Chapter 294: Chapter 294 Cultivation Pool Chapter 294: Chapter 294 Cultivation Pool Zhang Min took Jing Yan to a Cultivation Pool, which was part of the Outer Court.

Inner Court Students did not use these Outer Court Cultivation Pools, for they had better places to cultivate.

“Jing Yan, you’ve gotten into big trouble!” Along the way, Zhang Min was anxious.

“Qian Bo has some backing, right?” Jing Yan smiled.

“You know?

Do you know Qian Bo?” Zhang Min was slightly startled.

“I don’t know him, but his strength doesn’t seem that impressive.

Although he is a High-level Student, with his ability, he probably doesn’t even have the capacity to extort Points from newcomers.

Thus, there must be someone supporting him from behind!” Jing Yan said with a smile.

“Jing Yan, since you’ve guessed it, how come…” Zhang Min was also impressed by Jing Yan’s meticulous thinking, but she was curious why, knowing Qian Bo had powerful backing, Jing Yan would still slap Qian Bo.

“What I despise the most are people like Qian Bo who bully others with their power.

As I said earlier, if I see him again, I would kill him, and I meant it.” Jing Yan spoke, “As for whoever is behind him, I don’t really care.”

“But, the person behind him is a member of the Criminal Punishment Hall!

He is one of the top ten experts of the Outer Court in Dao Yi Academy and is also a figure on the War God List, named Sun Xiao, ranking eighth!” Zhang Min furrowed her brows.

The War God List was a ranking of combat power in the Outer Court of Dao Yi Academy, featuring ten names representing ten individuals.

These ten people were publicly recognized as the top ten powerhouses of the Outer Court in Dao Yi Academy.

Perhaps, there were a few hidden experts in Dao Yi Academy’s Outer Court who preferred to stay out of the limelight, but such individuals were extremely rare.

Therefore, the ten powerhouses listed on the War God List could essentially be considered the strongest in the Outer Court.

These individuals were also highly likely to be promoted to Inner Court Students.

Once someone on the War God List was promoted to the Inner Court, their name would be removed, and new candidates absorbed.

Qian Bo was closely acquainted with Sun Xiao, who ranked eighth on the War God List and was also a member of the Law Enforcement Team of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Both of these identities were quite intimidating.

The students of Dao Yi Academy least wanted to deal with anyone from the Criminal Punishment Hall.

Although Jing Yan was a High-level Student with formidable strength and potential to be promoted to the Inner Court, offending someone from the Criminal Punishment Hall could also lead to serious trouble.

That was why, when Qian Bo initially troubled Jing Yan, Zhang Min wanted to urgently take Jing Yan away.

“It’s fine!” Jing Yan waved his hand, “This matter with Qian Bo is not my fault.

He provoked me first, asking me to hand over half of my Academy Points.

That I didn’t kill him outright was already giving him a chance.

The Law Enforcement Hall can’t target me over this!”

Jing Yan wasn’t very concerned about Sun Xiao, who backed Qian Bo.

Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Zhang Min could only sigh quietly.

Of course, if she knew that Jing Yan had even killed an Outer Court Deacon of the Divine Wind Academy, she might understand his stance on giving Qian Bo a chance.

“Jing Yan, the Cultivation Pool is just ahead!” Zhang Min pointed to a valley ahead.

The Cultivation Pool was located within the valley.

This valley was named Setting Sun Valley!

Although Jing Yan and Zhang Min were still outside, they could already see many Dao Yi Academy students inside the valley.

“Let’s go in and have a look.” Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly.

The two quickly entered the Setting Sun Valley.

On the cliffs on either side of the valley, there were caves of similar shapes, each sealed with a heavy stone door.

On the stone doors, there was a socket, which was used to place the Identity Tokens.

“Jing Yan, look,” those caves are the Cultivation Pools.

The sockets on the stone doors of the caves need to be fitted with an Identity Token to open,” Zhang Min explained to Jing Yan.

“Points are required, right?” Jing Yan asked.

“Of course, they’re required.

There are limited numbers of Cultivation Pools, and if Points weren’t required, I’m afraid all the students would be unwilling to leave them,” Zhang Min rolled her eyes, “the caves up front are all Low-level Cultivation Pools.

Further back, there are Intermediate Cultivation Pools, and at the very end, there are High-level Cultivation Pools.”

“Low-level Cultivation Pools require one hundred Points a day—Intermediate Cultivation Pools need three hundred Points a day, and High-level Cultivation Pools need a thousand Points a day.

To open a Low-level Cultivation Pool, the Identity Token must have at least a hundred Points, which will be deducted all at once.”

“After students enter a Cultivation Pool and if they stay longer than a day, a day’s worth of Points will be deducted again.

If the Points are insufficient, then the student inside will be automatically teleported out.

The same goes for Intermediate and High-level Cultivation Pools,” Zhang Min told Jing Yan.

“Understood,” Jing Yan nodded.

The consumption of these Cultivation Pools was indeed staggering.

To know, a new student at Dao Yi Academy generally received a reward of a hundred Academy Points.

In other words, this reward was only enough for one day’s cultivation in a Low-level Cultivation Pool.

“Let’s go take a look further back,” Jing Yan nodded, then added.

The two walked deeper into the valley.

Obviously, there were the most Low-level Cultivation Pools, followed by Intermediate Cultivation Pools, with the fewest being the High-level Cultivation Pools.

“Here, further back, are the High-level Cultivation Pools,” Zhang Min pointed at the caves further back, her eyes filled with a trace of expectation.

Jing Yan glanced at the cliffs on both sides, estimating that there were about twenty High-level Cultivation Pools, not many in number.

However, there were not many High-level Students at Dao Yi Academy either.

Moreover, with a thousand Points needed per day for a High-level Cultivation Pool, even High-level Students would likely struggle to afford extended periods inside.

Usually, they needed to save up for quite a while before they could afford to cultivate inside for a day or a few days.

The cost was terrifying.

Jing Yan had ten thousand Points, which meant he could only sustain ten days in a High-level Cultivation Pool.

Ten thousand Points were almost worth a Low-grade magic weapon, showing just how astonishing the consumption was when cultivating in these High-level Cultivation Pools.

“Senior Sister, how effective are these High-level Cultivation Pools?” Jing Yan turned and asked.

“This…” Zhang Min’s face flushed slightly, “Jing Yan, you know I’m only an Intermediate Student, I don’t have the capability to enter a High-level Cultivation Pool.

Even the Intermediate Cultivation Pool, I’ve only entered once, usually, I just cultivate in the Low-level Cultivation Pools.

However, the effects of the Intermediate Cultivation Pool are already amazing, with extremely high efficiency in cultivation.

If it’s a High-level Cultivation Pool, then the effects must be even more astonishing.

I am currently at the Innate Middle Stage realm, still some distance away from reaching the peak of the Innate Middle Stage.”

“Senior Sister, would you like to try the High-level Cultivation Pool?” Jing Yan asked with a smile.
