"Join an academy?"

Hearing this, Su Mu could not help muttering,

"At my age, I seem to be only six years old, with just one Soul Ring, and you want me to join one of the designated academies for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament?"

The royal academy of the Heaven Dou Empire, Zheng Tian Academy?

Wasn't that backdoor a little too wide open? Better forget it.

"No. I'm still young and not interested in going to school. I just want to set up my stall more often and make some money."

"But the things you mentioned are just small favors. I can help you with them."

"Consider it a favor you owe me. When I need Her Highness's help someday, you can step in then. How does that sound?"

Su Mu said.

If he could gain the princess of a nation as backing and strength merely by relying on some simple knowledge, it was quite a worthwhile deal.

After all, Bei Bei was gone now. If he wanted to do anything in Heaven Dou City, having Princess Vina secretly helping him would definitely make things much easier.

At least he would not be rejected before he even found the right department.

Su Mu thought.

Princess Vina, however, was stunned.

Zheng Tian Academy had the strongest faculty and the most abundant resources of any academy established by the Heaven Dou Empire, yet someone was actually being invited to join and did not want to. He even wanted to trade the opportunity for a favor from her.

One had to know that whether her favor could even get someone into Zheng Tian Academy was questionable.

This time, she had only obtained the condition after pleading with her father.

Yet the other party did not cherish it, which made Princess Vina feel somewhat upset.

She had worked hard to act cute before her father and used outstanding techniques as an excuse to secure this admission opportunity, only for this brat to refuse it and ask merely for one chance to have her help him.

Princess Vina did not know what Su Mu was thinking, but her purpose this time had already been achieved.

"Fine, but only within my abilities. There's nothing I can do about matters beyond them."

"If you want to use this opportunity to obtain titles and promotions, though, I'm afraid I probably can't do that."

Princess Vina said.

Su Mu patted his chest as well.

"Since that's the case, let's set the time for tomorrow morning."

"I'll wait for you here early tomorrow morning, and I'll take you there then."

"I'll gather some military physicians at one of the Heaven Dou Empire's military supply depots."

"You can teach them then. What do you think?"

Princess Vina said.

Su Mu nodded as well.

As far as timing went, any day worked for him. After all, he ran a stall; he was not working for the system.

He could set up his stall whenever he wanted.

So he nodded.

"Fine. In that case, we'll be leaving first."

"I'll have people waiting for you here tomorrow, and I'll come personally as well."

Princess Vina said, rising to leave.

The hundred-odd soldiers she had brought also stood up one after another, put their helmets back on, and left.

Only after the troops had departed did the surrounding diners dare gather around again.

Elsewhere, Cyrene and the other person, having confirmed that no Titled Douluo was monitoring the area, came out and joined the work.

Thanks to the six hundred Gold Soul Coins Princess Vina had provided that morning, the day's turnover alone reached one thousand.

It easily broke their previous total sales record.

It seemed hiring food streamers was indeed a shortcut.

Although they were usually packed to capacity, today's business had reached a peak, with nearly every diner eating a great deal.

Their turnover was almost half again as much as usual.

Su Mu counted the Gold Soul Coins.

If this money-making speed increased a little more, he could consider drawing Prismatic Hextech on a long-term basis.

Earning four hundred a day meant four thousand in ten days.

He could draw one Prismatic Hextech in half a month, two in a month, and twenty in a year.

Perhaps after a year, he could reach the level of a Titled Douluo through the power of Hextech.

The more Su Mu thought about it, the more he felt that his current money-making speed needed to become even faster.

Wasn't this the strategy for becoming invincible early on?

As long as he earned enough and earned fast enough, he could draw Hextech until his hands went numb.

He had gotten to play a cracked version of Douluo—666. Now he was playing the real Douluo.

Su Mu counted the Gold Soul Coins.

Then the system's notification sounded.

"Detected that the host has improved the efficiency of earning Gold Soul Coins. To prevent an excessive accumulation of Gold Soul Coins, would you like to purchase the Wallace Hextech System Level-One License Card?" "Unlock more system functions and privileges." "Note: After purchasing the Wallace Hextech System Level-One License Card, you will receive one permanent free inventory slot, one spectator slot, and unlock the permanent talent recruitment event and the heavenly treasures prize pool!"

The system notification drew Su Mu's attention back to the system panel.

Looking at the new pop-up windows, this was different from the plain Hextech system panel from before.

A spectator slot, a free storage slot, and a talent recruitment event that could recruit more employees!

He could even draw heavenly treasures.

Not only did it have the Hextech selection function, it had also added a lottery system.

Seeing this, Su Mu looked at the item below concerning the Hextech Level-One License Card.

Its price was ten thousand Gold Soul Coins.

Ten thousand Gold Soul Coins could unlock Level-One licensing for Hextech draws.

Well, he only had one thousand Gold Soul Coins in hand right now.

"Fuck, you pretty little system!"

"I just earned one thousand, and now you want me to save up ten thousand?"

"One Prismatic Hextech draw only costs a little over five thousand. Ten thousand Gold Soul Coins would be enough for two Prismatic Hextech draws."

"You think I'd spend that money on buying your system license?"

"Who knows whether this thing is another pit you dug? I'd rather die than jump into it!"

Su Mu said.

As evening drew near and it was almost time to pack up the stall,

he walked silently along the small path.

That Hextech lottery pool he had seen today was making him itch.

The talent lottery pool could recruit new shop assistants. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed worthwhile.

So what if he spent a little money on a license?

The Hextech for recruiting employees might not be easy to get either.

Fine. I'll throw ten thousand at it this time and see what happens. If it doesn't work, System, I'll tear you apart.

Early the next morning, Su Mu arrived at this spot bright and early.

As he approached, he discovered that three luxurious carriages were parked where he usually set up his stall.

More than a hundred guards stood protectively around them, all clad in shining silver armor.

Inside the foremost carriage, Princess Vina leisurely drank tea behind the curtains.

The armor on her body was gone, replaced by a pale yellow dress.

A shining silver crown rested atop her head.

The morning sunlight fell across her face, casting it in a golden glow and making her seem especially serene and beautiful.
