The courses at Spirit Hall Academy are quite dull.
For geniuses like Qin Xuan and Song Qingling, who are one in a million, there is simply no need for guidance from so-called academy teachers.
The primary reason for enrolling at Spirit Hall Academy, aside from utilizing its resources, is the Mimicry Training Ground.
The Mimicry Training Ground at Spirit Hall Academy is the most elite facility across the entire continent.
Even Hu Liena spent two or three years at Spirit Hall Academy before moving on.
Due to the unique nature of the Nine Nether Evil God Tiger spirit, Qin Xuan's cultivation method differs fundamentally from other spirit masters; he has no need for mimicry training, but it is a different story for Zhu Zhuqing and the others.
Having a proper mimicry training venue will allow Zhu Zhuqing and the other women to achieve twice the result with half the effort in their cultivation.
At this moment, the group left the Soul Fighting Arena and stepped out of Spirit Hall Academy.
Qin Xuan led the women into a high-end teahouse.
They pushed open the door to a private room and took their seats in turn.
After the waiter served the fine black tea, Qin Xuan took a slow, unhurried sip and said calmly:
"Zhuqing, I assume you are all old acquaintances, so there is no need for me to make further introductions, right?"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly, then turned her gaze toward Xia Hui:
"May I ask who this is?"
Seeing this, Qin Xuan provided an introduction:
"Her name is Xia Hui, and she is the Young Sect Master of the Purple Heaven Sect."
"The Purple Heaven Sect has recently relocated to Spirit City."
"Please take care of me from now on!" Xia Hui said with a grin.
"Purple Heaven Sect..." Zhu Zhuqing murmured, then after a moment of hesitation, she cupped her hands toward Xia Hui in greeting.
"Zhuqing, looking at your half-informed expression, it seems you haven't heard of the Purple Heaven Sect?" Qin Xuan asked curiously.
Zhu Zhuqing gave a soft "hmm" and replied with some embarrassment: "There are too many factions, large and small, in the Star Luo Empire; I truly have no impression of the Purple Heaven Sect."
Hearing this, Xia Hui drained her teacup in one gulp, her eyes filled with longing as she spoke:
"After all, the Purple Heaven Sect is just a small second-rate sect, and our overall strength isn't much to speak of, so it's normal that you don't know us, Zhuqing."
"But I can guarantee that the Purple Heaven Sect will definitely have a place among the Upper Three Sects in the future!"
"Oh?" Zhu Zhuqing swept a glance at Qin Xuan without changing her expression, then looked at Xia Hui and remarked with emotion:
"Young Sect Master Xia, your determination is truly admirable."
"With your and Qingling's natural talent, I am sure you will both reach the Title Douluo realm in the future."
"Once that happens, having two Douluos in one sect will certainly give you the capital to contend with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
"Not to mention that the Purple Heaven Sect has Brother Qin as a powerful backer!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the room filled with hearty laughter.
Qin Xuan secretly observed Zhu Zhuqing, finding that this little black kitten wasn't as cold as she appeared in the original story; on the contrary, she was quite interesting when she spoke.
A mere unknown second-rate sect wanting to become one of the Upper Three Sects?
If anyone else had said this, Zhu Zhuqing would have thought it was nothing but a pipe dream, but Xia Hui was different.
In fact, back at the Soul Fighting Arena, she had already noticed many details.
The Song Qingling sisters were both at the peak of level 29, only a step away from their bottleneck; it wouldn't take more than two months for them to break through to the Spirit Elder rank.
It was clear their speed far exceeded that of their peers, so it wasn't hard to deduce that Qin Xuan had provided them with immortal herbs.
Zhu Zhuqing knew all too well the boost an immortal herb provided.
The Song sisters already possessed high talent, and now, bolstered by immortal herbs, their future breakthrough to the Title Douluo realm was practically a certainty.
With two Douluos in the sect and the backing of Spirit Hall, it wouldn't be difficult for the Purple Heaven Sect to become one of the Upper Three Sects in the future.
"Zhuqing, you don't need to call me Young Sect Master; just call me Xiaohui."
"Brother Qin has helped me immensely!"
"If not for his immortal herbs, I might have remained a lowly Spirit Elder for the rest of my life!"
"How so?" Zhu Zhuqing blinked her large eyes, asking curiously.
As soon as she finished, the Crape Myrtle Star Pagoda appeared in Xia Hui's left palm, and she briefly explained to Zhu Zhuqing the miraculous effects she experienced after consuming the Silk Velvet Tulip.
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but look shocked: "Xiaohui, are you saying that your Crape Myrtle Star Pagoda can both amplify and control?"
"Is this the only one of its kind on the entire continent?"
"It seems that even the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, known as the number one support spirit in the world, falls far short of your Crape Myrtle Star Pagoda!"
Hearing this, Xia Hui added: "Although the Crape Myrtle Star Pagoda contains control attributes, it can only be utilized after one possesses the Spirit Avatar."
Throughout this time, the three beauties had been chatting among themselves, while Qin Xuan sipped his tea and rarely interjected. Seeing that they had grown familiar with one another and had learned enough, he spoke slowly:
"The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament is in two years. I would like to take you all to compete; what are your thoughts?"
The women all expressed their agreement, after which Xia Hui asked with a puzzled look:
"Since we are entering the competition, we must be representing Spirit Hall Academy, right?"
"But hasn't the roster for the Spirit Hall Academy team already been finalized?"
"Personnel issues are trivial matters. As long as you all agree to participate, I will head to the Pope Hall in a moment and mention this to my teacher."
Once he finished speaking, the Song sisters' faces lit up with excitement. Participating in the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament offered a chance for practical combat experience, a path to fame, and the opportunity to vie for top-tier rewards—there was no reason not to go.
Besides, they could take this opportunity to promote the Purple Heaven Sect!
On the other side, Zhu Zhuqing's expression remained far more composed.
"Since that is the case, you should head back to the academy first; I am going to the Pope Hall to see my teacher."
"After all, for spirit masters like us, two years is like flowing water, gone in the blink of an eye. I must inform my teacher about our participation as soon as possible."
Hearing this, the women bid farewell to Qin Xuan and left the teahouse together.
Now, only Qin Xuan remained in the spacious private room.
He stroked the ring on his left index finger, lost in thought:
"Finally, I have the time to look at the Immortal Herb Codex that Yue Guan gave me."
"I wonder if it contains the origins of this sunflower?"
As he spoke, he retrieved the Immortal Herb Codex and a sunflower radiating a brilliant golden glow from his ring.
As he flipped through the pages, his brows gradually furrowed. It wasn't until he reached the end of the codex that his brow relaxed, and he exclaimed with great joy:
"So this flower is called the Eight Extremes Blazing Sun Flower! It possesses dual attributes of golden flame and divinity, and the blazing sun fragrance it emits can purify all evil!"
In his excitement, he tucked the Immortal Herb Codex back into his ring and began to examine the Eight Extremes Blazing Sun Flower closely.
Its flower head hung like a scorching sun, with eight layers of petals, each shimmering with golden divine radiance. Intricate golden inscriptions coiled around the stem.
After studying it for a long time, Qin Xuan exclaimed in wonder:
"The Eight Extremes Blazing Sun Flower seems to be highly compatible with the attributes of the Six-Winged Angel."
"It looks like this immortal herb belongs to Xue'er!"
