Xu Lingjun previously had a pretty good impression of the staff in the secret realm.
They proactively reminded him, telling him how he could earn enough academic credits to the maximum extent.
It was only when he reached the resource trade zone and inquired on his own that he realized... he was still being ripped off.
The smiles on those female staff were genuinely sweet, but they were also truly ruthless in their actions.
"The Bone Transforming Dragon, a Level 6 Demon Beast, is considered a flying demon, and it is extrely cautious and prudent, so its blood and flesh are actually extrely expensive since martial artists in the True Transformation Realm can’t fly."
Xu Lingjun absolutely didn’t expect to see Zong Xiaoping in the resource trade zone.
As for this, with an apron tied around, looking like a part-ti worker, Zong Xiaoping gave a very reasonable explanation.
Whose teaching assistant opened a shop in the trade zone?
Rather than doing miscellaneous work for others to earn academic credits, it’s better to work for his own teaching assistant. At least the credits given are higher, and there’s no need to be scolded by others.
After listening to Zong Xiaoping’s explanation, Xu Lingjun understood.
It turns out the Bone Transforming Dragon, because it’s a flying beast, is hard for martial artists in the True Transformation Realm to fly, making its blood and flesh extrely hard to acquire and rare, thereby making it very expensive.
"You know, if you purely consider combat prowess, the Bone Transforming Dragon might not even rank among the top ten in the secret realm, but if you add its extraordinary speed, it’s undoubtedly the hardest demon to hunt in the Miwu Ghost Forest."
After hearing Xu Lingjun’s story, Zong Xiaoping regretfully said, "What a pity, you sold it for 2 academic credits a pound, which is almost a loss of at least double that. By the way, how on earth did you defeat this Bone Transforming Dragon? The dragon is naturally cautious and prudent, and it’s almost impossible to kill it easily. Could you be flying in the secret realm with so kind of radar scanning always tracking it, so it couldn’t escape?"
Xu Lingjun: "........."
He got it all weirdly right.
But unfortunately, he missed the most crucial point.
There was no need to hide anything from Zong Xiaoping.
Xu Lingjun seriously explained, "Actually, I didn’t defeat the Bone Transforming Dragon. It was right after I got off the plane that a Bone Transforming Dragon flew right past, and the plane shot it down. I was still floating in the sky when its body landed right below . I didn’t even have ti to react. To be honest, my foot almost got sprained trying to support the dragon’s body."
Zong Xiaoping: "......"
He blinked in a daze and exclaid, "So, your Bone Transforming Dragon’s blood and flesh fell from the sky?"
"Yeah, straight from the sky, unapologetically crashing down. If I had reacted a fraction slower, that thing would have slamd right onto my head."
"You’re not at a loss then. After all, it was sothing you got for free in the first place."
Got it for free... plus from what he said, if he didn’t take it, it would’ve flattened him. This was heavenly providence.
Zong Xiaoping looked seriously at Xu Lingjun, couldn’t help but look again, and jealously said, "Could it be that heaven is a woman?"
Xu Lingjun asked, "What are you talking about?"
"Nothing, nothing at all."
Zong Xiaoping lowered his head, suppressing the loss in his heart...
While Xu Lingjun had already made a na for himself within the secret realm, he was still here selling items, not knowing when he’d enter the secret realm.
Even though he wasn’t trying to compete with Xu Lingjun, it still felt sowhat sour being left behind.
And after listening to Zong Xiaoping’s detailed explanations, at first, Xu Lingjun felt quite annoyed...
He found it laughable he used to think the official purchase price for at was reasonable, at most just slightly higher than normal, but in reality, they had ripped him off big ti.
But thinking about it, this demon beast wasn’t sothing he hunted, the plane gifted it to him...
It was an unexpected fortune, and after removing the parts burnt by laser beams, he only sold a small part, sending most of the best blood and flesh to his family and friends.
It’s not like he took a loss.
Xu Lingjun said, "Wait a mont."
He turned around, pretending to reach into his pocket.
A mont later, he took out a vacuum-sealed bag of raw at from the Transformation Capsule and said, "This is the blood and flesh of the Bone Transforming Dragon. I actually kept a large portion, sending most to my family and friends... I didn’t keep much for myself. Here are three or four pounds, you can have it."
"You... Old Xu, you..."
Zong Xiaoping was instantly moved.
One academic credit a pound, it’s not that he couldn’t afford it.
It’s just that there’s nowhere to buy it, and his current status didn’t permit indulgence with academic credits.
But if Xu Lingjun gave it to him...
And according to what he said, it’s a gift to close family and friends.
Strictly speaking, I, Zong Xiaoping, am a close friend of Xu Lingjun, aren’t I?
"Thanks a ton, Old Xu."
Zong Xiaoping took the at, and seriously said, "I will cherish this at and definitely cook it to perfection before eating."
"Do as you please with it."
Zong Xiaoping carefully stored the at and asked, "By the way, what do you plan to do here?"
"I plan to continue training in the secret realm. Before that, I’ll find a rchant to buy so of the at... You ntioned it yourself, the official purchase price is too low, it’s better to handle it myself, especially since my quantity is large, a fixed buyer would be more fitting."
Zong Xiaoping asked, "Is your quantity that large? I don’t know if my assistant tutor can handle it."
He had just finished speaking when his eyes brightened and said, "How about... I ask for you? If possible, sell it to , it’ll also boost my performance... and in terms of price, I can’t promise it to be very advantageous, but it definitely won’t be below the market average."
"Sure, go ahead and contact her."
"Alright, but she’s quite busy. We usually communicate via internal networks, even if there are issues, we discuss over the phone. I don’t usually bother her, but she might not be free right now... never mind, I’ll ask anyway."
Saying this, Zong Xiaoping took out his phone and made the call.
Shortly after.
He put down his phone with a speechless expression and said, "The senior said she was busy, but as soon as I ntioned Old Xu, you want to sell demon beast at, she said she’ll be here in ten minutes, so please wait for a bit."
"Alright, I’ll wait then."
Xu Lingjun casually sat down, chatting on and off with Zong Xiaoping.
anwhile, he slightly observed his cultivation progress during this ti...
Their life paces were entirely different, though they often stayed in contact via phone, it usually involved Zong Xiaoping complaining about how one of his roommates, after cultivating a certain Cultivation Technique, farts louder and sllier, causing chaos among their six people sharing nine roommates, severely impacting their training.
He had already paid for a year of accommodation, couldn’t just give it up.
Next year, he plans at least to move into a double-room dormitory.
Otherwise, it severely affects his training progress...
They never really talked about cultivation related topics.
Zong Xiaoping, though slightly proud as a son of a Martial Arts Family, was not arrogant and knew well the vast disparity between him and Xu Lingjun. Attempting to compare oneself forcibly could easily undermine his self-confidence.
Hence, their interaction was more like those between close mischievous friends.
Even he wondered...
How a good-looking person like Xu could completely overshadow him with won, even the assistant tutor never wandered more than three sentences away from ntioning Xu in their chats.
Yet sohow, how they ended up as good friends?
And when he saw his assistant tutor in a short skirt revealing her long legs, lightly made up, appearing exceptionally stunning.
Zong Xiaoping then understood.
Yes, because simply knowing Old Xu, although I had no presence among these won, I could receive their most unique other eyes... that’s right, on Old Xu’s account, they wouldn’t dare ignore either, I count as the in-law family.
"Achoo~~~!"
Within the Sun and Moon Bright Sect.
As Ji Roufeng was supervising Li Lei’s cultivation, she couldn’t help but let out an adorably cute sneeze...
Wondering if soone was thinking about her?
Could it be... him...
Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but beco a bit enamored.
(Title of the Chapter was mistakenly typed by a sneaky hand, but I don’t have the authority to change the Chapter, just a note and a quick apology at the end... Our English teacher learned it from the cafeteria cook, can’t help it. PS: The English teacher is nad Wang Wei, and their family indeed runs the school cafeteria, no exaggeration.)
