The Emperor's Daughter Arrives: Upgrade to Fight Monsters and Find Husbands

This gift-giving event broadened Jiutang's horizons. There really was everything there. There was nothing they had not seen, except what they had not thought of.

For example, now.

It was Pu Yuan's turn. Pu Yuan fumbled for a long time, and under the expectant gazes of the four people, he dug in his pocket and took out four shiny wooden spoons...

It's not very round, and has some edges and corners all over.

Although the four were a little surprised, they still took it with a smile and said thank you.

"Brother Pu Yuan, is there any explanation for this?" Jiu Tang couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

Pu Yuan's chubby face was flushed and he was a little shy. He explained: "The spoon has a good meaning. It means that you will not have to worry about food and drink every day in the future. I think there is nothing more important than eating. And..."

Pu Yuan scratched his head: "I made these wooden spoons myself, and I specially got the wood near the college. Although they look a bit rough, the thought is what matters. Hehe..."

Qing Wu continued, "Whether we have anything delicious to eat, we still have to rely on Chef Pu Yuan!"

The last one was Ye Xing, who waited until everyone had finished sending their gifts and there was less crowding in front of the four people before he stepped forward. Ye Xing raised his hand, and four small beads appeared in his thin and pale hand.

"This is what I condensed using my own spatial ability. It can be crushed and disappear into the void. However, my ability is still weak. The farthest I can teleport you is twenty miles away."

The four of them were all surprised. If that was the case, they could escape at any time if they couldn't win. Twenty miles away, the enemy would definitely not be able to catch up. It was simply a life-saving weapon!

The gift-giving session finally ended. It took more than 30 people nearly an hour to give their gifts. Since then, they have all gotten to know each other and can call each other by name. When this session was over, the mountain of things in front of the four people almost buried them.

Jiutang smiled, put everything in front of him into the space, and stood up.

"Thank you for the gifts, I like them very much. But since everyone has given us so many gifts, I feel a little embarrassed if I don't prepare some gifts in return. How about..."

Jiutang tilted his head and thought for a while, then waved his hand and thirty-five bottles of neatly arranged pills appeared in front of him: "I'll give these to everyone as a gift, please don't despise them."

"This is... a pill?" The onlookers' eyes lit up. "How can you say you dislike it! It's hard to find a pill maker. Even a pill of slightly better quality will cost a lot of money. Miss Nine is really..."

“It’s really extraordinary!”

In their third-rate country, ordinary third- and fourth-grade alchemists are the targets of snatching by all major forces. If a family can have a third- or fourth-grade alchemist, it is considered a noble family!

Seeing this, Qingwu and Dongfang Xiao hurriedly distributed the pills in front of Jiutang.

A student who was given the elixir first couldn't help but open the lid out of curiosity, and exclaimed: "This... Is this elixir of grade five or above? Is Miss Nine an alchemist?"

The academy has a weapon refiner named Teacher Mu, so they don't lack spiritual weapons, and the lowest one is of heaven grade. Although they can sell spiritual weapons to exchange for elixirs, it is limited after all, and there is no way to buy so many high-grade elixirs.

Everyone's expectant eyes fell on Jiutang, and the air became quiet for a moment.

It was not until Jiutang smiled and nodded amid everyone's expectant gazes that the scene suddenly became lively again.

"Great! I didn't expect that Ninth Miss is not only beautiful, but also stronger than Sister Xiyang. Now..."

Someone responded, "Now he is actually an alchemist! Doesn't that mean our academy will really take off in the future?"

Everyone laughed and played together.

Li Wei waved his hand and said, "If you ask me, we should take advantage of this day to have a drink and have some fun. Isn't that right?"

As he spoke, Li Wei took out four or five jars of wine from his storage bag, unscrewed the corks and patted them: "These are all newly produced rice wines. Don't worry, everyone can drink them. They won't make you drunk!"

Seeing Li Hu and Baozi standing by with expectant looks on their faces, Li Wei immediately poured a small bowl for each of them.

"Brother Li, I didn't expect you to have this hobby."

Li Wei smiled, picked up a jar and poured it for the girls and younger students, saying, "I guessed that today would be a happy day, so I specially prepared some. Hey, Ye Xing, this wine doesn't taste good to me, why don't you take out some of yours?"

Ye Xing was still dressed the same as when Jiutang first saw him, in black with a quiver on his back. He was half leaning against a tree, drinking from his wine gourd.

Hearing Li Wei calling him, he was stunned for a moment, but without any hesitation, he waved his hand neatly, and two slightly smaller jars appeared on the ground: "Take it, but this wine is strong, you guys take it easy."

"Oh, who are you looking down on?" Li Wei smiled and patted Ye Xing's shoulder, but Ye Xing brushed him off with disdain. He didn't care and just joked, "You're really nice today. Normally, you wouldn't give it to me when I asked you for it."

Ye Xing turned his face away, curled his lips in a very faint smile, and stopped looking at him.

"Brother Li, let's go together." As soon as the liquor was in hand, Dong Anchen and Li Wei came together arm in arm.

What surprised Jiutang was that the girl named Lin Changming also poured herself a bowl, put her nose to the edge of the bowl, and took a deep breath in ecstasy. Seeing Jiutang looking at her in surprise, Lin Changming raised the bowl and smiled, with a bit more boldness in her smile that was not there before.

“This is powerful enough!”

Jiutang was dumbfounded, thinking to himself that one really can't judge a book by its cover.

Since they had already recognized each other, they quickly integrated into the group of thirty people. Because they had drinks, the thirty-nine people formed groups of several people and played rock-paper-scissors. Some of those who were unlucky had already drunk several bowls of wine in a short while.

"If I remember correctly, we still have to train tomorrow..." Someone mumbled this but it didn't cause any ripples.

Everyone chooses not to hear.

Everyone kept moving their hands, and said impatiently, "When you play, you have to have fun."

"Yes, today is a great day for us Yinzhu, so let's not talk about training. Now why don't we just sing!"

"I know this!" Dongfang Xiao was happy when someone brought it up. "I learned it in advance. Why don't I start it?"

A young man standing in the center immediately took two steps back, bent his body solemnly and saluted gracefully: "Please, Miss Dongfang." Unfortunately, he was defeated in a second when he met his companion's eyes, and walked to his companion with shaking shoulders.

Dongfang Xiao cleared his throat, and the scene immediately quieted down. He spoke under everyone's expectant gazes: "Time flies..."

Everyone immediately took up the conversation and the atmosphere became joyful again.

“Time passes by, and even though the road ahead is uncertain, I wish to be your beacon, accompanying you through the long night;

Even if we are far apart in the future, I still recall the scene tonight. We have met several times in my dreams, how can we part...”

Accompanied by the starlight lit by fireflies, a group of boys and girls sat on the soft grass woven out of the illusion, with light shining in their eyes, looking forward to their future.

Of course, although the overall singing is clear and pleasant, there are inevitably one or two discordant and out-of-tune voices. Even though they are a bit abrupt, they actually add some charm to the chorus.

Dong Anchen seemed to be a little too excited, his cheeks flushed, or maybe it was because of the strong liquor he drank at night. Suddenly he said loudly: "What a wonderful never parting! Since we meet here today, it is a great fate. May we never part today and tomorrow!"

There were cheers and sparse applause from all around.

The rice wine was as light as water and not intoxicating. But the strong atmosphere, even in the dead of winter, made people feel a little more intoxicated.

"No one is waiting for me?"
