Chapter 16: Tang 3's Hatred, Tang Wulin Enters the Scene!
Ning Rongrong stared at the dark, round bun inside the bracelet for a long while.
"Are the blackened steamed buns all given to the students?"
She muttered something to herself and reached out to take out the black steamed bun.
The steamed bun wasn't big, smaller than her fist, and it was shiny black. Its smooth surface made it look more like a black stone than a type of pasta.
Ning Rongrong held it under her nose and sniffed it. There was no foul smell, or even any special smell, only a faint fishy smell.
Ning Rongrong frowned, and was about to throw it back into the bracelet when she suddenly noticed there was another note inside.
She pulled out the note and unfolded it.
【New Student Welcome Package】
1,000 Gold Soul Coins
Two or three sets of specially made school uniforms
3. A black steamed bun made from a deep-sea spirit beast
Note: Deep-sea Soul Beast Black Buns are made from the essence of ten-thousand-year-old deep-sea soul beasts. They are very beneficial to the cultivation of qi and blood. It is recommended to eat them in portions, one small piece per day. It is not advisable to eat them all at once, otherwise excessive qi and blood may damage the meridians.
Ning Rongrong was stunned after reading the note.
One thousand gold soul coins?
She quickly probed her soul power into the bracelet, found the heavy bag, opened it, and saw that the golden soul coins were neatly arranged inside.
"One thousand gold soul coins..."
Ning Rongrong gasped.
For the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a thousand gold soul coins are indeed nothing; the school's daily revenue is more than that.
But for ordinary people, a thousand gold soul coins is already incredibly powerful.
What's more, the registration fee for this academy is only one copper soul coin.
A registration fee of one copper soul coin, plus an entrance gift package of one thousand gold soul coins?
Ning Rongrong felt that her understanding of money had been overturned by this college.
"This academy...it's not even in it for the money, is it?"
She murmured to herself.
"Tuition for one copper soul coin, a gift package for one thousand gold soul coins... this is clearly a loss-making scheme."
She suddenly remembered her earlier thought and wondered if the academy sold soul tools.
Now it seems there's no need to ask anymore.
Ning Rongrong carefully put away the money pouch, her gaze returning to the black steamed bun, which was very beneficial for cultivating qi and blood.
Ning Rongrong looked at the dark object, her brows furrowing into a deep frown.
Do we really want to eat this?
Its appearance was really terrible; it was dark and dry.
Ning Rongrong has always eaten delicacies since she was a child. The dishes made by the chefs of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are perfect in color, aroma and taste. When has she ever eaten anything with such an appearance?
Ning Rongrong hesitated for a long time before finally gritting her teeth.
"Fine, I'll cut off a small piece and try it. If it doesn't taste good, I'll throw it away."
She took out a small knife, placed the black steamed bun on the table, and cut off a small piece about the size of a fingernail.
The black steamed bun was much harder than it looked, and when the knife cut into it, it made a crisp "crack" sound, like cutting into a piece of dry, hard wood.
Ning Rongrong picked up the small piece, looked at it, then closed her eyes and put it in her mouth.
The moment she tasted it, she thought it would be awful.
Surprisingly, it wasn't bitter or astringent, and it was even quite tasty.
Then, a surge of heat rushed up from my stomach.
The heat came quickly and fiercely, like a ball of fire exploding inside the body, spreading along the meridians to the limbs and bones.
Ning Rongrong's face instantly turned bright red, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
"It's so high!"
She felt as if her blood was boiling, her heart was pounding rapidly, and heat was emanating from every pore of her body.
The energy and blood were so abundant that it even caused a slight swelling and pain in her meridians.
Ning Rongrong dared not delay and quickly circulated her soul power, guiding the flow of qi and blood within her body.
These black steamed buns are good for you; they're good for your health!
......
Meanwhile, across the street at the dilapidated Shrek Academy, a completely different scene unfolded.
Tang San sat on a hard wooden bed, his face terribly gloomy.
He and Xiao Wu paid twenty gold soul coins and successfully entered Shrek Academy. There wasn't any particularly difficult test to join, and there was another test that was supposedly given to them by Zhao Wuji, the one who had been beaten up by Wu Changkong.
Now that Zhao Wuji is covered in injuries, no one is going to test them anymore, so they are skipped.
The college was just as dilapidated inside as it was outside, with weeds growing rampant in the courtyard and a few crooked, tiled houses standing there.
Tang San sat on the bed, his hands resting on his knees, his head bowed, and he remained silent.
His mind replayed everything that had happened that day, especially the humiliation he had suffered at that academy. It was unbelievable that he had been eliminated.
And... the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, is it real or fake?
If it's true, Tang San really desperately wants to get it. This is a treasure! Those guys might not understand the importance of this kind of treasure land, because Tang San saw the immortal herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and each one was extremely precious.
Tang San's fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
"That academy... I'll make them regret it."
But he quickly calmed down because he remembered Wu Changkong.
That man with long, lake-blue hair was a seventh-ring Soul Saint, someone who could easily overpower Zhao Wuji at the same level.
With that kind of strength, he is far from being a match for them now.
"Don't act impulsively."
Tang San took a deep breath, forcing himself to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Now is not the time. I'll wait until I'm strong enough..."
He raised his head, looked at the flickering oil lamp, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Tang San then thought of Dai Mubai, the blond-haired man he had met after entering the academy. Yesterday, he had just arrived in Soto City and happened to run into Dai Mubai when he went to book a room.
That guy was planning to mess around with a pair of twins, he booked a room, and even though he came later, I had a falling out with him.
Then he used his Blue Silver Grass to teach the other party a lesson. Tang San was initially under some pressure when he saw that Dai Mubai was a three-ring Soul Master, but he didn't expect him to be a paper tiger. He used Blue Silver Entanglement to make the guy suffer a lot.
It was obvious that this guy had just been injured and his wounds hadn't healed yet. Tang San had to praise this guy for being really amazing. After suffering so many injuries, he still dared to look for the twins. He really didn't care about his life.
Tang San was not in a good mood after learning that Dai Mubai was in the same academy as him, because Dai Mubai was an idiot, and being in the same academy as an idiot would really damage his reputation.
However... as long as he can become stronger, that's all that matters. As long as he becomes stronger, Tang San doesn't care who he's with. And then... first, he'll take revenge on that other blond-haired guy, Le Zhengyu!
