Chapter 565: Rooting For Brother Ren!

Seeing the words in the booklet getting blurry, Huang Xujie’s face turned ugly.
With a pungent smell, Little White’s urine flowed along the surface of the desk.
If it had been another puppy, Huang Xujie would have slapped it long ago. However, everyone knew that this puppy with golden paws was Hao Ren’s pet.
“Hehehe, Little White is so cute,” Huang Xujie looked at Little White who was cleaning its rump with the booklet and said against his will.
“I was looking for you.” Hao Ren picked up Little White with one hand and walked toward Academic Building F.
Lu Qi was no longer around the cafeteria, and only a few members of the Go Club operated the booth. It was nearly one o’clock in the afternoon, and it was time for the first general meeting of the Calligraphy Club.
Cla.s.sroom 101 in Academic Building F was the largest on campus, and it showed Lu Qi’s resourcefulness since he could borrow this cla.s.sroom for a club meeting.
When Hao Ren entered with Little White in his hand, the cla.s.sroom was fully seated.
Except for Xu Ke, all the young dragon cultivators in East Ocean University were gathered in the cla.s.sroom. When Hao Ren walked in, he felt the intense nature essence inside the room.
The noisy room quieted down when Hao Ren walked in.
Regardless of Hao Ren’s strength, he was an inspector. According to the information they got from their respective dragon clans, Hao Ren overpowered all the other compet.i.tors at Dragon G.o.d Shrine’s general exams and even defeated Lu Qi, who was at Dui-level, within two attacks.
“Ruff…”
Little White jumped onto the desk on the platform, taking the highest position in the cla.s.sroom.
Glancing at Little White, the cultivators didn’t dare to say anything. They knew that this puppy-like creature was Hao Ren’s spirit beast!
After transforming back to its snow lion form, it could defeat any of the cultivators in the cla.s.sroom!
Besides, they didn’t know that Little White had elevated to level 3; it meant that it could easily defeat Gen-level cultivators and could challenge Dui-level cultivators!
Hao Ren walked up, picked up Little White, and tossed it back down by his feet since it was not the time for Little White to show off.
Standing in the front of the room, he glanced around at the young cultivators and found most of them were at Gen-level and Zhen-level with a few at Dui-level.
Since the dragon cultivators lived longer than human cultivators, they could gain some experience in the cities when they were young. Only the cultivation geniuses had to stay in and cultivate under the collective guidance of several elders.
Anyway, it was a significant force with 500 Gen-level and Zhen-level cultivators together.
Even though there were many soldiers at East Ocean, their average level could barely reach Zhen-level.
Hum! Hum!
A red energy sphere suddenly rose and engulfed the whole cla.s.sroom.
Hao Ren steadied his nerves and said, “The chaos in East Ocean University ends today. From now on, I hope you’ll stop the conflicts between small groups and begin to share information while cultivating more diligently.
“Lu Qi is the vice president of the club, and he will manage the daily operation of the club. I’ll need two more vice presidents to a.s.sist him.”
“We all come from different dragon clans with different elemental attributes and cultivation techniques. I gather you into one club not to force you to stay together or create ranks among you. Wood, water, fire, and earth; each of the dragon clans has its own unique characteristics. We need to learn from each other instead of holding grudges against each other.”
Hao Ren talked smoothly in front of 500 people without showing any dread, surprising Lu Qi.
As a leader of a small high-end club, Lu Qi was experienced, but he didn’t expect Hao Ren to have the nerve to talk to and command the dragons from different dragon clans.
If it were the past, Hao Ren would have been blus.h.i.+ng at such an occasion. But now, he had even led an army of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so he didn’t feel nervous facing these young cultivators.
“I have ten level 4 foundation establishment pills here. The vice presidents each can have one pill, and the remaining seven pills will be left as rewards.” Hao Ren took out a bottle of elixirs from his necklace and placed it on the desk.
All the cultivators had their eyes on the white porcelain bottle on the desk.
Level 4 elixirs were rare.
They had joined the club due to their fear of Su Han and Hao Ren as inspectors, not expecting that they would get benefits from it.
For human cultivators, foundation establishment pills were holy elixirs for cultivation. It was the same for dragon cultivators; these foundation establishment pills could help them achieve realm elevation.
Most of the dragon clan only had level 3 elixir pills, and the smaller ones didn’t even possess level 3 elixir pills.
When Hao Ren offered them something that even their dragon clans didn’t have, they were tempted.
“I want to be a vice president! I want to be a vice president!”
The dragon cultivators raised their hands eagerly.
They had joined the club for safety reasons, hoping the two inspectors wouldn’t make them targets. But now, they found that they could earn cultivation resources which they couldn’t even get at their respective dragon clans, they all wanted to put in the work.
“Lu Qi will be in charge of the selection of the vice presidents and the work arrangements,” Hao Ren said.
In general, Hao Ren trusted Lu Qi. If they could select two more powerful cultivators as vice presidents, they could keep all the young cultivators in East Ocean University in control.
“One more thing. Now that we are a group, we must be united. I won’t tolerant any misconduct of any club members, and I won’t allow any of our members to be bullied. Regardless of the sizes and locations of your dragon clans, we are brothers and sisters as long as you are members of the Calligraphy Club of East Ocean University.”
Hao Ren’s words were heartfelt, and new club members were shaken by what he said.
They used to determine the relations.h.i.+ps between them according to their different elemental attributes and the locations of their dragon clans.
However, Hao Ren intended to unite them into a real circle instead of simply tossing them into a club. They would still be a member of the club years later after they leave East Ocean University.
The club would be similar to ordinary students’ Alumni a.s.sociation, and the members would continue to keep in touch and help each other after they went into different careers.
Hao Ren’s words instantly opened their future development.
For example, Lu Qi might return to his Wude Forrest Dragon Clan and become an elder. When he needed a piece of Bitter Bamboo from a wood-elemental dragon clan, his first thought might be to contact a member of the Calligraphy Club who was from such a dragon clan.
Similarly, if a club member from a wood-elemental dragon clan tried to find something in the Wude Forrest in the future, his first thought would be to contact Lu Qi.
Most of the young cultivators in East Ocean University were not the rare geniuses or future stars of their respective dragon clans. Thus, they didn’t have free access to the resources or the attention of their dragon clans. They had to rely on themselves, and Hao Ren’s club gave them hope and direction while they were in confusion!
“This is what I wanted to say,” Hao Ren finished speaking as he felt the emotion of his club members.
Over 500 students in the room remained silent, but they realized that Hao Ren was no ordinary cultivator!
“Brother Hao, shall we announce your battle with Xu Ke tonight?” Standing beside Hao Ren, Lu Qi reminded him.
“Go ahead.” Hao Ren nodded.
Lu Qi cleared his throat and said, “Tonight, Brother Hao will have a practice battle with Xu Ke from the metal-element dragon clan, and the venue is the sports field to the west of the swimming pool.”
“Xu Ke…” The members of the club looked at each other after hearing this name, and their interest was piqued at the mention of metal-elemental dragon clan.
Everyone knew that the metal-elemental dragon clan rarely involve themselves in the mortal world, and their cultivators were all hermits who almost had no dealings with other dragon clans.
However, all the metal-elemental dragon cultivators were masters, which was said to be the result of their bloodline or their cultivation method. After all, the cultivators with ordinary talent would be eliminated in the cruel cultivation process, making the number of metal-elemental dragon cultivators the smallest one among all five elemental dragon clans.
Now, a metal-elemental dragon had appeared in East Ocean University and would have a practice battle with their club president, Hao Ren. This news was quite stunning.
“It was said that Hao Ren’s strength far surpa.s.sed his realm, and his sudden eruption of strength during the Dragon G.o.d Shrine’s general exams even suppressed Qin Shaoyang, a Kun-level inspector…” they thought.
“If you have time, you may go there and root for Brother Hao.” Lu Qi looked at them again. “Earth-elemental dragons, stay behind to help me build the big array formation. The others are free to go.”
Hao Ren picked up Little White and withdrew the red energy sphere before walking out of the cla.s.sroom.
He wanted to fight Xu Ke and test his strength, but he wasn’t sure about the result of the fight.
With two elemental attributes of metal and water, Su Han had the bloodline of the metal-elemental dragons. However, she didn’t represent the strength of the metal-elemental dragons since she had been raised by Elder Xingyue of the East Ocean Dragon Palace.
Although Qin Shaoyang was from the metal-elemental dragon clan, Su Han said that he was just an ordinary guy in his clan, which was why he had entered the Dragon G.o.d Shrine after reaching Kun-level and continued his cultivation with the Dragon G.o.d Shrine’s resources.
In contrast, Xu Ke was brought up using the cruel and effective training methods of the metal-elemental dragon clan, and his master occupied Taiyi Cave in Zhongnan Mountain.
“He must have great talents to have been selected by his master,” Hao Ren thought as he walked toward Xu Ke’s dorm building.
