Chapter 72 – The more bargaining power he would have


As for Huo Xian’er herself, the academy she would attend had long been decided.

The representative from the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy, one of the four top Spirit Tamer Academies, had come specifically for her this time.

Her elder from the Sacred City, Huo Ling, had personally come to Skyshine City to recruit her.

In other words, Huo Xian’er had no choice in the matter.

As long as she passed the assessment, she would definitely enter the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy.

This was beyond doubt and had been set in stone long ago.

Now, she was curious about which Spirit Tamer Academy Ye Ling would choose.

If he chose the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy, they could continue to be classmates, and she could continue to uncover Ye Ling’s secrets.

Having been saved by Ye Ling this time, Huo Xian’er had developed a deep impression of him.

She was quite hopeful that Ye Ling would join the same Spirit Tamer Academy as her.

Of course, it ultimately depended on Ye Ling’s decision.

“You’re still asking me? What about you? Which Spirit Tamer Academy do you want to go to? With your strength, the four top Spirit Tamer Academies wouldn’t miss out on you.”

Ye Ling didn’t answer Huo Xian’er’s question immediately but instead asked about her choice.

Hearing Ye Ling throw the question back at her, Huo Xian’er pursed her lips.

But she still answered honestly.

“If nothing unexpected happens, I’ll be going to the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy because I have no choice.”

If she had a choice, Huo Xian’er would actually prefer to go to the Vermilion Bird Spirit Tamer Academy.

The Vermilion Bird Spirit Tamer Academy was known for supporting female Spirit Tamers.

Most of the renowned Spirit Tamers came from this academy.

Naturally, the Vermilion Bird Spirit Tamer Academy was more popular among female students.

Regarding Huo Xian’er’s lack of choice, Ye Ling felt a bit curious.

After all, he didn’t know about the relationship between Huo Xian’er and Huo Ling.

“Why do you say you have no choice? With your strength, any Spirit Tamer Academy would accept you.

If you don’t have a choice, then do other students have any choice?”

Upon hearing this, Huo Xian’er shook her head slightly.

“It’s not what you think. The reason I can’t choose is that this time, the representative from the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy is from the Huo family in the Sacred City. They came specifically for me.

They had already contacted my father in advance to arrange for me to join the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy.

That’s why I said I have no choice.”

Although she couldn’t choose, the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy was also one of the top Spirit Tamer Academies, with strong capabilities.

Huo Xian’er wouldn’t suffer any loss by entering the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy. With Huo Ling there, she would even receive special treatment.

After all, Huo Ling was a teacher there, and with the support of the Huo family from the Sacred City, Huo Xian’er’s treatment couldn’t be poor.

Although Huo Xian’er was only from a branch of the Huo family, she was still a member of the family.

Entering the main family in the future was just a matter of time.

Thinking of this, Huo Xian’er shook her head, pushing away the strange thoughts in her mind.

The future was too distant to be her concern now.

Then, Huo Xian’er turned her gaze back to Ye Ling and asked again.

“What about you? You haven’t said yet, which Spirit Tamer Academy will you choose?”

There was a hint of expectation in her tone.

She was somewhat hopeful that Ye Ling would choose to join the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy with her.

When it came to himself, information about the top Spirit Tamer Academies flashed through Ye Ling’s mind.

In terms of strength, the differences between the top Spirit Tamer Academies were not significant.

Or rather, they were on par with each other.

The resources each academy provided to students were almost the same, very uniform.

If the resources were equal, Ye Ling had to consider which academy would offer more opportunities to encounter demons.

In the Sacred City, unlike the remote Skyshine City, there were large military forces.

Not only the military, but there were also many powerful Spirit Tamers in the Sacred City.

The surrounding areas were thoroughly cleared of demons.

To become stronger by hunting demons, relying solely on wild demons was not feasible; one had to enter the Secret Realm.

Generally, the number of times students could enter the Secret Realm was limited, with some students possibly only going once a year.

Unless they received other rewards, they would have no chance to enter the Secret Realm.

To become stronger, Ye Ling needed more opportunities to enter the Secret Realm.

Currently, Ye Ling hadn’t decided which Spirit Tamer Academy to join.

He planned to wait and see.

In the second phase of the assessment, Ye Ling would do his best to take first place.

The higher his rank and the stronger his performance, the more bargaining power he would have.

To recruit him, the academies would have to offer better conditions.

At that time, Ye Ling could choose the Spirit Tamer Academy that was most beneficial to him.

But that was a matter for later; Ye Ling hadn’t made up his mind yet.

However, when answering Huo Xian’er’s question, Ye Ling naturally wouldn’t say all this.
