these spells, and I can also guide your mystic power cultivation."
The two instructors were furious when they heard this. They hadn't decided the winner yet, but they didn't expect Zheng to steal their home.
Moreover, it would be fine if Professor Zheng just spoke up, but Professor Cui, who teaches knowledge about strange objects, shamelessly joined in, "You can also consider following me. I can give you some very practical strange objects."
Of course, the four of them knew that they were being too eager, even a little embarrassing, but they were so anxious for a reason.
Lu Jing's perfect foundation establishment was too enviable. It was the only one in the history of cultivation. If they missed this village, there would basically be no next shop. In addition, the four of them realized that today was their best opportunity.
Because only the four of them were present when Lu Jing completed the foundation establishment test, it could be considered that they were the first to get the moon near the water. If they waited a few more days, until the other instructors of the academy knew, there would only be more people snatching him, and their chances would be even smaller.
Professor Zheng was really anxious this time.
He wanted to accept Lu Jing as a disciple not only because he valued Lu Jing's aptitude, but also because he wanted to further understand the legendary perfect foundation establishment, do more research in this area, further his understanding of mystic power, and maybe even write books to benefit future generations, which would not be in vain in this life.
"Sword control." Lu Jing uttered three words and showed the flying sword hidden in his sleeve.
"Sword control? Where did you learn it?" Professor Cui was stunned.
"Oh, this set of sword control is called Clear Light Moon Shadow Sword. Senior Gu Zhongling passed it on to me when I was in Another Heaven and Earth," Lu Jing said.
Hearing him say this, many people subconsciously wanted to refute him, telling him that practicing sword control was completely harmful. Although it was amazingly powerful after it was completed, ordinary people might not see any results after working hard for several years, unlike other things that could be used as soon as they were learned.
But on second thought, it might be difficult for others to practice sword control, but for Lu Jing, a freak with perfect foundation establishment, it might be easier than imagined. In three to five years, he might be able to use it to fight enemies, and the power of his sword control would become greater and greater as time went on. Seeing it this way, sword control was really suitable for him.
But even so, these instructors still felt that it was a pity for Lu Jing to only practice sword control, so they persuaded him to practice something else, anyway, he had perfect foundation establishment, so whatever he practiced should be twice the result with half the effort.
Lu Jing couldn't resist the instructors' nagging and could only say that he would consider it carefully later.
In fact, it was not impossible to learn more things, especially since his mystic power was more than the four of them imagined, and it would recover every day, but Lu Jing was really busy recently.
The troubles of mystic power and internal power had to be solved, and he had to find a way to make money to pay off his debts. He really didn't have the time to learn anything else. The four of them persuaded him for a while, and seeing that Lu Jing's attitude was firm, they could only give up reluctantly.
It was not easy to escape from Professor Zheng's courtyard, and Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he ran to Uncle Chen to collect the three thousand taels of errand money he had been thinking about.
Then he looked at the sky, and seeing that there was still some time, he went to Mirror Lake Valley again.
He had just protected Dongmen Weilan yesterday, so he didn't need to worry about her. So, Lu Jing went to find Han Shan Ke this time.
The latter's progress in refining the poison pill he had promised to refine for him was surprisingly smooth, which made Lu Jing a little unbelievable. According to Han Shan Ke, he had basically formulated the poison pill that Lu Jing needed.
It was just that the efficacy of the poison pill was still unstable. Sometimes it could work, and sometimes it couldn't, so Han Shan Ke was still adjusting the dosage of various herbs in the prescription in order to achieve final success.
When Lu Jing went to see him last week, Han Shan Ke told him that it would be soon, which made Lu Jing quite excited. Although he had made a series of preparations to become a Second Palace cultivator, it was better not to advance if he could.
Therefore, Lu Jing had been running to Mirror Lake Valley every few days to see how Han Shan Ke's poison pill was being refined and if there was anything he needed help with.
Han Shan Ke was still the same as before, not caring about anything except alchemy. He and A'Bao ate a few taroes for lunch, and most of those taroes went into A'Bao's stomach. Han Shan Ke ate more elegantly and was still chewing, but on the other side, A'Bao had already finished the whole pot.
In the end, Han Shan Ke only ate the two in his hand, but he didn't plan to steam another pot. He finished eating casually and sat by the alchemy furnace again.
Lu Jing and A'Bao, who was beside him, greeted him, and then he couldn't wait to say, "How is it?"
"At the earliest, three or two days, at the latest, four or five days, and you will get what you want," Han Shan Ke said leisurely.
"Really?" Lu Jing was surprised.
"I can't beat you, why would I lie to you? But what do you want to do with this poison pill?" Han Shan Ke asked curiously.
"Um… You were targeted by the people from the Pure Word Guard, but I haven't asked you who you are, have I?"
"This is hard to argue with."
"In short, just help me refine the poison pill as soon as possible. But I have something else to do these two days, so I may have to go out for a while. I'll come to you as soon as I get back."
Han Shan Ke waved his hand when he heard this, "You can go ahead and do your things. I'll be here, I can't run away."
