Don’t worry, I eat very little.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting with Zhang Hao for a while and declining his invitation to team up in the next game, Xu Jingming ended the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Games... I feel like I haven’t touched one in ages,\" Xu Jingming murmured, a hint of nostalgia on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like most college students, in his past life, he’d spent most of his free time gaming during university.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only deleted the games during his senior year, to prepare for the graduate entrance exam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But his graduate studies turned out to be so hectic that he never picked them up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After crossing over to Blue Star, he’d been constantly busy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He barely had time to rest, let alone play games.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, the ordinary college life of his best friend Hao was what Xu Jingming truly longed for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he was naturally insecure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With ferocious beasts existing, a leisurely ordinary college life had long been ruled out for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s ten at night—I can train for two hours before sleeping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also, I need to deal with this batch of rare flowers and herbs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like tomorrow I’ll need to visit both the Equipment Department and the Alchemy Department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming’s gaze sharpened slightly; he changed into a loose training suit in his bedroom,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then picked up the Dark Cloud Gale Spear and entered the training room to begin his workout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early the next morning, after completing his usual morning training,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming went to the courier station to send the autographed photo to Zhang Hao, then headed to the Magic University Equipment Department.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since these two one-cubic-meter space rings weren’t produced by Magic University,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Equipment Department wouldn’t accept them for academic credits—only for Xia currency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each ring was worth 35 million Xia currency in buyback value; together, that totaled 70 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the official retail price of 50 million per ring on the open market, this was far lower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Jingming knew such buybacks could never match official retail prices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, even if you bought an item from a store and resold it untouched, its value would still plummet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d also checked online last night—most private buyers offered around 33 million.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This price was fairly reasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So when he left the Magic University Equipment Department, his bank balance had soared to a staggering 95 million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, his student account still held 1,903 academic credits from yesterday’s reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If converted entirely into Xia currency, his assets totaled over 110 million!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally saved up a small goal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming thought silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, for an adept, strength was the most important thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So these funds and resources needed to be consumed quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, having ten million in the bank was more than enough to handle most situations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll head to the Alchemy Department, offload these rare flowers and herbs, and maybe buy some suitable pills.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the Equipment Department, the Alchemy Department was a separate building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After explaining his purpose to the receptionist, he was led up to the third floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The third floor handles purchases of rare flowers and herbs. If you want to buy pills, take the elevator to the fifth floor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The staff bowed respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming nodded slightly, understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped out of the elevator and walked into the third-floor lobby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he entered, a rich herbal aroma filled his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Xu Jingming’s gaze swept the room—he took in everything at a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It resembled the ferocious beast material acquisition area on the sixth floor of the Yuan Shui Supply Base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were several rooms for buying rare flowers and herbs, plus sofas for waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But instead of queuing, they used a numbered call system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming took a queue number from the machine and sat down on a sofa to wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only ten in the morning—early—but nearly thirty to forty people were already waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even spotted a team of adventurers in bloodstained battle suits, clearly just returned from the wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only up to number 14—I’m 43. I’ll probably wait over an hour.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming frowned slightly—he hadn’t expected so many people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he could go upstairs and browse, but no matter how much he browsed, he couldn’t kill an hour that way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I could train a bit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s thought, Xu Jingming closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately began practicing his Ability Training Method, absorbing ambient Yuan energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, many adepts in the lobby were doing the same—those playing with phones were the minority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He trained like this for over half an hour, when a voice filled with surprise sounded beside him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? Junior, you’re here too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the familiar voice, Xu Jingming slowly opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, Jiang Chu stood nearby, elegant and poised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Jiang Chu, a teasing smile appeared on Xu Jingming’s stern face:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it isn’t Senior. Did you finally sober up from last night’s wine?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I sobered up long ago.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chu’s cheeks flushed red—she clearly remembered last night’s scene where she’d insisted he support her as she walked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That strong, steady arm—she still remembered it vividly...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, then asked curiously:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, are you here to sell the rare flowers and herbs you found in the cave?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not entirely—if I can find an alchemist willing to refine them into pills or potions, that’s fine too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Jingming nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although having an alchemist refine them into pills or potions required processing fees and additional materials,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it was still better than selling the raw herbs directly for credits or Xia currency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re looking for an alchemist? Don’t you think you already have one nearby—someone outstanding and stunningly beautiful?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-haired girl Jiang Chu’s eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She coughed lightly and puffed out her chest, as if the fact that she herself was the alchemist were written plainly on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You? Aren’t you just an amateur?” Xu Jingming frowned skeptically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who said I’m an amateur? I’ve even earned my Second-Rank Alchemist certification—I can easily brew Second-Rank pills.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Chu quickly retorted, “Besides, I’m not planning to film in the Wild Zones anymore—I’m going full-time as an alchemist.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1347,"2026-06-21T05:33:57.936Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","57c57f24ebfae0d2daea107a02e7ed0f16d3b67271d2224d364807dedb6c6d50","global-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-chapter-109","global-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-chapter-107",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-psychic-powers-starting-off-with-the-awak-cover.jpg"]
