136: Li Xianggui's scheme, Hainadan!

The crystal core of the Emperor Light Shadow-Trailing Dragon, the crystal core of the Dark Ice Ghost-Faced Bear Emperor, and the crystal core of the Nirvana Shadow Crocodile.

At this very moment, these three crystal cores were all blooming with their respective lights within the medicinal pool.

The three different colored energies—red-gold, black-blue, and pitch-black—interwove with each other, resembling swimming dragons in the water.

For Lin Yuan and the others, this was nothing short of a feast!

No one dared to waste a single moment; everyone was doing their utmost to absorb the energy within this medicinal pool!

Lin Yuan finally understood why so many people would fight tooth and nail just to obtain the qualification to participate in the National Freshman Friendship Competition.

Even without that fifty million resource quota, this medicinal pool alone, fused with multiple Beast Emperor Rank energies, could only be described as immeasurable in terms of the boost it provided to their strength.

At this moment, apart from Ling Shuangyue, who had not entered the medicinal pool, everyone else had stepped down into it.

Of course, Beast Soul Masters of Wang Ting and Li Xiangui's level were certainly not there to compete with this group of New Students for the energy in the medicinal pool.

On the contrary, Wang Ting and Li Xiangui were staying in the medicinal pool precisely to protect them and prevent the energy within from rioting.

After all, this medicinal pool had gathered the energy of three Beast Emperor Rank crystal cores.

If this energy were to run wild, it would definitely be enough to raze this place to the ground!

And for Lin Yuan, this was also a great opportunity to obtain evolution points!

Furthermore, his situation was different from the others.

With the System, no matter how much energy he absorbed, he would only convert it into evolution points without causing any side effects to himself.

Consequently, Lin Yuan naturally had no reservations.

At this moment, he was like a black hole, frantically absorbing the energy all around him.

The System's notification sounds also kept ringing in his ears.

"Ding, congratulations on successfully absorbing Beast Emperor Rank energy. Gained: 10,000 evolution points!"

"Ding, congratulations on successfully absorbing Beast Emperor Rank energy. Gained: 10,000 evolution points!"

"Ding, congratulations on successfully absorbing Beast Emperor Rank energy. Gained: 10,000 evolution points!"

...

Originally, when only one Beast Emperor Rank crystal core was placed in the medicinal pool, Lin Yuan's energy absorption speed was already fast enough.

But now, a full three Beast Emperor Rank crystal cores had been placed in the medicinal pool.

As a result, Lin Yuan's energy absorption speed had once again greatly increased!

Meanwhile, Li Xiangui came to Wu Xuangu's side and, without blinking an eye, stuffed a Medicinal Pill into his hand.

After receiving the Medicinal Pill, Wu Xuangu couldn't help but look at Li Xiangui in confusion.

Li Xiangui whispered: "This is a haina pill; it can significantly increase your energy absorption efficiency in a short period."

"You should also know that this is a great opportunity to improve your strength, and you absolutely must not miss it."

Upon hearing this, a look of joy immediately appeared in Wu Xuangu's eyes, and he nodded heavily: "Don't worry, Uncle."

Afterward, Li Xiangui reminded him again: "Although the 'haina pill' can help you significantly increase your energy absorption rate in a short time, you must exercise restraint yourself."

"After all, external force is ultimately just external force. Relying blindly on energy absorbed from the outside world can easily lead to an unstable Foundation and a floating Realm."

Wu Xuangu nodded again: "I understand."

After giving the reminder, Li Xiangui left Wu Xuangu's side very naturally, as if he had merely been chatting with the latter for a few moments.

After Li Xiangui left, Wu Xuangu did not hesitate at all and immediately swallowed the 'haina pill'.

As the Medicinal Pill entered his stomach, a look of excitement and agitation flashed across Wu Xuangu's eyes.

In his view, this was the best opportunity for him to widen the gap between himself and the others!

Very quickly, the medicinal power of this 'haina pill' was stimulated within his body!

In an instant, the surrounding energy immediately began to surge continuously toward the direction where Wu Xuangu was located!

Feeling this sensation of energy surging into his body from all directions, Wu Xuangu felt every pore on his entire body relax.

Li Xiangui glanced at Wu Xuangu, then shifted his gaze to Wang Ting, a cold sneer involuntarily appearing at the corner of his mouth.

So what if Wang Ting made him pay the price of a Beast Emperor Rank crystal core?

Wang Ting had prepared for so long, but in the end, wasn't he still making wedding clothes for his nephew?

Thinking of this, Li Xiangui felt his mood become increasingly pleasant!

...

Time passed second by second.

Everyone in the medicinal pool was focused on absorbing the surrounding energy.

Wang Ting was leaning against the edge of the pool, his arms spread out, lazily observing everyone.

Just then, Zhao Shanhe leaned over to his side and said with a smile: "Principal, what are you looking at?"

"What else could I be looking at? Of course, I'm looking at how our students are absorbing the energy."

Wang Ting chuckled and said: "This time, I've invested a huge amount of capital, so naturally, I don't want to lose it all."

"Rest assured, this is a full three Beast Emperor Rank crystal cores."

Zhao Shanhe sighed with emotion: "Even if it were used on a pig, it would be enough to raise that pig to the Beast King Level."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ting couldn't help but laugh: "What you said is coarse, but the logic holds true."

"I don't know what level our students' strength will reach after they finish absorbing all this energy."

"That still depends on individual talent."

Zhao Shanhe said: "The higher the talent, the higher the efficiency of absorbing energy, naturally."

"Look at Chu Tianyi; his energy absorption speed is clearly a cut above the rest."

Wang Ting immediately looked toward the direction of Chu Tianyi. He saw that the three colors of energy—red-gold, black-blue, and pitch-black—were all swirling around Chu Tianyi, being continuously absorbed into his body in an extremely balanced manner.

"You're not wrong, but talent isn't absolute."

Wang Ting turned his gaze to Su Muxue again and said with a smile: "Take this girl for example. Although her talent isn't as strong as Chu Tianyi's, she is focused on absorbing only one type of energy."

"Her energy absorption speed is not necessarily much slower than Chu Tianyi's."

Only black-blue energy was swirling around Su Muxue.

Clearly, this was the Beast Emperor Rank energy emanating from the crystal core of the Dark Ice Ghost-Faced Bear Emperor.

It was precisely because this Beast Emperor Rank energy was extremely compatible with Su Muxue's own attributes that her energy absorption speed had increased significantly.

It seems that when Ling Shuangyue took out this Beast Emperor Rank crystal core, she already had the intention of paving the way for her disciple.

"However... compared to Chu Tianyi and Su Muxue, this kid's energy absorption speed is somewhat abnormal."

Wang Ting turned his head again, looked calmly at Wu Xuangu, and sneered: "If I'm not mistaken, this guy must have taken the 'haina pill' that Li Xiangui gave him."

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise appeared in Zhao Shanhe's eyes: "So you had already seen it?"

"Nonsense, if you could see it, how could I not?"

Wang Ting couldn't help but roll his eyes: "If I'm not mistaken, you came over just to tell me about this, right?"

Seeing that Wang Ting had seen through his thoughts at a glance, Zhao Shanhe scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled: "Principal is wise."

Afterward, Zhao Shanhe asked again: "Since the Principal has already discovered it, why not stop it?"

"Stop it? Why would I want to stop it?"

Wang Ting said calmly: "The purpose of me preparing this medicinal pool is to allow my students to improve their strength faster."

"Since that's the case, I naturally don't need to restrict him from taking the 'haina pill'."

"To be honest, before this, I even thought about preparing a 'haina pill' for every student."

"After all, this Medicinal Pill isn't expensive, at most twenty million each."

"Compared to the money I spent preparing the Materials for the medicinal pool, it's just a drop in the bucket."

"And the reason I chose not to do so is simply because I didn't want to spoil things by trying to force growth."

"You also know that although the 'haina pill' can indeed help Beast Soul Masters significantly increase their energy absorption efficiency in a short time."

"But the key is that people cannot suppress the greed in their hearts. Once they fail to control themselves and absorb too much energy, it will be counterproductive, leading to a floating Realm and an unstable Foundation."

"That is why I chose not to prepare the 'haina pill'."

"And that guy Li Xiangui, who usually prides himself on being smart, didn't even see this point, and was still thinking about letting his nephew take advantage. In the end, he's just a fool."

Upon hearing this, even Zhao Shanhe couldn't help but be stunned.

He obviously hadn't expected Wang Ting's thinking to be so meticulous, having considered every aspect of the matter.

And just as Zhao Shanhe was sighing in his heart, Wang Ting spoke again faintly.

"However, compared to Wu Xuangu, don't you think your disciple's performance is even more astonishing?"

After Wang Ting said this, Zhao Shanhe suddenly realized that he had only been paying attention to Li Xiangui and Wu Xuangu's little tricks and hadn't paid any attention to how efficient Lin Yuan's energy absorption actually was.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shanhe immediately looked around, wanting to find where Lin Yuan was.

Very quickly, Zhao Shanhe found Lin Yuan in a corner of the medicinal pool.

However, the moment he saw Lin Yuan, a look of unbelievable astonishment immediately appeared in his eyes.
