Chapter #40. The Dumpling Incident

As the noon approached, Tian Fan finished all the notes he had made in the royal library. He and Lien Wei then left the library and prepared to head to General Lien Zhong's residence.

As they exited the royal library, two horse-drawn carriages were waiting for them in the library's courtyard. Tian Fan and Lien Wei were about to step into the carriages when they noticed two young ladies engaged in an argument near the library's exit. The two girls were Sun Jialin and Mei Yin.

Seeing Tian Fan and Lien Wei coming out, the two girls hurriedly approached them.

"Brother-in-law, you've already come out. Let me escort you back home. It happens that I will be visiting my mother, who is currently at General Zhong's residence," Sun Jialin said quickly.

"Let me do it," Mei Yin began to speak but hesitated, "Uh, that is... my parents have asked me to pick up Master and escort him to General Zhong's residence," she said awkwardly.

Lien Wei burst into laughter at t

He knew that they, especially Cao Ren and Shi Shui, probably sensed some irritation due to his recent disappearance.Tian Fan approached the trio and offered a hesitant smile. "Master Cao Ren, Master Shi Shui, Master Dong Fang, congratulations on your advancements," he said sincerely, attempting to ease the awkwardness.Shi Shui stood up from his seat and grabbed Tian Fan firmly by the collar with his left hand, while his right hand pulled Tian Fan's ear with force. "What did you just say, brat? Call me 'elder brother'! Say it! 'Elder brother'!" he scolded with a stern expression while tightening his grip.Tian Fan found it difficult to breathe, not because of the ear-pulling, but because his face was pressed

Not Just PillsIn an open courtyard, Lien Wei instructed the servants and soldiers at General Zhong's residence to create a large pool according to Tian Fan's request.The pool was rectangular, measuring 20 meters in length, 10 meters in width, and 1 meter in depth. It was divided into two halves with a partition in the middle. Due to the involvement of many people, the construction of this minimalistic pool was completed in just four incense sticks' time.Everyone in the hall left the room to witness the process of creating this medicinal pool, as they were curious about Tian Fan's new method."Junior, why didn't you use dantian-cleansing pills to heal Lady Zhu?" Master Dong Fang asked out of curiosity.All eyes turned to Tian Fan, as they had just heard the name of the pills mentioned by Master Dong Fang."Because Lady Zhu has already consumed too many pills, I didn't want to take the risk of adding more burden to her body, even though dantian-cleansing pills could poten

If an ordinary person can lift a weight as heavy as his body, then a black realm cultivator can lift a weight two to three times his body weight.Tian Fan, who was currently at the mid-level earth realm with his strength, could easily lift a weight of 500 kg with one handSo in order to maximize his body strength and realm strength, Tian Fan tried to train using 5 ton weightsThe goal is clear, so that the body's strength and realm strength can be c

Both of his hands gripped the wooden sword's hilt, with the sword sheathed on his left side.Tian Fan's eyes stared straight at his opponent, sharp and focused. He remained motionless, waiting for his opponent to make the first move.Zhang Wei observed Tian Fan's impeccable defensive stance, trying to find an opening. He quickly dashed towards Tian Fan, swinging his wooden sword from the upper right, crossing towards the lower left when the attack's range was ideal.Tian Fan didn't move an inch, and when the wooden sword's blade was only half a finger's length from his neck, he swiftly ducked and pulled his wooden sword, slashing at Zhang Wei's abdomen. He then lunged forward, performing another slash towards Zhang Wei's back.These two sword movements within a quarter of a second were successful, piercing Zhang Wei'

Even representatives from the Eastern Empire are attending this auction. Due to the overwhelming interest, the pavilion reluctantly charges an entry fee for those wanting to participate. However, the high interest prompts many sects and nobles to dig into their pockets for this opportunity. Ten VIP rooms for invited guests have been filled, including one specifically designated for Tian Fan in VIP Room 1. The lotus flower pavilion has finally opened up twenty additional VIP rooms for representatives from middle sects and upper-class nobles. Of course, these come with a considerable cost in gold coins to occupy such VIP spaces. Tian Fan himself arrive

Today was the day for the entrance examination into the Sun Sect.Upon arrival, Tian Fan noticed a large crowd gathered in the field where the selection and entrance examination for the Sun Sect were taking place.With the Earth realm as the minimum requirement for sect discipleship, the number of participants for this selection was still relatively high."Lien Wei, do you know what the selection process entails?" Tian Fan asked."I don't know the details, but as far as I know, the initial selection measures one's realm and bone strength. Afterward, there's a division of disciples within the Sun Sect. There are three levels: outer disciples, inner disciples, and core disciples. Outer disciples are the lowest level, and core disciples are the highest. The higher the level, the greater the benefits. That's all I know," Lien Wei explained

    Chapter #1186. The AgreementAs dawn approached, Tian Fan, Su Zhi, and Sima Yi returned to their gathering point. The three were quite surprised to see both Cao brothers fast asleep, sitting with their backs leaning against each other. Judging from the dirt and bruises all over their bodies, it was clear the two had spent the entire night fighting. Still, what they now saw proved that the conflict between them had likely come to an end.“They don’t look much better than we do,” Su Zhi remarked, noting how her own clothes were just as tattered.Sima Yi gave a dry smile, while Tian Fan chuckled broadly at the comment.“But last night was exciting, this is the first time I’ve ever fought so many beasts like that,” Sima Yi said, and Su Zhi nodded in agreement.Tian Fan merely smiled faintly, then walked over to where Cao Ren and Cao Pi were sleeping. He sat down and found a comfortable position, leaning his back against theirs. Su Zhi and Sima Yi followed his lead and did the same.Now th

The roasted meat of the third rank red serpent beast released an aroma so rich it stung Cao Ren’s nose, instantly stirring the hunger of Cao Pi, Sima Yi, and Su Zhi.The meat glistened as the oils within began to seep out, blending with the spices Tian Fan had sprinkled on top. “Will it take long to be done?” Cao Pi asked, his eyes fixed on the meat roasting by the fire that warmed their night.“Just a little longer,” Tian Fan replied casually.“I didn’t know a prince could drool over the smell of food,” Sima Yi teased Cao Pi, prompting both Cao Pi and Cao Ren to immediately wipe their mouths with their hands.That made Tian Fan and the others burst out laughing, while the two princes could only give a wry smile at their own spontaneous reaction.Not long after, Tian Fan served the roasted serpent meat, seasoned with crushed spirit herbs that released a tantalizin

Cao Pi and the others were truly baffled by Tian Fan’s train of thought, especially when he began making potions after finishing the reinforcement of their weapons.“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it,” said Cao Ren as he looked at the sword in his hand, then at what Tian Fan was currently doing. He added, “Maybe with this, we really have a shot at making it to the final round,” he said seriously.Cao Pi, Sima Yi, and Su Zhi turned to Cao Ren, the expressions in their eyes questioning the statement made by the third prince of the Huo Kingdom.Seeing their looks, Cao Ren quickly spoke again in disbelief. “Haven’t you all thought that far ahead?”“I did think the same,” Cao Pi replied seriously, “I just didn’t dare say it aloud like you did. Besides, what makes you say that?”“Of course him, and everything w

Tian Fan merely gave a faint smile, paying no mind to the tension.Seeing Tian Fan’s expression, Cao Pi spoke up. “Judging by the look on your face, I’d say you’re planning something based on what you just did,” he said seriously.Tian Fan turned to Cao Pi and gave a small smile without saying anything. After a moment, he spoke, directing his words to everyone in his group. “Let’s talk about this later. What matters now is what we’ve planned beforehand,” he said calmly.Soon after, the formation master control

It seems to me that you are being too naïve... I gave them the freedom to choose, and this was the result of their own agreement," Liu Bei replied casually.Dong Zhuo was about to interrupt, but Liu Bei spoke again first. "I believe neither of the two princes is ambitious. They are able to look ahead, act wisely, and most importantly, they have a clear vision and mission.""Just like a king, whose main principle should be wisdom, embracing others and listening to advice, opinions, and suggestions these traits will surely earn them greater respect in the future," he explained, causing some in the room to clearly dislike his words.Only a few responded positively to Liu Bei’s statement, including His Majesty the King and the

Afterwards, each member of the group was allowed to choose a weapon to use, all of which were second grade weapons.The group leader was given three storage rings, each designated for different items: spirit plants, beast body parts, and metal ores. These items were kept separate to maintain their effectiveness and prevent possible damage if stored together.Once the inspection session was complete, the groups were directed to the teleportation diagram, where they would be randomly scattered across the Red Forest region."Choose the weapon you are most comfortable with. I have a few ideas I might use later," Tian Fan said to his group.Immediately, Cao Pi, Cao Re

Why are the rules being changed again?" one student complained angrily as all the groups from the Black Fire Academy gathered in their designated area."Just like life, nothing is certain in this world.

Upon arriving, they assembled and waited in an area specifically designated for their academy.While waiting, Liu Bei observed his students, his gaze focusing on Tian Fan's group, where something seemed different about the members. It was clear from the faces of Cao Pi and Sima Yi that they bore some bruises and had several injuries covered by bandages. Seeing this, he realized that the issue lay with the group leader, and it was most likely resolved in an unconventional way."It seems Fan'er has shown his true self to them, not bad," he thought to himself.Meanwhile, Cao Pi, Cao Ren, and Sima Yi looked awkward after the incident from the previous day.

His teammates were none other than Prince Cao Pi, Prince Cao Ren, Su Zhi, and a student named Sima Yi.The two Caos clearly ranked first and second in the martial division, and Su Zhi, who ranked second in the spell and formation division, clearly indicated that Sima Yi must be the top ranked student in that division.The atmosphere in their group was cold as they gathered for a briefing after the group announcement."Brother Fan, I'm glad we’re in the same group again. With this, I have no worries during the first round," said Su Zhi, breaking the heavy silence."Yes, with this arrangement, I also understand why the academy gathered all the best in one group," Cao Ren chimed in.Cao Pi and Sima Yi, however, remained silent and indifferent, clearly showing their discomfort.Seeing the situation, Tian
