Chapter 87: Chapter 86 "The Snack Shop
The owner of the voice that they had just heard had by now arrived in front of them. It was none other than their physical education instructor, Mu Yunyu.
Mu Yunyu didn\'t even spare a glance at Du Bai, her gaze lingering on Tang San as she sized him up twice, "I\'ve heard about your achievements. It seems I\'ve been too conservative with your physical training. Tomorrow, you\'ll need to step it up."
Tang San\'s mouth twitched slightly as he said helplessly, "Okay, Sister Yu."
Mu Yunyu said, "Take a look. Our little shop has quite a few nice things. Do you need me to introduce them to you? However, each item has a description underneath, so you could just look for yourself."
Tang San quickly responded, "I\'ll take a look myself, no need to trouble you, Sister Yu."
While the items in this world were somewhat unfamiliar to him, the Godking\'s eyesight was not to be underestimated! Besides, with descriptions available, he would not miss out on the good stuff.
Just as Tang San was about to have a look, Du Bai suddenly began limping, "Sister Yu, I think I pulled a muscle today. Can I take a day off tomorrow?"
Mu Yunyu said indifferently, "Beat it. You don\'t have the money to buy anything, so don\'t get in the way."
Struggling a bit, Du Bai said, "Sister Yu, I\'m like a mascot. You should be nicer to a mascot."
Mu Yunyu spoke disdainfully, "Your little bit of Power of Luck can\'t affect me. Talk to me again when you break through the Sixth Stage. Although, I\'ve always thought you might never make that breakthrough in this lifetime."
Du Bai\'s mouth twitched, "Sister Yu, that\'s not fair. Why can\'t I break through? I definitely can."
"No more nonsense, get lost. I don\'t want to be upset by the sight of you."
Du Bai said helplessly, "Alright, Sister Yu, I\'ll head out then." In this academy, he truly couldn\'t afford to provoke anyone!
Watching him leave, Mu Yunyu shook her head somewhat helplessly. In the academy, it might be difficult to determine who had the strongest Demon God Transformation, but when it came to potential and rarity, the Heavenly Fox Transformation definitely held the top spot. Even among the entire Monsters, the Heavenly Fox Eye was among the most supreme. The Heavenly Fox High Priest was also one of the most top-tier figures within the Ancestral Court.
Unfortunately, the bloodline power within Du Bai was rather thin, perhaps because it was too difficult for Humans to make a significant impact in this regard. Therefore, his cultivation of the Heavenly Fox Eye was indeed very slow. Actually, the academy provided him with the most resources, and had the highest expectations for him. Du Bai hardly needed to complete any tasks to receive the best resources from the academy. However, up to this point, he still had not broken through the Fourth Stage.
Of course, if he could break through the Fourth Stage, that would be a completely different level of existence. The Fourth Stage of the Sky Fox\'s Eye could do things far beyond what was currently possible.
After Du Bai left, Mu Yunyu herself returned to the chair in the main house to sit down, flipping through a book in her hands. Tang San, meanwhile, began browsing through the "convenience store."
He started with the room on the far left. Most items in this room were plant-based with simple annotations below each.
Almost all were various spiritual herbs, indicating what type of energy they contained and their effects. Each was clearly priced, and naturally, the prices were quite steep. The more precious and suitable for the general population\'s cultivation, the more expensive the spiritual medicine was.
Since arriving in this world, Tang San had yet to consume any spiritual herbs. However, in his previous life, he was renowned for his knowledge of such herbs. The Tang Sect he founded was especially proficient in medicine. Even in the life before that, his understanding of medicine was extraordinarily high, part of which was recorded in the Mystic Sky Records.
Nonetheless, the spiritual herbs in the world of Demon Monster Land differed greatly from those in his past lives. Perhaps this was due to the existence of Spirit Monsters in this world. But spiritual herbs are spiritual herbs, and many of their properties shared a commonality in effect. Tang San carefully reviewed them, assessing and comparing them in his mind. Just looking at the annotations of these herbs was of great help to him, providing him with a deeper understanding of the species native to this plane.
During his browsing, Mu Yunyu glanced at him three times, each time noticing that Tang San was intently reading the introductions to the shop\'s products.
A child of nine being so calm and collected surprised her, and she couldn\'t help but nod to herself in approval.
When Du Bai first came here, the first question he asked was what was the most expensive, the second was what could make him advance in rank directly. He didn\'t get to ask a third question before Mu Yunyu sent him packing.
Meanwhile, Tang San had asked nothing from start to finish and had thoroughly looked around all three rooms. It wasn\'t until the bell signaling mealtime rang from outside that he snapped out of it.
"It\'s mealtime, I\'m going to close the shop. Is there anything you\'d like?" Mu Yunyu asked.
Tang San replied with a hint of regret, "Sister Yu, I haven\'t finished looking yet. Can I come back tomorrow to continue?"
Mu Yunyu nodded, "Of course. The shop is open at all times. You can come and look whenever you like. As a newcomer, you can pick an item worth one Spirit Rhinoceros Coin to take for free."
The purchasing power of a single Spirit Rhinoceros Coin was already astonishing outside, but here, there weren\'t many things valued at less than one Spirit Rhinoceros Coin.
"Okay, thanks, Sister Yu. I\'ll go have lunch now and come back tomorrow to choose," Tang San said, walking away satisfied.
He didn\'t expect that his biggest gain today would be from the shop, which had substantially increased his understanding of the species of the Demon Monster Land.
Dinner was still sumptuous, but obviously, there was no Demon Beast Meat, which wasn\'t something easily obtained. Tang San heard from Du Bai that even if a Demon Beast was hunted and brought back, it was usually sold to Jiali Academy. Jiali Academy would pay for it, which was one of the important sources of income for the academy town.
After dinner, Wu Bingji and Cheng Zicheng arrived as promised. When Wu Bingji saw that Tang San had also invited Cheng Zicheng, he was a bit surprised, but he just smiled at Cheng Zicheng and didn\'t say much else.
Tang San poured them each a cup of water and they sat down in the living room.
Wu Bingji said, "Xiao Tang, I\'m very interested in your compressed wind blade, and also the way you control the flight of the wind blade. Is it purely by spiritual power, or is there a technique involved?"
Tang San replied, "The compression of the wind blade is definitely the result of the combination of Spiritual Power and bloodline power. The method of Wind Blade Shot is more about technique, assisted by some control of Spiritual Power."
"It\'s mainly based on technique?" Cheng Zicheng looked at him in surprise. Everyone thought that Tang San was able to control the wind blade so precisely because of his strong Spiritual Power, but to hear him say it was mainly technique was unexpected.
Tang San nodded, "It\'s mainly technique, something I\'ve researched." His words were somewhat ambiguous, but it wasn\'t incorrect to say that it was his own research.
The Hundred Solutions to Tang Sect\'s Secret Weapons were indeed techniques of exquisite finesse, but they didn\'t reach the level Tang San had in his last life. After all, in his life at the Tang Sect, he possessed no fantastical abilities nor any talk of controlling Spiritual Power. It was during his last life in Soul Land, combining the concealed weapon technique of the Hundred Solutions to Tang Sect\'s Secret Weapons with Spiritual Power, that he greatly enhanced the power and prominence of those techniques. It was not an overnight achievement but rather a treasure brought from his previous world.
