Ordinary observers in fast time travel

The members of the Qinglan team smiled, and then Liu Yuan said, "We're not in a hurry. It's the same if our juniors order it for us after they're on vacation. We'll give you a deposit first."

As Liu Yuan spoke, she placed the mustard seed bag containing 500 cyan crystals on the handful of cyan crystals that Lu Tiancun had taken out. Upon seeing this, Lu Tiancun took out two more handfuls of cyan crystals from the mustard seed bag, bringing the total to at least 100 crystals.

Faced with this kind of forced sale, Shi Jia found it difficult to refuse.

600 Azure Crystals equals 600 Azure-Rank Turbid Beasts. Even if he hunts two a day, it would take him 300 days to hunt them all! Besides, with his abilities, he can't even hunt them alone! This deal is a sure-fire way to make money!
Shi Jia took a deep breath and accepted the answer!
He swept the crystals into his storage bag and looked at Liu Yuan. "Senior Liu Yuan, you can collect the requirements for the spirit swords and give them to me. I'll design them for you when I have time, and we'll materialize them all after the holidays!"

Liu Yuan nodded in satisfaction, "Then I'll trouble you, junior. I'll collect the requirements and send them to you in a bit. Shall we add each other's contact information first?"

"Ok."

Upon seeing this, many people in the crowd excitedly shouted, "Junior Brother Shi Jia/Classmate Shi Jia, I want to customize a spirit sword too!"

Shi Jia smiled happily, "Sorry, there are too many orders, I can't handle them all."

Aside from the onlookers, most people were very excited because they seemed to be witnessing the rise of a spirit artifact master or befriending a future spirit artifact master.

Aside from the big winner from the Blue Team, I have mixed feelings.

"Captain, isn't it a bit inappropriate for Shi Jia to customize a spirit sword for the Green Wings team? He's from our Azure Blue team!" On the Azure Blue team's exclusive training ground, team member Dai Yuxuan expressed his dissatisfaction.

“Yeah, Captain, why don’t you talk to him?” team member Chen Yinong chimed in.

Team members Cheng Zi and Huang Qi didn't say anything, they just looked at Lu Tianxue.

"He's just our team's spirit purifier, not our spirit artifact maker, much less our spirit magician or creative designer," Lu Tianxue said expressionlessly.

The other team members were stunned. Had their captain lost his temper?
"Then can't we sign another contract with him as a spirit weapon master?" Dai Yuxuan was still dissatisfied.

"There's no need. The other party wouldn't agree anyway." Lu Tianxue shook her head. "Does anyone want to change their magical artifact?"

"Captain, do you mean you commissioned Shi Jia to customize a spirit sword?" Huang Qi asked.

“Yes, it’s 200 Azure Crystals per sword. The team can subsidize 50 Azure Crystals, and the rest you have to pay yourself,” Lu Tianxue said. Although their team’s average strength was already at the upper level of the Green Rank, and she herself was at the early stage of the Green Rank, the number of crystals they could hunt each month was limited, only enough for one spirit sword.

"I want it!" Cheng Zi said. She was a spirit mage, but energy always runs out, so she also practiced martial arts. Her usual weapon was a long whip.

"Xiao Zi, you use a long whip, will you find it difficult to switch to a long sword?" Lu Tianxue asked worriedly.

Cheng Zi shook her head. "No, I won't change my spirit sword. I want to ask Junior Brother Shi Jia to customize a long whip." The long whip she's currently using is a Yellow-rank spirit weapon, which is sufficient for now, but it will definitely be insufficient as her strength increases. And now that the team is willing to subsidize her with 50 Azure Crystals, how could she not seize the opportunity?
“But Junior Brother Shi Jia…” Lu Tianxue didn’t know how to start the conversation. Could it be that Shi Jia didn’t have that ability yet? That wouldn’t be right, since they were teammates after all.

"He can do it, Captain. Junior Shi Jia is also a creative designer, and his creative major is ranked first." This is what she overheard from her aunt Cheng Ning.

"What? He's a creative director?" Dai Yuxuan's mouth dropped open in surprise.

"Yeah, Lao Dai, didn't you guys see the information I posted in the group?" Liu Zhan said with dissatisfaction. In order to find a Spirit Cleanser for their team, he had investigated all the first and second-year juniors and students before finally choosing Shi Jia, this prodigy.

"Um, you sent a bunch of materials, which one should I look at?" Dai Yuxuan wasn't guilty at all.

Lu Tianxue glanced at everyone and said, "Azhan, please introduce our new team member."

"Okay!" Liu Zhan immediately began to introduce it with great interest.

"Wait, you said he's a spirit purifier, a spirit artifact maker, a spirit magician, and a creative genius? Really? How did he do that?" Dai Yuxuan found it fantastical and expressed disbelief.

"How would I know? But the world is not lacking in geniuses, much less in prodigies!" Liu Zhan shrugged.

"No, so what if he cultivates four paths simultaneously? Don't forget he's only a first-year student." Dai Yuxuan suddenly seemed to have found a loophole and said confidently. "I already said he's a prodigy." How can a prodigy be compared to a normal person?
"Yes, Shi Jia's creative talent is very, very strong." Cheng Zi didn't know how to describe it, only that her aunt Cheng Ning seemed a little dazed when talking about him.

Creative designers are a profession on par with spirit mediums. Of course, this refers to the truly gifted creative designers. The average creative designer's status is only slightly better than that of the general public.

Liu Zhan was puzzled. How did she know so much?

"In that case, those of you who want to change your spirit weapons should go to junior Shi Jia to have them custom-made." Lu Tianxue didn't think much of Shi Jia's creative talent, because it didn't seem to help the team. Of course, spirit weapons were an exception.

"Captain, since this junior is so amazing, why don't we sign another contract with him?" Dai Yuxuan persisted.

"Who's going to pay for the extra crystals?" Lu Tianxue asked before leaving.

"Huh? Do we need to pay extra crystals?" Dai Yuxuan asked, puzzled. The crystals they were being given were already several times more than what the team members had received.

Liu Zhan actually agreed with Dai Yuxuan's words, but the fact was that it was impossible. He said, "Do you know how many crystals it costs for Junior Brother Shi Jia to materialize a spiritual weapon?"

"200 Azure Crystals".

“Yeah, where are you going to get 200 Azure Crystals?” Liu Zhan said, then turned and left.

Dai Yuxuan suddenly realized, but in his heart he felt even more contempt for Shi Jia. In his opinion, it was a blessing for them to join the Qinglan team, so how could they not give 100% for the team?
A look of disdain crossed his face. "Ha, so he's just a profit-driven guy. No wonder he demanded several times the pay to join the team. No way, I have to talk to the captain. He's not the only Spirit Master..."

Watching Dai Yuxuan's departing figure, Huang Qi and Chen Yinong exchanged a glance, both seeing the other's speechlessness.

Do you think he'll get beaten up by the captain?

“Wrong, you should say the captain will beat him up a few times,” Huang Qi said.

"Go and have a look."

"Walk."

Cheng Zi was the only one left in the training room, but after a moment, she turned off the lights and left.

Shi Jia, exhausted after finishing another practical assessment for a professional course, left the classroom with a "thump."

"I'm sorry, I didn't notice. Are you alright?" Shi Jia looked apologetically at the girl in front of her.

"It's okay, I'm Cheng Zi."

"Oranges?" Shi Jia blinked, as if she had heard the name somewhere before.

"Yes, I am a spirit mage from the Azure Blue Team." Cheng Zi took out a paintbrush, and the jade brush wrote two words in the air before fading away.

"Oh, it's Cheng Zi." Shi Jia suddenly realized. "What do you need me for? Is it about the team?" He had already told Lu Tianxue that he was busy preparing for exams and would officially join the team after the finals.

Cheng Zi shook her head. "It's not about the team, it's that I need to talk to you."

"Oh, is there something you need from me?" Shi Jia asked, puzzled. It seemed like this was the first time he had met this girl.

“I would like to ask you to customize a magical artifact,” Cheng Zi said.

"Customized spirit artifacts? Sorry, I have to finish the orders I have before I can take on new custom orders." In fact, Captain Cong Xing of the Blazing Flame Team had already informed him.

“I know, I'd like to get in line with you first, and I'm not ordering a spirit sword, but a spirit whip.” (End of Chapter)
