The lightning arcs in the Lightning Tempering Room descended again, and Mo Wuji could only guide them to bombard the 101st meridian. Just like the 100th meridian, guiding the lightning arc to impact the blocked meridian only increased his pain and did not loosen the blocked meridian in the slightest.

Mo Wuji simply drank all the Meridian Opening Solution. As he expected, the meridians in his body were opened to the 108th.

Mo Wuji knew very well that his 108 meridians were actually only 99, and the other nine were blocked and could not be considered meridians at all. Blocked meridians could not perform cyclical operation, nor could they circulate spiritual energy. Unless these blocked meridians were unblocked, it was the same as not opening them at all.

Mo Wuji didn't care about this. Although he didn't open the 100th meridian, he had reached the tenth level of Meridian Expansion, which meant he still had a chance to impact the Human Extremity Realm.

After an hour, the lightning arcs in the Lightning Tempering Room stopped. Mo Wuji cleaned himself up and opened the door to the Lightning Tempering Room.

He looked a little disheveled, but he was still in a very good mood. Being able to open up 99 meridians and advance to the tenth level of Meridian Expansion exceeded 99% of spiritual root cultivators.

Now, what he needed most was to attend some cultivation courses and then prepare for Spirit Building. After that, he would go to the Pill Tower to see Yan'er and hopefully spend some time talking with her.

Just as Mo Wuji left the Immortal Tempering Tower, Cen Shuyin opened the door to the Ice Tempering Room. When she came two hours ago, the Immortal Tempering Jade Plate outside the C-grade Lightning Tempering Room was still inserted. Now that the Immortal Tempering Jade Plate outside this Lightning Tempering Room had been removed, it meant that Mo Wuji, who had been cultivating here for more than a day, had just left.

Cen Shuyin quickened her pace, wanting to catch up with Mo Wuji. By the time she reached the first floor of the Immortal Tempering Tower, Mo Wuji had already gone far away.

...

"Senior Brother Mo, you're finally back. Today, Senior Dai is teaching Spiritual Meridian Cognition. Are you going to listen?" Before Mo Wuji reached his residence, he met Chao Buheng coming towards him.

Chao Buheng was used to Mo Wuji's always disheveled and scarred appearance.

"Of course, let's go, I'll go with you." Mo Wuji didn't even return to his residence and immediately planned to go to the lecture with Chao Buheng.

Hearing that Mo Wuji was willing to go to the lecture with him, Chao Buheng said happily, "Senior Brother Mo, let me tell you, Senior Dai Zhu is a Yuan Dan Realm expert, and he has the most profound research on spiritual roots and spiritual meridians. Every time he explains spiritual meridians, it is crowded with people, so we have to go early. We outer disciples have ten free opportunities to attend lectures. After exceeding ten times, we need to use contribution points."

"Junior Brother Chao, thank you." Mo Wuji patted Chao Buheng's shoulder. Chao Buheng was timid and afraid of trouble, but he was extremely eager to learn. Since coming to the outer peak of Wentian School, Mo Wuji had spent most of his time opening meridians, while Chao Buheng had spent most of his time cultivating and attending lectures. He probably used up his ten free lectures soon.

...

The place where Wentian School disciples attended lectures was in the Wentian Sermon Building, which was nearly half an hour away from the outer peak.

Chao Buheng was indeed early. After Mo Wuji followed him to register his identity jade plate in the Sermon Building and entered the Sermon Building's lecture hall, there were only two or three people there.

"Senior Brother Mo, let's sit here." Chao Buheng chose a seat in the back and on the side and said.

Mo Wuji pointed to the seat in the middle in confusion and asked, "Junior Brother Chao, the position here is naturally clearer to hear, and if there are any problems, you can ask questions in time. Why sit in the back?"

Chao Buheng quickly said, "Even if we sit in those positions, we will have to give them up later. The people here are very powerful. If we don't give them up, they will take action. Our cultivation is relatively low. Those who dare to sit in the front are basically top experts in the Meridian Expansion Realm, and some inner sect geniuses in the Meridian Expansion Realm come over..."

Mo Wuji was slightly taken aback, "Junior Brother Chao, are there no Spirit Building Realm cultivators coming to listen?"

Mo Wuji was not surprised that cultivators in the Meridian Expansion Realm in the inner sect came to listen to the lecture. He remembered that most of the outer sect disciples who climbed the Wentian Stairway were cultivators in the Spirit Building Realm. Don't these people listen to lectures?

Chao Buheng explained, "This is originally a place for disciples in the Meridian Expansion Realm to listen to lectures. Senior Dai is explaining spiritual meridians this time, and maybe there will be senior brothers in the Spirit Building Realm coming to listen to lectures. But we only have ten free lecture opportunities, and many senior brothers in the Spirit Building Realm probably don't want to waste the opportunities."

Mo Wuji nodded and said, "Junior Brother Chao, let's still sit in the front."

Listening to lectures was different from climbing the Wentian Stairway. Mo Wuji could be low-key when climbing the Wentian Stairway because it involved his own interests and safety. Listening to lectures also involved his own interests, and he must not be low-key.

If he sat in the back and missed something, or if he didn't understand something and didn't have the opportunity to ask the lecturer, it would be a great loss.

Wasn't there a first-come, first-served rule for grabbing seats? This was something he would often do in the future. If he sat in the back for the first time, it would mean that he would always sit in the back in the future. Besides, this was a place for disciples in the Meridian Expansion Realm to listen to lectures. Mo Wuji, at the tenth level of Meridian Expansion, was not afraid of any disciple in the Meridian Expansion Realm.

Seeing Mo Wuji sitting in the best seat in the front, Chao Buheng was sweating anxiously. However, he was not very familiar with Mo Wuji and could not pull Mo Wuji to the back.

Mo Wuji saw that Chao Buheng did not move, so he let him go. He and Chao Buheng only lived in District D and could not force Chao Buheng to listen to him.

The first few cultivators who arrived were also a little surprised to see Mo Wuji sitting in the best seat in the front in a righteous manner. Then they showed an expression of preparing to watch a good show. In their opinion, Mo Wuji would crawl away from the seat like a well-behaved grandson in a while.

It took nearly an hour before people gradually entered the lecture hall. Mo Wuji was also impressed by Chao Buheng's serious and studious nature. How much earlier did he have to arrive?

The cultivators who came in all saw the conspicuous Mo Wuji at first glance. An outer sect cultivator with messy hair and some scars on his face was actually sitting in the best seat in the first row.

Some cultivators even smiled and greeted Mo Wuji as they passed by, "Junior brother, you have a lot of courage. I admire you."

After another half an incense stick of time, when the hall was almost full, five cultivators wearing yellow inner sect disciple robes walked in.

Walking in the front was a tall young man who looked a bit handsome. Mo Wuji estimated that this young man was at most sixteen years old.

This young man was obviously the leader among these people. He walked straight to Mo Wuji, stared at Mo Wuji for a while, then raised one foot, stepped on a chair next to Mo Wuji, pointed to his crotch, "Newcomer, crawl over from here, and I will forgive you for your rudeness this time."

While the young man was speaking, the other four yellow-robed inner sect disciples had blocked Mo Wuji's escape route.

The hall suddenly became silent. Everyone stared at Mo Wuji, wanting to know if Mo Wuji would crawl over or be beaten directly and then forced to crawl over.

No matter what the final result was, in the eyes of everyone in the entire Sermon Hall, it was certain that Mo Wuji would crawl under the young man's crotch.

Chao Buheng was pacing anxiously. These people were all leaders among the inner sect disciples, and each of them had a strong backer. That young man was even a favored son of heaven. Once Mo Wuji really crawled over, then Mo Wuji would be ruined.

Mo Wuji slowly stood up. He could tell that these people were all in the Meridian Expansion Realm. He would definitely not give up his seat. He had heard the story of Red Cloud. Ancestor Red Cloud lost his chance to become a saint and eventually lost his life because he gave up his seat in Zixiao Palace. Of course, this was just a Chinese legend, but the principle was the same.

"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I said..."

"Slap!" The young man's roar was not finished when Mo Wuji slapped him on the face, and the whole person flew out. At that moment, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his entire brain was buzzing. All kinds of golden lights danced in front of his eyes.

Fortunately, at this time, he crashed into the wall of the hall.

The Sermon Hall instantly fell silent. The yellow-robed inner sect cultivators reacted after two breaths and rushed towards Mo Wuji frantically. Some even took out their swords.

Mo Wuji swiped his hand on his leggings, and the sharp knife in his hand also slashed out.

"Clang clang clang..." Sparks of collision burst out, and two cultivators holding swords immediately felt a powerful Essence Power surge over. This power was not something they could resist at all.

While these four yellow-robed disciples were still in a daze, Mo Wuji kicked out four times in a row.

"Bang bang bang bang!" The four yellow-robed disciples flew up like sandbags, kicked by Mo Wuji for dozens of feet and smashed into the wall of the Sermon Hall. The chests of two of them were stained with blood because they did not have time to draw their long swords and were injured by Mo Wuji's sharp knife.

Mo Wuji sighed in his heart. After advancing to the tenth level of Meridian Expansion, he really didn't know where his strength was. Now, after fighting with five cultivators in the Meridian Expansion Realm, he clearly felt how powerful his strength was.

He almost crushed these five so-called experts in the Meridian Expansion Realm in an overwhelming manner. If he hadn't shown mercy, the two cultivators who hadn't drawn their swords would have had their hearts pierced.

The hall was silent. Although these people were not the strongest cultivators in the Meridian Expansion Realm of Wentian School, they were definitely experts in the Meridian Expansion Realm.

When did such a powerful outer sect disciple come? One second killed five inner sect disciples? Or was this person in the Spirit Building Realm? No, there was no trace of spiritual energy on this person. How could he be a Spirit Building Realm disciple?

Mo Wuji slowly walked to the young man in yellow, who still had a look of horror and disbelief. How could there be such a powerful outer sect disciple? Impossible, this person must be a Spirit Building Realm expert.

Mo Wuji squatted down and slapped the young man's face hard a few times, "Do you know why I don't want you to crawl through my crotch?"

The young man in yellow shook his head blankly. The other yellow-robed cultivators who were blasted over by Mo Wuji also didn't dare to speak. Although it was just a simple confrontation, they knew that even if the five of them were added together, they wouldn't be enough for a few kicks. Fortunately, this was the Sermon Hall. If it were outside, maybe the five of them would have been silenced.

Mo Wuji sneered, "Because I'm afraid of dirtying my crotch, you idiot. Stay away from me next time you see me, otherwise I'll beat you every time I see you. Don't lie here, go sit aside."

The reason why Mo Wuji told these people to go to the side was because he was worried that the lecturing elder would come and see these guys lying here like dead pigs, which would be a waste of time and prevent him from listening to the lecture.
