Chapter 106 A U-Turn
Mingce smiled and said, "It's just a competition between students. Missing out on a good job is already a big punishment for the students.
I just think that if there is really no punishment, everyone will not try their best in the competition, and the significance of our experience will not be reflected..."
He was about to continue talking when he heard Yan Zhao's rude sneer. He quickly returned to the topic, "The losing students will serve in the temple's mines for two years. How about that?"
The prize was attractive enough, and the punishment was not small. The mine Mingce mentioned must be a heavy metal mine on a material planet with a lack of spiritual energy. Most warriors were unwilling to go there, unless they had made a serious mistake and needed to be reformed.
The climate on such a planet is harsh and the living conditions are difficult. It is impossible to practice for two years. Moreover, working twelve hours a day can wear away a person's vitality.
What's more, if you don't practice for two years, not only will your cultivation and aptitude not improve, but you will regress due to neglect and may even damage your foundation.
One step to heaven and one step to the abyss, it's so exciting. The students are half excited, half bitter and unwilling.
Yan Zhao clicked his tongue. "You want to make such a big deal? Have you asked the students what they think?"
Mingce continued to smile: "Of course, there is no problem with my students. If Yan Shengzi is not satisfied, how about we have a bet?"
"Oh? How do you bet? What do you like in my hand? What equivalent prize are you prepared to offer?" Yan Zhao finally became interested.
Mingce took out a cup-sized black stone with bluish-white patterns and said word by word, with a determined smile:
"I heard that Saint Yan made a great contribution in a mission to unite the Federation and the Empire to repel the monster tide, and thus received a storage ring with a thousand square meters. How about betting on this?
And I am willing to take out this piece of Qingmei Yaoshi as a prize."
Qingmei Yaoshi? Qiu Ling lowered his head to check the information.
Yan Zhao smiled and tilted his head to explain to her: "Green Plum Yaoshi is a kind of Yaoshi with green spots like plum blossoms. It is a rare mineral that has an effect on mental strength and human potential.
If there are high-level alchemy masters, they can refine the Green Plum Stone into upgrade pills, so that injured and demoted soldiers have a 50% chance of upgrading half a level or one level.
This kind of ore is a companion ore, which is extremely rare and can only be found by chance.
I have only heard of the five pieces of Qingmei Yaoshi."
Judging from the current situation, he really needs a piece of Qingmei Yaoshi. So Mingce was sure that he would be tempted and nod in agreement.
Qiu Ling nodded, "Can I take a look? What if this is fake news? Then we won the game but didn't make him bleed a lot. What a pity!"
Yan Zhao hummed, stood up straight and said lazily: "You said it was Qingmei Yaoshi, so is it? I have to check the goods first." As he said that, he casually took out a thousand-square-meter ring from his pocket and played with it in his hand.
Mingce naturally would not refuse. He walked forward, holding the Qingmei Yaoshi in his hand, and took the ring with a slight tremor.
Qiu Ling took a glance and thought, she made a thousand square meters storage ring that was a high imitation of an ordinary ring? When did he have someone make it?
Yan Zhao said righteously: "I put a lot of things in my storage ring, how can I let anyone use their spiritual sense to check it? So I specially found a weapon refiner and added a new formation.
But I won’t lie to you in front of so many students.”
In fact, he was afraid that his storage ring would be discovered to be empty, so he took a fake one to fool people.
At this moment, Qiu Ling also smiled and grabbed a handful of ten-square-meter storage rings, distributing them to the students next to him one by one: "I was just busy talking and forgot to give everyone a gift.
The gift is small but the sentiment is great, so please don’t despise it. There are three hundred in total, everyone can get one, don’t fight over it!”
Although the trainees were undergoing training and could not always pay attention to the live broadcast of the Shang Family Charity Association, they did see many videos that were recorded and edited during their breaks, including one in which Qiu Ling gave someone a gift.
Everyone was a little excited, but they all took a step back. The young man standing in the front blushed and said, "Master's wife, we, we don't have a gift of the same value."
An item that could excite those principals and envoys must be very valuable.
The students standing on the periphery had their equivalents, but they were not Yan Shengzi's students. Some were so anxious that they scratched their heads, and some even laughed and asked loudly, "I call you Master's Wife, do you have a gift for meeting me?"
Qiu Ling looked over in the direction of the voice and saw a group of students with longing expressions, their eyes sparkling.
Mingce coughed lightly, his voice already tinged with displeasure: "Do you really think that the rings given to the big shots are the same as the ones given to you?"
Qiu Ling nodded: "It's indeed different. The area is a bit small. It can barely be used as a greeting gift for everyone."
area?!
Is it the area they imagined?
Qiu Ling had already stuffed one into the hands of a female student and said with a smile, "You have also heard from Yan Zhao, I will take you to collect them later.
This is a reward. If you really feel bad, just help me collect more. I will share some with you when I refine the elixir later."
If this is really a storage ring, the students will not be able to refuse it at all!
They all looked at Yan Zhao.
The latter smiled and nodded: "You all call me Master's Wife. There is a saying that goes, you cannot refuse a gift from an elder. Take it, and remember to collect more spiritual herbs for your Master's Wife.
The things that General Wu gave her as a reward are cheap for you."
The students responded, and in unison, they loudly thanked Master's wife, then began to line up excitedly.
Qiu Ling distributed them one by one, and those who received the storage ring followed her instructions, bit their fingers and dripped blood onto the ring for refining.
The ten-square-meter storage ring is not that big. It has the function of recognizing the owner and keeping things fresh to a certain extent. But for them who wish they could break a crystal into eight petals and have never seen any resources, this is a huge lump of crystal that fell from the sky!
All their valuables now have a place to store them, and they can carry their food with them and eat whenever they want. With a 10-square-meter portable storage room, they can wake up with a smile.
The other students were envious. In fact, those who came from particularly well-off families also had rings, with houses ranging from five square meters to one hundred and eighty square meters.
But it was the first time they saw someone so arrogant. He held the storage ring like it was candy and gave it out to everyone he met. It was indeed different when you have the support of the imperial general king!
The news that Wu Yan had huge assets and a group of top-notch weapon-refining masters was clearly publicized by Qiu Ling and Yan Zhao.
Whether others believe it or not, Wu Yan himself believes it!
Qiu Ling then chuckled and took the Qingmei Yaoshi from Yan Zhao to check, "Ming Ce, there must be enough space in the ring. If not, we can fill it up for you."
The space she just distributed was 1,500 square meters.
At this moment, many students pulled Mingce's clothes and whispered in his ears.
Mingce waved at them and said with a faint smile: "Sir Yan, my students just said that they are willing to each give an additional 200,000 crystal stones.
If we win, their storage rings will belong to our students. If we lose, all these crystals will be given to you.
how about it? "
Yan Zhao glanced at everyone casually.
Those students all smiled very sincerely, not daring to show the slightest sign of inappropriateness, for fear of being caught by him.
"You don't have to take the crystals. If you lose, the jobs will belong to us. If we lose, the storage ring will belong to you. How about that?
The students’ future should not be defined by this competition. Friendship comes first and competition comes second. Forget about serving in the mines.
I'm really afraid that you will lose. Those noble families send people to chant sutras for me every day!
Besides, I think you all have a pretty positive outlook. It doesn't make sense for you to win and just watch my students work as miners without any practical benefits, right?"
Mingce almost cursed. Yan Zhao made a sudden turn. Was he the one with evil intentions who didn't consider the students?
The good reputation was taken away by Yan Zhao? But this arrangement is indeed more reasonable than the previous one, and there is nothing wrong with it.
"We think that Shengzi Yan's proposal is very good and fair to the students on both sides," several instructors who had been acting as background figures hurriedly acted as peacemakers. What was it like for outstanding graduates from the Temple to become miners?
What else could Mingce do except agree to it!
Qiu Ling carefully sensed the Qingmei Yaoshi, and even the invisible Huo Yuan and Sheng Shu were sensing it together.
This piece of brilliant stone with green plum flower spots does have the effect that Yan Zhao described. To be precise, it is the green plum flower spots that occupy half of the area that are the ingredients that produce the effect.
