Chapter 455: Not Going to Take the Fall

This time, the old willow tree did not let Tan Mo repeat her question.

The main reason it did not reply to her question was that it wasn’t sure whether Tan Mo really had the ability to converse with him or not.

However, the instance Tan Mo healed it, it was sure that Tan Mo could do that.

Tan Mo really could communicate with plants.

It was a wonder.

The old willow tree pointed in a direction with one of its branches and said, “That way. You’ll have to cross the schoolyard, and you’ll see a red brick building. That’s the teaching building. Don’t worry. I’ll signal all my willow friends to guide you on your way there. Oh, some of them are injured as well. If you have the time, could you help heal them as well?”

“No problem!” Tan Mo nodded.

Healing a plant was way easier than healing a human.

That was because plants had more powerful healing abilities than humans. They were filled with lives, and their constructs weren’t as complex as humans.

To heal a human, Tan Mo had to control her energy really well. If her energy output was too low, it wouldn’t have any effect. If the energy output was too high, the one being treated might not be able to handle the pressure.

Controlling her energy was also a hard task.

Not only that, but she also had to locate every vein in the body and slowly pass her energy through them.

Some veins were weaker in comparison, and one wrong move would harm them.

Healing a human was very taxing for Tan Mo.

It was a completely different story when healing a plant. All she needed to do was send a little energy into it. It was effective and not costly at all.

Tan Mo pretended that she had noticed where the teaching building was and asked, “Mr. Sun, do you see the courtyard over there? Isn’t that the one that the receptionist mentioned?”

“You’re right! Let’s go!” Mr. Sun nodded.

The school grounds were completely empty. Most of the students weren’t back yet.

Even if they wanted to ask for directions, there was no one around for them to do so. If not, they would’ve been able to locate the building easily.

On their way to the teaching building, Tan Mo walked close to the trees by the sidewalk.

When she saw some injured trees, she would help heal them.

Whenever Tan Mo passed by a tree, the tree’s branch would move a little.

When the trees ahead of Tan Mo noticed that their companions were healed, they became a little restless.

They began to move their branches as well as if they were telling her to help heal them.

Tan Mo rested her hand on the branch of a willow tree and gently asked, “Can you please tell the trees ahead of us to calm down a little? They are going to attach too much-unwanted attention. Tell them I’ll heal them when I’m on my way out.”

The tree moved its branch a little and said, “Sure thing.”

Tan Mo continued to walk forward. Even though the trees that weren’t treated were still moving, it wasn’t that suspicious anymore.

Tan Mo could feel the excitement in them.

Perhaps it was because they knew that Tan Mo wasn’t going to abandon them, and their old injuries were about to be healed soon.

The trees kept pointing Tan Mo in the right direction, and the human girl led her lecturers along the way.

This time, they didn’t get lost and successfully arrived at the teaching building.

The people from Hua University were glad that they followed Tan Mo. They didn’t have to do anything and had easily arrived at the building.

Tan Mo had already learned from the willow trees that the teaching building had four floors. The classrooms for senior students were located on the fourth floor.

As for which class everyone was in, the trees couldn’t tell.

That didn’t pose a problem for Tan Mo. The class with the most people and the loudest would be the one they were looking for.

The moment they got to the fourth floor, they could hear a commotion coming from somewhere.

This time, they didn’t need any help and found their destination. All they had to do was follow the voices.

They walked to the corner of the hallway and turned, only to see a group of people gathering outside a classroom.

Tan Mo and her companions quickly hurried over.

Mr. Sun and Ms. Hu led the way and tried to move through the crowd. “Excuse us! We’re lecturers from Beijing University! Can we get through, please?”

The students who were gathering outside turned and saw two unfamiliar people in their 30s.

When they heard that the two people were from Beijing University, they quickly made a path for the guests.

Just as Tan Mo was about to follow Mr. Sun, Qu Yuanqi and Guo Xiaoyun from Hua University suddenly stepped in front of Tan Mo, forcing her to get separated from Ms. Hu.

Guo Xiaoyun even took the chance to step on Tan Mo’s foot, making the latter’s face reddened from anger.

She couldn’t believe that the students from Hua University would go to such length when she didn’t even want to bother them.

Tan Mo suddenly raised her leg, forcing Guo Xiaoyun to raise hers too.

The lady from Hua University did not expect that and wasn’t prepared.

What surprised her the most was the strength that Tan Mo had.

The reason she took the chance to step on Tan Mo’s foot when Qu Yuanqi pushed the young lady was so she could get her revenge.

That was the only thing Guo Xiaoyun could do as she would definitely fail if she went head-to-head against Tan Mo in terms of knowledge.

Tan Mo’s action was so swift and sudden that Guo Xiaoyun didn’t know how to react. Her foot was being pushed back suddenly, and now she was standing on one leg.

However, since Tan Mo was so strong, Guo Xiaoyun’s leg was raised to a height where she couldn’t balance herself. She began to fall toward one side.

“Ah!” Guo Xiaoyun cried in pain when she collapsed to the side.

However, before Guo Xiaoyun even let out the painful cry, Tan Mo had already screamed and fell backward.

There was no way Tan Mo was going to take the fall when Guo Xiaoyun was the first to take action.

Song Mingqi was behind Tan Mo and clearly saw how Qu Yuanqi and Guo Xiaoyun push Tan Mo back.

When Tan Mo fell, it was fortunate that Song Mingqi was close enough to catch her.

Thankfully, there were a lot of students around them. When Guo Xiaoyun fell, someone was able to grab her.

“What the hell are you guys pushing us for?” Song Mingqi was the first to scold them. “How can someone from Hua University do something like this?”

Zhang Zhipeng also saw everything happen before his eyes and was glad that he had chosen to study at Beijing University. He couldn’t believe that Hua University would resort to such a shameless tactic.

Because of the screams from Tan Mo and Guo Xiaoyun, everyone’s attention was now shifted to them.

Most of the students were only there for fun as only those who were standing close to the doors could see what was happening inside the classroom. The rest were just there to hear what was happening. They couldn’t even see anything.

However, it was impossible to ask these people to leave. There was no way they would miss out on something as big as a competition between Hua University and Beijing University.

“What are you talking about?” Guo Xiaoyun roared when she heard Song Mingqi’s remark. “It was Tan Mo who pushed me! She’s trying to make me fall!”

“No, what nonsense are you even spouting?” Tan Mo wailed as she showed her right foot. “Should I not have moved my foot back when you stepped on me?”
