168: Chapter 168 Tea Shortage!

As soon as Su Lin entered the Martial God Milk Tea Shop, he became the center of everyone's attention.

"That's Su Lin!"

"He's already out of the Secret Realm of Swords!?"

"He looks to be in a good mood!? Could it be that he obtained some great fortune inside the Secret Realm of Swords!?"

Many people immediately began to whisper and discuss. At this moment, the Secret Realm of Swords had not completely ended yet, so news about Su Lin had not spread thoroughly, and everyone still knew very little about Su Lin's trip to the secret realm.

They only knew that Su Lin was the only freshman to enter the Secret Realm of Swords.

That alone was already exaggerated enough!

"Boss, you're here!"

Manager Xia Wan, Yu Ruoxue, and the others immediately stopped working and politely greeted Su Lin.

After Su Lin nodded gently in response, he walked straight into the back work area.

At this moment, Manager Xia Wan and the others quickly resumed making milk tea. Their hands moved extremely fast; in the blink of an eye, the empty table was filled with prepared milk tea, leaving people wondering how they managed to work so quickly.

Watching the speed at which they made milk tea, Su Lin nodded. He had originally worried that the shop's customer traffic was too high and wondered if these three or four people could handle it, but now that worry had immediately vanished. Their speed in making milk tea was simply more than enough.

The four of them were martial artists, possessing great vitality and talent. Their hands were as fast as lightning, and with the cultivation of Su Lin's Milk Tea Master talent, these people had become experts at making milk tea. Furthermore, through the tempering of running the shop over these past few days, their ability and speed in making milk tea had improved significantly once again.

However, the three of them would occasionally glance toward Su Lin while making the milk tea; they were surely full of curiosity about him but were too shy to come over and ask.

At this time, Manager Xia Wan and the other two were making milk tea, while Yu Ruoxue was doing the accounts in the back. Su Lin walked over and asked, "How is the milk tea selling?"

"Boss, the milk tea is selling like crazy! There are more customers every day, and the milk tea is in short supply every day!"

"Is that so?"

Upon hearing this, Su Lin immediately smiled. He stared at the account book; in just two days, the Martial God Milk Tea Shop had earned over a thousand credits. It wouldn't be long before it caught up to the rewards for first place on the freshman leaderboard.

Others had to go through all sorts of hardships and exhaustion to compete for the freshman leaderboard, while he had opened a milk tea shop and could earn so many credits just by lying around every day.

Thinking of this, Su Lin immediately felt secretly delighted. Earning credits was just so satisfying.

Just then, Manager Xia Wan suddenly walked over and said, "Boss, the high-grade tea leaves have run out. When will we be restocking?"

"The customers are very unhappy that they can't buy the high-grade milk tea."

Su Lin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

"They ran out so quickly?"

It had only been two days. The tea leaves Gu Jianhao had given Su Lin were not few, and making a cup of milk tea didn't require many tea leaves at all. However, he hadn't expected the consumption rate of the high-grade tea leaves to exceed his imagination.

Su Lin followed Manager Xia Wan to the tea leaf storage room. There really wasn't a single leaf of high-grade tea left.

"This..."

Su Lin didn't know where to restock for a moment. He couldn't go back to Tianhai City and ask Gu Jianhao for more, and besides, Gu Jianhao didn't have enough tea leaves to meet the demands of the Martial God Milk Tea Shop.

Even if he bought some high-grade tea leaves himself, Su Lin didn't know if they would have the same effect as Gu Jianhao's tea leaves.

Because of the superior quality of Gu Jianhao's tea leaves, the probability of everyone obtaining the milk tea bonus had increased significantly, and the guaranteed bonus attribute was also slightly higher.

Trying to find the kind of tea leaves Gu Jianhao gave was difficult enough, not to mention that the cost might be more than ten times higher. Fortunately, Gu Jianhao had given them as a gift, which allowed Su Lin to taste the dividends of high-grade tea leaves.

"Let's buy some cheaper high-grade tea leaves to make do for now."

Su Lin was about to go to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races, so he naturally didn't have time to search for high-grade tea leaves in the imperial capital.

"Perhaps I can find some tea leaves in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races?"

Su Lin thought to himself. The encyclopedia of tea leaves he had seen before mentioned quite a few rare and miraculous god-level tea leaves that grew in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races.

If he could finish his mission early this time, it would be the perfect time to go and search for them.

The tea leaves he found himself wouldn't be too expensive, right?

Su Lin immediately made up his mind. He first called the supplier to specially order some emergency high-grade tea leaves. Although these tea leaves were not as good as Gu Jianhao's, they just needed to be a little better than the leaves used for regular milk tea.

Everything else would have to wait until Su Lin returned from the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races.

After solving the high-grade tea leaf problem, Su Lin chatted with the four employees for a while before walking out of the Martial God Milk Tea Shop.

He would come again tomorrow, so he wasn't in a hurry to give instructions for when he was away. He still needed to study that qianxuan space tonight. Once he finished studying it, he could directly apply the qianxuan space to the Martial God Milk Tea Shop.

Once the Martial God Milk Tea Shop was connected to him anytime and anywhere, he wouldn't have to worry about not having milk tea to drink wherever he went.

Su Lin got back into the black business car. As the butler closed the door, they finally drove back to the supreme VIP room in the freshman area.

Before he knew it, it was already night, and the sky had darkened. When Su Lin returned to his luxury villa and was about to open the door, a low voice came from high above.

"You've finally returned, Su Lin."

A familiar figure slowly descended from the sky. Su Lin narrowed his eyes when he saw who it was; he hadn't expected it to be Luo Hengqiang, the president of the War Academy.

"Hello, President!"

Su Lin greeted him solemnly.

He was not familiar with Luo Hengqiang, but Luo Hengqiang was the president of the War Academy, so Su Lin naturally dared not be negligent.

"I heard you came out of the Secret Realm of Swords, so I came immediately."

Luo Hengqiang said indifferently while carefully observing Su Lin.

"You look like you're in good condition? It seems you didn't experience a bitter battle in the Secret Realm of Swords."

"You're even drinking milk tea, and you seem to be in a good mood, so you must have gained quite a bit..."

Su Lin nodded while guessing Luo Hengqiang's intention.

"I also heard that you met the Sword Saint in the secret realm this time?"

"Yes, President, I did indeed meet the Sword Saint."

Luo Hengqiang nodded meaningfully.

"The Sword Saint didn't ask you to be his disciple, did he?"

Luo Hengqiang asked directly. Actually, he was worried that the Sword Saint had seen Su Lin's talent and immediately made him his disciple. If that were the case, even if Su Lin were still at the War Academy, others would only refer to him as Sword Saint's disciple Su Lin, rather than Su Lin of the War Academy.

This would be a huge blow to the War Academy. One had to know that Su Lin had been at the War Academy for less than a month, and he had already made the War Academy famous again at Shenglong University.

Luo Hengqiang did not want Su Lin, this future son of the War Academy, to be snatched away by the Sword Saint just like that.

Su Lin immediately shook his head to deny it.

"This junior's aptitude is not high enough; the Sword Saint did not take me as a disciple."

"That's good, that's good!"

Luo Hengqiang laughed with relief.

However, Su Lin continued, "But, in two days, I might need to ask the academy for leave for a period of time, because I accepted a mission from the Sword Saint and have to go to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races."

"What!?"
