Chapter 7 Core Seed Quota
Northern Spirit City, Northern Spirit Academy.
The moment Qin Hao stepped into the Northern Spirit Academy, he saw Master Mo outside the teleportation array.
Judging from their appearance, they seem to have been waiting here for quite some time. Could it be Elder Hao?
Qin Hao remembered that this year's competition for the spots would be attended by one of the five academies' elders, Elder Hao.
"Qin Hao, we've been waiting for you! Elder Hao of the Five Great Academies has been waiting for you for a long time. Come with me to see him."
Qin Hao was also stunned when he heard what Master Mo said.
Is Master Mo here waiting for me, not for Elder Hao?
"Master Mo, what happened? Why does Elder Hao want to see me?" Qin Hao asked.
"Great news, absolutely great news, you'll see soon enough."
Following Master Mo, Qin Hao soon met an unfamiliar old man.
Beside the old man, Dean Xiao of the Northern Spirit Academy was accompanying him.
Qin Hao naturally guessed the other party's identity from such treatment: Elder Hao from the Five Great Academies.
Upon seeing Qin Hao's arrival, Elder Hao, who had been lazy, also abandoned his indolent attitude and became serious.
"Is he Qin Hao?"
"That's right, I am Qin Hao. May I ask what brings Elder Hao to me?" Qin Hao replied.
Elder Hao didn't say anything, but simply flashed in front of Qin Hao and reached out to grab his hand.
Lightning crackled on Qin Hao's arm as he instinctively tried to resist, but Mo Shi intervened and stopped him in time.
"Qin Hao, do not resist. Elder Hao means no harm."
After a few breaths, Elder Hao put away his solemn expression and his face was full of smiles. "Lord Qin is indeed a young hero. His foundation is solid, and there is not a trace of arrogance. His potential is amazing and he deserves the weight of the core spot of the five major academies."
That was the necessary procedure for distributing the core positions in the five major academies. Please do not blame me, Lord Qin.
At this moment, Qin Hao finally understood why Elder Hao wanted to see him.
Core positions in the top five research institutes!
The quotas for the five academies are divided into three levels: ordinary, seed, and core quotas.
Without a doubt, the core spots are the most valuable.
Joining one of the five academies with a core position inevitably means receiving the most resources and training.
The allocation of core slots naturally requires careful consideration.
At his age, having reached the Divine Soul Realm and possessing such formidable achievements, he naturally meets the standards for a core spot.
Elder Hao's appearance was to verify whether he had taken drugs that could overdraw his potential.
If such a place exists, then let alone a core spot, one wouldn't even be qualified for a regular spot.
After confirming the situation, Elder Hao's attitude towards him underwent a complete 180-degree change, and he changed his address from "Qin Hao" to "Lord Qin".
"Elder Hao, you're too kind. I'm overjoyed to have been granted a core spot in one of the Five Great Academies, so how could I possibly blame you?"
"Haha, that's excellent." Elder Hao nodded and invited, "The battle for the spots in the Northern Spirit Realm is about to begin. If Domain Lord Qin has nothing else to do, why don't you come and watch the battle together?"
"There is nothing wrong with that."
After saying this, Qin Hao felt a sense of emotion.
They came here to compete for a spot, but now they've become spectators.
Moreover, they also obtained a core spot, which is a level higher than the seed spot.
Of course, this is the kind of good thing he likes the most, and if there are more, he'd like more of them.
......
Beiling Square.
This is the most expansive area in Beiling City, capable of accommodating hundreds of thousands of people.
Today, Beiling Square was also quite lively, with crowds of people everywhere.
The reason is simple: today is the day of the battle for places in the five major colleges.
This is a momentous day for the Northern Spirit Realm, a day that everyone in the Northern Spirit Realm pays close attention to.
In front of Beiling Square, some special seats were set up.
The figures in the seats exuded extraordinary auras and possessed abundant spiritual power; each of them emanated a powerful presence.
These people are all domain lords from the nine domains, representing their respective domains to watch the battle.
Of course, there are no longer nine domains in the Nine Domains; only eight domains remain.
"Elder Qin, congratulations! After all these years, the Thunder Domain has finally made it."
Mu Feng, the domain lord of Mu Yu, congratulated Elder Qin.
Like the Thunder Domain, the Shepherd Domain is adjacent to the Willow Domain and faces similar targeting from the Willow Domain. Therefore, the relationship between the two domains is quite good, so this congratulation doesn't seem out of place.
Upon hearing Mu Feng speak, the other domain lords also offered their congratulations.
"Yes, Elder Qin, with Lord Qin here, your Thunder Domain will likely replace the Willow Domain as the number one of the Nine Domains. Please take good care of us in the future."
"There's nothing to be afraid of. With Lord Qin's strength, entering the Five Great Academies is inevitable, and becoming the number one in the Nine Domains is also inevitable."
Hearing the compliments around him, Old Qin was momentarily taken aback.
Although this wasn't his first time watching the game, he had always sat there almost like a ghost.
Apart from Mu Feng, the domain lord of Mu Domain, who was targeted by Liu Domain along with Lei Domain, no other domain lord would bother with him.
Furthermore, because of Liu Yu, the other domain lords generally kept a certain distance from him.
After all, he was the only remaining Divine Soul Realm cultivator in the Thunder Domain, a very old and weak figure, the weakest of the Nine Domains, and could fall apart at any moment.
The current situation is a treatment that Qin Lao has never enjoyed before.
However, he quickly realized what was happening and responded to each of these domain lords appropriately, neither trying to please them nor being overly arrogant.
"Clang~"
A melodious bell rang throughout Beiling Square.
The moment the bell rang, the clamor in Beiling Square came to an abrupt halt, and all eyes turned toward the main arena of Beiling Square.
Five figures slowly appeared there.
Leading the way was undoubtedly Dean Xiao of the Northern Spirit Academy, followed by Master Mo and Master Xi from the East and West Academies, respectively.
At the very back were Elder Hao and Qin Hao, who walked into the North Spirit Square chatting and laughing.
Dean Xiao cupped his hands in greeting to the domain lords, "Thank you all for coming to Beiling City today. We're all old acquaintances, so I won't waste any more words."
However, I should give special introduction to the person next to me: Elder Hao, from the Five Great Academies, who is also the referee in today's competition for the spots.
He dictates all the rules of the competition for spots.
Upon hearing the words "Five Great Academies," all the domain lords who were originally seated stood up and cupped their hands in the direction of Elder Hao.
Elder Hao's response was also very indifferent; he simply nodded casually, completely lacking the amiable demeanor he displayed when speaking with Qin Hao.
The domain lords could only laugh awkwardly and then sit down again.
At the same time, everyone was even more surprised by Qin Hao's appearance.
Logically, Qin Hao should be preparing to participate in the competition for the available spots right now.
Although Qin Hao didn't have much to prepare, what was with him appearing chatting and laughing with Elder Hao from the Five Great Academies?
What exactly happened that they don't know about?
