Wu Hao, was quite reticent by nature, coupled with his heavy aura of killing intent and disdain for interacting with ordinary people. This made him seem extremely cold, keeping everyone at a distance.

He was able to remind Lu Yunxiao because Lu Yunxiao's strength had gained his recognition.

"Already famous? So soon?" Watching Wu Hao's figure disappear, Lu Yunxiao shook his head slightly. It seemed he had underestimated the speed of information spreading.

Regarding the troubles Wu Hao mentioned, he could also speculate. After all, there were many so-called geniuses in the Jia Nan Academy, and geniuses were often proud and unwilling to yield easily. Wu Hao had arrived displaying a domineering attitude, so those people were bound to be discontented, and troublemakers wouldn't be few.

"Well, it's fine. We'll have to face it sooner or later. When trouble comes, we'll just strike back directly and decisively."

Lu Yunxiao sighed softly, then took out his keys, opened the door, and walked straight in.

...

Jia Nan Academy, within a bright conference room, a group of elders stood quietly.

"You are all aware of the Demon Flame Valley's ambush on our Jia Nan Academy students," said the leader of the elders in the conference room, his gaze scanning calmly.

"We are all aware," they nodded in response. Their expressions were grim. The Demon Flame Valley's despicable actions were a huge challenge to Jia Nan Academy.

Simultaneously, such incidents negatively impacted the academy's reputation. Not being able to protect their own students was a massive blow to Jia Nan Academy's prestige.

"The actions of Demon Flame Valley have crossed our bottom line. This enmity must be repaid. Starting today, I've decided to strike the Demon Flame Valley's influence within the Black Corner Region. I want them to know the severe consequences of offending our Jia Nan Academy."

"Regarding the specifics and arrangements, discuss among yourselves. I have only one requirement: crush them until they can't endure, make them feel real pain."

The elder’s leader eyes glinted with icy determination. This elder was named Hu Gan, the Deputy Headmaster of Jia Nan Academy's outer courtyard, a genuine Dou Huang powerhouse.

The renowned prodigy of Jia Nan Academy was his granddaughter.

"Understood, Deputy Headmaster!" The other elders responded, and the atmosphere in the entire conference room became tense.

"That's it. Oh, have the new students enrolled today?" halfway through, Hu Gan seemed to recall something, asking softly.

"Yes, they've all enrolled today."

A certain elder spoke up. He was the head instructor of the outer courtyard. Although his rank wasn't high, he was also a Dou Huang powerhouse.

Having stood in the Black Corner Region for so many years, Jia Nan Academy had profound foundations. Even in the outer courtyard, there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

"They've enrolled, good. I heard among these new students, there's an unparalleled genius named Lu Yunxiao. Not only surpassing S-tier potential but also effortlessly defeating three Dou Shi’s?"

Hu Gan asked with interest. His granddaughter, Hu Jia, was an exceptional talent, and this new student reportedly had even greater potential. How could this Deputy Headmaster not be curious?

"Yes, and this matter has caused quite a stir within the academy. Many students are boasting about testing this new student's mettle."

The head instructor said calmly.

"Haha, interesting. It seems the academy will be lively in the coming days. I'd like to see whether this Lu Yunxiao, the 'Mighty Dragon,' will dominate or if these academy kids will outshine him."

Hu Gan chuckled, his eyes filled with intense interest.

...

"Ding, Sign-in task completed. Congratulations, Host, on receiving a mysterious gift package. Would you like to open it?"

Room 302, Lu Yunxiao was tidying up his bedding when suddenly the system's voice resounded in his mind.

"Open it." Lu Yunxiao finished arranging the sheets, sat on the bed, and spoke casually.

"Ding, the mysterious gift package is being opened."

"Ding, congratulations, Host, on receiving a copy of 'Thoughts on Alchemy,' one Soul Contract Stone, and three Cultivation Experience Cards!"

"'Thoughts on Alchemy' contains various alchemical prescriptions from myriad worlds, rare medicinal herbs, celestial treasures, fundamental alchemical knowledge, and insights from numerous alchemy masters. It is indeed the comprehensive encyclopedia of alchemy across myriad worlds."

"The Soul Contract Stone is an extraordinary object born from heaven and earth. With it, one can establish a soul contract, controlling the life and death of others. The number of people controlled and the strength of their souls cannot surpass the holder's by more than two levels."

"The Cultivation Experience Cards, one each for Wang, Huang, and Sheng levels, grant half an hour of corresponding realm cultivation experience per card."

As the system's words fell, an orange-yellow stone and three cards appeared directly in his hand.

Simultaneously, a golden light shot into his mind. Lu Yunxiao felt a sudden darkness before experiencing an intense pain in his mind.

In Lu Yunxiao's sea of consciousness, a purple-golden book floated in mid-air. On its cover, the words 'Thoughts on Alchemy' were engraved in a majestic manner. The entire book emitted a dazzling radiance, illuminating Lu Yunxiao's entire sea of consciousness.

"Host, 'Thoughts on Alchemy' contains vast and profound content, requiring a high level of soul power to comprehend. It is far beyond your current capacity. Therefore, the system has materialized the entire book within your sea of consciousness. In the future, if you wish to know anything, you can search for it yourself."

"The method of search is simple. Think of what you want to know, and you can access it."

"However, some parts of 'Thoughts on Alchemy' are too esoteric. Your current strength is insufficient. It's best not to read it indiscriminately. Remember, patience is a virtue."

The system couldn't help but gently remind.

"I understand!" Lu Yunxiao nodded. Just like eating, he knew he had to take things step by step.
