Chapter 904 With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility


Zhao Xingyue said, “Although there are many treasures in the Seven Storeys Pagoda, it is very difficult to get these treasures. It is said that the highest floor that outsiders can reach so far is the fifth floor. No one has ever made it to the sixth and seventh floors.”


After listening to their words, Qin Haodong thought for a moment and asked, “Since there are so many treasures and opportunities in the Seven Storeys Pagoda, with the cultivations of these students, I’m afraid that we won’t have a chance to enter at all. The pagoda will definitely be monopolized by other masters with higher cultivations.”


The Little Witch said, “You don’t know this. The Seven Storeys Pagoda suddenly appeared 300 years ago.


“At that time, countless masters were rushing over to get a piece of the pie. But they never imagined that the Seven Storeys Pagoda possessed an extremely powerful restriction. If one’s cultivation exceeded the stage of the Voiding Realm, he would be utterly incapable of entering it.


“After countless tests, everyone discovered that only cultivators below the stage of the Voiding Realm were able to enter.”


Qin Haodong said in surprise, “How could there be such a thing?”


Zhao Xingyue said, “I don’t know which master left the Seven Storeys Pagoda. It only appears once every 30 years and each time, it will stay open for three days. It will sink into the ground after three days. If you can’t return in time, you will be trapped in the pagoda until you die.


“Because there are many crises in the pagoda, the Tortoise Kingdom finally made a rule that only cultivators who have reached the stage of the Apotheosis Realm can enter. If one’s cultivation is too low, he will not be able to get the treasures and will even lose his life.”


Qin Haodong sighed and said, “So, the Seven Storeys Pagoda is like a testing ground specially designed for our Tortoise Academy.”


The Little Witch said, “Every time the Seven Storeys Pagoda appears, the Tortoise Academy will send out a large number of students to take part. However, we are not the only ones who will participate. The South Academy will also send out students.


“At the same time, some civilian cultivators and students from other academies in Lingwu Continent will also participate, so it is not easy to get treasures from it.”


Qin Haodong nodded. He, who had known nothing about the Seven Storeys Pagoda before, finally understood it.


Luo Dongqing sat on the podium and waited for everyone to finish their discussion. Then, he continued, “The experiencing matters are settled. Next, I will announce another piece of news, the bad one.”


Hearing that there would be bad news, everyone immediately became nervous again. They stopped all previous discussions and looked at the podium together.


Luo Dongqing went on, “Recently, traces of the Ghost King Sect have been spotted in the Tortoise Kingdom. Many cultivators have been killed, so everyone must be extra careful during this time of experience.


“The reason why the freshmen competition is held in teams is due to the sudden appearance of the Ghost King Sect. You can join forces when you go out to experience, at least in teams of three. You must ensure your own safety.”


“Oh, My God! The Ghost King Sect, why did these damn things suddenly come out again…”


“The Ghost King Sect, isn’t it said they had been destroyed by the Strongs from the Four Great Kingdoms? Why did it suddenly appear again?”


“Your information is inaccurate. I heard that the Ghost Lord was injured last time and did not die. This time, he must have come for revenge.”


When the students under the podium heard the news, they burst into an uproar and kept whispering to each other and discussing.


Qin Haodong was confused again. He still didn’t know what was the Ghost King Sect but he heard about it from the Little Witch last time.


Seeing his expression, Zhao Xingyue took the initiative to say, “The Ghost King Sect is the largest evil sect in the Lingwu Continent. In fact, they are also warriors and have nothing to do with ghosts or gods.


“However, every time the people from the Ghost King Sect appear, they wear ghost masks. The Sect Master is also called the Ghost Lord, so it is called the Ghost King Sect.”


The Little Witch continued, “The members of the Ghost King Sect are extremely cruel. Any cultivator who falls into their hands will eventually be sucked dry. That’s why it is treated as a common enemy by the Four Great Kingdoms of the Lingwu Continent.”


Qin Haodong was not surprised about this. Where there was sunshine, there was darkness. Where there were warriors, there would be evil cultivators.


Moreover, because these evil cultivators didn’t take the normal paths and did all kinds of evil things, their cultivation has increased even faster and they are more powerful.


At this time, Luo Dongqing, who was on the podium, said, “Well, today’s freshmen competition is over. Everyone, go back and have a rest. Tomorrow morning, the students who are going out for experiencing can set off.”


The students at the playground dispersed one after another. As they walked, they whispered to each other, discussing the Seven Storeys Pagoda and the Ghost King Sect.


“Senior Brother, congratulations on taking first place in this competition.”


Fang Qiong’er ran over with Yun Qianqian. They congratulated Qin Haodong.


Yun Qianqian said, “Doctor Qin, thank you for your help. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to get third place.”


They also benefited a lot from following Qin Haodong this time. Although their total grade was not as good as that of Murong Jinghong and Xiao Yulong, it was still good.


If Qin Haodong had not dealt with Xue Pan and He Kaishan, their rank would probably be even lower.


Qin Haodong said, “We’re on the same side. You don’t have to be so polite. Come to my place. I’ll treat you to dinner!”


Then he took everyone back to his dormitory. As soon as he entered, he saw Luo Dongqing waiting in the yard.


Qin Haodong said, “Director Luo, what are you doing here?”


Luo Dongqing said, “Brat, since you won the championship, you should at least thank me, right? The reward is 20,000 top-level Spirit Stones!”


Although he was her grandpa, the Little Witch still said rudely, “My little brother and I won the championship with our strength. Why should we thank you?”


Seeing that his granddaughter had jumped out to argue with him again, Luo Dongqing was so angry that he glared at her, “You silly girl, what are you saying? Have you forgotten that I’m your biological grandpa?”


The Little Witch cried out, “No one can bully my little brother!”


“You…” He ignored the Little Witch and turned to Qin Haodong and said, “Anyway, you have earned a lot today. Shouldn’t you treat us to celebrate?”


Qin Haodong understood that the geezer was here for his wine.


“Absolutely! We must celebrate! Let’s start eating right away. Help yourself to good wine and good food!”


After that, he set the table with the Little Witch. He then took out a large number of sealed food: sausages, braised chicken wings, braised pig trotters, roast duck, and cured meat from his Storage Ring.


At this time, Luo Dongqing was no longer as reserved as before. He took two bites of the trotter and cried, “Not bad, not bad, this food is really delicious.


“Little Qin, where is the good wine? Take it out quickly.”


Qin Haodong took out a box of Jian Nan Chun from his ring and threw it to Luo Dongqing.


Luo Dongqing quickly opened the package and took out a bottle to drink. “Good wine, really good wine. Boy, where did you find so much good wine?”


Qin Haodong said, “Why do you care so much? Just drink!”


Luo Dongqing’s face was full of smiles as he said, “You’re leaving tomorrow. I don’t know when you’ll return. Shouldn’t you leave a few bottles for me?”


Qin Haodong had no choice but to take out another box of Jian Nan Chun and throw it to the geezer.


“Boy, thank you!” Luo Dongqing happily accepted the wine and regretfully said, “It’s unfortunate that you don’t like women. Otherwise, I would have let my granddaughter marry you.”


Qin Haodong was speechless. “Geezer, I’ll take the wine back if you keep talking about that.”


“Okay, I won’t say. I am very open-minded. It’s up to you who you like, as long as you don’t like me.”


As Luo Dongqing spoke, he quickly kept the wine into his Storage Ring.


Then everyone ate and drank. He drank a glass of wine and said, “Little Qin, my granddaughter will be in your care this time. You must take good care of her. If there’s any problem, I’ll hold you responsible.”


As a grandpa, he knew very well that his granddaughter’s summoning skill was unreliable. No matter what she summoned in the academy, it would not cause any harm to her. However, it was different when she went out. The moment the summoning skill failed, she would be in danger of losing her life.


The Little Witch said with dissatisfaction, “I’m so strong. I don’t need others to take care of me.”


Luo Dongqing glared at her and said, “That summoning skill of yours is really unreliable. Who knows what you’ll be able to summon? Is it reliable? What if you summon another lamb when you face a powerful enemy?”


The Little Witch also knew her weakness, so she snorted and didn’t say anything more.


Qin Haodong said, “Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, I won’t let Hongying get hurt.”


Luo Dongqing nodded his head and said, “Your talent isn’t bad. You exceeded my expectations when you displayed your strength every time.


“The appearance of the Seven Storeys Pagoda is a rare opportunity. You must hurry and improve yourself.


“As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility. You are now the first master of our North Academy. The competition between the North and South Academies will be held in a month. You must prove yourself for our academy and our men.”


Qin Haodong asked, “Is our North Academy weaker than the South Academy?”


The Little Witch said, “Of course. We have lost for five years.”


Qin Haodong asked in surprise, “Why? Is the South Academy very powerful? And what does the competition between the academies have to do with men?”


Before Luo Dongqing could reply, the Little Witch giggled and said, “That is because the Associate Director of the South Academy is my grandma. She is more powerful than my grandpa, so her students are also better than my grandpa’s students.”


Qin Haodong suddenly realized that the rude old lady was actually the Associate Director of the South Academy. No wonder her cultivation had reached the Grand Completion Realm.


Luo Dongqing’s face turned red. He shouted angrily, “Wicked girl, shut up. What does it have to do with me if the students of our academy lose?”


The Little Witch said fearlessly, “It has something to do with you. If you can defeat my grandma, our academy would have won long ago.”


Luo Dongqing snorted and ignored his granddaughter. He said to Qin Haodong, “Boy, don’t listen to her nonsense. The reason why we have failed in succession in the past few years is that there are several geniuses in the South Academy.


“But it doesn’t matter. The geniuses on their side were not as talented as you when they entered the academy. I believe that you will definitely win credit for men.”


Qin Haodong secretly laughed. On the one hand, the geezer did not admit his incompetence. On the other hand, the geezer shouted that he should win credit for men. It was a very poor lie that revealed the truth, wasn’t it?


He said, “Geezer, work hard yourself. It’s none of my business. I’m not going to take part in the competition between the North and South Academies.”


“Brat, you’re actually trying to make me angry too?”


Luo Dongqing was so angry that his face turned livid. However, his expression changed soon. He said with a sinister smile, “Boy, are you sure you don’t want to participate?”


Seeing his smirk, Qin Haodong had a bad feeling. He turned to the Little Witch and said, “What’s the benefit of participating in the competition between the North and South Academies?”


The Little Witch said, “The top ten participants of the competition between the North and South Academies can take a bath in the small spirit spring next to the Tortoise Spirit Spring.”
