My Fairy Growth System-Chapter 405 Don’t You Have Any Faults?
Venerable Zi Gong saw Yu Qingtan enter. He put down his teacup, stood up, and smiled as he stepped forward to greet her.
"Fairy Qingtan, welcome to the Eastern Region Branch," voiced Venerable Zi Gong, filled with enthusiasm and warmth.
Yu Qingtan quickly took out the recommendation letter from Venerable Shouyi and, with a bow, said, "Fairy Qingtan greets Headmaster Zi Gong!"
Venerable Zi Gong received the recommendation letter, gently unfolded it, and after a glance, laughed and said, "Fairy Qingtan's renowned name has long reached my ears. Only today do I see that your reputation is indeed well-deserved.
Shouyi mentioned you wished to visit here for study. We are, of course, very welcoming. Please, take a seat!"
Once the three of them were seated, Venerable Zi Gong spoke again, "Fairy Qingtan, you serve as an Elder in the Southeast Branch, and both your strength and wisdom are extraordinary. What are your intentions for visiting us to study this time?"
Yu Qingtan offered a slight smile and replied, "Headmaster flatters me. My primary purpose here is to leverage the precious lands of the Eastern Region Branch to study some new cultivation techniques and spells.
Also, I wish to exchange insights with fellow cultivators here and to make mutual progress."
This indeed was Yu Qingtan's initial purpose for her visit—she wanted to create an entirely new cultivation method suitable for cultivators of all Five Elements Spirit Roots, and one that could be practiced more rapidly than existing methods.
The key aspect was to narrow the gap in cultivation speed between different Spirit Roots. For example, currently, cultivators with four Spirit Roots might only cultivate at one percent of the speed of those with a Single Spiritual Root. The new method could reduce this gap to within tenfold.
Yu Qingtan already had some preliminary concepts for this method but needed more references from existing methods. Hence, she came to the cradle of the All-World Academy, the Eastern Region Branch.
Venerable Zi Gong nodded at her words and said, "That's excellent, excellent. Our All-World Academy has always upheld an open and inclusive attitude, welcoming talents from all walks to come for exchange and study.
Since our branches are one family and you are an Elder of the Southeast Branch, I also appoint you as an Elder of the Eastern Region Branch.
Xiao Shichen, hereafter, please take Fairy Qingtan to the library to select spells and divine skills and arrange for her to interact with various disciples."
"Yes, Master," Xiao Shichen replied respectfully.
"Thank you for your high regard, Headmaster!" Yu Qingtan accepted the Elder Identity Jade that Venerable Zi Gong handed to her, expressing her gratitude.

Afterward, Venerable Zi Gong and the other person continued to converse with Yu Qingtan on topics such as the path of cultivation and the philosophy of life, enjoying their discussion greatly.
Yu Qingtan was not only impressed by Venerable Zi Gong's profound cultivation level and extensive knowledge, but she was also influenced by his broad-mindedness and wise thinking.
Venerable Zi Gong and his companion also gained a new appreciation for Yu Qingtan's talents and comprehension.
Before they realized it, it was nearly noon. Venerable Zi Gong looked out at the bright sunshine outside the window and said, "Let's stop here for today. Xiao Shichen, take Fairy Qingtan for a tour around the academy, and we can start studying tomorrow."
"Yes, Master," said Xiao Shichen as he stood up and gestured for Yu Qingtan to follow.
Yu Qingtan also stood up and, with a bow, said, "Thank you, Headmaster. Fairy Qingtan takes her leave."
After they left the study, Xiao Shichen took Yu Qingtan to familiarize herself with the academy. Along the way, he introduced her to the various facilities and regulations of the Eastern Region Branch, as well as the local customs and particularities of cultivation in the Eastern Region.
When they arrived at the Spirit Beast Court of the academy, they saw a crowd of over a hundred people gathered ahead, seemingly watching some excitement.
True Master Xiao Shichen and Yu Qingtan were curious, so they moved closer as well, and the onlookers, seeing it was Xiao Shichen and a breathtakingly beautiful woman, greeted them and made way.
"Don't you think you're in the wrong too?" Just as they arrived at the front of the crowd, Yu Qingtan heard a hysterical female voice. Stay tuned to novelbuddy
"Slap~" What followed was the loud sound of a slap and a man's roar, "Yes, it's my fault, my fault for coming back too early!"
This scene left both Xiao Shichen and Yu Qingtan slightly taken aback, as they hadn't expected to stumble upon a quarrel in the academy.
In the middle of the crowd, a man dressed in a green long robe, with angry eyes, was loudly berating a disheveled woman in a pink dress.
Beside the man was an enormous third-stage flying spiritual beast, a Roc.
The woman had a clear red mark on her face, evidently the slap had not been light. In her eyes flashed a trace of humiliation, but more than that, anger and indignation.
"Xiao Mai, why did you hit Xiao Mei?" True Master Xiao Shichen stepped forward and spoke to the man.
"Master Xiao!" The man, Xiao Mai, seeing True Master Xiao Shichen approaching, his face changed slightly, but still he said sorrowfully and indignantly, "This woman, as soon as I leave our dormitory, she brought another man back to engage in improper conduct. I was just teaching her a lesson!"
Xiao Mai and Xiao Mei were both formal students of the Spirit Beast Court and also a couple, which is why they lived in the same dormitory.
"Oh? Is that so?" True Master Xiao Shichen frowned and turned to the woman called Xiao Mei, asking, "Xiao Mei, is this true?"
Xiao Mei's eyes were brimming with tears, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall. She looked up at Xiao Shichen, her voice trembling but firm, "Master Xiao, I haven't! He... he's talking nonsense! I was just discussing cultivation experiences with a fellow disciple!"
"Hmph, discussing cultivation experiences that led to the bed, do you think everyone here is a fool?" Xiao Mai scoffed.
"I... I didn't, we are innocent!" Xiao Mei said with her head lowered, her voice filled with grievance, as tears fell uncontrollably.
"Brother Xiao Shichen, I have here a Truth Talisman, which can distinguish true from false upon examination!" Yu Qingtan took out a talisman, watching Xiao Mei with a playful look, she said.
"That would be excellent," Xiao Shichen said.
Hearing this, Xiao Mei panicked, not expecting that such a trivial matter would lead Master Xiao to use a treasure like the Truth Talisman. She rushed forward and clung to Xiao Mai's leg, sobbing, "Amai, I have wronged you, I was momentarily bewitched, please forgive me!"
"Humph, from now on, we are through, no more ties between us," Xiao Mai snorted coldly, repelling Xiao Mei with spiritual power, mounted the spiritual beast Roc, apologized to Xiao Shichen and Yu Qingtan, and left the place.
Xiao Mei, dumped so decisively by her own lover in front of everyone, was filled with pain and regret.
She sat powerlessly on the ground, tears falling like broken pearls. True Master Xiao Shichen sighed inwardly, offered a few words of comfort, and had a few female students take her back to her residence.
Having encountered such a mess, Yu Qingtan lost the mood to wander around the academy. Xiao Shichen led Yu Qingtan to a quiet courtyard. It was an elegant environment with fresh air, a perfect place for cultivation.
"Fairy Qingtan, this will be your residence," Xiao Shichen said, pointing to the courtyard, "There's a formation in the yard that isolates external disturbances. If you need anything, just let me know."
"Thank you, Brother Xiao Shichen," Yu Qingtan said gratefully, "This place is serene and refined, just to my liking."
