165: cunning woman

Luo Jiang Prefecture, Base No. 7.

Xiao Weiqing walked out of the black building.

"General, may I ask how to exchange for contribution points?"

The guard saw Xiao Weiqing's youthful face and said with a gentle expression:

"I cannot accept the title of General. Go to the base center; there is a red building there where you can make the exchange."

"Thank you!"

Xiao Weiqing headed to the red building in the base center with a dozen medals.

He found an unmanned counter.

"Hello, I am here to exchange for contribution points."

Xiao Weiqing took out all of his dozen or so medals.

The staff member was slightly surprised, not expecting someone as young as Xiao Weiqing to be able to produce so many medals.

"Please wait a moment."

The staff member took out an instrument and scanned all the medals with it.

"That is a total of 382 contribution points. Would you like to exchange all of them?"

Xiao Weiqing nodded, "Yes."

"Very well!"

"Please show me your Wristband."

Very quickly, in less than a minute, the procedures were all completed.

"That is all set. Is there anything else you need?"

"How do I purchase divine charm substance?"

"The Wristband has a contribution points System added to it. You can enter the System to make purchases. Different divine charm substances have different purchase requirements, and some treasures require an appointment."

"After purchasing, a specialist will deliver it to you."

Xiao Weiqing nodded, "Thank you."

Since Base No. 7 would not open until tomorrow, Xiao Weiqing had to wait in the base for a day.

Nighttime.

After Cultivating, Xiao Weiqing opened his Wristband to check for divine charm substance.

"Are there Ranks for divine charm substance as well?"

Substances containing 1-10 units of divine charm are called Rank 1 divine charm substance.

Crystals like the elemental essence crystal belong to Rank 1 divine charm substance; one elemental essence crystal contains 1-3 units of divine charm.

11-100 units is Rank 2 divine charm substance.

Over 100 units belongs to Rank 3, also known as divine charm treasure.

divine charm substance exchange permissions:

contribution points under 1,000 only have exchange permissions for Rank 1 divine charm substance.

contribution points between 1,000 and 10,000 can exchange for Rank 2.

Only with over 10,000 contribution points can one exchange for Rank 3 divine charm treasure, and there is an annual limit on the number of times.

Only upon reaching 100,000 contribution points is there no limit to the number of times one can exchange for divine charm treasure.

What is the concept of 100,000 contribution points? One would have to kill 10 Sixth Realm Demon Kings or one Seventh Realm Great Demon King.

Browsing through the discovered divine charm treasures made Xiao Weiqing drool, but the daunting contribution points and the high prices made him sigh deeply.

"Hmm?"

"mind spirit fruit?"

mind spirit fruit belongs to Rank 3 divine charm treasure; one mind spirit fruit contains about 130-150 units of divine charm and is a genuine treasure for Spirit Cultivator Awakening.

"1 million points?"

"That's right, the Cultivation resources sold by the Academy are generally much cheaper."

"I lost out."

Xiao Weiqing slapped his thigh; he had valued the mind spirit fruit at 800,000 points when giving it to Qian Yi.

Suddenly.

A flash of inspiration struck Xiao Weiqing.

"Wait, Teacher Qian used up her exchange quota for Rank 3 divine charm treasure; it doesn't necessarily mean she didn't have the points. She was lying to me."

Xiao Weiqing had suspected it before; as a Sixth Realm Powerhouse about to Breakthrough to the Seventh Realm, how could she not be able to come up with 600,000 points?

Now, seeing all this, Xiao Weiqing finally understood.

"This cunning woman, I will go find her tomorrow!"

...

The next day.

Xiao Weiqing left Base No. 7 and quickly returned to Luo Jiang Academy.

After returning to the Academy, he headed straight for Qian Yi's small courtyard.

"Teacher Qian, are you there?"

"I am not here!"

Xiao Weiqing: "..."

"Teacher Qian, I am here to see you. Please open the door."

"Teacher is doing just fine and does not need you to see me. Go back; don't neglect your Cultivation."

At this moment, Qian Yi was lying on a recliner, her eyes slightly squinted, stretching her body and revealing her voluptuous figure.

"Teacher, open the door and let me in to talk."

"I will not open it. A lone man and woman—you may not care about your reputation, but I certainly do."

Outside the door, Xiao Weiqing's eyes darkened, "Teacher Qian, I just returned from Base No. 7."

Once these words were spoken.

Qian Yi became much more alert, "Base No. 7? You have been to the Demon Realm?"

"Yes."

"Then why are you here? Why not go back and hurry up and Cultivate? Saving Blue Star depends on you."

"I came to ask about the contribution points?"

Qian Yi's heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad premonition, "Is... that so..."

"Teacher Qian, I think we need to talk."

Click...

Qian Yi opened the courtyard door, smiling broadly, "Come in quickly, why are you standing outside?"

Xiao Weiqing followed Qian Yi to the pavilion and watched her brew tea and hand him a cup, saying nothing.

"Come, Weiqing, have some hot tea."

"I was in contact with Wei Lan yesterday, and I spoke quite a few good words for you."

Xiao Weiqing said coldly, "Ever since I entered the Demon Realm, Wei Lan has been Cultivating inside her Family's ruins and hasn't come out yet."

Qian Yi's hand pouring the tea paused, but she quickly returned to her natural state, "Is that so... Then perhaps I remembered wrong, but I have often spoken well of you in the past."

"Teacher Qian, do you think that with the relationship between Wei Lan and me, that is necessary?"

Seeing that Xiao Weiqing was unmoved.

Qian Yi put her hands on her hips, her chest even more prominent.

She said in embarrassed anger, "Xiao Weiqing, let me tell you, don't go too far; I am your teacher."

"Then return my points."

A few seconds of silence.

Qian Yi put on a smiling face, "Oh my, Weiqing, I am your teacher; don't be so unfeeling."

"Hmph!"

"Then let me ask you, do you have points?"

"No."

"I don't believe it."

Qian Yi replied, "I had some the day before yesterday, but yesterday, the annual quota for exchanging divine charm treasures reset, and I bought a few more mind spirit fruits. Now I only have a few thousand points left. If you want them, I will give them all to you."

"You!"

"Oh, Weiqing, don't be angry. You don't need that many points right now anyway. Teacher is at a critical moment of Breakthrough. Once I Breakthrough to the Seventh Realm, I will ensure you can walk sideways in this Academy."

"My teacher is Principal Ning."

Qian Yi: "..."

"Then tell me what to do. In any case, I don't have points, and if you want my life, I won't give that either."

Qian Yi threw caution to the wind.

Xiao Weiqing was helpless, "Teacher Qian, help me exchange for some Rank 2 divine charm substance."

"I have no points."

"I have them."

Qian Yi's eyes lit up, "How many?"

"That has nothing to do with Teacher Qian."

"Tch, if you won't say, then don't. Tell me what you want to exchange for and how much?"

"Fire Spirit Wood Core, exchange for 150,000 points."

Qian Yi exclaimed, "150,000 points?"

"What do you need so many Fire Spirit Wood Cores for?"

"It's a secret."

Qian Yi sat up straight and said seriously, "Weiqing, Fire Spirit Wood Core is not considered very good among Rank 2 divine charm substances. I need to be responsible for you; if you don't explain the reason, I won't help you exchange for it."

"Trust your teacher; your Spiritual Veins are not yet fully formed, and absorbing divine charm too early will not benefit you."

"Teacher, rest assured, I am not absorbing it myself. Previously, in Civilization Relic No. 1, I obtained a companion weapon from a Sixth Realm Powerhouse before they passed away. I need the divine charm to nourish the companion weapon."

"Really?"

Xiao Weiqing extended his hand, a golden light flashed, and the thousand flame blade appeared in his hand.

Qian Yi's eyes lit up, "So that's it."

She added, "You are only at the Second Realm right now; the nourishment speed shouldn't be that fast, right? Why do you need so much divine charm substance?"
