Chapter 54

It's best to wait until you get to school and find a school pharmacist to help refine it into a pill—then the effects will be better.

Of course, auxiliary materials and pharmaceutical costs can only be paid for with credit points.

Moreover, because our school has so many A-rank resources, this list doesn't include all of them.

If nothing here is what you want, you can wait until you get to school and choose then."

Su Mei reminded him.

As one of the top three universities in Zhongxia Nation, Suzhou University receives resources annually from the Zhongxia government.

The strongest president and several vice presidents also occasionally deposit good items into the school's warehouse.

This has led to years of accumulation, leaving the Suzhou University warehouse piled high with valuable items.

"Hm?"

Zhou Yi's heart stirred at this; he quickly asked:

"Teacher Su, does our school have the resource called Extreme Cold Ice Lotus?"

"Extreme Cold Ice Lotus? Wait a moment, let me check for you."

Su Mei pulled out her phone; a virtual projection appeared in midair, and she swiftly operated it.

Soon after, she shook her head and said:

"Extreme Cold Ice Lotus is an S-rank resource—extremely rare and scarce. Our school's warehouse doesn't have any stored."

"Understood."

Zhou Yi felt slightly disappointed.

Then again, if it were that easy to find, it wouldn't be classified as an S-rank resource.

"But if you need it, I'll keep an eye out for you."

Su Mei added.

"Then I'm in your debt, Teacher Su."

With a thanks, Zhou Yi checked the contract briefly, confirmed it had no issues, and then pressed his fingerprint at the bottom.

Hum~~~

The instant he raised his right hand, a six-pointed Starlight magic array appeared, locking his fingerprint firmly onto the contract.

This is the official magic contract establishment marker of Zhongxia Nation.

Once locked, the contract is officially binding—even a 60-level Third-turn mage cannot alter it without destroying the mark.

Because it's extremely secure and officially recognized, this kind of magic contract is used in all formal settings.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you earlier.

As a specially recruited provincial top scorer, you have the right to choose one Gold-rank weapon."

Su Mei waved her hand; magical energy surged, and a screen formed from stored magic appeared before Zhou Yi.

"Staff casting!"

Zhou Yi whispered inwardly.

Normally, mages need a staff or wand to cast spells.

But there is another technique: Staff casting.

However, this is a skill usually only mastered by High-rank mages.

"May I ask politely, Teacher Su, what level are you?"

Zhou Yi asked curiously.

Using Appraisal Technique on others is extremely impolite.

Especially before a strong person—mistake it, and you won't gain any information, but might suffer backlash from a failed Appraisal Technique.

So he didn't know Su Mei's occupational level.

"Me? 42-level Second-turn mage."

Su Mei didn't hide it.

"42-level?!"

Zhou Yi's eyes nearly bulged out.

From her appearance, Teacher Su might not even be thirty years old.

Yet she's already a 42-level powerhouse—utterly terrifying!

"Don't be so shocked. Once you enter Suzhou University, you'll see even stronger people.

Even some exceptionally gifted students have reached my level."

Thinking of the school's prodigies, Su Mei's expression turned wistful.

Those students are truly limitless in potential.

"A student at 42-level? That means he's not even twenty-three yet?"

Zhou Yi felt his mind struggling to keep up.

In Lijiang City, encountering a 30-level occupationalist is already remarkable.

If someone reaches 25-level by age twenty-three, they're hailed as a genius.

Yet here, at Suzhou University, someone can reach 42-level by age twenty-three!!

Zhou Yi's worldview felt shaken to its core.

"Lijiang is still too small. It's normal you didn't know this.

Once you get to Suzhou University, you'll realize how vast and dazzling the outside world is."

As if recalling her own first day at Suzhou University, Su Mei's beautiful eyes held a look of nostalgia.

Back then, she was just like Zhou Yi.

He was a naive kid from a small place, still knowing nothing...

"The outside world."

Zhou Yi's gaze gradually hardened.

Indeed, Lijiang City was still too small.

Only when he reached Suzhou-Hangzhou University and encountered geniuses from all across the country

would he understand what the world was truly like.

At the same time, he felt a certain anticipation.

Just how powerful would these geniuses be?

Would they give him a surprise?
