93: Chapter 93 Exchange Skills
Inside the top-tier medical capsule at Heaven Character Number One Villa.
Wang Pingan lay there leisurely, feeling the high-concentration repair fluid nourishing every inch of his flesh and nerves, which were exhausted from the overdraft of his spirit, like countless pairs of gentle little hands.
It felt good—damn good.
He pulled up his personal terminal and looked at the number on it, which was so long it made him dizzy; his mouth stretched almost to his ears.
【Credits: 105,000】
One hundred and five thousand!
"This money is way too easy to earn, isn't it?" Wang Pingan thought happily.
Thinking back to the Special Recruitment Camp, he had to go down into mines and sign life-or-death contracts with people just for a few hundred or a thousand points, working himself to the bone.
Now, it's a different story; just by flicking his fingers on his first day at school, he had obtained one hundred thousand credits.
The efficiency was simply worlds apart.
"It seems that knowledge really is power," he sighed with heartfelt emotion.
Being able to rake in so much wealth this time was entirely due to his spirit, which far exceeded that of ordinary people, as well as the monstrous ability of the 【Eye of Truth】.
Facts proved that skilled technical jobs are popular everywhere.
With a thought, he entered the fantastical world of the Campus Star Network once again.
This time, without the slightest hesitation, he opened the 【Exchange Center】 directly.
His gaze was like a torch, locking directly onto the target he had been longing for for so long.
【Phantom Gods Eye: Intermediate spirit attack secret technique; can cast illusions on enemies through eye contact, causing them to fall into a hallucinatory state. Exchange price: 30,000 credits.】
"Exchange!"
Wang Pingan's finger tapped down heavily.
【Credits - 30,000】
【The rubbings of the Phantom Gods Eye secret technique have been sent to your personal inbox; please check it.】
Success!
Wang Pingan suppressed the excitement in his heart and immediately opened his personal inbox.
A virtual book composed of pure spirit, radiating a faint purple halo, was floating there quietly.
He did not learn it immediately, but instead exited the Campus Star Network first.
As his consciousness returned to his body, he leaped out of the medical capsule, feeling filled with unprecedented vitality.
The aftereffects of his spirit overdraft had been completely recovered with the help of the high-tech medical capsule.
He sat cross-legged on the jade-like cultivation platform in the center of the cultivation room and sank his mind into his brain.
"System, learn Phantom Gods Eye!"
【Detected intermediate spirit attack secret technique Phantom Gods Eye. Do you wish to consume pay-to-win points to learn it?】
【To learn and master Phantom Gods Eye to perfection, it requires consuming 10,000 pay-to-win points.】
Ten thousand points!
Wang Pingan didn't even blink.
Compared to the value of this divine skill, 10,000 pay-to-win points was practically a steal.
"Confirm!"
Boom!
A torrent of information, even more bizarre and profound than the Star Sea Contemplation Diagram, exploded in his spiritual sea of consciousness!
It was no longer just simple text and images.
It was an eye.
An eye so huge it was impossible to describe, seemingly composed of the nebulae and dark matter of the entire universe, filled with an eerie purple light!
That eye just opened quietly within his spiritual sea of consciousness.
The moment he was stared at by that eye, Wang Pingan felt as if his soul had been seen through.
Countless pieces of the most profound and essential knowledge—about how to distort light, how to interfere with perception, how to weave illusions, and how to trigger inner demons—rushed into the depths of his soul like a tidal wave.
Under the scouring of this torrent of information, his spirit began to reorganize and evolve in a brand-new way he had never encountered before.
He didn't know how much time had passed.
When Wang Pingan opened his eyes again.
A flash of eerie purple light flickered and vanished in his originally jet-black, deep eyes.
The whole world seemed to have an extra layer of different color in his eyes.
He looked at the crystal-like spiritual energy supply pipe in the corner of the cultivation room.
With a thought.
Phantom Gods Eye!
In his field of vision, that straight pipe actually began to twist eerily, like a twisted dough twist.
"Success!"
Wang Pingan was wild with joy.
This was only the shallowest level of application, merely distorting vision.
If he unleashed his full power, he could even construct a complete, indistinguishable hallucinatory world directly inside the enemy's mind!
By then, the enemy wouldn't even know how they died!
This was definitely another trump card, powerful enough to turn the tide of battle, following his spiritual telekinesis!
"Very good, very good."
Wang Pingan nodded in satisfaction.
He pulled up his system panel again.
【host: Wang Pingan】
【Realm: Fourth-Rank Martial Artist (Mid-stage, blood qi value 2000/5000)】
【Strength: 200.0】
【speed: 200.0】
【Physique: 200.0】
【spirit: 500.0】
【recovery: 200.0】
【pay-to-win points: 26,265】
Looking at the "500.0" that stood out, far ahead of the rest, Wang Pingan rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
The strength of his spirit certainly brought him huge benefits.
But the hidden danger of physical functional imbalance did indeed exist.
It was like a computer where the CPU was insanely powerful, but the graphics card, RAM, and hard drive were all antiques.
Forget about playing large-scale games; even if you just opened a webpage, it might cause a blue screen crash because the other hardware couldn't keep up.
"It seems it's time to upgrade the other hardware as well."
He had a plan in mind.
The Freshman Ranking Tournament was in one month.
Although that guy Qin Wushuang wasn't very bright, he still had strength.
Having been slapped in the face publicly by him time and time again, he would definitely be nursing a grudge and wanting to get back at him during the tournament.
He had to raise his own cultivation before then!
He even had to raise all his attributes to a height that would make everyone feel despair!
He began to calculate.
How many points it would be appropriate to raise the four attributes of Strength, speed, Physique, and recovery from 200 points.
According to the ratio for a Fourth-Rank Martial Artist, where 60 pay-to-win points increased an attribute by 1 point.
Looking at his remaining balance of just over twenty-six thousand, Wang Pingan's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Damn it, I just felt like I had made a fortune, and in the blink of an eye, I'm a pauper again."
"It looks like I have to keep going out to make money."
