In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 74 A 9.9 Yuan Meal Box

"What the heck, a boxed lunch from the dean?"

Inside the Sun and Moon Royal Academy, teachers, whether they were conducting research or taking a break, all received boxed lunches from the Dean.

"Is Dean Jing researching a new soul tool for cooking, and he wants us to try the taste?"
"I must say, it actually looks pretty good, much better than my soul tool."

"Let's leave it for now, I'm busy doing experiments."

"Take it away, take it away, I don't eat beef."

……

Most teachers accepted the money; after all, they had to give the dean face.

Apart from a few old fogies, they rely on their seniority and status to disregard Jing Hongchen.

No matter where you go, small groups will always form in crowded places.

But Jing Hongchen is no saint.

Jing Hongchen: Not going to eat? Then don't eat it anymore.

……

The other small shops received a batch of boxed meals from the cafeteria and didn't have any objections.

In the past, when the cafeteria made too much pre-cooked food and couldn't sell it all, they would send it to the convenience store.

However, apart from the younger students who missed the mealtime, very few people would buy it.

So in most cases, the shop owner eats some of it himself and sells the rest at a low price elsewhere.

The convenience store on the west side of the college has seen a significant increase in business since the convenience store on the east side was converted into a coffee shop. This convenience store, which is closer to the teaching buildings, has been doing much better business.

The goods, which were originally intended to be sold for a whole day, were almost sold out before the afternoon.

Just as the shop owner returned from getting the goods from the warehouse, he saw the staff from the college cafeteria delivering ten boxed meals.

How much is one box?

Because we've collected them before, and the college cafeteria offers fair prices, we can still make a profit even if we sell them at a low price elsewhere.

So the sensible shopkeepers would buy it.

Of course, someone who doesn't know any better wouldn't be able to keep running a convenience store in such a large college.

"These boxed meals are free, but when selling them to students, we must remind them that Soul Masters below Level 2 are prohibited from eating them."

The cafeteria worker who delivered the boxed meals left after saying those words.

Although the amount of food in a boxed meal is not much, it is still the meat of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast. If a soul master below the Great Soul Master level eats it, his body may not be able to withstand the enormous energy and thus suffer damage.

If it weren't for the fact that Soul Masters generally have high drug tolerance due to consuming pills from a young age, Jing Hongchen would even think that the scope of those prohibited from consuming pills should be raised to Soul Masters below level three.

"Soul Masters below Level 2 are prohibited from consuming this?"

"What's in this lunchbox? Could they have added something weird to it?"

The owner of this convenience store is a level 45 Soul Master, and is not among those prohibited from consuming certain foods.

So, while the boxed lunch was still hot from the delivery, the shop owner immediately opened one of the boxes.

"Stewed beef with potatoes, scrambled eggs with onions, crispy fried pork, and a stir-fried vegetable dish."

That's quite a lot.

The ingredients are top-notch, and there's even meat from a thousand-year-old soul beast.

This boxed lunch must cost at least several dozen gold soul coins.

Wait, this beef is actually the meat of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!
Just three pieces of beef are probably worth more than one hundred gold soul coins.

Oh well, since it's a boxed lunch delivered from the college cafeteria and they didn't charge me.

If it's too expensive, the students won't be able to afford it, so let's just set the price at 9.9 gold soul coins.

Unlike the royal academies of other empires, when recruiting students, the Sun Moon Royal Academy does not place much emphasis on the student's innate soul power, that is, the so-called talent in soul master, as long as the student has talent in soul tools.

Therefore, many students at the Sun Moon Royal Academy are commoners with no background. If it weren't for Tang San's scheme, among the many academies on the continent, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy would definitely be the most suitable for Huo Yuhao, and the Body Sect would be the most suitable sect for him to join.

You ask if the aristocratic class isn't afraid of the Sun Moon Empire's way of cultivating commoners?

The reason why other empires oppressed the common people so much was because ten thousand years ago, they were almost overthrown by the Spirit Hall, which represented the power of commoner soul masters.

In order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, they have suppressed ordinary soul masters so much that they have even reached the embarrassing situation where those who are unwilling to be their slaves cannot even awaken their martial souls.

But for the Sun Moon Empire, whether nobles or commoners, they all have only one goal: to plant the flag of the Sun Moon Empire in every corner of the Douluo Continent.

Judging from the current situation, although nobles also look down on commoners, the Soul Masters representing the nobles and the Soul Masters representing the commoners are in a state of cooperation and mutual benefit.

Of course, when the external expansion completely ends, the conflict between noble soul masters and commoner soul masters will also fully erupt.

……

"Boss, what are you eating? It smells delicious."

Chen Fei, a trainee who had just finished his research work, smelled a special fragrance as soon as he entered the convenience store.

Student: What kind of meal kit smells so good? How much technology must have been added to it?

"There are nine boxed lunches left from the college cafeteria. Would you like one?"

"Food from the cafeteria?"

Upon hearing the words "college cafeteria," Chen Fei felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

Especially the last time I went to eat there, because the cooking device malfunctioned, a rat's head appeared in a plate of spicy stir-fried duck necks.

When Chen Fei ate that rat head that looked like a duck neck, he vomited so badly that he didn't go to the college cafeteria for more than two months.

For everyday meals, I either go to my mentor's place and use his cooking soul tool. (If you use your mentor's soul tool, then your mentor will use it too!)
Or they would go to a convenience store and buy instant noodles or other fast food.

Therefore, after the shopkeeper said the boxed lunches were from the cafeteria, Chen Fei immediately lost the desire to buy one to try.

[Chen Fei, where the hell have you been?]

Just as Chen Fei was deciding which instant noodles to have for dinner, he suddenly received a message from his mentor.

Upon seeing this, Chen Fei quickly replied.

[Brother Xuan, I'm at the convenience store.]

Bring me lunch.

[Brother Xuan, where's your cooking soul tool?]

[Nonsense! You ruined it last night! I haven't had a chance to fix it today, and I haven't even had dinner yet!]

Xuan Ziwen is indeed a teacher at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, but he is currently in the laboratory, and the lunchbox was delivered to his office, so he naturally did not receive it.

Okay, Brother Xuan, I'll be right back.

"Boss, a boxed lunch, please."

Even if I don't eat it myself, I can give it to my supervisor.

Besides, how expensive can a boxed meal be?

"Okay, classmate, there are 10 gold soul coins in total."

After Chen Fei put all the things he bought into the bag, the shop owner quoted the price.

"How much? I'll have a pack of instant noodles and a drink, and that'll cost 10 gold coins?"
"Boss, is your instant noodles made of gold, or is your drink made of gold?"

"A boxed lunch costs 9.9 gold soul coins, while instant noodles and a drink together cost 1 silver soul coin."

"Sigh~"

Chen Fei eventually made the payment.

Chen Fei: Brother Xuan should reimburse me, right?
