"Xiao Xing performed well, earning a hundred academic credits..."
"Old Xie is no good, basically slacking off, only gets ten academic credits..."
Inside the dormitory, Chen Shu was sitting on the sofa, writing something with a pen, muttering to himself:
"Old Wang is also not bad, fifty academic credits..."
"Ah Liang is the second main force, getting a hundred academic credits..."
"???"
Ah Liang and Wang Jue's eyes widened in unison, staring straight at Chen Shu, a look of bewilderment on their faces.
"Never seen so many academic credits?"
Chen Shu turned to them and said, "Don't worry, as long as you follow me, you won't lack academic credits!"
"Not lack my sister! What the hell kind of distribution plan is this?"
The two of them lunged forward simultaneously, grabbing Chen Shu by the neck.
Chaos erupted in the dormitory again, with clatter and banging sounds, so loud that people in other dorms could hear.
An hour later,
"Can you be a decent human being?!"
All three of them had fallen to the floor. Wang Jue was tightly gripping Chen Shu's neck, while Ah Liang held down Chen Shu's legs.
Although Chen Shu was restrained, the other two were also immobilized, leading to a stalemate.
"I kindly took you to slaughter the异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - alternate dimension), and this is how you thank me?"
"Thank you for what? You Wall Street wolf!"
Ah Liang said, "Believe it or not, I'll crush your head with my scissor lock!"
Chen Shu, not to be outdone, retorted, "Don't push your luck, the two of you. Let me get out my urea bags, and you'll regret it!"
"You're the one who's pushing it!"
Wang Jue and Ah Liang said in unison. What started as a tentative tickle from Chen Shu caused him to instinctively flinch.
"The ferocious bandit is ticklish?"
The two exchanged a glance and immediately knew what to do!
"Damn it, you guys stop fooling around!"
"Chichichi~~"
Chen Shu's body contorted, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
For half an hour, the dormitory was filled with indescribable, bizarre laughter.
"What on earth are they doing in there?"
People passing by Dorm 333 cast peculiar glances, unable to imagine the scene within.
"Alright! I'll be human! I'll be human!"
Chen Shu roared, finally choosing to compromise.
"That's more like it!"
The two released Chen Shu, still looking as if they wanted more.
"Damn it, my face is sore from laughing!"
Chen Shu rubbed his face, righted the overturned sofa, and began to seriously allocate the profits.
In the end, after much discussion, the three of them decided to split the two thousand five hundred academic credits from the medicinal materials equally.
As for the King's flesh and blood, since it was mainly obtained through Chen Shu's efforts, he naturally took the lion's share, smoothly securing the exchange qualifications for five Tier 2 potions.
The remaining thousand academic credits would be divided equally among Ah Liang and the other two.
As for the Silver-grade True Treasures that had yet to be sold, Chen Shu took sixty percent, while Ah Liang and the others each took ten percent.
"Alright, are we good now?"
Chen Shu sighed. None of the four were easy to deal with; being a Wall Street wolf was truly not easy!
"It's acceptable!"
Ah Liang and Wang Jue nodded in satisfaction.
Although Chen Shu took the larger portion, their gains were also significant.
Seven hundred and fifty academic credits plus one hundred million for the Silver-grade True Treasures equated to two hundred million Chinese Yuan.
It wasn't easy for a Black Iron-grade student to earn two hundred million.
This amount was enough for them to fully upgrade their Black Iron-grade potions, and the remaining money could even be used to purchase a Silver-grade skill.
"Chen Shu, why do you need so much money?"
Ah Liang leaned closer and asked, "Why don't we just start a lending platform? Then money will make money!"
Although their gains were substantial, they were nothing compared to Chen Shu's.
The Silver-grade True Treasures alone were worth six hundred million Chinese Yuan, and with the potion exchange qualifications and academic credits, it totaled eight hundred million.
This sum was enough to comprehend eight Silver-grade skills or save up to buy Silver-grade potions.
"Get lost!"
Chen Shu scoffed, "You have no ambition at all!"
"Of course, it's to continue improving my strength, and next time we'll clear out another 异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - alternate dimension). Isn't that more profitable than lending?"
Chen Shu stroked his chin and said, "I plan to use it all to buy the school's special potions!"
The #008 potion enhanced the fire attribute of contracted spirits. Besides this potion, there were also potions to increase defense, size, and various other attributes.
However, they were too expensive, and very few students could afford to exchange for them.
For Chen Shu, the greatest way to improve now was through True Treasures, and they had to be Black Iron-grade.
Of course, Silver-grade True Treasures could also be consumed, but the cost-effectiveness was too low.
However, True Treasures were too scarce for him to consume in large quantities.
The second option was the academy's special potions, which were equivalent to small True Treasures. Although a bit expensive, the improvement was significant.
"Special potions?"
Ah Liang and Wang Jue were a bit bewildered, clearly having never heard of them.
Chen Shu explained to the two of them, saying, "You guys should save up and buy a #003 potion. It can improve all attributes!"
In terms of cost-effectiveness, the #003 potion was definitely the best, a welfare provided by the Huaxia Academy to its students, but unfortunately, it could only be consumed once.
The two nodded, not expecting Chen Shu to have cultivated his contracted spirit to such an extent.
...
In the afternoon,
"Old Wang, Ah Liang, I don't have any weaknesses now, do I?"
Chen Shu walked back and forth in the living room, wearing a green vine armor.
"Holy crap! Are you having another episode?"
The two were startled, once again confused by Chen Shu.
Ah Liang said, "As long as you behave, we won't tickle you!"
"Who's defending against you? Do you really think this ferocious bandit is ticklish? Ridiculous!"
Chen Shu scoffed, "This afternoon is Old Liu's practical combat class. I missed it last semester, so I definitely need some protective measures!"
"..."
The corners of the two men's mouths twitched. Attending class in vine armor, truly something else.
"But I think you might have overlooked a problem!"
"What problem?"
"Fire attacks on vine armor double the damage!"
"???"
Chen Shu was slightly stunned and immediately understood.
"That makes sense. Facing Liu Feng, I need to get a fire-resistant armor!"
"I've already prepared one for you!"
Ah Liang grinned and opened his backpack.
Chen Shu patted his shoulder and said, "Really? You're a true bro!"
Ah Liang turned around, holding a black, exquisite... urn in his hand.
It was even carved...
"Chen Pi, this is fireproof!"
"???"
Chen Shu's mouth twitched and he said, "It's already ashes, of course, it's fireproof!"
