Reward Missions
Over the past few days, Ye Zichen's classes had tormented him to the brink of collapse. When Xue Mo said she could save him from his current predicament, his sleepy eyes lit up.
"I want to!"
Ye Zichen was so excited that he slapped his thighs and stood up. The lecturer, who was lecturing on the origins of divine power, frowned.
"Is there a problem with that student over there?"
"No, no."
Ye Zichen smiled sheepishly and sat back down. The lecturer didn't pay much attention to his previous topic, but Xue Mo couldn't help but facepalm.
"Idiot."
Ye Zichen shrunk his neck and said nothing for a while. When he sensed that the lecturer wasn't looking in his direction, he finally spoke carefully.
"Senior Sister Xue, how are you going to save me?"
"When this class is over, come see me at our headquarters." With that, Xue Mo bowed, gestured at Ye Zichen, then quietly slipped out of the lecture hall.
Ye Zichen managed to endure until the lecturer left. In truth, this lecture had been somewhat useful to him. Of course, it wasn't very useful.
As soon as the lecturer left, Ye Zichen hurried over to Anti-Upheaval's headquarters.
Under normal circumstances, as long as it wasn't during class time, the members of the club would stay in the base camp. Societies were like clans in the outside world. Society members were all family members, either busy with the society's affairs or cultivating in seclusion.
Due to Anti-Upheaval's glorious history, they were the top student society of the Five Great Clans. Their headquarters could house over a million members.
When Ye Zichen arrived, quite a few of the society members were there. When they saw him, they nodded at him.
Although Ye Zichen had just arrived, everyone in the Skyspan Empire knew of the Excavator School.
"Senior Sister Xue, I'm here."
Ye Zichen arrived at Xue Mo's lotus pond. Chen Guangfa was there as well, talking to Xue Mo. When they saw Ye Zichen, they stopped talking. Xue Mo handed him a jade slip and told him to leave.
"You got here pretty quickly," said Ye Zichen with a smile. Ye Zichen smiled at Ye Zichen. Ye Zichen watched Chen Guangfa leave, then grinned. "That's for sure. Senior Sister Xue told me to come, so how could I not hurry?"
"Good attitude." Xue Mo nodded in satisfaction.
Ye Zichen really didn't want to take those boring classes anymore. Although he didn't like seeing Xue Mo like this, for the sake of his own happiness, he had no choice but to smile obsequiously.
"I'm fine, Senior Sister Xue, I wonder what brilliant plan you have to help me get out of this predicament."
"Hey, wasn't Platoon Leader Ye quite arrogant before?" Xue Mo pursed her lips and teased.
"Elder sister, you are my elder sister. In the past, I was young and ignorant. Hurry up, if you have any tricks up your sleeve, just say it. If you can make me not attend class and still not deduct points, you'll be my goddess! "
"So you can't do anything about it?"
"Yes, yes, yes, you have always been my goddess!"
When Xue Mo heard that, she pursed her lips and chuckled. She stopped teasing Ye Zichen and tossed him a jade slip.
"Look."
Ye Zichen caught the slip and probed it with his divine sense.
The contents of the slip seemed to be a bounty mission. The general gist of the mission was that a large number of people had died in the vicinity of Barren Sands City. None of the surrounding vassal villages had escaped the calamity. However, the city's supervisor had failed to investigate the cause of death, so he asked Skyspan Academy to send someone to investigate.
Ye Zichen withdrew his divine sense, fiddled with the slip for a while, then tossed it back to Xue Mo.
"A bounty mission?"
"That's right." Xue Mo accepted the slip and nodded. "The academy just received a bounty letter. According to the academy's judgment, only the top five student societies can accept this mission. It just so happens that Anti-Upheaval hasn't accepted a bounty mission in a while, so I took it upon myself to accept it. "
"So that's how it is." Ye Zichen nodded in understanding. "Bounty missions give good points and resources. If Anti-Upheaval wants to return to the public eye, we really do need to accept a few high-level missions. But …. What does that have to do with me not attending class? "
"Bounty missions require teams of ten, so I'm planning to give you a spot. When the time comes, I'll report it to the academy. You won't have to attend class anymore, and your points won't be deducted, either. "
Go on a bounty mission?
Just now, he'd seen that the bounty mission required sky supremes. Since the academy had decided that they needed sky supremes, he, an earth supremes ….
"Who's going for this bounty mission?"
"Luo Zi and Li Hu are definitely going. Guangfa and I will go as well. I've already found the other five, so it's up to you now." Xue Mo crossed her arms.
As if sensing Ye Zichen's hesitation, she continued.
"This bounty mission rewards ten-thousand-year black jade. A few days ago, didn't you ask me where I could buy ten-thousand-year black jade? The material is right in front of you. If you go …. I can promise you first dibs on the jade once the mission is over. "
"I have to pay for it? Isn't that free?" Ye Zichen arched his brows.
"....." Xue Mo couldn't help but roll her eyes. "What are you thinking? If it were just the two of us, I could give it to you for free, but there are other people involved. Giving you first dibs on the jade is already quite generous. Are you going or not? Just tell me. "
Ten-thousand-year black jade was a necessary material for condensing a Devil Dharma Body. He needed at least a hundred and fifty kilograms of it.
Even if he opened the second floor of the Yao-Sealing Pagoda, he'd still have far less than that. That was why Ye Zichen hadn't condensed his dharma body yet.
During his time at Skyspan Academy, Ye Zichen had asked quite a few people about ten-thousand-year black jade.
One kilogram was worth a million aureus, but there was no supply!
The academy had quite a bit of it, but he could only buy it with points. Condensing a Devil Dharma Body was urgent, but Ye Zichen didn't have the time or energy to grind for points.
Recently, there'd been no news of ten-thousand-year black jade at the Skyspan Trading Company's auctions ….
This mission might be the fastest way to obtain the Ten Thousand Year Black Jade.
"Have you thought it through or not? If you don't want to go, I'll have to contact the others," said Xue Mo with a frown.
"Are you sure I can get first dibs on ten-thousand-year black jade?"
"I can!"
Xue Mo's certainty dispelled all of Ye Zichen's misgivings. He steeled his resolve and gnashed his teeth.
"Alright, then it's settled. Count me in on this bounty mission."
