Don't try to cultivate immortality; mortals live longer than immortals.

As he said this, a thought flashed through Duan Xuan's mind. He remembered that when they were in the Azure Sky Cultivation World, Jiang Yaoguang had said that she spent her free time in the library and was very knowledgeable. Perhaps this girl really had a way?

In that case, there's no need to consult Teacher Tang.

After all, compared to the homeroom teacher, Fairy Yaoguang, with whom he had once shared life and death, was more familiar and more trustworthy.

"Yes, I'm here to help."

Jiang Yaoguang smiled slightly, but her tone remained calm and indifferent: "There's no need to ask the teacher about this. The school already has benefits. Foundation Establishment Pills aren't rare. The logistics department should have them. Students can just apply for them when they reach the peak of Qi Refining."

"That simple?"

Duan Xuan was momentarily stunned.

"Yes, it's clearly written in the admission notice, and the announcements on the campus network have always been there. It's your fault for not reading them," Jiang Yaoguang said irritably.

Duan Xuan was speechless. With the internet so readily available these days, why would he bother going to the campus forum? As for the admission notice, he thought it was nonsense and never even glanced at it. Little did he know he had overlooked something so important.

"Yaoguang, thank you so much." Duan Xuan's address became much more affectionate.

"It's okay, just buy me milk tea later."

Jiang Yaoguang waved her hand, showing great magnanimity.

As they talked, they headed towards the logistics department. When they passed a milk tea shop, Duan Xuan bought two cups of milk tea as instructed.

"Here you go, senior, this one's green grape flavored."

"Why are you calling me 'senior'?"

Jiang Yaoguang accepted the milk tea with a hint of surprise.

"Yes, it's a respectful way to address someone. Even though we're classmates, you know so much and often help me, so calling you 'senior' isn't a bad thing."

"You're so sweet-talking."

Jiang Yaoguang smiled radiantly; this answer made her feel very comfortable.

He couldn't help but marvel at how remarkable Duan was. Not only was his spiritual root talent extraordinary, but he was also incredibly cunning and resourceful, and even his speech was pleasant to listen to.

He is destined for great things!

The thought crossed Jiang Yaoguang's mind, and her eyes became somewhat dazed. Originally, she was forced to perform this task by the three gods because she was heavily in debt, and she was quite unwilling to do so.

But now that I think about it, that idea was really naive.

From another perspective, these three old monsters have given me a free opportunity to meet some big shots from the future!

As the saying goes, "being near the water tower makes it easy to get the moon first." If you can latch onto this powerful figure and forge a deep friendship with him, what will you have to fear in the future? You will surely possess endless potential for immortality.

That's right, that makes sense. We must get along well with Duan Xuan in the future.

"Hey, senior, what are you thinking about?"

Duan Xuan noticed that Jiang Yaoguang was standing there in a daze and became somewhat curious.

"It's nothing."

Jiang Yaoguang snapped out of her daze and denied it somewhat flusteredly. To cover up her embarrassment, she quickly lowered her head and took a sip of milk tea.

His expression froze for a moment.

The silky smoothness and spiritual energy of this drink are clearly made from the third-tier spiritual plant "Dewy Immortal Grass". A cup of this costs a full twenty spirit coins on the market, which is not something an ordinary student can afford.

She subconsciously looked up and glanced at Duan Xuan across from her. He was casually sipping his drink, which, judging from the packaging, was just the cheapest basic version, without even a trace of spiritual energy.

Jiang Yaoguang's fingers paused, a warm smile appearing on her face: "Ah Xuan, what are you doing? Are you well-off? Why did you order such an expensive milk tea for me?"

"My senior has been helping me a lot, so it's only right to reciprocate."

Duan Xuan smiled slightly: "Although I am not rich, I can still afford a cup of milk tea. Besides, thanks to Senior Sister's help yesterday, and Zhou Ran's repayment of twenty spirit coins in interest, it is my pleasure to treat Senior Sister to milk tea."

"You...you..."

Jiang Yaoguang sighed: "Don't be so polite with me in the future. If you consider me one of your own, then don't speak to me like that."

"it is good."

Duan Xuan readily agreed: "If you feel bad about it, senior, you can treat me to a meal at the cafeteria later."

"You are beautiful."

Jiang Yaoguang spat out: "You think you can get a meal in exchange for a cup of milk tea? It's not that easy."

His tone unconsciously carried a hint of intimacy.

And so, after that little incident, the two became much closer without realizing it. They chatted and laughed as they continued walking, and soon arrived at the school's logistics department.

At this mealtime, there aren't many people in the logistics department's lobby. Only a few staff members in uniform are busy processing the spiritual materials and documents on the table, and a faint fragrance wafts in the air.

Jiang Yaoguang was clearly very familiar with the rules here. Without asking anyone for directions, she walked to a window, took out her student card, swiped it lightly, and her information immediately popped up on the screen.

Name, age, school registration...

Sitting behind the window was a senior female student, quite beautiful. She glanced up at Jiang Yaoguang, then at the light screen, and casually asked, "Excuse me, what business do you have here?"

"Hello, senior, we're here to apply for Foundation Establishment Pills." Jiang Yaoguang pointed to herself and Duan Xuan behind her, smiling sweetly, "We've both reached the peak of Qi Refining."

The senior student was stunned. A clear look of surprise appeared in her beautiful eyes. She couldn't help but look up and scan the light screen again.

The two are indeed from the freshman class.

She had been writing something, but then the pen tip couldn't help but poke at the paper, her voice tinged with disbelief: "Freshmen? No way! You've only been in school for a short time, and you've both already reached the peak of Qi Refining?"

It's no wonder the woman was taken aback. Although Shuiyun Daoyun Academy is the highest institution of learning on this planet, such a cultivation speed is truly astonishing.

"Hehe, we were lucky too."

Fairy Yaoguang gave a professional fake smile, but on the surface she gave people a feeling of warmth and comfort. After all, she was a Golden Core Ancestor, and dealing with this kind of situation was child's play for her.

The girl behind the window nodded, asked no more questions, tapped the touch panel on the desktop twice, and a palm-sized ultra-thin detection terminal popped out from the side and was pushed through the window.

"Just place your palm on the sensor area, and the spiritual energy fluctuations will be directly synchronized to the school administration system."

Jiang Yaoguang and Duan Xuan naturally had no objections and pressed the button one after the other. A light blue spiritual energy curve instantly appeared on the terminal screen, somewhat like a network speed test, and finally settled steadily at the "Tenth Level of Qi Refining" mark.

The senior student glanced at the data, nodded, and swiped her finger across the touchscreen, a faint smile appearing on her lips: "System authentication passed, cultivation level detection is fine, you are indeed in the late stage of Qi Refining, and according to the benefits for students of this school, you are eligible to receive Foundation Establishment Pills for free."
