Chapter 62: Sixty Thousand Qi And Blood
The conditions set by Li Ye were quickly agreed to by No. 14 Middle School, without any haggling, though fulfillment would still take some time.
The next day, Li Ye went to school as usual, ate 50 points of Qi and Blood at noon as usual, then went to the library to look at information while comparing it with the disinfection software on his mobile phone, enriching himself further.
After the Martial Arts Competition ended, it was also time for East City District to select Experience Points.
Although Li Ye was not participating, he still needed to understand it.
Across the entire Shenzhou, due to its vast area, there were many undeveloped places, where insects, snakes, rats, ants, birds, beasts, and fish swarmed; once mutated, demonic creatures would appear, and to prevent them from proliferating, they naturally had to be dealt with.
The experience for Martial Arts Students was in these areas; the selected Experience Points were graded according to the practicality of the demonic creatures, whether as ingredients or usable materials, and how difficult they were to fight.
District Martial Arts Competition selects for the district, City Martial Arts Competition for the entire city, and Provincial Martial Arts Competition for the entire province.
Like Dragon Mountain selected last time by No. 14 Middle School, although they did not enter the Provincial Martial Arts Competition, they continued ranking based on their 22nd place in the City Martial Arts Competition at the time, and selected Dragon Mountain.
It was a high-difficulty Experience Point, but the demonic creature materials produced were also good.
The best Experience Point was, of course, one with high quantity, easy to fight, and even more valuable demonic creature materials.
The best Experience Point in East City District was a lake forest beyond the Village Town to the east, called Lion Pool Forest, surrounded by many demonic creatures, with extremely fresh fish that could be caught in the lake, their scales usable as medicine, with effects of increasing skin elasticity, aiding bone health, regulating blood lipid metabolism, and enhancing Immunity, favored by women.
Besides demonic creatures, there were also mutated plants that could be harvested around the lake forest; just collecting those could earn a lot of points, much simpler than Dragon Mountain.
It also yielded more Experience Points overall than Dragon Mountain, but it was within Li Ye’s tolerance range; according to the agreement they set, Li Ye had no intention of renegotiating conditions, and he didn’t believe No. 14 Middle School would be so obtuse as to cling to the previous treaty.
The experience time was set for October 1st, and that month, Li Ye received a total of thirty Nutritional Supplements.
Originally, main force players got four per week, but because they took first place in the District Martial Arts Competition, all Martial Artists got an extra one in the remaining time of September, and main force players got even more; Yang Jie got a total of twenty, while Li Ye naturally got more.
On October 1st, it was also the celebration day for the founding of Shenzhou, but Martial Arts Students had no holiday; after participating in the ceremony in the morning, they would board the bus in the afternoon and head to the Lion Pool Forest Experience Point.
Before leaving, Gu Yang specifically called Li Ye to the office.
“I’ve transferred two million to your card; the rest, as per your request, has all been exchanged for Nutritional Supplements.”
Li Ye wanted a total of six million in cash and cultivation resources, with a 20% premium, adding another 1.2 million; he took one million in cash, and converted the rest into Nutritional Supplements at 5,001 points each.
As for why two million.
“As per your request, the one-year reward is paid out all at once; two million includes the signing bonus and the remaining three experiences, totaling 1.9 million; the Principal’s idea was to round it up to two million for you.”
“Six point two million in cultivation resources, that is, 1240 Nutritional Supplements.”
“You won’t participate in the experiences after District Martial Arts Competition, City Martial Arts Competition, and Provincial Martial Arts Competition; those Experience Point rewards are also given to you, that’s 1800.”
“Including this Martial Arts Competition, the remaining Martial Arts Competition rewards… Normally, the rewards issued are diversified, including some Martial Arts more suitable for people, but since you passed the Three Passes, Martial Arts are unnecessary; you don’t like ingredients either, and knowing you want Nutritional Supplements, the Principal ran to four surrounding cities and even made a trip to neighboring Hongzhang Province to gather them for you!”
“All together, he gathered four thousand for you!”
Gu Yang pointed to the eight specially placed suitcases and said to Li Ye: “For this whole year, we’re counting on you!”
These cultivation resources were actually supposed to be issued systematically over the year, but since they knew Wuyu Middle School had returned empty-handed, and Li Ye’s conditions were not much different from those of an ordinary middle school, they unconditionally agreed to Li Ye’s request.
The day after Li Ye was approached by Wuyu Middle School, he made his request: to have the one-year rewards paid out all at once, with the condition that he would definitely participate in the Martial Arts Competition on time.
For other things, the Principal might have hesitated, as some required not just money and connections, but also time.
But just wanting Nutritional Supplements, there were no such concerns.
Originally, according to the reward fulfillment, around 3500 would be about right, but precisely because it was Nutritional Supplements, the Principal gritted his teeth, stamped his foot, and managed to gather four thousand.
Li Ye also knew that the school getting Nutritional Supplements was definitely not as valuable as demonic creatures, but he truly didn’t care; the ingredients in the canteen were all demonic creature ingredients, but in terms of effect, Nutritional Supplements were still the most practical.
Worthless in others’ eyes, but priceless in his.
A smile floated on Li Ye’s lips: “As the ancient saying goes, ‘eat people’s pay, worry people’s worries’; rest assured, for the Martial Arts Competition, I’ll definitely be in my best state, and you definitely won’t lose out.”
Gu Yang believed this point; he had easily passed the Three Passes and defeated Hua Zihang, which had already proven it.
In the entire Jianghuai Province, students who took the Three Passes route were few and far between; Li Ye was undoubtedly one of them no matter how you looked at it.
“Not going to check it out?”
With things settled, Gu Yang felt greatly relieved and smiled:
“Lion Pool Forest is a good place; I hear the fish there hook easily. You’re not participating in the experience, but it’s fine to go experience it; No. 14 Middle School is going to Lion Pool Forest for the first time, thanks to you.”
“Nah, I have more important things to do.”
Li Ye grabbed the handles of four suitcases with one hand and left with them.
While the Martial Arts Students headed to the Experience Point, he went home, directly got a big bowl at home, opened the suitcases, poured out the Nutritional Supplements, and drank.
[Qi and Blood: 4100]
[Twelve Golden Palace Dragon Tiger Gate: 12]
This Qi and Blood was what he had stored from going to the canteen every day in September, the extra Nutritional Supplements issued, and constantly operating the Foundation Establishment Technique.
Breaking Four Dragon Gates to Five Dragon Gates required 800 Qi and Blood; practicing with his Martial Arts, that was 8000, completely insufficient.
But now with this batch of Nutritional Supplements, it was no problem at all.
He filled a big bowl, took out the Five Flavors Chopsticks and plunged them straight into the bowl, drank it clean like soup in one breath of Qi, not wasting a single drop.
Purely drinking them was actually faster than at the canteen mixing Nutritional Supplements with ingredients as water; fill it up and drink.
In just two hours, four thousand Nutritional Supplements were emptied by him; the dragon blood components contained within were fully absorbed by the Food Qi Method, and under the enhancement of the Five Flavors Chopsticks, Qi and Blood surged.
[Qi and Blood: 64100]
[Twelve Golden Palace Dragon Tiger Gate: 12]
He slammed the bowl down heavily, his eyes bursting with sharp light.
“Time to train!”
