Financial Troubles, Mubai's Lavish Gesture
... While cultivating the "Stargazing Spirit Refinement Method," a portion of his spiritual energy was allocated to cultivate Soul Power using the "White Tiger Meditation Method."
Even if one can allocate enough spiritual energy, this portion of spiritual energy is too active to be used for Soul Power cultivation.
Dai Mubai knew that this was still due to his lack of familiarity and proficiency in cultivating mental power.
Undeterred, he continued to practice the Stargazing Meditation Method alone, ensuring that he could allocate a sufficient amount of mental energy while also precisely controlling this active mental energy.
An afternoon flew by.
Just as the aroma of food wafted from the direction of the manor's kitchen, it reached the window.
Dai Mubai finally succeeded.
He was finally able to cultivate both Soul Power and spiritual power simultaneously, and could simultaneously practice the "White Tiger Meditation Method" and the "Stargazing Spirit Concentration Method".
"Phew~"
"Finally, I succeeded." They tried several more times.
It was discovered that although it was not possible to perform two techniques simultaneously at the beginning, one could only practice one technique first, and only after completing the circulation of qi and entering a state of readiness could one practice the other technique.
But whether you cultivate the "White Tiger Meditation Method" first or the "Stargazing Spirit Refinement Method" first...
Regardless of the order in which the two cultivation techniques are practiced, the goal of simultaneously operating both techniques and cultivating both Soul Power and spiritual power is achieved.
After regulating his breathing and finishing his practice, Dai Mubai's face showed a slight joy, and he was quite satisfied.
Seeing the sunset outside the window, and the enticing aroma of food wafting from the direction of the manor kitchen, I knew it was dinnertime.
After cultivating all afternoon, Dai Mubai's stomach was starting to rumble.
Without hesitation, he immediately got up and walked out of the room.
"Knock knock~"
"Little Ao, Fatty, it's time for dinner."
"Okay, boss, coming right away x2"
After knocking on Oscar and Ma Hongjun's doors and receiving responses from them, Dai Mubai went downstairs and headed towards the cafeteria.
As soon as he approached, Dai Mubai heard the voices of several teachers talking in the cafeteria.
"The academy cafeteria has recently improved its food, and we've gone through a lot of Soul Beast Soul Beast. Flender, could you allocate some more Gold Soul Coin and go to Tuosuo City or the nearby Soul Hunting Town tomorrow to purchase a batch of Soul Beast?"
"I've already spent a lot of money improving the teaching conditions recently. Although I still have some money, the expenses of buying this manor and purchasing slaves from the slave market were also considerable, so I don't have much money left right now."
"This is the proceeds after I sold the shopfront in Suotuo City and pawned all the antiques in the shop."
"Living off one's savings is not a long-term solution. Although the academy has always been short of funds, we've been complacent and lazy in the past, so we haven't paid much attention to this matter."
"Now we must focus all our efforts on nurturing Mubai, Hongjun, and Oscar. We can no longer act as we did before. As Soul Emperor / Soul Saint level experts, making money is relatively easy."
"Tuosuo City, as a border city, is chaotic and borders the Star Dou Great Forest. There are many Soul Hunting Town there, and countless Soul Master live on the edge. Shao Xin, your Sugar Bean is a hot commodity here."
"As one of the few Food System Soul Saint in the Douluo Continent, Shao Xin, you should make some Sugar Bean that restore Soul Power and detoxify and heal, and sell them. That should alleviate the academy's financial problems."
Although Flender came up with this solution, the worry on his face did not lessen.
With the college's expenses increasing, the money Shao Xin earns from selling Sugar Bean is probably limited, especially now that it's not just the college's normal expenses for educating students.
Ma Hongjun also needs money to buy medicinal herbs to solve the problems of incomplete Martial Soul Mutation and Evil Fire Martial Soul fire.
"Okay, no problem." Shao Xin had no objection to Flender's arrangement; he didn't object to selling his Sugar Bean for money.
For Food-Type Soul Master, this is a very common way to make money and make a living.
"Dean, is the academy out of funds?" Dai Mubai asked as he walked into the cafeteria after hearing Shao Xin and Flender's conversation.
"The college has a small student body, and the teachers don't need to be paid salaries. In the past, the expenses for keeping the college running were not high, so we old guys didn't have much motivation to make money."
"Now that the college has relocated, there have been some changes, and with some projects requiring funding, the finances are indeed a bit tight."
Flender didn't hide anything; when he brought it up, his face showed even more worry.
"As a student of the college, I cannot stand idly by while the college faces financial difficulties, and all these changes due to the college's relocation are also because of me."
"This card contains 100,000 Gold Soul Coin. Dean, please take it and use it first. If it's not enough, just come to me." Dai Mubai generously took out a storage crystal card that was universally accepted across the continent from his storage space and handed it to Flender.
"Hiss~ 100,000 Gold Soul Coin?!" Although he knew that Dai Mubai, as the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, was not short of money, Flender did not expect him to be so generous and extravagant, casually spending a full 100,000 Gold Soul Coin.
Keep in mind that even after he sold his shop in Suotuo City and pawned all the antiques and treasures in it, the final amount he received was less than 10,000 Gold Soul Coin.
Perhaps due to their humble origins, their thinking is somewhat limited.
Although he felt that as Soul Saint expert, making money was quite easy, such as having Shao Xin sell Sugar Bean, or forming a Soul Hunting Team with Zhao Wuji and Li Yusong to Soul Hunting beasts for others.
However, these methods also have limited earning potential.
Earning 100,000 Gold Soul Coin, in particular, is impossible for Flender and his team in a short period of time, even if they try their best.
Dai Mubai's generous donation of 100,000 Gold Soul Coin easily resolved Shrek Academy's current financial difficulties, which surprised Flender.
For the first time, Flender gained a clearer understanding of Dai Mubai's identity as the third prince of the Star Luo Empire.
At the same time, Flender once again sincerely felt that Shrek Academy's decision to side with Dai Mubai was extremely wise and correct.
"I didn't expect you to be so rich, Mubai. No wonder you're a prince of the Star Luo Empire, haha..." Seeing Dai Mubai's extravagant spending, Zhao Wuji put his arm around his shoulder, his face full of surprise and joy.
"Since you've said so, Mubai, then I won't stand on ceremony with you." The entire faculty and student body of the Shrek Academy had already sided with Dai Mubai, especially since Shrek Academy was essentially a makeshift organization.
Although Flender is ostensibly the dean of the Shrek Academy, they are actually all working for Dai Mubai now.
Even if Dai Mubai, the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, wasn't the dean of the Shrek Academy, he was still the largest shareholder and director of the Shrek Academy. Since they were all family, Flender didn't stand on ceremony with Dai Mubai.
He accepted the crystal card without hesitation.
However, while Flender seemingly accepted the crystal card without any hesitation, at the same moment Flender accepted the crystal card, a system notification sounded in Dai Mubai's mind.
