Douluo Continent: Kunxu Descends, Second-Player Players Are Stunned

"Stop dawdling, hurry up and take the student loan, get ready to go shopping."

The ghost saw that the clock on the wall was approaching five o'clock and knew that it was almost time for it to leave work.

If you're not proactive about leaving get off work, there's something wrong with your mindset!

"Oh!" Bibi Dong knew she had to buy some whale glue to refine her body, so she didn't waste any more time here. She picked up the nine hundred gold soul coins that Wang Erxu had placed on the table and followed the ghost towards the commercial street.

As Bibi Dong ran out of the academy, she heard the academy's clock tower chime once.

She looked up and saw the pointer pointing to a "V," and a question suddenly popped into her mind—

One shichen (時辰) equals two hours.

Why do some people calculate time in "hours" while others calculate it in "hours"?

Currency and weights and measures have been standardized, so why hasn't anyone standardized the unit of time?

For a fleeting moment, Bibi Dong felt that this world was somewhat unreal, but she didn't know how to tell. Before she could even lose her senses, Gui Mei grabbed her and flew directly to the Spirit Hall's largest herbal medicine shop.

Do you have whale gelatin?

"Yes, we have it." The shopkeeper walked to the medicine cabinet, stood on tiptoe, reached out and pulled out the top drawer, and took it down.

Unrefined whale glue carries a fishy smell reminiscent of the seaside. Hundreds of years old whale glue is mostly translucent with a slightly yellowish color, and some may have faint gray spots due to impurities; thousands of years old whale glue is mostly golden yellow with a clear luster, and some may have weathered into gray.

The boss separated these different types of whale glue.

"A fresh piece of this kind, aged 100 years, will cost at least 300 gold soul coins, depending on the size. Those with a few gray spots will be cheaper, around 200 gold soul coins."

"This fresh, thousand-year-old whale glue is quite expensive, costing nearly two thousand gold soul coins, but here are a few pieces that have spoiled, which I can sell to you cheaply. The smaller pieces are only 600 gold soul coins."

Bibi Dong remembered that whale glue must be refined with soul power before it could be consumed. These gray spots were impurities in the whale glue and did not affect its aphrodisiac effects. In other words, it would not affect the body-refining effect.

However, the outer shell of these ancient whale glues has turned gray, indicating that their medicinal properties have weakened.

She has just started cultivating and her body is relatively weak. She cannot absorb whale glue with strong medicinal power for the time being. It would be best to choose some that has deteriorated.

"Uncle, I'd like a small piece of grayish-brown millennium whale glue, and two pieces of century-old whale glue with gray spots. One is a century-old piece, and the other is a small one. Could you give me a discount and charge me 900 gold soul coins?"

The shopkeeper didn't reply, but instead counted on his fingers for a moment before offering a price: "920 gold soul coins, that's the lowest I can go!"

This girl is only six years old, and has probably just awakened her soul power. The fact that she has a platinum-level bishop as her mentor indicates that she has exceptional talent. She is wearing a soul guide ring on her hand, worth at least 100,000 gold soul coins, but she did not choose the highest quality whale glue, which means that this bishop is not her elder. She has signed a special contract with the Spirit Hall and also obtained a batch of resources.

According to the rules of the Martial Soul Academy, she should have received a student loan of 1000 gold soul coins.

She quoted 900, explaining that she bought the "Highlights" booklet published by the school.

In conclusion, she has a high loan amount, but is currently in a tight financial situation.

We still have a batch of high-end goods on hand...

Hmm, a fat sheep ready to be slaughtered!

Bibi Dong hesitated for a moment. She only had 940 gold soul coins in her soul guide ring. Although she could afford the price, she needed to save money for food!

Although Martial Soul Academy has a free cafeteria, what good stuff can you expect for free?

Soul Masters must supplement their diet to improve their abilities.

The meat of those hundred-year-old soul beasts, rich in energy, can enhance the physique of low-level soul masters, and they are not cheap.

"Ugh, why do we need money for everything? Why is this world so stingy!"

The ghost was getting impatient: "It's not like you can't afford it, can you hurry up!"

Don't delay his time off work.

The boss was stunned. This doesn't make sense!

He's so experienced at swindling people, how come he suddenly messed up today?

Bibi Dong reluctantly took out her money and bought the three whale glues.

The ghost grabbed the person and the whale glue, and flew into the academy at the speed of light, arriving at the dormitory office.

"I'll refine it for you now. You can take it when you get back to your dorm."

"Where is my dormitory?" Having lived for sixty years, this was the first time Bibi Dong had ever squeezed into a dormitory, and she didn't even know how to check in.

The ghost pointed behind her: "There."

Bibi Dong turned around and saw an auntie eating a boxed lunch, enjoying it immensely.

"Gurgle~"

My stomach started growling uncontrollably.

The ghost didn't care; he simply used his soul power to condense soul fire and melted the whale glue. Soon, the impurities evaporated in the high temperature, leaving three clumps of golden glue.

He took out three jade boxes from his soul tool and put three clumps of gel inside.

"The one on the far left is a thousand-year-old one, and the other two boxes are a hundred-year-old one. There's a jade spoon in your soul tool that you can use to scoop out whale glue. Take one spoonful for the first time, and I'll check on the effect tomorrow."

"Remember, only use the jade spoon! Using spoons made of other materials will contaminate the medicinal properties of the whale glue! Remember to clean the jade spoon thoroughly before using it!"

After saying that, the ghost ran away.

Off work, off work, going to find Old Chrysanthemum~

Bibi Dong silently put the box into her soul tool and went to the student affairs manager to check in.

"A six-person room?" The dormitory supervisor looked a little strange. How could the girl who could command the Platinum Bishop be treated like this?

Could it be that some rich kid has never experienced hardship and wants to experience communal living?

Don't they know that the poor and the rich are actually two different species?

Even if poor people get student loans, they still have to tighten their belts to afford a decent meal.

Rich people don't need these things at all.

If you stay here too long... won't you become corrupted?

The birth attendant shook her head, as if she could already see the girl's future of going astray.

"103, you're the only one here right now. The college won't officially start classes for another month. If you feel bored, you can go upstairs and chat with the senior students who are staying on campus."

The dormitory supervisor crouched down to get the spare dormitory key and pulled out a few locks. Since her attention wasn't on them, she simply tossed the small items onto the table.

Bibi Dong asked curiously, "What is this? I've never seen anything like it before!"

"This is for male Soul Masters." The dormitory supervisor, treating Bibi Dong like a six-year-old child, smiled kindly and explained, "In order to improve learning efficiency and prevent early romantic relationships, the academy requires all male students to wear the Dragon-Binding Lock before enrollment. It can only be removed after they turn 20 so that they can concentrate on their cultivation."

"But rules are rigid, but people are flexible, and there will always be people who want to secretly pick locks."

"That's why I've prepared a few copies, just in case those bad students try to seduce you."

As she spoke, the paternity nurse took out a bottle of medicine and raised an eyebrow at Bibi Dong.

"Want to buy some medicine? One pill a month, one pill lasts a month! An indestructible membrane, guaranteed no one can get in! It can also suppress emotions and prevent you from getting all horny from bad men!"

"It's very cheap, only one gold soul coin per piece!"

Bibi Dong was dumbfounded.

No, with the Dragon-Trapping Lock and the Vajra Medicine, could this world be any more defying the heavens?

"Auntie, I'm going to the cafeteria first!"

Regardless of where the cafeteria was, Bibi Dong took off running, afraid that she would be corrupted by this evil world—she was thinking of getting a copy of the Dragon-Trapping Lock for Xiao Gang!

The maternity ward was suddenly left alone, looking somewhat bewildered: "Won't she realize I'm selling fake medicine? Will she report me?"

Bibi Dong, who was still using her divine sense to spy on him, thought of the whale glue in the soul tool...

Wow, you can do that?!
