Chapter 1604: Preferential Treatment

“Qiaoqiao?” Seeing Qiao Mu in a daze, Qi Xuanxuan couldn’t resist tugging at her.

Qiao Mu guided her spiritual conscious out of her inner world and watched its gates shut before returning to the present.

She then turned to nod at Qi Xuanxuan. “It’s fine.”

However, her current situation required a somewhat quieter environment for her to complete her advancement.

It was not suitable for her to continue staying here right now.

Seeing that Qiao Mu was about to turn around and leave, Xu Liang hastily ran up and cupped his hands toward her. “This little junior sister, you… have passed our Sunlight Academy’s test. Please come over to complete your registration.”

Qiao Mu glanced coldly at him before responding with a shake of her head, “Apologies, but I am in a hurry to prepare for my advancement. I do not have time to do this registration.”

Senior Brother Xu Liang quickly stopped her and said with a smile, “Oh, that’s totally fine. Junior Sister only needs to give me your name. It will not take too much time for us to prepare an academy card for you, only several minutes…”

Yet Qiao Mu gave him an indifferent glance before curving her lips in derision, “Perhaps I have not made myself clear enough. I will not join your academy.”

After saying this, she walked off.

Beside her, Qi Xuanxuan also gave a cold harrumph and caught up to Qiao Mu without another word.

“Wait!” Senior Brother Xu Liang’s heart jolted, and he even raised his voice by several pitches.

“Will this young friend please wait.” A hoarse voice came from beyond the crowd.

It was only a moment before an elder with a white beard and hair hurried over swiftly. He inspected Qiao Mu before apologizing with a nod, “This young friend, it was our academy’s students who have been impertinent and greatly offended you.”

“Master.” Xu Liang hastily stood up and greeted that elder.

It turned out that Xu Liang had hastily sent his master a message when he saw that the situation was going downhill and that he would be unable to stop Qiao Mu from leaving. This was why the elder was able to hurry over in time.

“Elder Xu!” All the disciples greeted the elder.

This Elder Xu was Sunlight Academy’s honorary dean. He himself was also an extraordinary pill alchemist.

That was why even the dean himself also maintained a very respectful attitude toward this elder.

You Xin, as the daughter of Dean You, was of course aware of this point. She simply did not dare offend the elder.

When You Xin and He Wei saw Elder Xu appear, they knew that things had gone south.

Sure enough, Elder Xu glared fiercely at You Xin and He Wei before amiably smiling at Qiao Mu. “Little Miss, as long as you join our Sunlight Academy, this old man can waive your academy fees for three years.”

“In addition, this old man can be your recommender for participating in this year’s Six Prefectures’ Academy Ranking Competition in November!”

“Wow—” Everyone had perked up their ears, so when they heard the elder make this assurance, they all gasped in astonishment.

Elder Xu was actually vouching for a young, newly-admitted student and promising to send her to this year’s Six Prefectures’ Academy Competition in November?

It had to be known that the Six Prefectures’ Academy Competition was a league match every three years between all the academies on the Six Prefectures Continent.

It was a grand occasion that grabbed everyone’s attention in all of the Six Prefectures.

In addition, it involved each academy’s distribution of resources on Blinsheet Island for the next three years.

Blinsheet Island was a necessary place the Six Prefectures had to fight over.

Plentiful mineral resources and medicinal materials were dispersed throughout the island, which was half the size of Shuntian Prefecture..
