121: Gratitude

Qian Yi got straight to the point, "I have been to Civilization Relic No. 1 before."

"You have been there too?" Xiao Weiqing asked in surprise.

"That's right. 12 years ago, I also obtained some Opportunity in those ruins, which is how I achieved my current strength."

Xiao Weiqing continued to listen.

"Originally, I wanted to save this Opportunity for Wei Lan, but since she has returned to the Wei Family and entered their ruins, she likely won't go to Civilization Relic No. 1."

"So, I will give this Opportunity to you."

"Teacher Qian, may I ask what kind of Opportunity it is?"

Xiao Weiqing was intrigued. He knew that among the instructors, Qian Yi was the Powerhouse closest to the Seventh Realm.

Qian Yi smiled playfully, "However, why should I tell you?"

Xiao Weiqing felt a bit helpless. Didn't you say you wanted to give it to me?

"Teacher Qian, you're being too formal. You are Wei Lan's master, and I am her boyfriend." Xiao Weiqing quickly played the emotional card.

"Formal? Am I? Even if you are Wei Lan's boyfriend, what does that have to do with me? You aren't my…"

Suddenly, Qian Yi seemed to realize something was wrong and stopped abruptly.

Xiao Weiqing looked down at the floor tiles.

"Ahem… There is something in Civilization Relic No. 1. If you help me get it, I will give you the Opportunity for free, and you won't have to return that moon spring spirit liquid."

Xiao Weiqing asked, "What is it?"

"A mind spirit fruit!"

"A mind spirit fruit? What does it look like, and what does it do?"

Qian Yi explained, "A mind spirit fruit looks like a transparent crystal peach. It is a treasure for Spirit Cultivator cultivation and is worth 80,000 points. If you can help me get one, you won't have to return the moon spring spirit liquid, and the Opportunity is yours for free."

Xiao Weiqing pondered for a moment and said, "Teacher, this is difficult. Let me think about it. Why don't you tell me about the Opportunity first?"

Qian Yi retorted, "You cunning brat."

"I'll be straightforward with you. There is an assessment somewhere in Civilization Relic No. 1. Only top Geniuses are qualified to enter. I relied on my high Mental Energy back then to enter, and I obtained something that led to my achievements today."

"If it is you, I believe you can also enter. You will definitely gain something, and what you obtain will definitely be worth more than 80,000 points."

"Teacher Qian, if there is one thing about me, it is that I am someone who repays kindness." Xiao Weiqing immediately pledged his determination.

"I don't need you to repay me."

"Just get me one mind spirit fruit."

Xiao Weiqing said, "Teacher, I might not be able to get a mind spirit fruit. What if I can't find one? The ruins are so big."

"Don't worry, the assessment I mentioned has them. Once you pass the second assessment, you can choose a reward. Just choose a mind spirit fruit." Qian Yi's tone was gentle.

"Don't hesitate. This kind of Opportunity is rare." Qian Yi's voice was slightly seductive.

Xiao Weiqing was about to agree when he suddenly remembered something.

"Teacher Qian, wait a moment."

Xiao Weiqing opened his Wristband and searched for "mind spirit fruit".

"It's not here?"

Xiao Weiqing glanced at Qian Yi. Qian Yi looked away, but he noticed her slight, guilty evasion.

Then, he searched again according to Qian Yi's description.

The interface popped up with a transparent fruit that basically matched Qian Yi's description, but the name was missing a character, and the introduction was very concise.

"mind spirit fruit?"

"Rich in divine charm, an Awakening divine object for Spirit Cultivator, value… ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand… 800,000 points?"

Xiao Weiqing exclaimed, then looked up, his eyes widening as he stared at Qian Yi.

Qian Yi felt a bit embarrassed under his gaze and laughed awkwardly, "800,000? Isn't it 80,000? The academy is really something. Why didn't they notify me about the price increase?"

Xiao Weiqing drooped his eyelids and stared at Qian Yi without speaking.

Keep making it up. Keep going.

"Weiqing, I really didn't know. I don't know why this mind spirit fruit suddenly increased in price. Don't mind it."

"Hmph! 600,000 points." Xiao Weiqing said.

"What?"

"If Teacher provides the clue, and I am lucky enough to pass the assessment and get the mind spirit fruit, you can have it in exchange for 600,000 points."

Qian Yi smiled, "Weiqing, let's talk this over. I am Wei Lan's teacher, you are Wei Lan's boyfriend, our relationship is there, right? Always talking about points back and forth, isn't that being too formal?"

"Teacher Qian, it is better to keep our relationships clear. It is true that Wei Lan is my girlfriend, but you are not…"

"Hmm?"

Qian Yi glanced at Xiao Weiqing.

Xiao Weiqing turned his head, "600,000 points. Teacher Qian, you want to get something for free from me? Don't even think about it."

"Xiao Weiqing, you should know that you are not the only one going to Civilization Relic No. 1. I can absolutely find someone else to cooperate with."

"Then do you think anyone else has as much confidence as I do?"

Qian Yi paused. She was looking for Xiao Weiqing because he was powerful; he had already reached the Second Dan in just a few months.

Plus, with his relationship with Wei Lan, it was safe to cooperate.

"How about this: we split the mind spirit fruit in half. Wei Lan is also a Spirit Cultivator, she will definitely need it, and I will compensate you with a top-tier Level 4 Talent Skill for Spirit Cultivator."

Qian Yi sat up straight and spoke seriously.

Xiao Weiqing thought for a moment, "Fine."

"The rewarded mind spirit fruit is worth 800,000 points. This assessment must not be simple. Maybe there are other gains."

"And those few bottles of moon spring spirit liquid…"

Qian Yi narrowed her eyes, "Hmph, not a single point less."

"…"

Afterward, Qian Yi told Xiao Weiqing the location of the Opportunity and informed him of her mark.

"Weiqing, work hard. If you get the mind spirit fruit, I won't treat you badly. There will definitely be more benefits in the future."

"Fine, Teacher Qian, I will accept this big promise. I hope I have something to show for it."

The two parted ways.

Xiao Weiqing hurried back to the Ziwei Courtyard.

Halfway there, he suddenly stopped.

Then, he changed direction.

A weapon shop.

"Xiao Weiqing, why are you here?"

"Do you want to forge a weapon?" Xing Tong asked loudly.

Xiao Weiqing smiled, "I came to see Teacher Xing."

"You brat, do you think I believe that?"

"If you have something to say, spit it out. I am busy."

Xiao Weiqing chuckled, "Teacher Xing, you know that Civilization Relic No. 1 is about to open, right?"

"Hmm, I heard. But what does that have to do with me?"

"Of course it does, Teacher Xing. I heard that there are many Heaven And Earth Treasure in these ruins. Don't you need anything?"

Xing Tong glanced at Xiao Weiqing and suddenly laughed.

"Haha…"

"Good kid, I knew you wouldn't come to me without a reason. So you were plotting this."

"But I can't help you much. It was 30 years ago when I went to Civilization Relic No. 1. Even if I had some information, it wouldn't be of much use to you now. Too much time has passed."

Xiao Weiqing was exposed by Xing Tong, but he wasn't embarrassed.

"That is a pity."

Xing Tong said, "Go find Old Ghost Yan. He definitely has a place where he needs you. Even if I asked you to help me find some Ore, would you be willing?"

Xiao Weiqing chuckled and didn't speak.

Of course he wouldn't be willing. How many points could a piece of Ore be worth? Ore takes up space, is heavy, and is inconvenient to carry.

"Then Teacher Xing, I will go first."

"Go on."
