232: Chapter 232 Another half-month of confinement in the valley? Get out!
"After half a month in Confinement Valley, that kid should have repented by now..."
"That's a given! At his level, he can't possibly withstand the spiritual erosion in Confinement Valley. After half a month, he's bound to be docile."
"Didn't he seem quite eager before going in? I want to see what expression he has now."
"Hahaha, alright, alright, stop having fun at a junior's expense."
Above the Steel Plains.
Several Law Enforcement Personnel from the Discipline Department were chatting and laughing while opening the entrance.
These were the same Law Enforcement Personnel who had sent Li Fan in previously.
They were aware of many of Li Fan's previous circumstances.
Li Fan's composure and anticipation before entering had left a deep impression on all of them.
After all, they had sent many people in, but they rarely encountered someone like Li Fan.
Not far away, Cang Hai was frowning slightly as he looked towards the entrance.
Now, half a month had passed.
Who knows what state Li Fan was in after being tormented?
Would he still be capable of participating in the New Student Competition half a month later?
Soon.
As the Steel Plains fully opened.
The entire entrance was revealed before the group.
Looking down, the group did not see Li Fan's figure.
No one found this strange; in fact, they thought it was perfectly normal.
Li Fan was most likely still hiding within the building complex, suffering spiritual torment.
"Li Fan, you can come out now!"
One of the Law Enforcement Personnel shouted towards the surface-level building complex.
As soon as the words fell.
A response came from a single-story house within the building complex.
"Coming!"
Immediately after.
Li Fan leaped up, stepping out calmly and steadily along the exit stairs.
Seeing Li Fan's appearance.
The several Law Enforcement Personnel and Cang Hai were all stunned on the spot.
The Li Fan before them was radiant, full of vitality, and his posture was as steady as Mount Tai!
There wasn't the slightest sign of him having been tormented!
What was even more outrageous was that the aura emanating from Li Fan was stronger than before he entered!
This was truly unbelievable!
It completely contradicted their previous expectations!
"You... are you alright?"
One Law Enforcement Personnel, looking at Li Fan who had already reached the entrance, couldn't help but frown and ask tentatively.
In response, Li Fan scratched his head and said with a smile,
"Not bad, not bad. Apart from the air being a bit stuffy, everything else is fine."
"Thank you for your concern, seniors!"
This answer truly made the corners of the Law Enforcement Personnel's mouths twitch.
He was the one in the best mental state among all the people they had ever seen come out of Confinement Valley!
Could it be that Li Fan's Mental Energy was also so strong that it could withstand the spiritual erosion on the surface?
But that shouldn't be the level a normal Star-Treading Level should have, right?
"Li Fan, you!"
Cang Hai, standing to the side, looked at Li Fan's condition and the aura he exuded, his eyes also filled with disbelief.
Of course, there was even more pleasant surprise!
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Good!"
Cang Hai couldn't help but utter 'good' three times in a row. When he looked at Li Fan again, his eyes were full of admiration.
Li Fan's strength seemed even more exaggerated than he had imagined!
And now he also realized why Li Fan had previously asked him if the cosmic primordial energy inside was dense or not.
So Li Fan had treated this place as a secluded cultivation site!
What was outrageous was that it seemed Li Fan had actually succeeded in his secluded cultivation!
Looking at it this way.
He had worried for nothing before!
There were still half a month left for Li Fan to cultivate.
Li Fan could fully adjust his condition to its peak.
Whether he could steadily break into the top ten in the end might still be uncertain.
But at the very least, he could give his all and have no regrets.
Just as Cang Hai was looking at Li Fan with emotion.
Li Fan's gaze turned to the several Law Enforcement Personnel nearby, and he spoke respectfully, "Seniors, I have a request. I wonder if you could agree to it?"
Seeing Li Fan's friendly attitude and his considerable talent, the Law Enforcement Personnel couldn't help but show a hint of appreciation and responded, "Huh? Go ahead and say it first. If it's not too excessive, we can consider it."
"It's very simple. Could you let me extend my stay in Confinement Valley for another half-month?"
"Huh? Get lost, get lost! Are you making fun of us, kid?"
As soon as Li Fan finished speaking.
He caused the faces of the several Law Enforcement Personnel to darken, their anger immediately flaring up.
Extend for another half-month?
What kind of sarcastic remark is this?
Obviously.
From their perspective, Li Fan seemed to be saying to them, "Is this all your Confinement Valley is? I could stay another half-month and be just fine!"
This completely wiped out the favorable impression they had just formed of Li Fan.
"Everyone, everyone, don't be angry. You go back first. I'll send Li Fan back later."
Cang Hai promptly stepped in front of Li Fan, suppressing their anger.
"Old Cang, we're only giving you face here, otherwise..."
...
After closing the Steel Plains, the Law Enforcement Personnel left, cursing under their breath, leaving only Cang Hai and Li Fan standing there.
"You, you... Among all the juniors in the entire academy who dare to tease the people from the Discipline Department like this, you're probably the only one."
Cang Hai looked at Li Fan, both angry and wanting to laugh.
Extend for another half-month? What kind of talk is that?
Treating Confinement Valley like a restaurant?
Li Fan, however, was very helpless and scratched his head, saying:
"Actually, I didn't mean it that way. I really do want to stay for another half-month. The environment inside is very suitable for my cultivation, and I won't be disturbed."
"Lord Cang Hai, do you see any way to get me back in for another half-month? Otherwise, should I go beat up Fang Tong again?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Cang Hai's eyes widened, and the corner of his mouth twitched violently.
Hearing Li Fan say he was planning to beat up Fang Tong again, he finally couldn't take it anymore.
"Stop, stop, stop! Just stop right there!"
"Forget about staying in Confinement Valley for another half-month anytime soon."
"Also, regarding Fang Tong, whatever you do, don't provoke him recently. Last time you beat him up like that, it was already very lenient of the Discipline Department not to expel you. If you violate the rules again and actively provoke trouble, that would be challenging the Discipline Department. You would absolutely be expelled, and no one could protect you!"
Listening to Cang Hai's words.
Li Fan's face visibly fell with disappointment.
In that case.
It seemed a bit unlikely to extend for another half-month.
Perhaps he could only wait until after the New Student Competition and after comprehending the enlightenment stele to have another chance.
By that time, he would be a Formal Student.
And once he became a Formal Student, it would be very difficult to get expelled.
At that time, if he violated the academy rules again, his chances of entering Confinement Valley would be much greater.
"Alright, I'll take you back now."
"Same as before, during this time, cultivate diligently and cause less trouble."
As he spoke, Cang Hai prepared to send Li Fan back to the dormitory area.
