Chapter 974: Psionic Energy (9800 bonus)
Half a month later.
Inside the cafeteria.
Zhang Yexin stared at the mixed-grain rice, along with the eternal radish and pickled vegetables, with a look of deep misery... feeling as though he had lost a whole circle in size.
Sitting beside him were Hu Yue, Si Nan, Bai Qiudao, and Yuan Shiyan.
Where there are many people, there are naturally cliques; this is not strange at all.
Bai Qiudao shoveled rice into his mouth while saying, "I've been everywhere in the academy that's accessible, but there are no fortuitous encounters... especially the Library, which is actually still under construction... It might not even be finished by the time we graduate, and even if it were, there wouldn't be any books in it. Speechless..."
"Come, come, have a piece of sausage!"
"Actually... what we should be focusing on right now isn't choosing a discipline, but rather... the problem of how not to be eliminated in half a month."
After all, that is someone else's money!
"Alchemy, I suppose!"
Si Nan smiled and replied, then looked at Bai Qiudao: "What about you?"
"It might not necessarily be that name, because in this academy, our true names are known only to the instructors and the dean..."
"Same here... During meditation, I can see specks of light in the void, but I just can't attract them. It feels like a cat scratching at my heart; I'm so anxious!"
He could only work hard at taking notes every day, sharing learning experiences with everyone, and fostering an atmosphere of mutual exchange.
Yuan Shiyan laughed and said: "If you guys can't afford it, I'll pay it for you first, no interest."
Zhang Yexin widened his eyes, feeling somewhat incredulous.
When this topic was brought up, the other four at the table couldn't help but fall silent.
"Since that's the case, I don't like playing with bugs, so I'll just take the Witchcraft course... I'm still quite interested in Magic."
But if he didn't say it, who would know?
"I think... we still have to spend money to hire those students who have already completed their Psionic Extraction to tutor us!"
"Sigh..."
Compared to such resources, the desires of the palate must be endured for now.
"How is that impossible? Besides, the instructors don't take attendance..."
"Many thanks, Brother Rich!"
Hu Yue's expression was unreadable; in reality, he had liked the girl the moment he saw her, but he hadn't expected...
'Damn it, four people sharing one sausage... This kind of life is damn well worse than a beggar's...'
Si Nan poured a bucket of cold water at the right moment.
"Secret Teachings... because it has the fewest students, I actually feel that those mysterious rituals point directly to the origin of the supernatural... it's the most suitable discipline for research-oriented scholars."
Zhang Yexin sighed: "I feel I need to put effort into Mystical Anatomy. What about you guys?"
Si Nan adjusted his glasses.
For the first time, Zhang Yexin felt that this Supernatural Academy had also turned into a small society.
"What?"
"You can't say it like that... After all, supernatural beings also need logistics, and among the academy's six major disciplines, Potion and Alchemy is the logistics..."
"Cough, cough..."
Zhang Yexin sighed: "I'm more inclined toward Martial Arts... Brother Si Nan, what about you?"
"Haha... don't be afraid of that."
Si Nan calmly analyzed: "If Hu Yue is truly interested, we should support him. There is great potential for the future. Not to mention anything else, we ourselves have a great need for certain potions..."
The things in the school's small shop are deathly expensive; a single sausage costs several hundred. If you aren't a rich kid, you really can't afford to eat it.
Si Nan's face turned a bit green, as if he couldn't wait to use his chopsticks to shove that dry, sand-like rice down his throat.
Yuan Shiyan rubbed his stomach and said with a smile.
"It's not that bad, is it?"
"What does this count for? Everyone is about to enter university and step into a small society..." Yuan Shiyan said nonchalantly: "Some people are love gurus in high school... others are still virgins by the time they graduate college... Look at that girl!"
Yuan Shiyan's family is in business; he knows that when it's time to invest, one must not be stingy.
"I can enter a meditative state, but I don't know how to attract Psionic Particles or how to circulate them within my body..."
"I'm still one step away... Compared to those geniuses in the first tier who have already completed the Psionic Extraction Technique, I am ultimately lacking."
Zhang Yexin looked in the direction of Yuan Shiyan's finger and saw a cute girl with a baby face and a very full chest walking by.
After finishing his meal with difficulty, he spoke up: "We've all heard the courses for the six major disciplines. What are your aspirations?"
"This is just like the 'Philosopher's Stone' in alchemy; they are both ultimate subjects... even the instructors might not be able to do it."
After all, it's needed in class.
Yuan Shiyan smiled lecherously.
Hu Yue wore a mournful face.
Hu Yue happily used a rice spoon to cut a small piece of sausage. Although he had a little pocket money, he had spent it all on paper and pens.
"Looks very pure, right? In reality, she's very promiscuous... Not only has she taken many remedial classes, it's said she even tried to seduce an instructor... and ended up getting thrown out."
Yuan Shiyan gritted his teeth: "I heard that the private tutoring fee has recently risen to one hundred thousand per session... calculated per head. Some girls even pay with their bodies..."
He could never have imagined that he would end up in a Supernatural Academy located who knows where, sharing a single sausage with a bunch of classmates...
"She... seems to be called Cang Xuefei?"
Yuan Shiyan furtively pulled out a ham sausage, making Zhang Yexin's eyes turn green.
"Mm, I'll definitely give you the cost price then." Hu Yue nodded earnestly: "Besides, Potion and Alchemy isn't without any lethality. Instructor Harry has demonstrated it... by consuming a Wolf Blood Potion, one can transform into a werewolf for a certain period... and the later Dragon Vein Potion can even permanently solidify certain abilities of a dragon. I still have some ambition; I want to refine the Elixir of Immortality..."
Zhang Yexin also sighed.
It's a favor if people are willing to give, but it's their duty if they don't!
Watching Yuan Shiyan eat several sausages by herself, he had no face to ask for more.
But for a mere forty million, to be able to obtain four extraordinary talents, even if it were just to buy a favor, it would be very worth it!
In reality, he had completed the Psionic Extraction Technique three days ago and had officially extracted a wisp of Psionic Energy from the void.
Hu Yue thought for a moment and replied: "Although the Flying Sword is handsome and Magic is cool... but I still want to go learn Magic Potionology. By then, I can concoct some special potions; I probably can't concoct an Elixir of Immortality, but other magical potions should be possible. I can pay off my student loans within a year."
"Meditation is too hard, I can never concentrate." Yuan Shiyan wailed: "Old Bai, lend me your meditation notes to look at again..."
Si Nan shook his head and smiled: "Perhaps someone deliberately gave a fake name?"
Bai Qiudao answered calmly.
Zhang Yexin stuffed the sausage into her mouth, feeling that long-lost taste of meat, and felt a bit like crying.
Bai Qiudao thought seriously for a moment: "Also... the phenomenon of students forming cliques is becoming more and more serious, especially those people from the West Continent and South Continent, who have formed the Western Continent Gang and the Southern Continent Gang... they are very exclusionary! We also need to protect ourselves! After all... one can never underestimate the evil of human nature!"
Zhang Yexin did not know why, but she shivered coldly.
