Chapter 946: Chapter 306: Su Yue’s Credits
"You really have quite the imagination.
"The Vermilion Extreme Cloud Platform, though wondrous in its uses, has one major weakness: its durability isn’t great. It’s especially fragile. If you use it as a shield, you’ll experience the pain of having a treasure shatter. At that point, you’ll cherish your little life more!"
Sima Lingling sneered.
"Uh, mentor, you’re really humorous, not to mention witty. You’re always teasing me."
Su Yue sat down with an expression of sincere embarrassment.
"Hurry up and get to your business. It’s not easy to come back to West Martial.
"Think of this Vermilion Extreme Cloud Platform as the support department’s way of thanking you. After all, you maintained the Dusk Clock, which is a Sacred Artifact."
Sima Lingling explained.
"I should be doing that, and besides, the Dusk Clock did save my life!"
Su Yue nodded, quickly responding with humility.
"Hmph, that was you being purely reckless!"
Sima Lingling rolled her eyes at Su Yue.
Still have the face to bring it up?
While Lin Dongqi’s body may be important, it’s not for someone like you, a Wuda Student, to risk your life over.
"Um, mentor, I’ll take my leave."
Su Yue rose to his feet.
Though he wished to have a hot meal with his mentor, a glance at the clock showed it was still a few hours away from mealtime. Sitting idle seemed pointless, so he decided to leave.
"Go ahead. I’m going to go dance at the square soon, so I won’t be cooking."
Sima Lingling waved her hand.
Now she only has Ma Xiaoyu as a student and has been diligently working because of being intimidated by Lu Xiliang.
"Okay!"
With a nod, Su Yue left the villa.
"Senior, what’s that on your back..."
Ma Xiaoyu spotted Su Yue and immediately ran over to ask.
"This is..."
Su Yue began.
"It’s the Bagua, used for exorcising, right? For subduing zombies, right?
"The mentor is biased. She knows shibo raises zombies, so she gave you the Bagua for protection. What about me? The zombies will bite me to death."
Ma Xiaoyu looked utterly despondent.
"Junior, this is all about diligence. Once you break through to the third rank, the mentor might bestow upon you a Peach Wood Sword.
"By then, you’ll be the one scaring the zombies instead!"
Su Yue concocted an explanation.
There’s no helping it. The matter of the Vermilion Extreme Cloud Platform can’t be explained clearly either.
And it really can’t fight zombies; Su Yue would have to run himself. He even feared Lu Xiliang returning.
"Senior, wait for me. I will definitely break through to the third rank, definitely!"
Ma Xiaoyu was on the verge of tears.
My whole life is handed over now.
...
After returning to his dorm to drop off the Vermilion Extreme Cloud Platform, Su Yue planned to visit the nursing home.
He wondered if Da She Wan and the others were there.
No wonder it’s the most expensive dormitory, even if Su Yue wasn’t living in it, a dedicated person would come to clean it. When Su Yue returned, it was spotless.
Mu Cheng seemed very busy, though it wasn’t clear with what.
Su Yue shook his head.
Seize power in West Martial?
Am I that bored?
With this time, I’d rather spar with the Mo Kai in the Wet Realms.
Compared to the power of West Martial, Su Yue preferred his days of arrogant swagger in the Yangxiang Race, fully playing the rich scoundrel role.
Shaking his head, Su Yue left the West Martial dormitory area.
Actually, not just in Sima Lingling’s class, even in other classes, with Su Yue’s current abilities, a mentor no longer has any educational value.
His situation is just like Bai Xiaolong’s: he is already a free man of West Martial.
Right now, Su Yue is the brightest rising star in all of Wuda, and West Martial still needs to capitalize on his fame.
Just the thought of Su Yue only being in his freshman year was enough to make Zhao Jiangtao smile even in his sleep.
Who’s to say? Su Yue still has three to four years of celebrity effect to bring to West Martial; it’s truly a treasure trove.
I’ve really struck gold.
Passing by Bai Xiaolong’s dormitory, Su Yue took a glance and, as expected, no one was there.
Bai Xiaolong and Meng Yang were off somewhere carousing again.
Du Jing’s Book had been away from West Martial for a long time.
He’s most likely at the Research Institute.
Nowadays, West Martial students behave rather reservedly around Su Yue, even more than they did with Mu Cheng.
No alternative.
Su Yue defeated someone as brutal as Li Duozhi, something Mu Cheng couldn’t do.
Even Bai Xiaolong couldn’t achieve that.
Su Yue shook his head, merely offering a friendly smile to his classmates. When a brave freshman wanted a photo together, Su Yue readily agreed, posing casually with them.
We’re all classmates here, no need to be so reserved around me.
That being said, Su Yue’s university life has been rather bland. He’s either being envied, worshiped, or jealously regarded.
And then, there’s the earnest love he’s gained.
Ah, life... so lonely.
...
Reaching the nursing home.
The gate was locked. After some inquiry, it turned out that the elders had gone off on a trip with a travel group.
Su Yue sighed, having come for nothing. He then handed the fruits he had brought to the nearby neighbors.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Buzz buzz buzz!
That’s when Su Yue’s phone rang.
It was a number from the Military Department.
"Hello, Su Yue, the Military Department’s reward has been disbursed. Please verify your account. If there’s any issue, contact the Military Department. Thank you."
With that, the call ended abruptly.
The money’s here?
Su Yue’s heart skipped a beat.
Opening his personal page.
Sure enough, seeing the string of digits in his account balance, Su Yue felt a surge of emotion.
1.2 million credits.
It’s exhilarating.
Combined with the previous reserve of over 200,000 credits, Su Yue’s savings were nearing 1.5 billion once more.
Now, Su Yue felt at ease.
There’s no choice.
Watching the balance deplete sharply with the possibility of having to manage daily life with loans was making Su Yue extremely anxious.
Now, I’m back at full health, Su Yue thought.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Buzz buzz buzz!
The phone rang again. It was a video call from Yang Lezhi.
"Hey, brother-in-law, the Military Department’s reward came in. I got 600,000 credits. How about you? Got more than me?"
Su Yue opened the phone.
Through the screen, Su Yue could sense the joy on Yang Lezhi’s face.
