"Vessel-locking Needle".

Xin Lin took a closer look at the newly released cultivation technique, and it was just a modification of one word.

She flipped through the cultivation technique manual and took a look.

"Life Book, you’re too lazy, aren’t you? You just changed the finger attack to Xuanyu Bee Needle attack, with three needles of long, medium, and short length attacking the Five Meridians’ Qi points. Such superficial modifications, and you have the nerve to charge me 200 Heaven-defying Value?"

Xin Lin complained irritably.

This lousy system is getting more and more sneaky.

"Life Book reminder: If the life master is not satisfied, the system can refund, but the 200 Heaven-defying Value is non-refundable, and related cultivation technique memories will be erased."

The Heaven-defying Book replied dryly.

"Don’t! I admit my mistake, isn’t that enough?"

Xin Lin chuckled awkwardly.

The Life Book’s temperament is becoming more and more bullish.

If Xin Lin knew how cowardly the Heaven-defying Book was in front of Gui Hu, she would’ve cursed already.

Vessel-locking Needle is Vessel-locking Needle.

Xin Lin simply took out the Xuanyu Bee Needle and started to practice it; once changed to a needle, it didn’t seem like the Vessel-locking Technique at all.

Just before dawn.

The School Clinic’s door had just opened.

Master Mo yawned.

Whew whew whew—

Several needles flew over.

Master Mo’s ears twitched slightly, his eyes sharp, his body slightly arched, ready like a taut bow.

But then the corner of his eye caught sight of those few fine needles flashing jade color, and his body relaxed.

The next moment, she cried out loudly.

All three needles precisely and unmistakably hit Master Mo’s back.

"Which damned scoundrel dares to ambush me!"

Master Mo howled.

Xin Lin jumped in front of her, covering her mouth.

"Master Mo, don’t howl, I’m just trying out a new acupuncture method."

"Hey hey, this isn’t a poison needle, is it? I feel weak all over after you poked me."

Master Mo exclaimed.

"You’ll get better in a while."

Xin Lin seized the opportunity to check Master Mo’s pulse.

Master Mo’s pulse was stable. There was no apparent True Qi inside her, just some slight respiratory discomfort, obviously due to Xin Lin pricking her meridians.

"You little rascal, joking around with me early in the morning."

Master Mo cursed.

But seeing Xin Lin perform a trick and produce several White Jade Steamed Buns and Ultimate Lingxiu Buns, she instantly became joyful.

"Haven’t had your buns for a while. I say, Xiao Xin, where have you been running off to? It’s been quite unsafe outside lately, don’t go causing trouble."

Master Mo glanced at Xin Lin, noticing her dusty appearance.

"Causing trouble? Master Mo, shouldn’t you worry about me getting bullied? After all, I’m young, and my cultivation isn’t high?"

Xin Lin batted her eyes.

Master Mo’s mouth twitched hard.

"Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Last night, several members from Gu Feng Academy ran into something evil; early in the morning, they were found acting insane, lying at the front gate. Gu Feng Academy’s instructors are causing a fuss with the two deans."

Master Mo rambled.

These days, Qingtian Academy has indeed been quite unsettled; first, Star Academy had an incident.

Then Gu Feng Academy, and the End of Year Assessment hasn’t even started yet. What will happen next?

Master Mo spoke with no intention, but Xin Lin knew very well in her heart.

"Master Mo, don’t worry, hang the free consultation sign outside, saying that aside from bruises and fractures, we also cure general weakness and chronic illness. But this time, we’ll charge a consultation fee, one hundred taels per visit."
