Chinese Superman

A moment later, in the penthouse presidential suite.

Gu Zhi Qiu had already taken off her coat and cargo pants, and was wearing a simple white fitted short-sleeved shirt, paired with a light pink cotton athletic shorts, looking fresh and neat.

She walked barefoot on the soft, thick carpet to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, quietly gazing at the night view for a moment before turning around, sitting down on the sofa with a slightly languid air, and casually flipping through the hotel brochure on the coffee table.

On the other side, Xia Xinghan looked around, surveying the luxuriously decorated but somewhat outdated living room and bedrooms.

"Is this the presidential suite?"

"It's quite big."

"Wow, this rooftop viewing balcony is great, and there's even an outdoor swimming pool next to it. It's perfect for hosting parties!"

Xia Xinghan opened the glass door leading to the viewing balcony, her eyes sparkling, letting the cold, fierce wind from the high-rise rush into the room.

In his previous life, as an ordinary college student, this was his first time staying in a presidential suite, which was quite novel to him.

But this novelty wore off quickly.

Xia Xinghan closed the glass sliding door, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked down at the night view of the bustling area of ​​Shicheng.

The night was as dark as ink, but under the light, it was not deep, but rather hazy and indistinct, like a starry river painting unfolding before us. The traffic flowed like streams of light, and the neon lights shimmered like colorful diamonds.

Compared to the outdated and conservative decor, the high price of this presidential suite is probably due to its location and view.

Gu Zhi Qiu looked up at Xia Xing Han's small figure, a smile appearing on his usually cool face, his voice tinged with a hint of teasing: "Junior brother, have you seen enough? It's time to take a shower and go to bed."

"Or... do you need your senior sister to help you wash?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Xinghan turned his head, his fair face slightly flushed, and muttered softly, "Well... it's not impossible..."

"Dream on."

Gu Zhi Qiu withdrew her gaze and returned it to her phone.

"Sister Lin is right. A woman's words are deceitful. The more beautiful a woman is, the less you can trust her."

Xia Xinghan pursed his lips, completely unconcerned, and went to find the bathroom.

When he finished showering and came out wearing the children's bathrobe provided by the hotel, with his head of wet black hair, Gu Zhi Qiu was no longer in the living room. The sound of dripping water came from another bathroom.

Xia Xinghan took a bottle of soda from the refrigerator, drank it, and sat down on the sofa to examine the communication bracelet that Qian Lao had given him.

The bracelet has a matte black finish and a smooth, warm feel, making it look like a high-tech sports watch.

He turned on the screen, and the soft blue light illuminated his slightly damp face.

The screen interface is simple, with a few function icons.

This includes maps, music, health information, video calls, holographic projection, and more.

The most important of these is an app engraved with the ancient seal script character "执" (zhí, meaning "to hold" or "to grasp") – the official Zhiqizhe platform.

According to Qian, this platform is the hub for the official statistics and coordination of domestic organ practitioners resources in Xia State.

In the private sector, anyone whose lost property is chosen to be its owner can register it.

After registering, you can accept various tasks issued by the state or local governments on the platform and earn "contribution points".

Contribution points are the platform's core currency, which can be exchanged for secular money, spirit stones, cultivation manuals, and so on.

In addition, money cannot be exchanged for contribution points.

Xia Xinghan tapped his account.

After the page loads, his personal profile information is displayed:

Name: Wang Nezha

Age: 6

Gender: Male

[Level of Instrument Holder: Class B Instrument Holder (Class B Holder)]

[Cultivation Realm: Mortal Transformation Realm, Fifth Heaven]

[Registered Relic: Three Abundances and Nine Auspicious Symbols Lock Ornament]

Total number of tasks completed: 0

Current contribution points: 0

[Linked account balance: 1,000,000.00 yuan]

Six years old?

Transcendent Realm?

Xia Xinghan laughed. Apart from the gender and belongings being correct, none of the information on the personal homepage was true.

If someone were to obtain his publicly available information, they would likely be completely fooled.

Finally, when he saw that striking string of numbers, he couldn't help but blink.

One million?!

Xia Xinghan immediately understood that the money must have been deposited into his account by Grandpa Qian under the guise of "initial funds" or "task advance," and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

In his past life, he had student loans, but who would have thought that he would become a millionaire at the age of three in this life?

Although he knew that in the extraordinary world where spiritual energy was reviving, the value of worldly money was limited, this sentiment was different.

"Senior Sister!"

Xia Xinghan raised his voice slightly towards the bathroom: "How much money do you have in your weapon wielder's account?"

A moment later, Gu Zhi Qiu's voice came through the door: "I haven't noticed, there shouldn't be many."

Then the sound of the shower stopped, she finished showering, glanced at her phone, and replied, "A little over 100,000."

One hundred thousand?

Xia Xinghan, comparing the one million in his account with a touch of pride, said with a smile, "Senior sister, I'll take care of you from now on!"

There was a moment of silence in the bathroom, then the door was pulled open a crack.

Gu Zhi Qiu had already changed into her pajamas. Her short hair was slightly messy, and she was tall with long, beautiful legs. Her daytime competence and sassiness had been replaced by the laziness and charm of being at home.

She leaned against the doorframe, looking at him with a half-smile: "Quite the boast. Do you know how much it costs to raise a heirloom?"

"Uh..." Xia Xing was speechless.

Stephen Chow, do girls like to answer like this?

Gu Zhi Qiu was just joking, and then asked, "How many contribution points do you have?"

"zero."

Xia Xinghan answered honestly.

"What about you, senior sister?"

"Around five thousand points." Gu Zhi Qiu's tone was calm, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Five thousand points?!

Xia Xinghan stared in surprise.

According to the official exchange rate of 1 contribution point to 10,000 yuan of worldly money, 5,000 points is 50 million! His millionaire status is nothing compared to Gu Zhi Qiu, who has half of a "small goal".

"So, you're the real hidden millionaire, Senior Sister!" he exclaimed in surprise.

"A rich woman?" Gu Zhiqi raised an eyebrow slightly and shook his head. "This amount of contribution points is simply not enough."

She patiently explained, "The greatest use of contribution points is not to exchange them for money, but to exchange them for cultivation resources."

"If you're really short of money, just exchange it for spirit stones and sell them on the black market."

Xia Xinghan nodded.

He knew that, of course; only a fool would directly convert contribution points into cash.

"On the platform, 10 contribution points are needed to exchange for 1 standard spirit stone. My 5,000 contribution points would only amount to 500 spirit stones if I exchanged them all."

"For cultivators at the Innate Realm, five hundred spirit stones are just a drop in the ocean if they want to stabilize and improve their realm."

"So doing tasks and earning contribution points is the daily routine for all weapon wielders who want to improve," Gu Zhi Qiu said calmly.

At the beginning of the spiritual revival, the country made advance arrangements by acquiring "glowing stones".

Therefore, even though some information about the revival of spiritual energy has been made public, most spirit stones are still controlled by the Xia Kingdom, followed by aristocratic families and financial groups.

The most reliable way for ordinary weapon wielders to obtain spirit stones is to become an official weapon wielder, earn contribution points by completing tasks, and then exchange them for cultivation resources.

In this way, even though the Xia Kingdom had a rich history and numerous relics, and even if a large number of people wielded these weapons, it would not lead to social unrest or an inability to maintain peace and order.
