"King! King! King! “
A tsunami of cheers erupted below the stage. At this moment, no one was dissatisfied.
To be able to kill Zhangsun Chengcheng, a Mahayana expert, he was undoubtedly the strongest student in the history of the Black Tortoise Institute. He deserved the title of king.
You Wanren's face was livid. He was unwilling, but there was nothing he could do now.
Then, Luo Dongqing happily walked onto the stage and said to the crowd, "Congratulations to Qin Haodong for becoming the king of our institute. According to the rules of the North-South Institute Tournament, he will decide the list of students who can enter the Black Tortoise Spirit Pool.
All the students became nervous, especially those from the South Institute. Their institute had lost the tournament, and they did not know if they would be given the chance to enter the spirit pool.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Qin Haodong announced the list of students from the Xuanwu Institute to cultivate in the spirit pool.
There were a total of seven people from the North Institute. Apart from himself, they were Murong Jinghong, Yun Qianqian, Fang Qionger, Song Junyu, Wang Zhiliang, and another student.
The South Institute was Tu Jiaojiao, You Wanren, and Gao Qi.
On the spectator stand, Luo Dongqing and Ouyang Lan nodded repeatedly. This arrangement was very fair and in line with the current strength.
Luo Dongqing said, "It seems that our grandson-in-law is very generous. He did not argue with You Wanren at all."
Ouyang Lan nodded, which was rare of her. "Not bad, he has the heart of a king."
Many people were surprised by this result, including You Wanren himself.
In his opinion, he would not be selected this time because he had repeatedly made things difficult for Qin Haodong and had a feud with Qin Haodong for killing his brother. He did not expect that he would be selected.
What these people did not know was that Qin Haodong did not care about You Wanren at all. As long as he wanted to, he could squash this ant to death at any time.
At this point in the tournament, all the events had come to an end, and the spectating students dispersed.
Luo Dongqing announced that the selected students would gather tomorrow morning and head to the Black Tortoise Spirit Pool together.
Qin Haodong returned to the dormitory with Murong Jinghong and the others. On the way, he asked, "What's the deal with this Black Tortoise Spirit Pool?"
Among those present, only Murong Jinghong had entered the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring before. She said, "The Black Tortoise Spirit Spring is the eye of the spiritual vein, but the main spring has been sealed off by the Black Tortoise Royal Family.
Only the large and small Spirit Springs outside can be used by other forces. After so many years of profit distribution, everyone has reached an equilibrium. Among them, five small Spirit Springs belong to our Black Tortoise Institute. "
Qin Haodong said, "Only five? Wasn't it a little too little? There are 10 of us. "
Murong Jinghong said, "You really are greedy. To be able to obtain five Spirit springs is completely due to the strength and prestige of the Black Tortoise Institute. The other small institutes can't even obtain one Spirit spring.
This spirit spring comes directly from the underground spirit veins, which is extremely beneficial to the growth of a cultivator's strength. The last time I entered the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring, my strength rose to the Great Circle of the Void Tempering Stage.
However, the amount of Spiritual Qi in the Spiritual Spring was also limited. It could only be opened once a year for 24 hours. After that, it needed to be rested. Otherwise, there would be no more Spiritual Spring to use in the future.
As for the distribution of members, every time we enter the top five, two of us will be assigned to one Spirit spring. "
Qin Haodong nodded. He was very clear about this principle.
"Is there a rule in the institute about who will be in a group?"
Murong Jinghong said, "Generally speaking, students who have a good relationship with each other form their own groups. If they can't make a good choice, it will be decided by the leading teacher of the institute."
Speaking of this, she glanced at Qin Haodong, but in the end, she did not say anything.
From the bottom of her heart, she really wanted to cultivate with the man in front of her, but unfortunately, Fang Qionger and Yun Qianqian were next to him.
Everyone liked Qin Haodong, and this was something that everyone knew. It was not good for her to take the initiative to fight for herself.
If the little witch was here, she would definitely be the first to jump out and fight for a Spirit spring with Qin Haodong.
However, the three girls in front of him were not the kind of people who were bold and unrestrained. Although Yun Qianqian and Fang Qionger had the same idea, they did not say it.
Although they did not speak, they had reached a tacit understanding in their hearts that the final choice would be in Qin Haodong's hands.
However, Qin Haodong did not think about these girls. What he was concerned about now was how much his cultivation could improve through the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring, and when he could return to Earth.
After chatting for a while, they returned to the dormitory. Without the little witch's initiative to invite them, the girls were too embarrassed to ask to stay with Qin Haodong, so they returned to their own dormitory.
Just as Qin Haodong entered the door, a beautiful figure appeared in front of the dormitory. It was Song Junyu, who had just broken up with him.
The results of the competition were far beyond her expectations, and it had completely overturned her previous understanding of Qin Haodong.
On the way back, she thought about it carefully and realized that ever since Qin Haodong entered the Black Tortoise Institute, all the students who went against this man did not end up well.
This included Xiao Yulong, who was second only to Murong Jinghong, and the arrogant Xue Pan, He Kaishan, and the Dong Zhenjiang brothers.
Ever since these people chose to go against Qin Haodong, they all ended up in a miserable state. Some died, some were crippled, and some were expelled.
Instead, everyone who was on good terms with him had received great benefits. Tu Jiaojiao and Murong Jinghong had broken through to the Form Synthesis Stage, and Yun Qianqian and Fang Qiong 'er, who were originally close to her, had also leaped to the Peak of Void Training Stage.
In contrast, she, who used to be ranked above Yun Qianqian, had become dull.
"It seems that I have to make some changes and get 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 came to the door, she said to Qin Haodong, "Can I come in?"
"Of course."
Qin Haodong did not have a good impression of this woman, but he did not hate her either. He directly let her into the yard.
"Senior Song, what's the matter?"
Song Junyu said, "Junior, my attitude towards you today was a little inappropriate. I'm here to apologize to you, and thank you for choosing me to cultivate in the Spirit Spring."
"It's nothing." Qin Haodong smiled slightly. "I chose this list completely according to the strength in my heart. Senior, you have the strength to enter the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring, so you don't have to thank me."
"No matter what, I still want to thank you. If you need my help in the future, just let me know. I'll do my best."
Song Junyu fully expressed her goodwill.
Qin Haodong said, "I appreciate your kindness, senior. Let's take care of each other in the future."
"Okay, I'll go back first. See you tomorrow."
After expressing her intention, Song Junyu did not stay any longer and turned to leave the dormitory. However, before Qin Haodong could return to his room, another figure appeared in front of the door.
If Song Junyu's arrival was reasonable, then this person was somewhat unexpected to Qin Haodong.
The person was You Wanren, who was at loggerheads just a moment ago. At this moment, the previous hatred had disappeared and was replaced by a face full of flattery.
"Brother Qin, I'm here to apologize to you."
After saying that, You Wanren directly pushed open the courtyard door and walked in. He said with a smile, "Brother Qin, it's really my fault today. I'm here to apologize to you."
Qin Haodong did not say anything and just looked at him quietly.
You Wanren did not show the slightest embarrassment and continued, "Brother Qin, it was actually just a moment of impulse on my part today. I've also learned about my brother's death. He asked for it and can't blame anyone else.
I was also impulsive today, but I was completely subdued by your magnanimity later on.
I've treated you like that, yet you're still able to put me on the list of ten. I, your big brother, really admire your magnanimity.
I'm here to express my stance. Let bygones be bygones. I won't mention a word about my brother in the future. Please forgive my rashness today. How about it? "
Qin Haodong said with a double meaning, "Sure! I've always been a person who doesn't offend me, but I won't be polite to anyone who has bad ideas about me! "
You Wanren patted his chest and said, "Brother Qin, don't worry. You're my friend from now on. I, You Wanren, will be the first to disagree with anyone who disrespects you."
Qin Haodong said, "Is there anything else?"
You Wanren said, "It's like this, Brother Qin. There aren't many male students going to the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring this time, so I'd like to share a spirit spring with you. What do you think?"
"No problem!"
Qin Haodong agreed without hesitation.
He had just thought of the matter with Murong Jinghong and the other girls. Now that all three girls were interested in him, it was indeed not an easy choice to make.
Moreover, it was better to squash enmity than to make it worse. As long as You Wanren could really let go of that hatred, Qin Haodong would naturally have no objections.
It wasn't that he didn't consider what tricks You Wanren might play, but he didn't care. He still had many trump cards that he had yet to reveal, so he believed that You Wanren wouldn't be able to stir up any waves.
After You Wanren left Qin Haodong's courtyard, the smile on his face immediately disappeared and was replaced with a gloomy expression.
He had taken the initiative to lower his head to Qin Haodong today, so naturally, he wouldn't be as simple as Song Junyu.
As a veteran student of the Black Tortoise Institution, this wasn't his first time entering the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring. He was very clear about the situation there.
The reason why the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring could improve one's cultivation was because the spiritual energy there was extremely dense and fast absorption speed.
However, the amount of spiritual energy was also limited, and it was somewhat difficult for two people to use it. Usually, there wouldn't be much left in the end, so they had to rest for a year before they could use it again the next year.
He had recently obtained a secret technique called the Great Siphon Technique by chance. This technique could increase the speed at which one could absorb spiritual energy by ten times, and it was perfectly suited to be used in the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring.
The reason why he took the initiative to only use one spirit spring with Qin Haodong was so that he could quickly absorb all the spiritual energy, leaving Qin Haodong with no spiritual energy to use.
After absorbing enough spiritual energy and breaking through his current realm, he would then find an opportunity to kill Qin Haodong.
It was precisely because of this goal that he had come over to lower his head and express goodwill.
After dinner, Qin Haodong went to visit the little she-devil again. However, she was still in a deep sleep and showed no signs of waking up. It seemed that she was destined to miss this trip to the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring.
Early the next morning, Luo Dongqing gathered all the team members together and read out the rules and matters to take note of during the trip to the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring. Then, she allowed everyone to form their own teams of two.
You Wanren took the initiative to form a team with Qin Haodong. Seeing this result, Murong Jinghong and the other girls heaved a sigh of relief, finally avoiding the awkward choice.
She and Song Junyu formed a team, while Yun Qianqian and Fang Qionger formed another team.
After all the preparations were completed, Luo Dongqing led the ten students and flew towards the Black Tortoise Spirit Spring.
