After listening to Taihua Tianji and Zhang Youde, Su Yuan, Chen Nuoyi, and many other students present fell into thought.

As long as they could rank in the top 100 city-wide and get into a prestigious school, they would at least become a Foundation Establishment expert in the future, possibly even a Golden Core!

This was actually a very worthwhile deal.

And if your talent was truly good enough, you might be able to keep up with the Special Class's learning pace without spending money or spending very little.

But in other words, if you could keep up with the learning pace without spending money, wouldn't you soar if you spent money to buy all sorts of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to aid your cultivation?

What's more, if you ranked in the top ten in the city, the school would refund all expenses incurred in the Special Class.

If you had confidence in yourself, let alone spending ten million, you'd make a profit no matter how much you spent!

Su Yuan thought about the various abilities he had gained since cheating, from the Abyss Dharma Vein to various Devilish Arts.

These System rewards alone had already greatly improved his grades. In the more than 200 days before the college entrance examination, who knew how many more System rewards he would receive.

A million per month, totaling ten million over ten months. If he really wanted to save, he would most likely be able to save it.

But if he missed the school's event where all tuition fees would be refunded if he ranked in the top ten in the city, Su Yuan felt it would be a great pity.

His dream was to get into the top ten schools, and ranking in the top ten in the city for the college entrance examination was already his established goal.

For this goal, wasn't it great to spend money on top of his cheating abilities?

Not to mention that becoming the top scorer in the college entrance examination would give him a tenfold rebate. This sounded as devilish as a tenfold rebate system in a novel!

It would be unreasonable not to compete!

But the problem was, how was he going to earn that ten million?

Damn it, should a high school student be worrying about earning a million a month?

If he could earn a million just by working, then we wouldn't need to work, and it would be much easier to give lectures on success studies, right?

Understand the applause!

But after pondering for a long time, Su Yuan still decided to set a goal for himself!

He looked up and solemnly looked at Taihua Tianji:

"Teacher Taihua, I will first try my best to save up one million."

Ten million was too far away. He would focus on earning the first month's tuition first!

Hearing this incredibly firm tone, Taihua Tianji was slightly taken aback.

He smiled and said:

"Alright, you save the money first. As for whether to spend it on cultivation resources, you can decide after the official classes begin and you've experienced my lessons."

Su Yuan quickly thanked him.

Taihua Tianji nodded and said no more. He stood up and, accompanied by the school leaders, went to tour the school with his daughter.

The students from the eight classes of the third year also returned to their classrooms to study under the organization of their respective teachers.

Su Yuan silently returned to his class's formation and walked with the group towards the classroom.

Yue Lin, the class advisor leading them, came to Su Yuan's side and said helplessly:

"I was planning to tell you all about this after the Martial Arts Competition."

"Su Yuan, some things cannot be forced. If the pressure is too great, you might as well take a step back. You don't have to chase the top ten ranking in the city."

Su Yuan shook his head:

"Teacher Yue, no matter what, I have to get into the Special Class. The reason I've persevered as an orphan until now is to get into the top ten schools."

"Did you know, working part-time can also be very profitable."

"Selling roasted goose at the cafeteria, I can earn over a thousand a day. Delivering takeout, I can earn six to seven hundred a day. I also found a well-paying part-time job at a milk tea shop. Calculating it this way, I earn three to four thousand a day."

"Adding my savings over the years, if I can take on a few more part-time jobs in the future, it's possible to raise one million... I think."

Su Yuan's voice was calm, but it drew the attention of the entire class.

After listening, Yue Lin ultimately said nothing more, only gently patting Su Yuan's shoulder.

However, despite his determination, Su Yuan inevitably felt a sense of melancholy.

Earning money was like learning math; if you didn't know it, you didn't know it.

From the first day he started working, Su Yuan naturally had some savings, but it was only barely one hundred thousand yuan.

After the monthly exam at the end of the month, the Special Class would officially begin. Even if he worked and spent money simultaneously, he would only have one and a half months left to save one million.

Where would the remaining 900,000 yuan gap come from? He couldn't possibly take out predatory loans.

He felt like the plot had suddenly become heavy.

Time flew by until noon. Su Yuan put aside his chaotic thoughts and rushed to the cafeteria with Chen Nuoyi to prepare to sell roasted goose.

Because they had sold a full two hundred portions of Dragon Scale Roasted Goose yesterday, Su Yuan only prepared one roasted goose last night, fearing that it wouldn't sell today.

By the time he had everything ready, quite a few students had already appeared in the cafeteria.

A familiar figure rushed to the serving window where Su Yuan was:

"Section Chief Su, give me an order of your signature roasted goose."

The person who arrived was Wu Xingqi. The young girl was as energetic as ever, looking at Su Yuan with a smile.

"Coming right up."

Su Yuan smiled at the girl. With a swing of the Soul Summoning Bell, the roasted goose's knife and cleaver moved on their own, directly slicing a plate of meat. The portion was clearly larger than a normal serving.

Wu Xingqi swiped her meal card, took the roasted goose, and sniffed it. A look of intoxication appeared on her beautiful face.

She cleared her throat and said:

"Section Chief Su, I want to pre-order ten portions of Dragon Scale Roasted Goose to take home to my family. Please prepare them for me in advance."

Su Yuan nodded, about to agree, when his heart suddenly stirred.

He looked at the black-skinned, spicy girl who had already picked up a greasy piece of goose meat and put it in her mouth, enjoying it with a seemingly carefree air. His heart couldn't help but warm.

Su Yuan wasn't stupid. Wu Xingqi suddenly pre-ordering so many portions of roasted goose meant she likely knew he was short on money and wanted to help him earn more.

However, in the end, Su Yuan didn't point it out. He smiled slightly and said:

"Don't worry, I'll definitely leave the ten fattiest portions of roasted goose for you."

After Wu Xingqi left with her roasted goose, a long line soon formed in front of the stall.

Among those lining up to buy roasted goose, there were an unusually large number of students from Class 2, Grade 3. Many of them directly pre-ordered roasted goose for the next few days.

Yue Lin, Li Ziquan, Zhuge Tie, and several other teachers from Class 2 also pre-ordered a significant amount of roasted goose from Su Yuan.

Su Yuan's anxious mood gradually calmed down because of this.

His teachers and classmates were all doing their best to help him, so why should he be dejected?

He just needed to work his hardest to earn money, live up to himself, and not let down those who were helping him.

He still had the System as a backup. Without relying on expensive cultivation resources, it wasn't impossible for him to get into the Top Ten.

After the busy period ended, Su Yuan tallied the lunch sales. All one hundred portions of roasted goose had naturally been sold.

In addition, he had received a full two hundred pre-orders. Tonight, he would likely have to roast three or four Dragon Scale Roasted Geese in one go to meet demand.

"Class Monitor, we earned over four thousand yuan today! What a harvest!"

Su Yuan smiled as he looked at the girl beside him, but he froze.

This was because Chen Nuoyi's beautiful face didn't show any smile. Instead, she was frowning, deep in thought.

"Class Monitor, what are you thinking about?"

Sensing Su Yuan's gaze, Chen Nuoyi snapped back to attention and said softly:

"Su Yuan, I have an idea."

"If I'm willing to return to the Chen Family, I'll have a lot of money at my disposal, and then I can lend you ten million yuan."

"This way, you won't have to worry about money again before the college entrance examination."
