26 Application for Early GraduationTime flies like an arrow.
College life is always boring, and several years have passed in the blink of an eye.
During these years, Qi Tian's passion for cultivation never faded. Compared to before, his strength increased countless times.
At the end of the first grade, Tang San returned to the Holy Spirit Village with Xiao Wu and Qi Tian. After seeing the letter left by Tang Hao, Tang San and Xiao Wu gradually became closer. Finally, after Tang San persuaded Xiao Wu with emotion and reason, Xiao Wu became his sister.
After that, Tang San never returned to Holy Spirit Village. To him, his relatives were no longer there. As long as Xiao Wu was there, that was his home.
Old Jack didn't say much about this. His home, which was also Qi Tian's home, had become a two-story bungalow after Qi Tian's efforts over the years. The people in the village were all envious of Old Jack.
Last year, a genius who awakened his soul power emerged in the village. He eventually joined the Spirit Hall under the guidance of Su Yuntao.
Old Jack had always been upset about Qi Tian's failure to enter the Spirit Hall Academy, but after seeing Qi Tian's current strength, he was relieved.
There were many geniuses in the Spirit Hall, and Qi Tian might not be the most outstanding one. However, at Notting College, Dean Su took good care of Qi Tian, which was enough.
It is worth mentioning that Tang San and Xiao Wu did not have any conflicts with Qi Tian in the past few years. Qi Tian did not trigger any new events in the following days, so there was no reward to speak of.
More than three years ago, when Qi Tian obtained his second soul ring, Su Changqing and Xiao Zhan helped him. His second soul ring came from a thousand-year-old Saratan giant turtle.
At first, Su Changqing and Xiao Zhan did not think that Qi Tian could absorb spirit rings beyond his level. Because they could not persuade Qi Tian, they reluctantly agreed to let him try, and he finally succeeded.
Tang San also wanted to emulate Qi Tian and obtain the second thousand-year soul ring, but because his first soul ring was too young, he ultimately failed.
[Name: Qi Tian]
[Rating: Apprentice (20%)]
[Martial Soul: Double Fists, Double Eyes]
[Strength: 502]
[Spirit: 1000]
[Soul Power: 30]
[Soul Ring: Yellow Purple]
[Special Skills: Deliberate Punch, Blue Cloud Step]
"It will take another three months to finish my studies in Notting City, but I have already broken through to level 30 for a month and I can't wait any longer." Qi Tian made up his mind and decided to apply for graduation early.
After a soul master breaks through, the soul power he continues to cultivate will be fed back to him after absorbing the soul ring. But without the soul ring, the endurance of Qi Tian's meridians is still at the level of a great soul master. If he continues to cultivate soul power, he may be at risk of self-destruction.
But it's not a big deal if you don't practice.
As for the third soul ring, Qi Tian had no intention of asking Su Changqing to help hunt it.
Since his second soul ring was a thousand years old, his third soul ring must be quite old. With Su Changqing's strength, it would be quite difficult to deal with him, and he might not even be able to defeat him.
Over the years, Xiao Zhan had taken Qi Tian to the City Lord's Mansion to help him deal with some criminal issues in the city. With the bonus and the monthly subsidy from the Spirit Hall, Qi Tian already had a considerable amount of savings.
This money is enough for him to hire a soul hunting team to help him hunt souls.
When they arrived at the dean's office and Qi Tian expressed his idea, Su Changqing hesitated for a moment but finally agreed.
"For the past five years, Xiaotian, I have been watching your progress in cultivation. I am very happy that you have not forgotten your original intention. It will take about three days to get your diploma. You can use this time to plan where you will go. Also, consider what kind of college you will go to next."
Qi Tian thought for a moment and asked, "Dean, my strength is not enough to go to the Intermediate Soul Master Academy. I want to go to the Advanced Soul Master Academy, but I am a little undecided. I would like to ask for your advice."
Su Changqing stretched out his hand and gestured, "When you first entered school, you were only this tall. Now, you are almost taller than me. You are almost twelve years old this year. At your age, many people on the mainland are already married. You should have your own ideas. Whether it is an intermediate soul master academy or an advanced soul master academy. As long as it is your choice, I support you."
Qi Tian was silent for a moment.
Su Changqing has been like his father over the years, taking good care of him. Since he said so, Qi Tian also knew what he should do.
Going directly to the Advanced Soul Master Academy would be beneficial to his future development. However, the Advanced Soul Master Academy would no longer teach the courses of the Intermediate Soul Master Academy. Qi Tian could only find a way to make up for the missing courses by himself.
"Dean, I have decided. I want to go to the Advanced Soul Master Academy."
Su Changqing nodded: "Okay. Your uncle Xiao Zhan told me not long ago that he would recommend a good college to you. You should think about it carefully in the next few days."
Qi Tian agreed and then left the office.
He couldn't just leave if he wanted to now, so he had to think of a way to divert Tang Hao's attention and then take the opportunity to slip away.
Looking at Qi Tian's muscular back, Su Changqing was filled with emotion, "Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Tian's strength is almost surpassing mine."
He knew that this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect that the genius with full innate soul power would improve his strength so quickly after taking the lead at the beginning.
…
The news that Qi Tian applied for early graduation spread like wildfire and had already spread among the sixth grade students and teachers.
For the teachers, Qi Tian is a role model for other students to learn from. Since Qi Tian graduated three months early, he will definitely enter a higher-level institution next.
Among the teachers, those who had relatives who were teachers at the Intermediate Soul Master Academy came to Qi Tian one after another and asked them to be Qi Tian's class teachers. After all, such a genius would definitely be admitted to the Advanced Soul Master Academy, and the admission rate would go up.
Qi Tian refused them one by one, saying that Su Changqing had already arranged a place for him.
This kind of thing is not easy to talk about openly, and using Su Changqing as a shield, they naturally won't say anything more.
But this does not include Yu Xiaogang.
This guy has been harassing Qi Tian ever since Tang San became a good boy, and has been expressing openly and covertly that he wants to take Qi Tian as his disciple.
Qi Tian naturally didn't want to pay any attention to this piece of trash and rejected him every time he came.
However, when Yu Xiaogang heard that Qi Tian was going to graduate early, he became anxious. Once Qi Tian left, where would Yu Xiaogang find him in such a large Douluo Continent?
So, he changed his approach and planned to recommend a college to Qi Tian. In this way, Qi Tian would always be in his sight in the future. When the time comes, he would show off his skills in front of Qi Tian, and wouldn't the latter be completely controlled by him?
Yu Xiaogang did what he said. Taking advantage of the night, he planned to go to the seventh dormitory to meet Qi Tian under the pretext of looking for Tang San.
