Three Hundred Students arrived at the Treasure Pavilion and were instantly awed by the towering Seven-Tiered Pagoda, which shimmered with dazzling colors and exquisite craftsmanship.
It was magnificent to the extreme.
"Come over here," the Dean beckoned.
"Good morning, Dean. Lin Shidi is also here," the trainees said as they gathered around Lin Shidi, chattering excitedly about their gratitude, causing Lin Qiubai's head to spin.
"You are all too enthusiastic; Lin Qiubai can't handle it all at once. Let's head into the tower for some experience and become stronger!
The future world is perilous, and if Lin Qiubai ever needs your help, please do not hesitate to assist him."
Seeing the trainees becoming increasingly excited, the Dean quickly intervened to ease Lin Qiubai's situation.
"The Dean is right. From now on, whenever Lin Shidi needs help, I, Chen Ziling, will rush over no matter where I am!"
"I, Zheng Shi, will do the same!"
"I, Qian Mu, will too!"
...
Lin Qiubai wiped his forehead, feeling a bit overwhelmed. However, this feeling was quite pleasant—more so than when he obtained a low-grade King-Level skill.
Perhaps this was what it felt like to create value, to be acknowledged, appreciated, and even respected by others, thus giving rise to a sense of accomplishment?
No matter what, at this moment, Lin Qiubai felt completely relaxed, standing with his hands behind his back, as if his long hair was flying freely in the wind, exuding an air of transcendence and calmness.
"Come on, hurry inside. There are treasures in there that even I envy..."
The eyes of the senior brothers lit up; there were treasures that even Lin, their junior brother, envied!
All the young disciples present were quick to express their excitement, their emotions unrestrained. Many of the senior brothers exclaimed in surprise, stopping their noisy chatter. Under the director's guidance, they obediently entered the seven-story pagoda.
The pagoda appeared small from the outside, but inside it had independent spaces.
Three hundred students entered, each undergoing their trials in separate spaces without disturbing one another.
For a moment, the area outside the treasure vault was empty.
Only the elder guarding the treasure vault remained, looking relaxed and carefree as he nibbled on a roasted chicken while casting a sidelong glance at Lin Qiubai. He sighed inwardly: having lived for so many years and seen countless people, he had actually misjudged this one; truly a shameful oversight...
...
"I hope we can get more students who can obtain mid-grade spirit-level techniques."
The director stood with his hands behind his back, quietly observing the pagoda and couldn't help but chuckle.
If they could obtain mid-grade spirit-level cultivation methods, it would mean their cultivation speed would be eight times that of ordinary people. With such speed, breaking through to the Yuan Dan Realm would be faster, and aiming for the Creation Realm in the future wouldn't be impossible.
The Creation Realm—this was a level he had once yearned for deeply.
In Jielong City, it might take ten years to produce a single Creation Realm expert. This place was already a remote countryside in Beiliang Province; producing even one Creation Realm expert would be remarkable!
Now, under the influence of Lin Qiubai, this extraordinary genius with immense fortune, Bai Shi Academy might very well produce several Creation Realm powerhouses.
There was even a young man here with at least Nirvana Realm potential!
It was both commendable and lamentable.
Dean felt that the happiest moment of his life was today. He had witnessed this group of Students slowly growing, their potential gradually increasing. It was as if he could see these Trainees achieving great heights in the future!
...
After quietly waiting for two hours, the Seven-Tiered Pagoda showed no signs of movement.
Just as Lin Qiubai was becoming drowsy, the entrance of the Pagoda suddenly shimmered with light.
Zhao Mu and Senior Brother Lin were the first to be ejected, gently landing on the ground. Their faces were filled with excitement, and even their voices trembled as they spoke.
"Dean, Elder Qi... Lin Shidi! I... I actually obtained a Spirit-Level Mid-Grade Skill Manual!"
It should be noted that although Zhao Mu's family was considered a prominent family in Xianlong City, their clan's cultivation technique was only of the ordinary grade.
Even though the Zhao family's clan technique was of ordinary grade, it was not something that an average clan member could cultivate.
Even Zhao Mu had to work diligently and practice hard, and only after standing out at White Room Academy was he granted permission to cultivate an ordinary low-grade technique.
At that time, Zhao Mu couldn't stop smiling for an entire month.
Now that he had obtained a Spirit-Level Mid-Grade Skill Manual, his joy was evident; he was practically laughing uncontrollably.
Spirit Level Mid-Grade!
Dean and Elder Qi were overjoyed but didn't know how to express it; they could only shout a few times in excitement, "Good, good, good!"
"Thank you, Dean Xie and the elders for your guidance, and a special thanks to Junior Brother Lin for bringing this opportunity. Zhao Mu has no way to repay you and will remember this for life..."
Senior Brother Zhao Mu looked at Lin Qiubai with gratitude in his eyes.
"Fellow disciples are like brothers; it's only right to help each other. Moreover, this opportunity was left by our seniors, and it is destined by fate."
Lin Qiubai felt a bit embarrassed at Zhao Mu's words, his face slightly flushed.
But Senior Brother Zhao Mu was convinced of one thing: without Junior Brother Lin, he would not have been able to enjoy the baptism of the Vitality Pillar, nor would he have easily obtained a mid-grade Spirit-level cultivation technique.
The great kindness of Junior Brother Lin was no different from that of a master!
After a while, Senior Brother Chen Ziling was also expelled from the seven-story pagoda.
"What good item did you get? What grade is it?"
The dean quickly asked.
"High-grade Spirit-level cultivation technique!"
Senior Brother Chen Ziling grinned widely and laughed heartily, looking radiant.
Lin Qiubai calmly nodded.
Look at you showing off. I have a low-grade King-level cultivation technique; did I say anything?
However, Senior Brother Chen Ziling's exuberant smile quickly faded as he solemnly bowed to Lin Qiubai.
"Junior Brother Lin, do you still need a lackey? You know, the kind that follows you around like a shadow, and when you have various adventures, I get a share of the spoils?"
Senior Brother Chen Ziling shamelessly asked. He was in complete admiration of Lin Qiubai.
In just two days, they had encountered two fortuitous events.
Each time, their improvements were exponential.
This made him develop a thought.
Being Lin's lackey was even better than cultivating in a mid-tier sect!
"Uh..."
Lin Qiubai chuckled in disbelief.
"Since Lin Shidi doesn't speak, I take it as consent. Therefore, I, Chen Ziling, will be Lin Shidi's number one lackey!"
"And me! And me! I, Zhao Mu, am also Lin Shidi's lackey, the second lackey."
"I, Zheng Shi, am Lin Shidi's third lackey!"
Following the two, the seven-story pagoda glimmered again, and the third senior brother slowly descended. The first thing he said upon landing was to request to be Lin Qiubai's lackey...
"Ahem, if Lin Qiubai doesn't mind, this dean is also willing to be your lackey, just hoping to share a bit of fortune with this old man..."
Even the dean joked with a smile.
Lin Qiubai couldn't take it anymore and fled in embarrassment.
Leaving behind a group of people in front of the Treasure Pavilion bursting into hearty laughter...
Leaving the Treasure Pavilion, Lin Qiubai returned to his residence. Carefully sinking into his consciousness, he opened the scroll of the low-grade royal cultivation technique.
River of Jianghe, a map of ten thousand miles!
‘Once I break through to the Origin Realm, the first thing I need to do is to experience what it's like to have a sixty-fold cultivation speed… will it be exhilarating beyond measure?’
Lin Qiubai thought, his gaze sweeping over the treasures in the treasure chest, landing on the Holy Essence of the Yuan Vein.
“What has happened here?”
Lin Qiubai's brows suddenly furrowed. In his memory, the Holy Essence of the Yuan Vein radiated a brilliant white light.
That dazzling whiteness symbolized the essence of Holy Essence, rich in vitality.
But today, the size of a soybean Holy Essence of the Yuan Vein had actually lost its luster!?
It was as if all its vitality had been leaked away.
Lin Qiubai quickly took it out; just one glance made his heart ache faintly.
Indeed, this once perfect Holy Essence of the Yuan Vein no longer exuded rich vitality. It was not that its vitality had become restrained; it had truly and utterly become an ordinary object…
