Sooner or later, he would beat up this damn chatterbox fatty. Fu Nansi said to himself in his heart.

Zhang Yan did not know what the person opposite him was thinking. He said enviously, "Xiao Si, are you and Ren Zhiling a couple?"

Fu Nansi, "… Hmm?" He felt that this damn fatty not only had a problem with his brain, but also with his eyes.

Zhang Yan shook his head and said, "You guys are so close, but you still listen to her.

My little sister told me to keep my distance from girls and that I can only be close to my future wife. Also, I have to listen to everything my wife says. "

Fu Nansi denied, "Zhiling is an alchemist and I'm her follower. She's been very good to me and has helped me a lot. Everything she says is for my own good. That's why I listen to her."

Although he said that, he was laughing in his heart. How could he fall in love with a sixteen year old girl? He could be friends, but treating her as his wife was like a beast.

Today was the first day of school and everyone was not familiar with each other. Zhang Yan did not expect Ren Zhiling to be an alchemist. He smiled as if he had found a treasure and said, "Ren Zhiling is an alchemist. She's so amazing, I want to be her follower too!"

Although Zhang Yan's family was not a big family, they were not bad. However, he had never eaten any alchemy pills and the family's resources were all given to his brother. The more powerful his brother was, the less status he and his little sister had in the family.

He did not expect his roommate to be an alchemist. Although Zhang Yan was not very smart, he knew that he had to suck up to Ren Zhiling.

When Fu Nansi heard this, he regretted that he had blurted out this matter.

A martial artist could only follow one alchemist, but as long as an alchemist was strong, they could have countless followers.

Although this damn fatty was a little stupid, he was able to get into Cangling College and was naturally talented.

Ren Zhiling already had a good impression of this damn fatty and would not reject him as her follower.

Fu Nansi had shot himself in the foot.

Ren Zhiling was a very lucky person, he did not want another person to share the spiritual treasures that Ren Zhiling had accidentally obtained.

Just as Fu Nansi was thinking of how to make Fatty give up on this idea, she saw Zhang Yan walking quickly towards Ren Zhiling's room. This damn fatty acted as if he had never seen an alchemist before, why was he so impatient!

"Knock, knock, knock …" Fu Nansi heard the sound of his heart breaking as he knocked on the door.

Sure enough, this damn fatty was here specifically to counter him!

At this time, Ren Zhiling was listening to Ling Danzi's lecture in the Lingzhu space. When she heard Xiao Zhu say that someone was knocking on her door, she hurriedly came out of the space and tidied up her clothes before opening the door.

When she saw Zhang Yan and Fu Nansi standing at the door, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhang Yan smiled shyly and the dimples on his cheeks deepened. His tone was coy but firm, "Ren Zhiling, I heard from Xiao Si that you are an alchemist and he is your follower. Can I be your follower too?"

Zhang Yan seemed to be afraid that Ren Zhiling would reject him and continued, "I know that alchemists do not easily accept followers, but I am not bad either. I have a single earth attribute and I am most suitable to be a meat shield. If you are in danger, I can stand in front of you. I am 17 years old this year and my spiritual power is level 24. Although I am not particularly outstanding, I will work hard to not embarrass you in the future."

Zhang Yan spat out a long string of words in one breath, afraid that Ren Zhiling would not want him.

Ren Zhiling also blushed awkwardly. It was not that she did not know how to reject Zhang Yan, but Zhang Yan's words made her feel like she was about to go on a blind date …

Zhang Yan saw Ren Zhiling slightly lower her head and the light in her eyes dimmed. He was so anxious to become Ren Zhiling's follower because of his sister.

His sister was about to become a level 10 martial disciple and needed the help of an alchemist to refine pills. His powerful parents would definitely not treat this as an important matter and he was afraid that it would delay his sister's cultivation.

As a student of Cangling College, he naturally had the school to help him refine pills, but his sister had no one to rely on except him.

He did not have any good points, but he was talented and could cultivate. He wanted to sell himself to Ren Zhiling in exchange for some pills for his sister's cultivation.

"I'm sorry, I was rude …" Zhang Yan's tone was very disappointed, but he changed his tone and said, "But I still don't want to give up."

Ren Zhiling did not know about Zhang Yan's past, so she was indeed very hesitant. Although she had a good impression of Zhang Yan, it was too casual to accept him as a follower on the first day they met.

She tried to use a gentle tone and said, "I don't want to reject you, but we are not familiar with each other and this is too casual. How about … we talk about it after we get to know each other better?

If you want to refine pills, I can help you for free. "

Zhang Yan was a simple-minded person and did not think much after hearing Ren Zhiling's words. He nodded gratefully and said, "Ren Zhiling, thank you. I will talk about it after we get to know each other better."

Then, Zhang Yan left Ren Zhiling's room with satisfaction. As he walked, he said happily in a low voice, "Sister, brother will work harder and find you a pill refiner!"

Zhang Yan was happy, but Fu Nansi was not. He really could not smile and said in a muffled voice, "You want to accept him as a follower?"

Ren Zhiling replied, "Let me think about it. I will decide after we get to know each other for a while."

After saying that, she realized that Fu Nansi's expression was not right. Just as she was about to ask him what was wrong, a thought suddenly came to her mind. Fu Nansi … Was he worried that he would lose her favor?

Was he afraid that she would not treat him as well after she had a new follower?

He really had the temperament of a child.

Ren Zhiling was twenty-two years old when she transmigrated. She looked at Fu Nansi as if she was looking at a child.

"You don't have to worry. There will definitely be other followers by my side in the future. However, the relationship between us is not something that can be compared to the relationship between us." Ren Zhiling said gently, as if she was coaxing a child.

Fu Nansi resisted the urge to say "I disagree". If his character was destroyed, he was afraid that the first person to be chased away by Ren Zhiling would be him.

Fu Nansi felt that he was even more aggrieved now that he was reborn. If he still had the cultivation level of his previous life, then … He was afraid that he would not be interested in Ren Zhiling's alchemy skills.

"Zhiling, I'm going back to cultivate." Fu Nansi said tiredly.

"Okay."

Ren Zhiling did not try to persuade him. She could not not accept other followers just because of Fu Nansi. To her, safety was the most important thing.

… …

In the evening, all the new students of Cangling College gathered in the main hall. Ren Zhiling took a rough look and found that there were at least four hundred people. These four hundred people were the majority of the geniuses under the age of twenty in Cangling Country.

The new students' assembly was similar to that of modern schools. It was a speech by the leaders, talking about the school's discipline and the expectations that the school had for every student.

Finally, it was the dean's speech.

"Welcome to Cangling College's new students. Regarding Cangling College, I'm sure that everyone knows a lot about it. I won't beat around the bush."

"I will mainly talk about the differences between the inner and outer courtyard of Cangling College."

"The outer courtyard is where you go to learn and cultivate. You can graduate from the outer courtyard if you become a Revered Martial Artist before the age of thirty. If you are not a Revered Martial Artist by the age of thirty, you cannot claim to be a student of Cangling College. Every year, the school will eliminate a batch of students. If you don't want to be eliminated, you have to put in more effort."

"The inner courtyard is where the most outstanding students study. Every year, we will select the most talented students to study in the inner courtyard. Students in the inner courtyard receive better resources and teachers."

"There are only two ways to enter the inner courtyard. The first is to be recommended by three teachers and pass the inner courtyard's assessment. The second is to participate in the outer courtyard's ranking competition. The competition is held once a year and the top three can enter the inner courtyard to study."

"… …"

The dean's speech made all the students' blood boil. Of the three hundred new students present, every one of them were geniuses. Naturally, they did not believe that they were inferior to others. Although there were very few places to enter the inner courtyard, they were still very excited.

Only Ren Zhiling was unmoved. She just wanted to make pills in peace and then go to the school to get a piece of land to grow spiritual plants. Such a hot-blooded thing was not suitable for her.

She looked around and found that Fu Nansi's face did not have any expression of excitement.

Fu Nansi really did not have anything to be excited about. In his previous life, he was a strong person in Wu Sheng. Coming to Cangling College was just a wish from his previous life.

As for the inner courtyard's cultivation resources … … he had Ren Zhiling by his side, so he really did not have to worry about cultivation resources.

As for the inner courtyard's teachers … … he was the best teacher.

"Little Four, why aren't you excited?" Ren Zhiling felt that for a poor kid like Fu Nansi, what he yearned for the most was to be acknowledged by others.

"I … … Everyone else is so outstanding. I can't enter the inner courtyard."

Who would have thought that the excited Zhang Yan who was sitting beside Fu Nansi heard his words. He patted Fu Nansi's shoulder and said, "You have to be more confident in yourself!"

Zhang Yan was an earth elemental and had great strength. Fu Nansi did not notice and was shocked by his pat.

Fu Nansi's eyes flashed with anger, but it was extinguished by Ren Zhiling's gentle and sweet voice.

"Zhang Yan is right. Little Four, you have to be more confident. A confident man is the most handsome." Ren Zhiling felt that a man could be unhandsome, but he could not lack confidence.

Fu Nansi: "… …"

He, the strong person in Wu Sheng, did not lack confidence. In fact, he was very handsome!
