Whoosh!
As the lid of the box was opened, the dazzling radiance of the Spirit Crystal immediately spilled out. In the afternoon that was nearing dusk, the radiance illuminated the lobby of the hotel and dazzled everyone's eyes.
These spirit crystals were definitely the most natural works of art.
At this moment, everyone's jaws dropped. Even Wan Yanlin's eyes were filled with infatuation.
"This … this many?"
Zhang Hanfu stuttered as he stared at the spirit crystals.
Everyone present was a teacher, and their statuses weren't low. Naturally, they had used spirit stones before. As for spirit crystals, they had seen them before, but they had never used them before because they couldn't bear to part with them.
Strategic resources like this were usually saved up for a rainy day.
But now, there was an entire box of Spirit Crystals in front of everyone.
Whoosh!
Boss Lei subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to take it. However, An Xinhui's movements were faster than him.
Pa!
An Xinhui took a step forward and closed the wooden chest. "Boss Lei, I'm sorry. We have to discuss this first!"
After speaking, An Xinhui didn't wait for Boss Lei to agree and looked toward Sun Mo.
"Are you crazy? These are the crystals that Uncle Sun left for you, right? Even if you don't care, you can't waste it like this, right? "
An Xinhui frowned.
Spending 1,000 Spirit Crystals to stay in a hotel? My God! How could a person be so extravagant? (Sun Mo, are you not afraid of being struck by lightning?)
"Since silver doesn't work, I can only use Spiritual Crystals."
Sun Mo shrugged.
With regards to the value of mines, Sun Mo understood it better than the natives of the Nine Provinces. On Earth, who was the wealthiest? The capitalists on Wall Street?
No, it was the oil men from the Middle East!
These guys didn't have to do anything. They could just extract oil from the ground and sell it for a lot of money. It was like picking up money from the ground!
Liu Mubai assessed Sun Mo. At first, he was still surprised that Sun Mo had so many spirit crystals. However, after hearing An Xinhui mention 'Uncle Sun', he felt relieved.
Sun Mo's father was very impressive back then. It was very normal for him to be able to accumulate so much wealth.
"Don't smash it!"
An Xinhui suggested, "Let's not stay here anymore. Let's go to another place!"
An Xinhui was still reluctant.
"Don't worry, I still have a lot!"
Sun Mo really didn't want to waste any more time. "Boss Lei, can I trouble you to quickly handle the check-in procedures? Can you settle it in 15 minutes? Also, serve some tea and pastries first. Don't let my students get tired. "
"Of course!"
"Of course!"
Boss Lei nodded and bowed, immediately going to do it. Ask for Wei Lu's opinion? What a joke. An ordinary person wouldn't be able to throw out so many Spirit Crystals.
Boss Lei felt that Sun Mo's vitality was going to be greatly damaged in order to get back at him.
"Sun Mo!"
An Xinhui frowned, feeling that he was wasting the inheritance his uncle had given him.
"Headmaster An, don't worry about this."
Li Ziqi smiled lightly. What did 1,000 spirit crystals count for? After receiving Sun Mo's instruction to prepare some spirit crystals, she had casually knocked out a large piece of spirit crystal from the Wind King Hall.
When he was outside, he naturally had to follow the path of the poor and the rich.
The purchasing power of gold and silver in the Darkness Continent was a level lower than that of spirit stones. Moreover, spirit stones were too heavy, so they would naturally be exchanged for more valuable spirit crystals.
There was something Li Ziqi didn't say. The first box on the left side of the carriage was filled with even more valuable spirit diamonds.
"Alright, time to rest!"
Sun Mo patted An Xinhui's shoulder, indicating for her to be at ease. To him, these spirit crystals weren't even considered a drop in the ocean.
When An Xinhui saw that things had come to this, she hurriedly went to look for the boss and prepared to bargain.
"I didn't expect that you are actually a tycoon."
Jin Mujie was surprised.
Gu Xiuxun lowered her voice and asked in a low voice, "Honestly speaking, how many spirit crystals do you have left? I want to buy some! "
"Given our relationship, it's too formal to say that I want to buy them. I'll give you 100!"
Sun Mo chortled.
"You wouldn't have any designs on me, right?"
Gu Xiuxun grabbed her collar and surveyed Sun Mo with a suspicious gaze. Even parents wouldn't give their children so many spirit crystals!
Ying Baiwu's lips twitched, silently musing that Teacher Gu was thinking too much. 100 spirit crystals was merely the amount her teacher could casually pick up from the ground.
During this period of time, the iron-headed girl and the others had been cultivating in the Wind King Hall. They were facing those spirit stones every day and were already numb to it. However, the others weren't.
When Wan Yanlin saw that Boss Lei was ignoring her and was eagerly shouting for the attendants to entertain the Central Province Academy's teachers and students, she was so angry that she coughed up blood.
"Brother Wei!"
Wan Yanlin called out sweetly.
"Lin-er, I really can't win against him!"
Wei Lu bitterly smiled.
For something like money, once a certain amount was accumulated, it would just be a number. Given Wei Lu's identity as a prince, it didn't matter if he spent a few million or tens of millions.
However, spirit crystals weren't the same. They were an important strategic resource. Other than the clan leader, no one had the authority to use them.
"Hmph!"
Wan Yanlin coldly snorted and turned to leave. She didn't wish to stay behind and continue embarrassing herself.
"Lin-er!"
Wei Lu chased after her. "Don't worry, I will definitely find a better hotel than this."
"Brother Wei, you don't have to console me. I understand."
Wan Yanlin wasn't an unreasonable girl. Not to mention Wei Lu, even if her father was here, he would probably hesitate a few times before throwing out a thousand spirit crystals.
What background did that Sun Mo have exactly? To think that he was so wealthy to such an extent.
"Don't worry, those spirit crystals are most probably the Central Province Academy's reserves. Now that they have used them up, I want to see what they will do in the future competitions."
Wei Lu chortled, rejoicing in their misfortune.
"Get rid of their representative group and demote them!"
Wan Yanlin clenched her fists.
...
Money could make the world go round, let alone spirit crystals.
Boss Lei used his fastest speed to help the Central Province Academy's teachers and students settle in their rooms. However, An Xinhui felt heartache and reduced the price to 500 spirit crystals. But even so, they wouldn't be able to book the entire hotel.
Zhang Hanfu, who had entered the room, locked the door and started to roar silently. He took a pillow and smashed it non-stop.
(Damn!
Damn!)
(It's that damnable Sun Mo again. Why does he always spoil my plans?) (Also, that bastard son, what is he doing in the Darkness Continent?)
(Could something have happened?)
(No, it can't be.) Zhang Hanfu shook his head. His son was extremely outstanding, nothing would happen to him.
For the next two days, the students rested and built up their energy. At the same time, the representative group from Sky Orchid also stayed in the same hotel.
This was a famous school that was ranked in the top ten and had a great reputation. They were also a frequent visitor to the 'C' grade. Both parties usually didn't have much interaction, hence, their relationship was cold.
On the third day, at 8 am in the White Dew Building, the opening ceremony of the league tournament officially began.
108 representative groups entered the venue in succession.
When the Central Province Academy appeared, gasps of surprise rang out from the spectator stands that could accommodate 50,000 spectators.
The orange-yellow martial attire of the Central Province Academy was simply too unique.
In this era, the uniforms of the various schools were about the same. At most, there would only be changes in color and details. However, the Central Province Academy's martial attire had changed drastically.
However, there was a different kind of beauty to it!
"It's the Central Province Academy!"
"Che, it's useless to play these tricks. If they want to win in the competition, they still have to rely on their true capabilities!"
"Their new student group is their weak point. There's no need to care about them. Their main opponents are still Haizhou, Mingshao, and Sky Orchid!"
In the arena, buzzing sounds of discussion could be heard everywhere. After the initial shock, no one paid any more attention to the Central Province Academy. The top ten schools were still the most eye-catching.
After the vice alliance leader of the Saint Gate, who was in charge of this competition, spoke, he announced the end of the opening ceremony. Tomorrow, the competition would officially begin.
Today, there were no entertainment activities. All the students were making good use of their time to rest and reorganize.
After Sun Mo finished massaging the freshmen, he prepared to go and massage the higher-year students. However, he was stopped by An Xinhui.
"You have to participate in the competition as well. Don't waste your energy."
An Xinhui persuaded.
"I'm fine!"
Sun Mo was very energetic. Only when he massaged the girls did he have to do it personally. If it was guys, the genie would do it for them.
The only thing he exhausted was spirit qi. However, he could earn quite a lot of favorable impression points, so it was worth it.
"No, quickly go and sleep!"
The competition concerned the future of the school. An Xinhui had wanted to talk to Sun Mo, but she truly didn't have the experience.
"Don't worry, we will definitely be able to pass this time around!"
After closing the door, Sun Mo consoled her.
...
The new student competition and the main competition were held at the same time, and the content of the competition was different. Hence, after entering the White Dew Building, both parties separated.
"Next year, I will work hard to become a leading teacher for the main competition!"
Gu Xiuxun silently vowed as she watched An Xinhui and Liu Mubai leave.
A staff member wearing a yellow vest walked out. He held a sound amplification stone and shouted loudly.
"Teachers of the various new student groups, please wait in the waiting area. The participating new students will form groups and enter zone A1 to listen to the rules of the first round. Remember, the referee will not repeat the rules. Once you miss it, you will have to bear the consequences.
"One minute later, zone A1 will be closed. Please be quick!"
After the staff member repeated the words twice, he started to count down.
That sense of pressure instantly gushed over. The new students couldn't be bothered to listen to their teachers and could only rush toward zone A1.
Squeezing and fighting kept happening, but the staff member didn't stop them.
"Kill your way over!"
Xuanyuan Po had an excited look on his face. He rolled up his sleeves and was prepared to rush over!
"Wait a minute!"
Li Ziqi blocked in front of Xuanyuan Po. "Zhang Yaozong, Xuanyuan Po, Zeng Gang, Xu Jialiang, the four of you will be the arrowhead and rush forward. Wu Jitong, Peng Kunqi, the two of you will protect the left wing. Xu Dingjiang, Zhao Zhi, the two of you will be responsible for the right wing. The others will stay in the center!"
The little sunny egg's command was clear and decisive. At the same time, she was observing the surroundings.
"Li Ziqi, I'm the group leader of this group!"
Zhang Yaozong was unhappy. He felt that Li Ziqi was overstepping her boundaries.
"I know you can do this. I'm just helping you to check for loopholes. Your ability should be placed on observing the members of the other groups."
Li Ziqi didn't wish to quarrel. Hence, she complimented Zhang Yaozong.
After hearing this, Zhang Yaozong was very satisfied. "Everyone, follow me closely. Let's start the charge!"
BOOM!
The new student group of the Central Province Academy was like a torrent, gushing toward the A1 zone. They directly opened up a path through the crowded crowd of students.
