C70 siege

Seeing that Di Chen had returned a little late, Yang Mengqi asked: "What took you so long?"

Di Chen explained, "Just now, I saw an acre of Snow Seaweed that was not watered by anyone, and was successfully watered."

Yang Mengqi was also stunned, and quickly asked: "How much water did you pour over?"

Di Chen said calmly: "One stalk of four milliliters."

Yang Mengqi let out a sigh of relief after hearing Di Chen's words, but then revealed a curious look on his face. "How did you know to pour four milliliters of water on a plant?

It was not common to find snow grass, and only the Thousand Monster Mountain had some wild snow grass. It was very difficult to survive and one couldn't make the slightest of mistakes when planting the snow grass artificially, so when they saw that Di Chen had actually poured water over it, they couldn't help but be a little curious.

Di Chen shook his head: "I have a friend who is a physician, who specializes in medicine, healing, and alchemy, and is also very familiar with these spirit flowers and herbs. Previously, she and I also found a Snow Seaweed in Thousand Monster Mountain, she told me how to take care of it."

Yang Mengqi suddenly realized something, and thought for a while: has very few pharmacists nowadays, I never thought you would know another one, judging from your tone, she seems to be quite knowledgeable, if there's a chance, bring it over for me to see, if it's suitable, then let her stay, although I have you and Yuan Tong's help here, but sometimes I still can't get over it, and I don't have time to slowly teach you guys.

There were many doctors in the imperial government, and there were many among the citizens. They could cure illnesses, but they did not know the art of pill refining, so doctors had to be able to refine pills, refine medicines, cultivate Spirit Grass, and other such things.

True physicians had a very high status in the Martial Region Continent, and warriors were easy to obtain. However, it was very rare for doctors to meet, as the Sky Realm Academy had a class that groomed doctors, with many talented people, but very few were able to become true doctors.

"Yes, teacher," Di Chen's face revealed a happy expression, he knew that Qin Suer had learned medicine from a young age, but the problem was that she was still a teacher and did not know much about medicine, she still needed to learn, but her father had been persecuted by some officials of the imperial government and she had no way to learn anything. This Yang Mengqi was a doctor, if Qin Suer knew, he would definitely be very happy.

"Oh right," Yang Mengqi reminded him, "You just came, so you don't know how to take care of these spirit flowers and herbs. If you don't know anything in the future, you can ask Yuan Tong.

"Yes," Di Chen said as he bowed. He knew that Yuan Tong had picked him up and had been learning about medicine from Yang Mengqi, but in reality, he was not actually Sky Realm Academy's disciple.

After a while, Yuan Tong returned with a water bucket. He was relatively short, and wore very wide clothes. His face was young and tender, with a straight face, like that of a young adult.

Yuan Tong looked at Di Chen with disgust. This was because he had lived together with Yang Mengqi since he was young, and did not like to be disturbed by outsiders.

Yang Mengqi knew what Yuan Tong was thinking, and did not try to persuade him further, saying: "Yuan Tong, the Scarlet Purple Fruit to the west should be ripe by now, bring Di Chen to pick it."

Yuan Tong was a little unhappy, he picked up a basket and walked towards the west without saying a word. Di Chen did not understand why he hated himself, but he did not mind either, taking the basket and following him, after a few minutes, he arrived at the west side of the Scarlet and Purple Orchid Garden. There were around ten or so Scarlet Purple Fruit Trees planted here, and the fruits were about the size of a fingernail, giving off a light fragrance.

"After picking the fruits, wrap them in the leaves. This way, the fruits will be fresh and not lose their spirituality."

Yuan Tong snappily reminded them as he began to pick the fruits.

Di Chen did not immediately make his move. He first watched for a while before he began to pick the fruit.

In the end, Yuan Tong did not hold back and asked: "Why don't you go to other classes to study, and instead come here instead? It's not like this place is suitable for warriors to cultivate."

Di Chen did not expect Yuan Tong to suddenly ask this, and said calmly: "This is what the Principal had instructed, I don't know what he meant either."

Yuan Tong said anxiously: "Then go and apply to leave this place with the Principal."

Di Chen said in a daze: "I don't have the qualifications to see the Principal, so how can I apply for it? And since the Principal has his own reasons for doing so, why would he let me leave?"

Yang Mengqi was not a scholar, but Di Chen did not understand much about Spirit Grass s and strange flowers, nor did he want to be a doctor. He did not understand why the Principal arranged for him to come here to cultivate, but since he had decided to do so for a reason and Di Chen had no way to apply to leave, the Principal would naturally not agree.

Yuan Tong said angrily: "I don't care, you can't stay here anyways. It's enough with Big Sister Qi and I here, you don't need anyone else."

Di Chen noticed that he called Yang Mengqi big sister Qi, but considering his age, he would have to call her auntie. He couldn't help but be curious in his heart, seems like Yuan Tong's feelings for Yang Mengqi was different, no wonder he didn't want him to stay behind, it seems that he was afraid that he would disturb them. Yuan Tong was young, and had a lot of small intentions.

Di Chen laughed, and did not say anything, he continued to pluck the fruits, Yuan Tong looked at him hatefully, and then retracted his gaze, Di Chen knew that he would not give up, and thought that unlike Huang Zhan and Ai Yeshi, Di Chen could not possibly use force to take care of a child, and that he would be in trouble in the future.

A few hours later, the two of them had picked all the fruits before returning with the basket on their backs.

When Yang Mengqi saw the expressions of the two, he knew that they had gotten into a dispute and did not try to persuade them further, "Di Chen, take this basket of Vermillion Purple Fruits to the Wind Cry Pavilion."

These points had a wide range of uses, and could be exchanged for pills, weapons, cultivation techniques, etc. Thus, in most academies when they had free time, they would think of ways to complete some missions in exchange for some corresponding things. For example, in the past, there would be people who would go to Yang Mengqi's place to help take care of the medicinal garden, which was why the points they could be exchanged for, but it was not easy to earn points.

"Yes," Di Chen carried the basket of Scarlet Purple Fruits and headed in the direction of the Wind Cry Pavilion!

"Yi, isn't that the new student Di Chen who had fought with Li Caishi until both sides were injured?"

"It's him. I heard that he is very close to Shang Yu. I wonder what their relationship is?"

"Don't you know? I heard that Di Chen and Shang Yu grew up together, and the two of them are engaged to each other even though they are very young. This Di Chen is Shang Yu's fiance."

"What?" Shang Yu actually had a fiance? What qualifications does this Di Chen have to become Shang Yu's fiance? "

Many people on the road saw Di Chen, and recognized him as well. Firstly, it was because Di Chen's performance was truly shocking, and there were not many people who could injure and suppress Li Caishi's cultivation, and secondly, it was because of the relationship between Di Chen and Shang Yu that they had attracted others' attention.

Wherever Di Chen went, he could hear others discussing his relationship with Shang Yu. He was speechless, he never thought that so many people would know about it, he also knew that it was definitely Cao Fei who said it, he would really cause trouble for him.

Di Chen acted like he did not hear the discussions of the others, and continued to walk in the direction of the Howling Wind Pavilion, about ten minutes later, he saw five people walking towards him, one of them was Ai Yeshi and the other one was Ai Yeshi, they had already broken through to the fifth stage of Life Seizing, and the other three were probably between the sixth and seventh stage, from the looks of their eyes, they did not seem to have any good intentions, Di Chen thought that he was in deep trouble now.

"Di Chen," Ai Yeshi blocked Di Chen's path, and laughed: "What a coincidence, I never thought we would meet again so soon."

Di Chen glanced at Ai Yeshi but did not say anything. He went around him and prepared to leave.

"Don't go," Ai Yeshi stepped in front of Di Chen to stop him, and laughed: "I told you back in Hong Huang City that we still want to meet again. It wasn't easy for us to reminisce about the past, why are you running so fast."

Di Chen shook his head and replied, "I need to deliver this to the Wind Cry Pavilion and report this back quickly. I don't have time to waste here with you."

He might not have the time, but Jin Rui would not think that way, and laughed: "Hey Di Chen, you were previously so arrogant in Hong Huang City, how are you going to submit now, this does not suit your character at all."

Then, he looked at a tall man beside him and said, "A Xiang, this is the dark horse Di Chen from yesterday. His fame has even surpassed Jiang You's and Fang Xin's."

He was an old student here and was the strongest amongst them. He looked at Di Chen from head to toe and said playfully, "So you are that Di Chen, I heard that you injured Senior Sister Li Caishi yesterday, but why didn't I feel a trace of Origin Energy in your body? Tell me, what despicable method did you use to injure Senior Sister Li Caishi?"

"It must be because Senior Sister Li Caishi was careless, this guy is really despicable, she took the chance while Senior Sister Cai Shi was careless to injure her, and even made it seem like he has great talent," said another petite fifteen to sixteen year old girl. This girl is called Xia Lan, an expert in the life seizing six stages, she admired Li Caishi and had always viewed her as her target, thus she was a little angry when she heard that Di Chen had injured Li Caishi.

Not everyone had seen yesterday's competition, and many people instinctively doubted that Di Chen had injured Li Caishi. They guessed that Di Chen had used some kind of dark method, or perhaps Li Caishi had been careless, so many of the older students did not think that Di Chen was that powerful.

Di Chen could tell that these people were deliberately looking for trouble. If it was before, he would have already made his move, but now, in Sky Realm Academy, there were experts everywhere, and it was not a good thing to offend too many people.

Another man stopped Di Chen in his tracks, and said with an unfriendly tone: "I heard that you're Shang Yu's fianc?, what qualifications do you have to become Shang Yu's fianc??"

This man was called Yu Hai, and was one of the people who admired Shang Yu. After knowing the relationship between Di Chen and Shang Yu, he somewhat hated Di Chen.
