Perhaps better yet if your're going the edit route like I did:

 <?php
class ControllerExtensionExtensionPromotion extends Controller {
    public function index() {
    // MOD Eliminate Admin promotions - just return nothing.
    // we don't need to curl anything and might make site a touch faster
    return '';
    }
}

Dmitriy Zhuk's answer is the easiest to apply. An alternative if you want the change as a mod is to use something like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<modification>
    <name>Hide promotions in admin panel</name>
    <code>skippromotion</code>
    <version>3.0x</version>
    <author>TH</author>
    <link>https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55702884</link>
    <file path="admin/controller/extension/extension/*.php">
    <!-- Remove the 'promotions' feature -->
        <operation error="log">
            <search><![CDATA[$data['promotion'] = $this->load->controller('extension/extension/promotion');]]></search>
            <add position="replace"><![CDATA[
$data['promotion'] = '';
            ]]></add>
        </operation>
    </file>
</modification>

Save it as 'install.xml', zip it up as 'skippromotion.ocmod.zip' and upload it using the 'Installer' in the admin panel - then go to 'Modifications', enable the mod and refresh your mod cache. The ads should disappear from the admin panel.

Note that this mod works in a different way to Dmitriy Zhuk's answer, it's replacing every call to admin/controller/extension/extension/promotion.php rather than the value that script returns.

Obviously you'll need to disable the mod and change OPENCART_SERVER in your config if you ever start your own farm of OpenCart installations and want to advertise to your users.

In your OpenCart installation go to file

/admin/controller/extension/extension/promotion.php

and add replace this code on line 18

return $response;

with this 

return '';

This will remove any promotion you see in your OpenCart admin panel.

Enjoy!
