Mortal Cultivation-Chapter 259

259 A Sad Graduation Ceremony

The sun rose in the east, and descended in the west.

Another sunny day. At this time, it was the end of autumn. The mountains and forests were red and green, yellow leaves fluttering, and unknown wild fruits hang on the branches, showing pleasant colors and attracting the attention of all kinds of birds.

The Xuanbing Branch, which was located in the mountainside, had long been as beautiful as a picture scroll.

The mountains and forests were beautiful, as was the Xuanbing branch of ancient tiles and bricks in the mountains and forests, but in the face of such a beautiful scenery, the faces of the teachers and students standing in the academy at this time did not show any appreciation.

A total of two groups of people were standing in the courtyard. Bu Wenle, Lao Caitou, and Mei’er’s two bodyguards, Yin Yu and Fang Kui, were standing in one place, and the other place was facing Bu Wenle and several people stood there too. Wen Feng, Fatty, Ji Menghan, Bu Yueyue and Xiao Wang Weier.

Looking at the autumn scenery, Bu Wenle finally spoke after staring for a long time. “You don’t have to wait any longer. Now, Mei’er has also been promoted to the level of a great spiritual master. Let’s graduate together!”

The heavy voice represented the heavy heart of everyone. No one answered, everyone already understood in their hearts, more than two years have passed, and Wang Wei might never appear again.

In order to wait for Wang Wei’s return, Lu Wenfeng, who had already reached the fourth-level cultivation base, did not graduate early to depart. He was here with others, and they were still waiting. In the past two years without Wang Wei, everyone had been cultivating hard so as not to be overtaken by Wang Wei’s leading cultivation.

Looking forward to one day when Wang Wei comes back, the six of them could graduate together. After all, based on Wang Wei’s enchanting aptitude and performance, if everyone didn’t practice hard, they would soon be surpassed by Wang Wei. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺

.....

However, more than two years have passed, and Wang Wei had never appeared, not even a bit of news. Maybe, Wang Wei was really dead, and God was really embarrassed! Was this the so-called jealousy of talents?

Just a few days ago, Mei’er finally broke through to the cultivation level of a fourth-level great spiritual master. According to Mei’er’s promise to his parents at the beginning, under the prompting of Yin Yu and Fang Kui, it was time to go back to his parents.

Bu Wenle took out five jade pendants. The jade pendant was only slightly larger than the gold coin. The exquisite designs were carved on it, which set off the pattern of a mysterious ice bird in the middle. The bottom was equipped with red jade ears, which were small and exquisite.

This was the graduation certificate representing the identity of Xuanbing Academy. The name of the graduate student was engraved on the back of each jade pendant.

Bu Wenle was about to send the jade pendant and the graduation certificate to Lu Wenfeng and everyone, when there was a rhythmic knock on the door.

“It’s grand elder Shen Lingyun!” Bu Yueyue said, and ran over to open the door. Ever since everyone came back from the Forbidden City’s Spirit Master Competition, grand elder Shen had become a regular visitor here, always running here every now and then. Therefore, even the sound of her knocking on the door was already familiar to everyone.

As the old wooden door of the branch opened to the left and right, as expected, grand elder Shen Lingyun walked in from the outside alone. As she walked, she said, “I heard that our five heroes are graduating today, why didn’t you tell me? Then I’ll have to come uninvited!” 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

In the main courtyard of Xuanbing Academy, Lu Wenfeng and everyone have already become heroes. Being able to represent the college to become the first in the whole continent, it could be said that it had created a precedent in Xuanbing College.

Moreover, everyone in the Xuanbing branch who created this brilliant achievement was only ten or eleven years old. Therefore, under the vigorous mentioning of their valour by grand elder Shen Lingyun, the students in the main academy regarded everyone in the branch as a model, and Lu Wenfeng and others also became heroes of the academy.

“Hello, grand elder Shen!” Lu Wenfeng and the others bowed politely to the grand elder.

In the general courtyard, graduate students do not necessarily have to be present in person by the grand elder. There was no graduation ceremony, but when the cultivation base reached the fourth-level Great Spirit Master, the college directly issued a graduation certificate, and then it depended on the student’s own intentions.

Those who want to stay in the sect for further study must take the relevant responsibilities, and the college would assign tasks at any time. If one wanted to go home, one could go home directly after getting the graduation certificate. Of course, there were also those who returned to the academy after going home for a period of time, and they were also be treated as members.

Seeing the students say hello, grand elder Shen suddenly put away her smile and said solemnly to everyone, “You don’t need to be too polite. Today is an important day for all of you to graduate. I have a few words that I must explain to you.”

In the past, grand elder Shen usually came to see everyone in the branch on the surface and greeted Her Royal Highness the Princess, but in fact she was looking for an opportunity to get close to Bu Wenle. But judging from her performance today, it should be specifically for everyone’s graduation.

As a result, everyone including Lu Wenfeng also put away any loose moods, stood up in front of Shen Lingyun, and listened carefully to grand elder Shen’s speech.

Shen Lingyun continued. “You are the first batch of students who successfully graduated at the age of twelve or thirteen. It can be said that you are the best group of students in the history of our school. In this regard, I will first express Congratulations to you all.”

There was no applause, and everyone bowed their heads in silence. Everyone knew in their hearts that all of this was actually brought to you by Wang Wei. Without Wang Wei’s help, how could everyone’s cultivation level improve so quickly?

Shen Lingyun also understood the reason, so she deliberately didn’t mention things about Wang Wei. After a pause, Shen Lingyun continued. “Remember, after graduation, no matter when or where you encounter danger, Xuanbing Academy will always support you behind your back. When you need help from the academy, even if you send someone to send a small note, the academy will send its greatest strength to help you. So, remember, the academy will always be your second home.”
