He slowly opened the cloth bag and an object sealed in a crystal ball rolled out.

“Eh, What’s this?”

Ye Haoran picked it up and shone it under the sun. There was a blood-red black liquid sealed inside, and it already had the shape of a crow.

The black-red liquid gave off a bloody smell, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

However, since both sides were fighting for it, it must be something useful.

After studying it for a while, Ye Haoran decided to go to the library to look up some information and see what was this thing used for.

The National Library.

“The fetus of a holy-level vicious beast?!”

Ye Haoran held the book in his hand and compared its characteristics with the crystal ball in his hand.

“It’s really so. F*ck.”

Seeing that all the characteristics matched, Ye Haoran suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

He didn’t know what a holy-level beast was, and the value measure items in the book were things he had never seen before.

He was afraid that Jiang Congnan’s organization would come after him if he kept this thing with him.

After all, he didn’t know if the other party had any way to detect this thing.

It was also very troublesome to return it to the spirit guard because he had no way of explaining how he had escaped from the hands of the great spiritualist.

He would become dead meat if he were to expose the system.

At this moment, he saw a passage in the book:

“…can be refined and used to break through the bottleneck of the realm, and it can also be hatched as a contract spirit…”

Ye Haoran pursed his lips. Who would use such a black thing as a contract spirit? It was too degrading.

Therefore, he was prepared to refine it directly. Since it could help him break through to the next realm, it would definitely improve his realm as well.

“Let’s use this thing first.”

A bead appeared in Ye Haoran’s hand. It was the high-level vicious beast inner core rewarded by the system.

He found a cultivation place and rented a cultivation room at half price with his student card. Ye Haoran directly swallowed the high-level vicious beast inner core.

“Hu-”

The spiritual Qi in the inner core was stimulated and transformed into spiritual power in Ye Haoran’s mouth, which entered his body.

The little goldfish was also jumping around excitedly in the fish tank and spiritual Qi also surrounded its body.

In a short while, the entire cultivation room was filled with a thick fog of spiritual Qi, making it look like a fairyland.

Wisps of spiritual mist seeped into the rooms on both sides through the cracks in the walls, and the people in the adjacent rooms instantly noticed it.

“F*ck, what’s the person in the room next door doing?”

A spiritualist who was meditating opened his eyes and fell into deep thought as he looked at the threads of spiritual mist that seeped in.

Everyone was absorbing the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth in their cultivation rooms.

“Cough cough!”

Ye Haoran coughed a few times. He had not expected this at all.

At this moment, Ye Haoran’s room was filled with spiritual mist, and his visibility was greatly reduced.

He had only swallowed the inner core of a low-level vicious beast before. It was his first time swallowing a high-level one, so he did not understand the situation at all.

Now, it seemed that there were more than 100 million points of spiritual Qi in it, which was not what he could absorb at all.

The staff outside also noticed the situation and hurried over to check.

“This, is this a fire?”

“Why does it look like the condensation of spiritual Qi?”

Just as the people outside were scratching their heads, options appeared in front of Ye Haoran again, and they were blood-red.

[Option 1: Spread out all the spiritual Qi in your body to help the Night Demon Crow hatchling recover quickly. Reward: Earn the title ‘Best Terrorist’, there is a probability of being hit by a missile when equipped.]

[Option 2: Quickly absorb all the spiritual Qi before the Night Demon Crow recovers. Note: Spiritual Qi absorption speed has been increased by 300%. Reward: Dragon’s Roar skill level +1.]

[Option 3: Smash it, throw the crystal ball away, and escape. Reward: Earn the title ‘Rotten Salted Fish”, probability of having HP reduced]

[Selection time: One minute]

Ye Haoran was stunned. Why did he pick up the cloth bag that was casually thrown aside?

The black-red liquid in the crystal ball had partially condensed, and the shape of a crow had appeared and was quickly condensing.

Ye Haoran’s heart turned cold. Fortunately, there was a reminder from the system, or he would have died without even knowing the reason.

Who would have thought that this thing could absorb spiritual Qi on its own?

Just imagine, he was slowly absorbing spiritual Qi, and a holy-level vicious beast had suddenly resurrected in the cloth bag at the side. His f*cking life would restart!

He definitely could not choose either Option 1 or 3, so he was only left with Option 2.

Throwing the crystal ball aside, Ye Haoran sat on the ground and began to cultivate.

The endless spiritual Qi turned into a vortex and was absorbed into his body. The spiritual power accumulated in his body quickly increased.

A clear feeling suddenly appeared. The little goldfish at the side wriggled its tail a few times, it instantly grew a little longer, and the aura of a Level 3 spirit spread out.

Ye Haoran took a glance and saw that the concentration of spiritual mist in the room had obviously become much lighter.

However, the crystal ball was still absorbing the energy, and a few cracks had already appeared on its surface.

“It’s so good at absorbing?”

Ye Haoran hurriedly closed his eyes and continued to cultivate, frantically absorbing the dissipating spiritual mist.

After a while, the system’s notification sounded.

[Reward acquired: Dragon’s Roar skill level +1.]

Seeing the reward, Ye Haoran heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that he had succeeded and did not have to worry about getting burnt.

He opened the attributes panel and saw that the little goldfish’s attributes had already changed greatly.

[Goldfish (evolvable)]

[Star: 1]

[Level: Level 3 spirit]

[Skill: Dragon’s Roar (Level 2): Let out an angry roar to shock the enemy. It carries a mental shock and has a chance to interrupt the enemy’s skill release.]

[Skill: Divine Dragon Swinging Tail (Level 1): Swinging the dragon’s tail will cause AoE damage to nearby enemies, and there is a high chance of stunning them.]

Ye Haoran was overjoyed. Not only had he broken through to Level 3 spiritualist, but the little goldfish had also gained a new skill.

Moreover, it was a rare AoE skill. The original Dragon’s Roar skill had a silence effect after its upgrade.

He looked at the crystal ball and saw that a part of the crystal ball had cracked, and a crow’s head was already peeking out.

Ye Haoran reached out and picked up the crystal ball. The crow’s head started moving, its black eyes staring at him fiercely.

It was a pity that only one head had been successfully condensed, and its body had not been successfully condensed due to the lack of spiritual Qi, so it could not move.

“Hey, you little thing, you still dare to glare at me?!”

Ye Haoran glared at it and smashed the crystal ball on the ground, causing a dent to appear on the floor tiles.

“F*ck, so hard?”

Ye Haoran picked up the crystal ball again and saw that it was still intact, without any new cracks.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door. Ye Haoran quickly put away the crystal ball and opened the door, only to see a few staff members standing outside.

“Sir, may I ask what just happened?” The staff member asked politely, but his expression froze when he saw the dent in the floor.

“Well, you have to pay for the damage done to the interior of the room. Please pay for it.”

The professionals immediately came to evaluate and issued a fine of 1,000 yuan to Ye Haoran.

After paying the fine unwillingly, Ye Haoran successfully entered the blacklist of this cultivation place.

On the other side, on a barren mountain in the suburbs of Beitong City.

“What? You’re saying that you didn’t get the item back, and it was taken away by a Level 2 spiritualist?”

A square-faced big man looked at the dejected Jiang Congnan in front of him with a ‘Are you kidding me?’ expression.

“That kid has a teleportation skill. I’m afraid it’s an inherited skill of his family. I can’t catch up to him, and my bird seems to be sick.”

Jiang Congnan scratched his head as if he had just eaten sh*t. He turned around and summoned Blackbird.

“Swish!”

As soon as Blackbird came out, its eyes turned red and it charged forward. Its half-bald head was aimed at the big man.

“Hmph!”

The square-faced man snorted in anger. black and purple energy spread in his hand and he grabbed Blackbird’s neck.

“Your bird’s design is quite unique!”

Seeing that the feathers on Blackbird’s neck were almost all plucked out, the square-faced man inexplicably felt a little funny, so he knocked Blackbird unconscious and threw it back to Jiang Congnan.

“Do you have any information on that Level 2 spiritualist? I’ll go check. Also, if you make such a low-level mistake again, I’ll kill you.”

The square-faced man’s eyes turned cold. His body was filled with golden spiritual power as he flew into the distance.

“Holy spiritualist? Haha, I’m almost there too,” Jiang Congnan raised his head slightly, and the silver spiritual power in his hand had a touch of gold.

The next day, at Beitong No. 2 High School.

Zhou Jianghai looked at Ye Haoran, who was awake for the first time in his life, and announced to the class with a serious expression, “After a night of hard work by our second-year teachers, the mid-term exam results have been sorted out.”

“Sigh—-.”

As soon as this was said, the students below all began to complain.

Zhou Jianghai knocked on the podium and said, “Why are you all so dejected? I will now announce the results and rankings.”

“In first place: Zhou Xiaoyu, 89 points in cultural studies, 81 points in combat studies, a total of 170 points.”

“Second place…”

“Second to last, Ye Haoran. 100 points in cultural studies, 20 points in combat studies, a total of 120 points.”

Zhou Jianghai emphasized the word “100 points” when he read out the score. Ye Haoran’s eyes twitched when he heard that.

“Alright, that’s all. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask…”

“Teacher, I have a question!”

Su Chen raised his hand with a serious face and asked, “Why didn’t you announce my results?”

“So do you know why I only announce until second to last?”

Zhou Jianghai stared at Su Chen with a strange expression and said, “Somebody’s cultural studies score barely passed…”

“Ah, this…”

The atmosphere in the class was stagnant. Didn’t this mean that Su Chen had scored 20 points in the cultural studies exam?

Zhou Jianghai cleared his throat and said earnestly, “In two months ‘time, it’ll be the final exam for the second-year students. This will determine whether you can enter the top class in the third year.”

“There are a total of 30 places for the top class, and there are ten classes in our grade. So…”

Although he didn’t finish his words, the students below could understand the seriousness of the matter.

The top class didn’t only represent honor, but also a large number of resources.

When class finally ended, Ye Haoran received five low-level vicious beast inner cores from Zhao Hui’s underlings.

“Su Chen, help me sell it. I have no use for it.”

Ye Haoran handed the low-level vicious beast inner cores to Su Chen. He was no longer interested in this kind of low-level inner core.

It was more awesome to obtain high-level vicious beast inner cores as they had a lot of spiritual Qi. Once he absorbed it, he would be able to obtain immense power.

Su Chen accepted the inner cores and said, “Let’s go together. We’ll go to the black market to see if there are any buyers.”
