Chapter 87 - Blue Water Institute

After Bai Rouyun’s beast cores were counted, they were returned to her, and she found a place to sit down while waiting for the Royal Hunting Feast to end.

There was still time until evening, and more and more experts streamed out from within the forest, but even so, most of the people who came out had some degrees of injury.

The final one to come out was the Crown Prince and his group. His face was pale, and he felt his palms being sweaty.

He knew that his Royal father would blame him for his younger sister’s death, but he still did not know how to put the blame on Bai Rouyun.

He dragged his body to the table to count his cores, and while he had quite a few, he did not get close to Bai Rouyun.

In fact, no one got close to Bai Rouyun when it came to beast cores.

The official in charge of counting the cores was feeling uncomfortable. The Royal Hunting Feast was made for the sake of the Crown Prince having a rise to prominence, but now, not only did they lose Princess Xing, but they also lost an Immemorial Chamomile.

"The winner is Miss Bai Rouyun, Princess Yun," the man finally said after clearing his throat, but his voice was shaking.

"In the second place is his Royal Highness, the Crown Prince."

"And third place goes to the Prime Minister’s son, Jin Wei."

"First place gets an Immemorial Chamomile, and one of the three quotas to enter the Blue Water Institute."

"Second place gets five thousand gold coins, and one of the quotas to enter the Blue Water Institute."

"Third place gets thousand gold, and the last of Riluo Empire’s quotas to enter the Blue Water Institute."

Bai Rouyun listened in confusion. What was this about the Blue Water Institute? She had never before heard about such a place, and why didn’t she know that this was one of the prizes she could win?

Looking at her puzzled expression, Little Chu, who was standing in the crowd, felt like facepalming. She was the madam of the Eternal Shadow Palace; if she wanted to enter an institute, her husband could pull some strings and let her join the Holy Dragon Institute or the Cloudsoar Imperial Academy.

But when he looked at Bai Rouyun, it seemed as if she was quite pleased with the Blue Water Institute.

The truth was that, since her past life, Bai Rouyun wanted to be taught systematically this time. Although she had much experience and could benefit from this, she was, after all, learning everything in a trial and error kind of way.

If she could have someone teaching her, how much better would that be?

Also, who knew how long Li Moyun would be at the front line? She could not very well visit him, and staying in the capital of the Riluo Empire seemed quite a waste if she wanted to increase her strength and progress in her cultivation.

So the Blue Water Institute was a brilliant idea for her to move forward.

Bai Rouyun bowed to the Emperor and to the Officials to show her thanks as she accepted two items. One was a jade box with the Immemorial Chamomile; the other was a letter in which her invitation to the Blue Water Institute was written.

Bai Rouyun quickly stuffed both things into the Primal Chaos Space. This place was much safer than even a storage item, as it was bound to her soul specifically. No one else could steal it.

Xiao Bao accepted the items, and while he placed the letter in the hut, he opened the jade box, only to find that the Immemorial Chamomile still had its roots attached.

A smile appeared on his lips, and he instantly planted it. It would merely take a day for it to sprout seeds, and then he would be able to make a whole field of Immemorial Chamomiles. He could already imagine his mother’s happy face when she saw it.

Bai Rouyun was connected to the Primal Chaos Pagoda, so she could easily understand Xiao Bao’s thoughts, and she could not help but smile indulgently. Although she had forced him to become her adopted son, he still cared about her, and she would never mistreat him.

Seeing that all the excitement had finished, Bai Rouyun found Little Chu, and the two of them boarded the carriage and drove back to the Imperial Capital.

In the carriage, Bai Rouyun took out the invitation to the Blue River Institute and looked it over. The institute was located in Xiyang Country, and while it was not the biggest country on the continent, it was amongst the bigger ones.

However, Bai Rouyun was not dumb. Since the younger generation from the Richu Empire had been invited, it was an institute for the more common people. It was not an institute that belonged to the upper echelon cultivation world.

Even so, it was a good beginning for her. Her strength was still too meager to enter the cultivation world.

There was a month and a half left before it was time for the entrance ceremony to start, so Bai Rouyun had to hurry and prepare for departure.

As soon as they returned to the Imperial City, Bai Rouyun went into closed-door cultivation.

She entered the Primal Chaos Pagoda and began refining medicines. Fortunately, her herbs had grown for a long time, and she had many hundreds of fields, all of them full of different herbs. Although none of them were over a hundred years yet, they were getting close.

Bai Rouyun made a whole batch of Qi Returning Pills, and she also made ten Marrow-Cleansing Pills.

Apart from these, she made some healing pills known as Returning Spring Pills.

After finishing all of this, she hurriedly left the Yun palace and rushed towards the Thousand Treasure Pavilion.
