DRAGON EMPEROR

CHAPTER 54 Panatua Mu Lan

After half a day, rumbling sounds appeared on Lu Ming's body like the faint roar of a dragon. The Typhoon Qi in his dantian began to spin rapidly as the world's spiritual energy gathered wildly in his body.

Lu Ming's body was like an abyss that consumed spiritual energy in panic.

Even Hua Chi and Pang Shi in the other two rooms were shocked.

“This is Lu Ming's cultivation level. Did he break through? Why is there such a big reaction? The speed of spiritual energy consumed was even more frightening than the Fifth Level blood meridians. Did Lu Ming's blood meridians really surpass the Fifth Level?” Hua Chi's eyes widened in admiration.

Wusssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss...

The commotion had only subsided after a while.

Inside the room, Lu Ming opened his eyes.

“The Second Stage of the True War Dragon Technique has finally been developed. Rich and condensed Essential Qi! Lu Ming examined the dense Essential Qi surging in his body with an expression of ecstasy.

Currently, his Essential Qi was three times that of most people. Of course, “most people” in this context means those who developed the Yellow Level technique.

This was because the higher the level of techniques developed, the more mystic abilities he had. Then, the Essential Qi generated from a certain high-level technique would be richer and denser.

Of course, it was impossible to reach such a frightening level as the True War Dragon Technique.

After which, Lu Ming got up and exited the room.

After cultivating for ten days or so, he wanted to take a walk outside and relax.

As he exited his room, he saw Hua Chi and Pang Shi were also walking out.

When Pang Shi noticed Lu Ming, he smiled and asked, “Senior Brother Lu, are you going to join the lecture as well?”

"Lecture?" Lu Ming looked empty.

“Yup, today an elder from Vermillion Bird Hall gave us a lecture, covering some information about cultivation as well as things to note. Senior Brother Lu, do you know?” Pang Shi patted his own head.

"Yuk!" Lu Ming coughed a few times awkwardly. He really doesn't know. Right now, he was busy cultivating and was practically not out at all.

“Then, let's go together!” Lu Ming said with a smile.

He had just finished his seclusion, so he could go and listen. Lu Ming had only started cultivating well for a few months. During this time, his cultivation had increased greatly. On the other hand, he had ignored certain fundamental things, so attending lectures would definitely be beneficial to him.

Lu Ming and Pang Shi walked side by side while Hua Chi followed behind with a stiff expression.

The old man's lecture was on the other side of the Vermillion Bird Peak. There is a giant box in which there are cattail socks.

At that moment, there were already several hundred people sitting on socks in the square. They were all newly registered apprentices.

“See, Lu Ming is here.”

“I've heard that after Lu Ming challenged Senior Brother Ning Feng, he secluded himself. Now, he finally showed up.”

When the disciples saw Lu Ming, they could not help but whisper to each other.

Lu Ming did not care about them and found socks to sit on.

As time went on, the number of spectators increased. In the end, there were about five hundred people.

Originally, the Vermillion Bird Hall had around a thousand new apprentices. However, during the testing, about 200 of them were killed, leaving only 800 people.

There are also some who are secluded or busy. It's a common thing.

Just then, a figure flew gracefully over the square.

When Lu Ming realized this figure, his eyes widened. “Mu Lan?”

That figure was Mu Lan whom he had not seen for several months. She was wearing a tight black dress with a unique style.

Sure enough, there was a male disciple beside Lu Ming who was staring at Mu Lan with his mouth agape. He practically drools.

He's not the only one. The other male apprentices in the square also acted similarly. They wore confused and lewd expressions as they stared at Mu Lan above them.

Most of these apprentices are fifteen to sixteen year olds, who are full of hormones. How could they resist Mu Lan's charm?

“Hmph, you're all depraved! Mesum!” All the female disciples were irritated as they snorted coldly.

“Alright, please sit down. Let me introduce myself. I'm Mu Lan, the elder who will give you a lecture today!” Mu Lan's gaze turned and stopped on Lu Ming.

On Lu Ming's side, Pang Shi was stunned. "What's? Is he older? How could he be so young?”

“Do you know nothing? Let me tell you. Elder Mu Lan possessed extraordinary talent and unrivalled beauty. He was only 20 years old, but his cultivation was profound. He will most likely be the next Golden-robed apprentice.”

Behind them, Hua Chi pursed her lips. However, his eyes were fixed on Mu Lan with great excitement.

“Is he amazing? Then, how could he be an elder?” Pang Shi asked curiously.

In the Mystical Sword Sect, a true prodigy would not be an elder. The roles of elders and helpers usually fall on those who are older, or in other words, those whose potential is exhausted.

Mu Lan's current age was the pinnacle of her cultivation. Besides, he has incredible talent. Rarely would someone like him be an elder.

“I don't know either. Not many people knew why Elder Mu Lan had suddenly chosen to be an elder. Elder Mu Lan is my goddess. My goal is to become a leading expert and successfully seduce him.” Hua Chi wore the expression of a love-stricken fool.

Above them, Mu Lan sat cross-legged on a cattail sock and said, “Alright, let's start the lecture. First of all, let's talk about Nature Beginners..”.

He began to discuss some details regarding the Beginner Realm, explaining the aspects that must be considered, as well as the purpose of this nature. The lectures are very detailed and cover all areas.

After he finished talking about the Beginner Realm, he moved to the Warrior Realm, then the Master Realm.

Lu Ming listened carefully. There were actually many things that he was not aware of before, or did not understand.

After the lecture, he felt he had learned a lot of lessons. Moreover, he was secretly stunned by the depth of Mu Lan's learning and the sharpness of her comprehension.

His lecture lasted for two hours before Mu Lan stopped.

“All right, that's it for today. You can go!” He waved his hand, then directed his gaze at Lu Ming and exclaimed, “Lu Ming, stay behind!”

"Very good!" Lu Ming was slightly surprised and quickly nodded.

Even so, Mu Lan's words again caused quite a commotion.

“Why did Elder Mu Lan ask Lu Ming to stay? Do they know each other?”

“Surely Elder Mu Lan dislikes Lu Ming?”

“Bah, how is it possible? Elder Mu Lan is my goddess, so it is definitely impossible!”

“Oh, how I envy Lu Ming! He could be alone with Elder Mu Lan. Ah, Elder Mu Lan is really pretty. If I could marry her, I would willingly give up ten years of my life.”

“Stop daydreaming!”

The disciples around looked at Lu Ming with envy, admiration, and resentment.

Lu Ming smiled bitterly. Mu Lan's charm was simply too powerful.

“How can this happen? Why did Elder Mu Lan ask Lu Ming alone to stay behind? Lu Ming, you better be respectful. Otherwise, I will have to deal with you!” Hua Chi stared intently at Lu Ming dejectedly, desperately hoping that he would stay.

Lu Ming scratched his nose speechlessly and went towards Mu Lan.

After a while, everyone dispersed from the square, leaving only Mu Lan and Lu Ming.

The two sat facing each other.
