World Seed

Zhang Zhi suddenly remembered Class Advisor Liu reminding him that he had taken some people's Trial Tower slots, and that someone had been asking around about him.

Could that person asking about him be the so-called Club President?

He immediately shook his head. Definitely not. Someone who could become a club president certainly wouldn't lack Trial Tower slots. But that person should have some connection with the Club President.

At that thought, Zhang Zhi turned and glanced at Building 5 in the distance. The address that person had given him that morning was in that building.

After looking at a certain floor, Zhang Zhi turned and walked toward the nearby stalls.

The simplest way to deal with that person was to leave him hanging. As for the relevant information, if he really had no other choice, he could find the school's Black Market himself. He refused to believe he couldn't buy that information.

In any case, he was planning to lie low and slowly develop for a while. With the school's reward for Daoist Hongjun and the benefits of being a Special Enrollment Student, he wouldn't lack development resources in the short term. There was no need to rush!

As for that so-called Club President, he had to find a way to teach him a lesson, lest the man keep targeting him. As for trying to speak ill of him in front of Li Qianjun, that definitely wouldn't do. There was a distinction between close and distant relations, and as an outsider, he'd better say less about the man's family.

While pondering how to fight back, he kept walking. After making a round of the area, he discovered that the cards here were noticeably cheaper than those in his hometown.

However, many cards only accepted card-for-card exchanges or Academic Credits. They didn't accept Gold Yuan Vouchers.

He had only taken a few steps toward the distant Trading Area when he heard a somewhat familiar voice beside him mutter, "Bootlicker."

He froze for a moment. He seemed to have heard that word recently. He turned to look and saw three girls there.

They all looked somewhat familiar.

However, he wasn't sure whether he had met these girls before.

Well, the reason? Every man understood. When they saw a pretty girl, their first reaction was definitely, This girl looks a little familiar.

At that moment, one of the girls saw Zhang Zhi looking over, frowned, and snapped fiercely, "What are you looking at, bootlicker?"

"Hm?" Hearing that word again, Zhang Zhi immediately remembered where he had heard it.

It was on the day he had registered for admission.

But at the time, all his attention had been focused on speaking with those adults, and he hadn't paid much attention to the little brats beside him!

He truly hadn't noticed that there had been such a pretty girl beside him.

However, given Zhang Zhi's current mindset, he didn't have many thoughts about fourteen- or fifteen-year-old brats, even though this body of his was actually only fourteen.

After withdrawing his gaze, he couldn't be bothered to deal with the girl and continued wandering around the Trading Area.

After arriving at the Activity Center that morning, he had remembered that he'd overlooked something the previous day: he hadn't asked Li Qianjun whether he could help him exchange for some military strategy or military formation cards from the school.

He had forgotten yesterday, so today he could only search around himself and see whether he could find any related cards.

Fortunately, he had seen several White Military Formation Cards available for exchange at the academy's exchange office. If he really couldn't find anything else, he could wait until his Academic Credits from the reward arrived and exchange for those military formation cards.

The academy definitely had books on military strategy and the like. However, he was currently only a new student. As a Special Enrollment Student, his Student ID permissions were insufficient, and he wasn't allowed to view higher-level cards.

He made a quick round of the White Card area. The various cards there were dazzling, but he didn't find any military strategy or military formation cards.

Frowning, he swept his gaze across the entire square and thought, It's really inconvenient before the information age. Even finding something I want requires searching stall by stall.

A thought even surfaced in his mind. Once there were enough people in his Small World, should he try developing technology inside it?

Then he laughed self-mockingly and cast that unrealistic thought aside.

To reach the level of technology that existed on Earth in his previous life, he would need at least hundreds of millions of humans with a certain level of education.

For a Small World to contain hundreds of millions of humans, it would at least have to be a Lesser Thousand World. Never mind how many resources it would take to develop a Small World to that point—even if one followed any path to advance into a Small World, there would already be multiple beings on the level of gods within it.

His idea was far too unrealistic.

The Main World, with its huge population of ordinary people, was instead the best place to develop technology.

But in the Main World, who wasn't devoted to becoming a Realm Lord? How many people were willing to spend their time on those useless "skills"?

He gave a quiet, self-mocking laugh and continued wandering through the Trading Area according to the cards' grades and categories. When he passed a stall, the corner of his eye caught a row of words on a wooden board beside it: "World Seed."

Thinking he had seen wrong, he turned to look at the wooden board again. After confirming it, he realized he hadn't been mistaken. One of the lines on the board indeed displayed the four large words "World Seed."

Curious, he walked up to the stall.

The stall was fairly large. At a glance, it was clearly the sort of shop that bought high and sold low while maintaining a long-term presence at the market.

He asked the stall owner, "May I take a look at this World Seed?"

The gorgeous woman inside the stall, dressed in feathered robes, bowed to Zhang Zhi and said, "Great Master of the World, please wait a moment. The World Seed is with our Daoist Master. She'll be here immediately."

Zhang Zhi blinked at those words. Only then did he realize that the person before him was actually a Retainer of some Master of the World!

He had just been wondering whether a stall owner who set up shop here long-term didn't need to attend classes or something. It hadn't occurred to him that they directly summoned a projection of their Small World's Retainer to receive customers.

Just as he was considering whether he should also find a few people from his Small World to help him search for cards, the stall's owner hurried over:

After sizing up Zhang Zhi, she asked, "Student, are you interested in this World Seed?"

Zhang Zhi smiled, showing his teeth. "Hello, Senior Sister. I'm sorry. I'm rather inexperienced, so I was a little presumptuous in asking about it."

The Senior Sister laughed heartily. "Haha, it's nothing. Everyone has been through this."

Looking at this Senior Sister, who was nearly two meters tall, he gave an awkward laugh and asked, "May I ask, Senior Sister, does this World Seed have any other uses besides Opening a Small World?"

Seeing that Zhang Zhi really seemed interested in the World Seed, the Senior Sister said, "You don't understand, do you, student?"

"It's true that a World Seed can only be used to open a Small World, but who told you that one person can only open one Small World?"

Zhang Zhi froze when he heard this. "I really have been ignorant. Does what you're saying mean that everyone can open two Small Worlds?"
