233: Li Yueying's "Spirit Summoning Card"

“Teacher, welcome back.”

In Li Yueying’s office, Jiang Yuan looked at Li Yueying with a happy smile.

As for the man beside him, who was three meters tall and had fangs and pointed horns, he was ignored by Jiang Yuan.

“The mission is complete, so of course I should come back.”

Li Yueying looked at Jiang Yuan, smiling mischievously: “You’ve caused quite a stir at school recently.”

“Hehehe, it’s for life, you know.”

Jiang Yuan scratched his head, smiling innocently.

However, Jiang Yuan’s words made Li Yueying a bit confused: “For life? You still lack the rewards from the leaderboard’s first place?”

“Of course!”

Jiang Yuan said righteously, but Li Yueying looked at Jiang Yuan suspiciously: “You little rascal, don’t lie to me.”

“I heard that you robbed and killed everyone from the other nine races in the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield and took all their spoils.”

“I…”

Jiang Yuan was about to argue, but Li Yueying interrupted him directly: “Even if not all, you took about two-thirds of the items opened from the secret treasure orbs that erupted from the dongtian secret treasure, didn’t you?”

“Not to mention the items in the Backpack Cards of those other races, it seems there weren't just those few from the First-Sequence Race, but also many races from the second and third districts that you completely slaughtered, right?”

“Uh, yes.”

Jiang Yuan scratched his head a little awkwardly: “Teacher, you know, we Card Creators consume a lot of resources; it’s quite expensive, so, well.”

“I understand.”

Li Yueying nodded, but was still a bit puzzled: “But what kind of card are you trying to create? Have all those resources been consumed?”

“I want to create a Purple Quality Cultivation Card!”

Jiang Yuan said with conviction, but he didn’t mention that he was going to create a fourth Summoning Card, which would be a Summoning Card capable of processing various heavenly material and earthly treasure to enhance their effects.

“Eh?”

Li Yueying was stunned for a moment. She was about to say that Jiang Yuan couldn’t possibly succeed, as even the lowest quality Cultivation Card was a red quality card.

But thinking about the cards Jiang Yuan had created before, and then considering the unique Summoning Card, it seemed not impossible for Jiang Yuan to achieve it, could it?

“If that’s the case, then consuming so many resources makes sense.” Li Yueying nodded helplessly.

Although a Purple Quality Cultivation Card, if successfully created, would definitely sell out instantly.

But so many resources being consumed, just thinking about it made her heart ache.

“How’s the progress?”

“Still in the initial stage.”

Jiang Yuan spoke weakly, almost making Li Yueying spit out a mouthful of blood.

“So you burned so many resources, and you’re telling me it’s just a project that’s just started?”

Li Yueying suddenly stood up, her eyes wide with anger: “Buddy! Card Creators consume resources, but not like this!”

“No, buddy, calm down. Haven’t I already found a way to make money?” Jiang Yuan hastily waved his hands, trying to appease Li Yueying.

“With that many resources, how the hell do you expect me to calm down?!”

Li Yueying completely disregarded her image at this point: “Also, for those Mythical Series cards you’ve been selling recently, quickly add an insurance layer for me!”

“Ah, what insurance?”

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment. Do cards have insurance too?

“Of course!”

Li Yueying looked at Jiang Yuan strangely: “Didn’t the teacher explain it? I remember this is something from third year…”

As Li Yueying spoke, her voice trailed off.

Alright, she just remembered that her good disciple seemed to have skipped from second year directly to fourth year.

“Never mind, never mind, I’ll teach you.”

Li Yueying shook her head unhappily: “Starting tomorrow, whenever you have time, come to me. I’ll teach you how to add insurance before you sell those Mythical Series cards of yours.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Yuan nodded, then cautiously asked: “Um, what is the insurance for?”

“Insurance, as the name suggests, is to ensure that this card cannot be used by people of other races.”

“Not only do we Human Race do this, but people of other races do it too.”

“However, compared to them, our Human Race is more adept at research; seeing a card’s effect, we can generally replicate that card.”

“Hmm, it can also be considered one of our racial talents, or rather, an ability that comes with our racial talent.”

“And the effects of your cards are all very good. The key is that the card quality is lower compared to other cards with similar effects, which is a huge advantage.”

“That’s why an insurance layer is needed, insurance to prevent other races from using the cards.”

“After I returned, I also saw that your output is quite large. There are bound to be some scoundrels among the Human Race, traitors who will sell these cards to other races for profit.”

“Ah!”

Jiang Yuan was startled, then furious: “Then won’t they earn more than me?!”

“Of course they will.”

Li Yueying nodded, and Jiang Yuan became even angrier: “Is it easy for me to earn this hard-earned money?! Damned human traitors!”

“Teacher, quickly teach me! I’ll put insurance on my cards right now!”

“Teacher, is it not ‘buddy’ anymore?” Li Yueying had also calmed down at this point and teased Jiang Yuan.

“Hey buddy, look at what you’re saying, weren’t you the one who called me ‘buddy’ first?”

Jiang Yuan chuckled, but Li Yueying just rolled her eyes: “What’s your current strength?”

“Almost at Late Stage.”

Jiang Yuan smiled. With him and Jiang Yuan No. 2 cultivating diligently, plus the enhancement of several Star Gathering Arrays, Jiang Yuan’s cultivation speed was very fast.

Now, the little stars representing his Jiang Lou Mid Stage strength were almost filled with his Star Power.

Once filled, he would be able to break through to Late Stage.

“Still not enough.”

Li Yueying shook her head, but Jiang Yuan was stunned.

Sister, you’ve only been gone for a little over a month, right?

I’ve improved by a minor realm!

Seeing Jiang Yuan’s confused gaze, Li Yueying spoke very seriously.

“The Four School Joint Examination is about to begin.”

Jiang Yuan was stunned: “Four School Joint Examination, is my current strength not enough?”

“Of course not.”

Li Yueying shook her head slightly: “During the Four School Joint Examination, besides the sixth-year students having a separate examination hall, fourth-year and fifth-year students share a hall, and second-year and third-year students share a hall. If you’re still at Fourth Realm, Jiang Lou strength, your opponents will be Fifth Realm, Great Beam strength.”

The Fourth Realm and Fifth Realm are in one examination hall, and the Sixth Realm is in a separate examination hall.

There is still a possibility for the Fourth Realm to challenge a higher realm, the Fifth Realm. A Fourth Realm, Late Stage might be able to challenge a Fifth Realm, Da Liang Initial Stage.

But a Fifth Realm, Late Stage, absolutely cannot challenge a Sixth Realm, Real Shen (Early Stage) by skipping a realm.

The body reshaping in the Sixth Realm provides too great a boost to strength.

Although there’s only one realm difference between the Sixth Realm and Fifth Realm, it can truly be described as a world of difference.

Li Yueying’s expression was serious: “The rewards for the Four School Joint Examination are very generous. I don’t expect you to get first place, but at least getting into the top fifty would be fine.”

Li Yueying’s words were not just idle talk.

Each school sends a lot of people to the Four School Joint Examination.

Just in Zhongyuan Academy, where Jiang Yuan is, there are over three thousand fourth-year students.

Four academies, twelve thousand.

And there are fifth-year students too.

There are over 2800 fifth-year students in Zhongyuan Academy, so across the four academies, it’s about ten thousand people.

Over twenty thousand people, and she wants Jiang Yuan to enter the top fifty.

This is indeed not an easy task to accomplish.

After all, Jiang Yuan is currently only at Fourth Realm, Jiang Lou.

However, the approximately ten thousand fifth-year students who will participate in the Four School Joint Examination in the same hall as them are all at Fifth Realm, Great Beam strength.

With his Card Spirits Nezha, Shi Ji, and Zhao Gongming, Jiang Yuan couldn’t guarantee that he could defeat a Fifth Realm, Da Liang (Mid Stage) opponent by skipping a major realm.

Jiang Yuan could achieve challenging opponents of a higher minor realm.

But a major realm is too difficult.

A level, a chasm, is not just a saying.

And Li Yueying naturally knew Jiang Yuan’s capabilities.

She also understood that as long as Jiang Yuan could reach Fifth Realm, Da Liang Initial Stage, he might have the ability to challenge a Late Stage by skipping a realm.

This is Jiang Yuan!

This is her student!

Invincible among peers!

She had that confidence!

But if Jiang Yuan’s strength didn’t improve to Fifth Realm, Great Beam, then the invincible-among-peers buff would be gone, and he would only be able to choose to challenge a higher realm.

But skipping a major realm…

Even with abnormal combat power, it’s very difficult.

After all, this is the Four School Joint Examination, and all participating students are from the four top academies.

At the very least, they are all like Mu Qianshan, with their combat power at the genius level.

However, looking at Mu Qianshan’s recent challenge videos, his combat power should have already risen to the monster level.

But in Li Yueying’s opinion, Mu Qianshan would reach his peak there.

Above that, the fiend level and abnormal level cannot be achieved by relying on cards.

Of course, Jiang Yuan is an exception.

Are his Card Spirits all at the abnormal level?

She just didn’t know how this guy managed to get Card Spirits with such abnormal combat power.

Looking at her own Card Spirit…

Li Yueying looked at the “Card Spirit” beside her, a hint of disdain in her eyes.

This “Card Spirit” was her mission target this time.

To create this “Card Spirit,” she specifically went to the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, paid a huge price, and ambushed and killed a Demon Race member of Tenth Realm Longevity Star (Early Stage) strength.

Then she spent a great deal of money to hire someone to cast the 【Memory Reappearance】 card, allowing the entire life of that Demon Race member to be presented before her.

Finally, by understanding the life of this Demon Race member, she created such a “Summoning Card.”

However, since this was a real person, rather than calling this card a Summoning Card, it would be more accurate to call it a Character Card.

Although this card passed the World’s Will’s judgment and the card type was displayed as Summoning Card.

But in Li Yueying’s opinion, this was a pseudo-Summoning Card.

Li Yueying didn’t care too much, after all, her original intention was just to prove whether her idea was correct.

If it was correct, she could then proceed to create a true Summoning Card.

“Okay, I understand. I’ll do my best.”

Jiang Yuan nodded. He planned to go back and inquire about the rewards of the Four School Joint Examination.

After all, the Cultivation Card he wanted to create was already nearing completion.

According to the current progress, it should only require replacing one of the cards to successfully create a Purple Quality Cultivation Card.

To improve his realm, the rewards must be very generous.

He still had over a year before he would be completely unable to stand up.

Although cultivation becomes slower and slower in the later stages, if the rewards of the Four School Joint Examination were truly excellent, then temporarily giving up on the Purple Quality Cultivation Card might not be impossible.

Anyway, the Four School Joint Examination wouldn’t take too long.

So the question now was whether to “sharpen the axe before chopping wood.”

After all, Cultivation Cards can also increase cultivation speed.

The decision would depend on tomorrow.

Tomorrow…

At the latest, in three days, once that card arrived, the success of the Purple Quality Cultivation Card would be decided.

Then they would see if they could use the Cultivation Card for cultivation.

Or, give up on cultivation, and he and Jiang Yuan No. 2 would continue to research the Cultivation Card together.

“Oh, there’s one more thing.”

Just as Jiang Yuan turned around, Li Yueying’s voice rang out again.

Whenever he heard this familiar voice, images of Jackie Chan and Uncle would involuntarily appear in Jiang Yuan’s mind.

“What?”

“Our affiliated race, the Second-Sequence Race, Yamato Race, will be coming to challenge us in the next two days. The higher-ups believe that the Yamato Race is thinking of betraying their master, so you might need to step in and teach them a lesson.”

“Among their visiting delegation this time, there’s a guy named Fujita Kojiro who has some strength. If he challenges, remember to leave him with a deep impression.”

Li Yueying’s lips curled into a sneer: “A mere affiliated race, daring to betray their master and seek independence? Who gave them the courage.”

After Li Yueying finished speaking, information about this race appeared in Jiang Yuan’s mind.

This race was a Second-Sequence Race. Jiang Yuan seemed to have killed people from this race back in the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield.

However, he didn’t pay attention to people from the Second and Third-Sequence Races, so he didn’t know which races were affiliated with the Human Race.

But as soon as Li Yueying mentioned it, Jiang Yuan thought of this race.

This race was very similar to a race near his country in his previous life.

Not only the name, but even their character was very similar.

Normally, they would bow down and beg, but once the main body weakened, they would pounce and take a bite.

This was what Li Yueying had just referred to as betraying their master.

However, the Yamato Race in this world never had such an opportunity, as the Human Race had always been strong.

But incidents like these, coming to challenge but actually testing the Human Race’s strength, had happened many times over the years.

However, the Human Race in this world had always been strong. Each time they were thoroughly beaten, they would behave for a period.

The reason why the Human Race didn't eliminate this race was partly because this race was not very weak.

Another reason was that the world where the Yamato Race resided was too small.

The effort and reward were not proportional; eliminating them was not worth it at all.

With the Yamato Race around, they could even be used as cannon fodder to resist the Demon Race.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely leave them with a profound memory.”

After understanding, a sunny smile appeared on Jiang Yuan’s face.
