Are Your Cookies Made of Gold or Silver?

"Eh? Little Bai, you're setting up your stall here today of all days. No wonder Xiao Xiao and I didn't see you when we went to the cafeteria earlier with Yuhao."

Not long after Jiang Nannan set up the small stall, Wang Dong pulled Huo Yuhao right over to the front of it, followed closely by Xiao Xiao, who was pouting heavily from feeling left out.

Having drunk Raw Coconut Latte for nearly two months straight, Wang Dong had already become a loyal regular of Luckin Coffee.

If she didn't drink a cup every day, her mouth always felt empty, as though something was missing.

"Oh, it's Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao. Isn't the Freshman Competition happening this year? Why aren't you inside competing? Is it already over?"

Bai Ran didn't have much interest in the early stages of the Freshman Competition.

After all, during the first few days, the freshman teams battling it out were either engaging in one-sided slaughters or pecking at each other like clumsy chickens. There were rarely any exceptionally exciting and evenly matched contests.

Therefore, Bai Ran's plan was to sell coffee during the first few days, and then head to the venue to watch in person once matches like the top thirty-two rolled around.

"Today is the first day of the Freshman Competition. The morning was just to let us familiarize ourselves with the grounds, and the first match won't start until the afternoon."

Wang Dong explained unhurriedly.

"Sister Nannan, why are you here?"

Unlike Wang Dong, Huo Yuhao's focus was mostly placed on Jiang Nannan off to the side.

Seeing Jiang Nannan in the middle of arranging the items, the look Huo Yuhao gave Bai Ran once more held a bit of added complexity.

To be able to make Jiang Nannan, the Outer Academy's number one beauty, willingly work for him—this Little Bai's capabilities were much greater than he had imagined.

"Mm, you must be Yuhao, the one Tang Ya always goes on about."

Because of Tang Ya, Jiang Nannan still retained some impression of Huo Yuhao.

Besides, the grilled fish Huo Yuhao made tasted pretty good, and he had a bit of a reputation in the Outer Academy.

Of course, after tasting the staff meals prepared by Master Ye, Jiang Nannan finally understood just how vast the gap was between professional training and unorthodox methods.

"Wang Dong, Yuhao, why did you two run so fast? Did you see something delicious?"

Behind the two of them, a petite girl ran over panting, looking somewhat aggrieved that those two fellows had left her behind all by herself.

"It's not something delicious, but something delicious to drink."

The corners of Wang Dong's mouth curved up slightly. She suddenly felt a craving to see what kind of little expression Xiao Xiao would make after drinking the bitter Iced Americano.

After taking a sip of the Iced Americano Huo Yuhao had bought for himself last time, Wang Dong had nearly died on the spot.

"Delicious to drink?"

Xiao Xiao began looking over the stall in front of her.

Luckin Coffee—she had never heard of such a thing before.

Could it be a specialty product from the hometown of some Outer Academy senior brother or senior sister?

"Since it's something Classmate Wang Dong thinks is delicious, it must be pretty good. I wonder if Classmate Wang Dong has any recommendations?"

During this period, Xiao Xiao still liked Wang Dong quite a bit. To be exact, there were hardly any girls in Freshman Class One who didn't like Classmate Wang Dong.

Did they understand the gold content of the Outer Academy's number one succubus? Slaying both men and women alike.

She had originally disguised herself as a boy out of fear of being targeted by boys, but she never expected that compared to the boys, the girls would be even more fanatical and terrifying.

Wang Dong: Th-this, who stuffed a love letter into my desk groove?

"I recommend you drink Luckin Iced Americano."

Wang Dong pointed at one of the coffees on the menu and spoke.

This was the signature product among Luckin Coffee, an absolute must-try (not even a dog would drink it).

"Wait, Little Bai, how come your menu got updated?"

Compared to the previously sparse menu, the current menu had added two new coffee varieties: "Luckin Fleshy Peach Coffee" and "Luckin Pomelo C Americano."

And aside from the basic 9.9 Gold Soul Coin cups, there were now also 19.9 Gold Soul Coin large cups and 29.9 extra-large cups.

"Because I recently acquired a batch of decent-quality fruit. Of course, both of these new products are purchase-limited, with a maximum of three cups made per day."

Coffee was indeed supplied in abundance, but those two plant-type soul beasts could probably only produce one or two premium large fruits each day.

"Then give me a cup of Luckin Fleshy Peach Coffee."

Wang Dong intended to try something new.

As good as Luckin Raw Coconut Latte was, drinking the exact same product every day meant there would always come a day of growing tired of it. Trying fresh things was never wrong, just treated as changing up the flavor.

As for why she didn't choose the "Luckin Pomelo C Americano," it was probably because that coffee carried the word "Americano" in its name.

"Wang Dong, didn't you have a stomachache recently? And you're still drinking something ice-cold."

"Mind your own business, Yuhao. This young master is happy as long as I want to be."

The pain was only temporary, but being comfortable was a lifelong affair. Wang Dong was going to let her body see who the real master was.

"Senior Sister, are these cookies you made? How much are they?"

Right as Bai Ran reached into his storage bag to pick a Jasper Creamy Peach.

On the other side, Xiao Xiao had also spotted the few boxes of Butter Cookie just laid out by Jiang Nannan on the stall.

Being a girl, she naturally had a strong fondness for sweet pastries and the like.

Besides, just looking at their appearance, these cookies seemed quite nice, and the taste shouldn't be too bad either.

"These cookies aren't made by me. I'm just helping someone else sell them."

Jiang Nannan indicated that she didn't possess such fine culinary skills.

"As for the price, they're five gold soul coins a piece."

A box of Butter Cookie contained twenty-four pieces in total, and the individual boxes in the Inner Academy Cafeteria sold for around 100 gold soul coins.

As for selling them separately, it was normal for the price to be slightly higher.

Moreover, pastries in the Inner Academy Cafeteria always fell short of demand, and some Inner Academy disciples couldn't necessarily snatch up a single box even if they bid 300 gold soul coins.

"Five gold soul coins a piece! Senior Sister, are your cookies made of gold or silver?"

"They're made by the master chef of the Inner Academy Cafeteria, so the cost is relatively high."

Selling them so expensively made Xiao Xiao too embarrassed to say the words "Can I have a sample?".

Compared to the selling prices of other sweet pastries, five gold soul coins was definitely far too expensive, yet five gold soul coins also happened to fall within Xiao Xiao's acceptable range of spending.

Besides, seeing cookies sold at such a high price, who could possibly resist the curiosity and not buy a piece to try?

At any rate, Xiao Xiao couldn't hold back.

"Senior Sister, I'll take a piece."

Xiao Xiao produced five gold soul coins, preparing to buy one to satisfy her inner thirst for knowledge.

Xiao Xiao: Cookies that cost five gold soul coins a piece—I simply must see what all the fuss is about!

"Junior Sister, your Butter Cookie."

Having gained work experience in the Inner Academy Cafeteria, Jiang Nannan deftly wrapped a piece of Butter Cookie in oil paper and handed it over to the customer.

As for these gold soul coins, Jiang Nannan stored them away separately.

Uncle Ye had already treated her with great consideration; no matter what, she could not accept this money.

If all else failed, she would just secretly stuff them into little brother Bai Ran's pockets.

Bai Ran: Where did these several hundred gold soul coins come from? Could it be pocket money given by Uncle? (He's not that stingy.)

"Little Bai, give me a cup of Luckin Iced Americano."

Unlike Wang Dong, Huo Yuhao was someone attached to old habits.

Furthermore, every time he finished drinking an Iced Americano, it brought him improvements in the aspect of spiritual power.

Only, after finishing this cup of Iced Americano today, Huo Yuhao felt that he could change up his flavor in the future.

After all, having fully absorbed the medicinal efficacy of two Mysterious Water Pills, Huo Yuhao's current Soul Power Level had already reached the seventeenth rank. He didn't believe that the Little Bai before him could raise his Soul Power Level above the seventeenth rank in a mere two months and change.

One had to know that the speed at which Food-type Soul Masters increased their Soul Power Level was universally acknowledged throughout the soul master world as being slow.
