The new disciples of the holy moon palace were now gathered in a courtyard that was in the courtyard of the academy.
The 4 master teachers had stood in front of the new students, the academy leader along with elder Tao Bao and elder Zi Zhi had come over to the 4 master teachers.
"Please all the teachers to choose each student to be guided, in martial techniques as well as how to concoct and pill-making" said the head of the academy.
So the 4 teachers also chose the student to be guided, but it was unlucky for Nien Chu and Zeng Yi's daughter, because none of the teachers would be willing to recruit him to become a student.
While the two of them were being discouraged, elder Zi Zhi had instead chosen the two of them as disciples, and only then did Nien Chu and princess Zeng Yi feel happy.
Flashbacks
The head of the academy, elder Tao Bao and elder Zi Zhi held a closed meeting that only the three of them attended.
"Right now for decades we haven't found a genius student, and I want Nien Chu to be specially dealt with to become an Alchemist who can scent the name of the Academy Palace throughout the entire empire, and for that I will leave that responsibility to you elder Zi Zhi to guide Nien Chu," the academy's chairman said.
"I will definitely make Nien Chu a cultivator, as well as a great Alchemist in the future chief," replied elder Zi Zhi.
"Chairman, if Nien Chu were to learn on his own with elder Zi Zhi, it would be a suspicion for all the new disciples present, it could be that the entire new disciples that were there were responding to the growing issue if Nien Chu had indeed been cheating to pass the pill refining exam, though, and I think we should find a new disciple who can become a practicing friend of Nien Chu," said elder Tao Bao.
"Which elder Zi Zhi do you think?" ask the Academy president.
"I think the advice that Taoist elder Bao gave us is correct, we should indeed find a new disciple to be Nien Chu's friend in training, and I have one candidate for that," replied elder Zi Zhi.
"Who is the name of the new student you mean?" ask the Taoist elder Bao.
"Daughter Zeng Yi, besides being intelligent she also currently has a closeness with Nien Chu, and I think she deserves to be Nien Chu's friend in training," replied elder Zi Zhi.
"Alright, we have agreed together if it is princess Zeng Yi who will be Nien Chu's friend in training, then, and I want 4 guidance teachers no one can choose Nien Chu and princess Zeng Yi, because the two students will be trained directly by elder Zi Zhi" the academy's head said.
"The chief should not worry about it, leave all these matters to me" said elder Tao?.
*****
Nien Chu and princess Zeng Yi have now officially become disciples of elder Zi Zhi nicknamed the Purple Poison Queen, and they both now reside in the elder's residence.
In a room the three of them sat together, and elder Zi Zhi said something important to the two disciples.
But the amount of treasure contained in the sky pavilion, was comparable to the danger that would be faced if it were there.
There are many spirit animals that were once the pet of the emperor, there, and the flattened star spirit beast had possessed strength at level 9 and there was also one ancient spirit beast that was said to have been at level 10, with the form of a lightning-horned dragon.
I want the two of you to increase your strength for an entire month, in order to compete with the other disciples in obtaining the treasure," elder Zi Zhi said.
"We will definitely train diligently master, and we will definitely not disappoint you" Nien Chu said.
After the talk of the day, Nien Chu and princess Zeng Yi increasingly showed progress in strength levels, besides that the two of them were also slowly able to learn how to concoct medicinal pills and pill making, and of course seeing the progress of his two students so rapidly, making elder Zi Zhi very hopeful if in the future they can both become a qualified and powerful cultivator.
On one occasion, elder Zi Zhi called out to his two disciples
because there are important things to tell both.
"There are 1 week left for the two of you to go enter the sky pavilion, and tomorrow is the time for you to get new energy in the blood lake contained within the palace forest of the Holy Moon Academy.
In the next week you two must take advantage of the existing situation, by cultivating in the lake.
Remember the deeper you go into the lake, the greater you will get the pure energy from the blood lake, but if you feel a sense of rejection then stop to continue to enter the middle of the lake, if it is you two force it then by itself the energy in the blood lake will damage both of you Dantian," said elder Zi Zhi.
"The two of us will definitely follow all the instructions from the teacher, by not forcing ourselves to enter the middle of the blood lake in case of rejection from him," Nien Chu replied.
After talking for a while, it was time for them to rest.
The next morning the 25 new disciples were now entering the forbidden forest within the territory of the palace of the holy month academy, the Taoist chairman Bao who was the in charge of the 25 new disciples, the, immediately opened the gate towards the blood lake.
"Come in, take this week to make you stronger, by meditating in the lake of blood.
"If all of you have trouble in this lake of blood which is indeed a collection of all the energies that are in the territory of the living light empire, then break this gemstone that I will give you, to be able to get out easily from within the blood lake," said elder Tao Bao.
"Okay teacher, we will all remember what you have said to us" said Wang Tianyang representing all of the academy's new students.
