Chapter 959 Great Absorption Skill

Chapter 959 Great Absorption Skill


“King! King! King!”


The earsplitting cheers came from below the arena. At this moment, no one remained unconvinced.


Qin Haodong, who was able to kill the Strong at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm, Zhangsun Chengdu, was undoubtedly the strongest student in the history of the Tortoise Academy. He fully deserved the t.i.tle of king.


You Wanren’s face turned livid. He was unwilling to give up. However, things had come to this point now. There was nothing he could do to change it.


Next, Luo Dongqing happily walked up to the arena and said to the onlookers, “Congratulations to Qin Haodong for becoming the king of our academy. According to the rules of the compet.i.tion between the North and South Academies, he will determine the list of students who can enter the Tortoise Spiritual Spring to cultivate.”


At this moment, all the students tensed up, especially those contestants from the South Academy. They had already lost the compet.i.tion and didn’t know if Qin Haodong would give them a chance to cultivate in the Spiritual Spring.


Under everyone’s intense scrutiny, Qin Haodong announced the list of people entering the Spiritual Spring to cultivate this year.


A total of seven people were selected from the North Academy. In addition to himself, they were Murong Jinghong, Yun Qianqian, Fang Qiong’er, Song Junyu, w.a.n.g Zhiliang, and another student.


On the side of the South Academy, they were Tu Jiaojiao, You Wanren and Gao Qi.


In the stand, Luo Dongqing and Ouyang Lan nodded repeatedly. This arrangement was very fair. It also matched the current strength.


Luo Dongqing said, “It seems that our grandson-in-law is very generous. He didn’t hold a grudge against You Wanren at all.”


Ouyang Lan gave a rare nod. “Not bad. He has the heart of a king.”


Many people were surprised by the selection, including You Wanren himself.


In his opinion, he had deliberately made things difficult for Qin Haodong, and Qin Haodong had killed his brother. Qin Haodong would not select him this time. However, he did not expect that he would be selected by Qin Haodong.


What these people didn’t know was that Qin Haodong didn’t take You Wanren seriously at all. As long as he was willing to, he could kill You Wanren in minutes, like killing an ant.


All the schedules were over for the compet.i.tion. The onlookers dispersed one after another.


Luo Dongqing announced that the students on the list would gather tomorrow morning and head to the Tortoise Spiritual Spring together.


Qin Haodong returned to the dormitory with Murong Jinghong and the others. On the way, he asked, “What’s the problem with the Tortoise Spiritual Spring?”


Among all the people present, only Murong Jinghong had entered the Tortoise Spiritual Spring before. She said, “The Tortoise Spiritual Spring is the eye of the Spiritual Meridian. However, the main spring has been closed by the Tortoise royal family.


“Only some large and small Spiritual Springs outside derived from the Spiritual Meridian can be used by other forces. After so many years of profit distribution, everyone has reached a balance. Among them, five Spiritual Springs belong to our Tortoise Academy.”


Qin Haodong said, “Only five? Isn’t the number too small? We have 10 people.”


Murong Jinghong said, “You are really greedy. It’s all thanks to the strength and prestige of Tortoise Academy that we can get five Spiritual Springs. The other small academies can’t even get one Spiritual Spring.


“These Spiritual Springs directly come from the underground Spiritual Meridian, which is extremely beneficial for the improvement of the strength of cultivation artists. Last time, I improved my strength to the final stage of the Voiding Realm because I went into the Tortoise Spiritual Spring.


“However, the amount of Spiritual Qi in the Spiritual Spring is limited. These Spiritual Springs can only be opened for 12 hours once a year. After that, they need time to regenerate. Otherwise, there will be no more Spiritual Springs to use.


“As for the allocation of personnel, two of the top ten should form a team and use one Spiritual Spring.”


Qin Haodong nodded. He knew that very well.


“Does the academy have any rules about the pairing?”


Murong Jinghong said, “Generally speaking, students with good relations.h.i.+ps form their own teams. If they can’t choose well, they will be a.s.signed by the lead teacher of the academy in the end.”


Speaking of this, she glanced at Qin Haodong. However, she refrained from saying anything.


From the bottom of her heart, she really wanted to cultivate with the man in front of her. Unfortunately, Fang Qiong’er and Yun Qianqian were also there.


Everyone liked Qin Haodong. That was a known fact. She couldn’t take the initiative to fight for herself.


If the Little Witch was here, she would definitely be the first to jump out and say that she wanted to use the same Spiritual Spring as Qin Haodong.


But the three girls in front of Qin Haodong were not that unrestrained. Although Yun Qianqian and Fang Qiong’er also had this idea, they refrained from saying it, too.


They didn’t speak, but they had a tacit understanding and gave Qin Haodong the final choice.


Qin Haodong was not thinking about this matter at all. What he was concerned about now was how much he could improve his cultivation through the Tortoise Spiritual Spring and when he could return to earth.


After chatting for a while, they went back to Qin Haodong’s dormitory. Without the Little Witch there, the girls were too embarra.s.sed to take the initiative to ask to stay with Qin Haodong, so they went back respectively to their dormitories.


As soon as Qin Haodong entered the gate, a beautiful figure appeared in front of the dormitory. It was Song Junyu, who had just left.


The result of this compet.i.tion was far beyond her expectation. It completely overturned her previous understanding of Qin Haodong.


On her way back, she thought carefully about it. She found that ever since Qin Haodong entered the Tortoise Academy, all the students who had been against this man did not have a good ending.


This included Xiao Yulong, who was second only to Murong Jinghong, the arrogant and domineering Xue Pan, He Kaishan, Dong Zhenjiang and Dong Zhenhai.


Since these people chose to oppose Qin Haodong, they all ended up miserably: either dead, disabled, or expelled.


However, anyone who had a good relations.h.i.+p with him had benefited a lot. Tu Jiaojiao and Murong Jinghong had broken through to the stage of the Combination Realm. Yun Qianqian and Fang Qiong’er, who were originally similar in strength to her, had also become the masters at the final stage of the Voiding Realm.


In comparison, she, who used to be ranked higher than Yun Qianqian, had lost her l.u.s.ter already.


“It seems that I have to change my mindset and try to be closer to this man.”


She was not a stubborn person. After coming to this conclusion, she took the initiative to come to Qin Haodong’s dormitory to express her goodwill.


When she arrived at the gate, she asked Qin Haodong, “Can I come in?”


“Of course.”


Qin Haodong didn’t have a good impression of this woman. However, he didn’t hate her either. He directly let her into the yard.


“Senior Sister Song, what’s the matter?”


Song Junyu said, “Junior Brother, my att.i.tude toward you today was a little inappropriate. I’m here to apologize to you. At the same time, thank you for choosing me to cultivate in the Spiritual Spring.”


“It doesn’t matter.” Qin Haodong smiled. “The list was completely selected according to the strength in my heart. You can only enter the Tortoise Spiritual Spring because of your strength. You don’t have to thank me.”


“No matter what, I have to thank you. If you need my help in the future, just tell me. I will do my best.”


Song Junyu fully expressed her grat.i.tude.


Qin Haodong said, “Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister. Let’s take care of each other in the future.”


“Well, I’ll go back first. See you tomorrow.”


After expressing her intention, Song Junyu did not stay any longer. She turned around and left the dormitory. However, before Qin Haodong could return to his room, another figure appeared in front of the gate.


The arrival of Song Junyu was fathomable, but this person’s presence was a little beyond Qin Haodong’s expectation.


It was You Wanren, who had been so aggressive just now. At this moment, You Wanren’s hatred seemed to have disappeared and was now replaced by flattery.


“Brother Qin, I’m here to apologize to you.”


After that, You Wanren directly pushed the gate of the yard open and walked in. He said with a smile, “Brother Qin, it’s really my fault today. I apologize to you.”


Qin Haodong didn’t say anything. He just looked at him quietly.


You Wanren didn’t show any embarra.s.sment. He continued, “Brother Qin, I just acted on impulse today. I knew the death of my brother was his own fault. I can’t blame anyone else.


“I was just impulsive today. However, I was completely convinced by your generosity later.


“I treated you so badly, but you still chose me to be one of the top ten who will cultivate in the Tortoise Spiritual Spring. I really admire your magnanimous spirit.


“I’m here to make a statement to you. Let bygones be bygones. I won’t talk about my brother in the future. Please forgive me for my recklessness today. Is that fine with you?”


Qin Haodong’s reply was loaded with double entendre, “Okay! I’m the kind of person who will not attack unless I’m attacked. However, I won’t be polite to anyone who wants to harm me!”


You Wanren patted his chest and said, “Brother Qin, don’t worry. From now on, you are my friend. Whoever disrespects you, I, You Wanren, will be the first to disagree.”


Qin Haodong said, “Is there anything else?”


You Wanren said, “Brother Qin, there aren’t many male students who are going to the Tortoise Spiritual Spring this time. I want to share a Spiritual Spring with you. Is that okay?”


“No problem!”


Qin Haodong agreed without hesitation.


He thought of Murong Jinghong and the other girls just now. Now, all these three girls were keen to share a spring with him. It was really not easy for him to choose one out of the three.


On the other hand, it was better to get rid of an enmity than keep it alive. As long as You Wanren could really let go of that hatred, he naturally had no objection.


He had considered that You Wanren would play some tricks, but he didn’t care. He still had many trump cards that hadn’t been shown by him yet. He believed that You Wanren wouldn’t be able to make any waves.


After You Wanren left Qin Haodong’s yard, the smile on You Wanren’s face suddenly disappeared. Then, his face turned gloomy.


He had taken the initiative to eat humble pie before Qin Haodong today. The reason was naturally not as simple as that of Song Junyu.


As a senior student of the Tortoise Academy, he had entered the Tortoise Spiritual Spring before, so this time would not be the first time for him and he was very clear about the situation there.


The Tortoise Spiritual Spring could help one’s cultivation improve because the Spiritual Qi there was extremely dense and the absorption speed was extremely fast.


However, the amount of Spiritual Qi was limited. The Spiritual Qi of one Spiritual Spring was not enough for two people to absorb. Generally speaking, there was not much left in the end. That was why these Spiritual Springs needed time to regenerate for a year and couldn’t be used again until the next year.


Recently, he had accidentally obtained a secret art called the Great Absorption Skill. This art allowed a person to absorb Spiritual Qi ten times faster than normal. It was suitable to be used in the Tortoise Spiritual Spring.


The reason why he actively proposed to use the same Spiritual Spring with Qin Haodong was that he wanted to quickly absorb all the Spiritual Qi so that Qin Haodong would have no Spiritual Qi to absorb.


After he absorbed enough Spiritual Qi and broke through the current realm, he would find an opportunity to kill Qin Haodong.


Because of this reason, he became so subservient in order to express his goodwill.


After dinner, Qin Haodong visited the Little Witch again. She was still asleep and showed no signs of waking up. It seemed that she was destined to miss this trip to the Tortoise Spiritual Spring.


Early next morning, Luo Dongqing gathered all the teammates. He read out the rules and things to take note of when heading to the Tortoise Spiritual Spring. He then had them a.s.semble into their teams, two to a team.


You Wanren offered to team up with Qin Haodong. When they saw this result, Murong Jinghong and the other girls also breathed collective sighs of relief because they finally avoided the embarra.s.sment of the selection choice.


Murong Jinghong and Song Junyu were in the same team, while Yun Qianqian and Fang Qiong’er were in the same team.


After the preparations were done, Luo Dongqing led the ten students and flew toward the Tortoise Spiritual Spring.
