I Can Grant Origin Powers To Anything

Chapter 165: Chapter 164: My Martial Mansion Can’t Be This Harmonious

In Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, this Spirit Blood Potion doesn’t seem to be anything special; the price is only 10 Academic Credits.

Xu Lingjun hesitated for a moment, but eventually bought a bottle.

Not for any particular reason; he just wanted to taste it.

A notification appeared before his eyes.

[Detected inferior Spirit Blood Potion. Would you like to grant it true origin? It requires consuming 190 points of Source Value.]

The consumption is not insignificant; it’s actually quite large.

Xu Lingjun was unwilling to grant the origin and instead slowly opened the bottle and drank it directly.

The nearby stall owner widened his eyes in disbelief, nearly dropping the credit scanner in his hand.

The Spirit Blood Potion contains extremely potent Qi Blood. Normally, wouldn’t one find a wide-open place, drink it, and practice Martial Skills diligently, so the Qi Blood can circulate through the body for the best effect?

If you drink it directly, the Qi Blood may not find a release, and it could damage you...

After Xu Lingjun drank it,

he closed his eyes and sensed it carefully, only to feel the rich Qi Blood surge into his limbs and bones, giving his body a rare sense of fullness.

Not bad.

It seems I underestimated this Spirit Blood Potion... In terms of effect, this thing, even before granting origin, is already much stronger than the Blood Replenishing Oral Liquid with granted origin.

Especially with the presence of Spiritual Qi.

It enhances the body and repairs hidden injuries...

No wonder this thing sells so well; it can both enhance cultivation and heal injuries.

But do I have any hidden injuries?

As for enhancing the body...

Downing dozens of bottles of Blood Replenishing Oral Liquid might achieve a similar effect.

After drinking this potion, Xu Lingjun had some rough ideas in his mind. It seems this type of potion doesn’t help him much, but he consumed a lower Grade, so perhaps the effect wasn’t supposed to be great.

If he also consumes Source Value to grant it origin, pushing it to the highest Grade, maybe it would have an enormous effect.

But doing so would consume both Academic Credits and a large amount of Source Value, and even he couldn’t sustain such daily consumption.

What he lacks now is Source Value.

Xu Lingjun burped and continued looking forward.

The stall owner was left staring in shock at Xu Lingjun’s departing figure, just... just a burp?

Did I sell a fake potion?

Could it be that I’ve unknowingly turned into a merchant tainted by greed? Once full of ambition at Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, wanting to show my abilities, but did I end up as just a merchant?

The stall owner fell into deep self-blame.

And Xu Lingjun continued walking forward...

The street was dazzling, filled with all sorts of items specifically for Martial Artists.

Sharp weapons, resilient protective clothing, elixirs and potions for cultivation, and lots of fresh blood and meat from the mysterious races of the heavens and demon beasts.

There were many things, and they were of good quality.

Bargaining students were everywhere... But strictly speaking, these vendors were actually students of Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion too, just trying to earn Academic Credits this way.

Being seniors and juniors, they wouldn’t be too harsh or rigid.

With an approximate offer, the deal is usually made.

Both parties can soon be happy...

The atmosphere was harmoniously chaotic.

There were no scenes of merchant fraud or customers aggressively plundering.

Xu Lingjun sighed deeply.

Indeed, the style of Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion is quite strange.

Where’s the legendary using subpar items as excellent, or overbearing attitudes?

Are you all this friendly?

Guess there’s no good business to be found here.

He began to seriously shop around, from one end of the street to the other.

Then he sadly discovered...

Here, there’s really nothing he can use.

The effect of the Spirit Blood Potion is good, but with enough Source Value, he could completely use the Blood Replenishing Oral Liquid to win by quantity.

Although the effect of a Spirit Blood Potion with granted origin would surely far surpass that of the Blood Replenishing Oral Liquid, perhaps even providing more benefit than the blood and flesh of the mysterious races of the heavens...

But the problem is that he lacks Source Value.

Especially with this effort, he’d rather just consume the granted flesh and blood of the mysterious races of the heavens.

The flesh and blood of the mysterious races of the heavens being sold, as well as the flesh and blood of Demon Beasts, are effective but only somewhat so. Without Source Value... they lose their special qualities and can only be used to increase Qi Blood.

Then there are weapons and protective suits.

No matter how strong the protective suit is, could it really be stronger than the Vibranium Armor he wears?

What’s more, there’s now an additional set of Nanometer Armor.

As for the weapons...

Xu Lingjun feels that ordinary weapons might not even be as powerful as his own two hands, and he can’t afford expensive weapons...

More than 300 academic credits seem like a lot, but after all, he’s just a freshman, not even middle-class, especially since he’s still a Second stage Student, it’s likely his total assets are at the bottom.

Looks like I still need to do good deeds.

So then...

In the following days, Xu Lingjun’s steps were no longer confined to the resource area. Instead, he walked through all six academic districts when not cultivating.

Observing in detail the situation in Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion.

And then he sadly discovered...

There’s really nothing good to do.

The unique educational methods of Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion ensure that new students receive the care and attention of their elder teaching assistants. Although it’s not all-encompassing, seeking help from a teaching assistant has become an unwritten rule at Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion.

Moreover, the high-level students hardly dare to bully these junior level Students lightly.

Firstly, they are very busy. Rarely does anyone have just one student; several students come along, plus their own cultivation, they are as busy as dogs, where is the time to act as bullies?

Also, those students are all junior level Students. Even if they skip classes frequently, they can be seen at least once in a while. If there’s gossip among them...

Once you gain a bad reputation, recruiting students becomes even harder.

You’d end up becoming Gu Widow~Fu, and that would be tragic.

Gu Widow~Fu is Gu Xi’s nickname, of course, it’s never dare to be said openly.

Mocking her for not finding students... in Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, that’s worse than not being able to find a man.

Of course, now the information on the tablet has been updated again.

The name Gu Widow~Fu has been officially revoked because she’s found another student, and it’s this session’s Dragon Gate Champion Scholar, rumored to be a super genius with over 800 points in the martial test.

And it’s a man.

So she can’t be called Widow~Fu anymore.

But this unique educational policy has left Xu Lingjun unable to find a single flaw.

Being a good person?

The teaching assistants have already done it all. In Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, the only way to earn someone’s genuine gratitude is to become a teaching assistant, find a conscientious student, and care for her meticulously—even considering the possibility of encountering an ungrateful one who might think all this is what you’re supposed to do, rendering it all for naught.

Meanwhile, as Xu Lingjun tried hard to find Source Value.

The entire Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion began to stir.

The new students, after a month in school, have become familiar with the many rules within the martial mansion.

Thus...

The previous top hundred-ranking list started to update and evolve rapidly.

The top hundred list represents the top hundred most excellent students of each grade, though its name may be simple, the extra academic credit rewards each month are enough to attract everyone’s attention.

The students have recognized the importance of academic credits.

Naturally, they pay even more attention to the rankings on the top hundred list, competing fiercely, especially as the end of the month approaches and the score rewards are about to be distributed... the contest grows even more intense.

But thanks to the presence of teaching assistants, the fights mostly occur within a certain scope.

At this point, everyone discovered that an unassuming new student had quietly entered the 17th position of the Second stage top hundred list.

She directly challenged the 17th-ranked student, then easily defeated them...

Li Jingjun!

For a time, Li Jingjun’s name spread widely. Some even predicted, based on her ability to easily defeat the 17th-ranked student, that she might already possess the capability to enter the top ten; it’s just that, for some reason, she didn’t continue challenging upward.

In comparison, the Dragon Gate Champion Scholar Xu Lingjun, failed to even break into the top hundred list. For a time, everyone was talking, saying it was unexpected that Xu Lingjun turned out to be an academic talent. Although his exam scores were high, when it comes to actual fighting, he’s really weak, not even wanting the academic credits he has.

Unfortunately, at this moment, Xu Lingjun wasn’t paying attention to this matter at all.

At this time, he was still worried about his Source Value...

Academic Credits?

He wasn’t lacking academic credits, what he wanted was Source Value.

As he returned after another fruitless day.

It was just on this day, when reaching his door, that he was attracted by a piercing cry.

Opposite him, the large orange cat he’d met once before was desperately scratching at the door, emitting intermittent cries with a tremor.

It seemed as if it had been thrown out of the house...

Xu Lingjun was taken aback and, intrigued, said, "This cat still hasn’t found its owner?"

Could it be that Li Jingjun couldn’t find the owner after a month of searching, so she abandoned the cat altogether?
