Tang Ya and Ju Zi Make an Exchange

Freshman Dormitory.

Room 109's door was opened.

Chu Mo pushed the door open and walked in, seeing Tang Ya sitting cross-legged on the bed in her nightgown, practicing. He closed the door behind him.

Behind her as she cultivated, Blue Silver Grass emerged. Unlike others, the patterns on this Blue Silver Grass were blood-red, truly giving off the vibe of an Evil Spirit Master.

The Blue Silver Grass coiled around her, adding a touch of wicked charm to Tang Ya's maturing face, making her heart-stoppingly attractive.

It even made Chu Mo's face flush slightly as he recalled how she had used the Blue Silver Grass to entangle them together the previous night.

He never imagined the Blue Silver Grass could be used in such a way!

Tang Ya on the bed finished her refinement, slowly withdrawing her spirit power to end her cultivation. She opened her eyes, and upon seeing Chu Mo staring at her, she was instantly delighted.

"Oh my, Chu Mo, why are you back so early?"

Chu Mo raised a hand to stop Tang Ya from rushing over to hug him.

"Sigh, don't mention it. We just finished running, and they told us to come back and change our clothes."

"Hehe, that makes sense. They just love making people run; it serves no purpose other than making everyone sweat."

Tang Ya pouted. She didn't force the hug, instead sitting on the bed with her arms crossed, looking annoyed.

Watching her cute expression, Chu Mo smiled and suppressed the urge to pat her head. He tried to sense her spirit power, but he couldn't feel it at all.

"What level are you at now?"

Tang Ya couldn't suppress the smile on her face; she couldn't help it, her level was rising too fast.

"I've finished refining. I was at level 12 before, but now I'm at level 44. I was planning to go hunt for a spirit ring this afternoon to raise my level quickly so I can better help you later."

She patted her chest, feeling very happy that she wasn't just a simple vase and could actually be of use to Chu Mo.

"Hehe, that won't be necessary. You haven't checked the Chat Group today, have you? Take a look, there's a surprise."

Hearing this, Chu Mo paused for a moment before laughing. He hadn't spoken to her all day and assumed she was just being quiet; he hadn't expected she really hadn't checked it at all.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have talked about going out to hunt for a spirit ring. The group contained Spirit Ring Orbs, which were essentially God-given Spirit Rings condensed from faith.

"I really haven't looked. I wanted to finish refining and get stronger first. What surprise?"

Tang Ya summoned the screen in the dormitory. The pinned message was a system notification, which she clicked on like an announcement.

Her casual expression instantly widened, her pupils trembling violently.

"Is... is this for real?"

Chu Mo didn't waste any more time. He hadn't forgotten the reason he came back, and he didn't want to be late because of this. He headed toward the bathroom, ignoring Tang Ya's shock.

Tang Ya looked at the rewards in her Chat Group inventory, feeling stunned. She hadn't expected 5 levels of spirit power; she was almost at level 50 already. It was too fast.

This Chat Group was just too overbearing!

She looked toward the bathroom and parted her lips.

No wonder Chu Mo called it a cheat; this was a real cheat, even stronger than becoming an Evil Spirit Master!

Plus, there were upgrade rewards like immortal herbs, and his Demon Puppet was also something he had drawn—it was just too strong.

Looking at the rewards currently in her inventory, Tang Ya felt there were some she couldn't use and wanted to trade for something useful.

Wangchuan Autumn Water Dew.

That's right, what she wanted to trade for was the immortal herb, because her Purple Demon Eye needed it to upgrade. It would definitely be more useful to her than to anyone else.

Even Huo Yu'er, who also practiced the Purple Demon Eye, couldn't compare to her. After all, Huo Yu'er had just started practicing; how could it compare to the results of her own lifelong training?

[Ya: @Revenge Girl, are you online? Did you use that immortal herb of yours yet?]

[Revenge Girl: Not yet, why?]

[Ya: I want to trade a Spirit Ring Orb for the Wangchuan Autumn Water Dew you have.]

Spirit Tool Laboratory.

Ju Zi looked at the text with some confusion. What was this Spirit Ring Orb?

She hadn't used it yet, mostly because she was hesitant. After all, based on the explanation Tang Ya had given her the other day, she knew this thing wouldn't do anything to change her innate talent.

Eating it would be useless and a waste; it might even lead to a mental backlash. She was currently debating whether to trade it for resources, as she needed mineral materials to refine spirit tools.

[Revenge Girl: What is a Spirit Ring Orb?]

[Ya: Hmm, it's similar to a God-given Spirit Ring. After using it, you obtain the highest possible spirit ring based on your endurance, and it will be perfectly compatible with your Martial Soul.]

[Ice Frog is Stronger than Poison Frog: It's that good?]

[Revenge Girl: Uh, but I have no use for it.]

Seeing this, Ju Zi's mouth twitched.

Listening to this, it sounded like a 100,000-year spirit ring perfectly compatible with one's Martial Soul—it would definitely be useful in the late game.

But she didn't have a "late game." Even if she could withstand the backlash of a 100,000-year spirit ring, it was unlikely she would ever reach the Spirit Douluo realm. Otherwise, she wouldn't have poured all her focus into military strategy and spirit tool research.

The other party wasn't interested, but Meng Hongchen, who was watching the chat from the side, certainly was, and she hurried over.

"Senior Ju Zi, let's trade. I'll buy that Immortal Herb of yours; I want this Spirit Ring Orb."

Ju Zi looked at the other party's excited expression, thought it over briefly, and finally nodded.

Building a good relationship with others wasn't a mistake. With thirty-two people and no real social interaction, the Chat Group actually managed to bring them closer, which wasn't bad at all.

Besides, if she were to take the Immortal Herb outside to sell, there was no guarantee she wouldn't run into someone trying to kill her for the treasure.

"Alright."

[Revenge Girl: Once the trade is done, just give it to Meng. I'll send the Immortal Herb to you via Red Packet.]

["Revenge Girl sends a Red Packet to Tang Ya."]

["Tang Ya sends a Red Packet to Ice Frog is Stronger than Poison Frog."]

The entire process took less than ten minutes.

Inside room 109 of the Freshman Dormitory, Tang Ya's hands trembled slightly as she took out the Immortal Herb.

She was even more excited now than she had been when she first saw the level 98 Demon Puppet.

The Immortal Herb in her hand looked exactly like the picture; a few crystal-clear dewdrops were condensed on the three leaves atop its vine.

Swish~

The bathroom door slid open. Chu Mo, having finished a quick wash and changed his clothes, walked out. Seeing Tang Ya on the bed, he looked puzzled.

"Why are you holding a blade of grass?"

Tang Ya, who had just been preparing to refine the medicine, froze for a moment before her little face puffed up instantly.

"What do you mean? This is an Immortal Herb! I traded for it from Ju Zi."

Reminded of this, Chu Mo finally remembered, his expression turning slightly awkward.

"Oh, right, that... Autumn Water Dew, isn't it?"

"Yeah, I just checked. I never expected that becoming an administrator would actually grant access to such good things."

As she said this, Tang Ya kept her gaze fixed tenderly on Chu Mo. Chu Mo felt a bit shy under her stare and was just about to speak when she suddenly changed the subject.

"You aren't planning on finding many, many more administrators, are you?"

"This..."

Chu Mo looked into her eyes, momentarily at a loss for words. How was he supposed to answer?

Tang Ya suddenly withdrew her gaze and lowered her eyes.

"I can tell from the name of the Chat Group that I'm definitely not the only one. Since I've already taken this step, it means I've accepted it."

She placed her hands over her chest, feeling her own heartbeat. She raised her eyes, which were filled with deep affection.

"But you can't go looking for those disreputable women! Otherwise... otherwise I'll bite you to death."
