121: Genius is just the threshold for admission

Elite Comprehensive Peak.

After the Heaven Sealing Demon Banning Array was set up, the series of facilities on Dan Peak were almost all arranged, and it was renamed Elite Comprehensive Peak, which would begin accepting new students immediately.

It can be said that Elite Comprehensive Peak is the safest main peak in the entire Xuanxiao Sect, without a doubt.

As a new peak, it naturally needed to recruit new students.

However, there were no entrance examinations here.

Because the Disciples who came here were all 'Genius' recommended by various peaks.

As for whether the 'Genius' title was true, Chu Mo had no idea; all he had to do was lead these new students and new teachers to the designated teaching building.

That's right! It was a teaching building!

Alchemy Institute, Artifact Refining Institute, Lingjian Institute, Spirit Array Institute, Spirit Talisman Institute, Body Refining Institute, etc.—all the mainstream factions on the market were available here!

"Han Li, is this place... truly a closed-off education? Can I not be closed off?" Elder Yan, who had just enjoyed a short period of leisure, was dispatched by Qi Peak to be a visiting teacher here, and he felt utterly miserable.

Chu Mo patted his shoulder, introduced him to the various facilities around, and skillfully painted a picture of a bright future.

"As the first dean of the Artifact Refining Institute, you are glorious and great. Under your management, our Xuanxiao Sect's Genius Disciples will surely shine with their own brilliance on Xuanling Continent."

"Genius..."

Elder Yan's mouth twitched. He knew perfectly well what kind of people Qi Peak had sent.

They could be considered Geniuses, as their parents were Geniuses and they possessed some talent, but their personalities were too unruly, belonging to the type of unruly scions whom even their families couldn't control, and they loved causing trouble everywhere.

They were sent here simply to have this closed-off education temper their personalities.

If Qi Peak was like this, then presumably the other peaks were the same; the only exception might be Huo Tianyi of Lingjian Peak.

Huo Tianyi was obedient and a true Genius, but unfortunately, his Sword Heart was shattered, and he became a drunkard who spent his days with wine.

Recalling Huo Tianyi, Elder Yan couldn't help but ask, "Han Li, where is Huo Tianyi? I remember Peak Master Huo sent his son over early this morning. Where is he? Why haven't I seen him?"

Chu Mo paused, looked at Elder Yan, and asked suspiciously, "You want to see Huo Tianyi?"

"Did something happen to him?" Elder Yan's heart instantly leaped. Huo Tianyi was Peak Lord Huo Weixian's son. Although that guy verbally claimed not to care about this son, his actual behavior also showed no particular regard for him.

But if Huo Tianyi were to have an accident...

That guy would definitely fight desperately, and even in his desperate state, even the Sect Master would have to retreat and avoid his sharp edge for a while.

This Nascent Soul Stage kid in front of him would probably be in deep trouble!

Wait.

Heaven Sealing Demon Banning Array!

Good heavens, could this Heaven Sealing Demon Banning Array be used to defend against those enraged Elders and Peak Masters?

Thinking of this, Elder Yan felt he was getting closer and closer to the truth of the matter.

Chu Mo, at this moment, had no idea what he was imagining; he was just leading the way, arriving at a bamboo forest.

There was nothing else here, only an incredibly large jar.

"Why did you bring me here?" Elder Yan was puzzled. Weren't they going to see Huo Tianyi? Why come to a bamboo forest?

"Didn't you want to see Huo Tianyi? Look! See that jar in front? Huo Tianyi is inside!"

Chu Mo gestured towards the jar with his chin.

Elder Yan was shocked.

Putting Huo Tianyi in a jar, what kind of strange method was this? Didn't he say he was going to help Huo Tianyi regain his Sword Heart? Was this the method to regain his Sword Heart?

Chu Mo leaped onto the giant jar, lifted its lid, and a strong smell of alcohol diffused all around.

Right! This was a wine jar!

However, it wasn't an ordinary wine jar, and inside wasn't ordinary wine, but industrial alcohol with a purity of up to 99%.

An ordinary person in such a wine jar would definitely die, but if Huo Tianyi, as a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, truly died in there...

Chu Mo would definitely bury him immediately without a word, and personally write an experimental report for him: 'Nascent Soul Cultivator dies from alcohol poisoning; the strength of Nascent Soul Cultivators in this world is questionable.'

And conduct in-depth research on the relationship between alcohol and Cultivators, in order to unearth an alcohol that could kill a Dao Undergoing Tribulation powerful being.

However, fortunately, Huo Tianyi did not die inside, so Chu Mo did not need to research alcohol.

The moment the lid of the wine jar was lifted, a figure shot out from inside, heading straight for the sky.

Judging by his hurried appearance, he must have been unable to bear the pungent smell of alcohol and was going to take a bath.

However, as soon as the figure took flight, he was struck down by lightning that suddenly appeared in the sky, falling directly into the bamboo forest.

Seeing this, Chu Mo couldn't help but shake his head: "I told you the current peak is enveloped by the Heaven Sealing Demon Banning Array; even the Sect Master can't escape. You, kid, are truly stubborn!"

The Heaven Sealing Demon Banning Array covering the entire peak had not activated its killing formation, only the most insignificant trapping formation.

Even so, it was not something a mere Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator like Huo Tianyi could contend with.

A little bit of lightning power was a minor punishment as a warning.

Elder Yan walked into the bamboo forest and saw Huo Tianyi lying on the ground, charred black. His body emitted an indescribable smell, a pungent alcoholic odor mixed with the burnt smell of roasted meat.

He rubbed his nose and frowned, asking, "Didn't I ask you to help Huo Tianyi regain his Sword Heart? Why did you lock him in a wine jar? And, that wine jar of yours... looks quite familiar!"

"The wine jar was custom-made by your Qi Peak, and the bill was sent to Lingjian Peak. Its purpose is to make him quit drinking!"

At this point, he paused, looked at Elder Yan, and his expression became somewhat serious.

"Sword Cultivator! Sword Cultivator!"

"When traveling, one must fly with a sword. Do not fly with a sword when drinking, and do not drink when flying with a sword! He is not trying to be a Drunken Sword Immortal, so this alcohol must be given up, otherwise... it's easy to have flying accidents!"

"And the best way to make someone give up something is to make them feel disgusted by it!"

"Since he likes drinking so much, I'll choose an environment with alcohol for him to live in for a while! I don't believe he won't quit!"

Saying this, Chu Mo walked over to Huo Tianyi, casually broke off a small bamboo branch, and poked his butt.

"Get up! Keep drinking!"

"If you don't finish this jar of wine today, you'll still be in the wine jar tomorrow. One jar after another, how many jars there are! If you wait for tomorrow, everything will be wasted!"

"Why are you sleeping? Get up and party!"

Elder Yan's vision went black at the sight.

Is this kid reliable or not? He had never seen such a method before; don't ruin the person!

At this moment, seeing that Huo Tianyi had no reaction, Chu Mo shook his head helplessly again, "I can only use my ultimate move!"

Ultimate move?

Elder Yan leaned closer, wanting to see what kind of ultimate move it was, to secretly learn it, so it would be convenient for educating his Disciples in the future.

Chu Mo leaned close to Huo Tianyi's ear and whispered, "She never loved you at all!"

"Impossible! She loved me."

As soon as Huo Tianyi spoke, he felt his body lighten, and he fell into a giant jar opening.

Then, the light above him turned black, and he was once again confined in the wine jar. At the same time, a familiar voice entered his ears.

"When you let go, stop being a simp, are willing to quit drinking, and see things clearly, I will let you out. Otherwise, just stay put!"

"Although alcohol can make you escape reality and forget worries, too much accumulated negative emotion will defile your heart, which is not conducive to Cultivation."

"If you truly cannot let go, then you can choose another path: regain your Sword Heart, Cultivate diligently, fight your way to Shen Jian Sect, and reclaim everything you lost!"

"Let go, pick up."

"Two options, choose wisely."

"This concerns your future Dao of Cultivation."
