Chapter 222 - 140: How to Alleviate Worry? Only by Making a Fortune!_1
After having tested her skills, despite the severe depletion of witch power, Huazhu still entered the Gate of Life and Death to undertake today’s Death Challenge.
The Passive Ability "Death Brand," belonging to the Instructor, could only record Fond Spirits of the same rank who died because of Ye Hanjun.
Now that she had advanced to the 2nd rank, the Gate of Life and Death naturally didn’t contain a fight avatar of the same level that could act as Huazhu’s opponent.
However, Huazhu was not at ease.
She had drawn the "Grass Butterfly" from the Great Completion of Clay Body.
Shockingly, not one, but a full ten emerged in the first round.
After rapid annihilation, twenty appeared all at once in the second round, covering the sky and earth as they swarmed towards her.
"Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!"
With the Hurricane Sand Hammer in hand, Huazhu was violently slashing and killing.
In the third round, thirty emerged.
In the fourth round, forty.
...
Within a short five minutes, by the time of the tenth round, a staggering one hundred Grass Butterflies were in a wild dance. Huazhu, heavily wounded and exhausted, was embroiled in a difficult struggle.
Even if each hammer strike could kill a large number.
But with their endless accumulation and incessant surges, regardless if you’re invincible at the same rank, you would still be worn out to death live.
Huazhu was defeated in the thirteenth round.
When she returned to the real world, her spirit was exhausted.
She feared that the Grass Butterfly, which she had never regarded seriously, would cast a shadow in her mind over the next few days.
...
The training for the day ended.
Ye Hanjun left the training hall, riding a bovine horse back to the Tiger Head Courtyard.
Only two hours had passed since the end of the newcomer competition, and a postman was already standing at the gate.
Upon receiving the express delivery, Ye Hanjun opened the parcel, revealing a sizable mechanical gift box inside.
As he lifted the box’s lid, a bright silver pentagonal badge came into view. Ye Hanjun uttered a light sound of surprise, showing a touch of emotion.
It had already been 41 days since he arrived at Canghai Pavilion.
Ye Hanjun indeed hadn’t expected that he would become a mentor with official enrolment today.
The initial plan was to seek an opportunity for enrolment after reaching the 2nd rank.
Renwo Kuang’s challenge had cut short the process, leading straight to the results.
Moreover, without the need for brewing, the spectacle of tens of thousands of spectators at today’s newcomer competition would surely make him famous overnight, with everyone in the North Campus knowing his name.
Allowing a bit of fermentation time, the South Campus would also likely hear about Master Han’s legendary experiences.
Once the name of Master Han reverberated throughout Canghai Pavilion, it wouldn’t take long for the neighboring Tianyafu Residence to hear bits and pieces of the news, making it impossible for Ye Hanjun to return to obscurity.
This way, by using the Way of Teaching to stand out, he had already taken the crucial first step.
This is far from enough, though, for he does not just want to walk one path; he wants to pass the Trial of Night.
Either he had to find a more valuable direction to research and explore...
Or he had to develop along multiple lines, amassing achievements from different tracks...
He pondered carefully for a moment.
Yejun Hanjun’s gaze returned to the real world.
In addition to the badge placed in the gift box, there was also an appointment letter and a bag of spirit stones.
The appointment letter mentioned again that official mentors have complete freedom. They don’t need to follow other mentors and are fully qualified to run their own classes.
The academy required Ye Hanjun to confirm his lecture’s theme within three days, whilst also submitting basic procedural explanations and material lists; he would receive assistance from the academy to prepare within reasonable limits.
As for the spirit stones, this was not a reward but deserved salaried compensation.
Official mentors received a minimum of 3,000 lower quality spirit stones each month.
Perhaps because of his new mentorship status, there was exactly that amount in the bag, not one less or one more.
This money was one of the reasons why Ye Hanjun wanted to become a mentor.
The current largest gap remained the "Blood Covenant Ceremony."
The preparation of all ceremonial materials required a base of at least 100,000 lower quality spirit stones.
Such expenditure would heavily pressurize most Patrons of the 3rd rank.
Indeed, they had stronger money-making abilities. Going out on a hunt with the Jade Infant fetus, the materials captured also held high value.
But the larger the income, the more terrifying the expenditure, making it easy to fall into a situation whereby the outgoings exceed the earnings.
Whether it’s cultivating Fond Spirits, maintaining equipment, purchasing life-saving magical tools...
Or daily life, caring for children, cultivating disciples...
Among the academy’s mentors, being able to produce tens of thousands of lower quality spirit stones for fluid capital at any time was a rarity.
On this basis, Ye Hanjun needed to multiply it by ten.
This calculation doesn’t include treasures like the Dimensional Space Bag. They are indispensable magical tools that couldn’t be exchanged for spirit stones.
The only way to worry less is to get rich!
He had to find a quick money-making method and finish the Blood Covenant ceremony as soon as possible.
Ye Hanjun moved leisurely to the washroom, turning on the tap to fill the bath.
While starting to soak, he kept contemplating this issue.
...
"Have you heard? That newly promoted mentor at the academy, he’s already announced his course theme!"
"Some people say he’s incredibly learned, knowledgeable in everything from the cosmos to geography. No matter what kind of Fond Spirit appears before him, he can quickly find its weak point... his lectures must be incredibly valuable- we have to hurry and enroll!"
In every corner of the North Campus streets where there was a bulletin board, students were on watch.
As soon as the news was released, because everyone wanted to join the craze, almost every place where a bulletin board was set up became crowded in the shortest amount of time.
An older student from the North Campus passed by riding a lion and, seeing the scene, couldn’t help but remind them:
"No need to push! I just came back from the Lecture Selection Hall, Master Han’s course was sold out as soon as it was announced!"
"What?!"
A crowd of people were surprised, with a few individuals unwilling to believe:
"Isn’t that too fast? Didn’t the news just come out? Can it be that exaggerated?"
