Chapter 439: Chapter 311 Academy Mall

Li Yi entered the Cultivation Room and set down his belongings, taking in the arrangement of the room.

The modest Cultivation Room resembled a simply furnished studio apartment. Though it seemed ordinary at first glance, its wonders could only be truly appreciated once inside.

For instance, the room was extremely quiet, with all external noise blocked out.

Moreover, the cosmic energy in the surroundings continuously climbed as time passed. Even sleeping here could slowly evolve one’s body.

Additionally, there was a welcome package for newcomers on the first day.

Li Yi saw a box placed on the desk. Upon opening it, it contained some important items—there was a mobile phone exclusive to Golden Academy, capable of connecting to satellite signals and exceptionally durable. It includes various functions, his student ID, and... what’s this?

Suddenly, he noticed three books.

Rather than books, they were more like three soft electronic screens.

Touching one, the screen lit up displaying three characters: Guiding Skill.

"Is this a skill?" Li Yi’s expression changed as he activated the other two screens.

"Divine Movement Technique, Seven Meridian Cultivation Skill."

"Three free skills?" Li Yi quickly realized that these were the three basic skills provided by Golden Academy for new students. But seeing the familiar Guiding Skill, he couldn’t help but laugh.

It was somewhat ironic.

Back in Tianchang City, Lin Yue spent a lot of money to acquire a skill that was given for free at Golden Academy. Some people even resorted to dirty tricks for a single skill, risking their lives in the process.

Looking back, it was foolish.

However, after laughing, Li Yi also realized that it wasn’t that the people back then were foolish; instead, he had unknowingly stepped into one of the top academies in the world, possessing cultivation resources everyone envied. These things, seemingly ordinary at Golden Academy, could still cause a frenzy if taken outside.

Having something often makes it seem ordinary—a mindset common to all.

Li Yi briefly reviewed the other two skills, getting a sense of them.

Divine Movement Technique increased a cultivator’s mobility, relying on cosmic energy within the body to burst forth unimaginable speed, useful for attacking or escaping.

Seven Meridian Cultivation Skill, as the name suggests, was a meditation cultivation skill that could help cultivators cultivate faster and also enhance their Cultivation Value. However, since Li Yi had mastered the White Bone Temple Cultivation Skill, this Seven Meridian Cultivation Skill wasn’t as important. After all, one could only perform one cultivation skill during meditation, not two simultaneously.

As for the Guiding Skill, he had already mastered it.

Thus, of these three basic skills, only the Divine Movement Technique was of use to Li Yi.

"The Guiding Skill deepens a cultivator’s use of body energy, paving the way for advancing to the Spirit Power Realm. Divine Movement Technique ensures survival—if faced with a stronger enemy, a quick escape is possible. And the Seven Meridian Cultivation Skill accelerates the cultivation pace, fostering faster growth for students. Combined with the Cultivation Room, it’s like adding wings to a tiger; hence, all three skills are very targeted and custom-made for new students," Li Yi thought to himself.

Then, he found three bottles of Extraordinary Water in the box, a healing medicine precious outside but common here.

Apart from that, Li Yi also found a tablet.

Compared to other items, this tablet seemed quite ordinary.

However, when Li Yi turned it on, he discovered a prominent app on the tablet: Academy Marketplace.

Immediately, his eyes slightly narrowed upon opening it.

The Academy Marketplace displayed an overwhelming array of unexpected products. Just a brief glance revealed many unimaginable items.

"Second-generation spacecraft, Transcendent weapons, remains of mythical creatures, intelligent robots... even many skills—Crystal Visualization Technique, Wind Control Skill, Enchantment Technique."

Everything you could think of, and even things you couldn’t, were available in this marketplace. Li Yi even found the exact same armor he received today listed in the catalog. Though these were not the most surprising. The most astonishing were the flawed extraordinary items prominently listed for sale at the top.

Yes.

There were actually people selling flawed extraordinary items—and more than one.

Li Yi saw a cracked jade disk engraved with dragon patterns, quite extraordinary but missing a corner. Hence, its magical extent and energy field were greatly reduced, barely half a meter wide, capable of supporting only one Evolver in cultivation. Besides that, this flawed extraordinary item had no special abilities.

Clearly, this was a low-level flawed extraordinary item, at most equivalent to a portable Mysterious Object Cultivation Room with limited value.

There was also a broken sword, only the hilt left, but two magical runes on it emitted a faint golden glow, with cosmic energy gathering around, vaguely hinting at its sharp edge.

"Have flawed extraordinary items become commonplace at Golden Academy too?"

Li Yi took a deep breath, calmed down, and then looked around the Cultivation Room, roughly understanding the situation.

With a Cultivation Room comparable to a Mysterious Object Cultivation Room, these flawed extraordinary items indeed held little value.

Although convenient to carry, those daring to sell flawed extraordinary items must certainly possess better things.

Although the damaged rare item is for sale, its price is marked very high, entirely at one hundred thousand points.

"This one hundred thousand points is definitely not one hundred thousand yuan, I wonder what currency the academy’s marketplace uses." Li Yi checked his own account, not a single point, still very poor, he can’t afford anything in the mall filled with various items.

He browsed more.

Li Yi found that there are two very precious things in the marketplace: one is rare items, and the other is cultivation methods from another world.

Moreover, the more powerful the cultivation method, the more precious it is, but almost all the cultivation methods in the marketplace are incomplete, and there are very few complete heritages, obviously, some people did not learn everything after crossing worlds, only learned part of it.

In comparison, Li Yi’s martial arts heritage is already quite good since he only lacks the cultivation methods of Refining God and Dharma Image realms.

"This is, Immortal Cultivation... Unfortunately, Qi Cultivation twelve levels, here are only the first six levels." He curiously read the introduction, Qi Cultivation six levels are useless, can only perform some minor spells, and also talk about wisdom and talent, the threshold to enter is high, not comparable to evolution.

However, Immortal Cultivation belongs to the type that accumulates slowly and progresses all at once. Initially, it is tiresome, but once reaching the Golden Core Stage, one becomes a major powerhouse.

But practicing this involves years, often ten or twenty years, either meditating or on the way to meditation.

The advantages of Immortal Cultivation are very clear, and so are the disadvantages.

Compared to that, the students of Golden Academy prefer martial arts more.

Because their bodies have evolved, learning martial arts is very fit, progress is rapid, and it enhances combat power quickly, almost without any bottlenecks, and everyone is a martial arts genius.

"No wonder the examiners were so excited knowing I also practice martial arts." Li Yi mused, "Upon entering the Golden Academy, it means that there is a new martial arts heritage in Golden Academy, it seems I was right to reject the previous trade, if I had agreed then, I would be at a big loss now."

He seriously browsed and evaluated.

His martial arts heritage could sell for around one hundred thousand points, exchange for a damaged rare item, and if he obtains the cultivating methods for the subsequent two realms, completing the martial arts tradition, the price could double several times.

During the initial trade, a spaceship was worth about thirty thousand in Golden Academy.

Li Yi’s martial arts heritage could exchange for three spaceships.

Moreover, the extraordinary weapon in Jiang Mingtian’s hands only sells for ten thousand here, but he also knew one extraordinary weapon wouldn’t exchange for a martial arts heritage, so he added another condition, helping Li Yi tame an extraordinary creature.

The price of this thing is hard to determine, its value depends on the individual.

If used well, Li Yi could tame a Soul Realm extraordinary creature, greatly increasing his strength.

If not used well, it’s just an addition of a Spiritual Realm mount.

But that Di Zhu’an’s mastery of crossing points among these people is the most precious, the only one selling crossing points in the academy’s marketplace directly marked the price at two hundred thousand and equivalent to two damaged rare items, but no one bought it, probably just setting a high price to attract people, but Li Yi thought, if it was half off maybe people would be interested.

"It seems I need to carefully consider the next trade." Li Yi thought to himself.

He continued to look.

Suddenly.

One item gave Li Yi the impulse to buy.

A storage bag?

"Is this thing also for sale?" Li Yi’s eyes widened, then quickly learned more about it.

This item appears small, but actually contains an entire little space within it, not large, about twelve cubic meters.

But for an evolver, this thing is an ultra-modish existence.

Twelve cubic meters of space, if used well, extremely aids in strength, and after crossing worlds, many things cannot be carried along, but with a storage bag, these issues are nonexistent.

However, the owner of the storage bag also knows the strategic importance of this item, so it’s not for sale, only willing to exchange for a complete set of cultivation methods.

"These students of Golden Academy, each concealing their wealth, I wouldn’t have known these people had secretly made a fortune if I hadn’t come here." Li Yi thought silently.

No need to think.

This storage bag must have been obtained after crossing to another world.

I can go to the Four Seas and Eight Continents to study martial arts, the other party can definitely go to other worlds to learn other world’s cultivation methods, and get some precious items from other worlds.

Suddenly.

Li Yi thought of the Life Extending Pill in his hand, maybe, this thing could be very valuable.

Because after looking around, he didn’t see anyone in the marketplace selling life span.

This might be an opportunity for him.
