249: Black! Really black!!

“Rewards?”

In the office, hearing Yang Zixiong’s words, Wang Chen’s eyes lit up, and a shy smile appeared on his face.

“Principal, if you put it that way, then I’m not sleepy anymore!”

For a moment, he couldn't help but look at Vice-Principal Yang with anticipation.

On the other side.

Seeing the interest on Wang Chen’s face, Yang Zixiong also breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s good to be interested!

What he feared most was that this kid wouldn't be interested at all!

“Cough cough!”

Yang Zixiong cleared his throat and directly stated the rewards he and Lin Feng had discussed yesterday.

“This time you are representing our Blazing Dragon University to support Wushan University. First, all your expenses will be reimbursed by Wushan University.”

“Second, after obtaining the Secret Realm Key for the wild Secret Realm, you will have permanent free access to the school’s newly established Golden Secret Realm Dungeon. In addition, besides the usual maintenance fees, you will receive a 50% share annually.”

“This share is permanently valid. Even after you graduate, the school will convert the academic credits into resources of equivalent value.”

Yang Zixiong slowly said.

“Hiss!”

Hearing his words, Wang Chen’s eyes widened in shock, and he couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

This reward is simply too generous!

A Golden Secret Realm Dungeon costs five hundred academic credits to enter each time.

Permanent free use would save him a large amount of academic credits.

And the subsequent 50% annual share, even after deducting maintenance fees, would still be a terrifying amount.

The school has truly gone all out!

Although Wang Chen didn't fully understand the operation of Secret Realm Dungeons, he knew that the establishment of every Secret Realm Dungeon required a terrifying investment of resources.

This reward meant that he would permanently gain half the profits of a Golden Secret Realm Dungeon just by undertaking one mission.

It could simply be described as a huge profit with minimal investment!

“Hahaha, don’t get excited, I haven’t finished talking about the rewards yet.”

Seeing Wang Chen’s surprised expression, Yang Zixiong couldn't help but smile, and a long sigh of relief escaped his chest.

Good!

He’s still a kid after all!

Hearing these rewards, his emotions were clearly visible.

“There’s more?”

Hearing this, Wang Chen’s eyes widened, feeling a bit incredulous.

The rewards Vice-Principal Yang had just mentioned were already quite generous.

Could what was left for last be even better?

“Lin Feng said that your beast pet is currently on the verge of advancing and needs an enchantment jade.”

“Coincidentally, I have some connections with the Qing Qiu Clan. If you successfully complete this mission, I will help you get one.”

Yang Zixiong took a sip of tea and said indifferently.

“I’ll go!”

Hearing his words, Wang Chen agreed to go without any hesitation.

enchantment jade.

This super-grade magic Materials had been driving him crazy lately. He had searched all over Blazing Dragon University’s trading area and even asked Huang Yuan, but he couldn't find it.

Now that Vice-Principal Yang had it, even without the previous Secret Realm Dungeon reward, he would unhesitatingly participate in this joint activity with Wushan University just for the enchantment jade.

After speaking, Wang Chen looked at Lin Feng with gratitude.

Sure enough, nothing could be hidden from Master. It seemed Master had long been concerned about his search for the enchantment jade.

“Stop looking at me like that, it’s really nauseating!”

Noticing his disciple’s gaze, Lin Feng smiled and said with a feigned shiver.

To the side, Yang Zixiong’s mouth twitched at this scene.

“Is it really appropriate for you two to act so harmoniously as Master and disciple in front of me, an outsider?”

“Besides…”

“I was the one who got the enchantment jade. Wang Chen, shouldn’t you be thanking me if you’re going to thank anyone?”

Yang Zixiong muttered, feeling utterly exhausted.

“Alright!”

“That’s all for today. After the Three Academies Grand Competition ends tomorrow, you should head to Bright Moon Plain as soon as possible.”

“The people from Wushan University have already arrived. I believe you are not unfamiliar with them, so I won’t introduce them to you beforehand.”

Yang Zixiong waved his hand, feeling weary.

Seeing this,

Wang Chen didn't linger and respectfully took his leave.

...

...

After leaving Master’s office, Wang Chen rushed directly to Blazing Dragon University’s trading area without stopping.

He had already learned about the Materials needed for Tuan Tuan to advance to the adolescent stage, and he planned to get this done today, as well as sell off the equipment he no longer needed.

As soon as he appeared in the trading area, Wang Chen was stopped.

“Hello, Student Wang Chen!”

“Looking to buy equipment? Our trading house has a complete range of types, everything you could possibly need! Come on in and take a look!”

A female Awakener came up with a charming smile, looking as if she intended to drag Wang Chen directly into her shop if he nodded.

“I want to deal with a few pieces of equipment. Beautiful lady, does your shop buy them?”

Seeing this, Wang Chen discreetly took a step back, dodging the other party’s outstretched “devil’s claw.”

“Buy, of course we buy!”

“Our shop is a century-old establishment at Blazing Dragon University. Our reputation and credibility are impeccable, and we can definitely offer Student Wang Chen a fair price.”

The Young Miss was a bit disappointed that she didn’t manage to grab Wang Chen’s arm, but her expression was full of eagerness.

“Then let’s go!”

Hearing this, Wang Chen nodded and quickly asked the other party to lead the way.

Entering the shop, they went straight up to the VIP room on the second floor.

“These are the pieces of equipment I intend to sell.”

Sitting on the sofa, Wang Chen took out the items he had organized beforehand.

“Alright, I’ll help you assess their value first.”

The Awakener Equipment Appraiser who arrived began examining the equipment one by one.

When he saw the Serrated Longsword, his eyes lit up.

【Equipment: Serrated Longsword.】

【Type: Weapon.】

【Rank: Platinum.】

【Rank Limit: Rank 45.】

【Attributes: Strength +200, Physique +100, Speed +100.】

【Enchantment Effects: One: Increases attack damage by 10%. Two: Applies a bleeding effect. Wounds caused by the Serrated Longsword have their healing effectiveness reduced by 50%.】

...

Low-Rank Platinum Rank equipment, though not as rare as Diamond Rank equipment, was still scarce, not to mention those that could be used after the second transfer.

However, after careful observation, the Appraiser subtly shook his head, looking at Wang Chen with a sense of wasted treasure.

“Student Wang Chen.”

“Most of these items are Golden Rank and Silver Rank equipment. Our shop can buy them back for a price of ten million gold coins.”

“As for this Platinum Rank weapon, we can offer fifteen million gold coins.”

The Appraiser composed himself and said with a smile.

“What?!”

“This is a high-quality Platinum Rank equipment, and you’re only offering fifteen million gold coins for it?!”

Hearing his words, Wang Chen immediately became angry.

Greedy!

Truly greedy!

He had previously understood the price of Platinum Rank equipment; ordinary ones were worth ten million gold coins, and high-quality ones were above fifteen million.

Not to mention, his Serrated Longsword could be used at Rank 45, so selling it for twenty million gold coins would be more than enough.
