Chapter 51 : Xie Jianyu Is A Bad Host

The Grand Tutor brought some rewards to distribute to his dear students.

The entire class gaped at the two precious vials in the Grand Tutor’s hands. They were filled to the brim with blue shimmering liquid. The shimmering effect came from golden dust that were floating inside the viscous elixir.
"Grand Tutor, what is that for?" an alpha asked out of curiosity.
The Grand Tutor lifted the vials above his head, showing them off like trophies.

The life essence of the centipede spirit contained such poison.
