“Thank you, Little Brother. You’re so great!” the Little Witch said and hugged the neck of Qin Haodong and kissed him on the cheek.

Although her Holy Spirit Body had been awakened for the second time and her cultivation could be improved, it was extremely difficult for her to improve.

Her lover improved her cultivation from the early stage of the Combination Realm to the middle stage of the Combination Realm in just one night’s time. This made her overjoyed.

“Senior Brother, I also want to thank you!”

The cultivation of Fang Qiong’er had improved from the final stage of the Voiding Realm to the middle stage of the Combination Realm in an instant. Such an enormous improvement naturally made her overjoyed.

With this cultivation as the foundation, she would be able to step into the seventh-level alchemist.

After that, she also came over to hug Qin Haodong and kissed him on the other cheek.

“I also thank you, Junior Brother!”

Yun Qianqian’s heart was filled with great happiness and joy. This kind of wonderful feeling suppressed the shyness in her heart. She blushed and kissed Qin Haodong on the face.

“Haodong, thank you!”

Even Murong Jinghong, who had always been proud and cold, put down her reservedness and came over to kiss Qin Haodong.

Seeing these girls lining up to kiss him for showing gratitude, Qin Haodong felt happy and touched.

Any one of these girls had countless admirers. However, all of them fell in love with him. This was absolutely a blessing from his previous life.

Soon, everyone had expressed their gratitude. Only Niu Cuihua, who was next to them, unhappily pouted.

“What’s the matter with you?” Qin Haodong took her hand and whispered in her ear after seeing that the First Elder of the Ghost King Sect was unhappy.

Niu Cuihua pouted and said like a jealous girl, “You didn’t help me improve my cultivation. I don’t even have a reason to kiss you.”

“Well… You’ve helped me so much. I should be the one thanking you.”

Niu Cuihua blushed and said in a low voice, “But you didn’t express your thanks.”

“Uh…”

Qin Haodong looked back and saw that other girls had already gone out. He reached out to hug Niu Cuihua and kissed her on the cheek.

However, the First Elder of the Ghost King Sect was not satisfied with this kind of kiss obviously. She turned around and kissed him on the lips.

When they arrived outside, Luo Dongqing was already waiting for them with You Wanren.

After seeing Qin Haodong, he excitedly came over and said, “Boy, how is it?”

Qin Haodong said, “Very, very successful. You just wait to win the championship!”

“Great! This is really great! Our Tortoise Academy can finally feel proud and elated!”

Luo Dongqing rubbed his hands excitedly.

The exchange conference of the four academies had been held for so many years. All the other academies had won the championship, but only the Tortoise Academy had always been at the bottom of the list.

If he could win the championship this time, it would be enough for him to hold his head high in front of his old lady for a while.

When You Wanren saw Qin Haodong, the one who was standing behind Luo Dongqing, his eyes were full of hatred.

You Wanren did not understand what was so good about the man in front. The director thought highly of him. Tu Jiaojiao, Murong Jinghong and other outstanding girls were eager to marry him.

Moreover, after a few days of disappearance, there were two more beautiful women by his side. This made You Wanren, who had always been arrogant, extremely unconvinced, and his heart was instantly filled with jealousy.

He was full of hatred for Qin Haodong because of his brother, You Wanjian. Moreover, because of Qin Haodong, in the Tortoise Spiritual Spring, he failed to absorb the Spiritual Qi and improve his cultivation, which made his heart full of anger.

In short, when he saw this man, it seemed that all the negative emotions in his heart came in an instant.

However, no one paid any attention to his mood. It was as if he were the air. No one even glanced at him.

The Little Witch said, “Geezer, don’t be happy. Hurry up and get down to business. It will start soon.”

“Yes, yes, I’m so happy that I forgot about the business!”

Luo Dongqing said, “Everyone, get ready? We’re going to participate in the exchange conference right away.

“At the same time, I announce that Qin Haodong will be the leader of the Tortoise Academy this time. All the things about the competition will be under his command.”

None of these girls had any objections to this decision. Only You Wanren’s dissatisfaction grew stronger.

After a round of applause, Luo Dongqing spoke again, “Boy, arrange things for this competition.”

Qin Haodong did not stand upon ceremony. He directly said, “I’ll announce two things. First, everyone must obey the rules of the competition and my orders. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.”

How could he not sense You Wanren’s dissatisfaction? These words were aimed at You Wanren alone.

Anger flashed in You Wanren’s eyes. He said to himself, “What’s there to be proud of? You still need me to compete in the competition later.”

Before this, his cultivation was preeminent in the entire Tortoise Academy, second only to Tu Jiaojiao.

In his opinion, even if he wasn’t allowed to be the leader, he would be an important member of this exchange conference.

Just then, Qin Haodong said again, “Second, each academy should report a list of seven people participating in this exchange conference.

“Among the seven people, there are five important members and two substitutes. Next, I will announce the important members and substitutes of this competition.

“The important members, Luo Hongying, Tu Jiaojiao, Murong Jinghong, Fang Qiong’er and me.

“The first substitute, Yun Qianqian. The second substitute, You Wanren.”

After hearing this result, You Wanren was stunned at first. Then, his heart was instantly filled with rage.

With his cultivation and talent, how was it possible that he became a substitute? What’s more, he was the second substitute between the two substitutes. What was going on?

“I refuse to accept this!”

He jumped out all of a sudden, pointed at Qin Haodong, and shouted, “This is your personal revenge. With my ability, why let me be a substitute?”

Turning around, he said to Luo Dongqing, “Director, Qin Haodong is not worthy of being the leader. You see. He arranged everything randomly. He asked me to be the second substitute!? It’s obvious that he wants revenge.”

As the teacher in charge, Luo Dongqing was very clear about the strength of these students from the Tortoise Academy.

Yun Qianqian and Fang Qiong’er were only at the final stage of the Voiding Realm before. Even if their cultivation had been improved last night, they couldn’t surpass You Wanren.

He looked at Qin Haodong and said, “Boy, tell me your reason for the arrangement.”

Qin Haodong said calmly, “The reason is very simple. The list is based on strength. You Wanren’s strength is the worst, so he can only be the second substitute.”

You Wanren yelled, “What? My strength is the weakest? On what basis do you say I am the weakest?”

Qin Haodong smiled. “You’re not convinced, are you? Then, I’ll give you a chance to prove your incompetence.

“You can challenge any one of us. As long as you beat one of the important members, you will be the important member. If you beat me, you will be the leader.”

“What do you mean by ‘a chance to prove your incompetence’?”

You Wanren was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He just wanted to challenge Qin Haodong, but soon controlled his emotions.

He had witnessed the other party’s strength in the competition between the North and South Academies. He was indeed no match for Qin Haodong, so it was unwise for him to directly challenge Qin Haodong.

“This boy must have set up a trap for me. He would like to make me challenge him. I won’t fall for it.”

You Wanren said, “You act up to your promise?”

Qin Haodong said, “Of course, you only need to win one of us.”

“Well! I’ll challenge right now and then make you lose face.”

You Wanren glanced around. Originally, Fang Qiong’er was the weakest. However, he felt that if he challenged the weakest one, it was not enough to prove his ability.

Tu Jiaojiao was stronger than him. The Little Witch had an uncertain summoning ability. Therefore, he stepped aside, pointed at Murong Jinghong, and said, “I want to challenge Jinghong Fairy.”

“Sure!”

Qin Haodong agreed without hesitation. Others retreated to both sides, leaving a place for fighting.

Murong Jinghong’s body emanated a powerful chill when she heard that this guy had issued her a challenge.

You Wanren did not know that Murong Jinghong’s cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Combination Realm. In his opinion, it was not easy to improve from the final stage of the Voiding Realm to the early stage of the Combination Realm in a short time, and it would take at least a few years for her to improve again.

Thus, he was confident that his strength was higher than Jinghong Fairy’s. He proudly said, “Jinghong Fairy, I am your senior brother. I will not fight back your first three moves.”

“Well, let’s start!”

Murong Jinghong stretched out her white-jade-like palm and slapped on You Wanren’s chest.

This palm looked light and didn’t have much power, but it cleverly blocked all the retreats of the opponent.

Seeing that he couldn’t dodge, You Wanren’s face darkened. He raised his hand and punched. At this point, he could only fight head-on.

With a loud bang, the punch and the palm collided.

Like a fly that had been swatted away, You Wanren flew straight for dozens of meters and looked extremely embarrassed.

Murong Jinghong stood there and didn’t move an inch. Her expression was placid with a sneer on her lips.

Only one move! It was obvious who was better between the two. Also, she didn’t use all her power considering that they were from the same academy.

Otherwise, You Wanren would not only be sent flying, but he would also spit out a mouthful of blood.

Murong Jinghong giggled, “How about it? You’re still not gonna fight back?”

“How…how is this possible? When did you reach the middle stage of the Combination Realm?”

You Wanren’s face was full of disbelief. He could not believe that there was such a big gap between him and Murong Jinghong.

Murong Jinghong sneered, “What does that have to do with you? Are you going to admit defeat or not?”

“I…”

You Wanren had always been proud and arrogant. However, he was suppressed and forced to admit defeat today, which was a great insult to him.

The other party’s strength was obvious. Her cultivation was the middle stage of the Combination Realm. He was no match for her at all.

“Hmph… Isn’t it just the middle stage of the Combination Realm? What’s so great about it? I’ll be able to reach this stage sooner or later.”

You Wanren thought to himself. He did not believe that everyone had reached the middle stage of the Combination Realm. At this time, he could no longer care about his face. He turned to look at Fang Qiong’er and said, “I want to challenge her.”

As long as he defeated Fang Qiong’er, he still could become an important member.

“Okay!” Qin Haodong said to Fang Qiong’er, “Be careful, Junior Sister. Don’t hurt him.”

“I understand, Senior Brother.”

Fang Qiong’er stepped to the center of the field and said to You Wanren, “Come on. I’ll let you make the first move.”

After the failure just now, You Wanren became much more careful. He was no longer arrogant and took the initiative to punch the face of Fang Qiong’er.

He was quite confident about this round. Even if Fang Qiong’er had improved, her cultivation would at most be promoted from the final stage of the Voiding Realm to the early stage of the Combination Realm. She was no match for him.

However, right at that moment, the huge momentum swept over. Immediately, there was a pain in his chest. He flew backward like a fly again.

This time, he flew even farther than last time. Only after breaking several large trees in succession did he stop.
