Chapter 104: Dragon Palace

The person who suddenly spoke was Gao Sheng, who had a curious look on his face.

“Although I don’t practice the techniques of the Beast Taming Sect and cannot sign a Bloodline Contract with a dragon pet, there is more than one way to tame beasts. If I could also have a dragon pet that can rival a Heavenly God Body, just thinking about it is exciting.”

In the crowd, Xu Zhizhi looked at Gao Sheng. Was this guy a shill found by Lin Jing?

To be honest, he even suspected Wang Xiao had been bought off. Even now, he found it hard to accept. He looked at the silly Dragon Carp on the stage. How could this Dragon Carp rival a Heavenly God Body? If it were a battle at the same level, wouldn’t he… be insta-killed by this carp?

Could the Hidden Dragon Secret Technique and this Medicinal Pill alone really achieve such a level?

Lin Jing looked at Gao Sheng and smiled, “As long as it’s nurtured properly, even if it’s not as good as my Dragon Carp, it will definitely be extremely powerful. As for the price…”

It was impossible to completely match the Flame Dragon Carp. After all, others didn’t have the Blood of Longevity to feed their Pet Beasts. However, Lin Jing had tested the medicine many times and had full confidence before daring to sell it.

“We are all classmates. If you also want to nurture a dragon pet, I certainly won’t be stingy.”

“The price will be calculated based on the average price of a Grade Three Medicinal Pill!”

“Besides that, I plan to establish a student organization for interested Fellow Daoists to discuss how to nurture dragon pets. Just by purchasing one Rising Dragon Pill and joining this organization, I, Lin, will plan the entire nurturing process for everyone. How about it? Isn’t it a great deal?”

A student organization?!

Everyone was stunned.

Xu Zhizhi took a deep breath, feeling that Lin Jing’s ambitions were vast.

A student organization in the academy was a prototype of the political factions in the Ancient Kingdom. Generally, only prodigies from major families would create them, and geniuses from small forces who joined were essentially siding with these factions to better navigate the Immortal Cultivation World in the future.

Lin Jing, a freshman from a third-rate Sect, actually had the heart to establish a student organization!

How could anyone be willing to follow him!

“Is it for real? I’ll join!” The next moment, someone spoke up; it was Gao Sheng again.

“Damn, someone actually joined!” Xu Zhizhi was dumbfounded. Gao Sheng, a descendant of a Soul Transformation expert, instead of socializing with the children of major families, was coming here to join the fun with Lin Jing!

“Student organization? What’s it called?” Gao Sheng asked with great interest.

He happened to have a Foundation Establishment Dragon Horse, but it didn’t have a King-level Bloodline. Even with his status, it wasn’t easy for his Family to find him a King Beast cub as a mount, let alone a Dragon-blooded King Beast cub.

Lin Jing’s Dragon Carp had made Gao Sheng quite envious. At the thought that one day his Dragon Horse could also rival a Heavenly God Body of the same level, Gao Sheng felt like he was about to drool.

He had only come to the academy because his Family forced him; he had no intention of making extensive connections. What he was interested in was best.

“Dragon Palace,” Lin Jing said. “The student organization I want to establish is named Dragon Palace.”

“Besides Brother Gao, are any other classmates interested?”

After Lin Jing spoke, the crowd buzzed with discussion.

Many freshmen showed strange expressions, not understanding what Lin Jing was up to.

“Dragon Palace? Can you sell me a Rising Dragon Pill now? I want to test the effect first.”

Zi Ling’er from the Dan Ding Sect was the second to speak. She was very interested in the Rising Dragon Pill and was certain that this kind of pill was appearing on the continent for the first time.

“Me too.” Yuan Jing looked at the Dragon Carp. Although his most anticipated partner was a “Sword Spirit,” it was impossible not to be moved when facing a young dragon that could rival a Heavenly God Body.

“What about you, Brother Xu?” Seeing that his partners who had entered the Grotto-heaven together were all being supportive, Lin Jing looked at Xu Zhizhi with a smile.

Only this guy was still hesitating.

On one hand, Xu Zhizhi was indeed very eager for a dragon pet—everyone had seen the battle just now. But on the other hand, he felt that following Lin Jing wouldn’t be much help for his future career in officialdom!

He was still hesitating between several student organizations established by the children of the nobility!

“I’ll join too! But remember to give me a discount on the pills!”

Xu Zhizhi’s eyes turned red. Even the Qilin son of the Wang Family from the capital had been suppressed by Lin Jing, so why bother choosing any other noble children!

He hoped Lin Jing wasn’t the kind of Genius who was just a flash in the pan. He didn’t know if this choice was right or wrong—giving up the chance to cling to the thighs of major Family children and getting on Lin Jing’s “demon car”…

With the battle between the Dragon Carp and Wang Xiao, the promotional goal had been achieved. Now, the freshmen present all wanted to see the effect of the Rising Dragon Pill with their own eyes first.

“I don’t have enough Spirit Stones on me. It should be fine to exchange this pill for a Rising Dragon Pill with you, right?” Zi Ling’er threw out a medicine bottle.

“This is a Grade Three Medicinal Pill, the ‘Giant Spirit Pill.’ It allows a low-level Cultivator to simulate a ‘Nascent Soul Dharma Idol’ once and experience the power of the Nascent Soul. Among Grade Three pills, its price is also top-tier.”

“Of course.” Lin Jing took the Giant Spirit Pill. Grade Three pills were meant for Golden Core Cultivators, so this Giant Spirit Pill was quite good.

The cost of the Rising Dragon Pill wasn’t actually high among Grade Three pills. The only expensive part was the blood of a Demon Core stage dragon-blooded Yao Beast. The other Materials were synthesized by the Pine Leaf Squirrel. Once the Dragon Carp reached the Demon Core stage, he wouldn’t even need to buy dragon blood.

Lin Jing also threw a Rising Dragon Pill to Zi Ling’er.

“Fairy Purple, do you have a pet?” he asked.

“I have a Foundation Establishment Stage Dan Rabbit that I use for testing medicine. It’s currently in my Immortal Cave,” Zi Ling’er said. “You all can come with me.”

Saying that, she couldn’t wait to take the Rising Dragon Pill. Her True Essence surged as she flew toward a mountain peak. Seeing this, everyone immediately flew and followed her.

Before long, everyone arrived at Zi Ling’er’s academy Immortal Cave. She performed a hand seal, the stone door of the cave opened, and then a white rabbit demon at the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage slowly walked out.

“Master, what’s the matter… So many people, I’m scared.” The white rabbit demon made a weak voice, looking at the dozens of Cultivators in fear.

“I have a pill here, try it.” Zi Ling’er took out the Rising Dragon Pill and threw it to the white rabbit demon.

“This is… a Dan Rabbit!” Someone recognized the race of this rabbit demon. It was a special rabbit demon whose Bloodline and Physique could weaken the toxicity of various Medicinal Pills. They were bred by the Dan Ding Sect. Their combat power wasn’t strong, but they were very compatible with alchemists.

“Fairy Purple, although the Dan Rabbit is a perfect medicine-testing Spirit Beast, its Bloodline strength isn’t high. It might not be able to perfectly display the effects of the Rising Dragon Pill,” Lin Jing said. “The stronger the Bloodline before taking the pill, the higher the purity after transforming into dragon blood!”

“No matter,” Zi Ling’er said. Then, under her gaze, the Dan Rabbit swallowed the Rising Dragon Pill.

Thump! Thump!

The Dan Rabbit’s heartbeat was very loud, its red eyes began to show a hint of cloudiness, and a terrifying dragon pressure began to emanate from its body. The powerful pressure actually made the surrounding Foundation Establishment geniuses tremble slightly.

Dragon pressure was far more terrifying than the aura of a Cultivator of the same level!

With a hum, spiritual power spread, and the Dan Rabbit broke through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage. Its physical form underwent a huge change during this process: its fur shed, its size increased dramatically, its forelimbs became exceptionally thick with muscles like intertwining vines tightly wrapping around the bones, and its hind legs were even more astonishing, with muscles bulging like mountains.

The muscles on its back and waist were also smooth and firm, outlining a breathtaking dragon-like contour. When it turned slightly, the rippling of its back muscles was like a divine dragon rising and falling. Its abdomen, despite being covered by short fur, still clearly showed eight-pack abs…

Its two long ears had even turned into a pair of red dragon horns.

Seeing this, Zi Ling’er took a deep breath and said, “Try attacking me.”

In the next instant, the Dan Rabbit kicked toward Zi Ling’er. Her protective True Essence shattered, and she instantly turned into a purple light, being kicked into the mountainside by the Dragon Rabbit, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Was this that weak Dan Rabbit? But why did it feel like this kick had been building up resentment for a long time, and didn’t seem like just testing strength?
