Chapter 65: Chapter 65 Spirit Ascension Powder_l
Translator: 549690339
One day left until the college entrance exam!
In the classroom, the usually stern head teacher, Chai Deyun, began to froth at the mouth, emphasizing to all the students the importance of the college test.
“According to statistics, the success rate of Foundation Establishment among students of the Cinnabarite Red Dawn Institution is 2%. In other words, only two out of a hundred people can successfully establish their foundation.”
“For students of the top ten colleges, the success rate of Foundation Establishment is 20%. Taking our class of 49 people as an example, if all of them are admitted to the top ten universities, then ten people will successfully establish their foundation. Isn’t that an exceptional achievement!”
“And if you are admitted to the Four Great Daoist Academies, that’s even more incredible. Although, the Foundation Establishment success rate for students from these four universities hit a new low last year, even at this new low, it stands at 75%!”
“The benefits of successful Foundation Establishment need not be mentioned by me, right? Not to mention the significant increase in lifespan, you can also apply for a Rank-2 Spirit Vein from the immortal sect, and even access more powerful spells and stronger cultivation techniques in the Immortal Sect’s spell library and the national library.”
“After establishing your foundation, even if you want to become the principal of your alma mater, I guess the principal would be more than happy to give up his position to you.”
While listening to Chai Deyun, Chen Mobai was playing with his phone.
He was trying to snap up the “Spirit Ascension Powder” that the Immortal Sect’s official flagship store had released today. Although he knew in advance that it would be listed at 9:38 in the morning, he had been refreshing and waiting since half past eight.
After all, there are not a few Gold Core cultivators in the Immortal Sect. Although they have long lost interest in Foundation Establishment treasures like this, what if their later generations need them?
However, he was quite lucky. Perhaps due to his sincerity, the Immortal Sect was touched by him waiting for an hour before it listed. The moment the 10,000 shares of “Spirit Ascension Powder” were listed, his quick order placement got him one.
Yay!
If he weren’t in the classroom, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but want to jump for joy.
“What are you so happy about?”
However, his expression caught the attention of the person sitting next to him. Lu Hongsheng, who had completely forgotten about the previous incident, asked softly.
“I was randomly scrolling through the Immortal Sect’s website today and luckily came across a newly listed batch of ‘Spirit Ascension Powder.’ I was lucky enough to snag one.”
Chen Mobai didn’t hide anything, pretentiously showing Lu Hongsheng the unfinalized purchase on his phone screen.
“Your luck is unbelievable.”
Lu Hongsheng’s eyes widened, and he spoke with a hint of sourness.
“You actually got one!?”
By this time, the head teacher on the stage had finished speaking, and it was time for a break. The two girls sitting in front of them who heard their conversation also turned around, looking incredulously at Chen Mobai. Chen Mobai shrugged, letting the students around him look at the order page on his phone.
“Wow!”
Afterwards, everyone looked at Chen Mobai with envious eyes.
One quick-thinking student took out his phone and started trying to snap up the product. It was like a chain reaction, everyone began logging onto the Immortal Sect’s website, trying to grab the newly listed batch of Spirit Ascension Powder.
“Oh no, I was so close, I clearly saw there were three left in stock a moment ago!”
The first girl who reacted hit the desk in annoyance.
“How could I be so stupid!”
The first one who found out, Lu Hongsheng, wanted to bang his head against the wall. If he had tried to grab it right after Chen Mobai told him, maybe he could’ve gotten one too.
Whether he could afford it was another story, plenty of people would help him pay.
The only person in the entire class who sat still, as unmovable as a mountain, was Song Zheng.
He believed he could at least get into one of the top ten colleges. By then, he could get two items for the Foundation Establishment for free the first time. If he had enough Good Deed Points, he could also buy from the school to complete the Foundation Establishment treasures.
So, Song Zheng had absolutely no interest in a trifling single piece of “Spirit Ascension Powder.”
The commotion also attracted the head teacher, who originally wanted to pack up his textbooks and leave. When he found out that Chen Mobai had gotten the “Spirit Ascension Powder,” his face changed a bit. If his first opportunity to establish his foundation in the school hadn’t been used up, he might have wanted to buy it from this student.
However, some quick-witted students had already picked up their mobile phones and quickly spread the news.
After all, there are many teachers at the Qi Cultivation stage in the school.
Ding!
Just before the second class, Chen Mobai suddenly received a text message.
The sender was Chansi.
[I have a Senior Sister who is preparing for Foundation Establishment. If you want to resell your ‘Spirit Ascension Powder’, you might want to consider me.]
Chen Mobai didn’t expect the first person to approach him would be this teacher. He was originally intending to let the whole class know, after all, selling it to a school teacher is better than selling it to someone he doesn’t know outside.
Although the faculty of the Fifth High School of the Immortal Sect is mediocre, these teachers who have been hired to teach them are top choices in terms of character and cultivation. Selling to them means not having to worry about them defaulting on the payment.
If it had been another teacher, Chen Mobai definitely would have held out for a better price.
But since it was Chansi who had contacted him, after a little consideration, he replied with a [Sure].
Luckily, Mr. Ding’s term had already passed, and he didn’t need the Foundation Establishment Treasures. Otherwise, if both these teachers needed to buy Spirit Ascension Powder, he wouldn’t know who to give it to.
After class, head teacher Chai Deyun called Chen Mobai to the office.
He was introducing another teacher who wanted to purchase the “Spirit Ascension Powder,” but Chen Mobai said that he had already promised Chansi. After hearing that, the former teacher left with regret.
“If I’m not mistaken, Mr. Chansi hasn’t undergone Foundation Establishment yet, if he needs it, he can buy the complete Foundation Establishment Treasures from the Cinnabarite Institute.”
As the other teacher left, Chai Deyun suddenly brought up this matter. Chen Mobai hesitated a moment before explaining that Chansi was buying it for a senior sister. Chai Deyun nodded in understanding after hearing this.
Conveniently, Chansi was teaching a neighboring class that day and was also at the school. The two of them agreed to meet after the morning classes ended.
“The Foundation Establishment Treasures are usually marked up about 20% on the market. I’ll transfer you 160,000 Good Deed Points. How does that sound?”
In the office, Chen Mobai heard Chansi’s words and nodded.
Among the three treasures, the demand for “Spirit Ascension Powder” is slightly lower. After all, compared to “Vein Protection Pill” and “Solidifying Qi Liquid,” there are plenty of pills and magic artifacts that could replace it. Even if he handed it to Wu Wan for resale, it might not even fetch this price.
After Chen Mobai changed the delivery information on the order and handed it to Chansi to pay, the latter used his credit card to quickly transfer him 160,000 Good Deed Points.
Looking at the new message about the bank balance on his phone, Chen Mobai’s hands were shaking a little from never having had so many Good Deed Points before.
He laughed at how unsophisticated he was, getting this excited over a mere 160,000 Good Deed Points.
“By the way, the college entrance exam is the day after tomorrow. How are your preparations going?”
All of a sudden, Chansi asked about this. Chen Mobai replied with a self-effacing smile.
“I should have no problem at least participating in the entrance exam for the Four Great Daoist Academies and the top Ten Colleges.”
“Oh, congratulations. But this year’s entrance examination is a bit special, I’m afraid your chances of passing are slim.”
“Huh?”
