Chapter 46: Reserve Food: Xiao Wu The canteen at Nottingham Junior College is divided into two floors. The first floor is the dining area for civilian students and working students; the second floor is the dining area for aristocratic students and college teachers. "Why don't you go to the second floor?" Xiao Wu was puzzled when she learned from Wang Sheng that the food on the second floor was better. "We don't want to go to the second floor." Wang Sheng had a bitter face, and suddenly realized that Xiao Wu seemed to know nothing in some aspects. "On the first floor, one copper soul coin can buy three meals, and they are full. If you go to the second floor, one copper soul coin can only buy one meal at most." “Is the price difference so big?” Tang San was surprised. "There should be soul beast meat." Zhou Qing guessed, "I've read in books that some soul beasts that are ten years old can be domesticated and raised, such as the blue-feathered chicken. This soul beast gave up individual strength and chose the continuation of its bloodline. For the survival of the species, it has a strong ability to lay eggs, and its meat is also delicious." “Indeed, there is.” Wang Sheng said. He had also been to the second floor, but it was too expensive. A green-feathered chicken egg required five copper soul coins, and a green-feathered chicken required two silver soul coins! It’s not that we really can’t afford it, but part-time students don’t have much income on a normal day. It’s not worth it to spend a day’s or a week’s money just to eat an egg or a chicken.
Tang San finally understood how much energy a soul master needs to cultivate. Just eating creates the gap between civilian soul masters and noble soul masters. Noble soul masters have a lot of money and can buy soul beast meat. Tang San had already experienced the effect of soul beast meat when he was in the Holy Soul Village. The meat of the big white carp is not only delicious and nutritious, but it can also improve qi and blood. If you eat it regularly for many years, it may even speed up the cultivation of soul power. There was only one big white carp in that stream that became a soul beast. However, as the Lingyun Turtle grows, its spirit-gathering effect will continue to increase. In the future, the number of big white carp in that stream that transform into soul beasts should be greater, right? And right now, he and Zhou Qing are not short of money. Even so, this first meal had to be eaten on the first floor. Before understanding the specific situation of Notting College, one had to adhere to the principle of "wealth should not be exposed to the public". Zhou Qing also had the same idea. However, after everyone lined up and bought food from the window, several senior students with their heads held high and over or meters tall walked in from outside. When the students who were dining on the first floor saw them, they all buried their heads in their food, even lowered their voices, and did not dare to look each other in the eye. "Who are those people?" Xiao Wu frowned, "Looks quite arrogant." "That's Xiao Chenyu. He has always done his own thing in the academy, and he has already obtained a spirit ring. He is an eleventh-level spirit master." Wang Sheng's eyes were solemn but not timid as he spoke. "Hey, isn't this Wang Sheng?" Xiao Chenyu caught a glimpse of Wang Sheng, who came over with his followers. He glanced at the group of part-time students, his gaze lingered on Xiao Wu for a moment, and sneered, "There's actually such a cute little Loli this year?" "What did you say? Are you looking for a beating?" Xiao Wu dared to call herself a "little loli". She put the tray in her hand on the table, clenched her fist, and wanted to teach Xiao Chenyu a lesson. Eleventh-level soul master? She's not afraid! If she hadn't condensed her first soul ring, how could she dare to leave the Star Dou Great Forest? "Tsk." Xiao Chenyu was disdainful, but he didn't intend to cause trouble in the cafeteria. He just said to the followers behind him, "Come on, let's go upstairs. It's my treat today!"
"Long live Boss Xiao!" The followers behind him cheered and mocked Wang Sheng and others for never being able to eat soul beast meat in their lifetime. "Damn it! Those guys, who are they looking down on?" Xiao Wu was angry and was about to go up and cause trouble for them. Soul beast meat... Xiao Wu was a little unhappy about this, but what made her even more unhappy was that she was told that she couldn't afford it? joke! When she was in the Star Dou Great Forest, she had eaten many eggs of bird soul beasts. The one hundred thousand year old soft-bone rabbit was not raised on a vegetarian diet! Furthermore, she had seen the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python eat many low-level soul beasts before they grew to the 100,000-year level! "never mind." Wang Sheng hurriedly stopped Xiao Wu, his face full of panic, "Don't fight in the cafeteria. If the teacher finds out, you will be punished." "So, we can fight outside the cafeteria?" Zhou Qing had a strange train of thought and asked. "Um...anywhere else is fine as long as it's not in the teaching building or cafeteria." Wang Sheng said, "Besides, the academy doesn't care about students competing with each other, as long as they don't get disabled." Wang Sheng didn’t understand the other principles. But Zhou Qing understood that this was done intentionally by the academy. It was said to be for exchange, but the greater purpose should be to allow students to understand the cruelty of the soul master world imperceptibly. After all, a group that hunts soul beasts may fight to the death for a soul bone. If they are not good at fighting, it may be better for them to be sold and help count money when they enter the real soul master world in the future. [Such a world...] Zhou Qing pondered. "What's wrong?" Tang San saw that he was a little depressed and asked with concern. "Nothing, just a glimpse of the whole picture, and once again realized the cruelty of the spirit master world." Zhou Qing shook his head and told everyone his thoughts on the academy's disregard for the "competition" between students, but he found another more euphemistic reason: for the common progress of both parties! Wang Sheng and others were astonished. They didn't expect that there was such a saying. "That's what I said, but I still feel like there's something wrong with it." Xiao Wu retorted, "Isn't that just bullying?" “It’s bullying indeed.” Zhou Qing agreed with Xiao Wu's point of view, and it was not surprising that Xiao Wu had such an idea. After all, her work-study student quota was occupied by other villages, and she should have been influenced by the local villagers. Those villagers were the teachers who taught Xiao Wu the basic concepts of life. "Maybe the idea of the college is good, but the specific implementation is another way. But more of the reason is probably because this is just a junior college, the scale is relatively small, and it is difficult for the teachers to cover everything." "That can only be the reason." Wang Sheng nodded vigorously. After meal. Wang Sheng and others went to complete the work assigned to them by the college as part-time students. This was an opportunity for the part-time students to earn money. As a working student, Xiao Wu was naturally assigned tasks. But she didn't want to do it, so she said to Zhou Qing and Tang San: "You are official civilian students, you don't have a job, right? Why don't you help me do it?" Tang San directly refused: "I'm busy." The purpose of not being a part-time student is to gain a lot of time to study, practice, and research the core array of soul guides, not to work for others. "Where's Zhou Qing?" Xiao Wu looked at him with her big watery eyes, "Can you help me?"
"Okay, but the compensation from the academy has to be mine." Zhou Qing naturally looked down on that little compensation, but he couldn't let Xiao Wu develop the bad habit of asking for everything without her. While the other person is still young, the concept of how to behave in the world should be cultivated from an early age. and! It would be a shame to let such a hundred thousand year old soul beast go. Zhou Qing has already thought about how to treat her as a "reserve food". (End of this chapter)
