The Dao of alchemy had changed, but such a violent reaction still made her feel uneasy.
The method of directly stabbing a needle into the human body was somewhat similar to acupuncture, but injecting the agent directly into the body was something she couldn’t understand.
Were these elixirs? Although Mu Yanxi knew that even the Dao of alchemy seemed to have changed in this world, such a strong reaction still made her feel that something was wrong.
Shangguan Yun walked over as well, taking an injection from Teacher Wei Dai. As if used to the procedure, she lifted her skirt and stabbed it into her own smooth, firm side buttock.
Unlike the other girls, whose blood energy surged immediately after receiving the injection, accompanied by soft cries, Shangguan Yun showed no obvious reaction.
Although her blood energy increased, she didn’t cry out or immediately start practicing punches. She remained standing gracefully in place.
“Shangguan Yun, you are the grade chief. According to regulations, you can receive three injections per class. Do you want them now, or wait until you’ve digested the first?” the Physical Education teacher asked.
“I’ll take them now. When I was at Chu Sect, my dosage was already quite high. I feel like I need at least two injections at once to be enough,” Shangguan Yun said calmly.
Three injections in a row?
Mu Yanxi watched the other female cultivators—those who had taken one injection were already moaning, jogging around the track, practicing punches, or doing push-ups in place.
The effect of this injection was so strong. Could Shangguan Yun really handle three injections as she claimed?
“Let’s start with two injections. If there’s no problem, then go for three. After all, this is a new experimental drug that hasn’t passed clinical trials. We can’t rule out side effects.” Teacher Wei Dai handed the second injection to Shangguan Yun.
Shangguan Yun lifted her skirt again and administered the second injection. This time, her blood energy exploded completely, erupting like a volcano.
In an instant, it overwhelmed all the surrounding disciples, even activating the Forbidden Ward of the plaza.
Taking two injections was definitely not a simple one-plus-one equals two effect. The effect seemed to multiply several times.
And Shangguan Yun’s own blood energy was already boundless; it was only under the stimulus of the injection that it burst forth.
But although the erupting blood energy blew her hair and qipao wildly about, Shangguan Yun still showed no signs of pain or moaning.
She stood motionless in place, the blood energy surging magnificently, yet unlike the others, there was no sense of chaos.
“As expected of the chief disciple. At the fortieth layer of Qi Refining, with a physical constitution exceeding two hundred, she can fully withstand two injections. Even compared to the elite students of those heaven-grade High Sects, she is in no way inferior.” Teacher Wei Dai couldn’t help but praise.
“In that case, you really can take the third injection. This is valuable experimental data. Yangxin Hall will be very happy.” The teacher handed the third jade maiden body shaping injection to Shangguan Yun.
Shangguan Yun didn’t hesitate and stabbed herself with the third injection. This time, she finally let out a soft, quiet moan.
As the amber-colored agent entered her body, fiery blood energy burst straight into the sky like an explosion, as if she would ascend to immortality in an instant.
The surrounding disciples were blown back several steps. Only Teacher Wei Dai, who stood like an iron tower, remained unmoved, ready to rescue her at any moment.
“Wow!”
Some disciples who had already taken their injections and those still in line stared at Shangguan Yun, ready to intervene if she couldn’t withstand it.
But Shangguan Yun’s performance was still better than the other female disciples who had received injections.
She stood steadily, only slightly adjusting her horse stance. When the blood energy boiled to its peak, she threw a punch into the empty air.
A stream of blood energy shot out from her fist, transforming into a multicolored phoenix that flew into the sky. After traveling a long distance, it gradually dissipated.
After throwing that punch, Shangguan Yun released some of the excess blood energy. Her skin became lustrous like jade, but due to the excess blood energy, it was flushed red, like beautiful red jade.
The blood energy reached a balance within Shangguan Yun’s body. She began circulating her physical arts, rapidly digesting the medicinal power. Her skin grew even more translucent and smooth.
Teacher Wei Dai’s face was full of admiration, as if looking at a perfect work of art as he watched Shangguan Yun’s physique. He nodded approvingly and said, “No pain, no gain. Classmates, you should all learn from Shangguan Yun’s spirit of hard work.”
Hard work?
All Mu Yanxi saw was the power of the injections. Although in her past life there had been some elixirs with severe side effects, something like an injection… Mu Yanxi didn’t know how to describe it. She just felt it was very strange, not like proper Dao of medicine.
Besides, wasn’t everyone supposed to receive only one injection? Even if she wanted to imitate Shangguan Yun and take three in a row, she couldn’t.
Just as Mu Yanxi was thinking this, Wei Ling stepped forward and said, “I want to learn from Sister Shangguan’s spirit! I want two injections!”
Teacher Wei Dai showed a gratified expression and said, “That’s a promising student. But the first one is free; the second costs one hundred spirit stones. This is a special discount only the sect can offer you.”
“No problem.”
Wei Ling immediately picked up her Terminal Ring and paid one hundred spirit stones on the spot, receiving two injections.
She didn’t even take them one by one—she directly stabbed both sides of her buttocks, one on each side.
“Ahhhhhhh!”
Wei Ling let out a scream of pain. If the other girls had only moaned, her reaction was clearly accompanied by painful physical convulsions. Blood energy seemed to tear through her body as it burst forth.
Wei Ling was a weapon cultivator and had strong physical fitness. Although she shuddered in pain, she adapted quickly, and her skin began to transform into a jade-like color.
However, she couldn’t remain as calm as Shangguan Yun. She took out her Qinghe halberd and ran to an open space nearby, swinging the halberd with great force to consume the potent medicinal energy.
“I’ll take three as well.”
The fit and strong Shi Yuzhi stepped forward. She was second in the grade, with Qi Refining also surpassing thirty layers, and she was a physical cultivator. It was reasonable for her to want three injections.
“Headmaster Mo has specifically instructed me that the top ten in the grade can receive two injections for free. You can get three for free.” Teacher Wei Dai handed her three injections as well.
Shi Yuzhi smiled and said to herself, “Coming here was the right choice. If I had gone to a heaven-grade High Sect, they wouldn’t have free agents like the Spiritual Moon Sect.”
Mu Yanxi remembered that during the opening ceremony, Shi Yuzhi had said that Headmaster Mo had personally recruited her away from Chu Sect and urged her to apply to Spiritual Moon Sect. By then, Headmaster Mo must have already promised Shi Yuzhi many benefits.
There was an old saying in her previous life: better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. There was some truth to it.
By coming to Spiritual Moon Sect, Shi Yuzhi could receive focused cultivation, but at a heaven-grade High Sect, she would only be an ordinary disciple. In the end, her achievements might not exceed what she could gain here.
Shi Yuzhi didn’t take both injections at once like Wei Ling. Like Shangguan Yun, she took them one by one.
After the third injection, she wasn’t as calm as Shangguan Yun. She also performed a set of punches on the spot, but her performance was far better than Wei Ling’s. As expected of a physical cultivator.
Next, one after another, the female disciples went to receive their injections. The vast majority asked for a second one.
After all, who among the elite class students wouldn’t push themselves? But aside from the top ten, the other disciples…
