Exaggerated Treatment

Chapter 10 Exaggerated Treatment

Seeing Jing Hongchen's expectant expression, Lin Dong felt a sense of foreboding. He then slowly spoke:

"How about this, let's make a bet. If you can defeat a Soul Master of the same level, I'll allow you to leave the Soul Master Academy and even help you get a core disciple status in the Martial Soul Department. What do you say?"

Lin Dong looked at the sly smile on his lips and asked softly:

"Then, sir, what level of Soul Master do you think I should fight against?"

Seeing that he did not refuse, Jing Hongchen was overjoyed, and a sly smile curved her lips:

"Naturally, it's at the Soul Master level. Don't worry, I won't deliberately make things difficult for you."

"How many matches do I need to win? I hope you can keep your word and not go back on your word."

"Alright! Don't worry, I, Jing Hongchen, am not the kind of person to go back on my word. However, perhaps after you witness the power of soul tools, you might decide to join the Soul Master Academy yourself."

In short, the doors of the Soul Guidance Department are always open to you; you can come anytime you wish.

Since Jing Hongchen had already put it this way, Lin Dong had no choice but to nod helplessly.

"I'll consider it, sir. When will the operation take place?"

"Hehe, you can call me Dean from now on, or... Teacher is also fine. I'll send someone to tell you when the battle will start."

Seeing his inexplicably arrogant expression, Lin Dong's lips twitched: "Okay, Dean."

After hearing this, Jing Hongchen cleared his throat and hummed in agreement, then said in a highly suggestive tone:

"Lin Dong, shouldn't you change how you address him... um?"

Seeing the expectant look in his eyes, Lin Dong could only pretend to be clueless and said, "Okay, Dean, I'll be going now."

He didn't want to gain nothing and then be taken advantage of by this so-called dean for no reason.

Watching Lin Dong leave, Jing Hongchen's face showed a hint of regret. Such a talent, if he didn't become his student now, would probably be snatched away by Elder Kong.

Lin Dong only realized upon exiting that Jing Hongchen had already arranged for a servant to greet him respectfully upon his arrival.

"Hello, please come with me. I will take you to the accommodations arranged by Master Hongchen."

Lin Dong gave a soft "hmm," and soon the two arrived at a rather luxurious villa.

The waiter spoke first, explaining, "Brother Lin Dong, as the Hall Master of the Red Dust Hall personally instructed that you be given the highest level of treatment, what you see now is the highest-standard accommodation in our academy."

Looking at the magnificent building before him, Lin Dong couldn't help but marvel at its wealth. The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was truly incredibly powerful...

The waiter seemed to have read his mind and explained with a smile:

"The villa before you is probably the only one of its kind on the entire continent, and all those who live there are pillars of the empire. You deserve this treatment."

Looking into the waiter's ardent yet respectful eyes, for some reason, he seemed to vaguely see the shadows of his fellow disciples from the Dao Sect.

He then nodded kindly and smiled at the waiter, saying, "Your explanation was very helpful, thank you."

Seemingly surprised by Lin Dong's words, the waiter shook his head, somewhat flattered:

"Of course. By the way, forgive my bluntness, but although everyone living here is a prodigy, as you know, the more capable a person is, the worse their temper tends to be. Plus, they're at an age where they're prone to impulsiveness, so please try to be more careful."

Lin Dong frowned slightly after hearing this, but still smiled and nodded, saying, "Thank you."

Led by a waiter, Lin Dong stepped into the building, which covered an area of ​​at least a thousand square meters.

Looking along a long corridor covered with a red carpet, it seemed to stretch on forever. There were about a dozen rooms on either side of the corridor. The waiter patiently explained:

"There are nearly twenty bedrooms here, each occupying at least eighty square meters of space. They are occupied by the regular and reserve members who will participate in this Soul Master Competition."

The two walked along the corridor to the middle and stood in front of a room with Lin Dong's name posted on the door.

Lin Dong sighed at Jing Hongchen's efficiency and followed the waiter into the so-called bedroom.

Lin Dong was immediately struck by the sight before him as he entered the room. The entire room was covered in marble from floor to ceiling, with a huge crystal chandelier hanging in the center.

The waiter activated the charging soul guide on the wall, inputting soul power into it and pressing the switch. The central crystal chandelier instantly turned on, illuminating the entire bedroom brightly.

Looking at this amazing scene before him, Lin Dong realized it was the first time he had witnessed the wonders of this soul tool, and he couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

To the left of the room is a spacious walk-in closet, already filled with clean school uniforms and some gorgeous dresses, while to the right is a huge wine cabinet.

Looking at the various kinds of fine wines on display, Lin Dong couldn't help but ask, "Are these all free?"

The waiter turned and smiled, "Of course, the academy has prepared all of this. You just need to relax and enjoy yourself."

Lin Dong nodded and walked inside again. The waiter pushed open the glass door on the left side of the wall and introduced in a low voice:

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

"This is the bathroom provided for your bedroom. For your comfort, this toilet is made with the Empire's unique rare metals and can automatically adapt to your body temperature."

The mirror in the bathroom also utilizes the empire's most advanced technology to achieve maximum smoothness, allowing you to better manage your personal image.

If it weren't for the waiter's introduction, Lin Dong would have really thought that the restroom was nothing special except for being a bit bigger and cleaner.

With some curiosity, he gently placed his hand on the toilet seat, and almost instantly, he felt the temperature of the toilet seat suddenly reach the same temperature as his finger.

Lin Dong suppressed his shock and followed the waiter out of the restroom. Just as they entered the shower stall opposite, the waiter spoke up:

"The interior walls of this shower room, like the toilet, have an automatic temperature-regulating function, and the bathtub inside is the same."

Lin Dong nodded and followed the attendant to a large bed measuring three meters by three meters. After glancing at the bed, which was entirely made of white jade, the attendant's voice slowly rang out:

"This bed was also made of rare white jade by the academy. It is said to be able to accelerate the absorption of students' soul power and even reduce the risk of going into qi deviation during cultivation to a certain extent."

The bedding was made from ice silk, a specialty of the far north, which has excellent calming and soothing effects.

Lin Dong couldn't help but marvel upon hearing this; he had never seen such a grand gesture before. At this moment, the waiter pointed to the pillow on the bed and continued:

"This pillow is filled with the down of a rare ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, the Ice Jade Swan. To make this pillow, you would need to pluck the down from at least three of these soul beasts."

Lin Dong asked in surprise, "Are there any specific benefits?"

"It is said to be able to make people fall asleep instantly, and it also has the effect of improving mental strength and making soul power more concentrated."

Hearing the waiter's explanation, even Lin Dong had to admit that the treatment the academy gave him was indeed a bit too extravagant!
