Chapter 61: Soone Poked My Belly
The essence blood of the Qingguang Beast and Lingyun Beast was extrely valuable. When sold, each drop was precise, with no excess. In contrast, essence blood from creatures like the Luo Zhi Bird and Hanbei Turtle, which were less popular, often ca with promotions, sotis even giving extra drops for free.
This ant that the bottles from Liu Mingyue and Yu Xiaoyu, labeled as containing one drop, actually had at least two drops.
Zhang Xuan had been focused on helping them ignite their furnaces and hadn't noticed, casually tossing the bottles aside after using one drop. He hadn't realized there was leftover essence blood, which Chen Hao now had.
"Two drops left?"
"Is it really Qingguang Beast and Lingyun Beast essence blood?"
"Miss Yu and Miss Liu both ignited top-grade peak furnaces. It can't be fake."
The crowd was abuzz. The wealth of these noble families was incredible, using one drop and discarding another.
"What's the matter? No one wants to try? Don't worry, I've been at the academy for three years, reached the fourth level of the source pool, and helped teachers ignite furnaces for junior students. I have practical experience…"
After introducing himself, Chen Hao looked around again. This ti, a few young n stepped forward eagerly.
"I want to try…"
" too…"
These students, from modest backgrounds, rarely had the chance to ignite even a mid-grade source pool. The opportunity to ignite a top-grade pool was too tempting to pass up.
"Alright, you two." Chen Hao selected two keen-looking boys and bowed to Lu Mingrong, "Dean Lu, I would like to try helping them ignite the furnaces. May I?"
"This…"
Knowing Chen Hao was targeting Zhang Xuan, Lu Mingrong frowned and looked at the young man. Seeing Zhang Xuan's calm deanor, showing no displeasure, he nodded, "It's understandable for students to want to try. However, if you can't succeed, to avoid wasting the essence blood, I will step in personally."
Though he spoke of preventing waste, Lu Mingrong's real concern was avoiding Zhang Xuan's displeasure. If Chen Hao did manage to ignite the furnaces, Lu Mingrong intended to step in and claim the credit himself.
This way, the public lecture wouldn't be as awkward.
"Of course..." Chen Hao felt relieved and nodded eagerly, excitent showing in his eyes.
As an admirer and follower of Liu Mingyue, he had resented this auxiliary teacher since the humiliation yesterday.
He had hoped to embarrass Zhang Xuan during today's public lecture, but now it seed the tables had turned. He couldn't resist stepping forward. If he did well this ti, Mingyue might think more highly of him…
Thinking of this, he glanced at Liu Mingyue. Despite her injuries, her face was still bruised and swollen. Her eyelids trembled with nervousness, and it was unclear what she was thinking.
"Don't worry about !" Chen Hao snorted lightly and approached the two new students. He took out the formation flags he had prepared and began setting up. After about ten minutes, he had completed a small formation for igniting furnaces, the "Furnace Ignition Fire Formation".
"Unexpectedly, Chen Xiao's son has set it up quite well…" Lu Mingrong thought to himself.
Chen Xiao, the head of the Chen family, was influential. For a student to help others ignite their furnaces and openly challenge a teacher, it was naturally due to Chen Xiao's influence.
The thod Chen Hao used was the standard furnace ignition technique, and the Furnace Ignition Fire Formation ensured a higher success rate.
Lu Mingrong had used the sa thod to help Mo Yanxue train.
He initially thought the student's challenge was a joke, but now he saw that Chen Hao knew what he was doing, following the correct sequence without error.
"You co first!" Chen Hao called one of the new students to sit by the formation, closed his eyes, and activated it with a light touch. A glow like a firefly's appeared, activating the formation.
"Let's use the Lingyun Beast essence blood! Normally, soone of your status wouldn't even have heard of this, let alone used it. Consider yourself lucky!"
Chen Hao said as he opened the jade bottle from Liu Mingyue. A drop of essence blood imdiately appeared at the center of the formation.
Buzz!
Enveloped by the formation, the essence blood released a greenish glow, transforming into tiny flas floating in the air.
This was the basic thod of igniting a furnace… the "Fire Blood Fla" technique!
"Impressive!"
"No wonder he's Young Master Chen…"
Exclamations of admiration rose from the crowd.
Even so teachers couldn't perform this so smoothly. A student not only succeeded but did so with such precision, exceeding expectations. No wonder he dared to openly challenge.
Chen Hao sighed in relief.
Though he had learned the thod, it wasn't always a guaranteed success. Achieving it on the first try this ti was quite lucky.
"Get ready, I'm sending the ignition fla into your source pool now…" he said, grabbing a small fla and pressing it into the student's shoulder acupoint.
The Fire Blood Fla traveled through the ridians, transforming into tiny stars within the source pool. Knowing this process required patience, Chen Hao continued infusing flas for nearly half an hour, sweating as he transferred all the flas into the student's body.
If visible, the student's source pool would be filled with tiny flas, like stars in the sky.
"Just one last step…"
Wiping sweat from his forehead, Chen Hao exhaled deeply and pressed his joined fingers against the student's source pool.
Imdiately, refined true energy shot from his fingertips into the student's abdon.
A spark can ignite the 'source'!
Normally, this energy would activate the stars, forming a furnace to refine source energy. But today, the result was disappointing. Despite Chen Hao's efforts, the student remained unresponsive, eyes closed, showing no reaction.
Having used all his strength without success, Chen Hao grew anxious.
The auxiliary teacher had casually given essence blood to Liu Mingyue, and she succeeded. Why was this student so unresponsive? Even after infusing all the energy into the source pool, there was no reaction.
Frustrated, he continued pressing, sending in more true energy.
One press, two presses, three presses…
Soon, he had pressed over 30 tis, sending over 30 streams of source energy, but the student remained motionless.
Sweat ford on his forehead. By all logic, the ignition should have happened long ago… Why wasn't it working?
This was Lingyun Beast essence blood, far stronger than anything he'd used before.
After a dozen more presses, feeling his energy nearly depleted and seeing no change, Chen Hao couldn't hold back any longer.
"Do you feel anything?"
"?"
The new student kept his eyes closed and said, "It feels like... soone is poking my belly."
