89: A lucky boy, a surprise

Mo Fan arrived at the Outer Sect plaza well ahead of time.

He thought he had come early, but upon reaching the plaza, he found that quite a few people were already standing around in small groups.

He found an inconspicuous corner to stand in and took out his phone, tapping on it aimlessly.

Although he wasn't socially anxious like Xu Jing, he didn't particularly enjoy initiating conversations with strangers either.

When there were no acquaintances around, he preferred to stay by himself.

However, after a short while, a thin figure with an ordinary appearance walked over.

Mo Fan was surprised and glanced at him.

He remembered this guy.

It was Li Dong, the invigilator from the written examination half a month ago. He possessed the cultivation of the Eighth Layer of Innate Realm and could be considered a strong expert.

Moreover, this guy had a solid foundation of Pill Dao knowledge and was considered one of the important figures for this Spirit Medicine collection mission.

Mo Fan was a bit confused.

Why was this guy walking towards him?

"Hello, Junior Brother Mo!" Li Dong walked over with an excited expression, reaching out his hand as if to pat Mo Fan on the shoulder.

"Hiss—" Mo Fan was startled and took a step back.

This guy... he wasn't quite normal, right?

"Uh—"

Seeing Mo Fan retreat, Li Dong paused for a moment. After realizing the reason, he quickly said:

"Junior Brother Mo, you are too strong! You actually got a perfect score on the last exam paper and it only took you less than forty minutes. It's simply incredible!"

"But where have you been these past few days? Why haven't you returned to your residence?"

Li Dong's expression was excited, and his body was even trembling slightly.

After the exam results came out, he had rushed to find Mo Fan, wanting to recruit the other party into the Pill Dao Hall.

Unfortunately, although he had managed to find Mo Fan's residence, he had waited there for half a month without seeing Mo Fan.

He had even suspected that something had happened to Mo Fan and had the urge to report it to the academy.

He was still worried this morning about whether Mo Fan would show up.

Now that he had successfully seen him, he naturally couldn't help but get excited.

"Didn't return to my residence? You've been looking for me all these days?" Mo Fan grew even more puzzled.

What on earth did this guy want?

"Yes, yes, yes! I have been looking for you!"

Quickly, he seemed to have realized something and hurriedly explained:

"Don't misunderstand. I just saw that Junior Brother Mo has a solid foundation in Pill Dao knowledge and wanted to recruit you into the Pill Dao Hall!"

"There is still some time left, why don't we go register and fill out an application form?"

Hearing this, Mo Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Li Dong with a look of disdain.

You should have said so earlier! So you wanted to recommend me to join the Pill Dao Hall!

You started getting touchy-feely the moment you arrived; I thought you were lusting after my good looks!

That was terrifying...

While complaining internally, Mo Fan shook his head and said:

"I am very sorry, I have my own life plan, and I cannot join the Pill Dao Hall for the time being."

"Ah?" Li Dong was dumbfounded, his face full of confusion.

With such great talent, why wouldn't he want to join the Pill Dao Hall?

In time, it would be possible for him to become a mid-tier Alchemist, or even a high-tier Alchemist.

Just then, a mellow voice rang out.

"Li Dong, I told you before, Mo Fan will not agree to join the Pill Dao Hall."

"If he wanted to join the Pill Dao Hall, with his talent, he would have joined long ago. Does he need you to recommend him?"

Mo Fan followed the voice and immediately saw a tall, burly youth with short-cropped hair, wearing a black training suit, and sharp eyes walking over.

Mo Fan also had an impression of him.

Xu Wei, an Inner Sect Disciple of the Pill Dao Hall, one of the team leaders this time.

He was a great expert with a cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Fifth Level.

"Sigh, Junior Brother Mo, can you tell me why you are unwilling to join the Alchemy Hall?" Li Dong was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

Before Mo Fan could answer, Xu Wei said:

"You can't figure this out? Mo Fan naturally wants to put all his energy into the martial Dao."

"He has extraordinary martial Dao talent and has great prospects for the future, so naturally, he doesn't want to waste time researching other things."

"So that's it—" Li Dong suddenly realized.

He naturally knew about the practical assessment that day.

Mo Fan, with his Body Tempering cultivation, killed Zhao Yong, who was at the Fourth Layer of Innate Realm, with a single punch.

Hearing from Xu Wei, this guy had mastered the Vajra Fist!

Li Dong knew how difficult the Vajra Fist was to Cultivate.

Anyone who could master the Vajra Fist must have excellent talent on the path of martial Dao and might become a big shot in the future.

With such martial Dao talent, there were only a few in the entire Outer Sect.

Since Mo Fan had his own pursuits, Li Dong naturally wouldn't force him anymore.

Just then, Xu Wei shouted:

"Let's go, it's time to assemble, we can almost set off. Li Dong, Junior Sister Zhao seems to be looking for you."

"Junior Sister Zhao? Alright!" As soon as Li Dong heard the words "Junior Sister Zhao," he hurriedly ran off, overjoyed.

After Li Dong ran off, Xu Wei sneaked over, approached Mo Fan, and lowered his voice:

"Big boss, please guide me!"

"Huh?" Mo Fan was completely confused.

"Teach me to practice the Vajra Fist!" Xu Wei couldn't help but say excitedly.

Mo Fan frowned and said truthfully: "This thing depends on talent. Even if I teach you, you might not be able to comprehend it."

"You don't need to worry about that. I just want to try. I learned it for a year back then and didn't learn it. I want to see where I am lacking!" Xu Wei said firmly.

Mo Fan's brows knitted together, and he hesitated.

It wasn't that he was unwilling to teach.

As fellow disciples, it was fine to help out.

It was just that teaching this thing was too troublesome.

Moreover, cultivating Martial Skills relied mostly on talent.

It wasn't that just because he was willing to teach, the other party would be able to learn it.

Seeing Mo Fan knitting his brows, Xu Wei seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly said:

"Don't worry, I won't let you teach for free, I can pay!"

Hearing this, Mo Fan was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "What kind of payment?"

"What do you need? Medicinal Pills, Spirit Stones, Cultivation Technique, Martial Skill, or money? I can provide any of them!" Xu Wei said.

"How many Spirit Stones do you have?" Mo Fan said calmly.

"223!" Xu Wei said without thinking.

He had just counted them last night.

This was what he had been saving up stingily, not willing to use them in his daily life, preparing to use them to break through to the Foundation Establishment Sixth Level after his cultivation was polished enough.

"How many Spirit Stones are you willing to give me?" Mo Fan asked again.

"Uh—" Xu Wei paused.

After hesitating for a long while, he gritted his teeth and said: "I will keep 23 for my daily cultivation, and give you the remaining 200. If you think it's not enough, I can also give you some Medicinal Pills!"

Breaking through his cultivation was certainly important!

But for a fist fanatic, if he could learn the Vajra Fist, he would be willing to go bankrupt!

"Fine, deal. 200 Spirit Stones, I don't want your Medicinal Pills." Mo Fan beamed with joy.

What an unexpected joy!

Such a cute and generous Senior Brother.

Give me another dozen!

"Take it!" Xu Wei immediately took out a Brocade Pouch and stuffed it into Mo Fan's hand.

Mo Fan didn't count it. The moment he put it in his pocket, he quietly stowed it away into the system space.

"Let's go, let's go, it's time to assemble. You move with me later, it'll be convenient for us to communicate."

After saying this, Xu Wei turned and walked towards the crowd.

"Alright." Mo Fan followed him.

Since he had taken the money, he would resolve the trouble for him.

For the next half a month, he would do his best to teach Xu Wei.
