Su Yuan returned to the Demon Capital and imdiately handed the Phoenix Nirvana Stone and Flare Silver Branch to Situ Qingyin.
Situ Qingyin was amazed and didn’t expect Su Yuan to gather the other two pieces of third-level materials so quickly!
After the two discussed so details about the style and specifications of the long knife, Su Yuan paid more than one million for the purchase of other first and second-level auxiliary materials needed for refining.
Finally, Situ Qingyin said it would take about a month to complete the weapon, and she would notify Su Yuan when it was ready.
Su Yuan thanked her and went directly back to the academy.
At this ti, nearly five months had passed since the freshman enrollnt at the beginning of September. It was already late January of the new year.
Not only Su Yuan but also the freshn of the Demon Capital Academy were growing rapidly using the academy’s platform.
Out of over two thousand freshn at the Demon Capital Academy, more than 700 had already broken through to the Bronze Level, and more than 50 had reached the Bronze Middle Stage!
The Star Power Academy also had a one-month winter break and sumr break in February and August, respectively.
During this period, there were no small classes, and the academy generally didn’t have any unified activities. At most, the ntors would have so tasks and arrangents.
But this didn’t make much difference for the academy students.
At the academy, if you didn’t advance, you would fall behind. The driving force was self-motivation.
If you didn’t seize the ti to improve, you would be surpassed by others and eventually fade into diocrity.
A few days later, He Yanan gathered everyone again and said there was sothing important to discuss, and it was best not to be absent.
In Classroom 1 of the Teaching Building 3, Su Yuan walked in.
"Su Yuan?!"
Sitting in the front row, Shang Baiyu saw Su Yuan, whom he hadn’t seen for a long ti. He greeted him with surprise and joy.
Shang Baiyu’s voice imdiately caught the attention of Zhang Tai, Lu Yingying, and other classmates.
Everyone took an extra look at Su Yuan. After all, Su Yuan had missed several small class sessions recently.
"Baiyu."
Su Yuan smiled and responded before sitting in the empty seat next to him.
That seat was where Su Yuan used to sit. Even though he hadn’t been there for so ti, no one else dared to take it.
Shang Baiyu sized Su Yuan up and down, then smiled: "You’ve been on leave quite long, over a month."
Su Yuan shook his head: "I had no choice. I was searching for artifact refining materials."
"Oh?" Shang Baiyu asked in a low voice, "Was it successful?"
"Fairly smooth. I’ve already tasked an artifact refiner to start the work."
"Impressive! It’s only been a few months since the start of the school year, and you’ve gathered all the materials for a blue star artifact and started refining it." Shang Baiyu expressed so amazent, then smiled, "Rember to show when it’s done."
Su Yuan laughed: "No problem."
As class ti approached, Xia Yue, Xiang Dingqian, and others also arrived one after another. When they saw Su Yuan, they nodded slightly in greeting, sowhat surprised.
Luo Bingtong arrived soon after and quietly sat in her usual seat to Su Yuan’s right.
Soon, Su Yuan’s phone buzzed.
"You’re back" — Luo Bingtong
Su Yuan turned his head and saw Luo Bingtong holding her phone with both hands. He replied, "Yeah, long ti no see."
...
At 8 o’clock, He Yanan walked into the classroom right on ti.
"Hello, students!" He Yanan greeted loudly.
With slightly dark and healthy skin and a firm and sexy figure, she seed perpetually full of energy.
"Hello, Teacher Xiao He!"
He Yanan nodded and got straight to the point: "Today, I’m not here to teach a lesson. There are mainly two important matters to discuss with you."
Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, He Yanan slowly began:
"The first matter is the Three Cities Elite Exchange Conference.
In about two or three months, next sester, the Three Capitals Academy Elite Exchange Conference will be held in the Demon City.
Including Demon Academy, Capitol City College, and our Demon Capital Academy."
"Exchange conference?"
"What kind of exchange?"
"Are there going to be matches?"
...
As soon as they heard about the exchange with Capitol City and Demon City, everyone got interested.
Compared to the academies in the South Pole and Qing Province, the students from Capitol City and Demon City were more attractive to the elite class.
He Yanan smiled: "Of course there will be matches. The main feature is the matches!
There will be an exchange competition. Although the specific form is not yet decided, it is likely to be a team competition of about five people, following the usual practice."
"Great! We can see the top talents from Demon City and Capitol City Academy in action!"
"Yeah, these two academies are ranked above our Demon Capital Academy. There might even be soone on Su Yuan’s level!"
...
Everyone was excited. Even if they couldn’t participate, witnessing top-tier academy battles in person was thrilling!
Zhang Tai asked: "Teacher Xiao He, since it’s an exchange competition with the geniuses from Capitol City and Demon City Academy, will there be any rewards for winning?"
"Of course, there will be rewards... Not only that, but the exchange conference is also set up precisely for the sake of these rewards."
An exchange conference for rewards?
He Yanan’s words imdiately piqued everyone’s curiosity.
"The outco of this exchange competition will decide the quota for the ’Demon City Holy Spring’."
Demon City Holy Spring?
Su Yuan and the others were puzzled, but Xia Yue from Demon City’s eyes lit up as if she knew sothing.
He Yanan noticed and said to Xia Yue: "Xia Yue, you should know about it. Please explain to everyone."
Xia Yue nodded and stood up: "In Demon City, there is a ’Holy Spring Secret Realm.’ This secret realm contains a Holy Spring that can enhance Star Power Cultivation.
It is said that anyone who enters the Holy Spring Secret Realm can basically improve by one small stage."

Just by entering, you could enhance by a small stage?
That was too powerful!
Everyone was shocked and quickly looked at He Yanan to see if it was true.
He Yanan nodded and signaled Xia Yue to sit down, then said: "Xia Yue is right. The Holy Spring Baptism can directly improve one small stage.
For example, most of you are at the Bronze Middle Stage now. After entering, most can break through to the Bronze High Stage!
And if you’re already at the Bronze High Stage... you might even step into Silver!"
"It’s really that powerful!"
"It’s way stronger than the Star Mist Pool!"
"Going from Interdiate to High Stage could save several months of training ti, not to ntion progressing from High Stage to Silver!"
...
He Yanan’s confirmation caused an uproar in the class. Everyone, including Su Yuan and Xiang Dingqian, was excited about the Holy Spring!
But such a treasure was surely not accessible to everyone.
If all students could use the Holy Spring, wouldn’t Demon City students have a substantial advantage over Capitol City and Demon Capital?
He Yanan continued: "The Holy Spring has limited production, and the quota for entering the Holy Spring Secret Realm is limited to 100 each year.
Of these, 70 are basic quotas: 30 for Demon City, and 20 each for Capitol City and Demon Capital.
The remaining 30 are additional quotas determined by the exchange competition!
First place in the competition gains an extra 20 spots;
Second place gains an extra 10 spots."
"At worst, only 20 spots..."
"Not enough even for the elite class. Wonder how it’ll be allocated."
"Looks like our class will compete for spots first..."
The class started whispering. Everyone wanted to go to the Demon City Holy Spring, but the limited spots made it tough.
He Yanan spoke slowly: "This ti, besides our class, the second and third classes will also be involved. The spots will be contested among students from all three classes.
When the competition format is confird, I will directly decide who will participate.
Those participating will not only get direct entry to the Holy Spring Secret Realm but, if they win first or second place and earn more spots for the academy, there will also be additional Academic Points and rewards."
Su Yuan thought that given his demonstrate strength, it was likely that Teacher Xiao He would choose him.
Even if not chosen, obtaining one of the 20 spots wouldn’t be too difficult, though it might take so effort.
Not just Su Yuan, but also Ye Qing, Xia Yue, Zhang Tai, and others appeared composed and confident.
Strength gave them the confidence. When you had strength, you weren’t afraid of competition!
So students in the class, however, seed anxious.
In the second and third classes, so students had surpassed those at the lower end of the elite class, like He Huanyan, who had obtained the Three-leaf Essence.
They might indeed take so spots from the elite class.
Mu Qingyu asked: "Teacher Xiao He, the Holy Spring is extrely precious. Why would Demon City students be willing to share it with us?"
He Yanan smiled: "This is thanks to the Education Bureau’s ’Three Capitals Academy Resource Sharing Agreent.’
For academies, besides the average student level, the strength of representatively top students is crucial.
Previously, the allure of the Demon City Holy Spring led many top talents to join Demon Academy.
With these top talents, Demon Academy consistently won first place in the national academy competition.
The academy’s ranking and influence increased, they received more resources from the Education Bureau, which attracted more top talents to Demon Academy...
Thus, the strong beca stronger until Demon Academy surpassed both Capitol City and Demon Capital, becoming unrivaled."
Shang Baiyu pondered and asked: "Such a dominant situation seems not very good?"
He Yanan nodded: "Indeed, one dominant academy isn’t conducive to the developnt of the entire education system.
So, the Education Bureau reford and proposed the ’Three Capitals Academy Resource Sharing Agreent.’
Each of the three academies opens so of its unique resources to the other two, including the Demon City Holy Spring.
This ans the Holy Spring is no longer exclusive to Demon Academy students. Top talents don’t need to enroll solely for the Holy Spring.
It balances the strength of the Three Capitals academies, promoting healthy competition.
Moreover, combining resources from all three academies allows top talents to access unique resources from the others, facilitating better growth.
This is a win-win situation for the entire education system and the top students in the Three Capitals academies."
No wonder…
The explanation made sense. It ant that if you were excellent enough, you could enjoy the resources unique to other academies.
