Seeing that Yu Fei’s expression was full of disbelief, Zhang Zhenshan understood what was going on. When he himself had first known that this Glacial Piercer had been changed, he had been like this too. He said: “Headmaster, I already tested it carefully. The Glacial Piercer’s damage has been improved by at least 50% compared to before. Besides, this doesn’t even really matter. The most inconceivable thing is that when you shoot it out, both its speed and power are at least twice as large as they should be in a normal situation!”
After Yu Fei heard Zhang Zhenshan’s words, there was even more disbelief on his face. He looked at the Glacial Piercer in his hand in stupefaction for a long time, seemingly not daring to believe that this was true. Only after he himself tested it several times, piercing through the several stone pillars of the hall, did he finally sit back down in his chair in a somewhat entranced manner.
“Headmaster, the daggers Bai Yunfei used as projectiles are also kind of strange..” Zhang Zhenshan said and at the same time took out two daggers and gave them to a silent Yu Fei. He then sat down to one side, waiting for Yu Fei’s reaction.
Only now did Liu Cheng regain his composure. He pondered with a solemn expression for a while and said: “Do you think this is the Crafting School…?”
“Impossible.” Seeming to have also considered this question, Zhang Zhenshan shook his head, saying, “Though the Crafting School can reforge soul items and improve their power, I’ve never heard that it can change soul items to such an extent. Besides, if Bai Yunfei had some strong backing, he wouldn’t have been hunted by me like that.”
Right at this moment, Yu Fei, who was pondering with his head lowered, suddenly lifted his head and gave orders in a very serious manner: “Look for him!! Mobilize all the forces to look for him!!
“Whatever the means, you must obtain the method for improving the Glacial Piercer!!”

In Baifeng City, Bai Yunfei said goodbye to the people of that trade caravan right after entering the city and began to go shopping in the city alone. To avoid attention, he wore that straw hat with torn selvage that he had asked for from the trade caravan all the time. He did not even take it off when buying things lest the shopkeepers saw his appearance clearly.
When he finished shopping, it was already in the evening. He ate some food in a small restaurant then found a relatively ordinary tavern to stay.
“For the moment I haven’t noticed anyone suspicious yet. I’ve also observed this tavern’s waiters and owner. They shouldn’t be like the people from last time…” Bai Yunfei thought to himself while lying on the bed, “I’ve prepared all the things I need. For safety, I’ll leave this place for Cuiliu City on the border of Qingyun Province tomorrow early in the morning then go into Beiyan Province. At that time I’ll be much safer!
“Cuiliu City… I wonder if it’s related to that Green Willow School?” (*) At this point, he could not help thinking of the Green Willow School’s Qiu Luliu and Chu Yuhe. Then a beautiful figure in light blue clothes appeared in his mind. For the moment, he unexpectedly felt into a trance.
After a long time, Bai Yunfei sat up with a surprised expression. He shook his head with some self-derision and murmured: “What am I thinking about? Inexplicable… Now I’m running for my life! Seizing the time to improve my power and getting out of this Qingyun Province safely are the most important things to do.”
