Ye Mo pushed open the heavy mahogany door, and what came into view was a spacious and elegant room.

In the center of the room stood a massive round table, its top crafted from a single block of polished obsidian, emitting a faint psychic energy. Hanging on the surrounding walls were portraits of outstanding students from throughout the ancient capital's academy, each one vivid and lifelike, as if ready to step out of the painting at any moment.

A huge crystal chandelier is inlaid on the ceiling, and its soft light fills the entire room, giving people a solemn yet warm feeling.

Qin Yue, the principal of the Ancient Capital Academy, stood by the window, his back to the crowd. He wore a dark blue robe with golden runes embroidered on the cuffs, and exuded an aura of authority without even being angry. Hearing the door open, he slowly turned around, his gaze sweeping over the four people.

"Coming?" Qin Yue's voice was low and powerful, as if carrying an invisible pressure that made people hold their breath involuntarily.

Ye Mo and the other three nodded in greeting, and then, at Qin Yue's gesture, sat down at the round table. The room was silent, with only the light from the crystal chandelier casting a faint shadow on the table.

Qin Yue walked to the round table, resting his hands on it, and glanced at the four people one by one. "I have seen your performance. This year's freshman competition is the strongest ever. The four of you are worthy of the title of genius."

His gaze moved from Lin Xiyue to Li Xuan, and then paused for a moment when he looked at Qin Mu, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Qin Mu lowered his head slightly, a barely perceptible smile on his face.

As expected of the old principal's nephew, Qin Yue thought to himself. If he had to say who surprised him the most in today's competition, it was neither Li Xuan, who used his talent to allow his spirit pet to condense a pseudo-domain, nor Ye Mo, the strongest genius today, but Qin Mu, the nephew of his old predecessor Qin Henming.

As the grandnephew of the former president of the Ancient Capital Academy, and someone who had awakened the rare Eight Star Diagram, Qin Mu had been keeping an eye on him ever since he joined the Ancient Capital Academy's training program. As expected, Qin Mu eventually became a special recruit at the Ancient Capital Academy, becoming the strongest of the current class.

But even so, Qin Mu was still surprised that he could make his spirit pet awaken its domain at this point in time. He kept sighing in his heart that in terms of talent, each generation is stronger than the previous one.

After thinking about it, Qin Yue, the principal of Gudu, turned his gaze to the last person - Ye Mo.

If we talk about who is the most famous person in the entire ancient capital during this period, it must be Ye Mo, the peerless genius who broke the century-old record and has unimaginable talent.

After just one year as a Beastmaster, his cultivation had already reached the peak of the fourth stage, and his combat power had even reached the fifth stage, the King level. In his first college competition, he won the championship without a doubt.

As for the Freshman Tournament, there was no need to elaborate further. Just look at how easily Ye Mo won the championship. It could be said that if it weren't for the emergence of many exceptionally talented youngsters in this Freshman Tournament, he would have suspected that the Freshman Tournament was held specifically because of this genius, whom even he had to call a monster.

It's just that he had heard too much news about Ye Mo during this period of time, and he had already been shocked by all the things he should be shocked about, so he was so calm.

"I asked you to come here this time to give you the rewards for the freshman competition." Qin Yue said with a smile. Then he raised his hand and waved it. The light in the contract space lit up, and two boxes fell on the round table. "First, the rewards for the top four."

"Lin Xiyue, Li Xuan, this is your reward—the [Territory Seed]. It's an extremely rare resource. Once you return and have your pets absorb it, there's a high probability that you'll be able to condense the embryonic form of a territory. Of course, I suggest you wait until your pets have reached the peak of the fourth rank before using it. That way, the chances of success will be maximized."

"In addition, you will also have the opportunity to travel to the ancient capital [Xuanming Secret Realm] and the demon capital [Blood Refining Secret Realm]. The former is very helpful for your spirit pet to concentrate its soul, while the latter is very helpful for helping your spirit pet to build a solid foundation. If used well, both will increase the chances of your spirit pet successfully breaking through to the fifth level."

"Of course, whether it's the [Mysterious Netherworld Secret Realm] or the [Blood Refining Secret Realm], your pets need to master their domains before you can enter. Otherwise, it's too dangerous."

Having said this, Qin Mu smiled and nodded, pushed the two boxes over, and continued, "As for the other rewards, they will be distributed by your respective schools."

Lin Xiyue and Li Xuan took the jade box, their faces filled with excitement. Lin Xiyue said softly, "Thank you, Principal."

Li Xuan bowed solemnly: "Thank you."

Not to mention the rewards that their own school would give out later, based on these alone, the two of them could loudly say that their chances of breaking through to the fifth level had increased to at least 50%.

In this case, how could they not be happy?

Qin Yue nodded and said in a gentle tone: "You guys go back first and prepare well for the next training."

After Lin Xiyue and Li Xuan put the things back into the contract space, they nodded and stood up to leave. When leaving, Lin Xiyue deliberately glanced at Ye Mo, and Ye Mo chuckled and nodded.

After a while, after the two men left, only Ye Mo, Qin Mu, and Principal Qin Yue were left in the room.

The chandelier on the ceiling emitted a gentle glow. At one side of the round table, Qin Yue looked at Qin Mu with a hint of a smile on his face. "Qin Mu, I'm very satisfied with your performance. The original reward for the runner-up was also the [Territory Seed], but your spirit pet has already mastered the territory, so..."

He raised his hand and waved it, and a red flower with a black ghost mist and a skull face appeared on the table.

"This is the fifth-tier spiritual plant, the Blood-Eyed Ghost Flower. It's a special spiritual plant discovered by the Alliance in another world, and it's quite helpful for undead spirit pets to reach the fifth tier. This was originally a treasured possession of mine, but I think it's perfect for you, so I've decided to exchange it for your runner-up prize in the Freshman Competition. How do you think?"

Seeing this, Qin Mu was very excited and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, Principal. I am very satisfied. I am very satisfied."

This is the [Blood Eye Ghost Flower]. He had heard about this spiritual plant from his great-grandfather before. At that time, his great-grandfather had specifically told him about it. How could it be possible? His great-grandfather even wanted to get him a [Blood Eye Ghost Flower].

But unfortunately, this kind of resource is only produced in one alien world, and it is also very rare in that alien world. If you don’t live there and spend a lot of time there, it is very difficult to find it.

As for buying it with money, although due to its limitations, even if the [Blood Eye Ghost Flower] can help to break through the fifth level, its price will not be too outrageous. However, this kind of thing that is in short supply cannot be bought just because you want it.

Therefore, now that he had obtained a copy of the [Blood Eye Ghost Flower], he couldn't be more satisfied. After all, with the [Blood Eye Ghost Flower], his spirit pet only needed to condense a complete soul to break through the fifth level.

Even if the spirit pet fails to condense a complete soul, if it waits for a while to settle down after reaching the peak of the fourth level before breaking through, the [Blood Eye Ghost Flower] can increase the chance of a breakthrough by 40% to 50%.

Seeing this, Qin Yue walked over, patted Qin Mu on the shoulder, and said with a hint of elder’s kindness: “Go, practice well, and don’t let your great grandfather down.”

Qin Mu nodded solemnly, took the things, and turned to leave.

At this point, only Ye Mo and Qin Yue were left in the room.

"Ye Mo, your performance... can no longer be described as genius." Qin Yue walked up to Ye Mo with a meaningful smile on his face. Ye Mo smiled slightly and said modestly, "Principal, you are too kind."

Qin Yue shook his head: "No, this is true. Your real reward will be distributed by someone else personally. But before that, I still have a reward for you."

He raised his hand and waved it, and a crystal clear jade plate appeared on the table.

"This is a free opportunity to help your pet find its evolutionary path. It's very simple to use. Just go to the Breeder Association and make an appointment in advance, then take out this jade token."

"Don't underestimate this. Your spirit pets are of a very high level. Finding an evolutionary path for them is beyond the capability of ordinary trainers. Relying on the pets' intuition can easily lead to excessive consumption of resources."

"And with this jade token, the Cultivator Association will dispatch a dedicated team of sixth-level cultivators to tailor an evolution plan for your spirit pet."

Ye Mo took the jade token, secretly complaining in his heart. He had the detection function, and he already knew the evolutionary path of his spirit pet clearly. Why did he need this thing? This opportunity might be great for others, but it was really useless to him.

But he still maintained a respectful smile on his face: "Thank you, Principal. This award is very precious to me."

Seeing this, Qin Yue said no more, but smiled and said: "I hope you can make good use of this jade token."

After he finished speaking, he checked the time and finally sat down. He continued to say to Ye Mo, "Okay, you should sit down first. The person who is going to give you the reward hasn't arrived yet. Let's take a break first."

"Okay, Principal." Ye Mo nodded slightly after hearing this and then sat down.

Time passed slowly. In the spacious conference hall, Qin Yue took out some spiritual fruits full of spiritual energy, and then started chatting with Ye Mo like an elder.

The chat didn't touch on anything private; it was mostly about Qin Yue imparting his experience as a high-level beastmaster. Ye Mo benefited greatly from this, and his tone became even more respectful.

Finally, after dozens of minutes, there was a knock on the door. Qin Yue stood up with a smile in his eyes and walked straight to the door. Seeing this, Ye Mo immediately stood up and followed him.

As the door opened, a bent old man in a gray robe appeared before the two. He had a kind face, but his eyes were as deep as the abyss. Although he looked thin, he exuded unimaginable majesty and aura.

"Mr. Li, you are here, please come in." Qin Yue opened the door and said respectfully while standing aside.

Ye Mo was shocked when he saw this scene. He was not surprised by the attitude of the ancient capital principal, but because he knew the person who came. It was the senior Li Zhongguang who decided for him to join the seed plan some time ago, the master of Zhongzhou War Palace, and the legendary beastmaster!
"Hello, Senior Li."

Upon seeing this important figure, Ye Mo immediately bowed respectfully.

"Hahaha, long time no see, young friend Ye Mo." Li Zhongguang first nodded to Qin Yue, then looked at Ye Mo and said with a smile.

After he finished speaking, he took steady steps and strode towards the round table.

After Li Zhongguang sat down, he looked at Qin Mu and gestured. Qin Mu immediately nodded and said respectfully, "Mr. Li, Ye Mo will be handed over to you."

After saying this, Qin Mu quietly walked out of the room and closed the door.

Inside the room, Li Zhongguang looked at the curious Ye Mo, nodded, and said with a smile: "Ye Mo, I am very satisfied with your performance. The prize for the champion of this freshman competition and your prize for the otherworldly school competition will be distributed by me personally."

He raised his hand and the space opened up. A small jade box fell out of it and finally stopped about ten centimeters away from the table, just floating in the air.

Seeing this, Ye Mo became even more curious and stared at the box closely.

"Hahaha." Li Zhongguang laughed and waved his hand lightly. Suddenly, the jade box floating in the air was opened. A red light instantly lit up from it, and then the objects inside slowly rose up, revealing their appearance.

It was a crimson feather, about a foot long, with golden lines running across its surface, emitting a warm and powerful aura.

"This is the Phoenix Feather, an extremely precious treasure." Li Zhongguang looked at the feather with a hint of respect in his eyes. "It possesses powerful protective abilities. It can save your life in a critical moment. Even if you encounter a legendary being, it can protect you."

"Of course, its protective ability isn't attack, but escape and resuscitation. If used proactively, it can form a temporary barrier that even Legendaries can't break. It then traps you within it and carries you away at speeds even Legendaries can barely match."

"If you activate it passively, it will absorb your broken soul into the Phoenix Feather when your body is about to be annihilated and your spirit is about to be shattered. It will then carry you away and use the immortal power contained in the Phoenix Feather to reconstruct your body, allowing you to be fully revived."

"In other words, this [Phoenix Feather] is equivalent to giving you a second life." Li Zhongguang looked at Ye Mo seriously, his tone full of seriousness.

"What!" Upon hearing this, Ye Mo exclaimed in surprise, regardless of the fact that his detection function had not yet detected the information of [Phoenix Feather].

With Senior Li's status, it was impossible for him to lie. This [Phoenix Feather] really possessed such an outrageous ability.

Seeing Ye Mo's shocked expression, Li Zhongguang smiled slightly and said, "[Phoenix Feather] is originally only available to those who are in the first tier of the Seed Plan. You are only a second tier member of the second tier Seed Plan. Logically speaking, you cannot obtain it."

"But because you are truly talented, becoming a first-level member is only a matter of time. Plus, you won both the Freshman Tournament and the College Tournament, so this is being given to you early."

Ye Mo turned his gaze from [Phoenix Feather] to Li Zhongguang and said seriously, "Thank you, Senior Li."

"There's nothing to thank me for. You got it all by your own talent and strength. Put it away first. I'll tell you how to use it later." Li Zhongguang said casually, waving his hand.

"Yeah." Ye Mo nodded in response.
