Chapter 93: The Absolute Learning Institute

  (Second update, thank you! Third update before 7 pm.)

  "Alright, wait until they leave and then devour you..." Chen Hao compromised.

  He had expected this to happen, and earlier refused to negotiate, only because he was afraid that this guy would open his mouth too big. Five hundred, still within the acceptable range. After all, without the Treasure Sword Spirit, Chen Huan wouldn't be able to gain much more than other disciples even with a five-element spiritual root.

  After sending away the Treasure Sword Spirit, Chen Huan looked at Mo Yu and said: "Then use your sword. This sword of yours, I also feel that it's not so simple... You can contain the sword intent, probably related to it..."

  "Yes, boss! It's just that the material is a bit off. If it had the sharp and unmatched aura of a golden sword, it would be even more perfect..."

  "This is simple, once you're strong enough, just use energy to refine it, as long as you find a precious enough ore, you can gradually become stronger! Alright, all of you go back and cultivate now! Tomorrow morning, we'll go exchange, evaluate the welfare level, and then head to the Extreme Academy!"

  "Hmm!"

  ……

  "What? How many did you say?"

  The manager of the Cold Moon Palace looked at Chen Huan and his two companions, shocked, thinking he had misheard. Yesterday, the master had already made an announcement and even brought out the welfare hook to attract new disciples, exchanging some of the Five Elements Spirit Dan in his hand. But this morning, the disciples who came to exchange were mostly two or three, at most five. Obviously, everyone knew the preciousness of the Five Elements Spirit Dan, and being able to take out five was already quite difficult. But now, Chen Huan actually said that each of them had twenty, a total of sixty!

  Let the old steward think he misheard, staring at Chen Huan and his two companions with a shocked face.

  "Our strength is too weak, rather than keeping the Five Elements Spirit Dan for future use, it's better to exchange them for sixth and seventh grade spirit medicine, which is more practical and can also get a good welfare level, we think it's worth it... So, we exchanged all of them, a total of sixty!" Chen Hao said straightforwardly: "Manager, help us exchange twenty seventh-grade spirit medicine, the rest will be exchanged for sixth-grade spirit medicine..."

  "This... good, good, good! You're really good kids... If we have more contributions like yours, how can our Royal Newcomer Hall not be strong? However... aren't you leaving a few behind? This is a spiritual elixir with the aura of the five elements' spiritual roots. Although it's not very precious, it's hard to come by and will be very useful for your future! I'd like all of you to exchange them, but leaving a few for yourselves would be even better..."

  "No need, thank you, General Manager. We believe that in the future, we will all be able to understand through our own efforts! Let's exchange them all..." Chen Hao said with a shake of his head.

  "Alright... third-level benefits, this time the three of you will have a higher level of benefits, possibly ranking first among the new disciples of Cold Moon Palace! These are twenty 7th-grade spirit pills and four hundred 6th-grade spirit pills, which can be exchanged. These sixteen 6th-grade spirit pills and sixty 5th-grade spirit pills are what the three of you should get for this month's third-level benefits. Take these three tokens and go to the Ultimate Learning Institute to choose your cultivation method. Work hard on your cultivation, and I believe you will have a good ranking in the year-end test..."

  "Yes! Thank you, sir!"

  Chen Hao and the other two bowed and backed out of the grand hall.

  ……

  "There are even people as silly as this..."

  "It's not like they're worthy, the three of them have a low boundary, I heard they're from a small county town, with a poor background, obviously lacking in spiritual medicine and without high-level skills. How can they succeed just relying on that little welfare? If I were them, I would do the same, after all, the year-end test ranking is not just about losing face, they are at the bottom... However, their luck is really good, unexpectedly obtaining sixty spiritual pills, which is even better than many others..."

  "That's true, but it's still not worth it. He Lian Wu Zi has such good conditions, many talented people in Xin Xiu Tang want to get close to her, and just by casually responding, I estimate that they can all gain endless benefits. If I were her, I would definitely be able to mix and mingle with ease, achieving great success..."

  "Shoo, if you were a woman, you'd definitely be a loose shoe. Spare me, I like girls with backbone, like He Lian Wu Zi..."

  "How about you?"

  "Liking me is my own business, and I didn't say let Hua Lian Wu Zi like me..."

  Chen Hao and his two companions ignored the whispers of the crowd and quickly walked towards the Absolute Academy.

  ……

  Jue Xue Guan is a seven-story giant palace.

  Chen Hao sensed a layer of powerful seals surrounding the Absolute Academy as he approached. Chen Hao was clear that if there were any abnormalities here, they would likely be immediately surrounded by the masters of Xinxiu Hall.

  From the first floor to the seventh floor, the stronger and higher the level of the secret manual.

  Newly promoted disciples can enter the first level when they receive the first-class benefits. The first level is basically all sixth-level and seventh-level ultimate skills. This is a top-notch kung fu in various big families in Yunzhou County, but in the Imperial New Star Hall, it's just the lowest-level ultimate skill, the gap is really big.

  Of course, Chen Hao also knew that the true ultimate skill of the Royal Newcomer Hall was probably not in the Ultimate Skill Pavilion.

  Chen Hao and his three companions obtained third-level benefits, thereby gaining eligibility to enter the third floor.

  "What? Emperor Uncle?"

  When Chen Huan and the other two arrived at the entrance of the Absolute Academy, what surprised them was that the old man guarding the gate was actually Huang Qi!

  "Didn't I tell you? I'm the gatekeeper of the Royal Newcomer Hall... but just the gatekeeper of the Absolute Academy. Haha..." The sleepy-looking Huang Qi, who was dozing off with his eyes narrowed, suddenly opened them upon hearing Chen Hao's voice, and his sleepiness disappeared instantly. His gaze scrutinized the three of them carefully before landing on Chen Hao's face, saying: "Not bad, you've made great progress, what rank are you at now?"

  The true realm of a martial artist can only be fully expressed when they are in a state of complete explosion during combat, or when the martial artist themselves completely release their own aura. Otherwise, relying solely on intuition, it is very difficult to sense the specific level of cultivation. The realm of an "intention" practitioner is even more difficult to perceive, and when the intention practitioner gathers their spiritual energy, even a high-level intention practitioner cannot sense their level of cultivation.

  "Fourth rank of Martial Emperor... " Chen Hao said with a faint smile.

  "Not bad, not bad, work a bit harder, maybe there's hope......" Huang Qi smiled and said: "What realm have you reached?"

  "I haven't really cultivated much yet. Most of my energy has been focused on martial arts. Emperor Uncle, what do you hope for?" Chen Huan concealed his true cultivation. It wasn't that he didn't trust the emperor, but rather he had his own plans. Cultivating both intent and martial arts was unprecedented in the Zhenyuan Kingdom. Now that he possessed the ability to disguise himself at will, like "dressing up as a pig to eat a tiger" or "dressing up as a tiger to scare people", he naturally didn't want to reveal his true cultivation, otherwise once it got out, this incredible ability would lose its effect.

  "Hmm... Not cultivating is also correct. After all, although you have the innate talent of a spiritual master, this talent is not strong compared to true spiritual masters. Each profession has its own specialization, and human energy is limited after all. You only need to focus on martial arts, and with your spiritual master talent, your mental power will naturally surpass that of ordinary warriors. This will give you an advantage in controlling yuan force and when you enter a higher realm in the future... As for what I said about hope... Hehe, when you really have hope, you'll naturally know... Hand over the token! Uncle is handling official business, although our relationship is close, we still need to follow the rules..." Huang Qi stretched out his hand and said. When Chen Huan handed over the token, Huang Qi suddenly exclaimed, "Third-level welfare? So powerful?"

  "It's okay, we've exchanged all the Five Elements Spirit Pills..." Chen Hao said.

  "Full exchange?" Hearing Chen Huan's words, Huang's eyes narrowed into a slit, "Who would believe you! With your IQ..."

  "Cough...cough..." Chen Hao awkwardly scratched his head, never expecting that old man Huang Qi would be so astute.

  "Little girl, and you little boy, why are you still as dull as a wooden block? You need to be more clever, got it?"

  "Yes, Great Uncle..." He Lian Wu Zi and Mo Yu Yi also hastily said.

  "Each of you can only choose one martial skill and one martial art. You must make your selection within half an hour, and return them within three months. Also, even among the three of you, you cannot lend to each other, nor can you teach anyone else. Otherwise, the punishment will be severe! Go, go!"

  "Emperor uncle..."

  "Hmm? Anything else?"

  "Can I choose the ultimate skill? Although I haven't cultivated it, I want to get familiar with it. If cultivating isn't that difficult and doesn't consume too much energy, trying it out wouldn't be bad..." Chen Hao said.

  "Hmm, that's true. Practicing casually will make your spiritual power stronger, and it's also beneficial for warriors in many ways. Alright, you're a special case, so I'll make an exception. Uncle here is giving you permission to choose two more books! Go!"

  "Thank you, Uncle Emperor!"

  The three of them responded in unison and walked directly into the entrance leading to the third floor of the Absolute Academy.
