In the morning, Dao Heart Class.

The Dao Heart Class teacher was a young man with squinted eyes who looked under thirty. He was dressed a bit sloppily, and his name was ordinary, Wang Liang.

"All students, today we will have a short Dao Heart quiz."

As soon as they heard about a pop quiz, the students' faces immediately fell. Su Yuan, however, secretly felt a bit of anticipation. He really wanted to know what his current standing was in terms of Dao Heart.

"Please unlock your phones and hand them over."

Teacher Wang suddenly added.

Students: "???"

Was this pop quiz that strict? They even had to confiscate phones before the test!

But the next second, Teacher Wang explained:

"Don't worry, I have no interest in confiscating your phones. It's just that this quiz is a bit special, and your phones can be used as testing tools."

The students finally relaxed a little and handed over their phones one by one. Soon, the podium was covered with phones, their screens lit up.

Then, Teacher Wang drew out a Treasure Sword, held it horizontally in one hand, and pointed at the phones on the podium with the other. The phones immediately flew up like butterflies, with their screens facing up, landing steadily on the sword.

More than twenty phones lay on the three-foot-long sword, completely covering its surface.

"Today's Dao Heart test is very simple. Each person will come up and hold this sword, and I will simultaneously open the splash screen ads on all these phones."

"If your heart is calm enough, without causing the sword to fluctuate even slightly, and without letting any splash screen ad jump, you will pass this Dao Heart test with full marks."

Teacher Wang squinted his eyes and smiled.

"Hiss—"

A collective gasp immediately filled the room.

As expected, squinty-eyed people are all monsters! They actually used such a vicious method to test them!

Those were splash screen ads! Even the slightest tremor could directly lead to the ad software! And now, this test required them to stabilize more than twenty splash screen ads at once. This test was excessively difficult!

"Su Yuan, this test will start with you."

Suddenly, Teacher Wang looked at Su Yuan in the crowd.

"Me?"

Su Yuan was slightly stunned. Although he found it a bit strange, it was exactly what he wanted. He nodded and walked onto the podium.

Teacher Wang's eyes opened a bit wider as he looked at the unremarkable young man before him. He was also wondering why Yue Lin had specifically told him to pay more attention to Su Yuan in Dao Heart Class.

Was there something special about Su Yuan?

Thinking this, Teacher Wang handed the Treasure Sword to Su Yuan and said, "I'll start when you're ready."

Su Yuan nodded, took a deep breath, and focused all his attention on the Treasure Sword in his hand, with nothing else in his mind.

Teacher Wang extended his hand, and more than twenty threads of Spiritual Power materialized in his palm. At the same time, he precisely touched the surface of more than twenty phones on the sword.

In the next instant, the screen of each phone was filled with a splash screen ad.

At this moment, any slight tremor the phone felt would immediately lead into the advertising app! It was extremely perilous!

However, facing such a perilous scene, Su Yuan and the sword in his hand remained completely still, as if time had stopped.

Everyone in the class held their breath, watching the scene nervously until the splash screen ads ended.

Did he succeed?

Even now, the students couldn't believe what they were seeing.

Teacher Wang revealed a smile: "Student Su Yuan, you get one hundred points!"

At this moment, the entire class erupted in thunderous cheers!

"Holy crap, no way to criticize this! He's as steady as an old dog!"

"When did Su Yuan's Dao Heart become so firm? Did he go to a monastery?"

Su Yuan smiled, returned the Treasure Sword to Teacher Wang, and strode off the podium.

On the podium, Teacher Wang's gaze followed Su Yuan's retreating back to his seat with a deep look.

But soon, his gaze shifted to the other students, letting them take turns to come up for the test.

The results were naturally dismal, with splash screen ads jumping one after another, causing the students to wail.

At noon, Su Yuan rushed to the cafeteria and took all the leftover food from the students. After most students had left, he dragged the leftovers to a corner and activated his Demonic Skill: Spirit Finger.

Another Blue Pill appeared in Su Yuan's hand, its effects exactly the same as the previous one.

"Good heavens, the cafeteria food really has strong medicine in it, huh? It consistently yields a Blue Pill every time."

Su Yuan grumbled inwardly.

But regardless, having another stable farming spot was a good thing for him.

He skillfully swallowed the Blue Pill, then after temporarily storing the leftovers he had drained himself in the cafeteria, Chen Nuoyi happened to walk through the cafeteria doors.

The two exchanged glances and, without a word, bought a large basin of food and sat down to eat together.

"Su Yuan, what exactly is this money-making job you mentioned? It's almost afternoon, when are we going to make money?"

Chen Nuoyi asked somewhat impatiently.

Su Yuan gave a mysterious smile:

"Don't rush, let's eat first. You'll know after we're done."

"If all goes well, we'll not only make a lot of money, but we can also solve our food problem completely."

After hearing this, Chen Nuoyi silently sped up her eating.

After they finished eating, with over ten minutes left before afternoon classes, Su Yuan led Chen Nuoyi directly to the entrance of the cafeteria kitchen and asked a middle-aged chef with a kind expression, surnamed Li:

"Chef Li, is our cafeteria still hiring? We're both impoverished students and want to work in our school's cafeteria after school."

Upon hearing this, Chen Nuoyi's pretty face instantly showed a hint of nervousness.

Working in the school cafeteria? She... she couldn't cook!

Chef Li didn't notice the unusual expression on Chen Nuoyi's face and said with a chuckle:

"The cafeteria's business has been declining recently, so we are indeed planning to recruit more chefs. We'd be even more welcoming if students from our school were willing to work."

"However, young man, you'll have to pass a taste test to be hired. How are your cooking skills?"

Su Yuan confidently replied:

"Chef Li, please rest assured. I have a secret family technique. Can I come for a taste test after school? As for the ingredients, please prepare some live geese and ducks, etc. The higher the grade of the ingredients, the better, and they must be alive."

Chef Li pondered for a moment and nodded:

"The kitchen already has a few live geese. If you want to try, you can come this afternoon."

Although he said that, Chef Li was somewhat dismissive in his heart.

The live geese in the kitchen were all Spirit Beasts at Qi Cultivation Level 6, or even Qi Cultivation Level 7. Most students couldn't even defeat them, let alone stew them?

He figured the young man in front of him would naturally give up after getting beaten by the geese.

And if he truly had the ability, there was no harm in letting him work in the cafeteria.

"Then it's settled!"

Su Yuan smiled and waved goodbye to Chef Li, walking out of the cafeteria humming a tune.

Chen Nuoyi, following behind him, was already sweating profusely:

"Coach, the money-making job you talked about is being a cafeteria chef? But I don't know how to do it at all! I can even burn roasted meat."

Su Yuan chuckled and said:

"Class Monitor, becoming a chef relies on more than just skill; it also requires the power to slay Demons and vanquish Devils!"

"I have the skills, and you happen to have the strength. Together, we are a qualified chef!"
