The initially orderly Medicine Hall was plunged into chaos, because of Shangguang Tuo's frenzy.

The unluckiest were the few students who were standing right at the entrance of the Medicine Hall and were just about to get their beast blood. They were unable to escape in time and were injured by Shangguang Tuo's blade-like douqi.

"The Beast Blood Fusion failed?" Yun Sheng signaled Gu Feng to start chanting, to prevent the douqi from injuring them.

"If there are successful Beast Blood Fusions, naturally there will also be failures. But Senior Brother Shangguan has already fused many times, he shouldn't have failed, ah," Lei Hu briefly explained the effect of Beast Blood Fusion.

For magicians, the Beast Blood Fusion was a whole foreign concept, but to warriors, especially the disciples of several major Martial Halls on the mainland, Beast Blood Fusion was essential to achieving higher strength.

It was a general fact that, even though demon beasts were usually not too intelligent, their magic perception (Soulstone) and physique (beast blood and flesh) were far superior to human's.

Unlike magicians, the warriors of the Wu Ji Continent did not have magic scepters, nor did they have any use for Soulstones, they could only strengthen themselves through beast blood.

Every warrior, when breaking through a realm, would collect beast blood and perform a Beast Blood Fusion.

Thanks to Beast Blood Fusion, a stronger physique could be obtained, so as to better absorb douqi.

Beast Blood Fusion was divided into nine layers, the effect of the fusion varied according to the cultivation base and talent of the warrior.

But so many benefits, also came with a risk.

Most of the beast blood still possessed an extremely violent force, which made the process very dangerous, especially with high-rank demon beast blood. If you were even a bit careless, the force would cause the warrior to go insane, almost becoming like a murderous and inhumane demon beast themself.

From Lei Hu's mouth, Yun Sheng and the others learnt that Shangguan Tuo was a well-known figure in the inner court. His cultivation was considered to be only bit worse than Cheng Bai's, but he has been stuck at a bottleneck for a while now. He was unable to break through to the next realm.

A while ago, there were rumors in the Martial Hall, that when you fused with the beast blood of the Earth Tyrant Bear, that was snatched from the Crown Prince that day, you would instantly break through!

It was very likely that Shangguan Tuo fused with this blood.

Yun Sheng saw that the Medicine Hall had no hope of returning to order, and that causalities were appearing around her. If she didn't act now, the situation would only worsen.

Yun Sheng lowered her head to ask Lei Hu, suddenly shouting: "Senior Brother Bu!"

Shangguan Tuo's body staggered, as if scared, before he looked behind him."

Almost at the same time, Yun Sheng's body flew through the air like a butterfly, arriving at Shangguan Tuo's back effortlessly. In her hands, she held a bone needle, aiming it at the Slumber acupuncture point of Shangguan Tuo.

At that moment, Shangguan Tuo realized that there was nobody in front of him and became furious.

He felt someone sneaking up behind him, and just when Yun Sheng's bone needle stabbed into his skin, a layer of douqi gathered at the place.

This layer of douqi caused Yun Sheng's aim to be off by a few centimeters.

The next moment, Shangguan Tuo, who had been acting so crazy until now, fell to the ground, trembling.

At this time, an elder rushed out of the Medicine Hall and when he saw Yun Sheng standing next to Shangguan Tuo, he sternly scolded, "Who are you!"

"Elder Zhang, she is an exchange student from the Royal Magic Academy. We came to collect the beast blood, unexpectedly we came across Senior Brother Shangguan who rushed out in a frenzy," Lei Hu said with a respectful demeanor, as he hurriedly stepped forward.

Yun Sheng heard the name of the person who came, and looked at their appearance. His features were seven to eight points similar to Zhang Zipo's, only a bit older.

This person was clad in a doctor's robe, and Yun Sheng noticed that on his belt, also hung a Medicine Association's Senior Doctor identification card.

This person, mentioned earlier by Luo Qing, was the father of Zhang Zipo, Wu Xuan Peerless Hall's Elder Zhang of Medicine Hall.

When Elder Zhang first heard that Yun Sheng was an exchange student from the Royal Magic Academy, he only snorted his nose.

Elder Zhang, who was named with the mighty name Chao, was originally only a Medicine Man in the Medicine Association. But because he had some ability in refining, he left the Medicine Association after obtaining the qualifications of a Senior Doctor.

After leaving the Medicine Association, Elder Zhang, by coincidence obtained the insights of a former Imperial Doctor, and with it, entered the Wu Xuan Peerless Hall.

There was no one in the Martial Hall who was able to surpass his capabilities in refinement, so he didn't put the people of Wu Xuan Peerless Hall in his eyes at all.

His only son, Zhang Zipo, started suffering from health problems for a while now, so Elder Zhang checked his condition, it turned out he wasn't actually sick, but his skin was covered with a special poisonous powder.

When Elder Zhang learned of this, he immediately asked Zhang Zipo about the source of this powder, and discovered that Zhang Zipo had smelled the same aroma on a female disciple of the outer court.

After smelling that fragrance, Zhang Zipo's whole body developed a red rash, with only a slight touch, the itch became unbearable.

Elder Zhang sought out several female warriors. and after some interrogation, he recovered a fragrance pouch from them.

This pouch turned out to originate from the female exchange student of the Royal Magic Academy.

Elder Zhang then realized that it was Yun Sheng who was behind it.

The worst thing was, Elder Zhang couldn't even announce that Zhang Zipo was poisoned, because if Zhang Zipo didn't harass the female disciples, he wouldn't have come in contact with the powder.

Elder Zhang wasn't the kind of person to eat useless losses. Today Yun Sheng and the others sent themselves to his doorstep, this meant that he would naturally not let go of this great opportunity.

"Today's beast blood is already used up. Not only is it used up for today, you don't need to come collect it next month either, the Medicine Hall only provides beast blood to warriors. As for you, Lei Hu, you are a warrior, but you are willing to steep so low as to work with magicians, you also do not need to come collect beast blood in the future." Elder Zhang, as the Elder of Medicine Hall was in charge of the Medicine Hall's beast blood distribution. So, he was able to shun the very hated exchange students of their beast blood, he even implicated Lei Hu.

"Elder Zhang!" Lei Hu was dumbfounded.

Thirteen and fourteen was the best age for warriors to strengthen their physique. If Lei Hu was hindered now, he would be a big step behind his peers, giving him even less of a chance to join the inner court one day.

Elder Zhang felt triumphant, a student like Lei Hu, without background and average strength, Elder Zhang wasn't worried about offending someone like that at all.

This made Yun Sheng's gums itch.

Truly, like father like son, Zhang Zipo already was human scum and his father was the same.

"Lei Hu, no need to beg him, his beast blood isn't needed. The reason why Senior Brother Shangguan has gone crazy was also because of the beast blood he refined," Yun Sheng said sarcastically. She did not care to beg such a person.
