Chapter 3876: Can't Be Fooled

"Students, if you have any issues, we can discuss them properly!" Dean Yun said with a wronged expression.

Qiao Mu trotted forward, her face full of displeasure, and glared at Yun Piaomiao, unceremoniously shouting, "Are you trying to rob us?"

Master Wuyan, beside her, quickly shook his head. He sized up Qiao Mu, then coughed lightly. "Little one, this phoenix wood shouldn't be pulled out for too long. It needs a special environment to be planted, otherwise it might die..."

Qiao Mu snorted. She walked directly to the millennium phoenix tree, reaching out to touch it. A faint trace of vitality was injected into the phoenix wood, causing the tree to joyfully stretch its leaves.

Qi Xuanxuan laughed. "See, Dean, and you, Master! This phoenix wood won't die, so you two don't need to worry."

Dean Yun looked at Master Wuyan with a helpless expression.

It wouldn't have been a problem no matter who found an entire tree. Yun Piaomiao was confident he could trick any other student into giving up the tree.

However...

The team that found the tree was the bizarre Sky-Space Star team.

It was well-known that no member of their team had normal logical thinking...

"Student Qiao..." Dean Yun called out pitifully.

"Can you even keep it alive?" Qiao Mu rolled her eyes at the dean. "The phoenix wood's growth environment needs to be at least a spiritual domain."

"You're taking it back to the academy, a place with many people and loose tongues, hmph." Qiao Mu glanced at them, then tilted her gaze towards Qi Xuanxuan. "Give it to them."

Qi Xuanxuan immediately understood. She pulled out a phoenix flower and a branch of phoenix wood, tossing them to the dumbfounded Dean Yun. "Dean, we have enough points! We don't need twenty thousand."

"Ah, a phoenix flower!" Master Wuyan eagerly rushed over. Before the dean could catch the phoenix flower, he carefully reached out and cradled it.

The dean spun around, taking hold of the phoenix wood branch, his eyes complex as he looked at the little stoic face before him.

Did this Student Qiao just save the world in a few days?!

Otherwise, how could she have such incredibly good luck?

"Student, may I ask where this phoenix flower came from?" Master Wuyan wasn't foolish; he wasn't blind.

The phoenix wood in front of them hadn't bloomed, so this phoenix flower clearly didn't fall from it.

Moreover, looking at the fullness and translucence of this phoenix flower's petals and stem, it truly didn't look like a flower that had fallen from a millennium phoenix tree.

Qiao Mu remained expressionless.

Qi Xuanxuan also didn't answer.

However, the surrounding students, with their odd expressions, spoke in unison, "We picked it up."

Duan Yue couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his face.

These students had been so influenced by the little stoic that their expressions and tones of voice when speaking were now heading in the direction of stoicism...

Master Wuyan was startled, thinking he had hallucinated.

"Picked up?" He blinked, a look of disbelief on his face. "Excuse me, where did you pick it up??"

Why didn't this old man have such good luck?

He, Dean Yun Cong, and several other instructors had wandered through this Phoenix Wood Forest countless times.

How come they never picked up a phoenix flower?

"Under a camphor tree," everyone responded in unison, then chuckled.

Yun Piaomiao twitched the corner of his mouth, secretly glancing at the little girl's expressionless face.
