"My God, she reached the Late-stage of Soul Formation at the age of 21. She's too amazing …"
"Comparisons are odious. I signed up at the Middle-stage of Nascent Soul Realm. I thought I was great, but I'm nothing compared to her …"
"A genius is a genius. I've been living like a dog all my life. It's so annoying …"
Hearing that there was a new student at the Late-stage of Soul Formation, the whole Black Tortoise Academy was boiling. Everyone gathered here to see what this year's genius was like.
Qin Haodong secretly shook his head when he heard the discussion around him. He wanted to keep a low profile, but he accidentally became famous again.
At this time, Zhao Xingyue also finished her test, and the test crystal in her hand glowed with a yellow halo.
Zhou Youcai said, "Late-stage of Nascent Soul Realm. Congratulations on passing the test of our academy."
Qin Haodong was slightly surprised. This girl was obviously at the Late-stage of Soul Formation. How could she be at the Late-stage of Nascent Soul Realm?
He asked in a low voice, "Did you hide your strength?"
"Yes!"
Zhao Xingyue nodded shyly, "I was so scared when I saw so many people around you, so I hid a little."
Qin Haodong was speechless for a while. He really didn't know how such a timid girl managed to escape.
"You two, please choose your major."
Zhou Youcai said again.
"Major?" Qin Haodong didn't expect that cultivation also needed to choose a major. He asked, "What majors are there in our school?"
"There are summoner, alchemist and martial arts."
Qin Haodong said, "Then I'll choose alchemist."
Zhou Youcai said, "Okay, please show me your alchemist medal."
"What medal?"
Zhou Youcai explained, "Our academy is the highest-level academy in the Lingwu Continent. Naturally, there is a lower limit. You can only choose alchemist if you are at least a third-stage alchemist."
"Then I'll choose martial arts!"
Although Qin Haodong was confident that he would not lose to anyone in alchemy, he had no medal, so he could only choose martial arts.
"I'm the same as him."
Zhao Xingyue said immediately, as if she was afraid that Qin Haodong would get rid of her.
"Well, you're martial arts students. Now come with me to the student dormitory."
After Zhou Youcai finished speaking, he led the two of them into the Black Tortoise Institute's main entrance and walked towards the student's living quarters.
The Black Tortoise Institute was simply too big. It was simply a small city. Fortunately, they were all cultivators and their speed was very fast.
"This is your living area. You can choose a dormitory for your own use."
Looking at the elegant and chic courtyards in front of him, Qin Haodong asked in surprise, "Is this our dormitory? Do you live alone? "
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "That's right. For the convenience of cultivation, we have a courtyard for each student. As long as there's no student symbol hanging on the door, it's an empty dormitory. You can choose any."
"How extravagant."
When Qin Haodong went to school in his previous life, there were four or five students squeezing into a small room. The treatment he received now was unimaginable on Earth, where every inch of land was worth gold.
He pointed at a courtyard and said, "I want this one."
Zhao Xingyue added, "I want the one next to him."
"Sure." Zhou Youcai smirked and said, "The rent for each dormitory is five top-quality Spirit Stones a year. Pay the money now!"
"What the hell? Does the dormitory cost money? And five top-quality Spirit Stones? "
Qin Haodong felt that Zhou Youcai was not a teacher at all, but more like a businessman.
Zhou Youcai said confidently, "Of course, the school also costs money to build a dormitory. Five top-quality Spirit Stones is very cheap."
"I …" Qin Haodong was speechless for a while. Was this still a college? It was really difficult to do anything without money.
Zhao Xingyue asked, "Is there a cheaper dormitory?"
Zhou Youcai said, "Our college treats everyone the same. The dormitory is not graded."
Zhao Xingyue asked with blushing cheeks, "Can two people live in a dormitory?"
Zhou Youcai said, "The school only charges according to the number of dormitories. As for how many people live in it, it's your own business."
Qin Haodong had no choice. He only had eight top-quality Spirit Stones in his hand. He could not leave Zhao Xingyue alone. If he had known this, he would have asked the old drunkard for more money.
He took out five top-quality Spirit Stones and gave them to Zhou Youcai. Zhou Youcai took the money and did not rush to put it away. He said, "Freshmen also need to buy school uniforms. Each set costs one top-quality Spirit Stone."
"Uh …"
Qin Haodong had no choice but to give out two top-quality Spirit Stones and get two sets of white school uniforms.
"Remember to wear school uniforms when you go out in the future, or you will be fined one top-quality Spirit Stone each time."
Zhou Youcai continued, "Our Black Tortoise College is a top college. The management of students is extremely strict. In the future, you must act according to the management rules of the college. Otherwise, you will be fined or expelled.
"I have the management rules of the college here. I'll sell it to you at a cheaper price. Two books for one top-quality Spirit Stone."
Soon, Zhou Youcai left with eight top-quality Spirit Stones, satisfied. Qin Haodong had two more red booklets in his hand, but his pockets were empty.
"Damn it, I've become a pauper again so soon!"
Qin Haodong looked at Zhou Youcai's back angrily. Why did he call himself that? Just call him Zhou Bapi.
The money had been spent. They took their things into their dormitory.
Although it was a little expensive, the conditions were really good. All kinds of daily necessities were available. The only drawback was that there was only one bed.
According to the rules, they put on the school uniforms. Zhao Xingyue said embarrassedly, "Brother Qin, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"It doesn't matter. It's fate that we met."
Qin Haodong said as he looked through the student management rules in his hand. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Since he had become a member of Black Tortoise College, he had to see how it was managed.
Soon, he figured out the situation here. The management of Black Tortoise College was completely different from that of the previous college.
The college was divided into four grades. The students of each grade wore different colors. From the first grade to the fourth grade, they wore four colors: white, black, blue, and purple.
Here, students were forbidden to fight in private. However, if there was a conflict, they could challenge each other to a duel on the challenge stage.
The challenge stage was presided over by a teacher of the school. The fee for each challenge was ten top-quality Spirit Stones, which was paid by the party who initiated the challenge. The party who lost the challenge had to pay ten top-quality Spirit Stones to the winning party.
At the same time, there were many related supplementary provisions. For example, junior students could refuse the challenge of senior students, and if senior students refused the challenge of junior students, they had to pay ten top-quality Spirit Stones as compensation …
In terms of students' classes, the school also had its own management characteristics. Students were not forced to attend any course. However, there was an evaluation test every month. The students who ranked lower in the test had to give top-quality Spirit Stones as a reward to the students who ranked higher.
The college also provided many ways for students to earn Spirit Stones, which were distributed through the school's task union. If students wanted to earn Spirit Stones, they could go to the union to do tasks. Each task paid different amounts of Spirit Stones according to the difficulty.
As an earthling, he saw at a glance that the core of the management of students was to mobilize the enthusiasm of students through money. Under the pressure of money, unless one was rich, he dared not relax at all.
Qin Haodong was very satisfied with this management method. He didn't need to attend classes at all. He only needed a sufficient number of Spirit Stones to practice. The loose management method saved him a lot of trouble.
But the problem now was that he had no Spirit Stones at hand. He needed to find a way to make money.
Zhao Xingyue also realized the importance of money. She said, "Brother Qin, let's go to the task union and find a way to earn some top-quality Spirit Stones."
Qin Haodong nodded and they went to the task union of the college together.
The Mission Guild was the largest building in the academy. It had a total of four floors, and the bottom three floors were where missions were issued. Each floor had a hall that was close to a thousand meters wide, but it was still filled to the brim with students who came to look for missions.
After all, for most students, the only way to get more Spirit Stones for practice was to do tasks.
The two of them looked at the notice board and saw that there were all kinds of missions posted on it.
Some were to help nearby residents find cats, some were to help rich people walk their dogs, some were to hunt monsters for Neidans, and some were to help the government arrest thieves.
Generally speaking, the more difficult the task, the higher the reward.
Qin Haodong looked at it. Although some tasks paid a lot of money, they needed more time. Time was the last thing he could afford now.
Zhao Xingyue said, "Brother Qin, which task do you think we should do?"
Qin Haodong said, "I don't think these tasks are suitable for me. You can choose one if you need it."
Zhao Xingyue said quickly, "How can I do that? How dare I do a task alone?"
"Uh …"
Qin Haodong was speechless for a while. This girl was really timid.
Zhao Xingyue said timidly, "Brother Qin, why don't we go upstairs and have a look? Maybe there will be a task you're satisfied with."
"Okay, let's go up."
Qin Haodong also wanted to know as much as possible about the Black Tortoise College, so he went upstairs with Zhao Xingyue.
The lower three floors of the task union were for issuing tasks. The tasks on each floor were more advanced than the previous one. However, Qin Haodong did not choose a task he was satisfied with after looking through all three floors.
It was not that he could not complete these tasks, but that they took too much time.
They came to the fourth floor and found that it was not a place for issuing tasks, but a place for students to trade.
Here, students could barter with each other, trade by themselves, or sell what they had to the school in exchange for the spirit stones they needed.
Qin Haodong walked around and found a student in a purple school uniform selling the Nature Elixir. He stepped forward and asked, "Senior, how much does this elixir cost?"
The student said, "200 top-grade spirit stones."
"200 top-grade spirit stones?" Qin Haodong was shocked. He did not expect the price of the elixir to be so high.
The student glanced at him and seemed to be very dissatisfied with his fuss. "What's so strange about it? This is a fourth-grade elixir. 200 spirit stones are very cheap."
Qin Haodong was speechless. It seemed that elixirs were extremely valuable in this world.
When he was on Earth, he once refined 36 Nature Elixirs at one time, but he gave them to Lin Momo. He had none in his hands.
But it didn't matter. He could refine another batch and solve the problem of lack of money immediately.
Thinking of this, he had already determined the direction of making money in the future, which was to refine elixirs and sell elixirs. He could earn spirit stones as fast as possible and improve his cultivation.
After making up his mind, he left the task union with Zhao Xingyue and walked to the College of Pharmacists next to it.
