CHAPTER 213: CHAPTER 213 - DISAPPOINTED PRINCIPAL

"All the students who secure a top 10 position will get the chance to enter the spirit pond.

Many of you did not know about the spirit pond, so I should elaborate on it. The spirit pond is a mystical place that helps you absorb spiritual energy ten times faster.

It also helps your body become stronger. Use this chance to train your techniques and absorb spiritual energy.

After this opportunity, you will get another chance to enter the spirit pond during your 2nd year. Before this, if you wanted to enter the spirit pond, you needed almost 20,000 merit points.

So I hope all of you use this chance and do not slack off. For the students who do not get the chance to enter the spirit pond, you should learn something from this.

Looking at the results, I can tell many of you slacked off and did not think this surprise exam was important. This is a huge mistake, and many of us are really disappointed.

Even though your teachers reminded you more than once, you did not think this was an important exam. I hope that during your 2nd year you do not make the same mistake."

Principal Aditya finished his speech and silence fell inside the auditorium hall. All the teachers, including teacher Alexa, were observing the students’ reactions.

As expected, not only David and his friends, but all the students present were really speechless.

It looked like the information about the spirit pond was so surprising that they did not know what to say.

Immediately, many students began to regret their choices. Unfortunately, they could not do anything about it.

Even if they improved their grades, they would not get the chance to enter the spirit pond.

They realized that Aditya arranged the surprise exam specifically to give them the chance to secure a top 10 position. Unfortunately, it was already too late to realize this.

’Will I also benefit from this spirit pond? My talent is below average, and I don’t know if I would benefit from this spirit pond or not.

But I am really curious to see what will happen after entering the spirit pond.

Like in those reincarnation stories, this could be a miraculous place that helps you become stronger. It’s just that I don’t know if it will help me or not.’

Compared to others, David was wondering if this spirit pond would help him.

"Alright, my speech is finished. Tomorrow, all the students who get a top 10 position will be escorted by teacher Alexa to the spirit pond.

Before that, all of you should rest properly. Today, don’t put any pressure on your body and try to completely relax your mind. This will be beneficial."

After a while,

Aurora and David followed teacher Alexa. She had something to tell them. It could be related to the spirit pond, so David definitely wanted to hear.

"As Principal Aditya told both of you, don’t practice today. I don’t want either of you to put any kind of pressure on your bodies. Even normal exercise can cause pressure, which is not good for your bodies.

Your bodies must be in a relaxed state to get the most benefit from the spirit pond. The spirit pond expels impurities from your body.

But a tense body will not gain much benefit from the spirit pond. Therefore, just completely relax today. We will not have any training sessions, and you both do not have to attend battle class."

Alexa told them not to train today and to completely relax. After that, she left. The students who were not selected to visit the spirit pond would be attending battle class.

Alexa had to be present there as she was their class teacher. David and Aurora decided to go back to their rooms.

"Man, I really cannot believe we got this chance. To tell you, only the top 3 Academies have this kind of spirit pond.

Getting the chance to enter the spirit pond is really important for our growth. Even my family told me to perform better to get selected by Principal Aditya to enter the spirit pond.

I think we will go through a tough challenge to get permission. But who could have expected we would get the chance to enter the spirit pond that easily?"

Kevin exclaimed.

"I think you forgot one important thing. Principal Aditya arranged the surprise exam to give everyone a chance. He doesn’t care even if it is a student from a general class.

So I shouldn’t say this was easy because during 2nd year this challenge will be much tougher than now. During that time, we don’t know if we will get the chance or not.

So this time, I hope every one of you fully focuses on your cultivation and training. This is the perfect moment to improve ourselves."

Hearing that, everybody agreed with Lily. Even David was really curious about the spirit pond.

He decided to ask his friends about it. It looked like they already knew about the spirit pond even before entering the Academy.

"Spirit ponds contain a dense amount of spiritual energy. This spiritual energy is different from the spiritual energy present around us.

You can say it is a liquid form of spiritual energy. It greatly enhances our body strength alongside absorption ability.

But we always have to stay connected to the spirit pond. Nobody can build a spirit pond on their own.

They are created naturally. This is another reason why many people want a chance to enter the spirit pond.

Fortunately, our Academy has the spirit pond alongside the other two top Academies."

Max also shared what he knew about the spirit pond.

Getting the chance to enter the spirit pond was like a dream to him. He had already contacted his family and, as expected, they were really happy.

All the students followed teacher Alexa. They had already left the academic ground and arrived at a different place.

Behind their Academy, they suddenly noticed a place full of mist.
