Although this was Li Fan's first time seriously teaching as a teacher, he had taught other summoners before.

This situation, however, was a first for him.

He had never even heard of anyone practicing summoner powers until they coughed up blood—it was indeed a bit exaggerated.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

At this moment, Li Pu raised his hand, indicating to everyone not to be nervous.

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he actually felt quite comfortable.

It was as if something had been blocked for years and was suddenly cleared.

At the same time, however, his chest felt a slight pain, which was a symptom of injury.

Unfortunately, [Father's Love] only worked on others, not on himself.

Otherwise, he would have pounded his chest like a gorilla right then and there.

In fact, Li Fan didn't know, and neither did Li Pu.

Normally, a summoner's power yarn would contain two colors mixed together, but in reality, it was a single complete energy line.

It's just that it's tangled and chaotic, which is why it appears yarn-like.

A summoner needs to slowly sort and adjust it themselves to turn it into a regular shape.

However, Li Pu's yarns... were two lines.

Pure red, and pure blue.

One was the summoner's power, and the other was the summoned beast's power.

This is why it was so difficult for him to complete introspection.

The unstable tangled structure of the two energy lines created a repulsive force, scattering his probing thoughts.

So his talent wasn't bad; on the contrary, it was extremely good.

If someone else encountered this situation, they might not be able to complete their introspection even in seven to ten days.

Mixed-blood summoners are not unheard of, but regardless of how mixed they are, other people always have a stronger and a weaker aspect of summoner's power and summoned beast's power within them.

Li Pu's situation, where the two forces were perfectly balanced, was quite rare.

Not only were there two forces, but their purity was 100%.

Controlling such energy lines was far more difficult than a simple 1+1 equals 2.

After a bit of a rest, Li Pu continued practicing.

Unfortunately, by the end of class, he still hadn't made any progress.

Meanwhile, Wu Guinan's summoner power release showed initial results.

"After you go back, you still have to practice diligently."

Before class ended, Li Fan instructed the two.

This remark was directed at Li Pu.

With Wu Guinan's current level, when the textbook arrives in two weeks, he could undoubtedly proceed to the next stage of instruction.

"Remember during the monthly exam not to disgrace me."

He lit a cigarette as he spoke.

"Monthly exam? What monthly exam." x2

Both students spoke in unison.

"Hmm? Didn't anyone tell you?"

Li Fan took a deep drag on his cigarette before explaining.

It turned out that this semester's summoner skill course included a monthly exam.

The test project for the monthly exam was to measure the mastery of the skill.

Based on the ranking in the monthly exam, corresponding points would be awarded.

Including the neighboring [Sprint] class, there were a total of 50 people who chose [Sprint] in this batch.

The monthly exam ranking was divided among these 50 people.

"Teacher, are the points obtained here the ones used to exchange for school items?"

Wu Guinan immediately became interested.

Because just yesterday they learned from Wang Nuonuo and Chang Shoushang that the school's points could be exchanged for items.

Higher grade summoned beasts of senior students were obtained from directional summoning scrolls that were exchanged with points.

Even a level 1 summoning scroll could at least guarantee the summoning of a D-level summoned beast.

"Yes."

Although a new teacher, Li Fan understood some basic things.

His affirmative response also intrigued Li Pu.

If he earned enough points, couldn't he upgrade his current level 3 summoning scroll to level 4 or even 5?

But with his current slow learning progress, could he really achieve a good score in the monthly exam after a month? He felt unsure.

"Teacher, in the monthly exam, if you can outrun others without using skills, does it count?"

Thinking of this, Li Pu raised his hand.

"Huh?"

Li Fan was taken aback by the question.

He hadn't really considered that possibility.

Since Li Pu dared to say it, it meant he was quite confident.

At worst, he could break the seal.

He felt that even if someone like Wu Guinan activated [Sprint], they might not be able to outrun him.

"What are you looking at me for!"

Wu Guinan seemed very sensitive to this condescending attitude.

"You should focus on practicing and stop thinking about shortcuts."

Li Fan shook his head and said, "Even if you outrun them this time, it won't last."

"Next month or the month after, once everyone's [Sprint] proficiency improves, it would be impossible to win just by running physically."

He had some understanding of his fast, albeit limping, student.

To be honest, new [Sprint] users might not be able to outrun him.

"I understand."

The teacher's implicit acknowledgment relieved Li Pu.

It meant that at least before the next or the following monthly exam, he was quite competitive.

If he couldn't master [Sprint] in such a long time, he might as well bash his head against a scarecrow.

And so, Li Pu's first class at Xidu University officially came to an end.

After having dinner and returning to the dorm, Wu Guinan went to another dorm, while Li Pu sat on his bed and resumed meditating.

Actually, Li Fan was right; he couldn't avoid using summoner skills forever.

So he had decided to close himself off for training, except for the [Sprint] class, until he mastered the external release of summoner power.

As for other courses, he's skipping them anyway.

Even the task of hunting for money was temporarily halted.

And for basic needs like meals, he'd ask the tree spirit to help get food; otherwise, what was the point of the roommate?

...

Two weeks later, it was another [Sprint] class.

Li Pu and Wu Guinan arrived at the training ground on time.

This time, there was an additional green figure playing with the Rolling Turtle nearby—that was the scarecrow Li Pu had retrieved from the dungeon.

When he found this guy, it was drinking from a nearly dried-up well.

Upon inquiring, Li Pu realized the scarecrow didn't know that two weeks had passed.

After leaving the dungeon, he checked it thoroughly inside and out, including the scarecrow's panel.

Finding nothing unusual, he set his mind at ease.

Incidentally, he even fused a skill for it.

[LV1 Willpower Antibody (D)]: Immune to all Mushroom Poison/Fear effects

Perhaps because both [Mushroom Poison Antibody] and [Undead Will] were D-level skills, the skill's level didn't increase this time.

But overall, there was still an enhancement.
