Chapter 56

After the regular class meeting of Class 3, Ye Wei tidied up briefly and, under the guidance of his mentor, stepped into the Qianlong Academy under the hazy moonlight.

The Qianlong Academy was densely wooded, with a winding path of green stone, creating a very tranquil atmosphere.

As a student of the Nansheng Academy's genius class, Ye Wei no longer needed to stay in his original dormitory. Male students of the genius class all lived in the Qianlong Academy, while female students lived in the Qingluan Academy.

Because Ye Wei was the only direct disciple of Master Yi, the upper management of the academy specially arranged an elegant small building for him... a standalone building similar to Lin Ziyuan's dormitory in the Qingluan Academy!

In the entire Nansheng Academy, the number of students qualified to live in a standalone building could be counted on one hand. Apart from the top three students in the entire Nansheng Academy, only the mysterious Lin Ziyuan and Ye Wei received this special treatment.

"Once, I dreamed of having a dormitory in the Nansheng Academy... Now, not only have I moved into the Qianlong Academy, but I also have my own standalone building!"

"The twists of fate are truly unpredictable!" Standing in the luxuriously decorated hall, stepping on the precious beast skin carpet, Ye Wei couldn't help but sigh and reflect.

"There are thirty-six students in the Nansheng Academy's genius class, each one an outstanding genius. Some are younger than me, and some have already entered the Warrior realm! My cultivation is merely at the Fourth Star Apprentice level, far behind the elites of the genius class... After being at the bottom of Class 3 for three years, I don't want to be at the bottom of the genius class."

"Everyone in the genius class is an elite; I must work even harder to have a chance of catching up with them!" Ye Wei slowly clenched his fists, his eyes shining with determination.

"My cultivation lags far behind the students in the genius class. Now that I'm in the genius class, it will be difficult to keep up with their progress. I can't make things difficult for my mentor just because I'm Master Yi's disciple."

"I'll temporarily not join the genius class and focus on cultivation. I'll wait until I reach the Seventh Star Apprentice level before joining!" Ye Wei made up his mind and, after a brief moment of contemplation, stepped onto the stairs with intricate carvings and slowly walked to the cultivation room on the second floor. He swallowed a Flame Sun Body Refinement Pill and began to cultivate.

Ye Wei's mental sea talent was still the worst, at the Red level, and his speed of absorbing primordial energy was excruciatingly slow. Without taking pills, Ye Wei had no hope of reaching the Fifth Star Apprentice level within three to five years.

With poor talent, he could only rely on a large amount of pills to forcibly elevate his cultivation to the Seventh Star Apprentice level!

Fortunately, the Ye family received 1.6 million silver coins as compensation from the Du family, Zhou Wu, and Dong He. With this money, Ye Wei didn't have to worry about resources.

Ye Wei began to cultivate even harder than before, continuously consuming and refining pills while continuously refining his mental sea!

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.

During these seven days, Ye Wei exhausted the Flame Sun Body Refinement Pills given to him by Lin Ziyuan, but the three green threads under his skin had increased to three!

When the green threads reached ten, forming a curtain, Ye Wei would be a Fifth Star Apprentice.

"The Flame Sun Body Refinement Pill is indeed the best body refinement pill. Its effects are astonishing. In just seven days, my cultivation has improved significantly. Although I haven't reached the Fifth Star Apprentice level, I'm not far from advancing!" Sitting cross-legged, Ye Wei slowly opened his eyes and clenched his fists, the three green threads under his skin clearly visible.

"If I had enough Flame Sun Body Refinement Pills, I could definitely reach the Fifth Star Apprentice level within a month. Unfortunately... the Flame Sun Body Refinement Pill isn't something that can be bought with money."

"The Ye family isn't short of money, but we can't buy the Flame Sun Body Refinement Pill. We can only buy pills with inferior effects." Ye Wei shook his head helplessly, slowly stood up, and, with the Flame Sun Body Refinement Pills used up, he could only use ordinary body refinement pills.

"I wonder how Ziyuan is doing..." After several days of intense cultivation, Ye Wei's mind once again conjured up the image of that beautiful girl.

Looking at the sky outside, it was already close to evening. Ye Wei stood up and walked in the direction of the Qingluan Academy.

Once again, he arrived at the Qingluan Academy, walking along the path through the greenery.

It was just after school, and some female students were returning to the Qingluan Academy one after another.

When they saw Ye Wei, their gazes all focused on him.

"Isn't that the boy who has been pursuing Yiner? After being humiliated by Yiner several times, he still has the nerve to come here?" A girl with braids immediately showed a look of disdain.

"Shh! Haven't you heard?" The girl next to her quickly stopped her from continuing.

"Heard what?"

"You really are out of the loop! It's said that this boy has very strong mental perception talent and has been taken as the only direct disciple by Master Yi!" The other girl looked at Ye Wei with admiration.

"Really? Is that true?" The girl with braids found it hard to believe. Being the only direct disciple of Master Yi was such a prestigious identity!

"Of course it's true! He now has his own independent courtyard in the Qianlong Academy, just like those few people!"

"Yiner is so lucky. If she became his girlfriend, she would definitely have her own independent courtyard too." The girl with braids showed a look of envy.

However, the other girls' faces showed strange expressions.

"I heard that Yiner's father went to his house to propose, but was refused on the spot!"

"Thinking about it, such an excellent young man, after being humiliated by Yiner so many times, he definitely wouldn't want to be with her anymore!"

"Then why is he coming to the Qingluan Academy?"

"He must be looking for Lin Ziyuan. Only a girl like her can match him!"

The girls chattered, and a few who thought they were quite attractive couldn't resist the urge to approach Ye Wei and greet him.

A girl with long, flowing hair walked up to Ye Wei, waved at him, and smiled seductively, "You're Ye Wei, right?"

Ye Wei's gaze fell on the girl in front of him. She was wearing a white silk dress, with a rather sexy figure, but compared to Lin Ziyuan, she seemed rather ordinary. He responded indifferently, "Yes, what do you want?"

Seeing Ye Wei's cold response, the girl laughed awkwardly, "My friends and I want to invite you to go out and play. Do you have time?" She pointed to a distance where a few girls were standing together, looking at Ye Wei shyly. Those girls were quite charming.

"Sorry, I don't have time!" Ye Wei shook his head and walked past her.

The girls stood there, stunned, watching Ye Wei walk away.

"Who would have thought that the Ye Wei with only a Red-level mental sea would have such astonishing mental perception talent and become Master Yi's direct disciple!"

"Yiner must be regretting it to death now, right?"

As the girls chattered, a tall girl in the distance quietly watched Ye Wei walk toward Lin Ziyuan's residence. Two tears rolled down her beautiful face. This girl was Qiao Yiner. After returning from school, she happened to see Ye Wei, but now, she didn't even have the courage to greet him.

Qiao Yiner was indeed very regretful, but some people, once lost, can never be found again.
