Originally, Lu Ping just wanted to pass a message to Mo Lin, but in the end, he seized the opportunity to find a way to break through in his cultivation. And from the current situation, this path seemed very correct; as long as he did this, the complete control of the Mingzhi Soul would be within reach.

"Thank you!" Lu Ping sincerely expressed his gratitude to Yun Chong.

Yun Chong waved his hand. He had done it unintentionally, but he was also comforted to be able to help Lu Ping. He felt quite frustrated just using his Qinyin Teng as a megaphone, but now it was much better.

"What?" Xiu Zhiping and Shi Ao were both confused. Unlike Su Tang and Xifan, they did not understand Lu Ping's situation, nor did they have Chu Min and Yun Chong's keen perception, so they did not know that Lu Ping had just undergone an extraordinary cultivation.

"I found a pattern in the Dean's ability," Lu Ping said excitedly.

"Oh..." Xiu Zhiping and Shi Ao, being Yun Chong's students, knew a bit about how their mentor's ability worked, even though they did not possess it.

"Is this the rhythm you need?" Yun Chong asked. He had sensed something, but the fleeting feeling made it hard for him to confirm clearly.

"Yes," Lu Ping said.

Yun Chong nodded. These cultivators who taught at the academy would not keep their abilities secret; they would just choose suitable students to teach. Lu Ping only needed this rhythm, so Yun Chong decided to help him all the way: "I'll give you a complete one."

"Was the previous one incomplete?" Lu Ping asked.

"Previous? Of course, it was complete," Yun Chong replied. Without this rhythm, it was impossible to control the Mingzhi Soul and activate the Qinyin Teng. So as long as the Qinyin Teng was used, the rhythm was necessarily complete.

"I've already memorized it!" Lu Ping said.

"You... memorized it?" Yun Chong was stunned. Although the Qinyin Teng used just now was relatively lengthy, to have grasped the rhythm to control the Mingzhi Soul in that short time was truly terrifying! Could it be because he was a Heavenly Awakened?

Yun Chong was lost in thought. Chu Min, however, laughed. She knew what Yun Chong was surprised about, but he was surprised at the wrong thing. Lu Ping could grasp it so quickly because of his speed. In the time Yun Chong thought was not long, Lu Ping had already practiced it countless times. By repeating it many times, he could master what he needed, and the actual time used would not be much, which seemed very efficient to others.

To achieve such speed, of course, required great talent, but this was not what Yun Chong thought.

"Does Mo Lin understand everything now?" Chu Min asked at this point. Yun Chong, focused on Lu Ping, had forgotten his original purpose.

"Understood, just nod," Yun Chong, regaining his composure, passed the message to Mo Lin again.

Mo Lin nodded.

"Better to agree on some communication signals, so Mo Lin can understand the situation and grasp the information," Xiu Zhiping suddenly added.

"You should have done this earlier," Yun Chong glared at Chu Min. This should have been done before the Zhanpo cultivation. Chu Min had carelessly stripped the soul power from the few of them.

"Work a bit harder!" Chu Min indicated that he could start.

When the students left the abandoned house again, Yun Chong showed a hint of fatigue. He lay on the rocking chair in the yard, closing his eyes to rest, too tired to even talk to Chu Min.

Lu Ping and his group returned to the city, the atmosphere harmonious. However, they soon reached the point where they had to part ways. Lu Ping and the others went directly to register Xifan and Mo Lin, while Xiu Zhiping and Shi Ao went to join the other students from Tianzhao Academy, going together.

"See you at the Soul Pointing Conference," Xiu Zhiping said.

"See you!" Lu Ping and the others nodded. Xiu Zhiping was not talkative, but it was clear he was warm-hearted and had thought of many things for them today.

"Then we'll be opponents, don't kill me!" Shi Ao joked.

"Definitely not," Lu Ping said.

"Hey, don't say it like you really have a chance!" Shi Ao immediately became dissatisfied.

Lu Ping laughed, not saying much more. The two sides then parted ways, each going their own way. Lu Ping and the others quickly returned to the Xihuo Square, where they saw even more people lining up on Xihuo Street. To their surprise, the young man named Xu Weifeng was still there, sitting on the ground next to the registration desk, the place where he had been punched and knocked down by Zhao Gang, watching students from various academies register.

"You're back so soon?" Xu Weifeng was also surprised to meet them again so quickly. As he spoke, he noticed Xifan and Mo Lin, who were being pushed and carried by the two.

"Who is this?" Xifan did not recognize the young man.

"Tianwu Academy, Xu Weifeng," Xu Weifeng introduced himself.

"Zhaofeng Academy, Xifan," Xifan said.

Both academies were not well-known, so neither felt superior, avoiding any sense of disdain.

"Why are you still here?" Lu Ping asked.

"Staying to observe, everyone here will be our opponents next," Xu Weifeng said.

If many students had heard this, they would probably have laughed. A guy who was punched and flown away was still observing opponents. How ridiculous was that?

But Lu Ping did not laugh, nor did Su Tang, and Xifan, who did not know what had happened before, did not laugh either.

"Then continue observing your opponents, we'll go queue up," Lu Ping said.

"Why queue up again?" Xu Weifeng was confused.

"Because these two still need to register," Lu Ping said.

"You and Su Tang stay here, I'll go with Mo Lin, it's good to get familiar," Xifan said.

Familiar with what? Xifan did not say, but Lu Ping and Su Tang understood. It was to let Mo Lin get used to pretending to be normal, to blend in during registration.

"Go ahead," Lu Ping put Mo Lin down and tapped his hand in the agreed manner. Then Mo Lin pushed Xifan's wheelchair out. At first, it was a bit uncoordinated, but soon it became natural, and it was no longer noticeable that there was anything unusual.

Lu Ping and Su Tang both breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Weifeng, standing nearby, asked, "Blind?"

"Yes," Lu Ping and Su Tang nodded. Being mistaken for being blind was better than being caught using Zhanpo cultivation. They were relieved that Xu Weifeng thought this way. They did not want to draw too much attention to this issue.

"Have you found anything while you've been here?" Su Tang changed the topic.

"A lot, want to see?" Xu Weifeng's eyes flashed with excitement. As he spoke, he flipped through the large notebook on his lap. Lu Ping and Su Tang leaned in to look.
