139: If you don’t make money when you have it, you’re a bastard!

The moment the task was completed, the students cheered.

"It's done! I finally cleared a dungeon!"

"Haha, now I won't be eliminated."

"Thanks, Senior Xia Qi, truly, thank you."

"Thank you, Senior is truly amazing, so amazing!"

"Finally passed, no more exams, boo hoo..."

For a time, these academic stragglers were moved to tears, looking at Xia Qi's returning figure as if he were their benefactor.

Xia Qi watched their excited reactions.

He could actually understand it somewhat.

Those who could enter Shengjing University were almost never mediocre.

Except for scions of influential families, other students stood out from various local college entrance examinations, becoming objects of envy.

But after entering Shengjing, they found themselves to be just ordinary students.

After finally getting into the academy, they still couldn't compare to those scions.

Those people received excellent education and resource favoritism from a young age, so of course they would be much more powerful than these ordinary people who only awakened at eighteen.

Coupled with the academy's survival of the fittest system, those on the verge of elimination were actually ordinary students who had earned their way in.

Speaking of which, this was also fate.

It was truly too difficult for ordinary people to rise to prominence overnight.

Even in Shengjing, the nation's top university, there was still a considerable gap between ordinary students and scions.

This was the result of different social classes.

There was no crime in being ordinary, but it was just a pity that one was not born well; most of the time, one had no choice.

The task ended, and everyone left the dungeon one after another.

As for the equipment and Materials dropped in the dungeon, those were none of their business.

They only needed to complete the task.

This time, because Xia Qi couldn't exert his full strength, it took him a full seven and a half hours to clear the dungeon.

Even so, it was still very fast.

A group of people appeared in the Home of Dungeons.

The news of their successful completion of the task spread like wildfire.

There were many other students like them who were at the bottom of various academies.

Basically, they were all ordinary students who had earned their way in.

Soon, a long line formed in the Home of Dungeons, stretching from the Fallen Land dungeon entrance all the way outside the Home of Dungeons.

Looking at this dragon-like queue, Xia Qi was also stunned.

He didn't expect there to be so many people.

There were at least a hundred people waiting in line here.

"Are you trying to tire me to death?"

Xia Qi smiled bitterly and helplessly.

With so many people, leading them all would bring in at least tens of thousands of points.

But he was tired and sleepy now; two dungeon runs took over thirteen hours, and he only ate some dry rations in the dungeon midway.

His stamina was at rock bottom, and his spirit was also very fatigued.

Just as he was about to refuse, Luo Zisheng walked over with a smile.

"You're out?"

"Yes, I want to go back and rest for a bit."

Xia Qi nodded; it was indeed quite tiring.

"Speaking of which, I have a special potion here, do you want to try it?"

Saying that, Luo Zisheng took out a bottle of potion and handed it to Xia Qi.

"Life Potion: Can restore fatigue and stamina, effects last for 24 hours."

Upon seeing the effect, Xia Qi's eyes widened; this item had the same effect as the life fruit in the desert.

The key was that the life fruit couldn't be taken out of the dungeon, so how did Luo Zisheng get it?

As if seeing through Xia Qi's thoughts, Luo Zisheng smiled and said, "Don't ask where it came from, just ask if you want it."

"I heard about you leading people through dungeons. While the school hasn't reacted yet, quickly earn a wave, otherwise, there won't be any more to earn later."

With Luo Zisheng's reminder, Xia Qi also understood.

His current team-leading model was too much of a bug; it was actually not conducive to the students' growth.

Once the higher-ups reacted, they would definitely prohibit it.

Luo Zisheng had seen this point, which was why she brought him supplies so he could earn points first.

"That makes sense. How many bottles do you have?"

"I still have four or five bottles. Do you want them?"

Luo Zisheng smiled like a blooming flower, but for some reason, Xia Qi always felt she had some ulterior motive.

"How many points?"

Xia Qi asked tentatively.

"I don't want your points, I just want you to let me move into your place."

"???" Xia Qi.

The next second, Xia Qi was stunned.

Good gracious, she was treating his dorm like a communal dorm, wasn't she?

One by one, they all wanted to move in.

But on second thought, three people were already living there, so one more didn't seem impossible.

Wait, why did this thought feel so familiar?

Xia Qi shook his head, looking at the Life Potion in his hand.

This item was definitely valuable, and he shouldn't let Luo Zisheng help him for free.

Moreover, he had a good impression of Luo Zisheng, so moving in wasn't impossible.

"How about it, Junior Xia Qi, have you considered it?"

"Deal!"

This was a deal involving tens of thousands of points; Xia Qi had no reason to refuse.

"However, I must warn you, you can only sleep in the study now."

A single dorm only had four rooms, one on each floor.

However, there was also a study on the second floor, which could be considered a room after tidying up.

"It's okay, I'm not as delicate as you think."

Luo Zisheng had a look of a successful scheme, flicked her ponytail at Xia Qi, and left.

She was probably going to pack her things and move.

Xia Qi couldn't care about that much anymore.

Let them sleep wherever they wanted; if it really didn't work out, he had earned so many points anyway, renting another single dorm wasn't impossible.

Hehe...

Drinking a bottle of Life Potion, Xia Qi felt as comfortable as if he had taken a hot bath.

Instantly, his mental fatigue and physical strength were replenished; it felt even better than sleeping for a whole night.

He ate some food to alleviate his hunger.

After resting for about ten minutes, Xia Qi once again brought a group of people into the dungeon.

Even though thirty-nine people had left, the line not only didn't shorten but seemed to be getting longer.

Many who had already cleared the dungeon also started calling their friends, urging them to come quickly and do the task.

After all, everyone knew full well that this kind of shortcut wouldn't last long.

They had to seize the opportunity while Senior Xia Qi could still lead the team and quickly clear the dungeon.

Meanwhile, at West Wind Academy.

Sikong sat at a stone table in the center of the academy, sipping tea, his fingers constantly tapping the tabletop.

"Lightning element talent, no wonder he's so arrogant."

"But what if he has lightning talent? Who isn't an elemental talent?"

"Looking at him, his talent doesn't seem to be fully developed yet, and he hasn't even undergone his second Awakening."

"He's already so ostentatious now; he's in for a rude Awakening."

Sikong spoke calmly, but the flames of hatred were burning fiercely in his eyes.

This Xia Qi was too disrespectful.

Not only did he make him lose face, but he also caused West Wind Academy's reputation to plummet.

If it weren't for Xia Qi, the honor of the new record should have belonged to West Wind Academy.

Even the fallen sword should have been theirs.

In his opinion, Xia Qi was snatching food from a tiger's mouth.

After a long while, Sikong instructed the person beside him, "Go find Li Pengfei from War God Academy and tell him it's about Xia Qi."
