After the night class end finish, Wang Qi is walking go to north side of the Xian Academy. He was not very sure the road, so he ask a senior new student for the way. Then after a bit time, he found the Refining Room.
When he reach there, Xiang Qi was already cleaning up the equipment. This true disciple from Burning Gold Valley saw junior brother come to find her and look a bit surprise: "Wang Qi? You come find me got what thing?"
And after Wang Qi explain his reason, she make almost same face with Mao Zimiao and Wang Zhenqi earlier. "One thousand merit point? You why not just go robbing?"
Wang Qi helpless put up both hand: "My cultivation not enough, robbing also cannot succeed lah."
"Also true… wait, then you mean if your cultivation strong then you will go robbing meh?"
Wang Qi never answer yes or no. Just smile smile only.
Xiang Qi hold her forehead: "Even Golden Core stage making life-bound magic weapon also no need so much merit point. You actually want buy what thing?"
"Books in the Library." Wang Qi answer honestly. This thing no need hide one.
Xiang Qi show suspicious face: "What book inside library so expensive one?"
Wang Qi explain the thing: "Actually, last night I was meditating, then one senior suddenly come out from void say he think I pleasing to eye. Then he give me one booklist. The ring old man say that senior maybe is a care-free stage powerhouse. He call himself Xi Bo Che."
"Xi Bo Che?" Xiang Qi wrinkle her eyebrow: "'Master of Calculation' Xi Bo Che?"
Wang Qi nod his head. Then Xiang Qi suddenly grab Wang Qi shoulder, look into his eye very serious. After some moment, she start laughing: "'Master of Calculation' Xi Bo Che! Hahaha, you say Master of Calculation guide you… AHAHAHA!"
Wang Qi just look her with face full of no expression. Like say, "I know already, sure like this reaction one." If in Earth, got one high school student say Nobel Prize winner teach him homework, people also sure laugh one.
Xiang Qi laugh long time then finally calm down: "This one is best joke I hear this month already… But I think you not come to tell joke only right? So, what is the real thing?"
Wang Qi look very serious at her. Then Xiang Qi see his face like this, suddenly confused: "You really come tell joke only meh?"
Wang Qi serious face break down: "Walao eh, how come my funny image go deep until like this? Can you think maybe I not joking one?"
Xiang Qi open eye wide: "Real one ah? You really got get 'Master of Calculation' guidance?"
"I say already just now la! Now only realise?"
Then Xiang Qi put her hand on Wang Qi forehead, use some mana feel feel: "No sign of madness… I also no hallucinate… So you really say true?"
Wang Qi cover face: "Your reaction too slow already, senior sis…"
Xiang Qi a bit embarrassed: "Sorry la… But this news… you really get Master of Calculation's guidance?"
Wang Qi shake head: "I also not confirm. That senior just say he is Xi Bo Che."
Then Xiang Qi start walking here walk there, face full of excited feeling: "You get Master of Calculation's guidance! Wah you really lucky la!"
Can see that she really happy for her friend.
Wang Qi blur blur: "Not like he pour power into me and make me top level master, you so happy for what?"
Xiang Qi quickly calm down: "See your attitude now, still humble, not arrogant, very good. But, you cannot look down Master of Calculation guidance oh. All method in world come from counting. Many cultivator stuck in bottleneck just because their math and their path no match. If got Master teach you, you can avoid a lot of wrong road."
Wang Qi say: "Senior only show road. Walking still need myself one."
In last life, he already know what kind of math tool need for research. So he not really excited like other people.
But also not mean that Xi Bo Che's booklist no use. Wang Qi not so familiar with this world's book. Xi Bo Che's taste very sharp, and recommend books is really what Wang Qi need. So this booklist actually save Wang Qi a lot effort.
Xiang Qi like Wang Qi this kind of mindset very much, praise him a bit. Wang Qi accept praise with humble, then show bitter face: "Guidance is good, but now I no have merit point la!"
Xiang Qi think think: "This is long term issue. Maybe you wait… wait, why you look me like that?"
See her suddenly become defensive, Wang Qi sigh: "Can lend me a bit or not?"
Xiang Qi shake head until neck pain: "Totally cannot! After I mentor this year student finish, I need go back sect prepare for Golden Core breakthrough. This merit point I save very hard one. You ask me sacrifice my future help you meh?"
Life-bound magic weapon will grow with cultivation. Earlier make is better. And also affect future forming Primordial Spirit. Cannot play play.
Wang Qi also no so thick skin. Ask people help is ok, but ruin their future is too much. So he start think ask other cultivator.
Xiang Qi see through his mind, shake head: "Most cultivator same like you. Merit point very tight one. Even got can lend, maybe only ten or twenty. Big master level only will relax a bit."
Wang Qi say: "But Brother Su always very generous one."
"Even if got million stone spirit energy in spirit pool, also maybe no have merit point." Xiang Qi shake head: "Now exchange rate is one merit point = 2000 stone spirit energy. But Xian Alliance don't let people use spirit energy change merit point one. On street, even give 20,000 spirit stone, people also maybe don't give you 1 merit point."
Zhen Chanzi suddenly interrupt: "2000 and 20,000? This gap too big already. And normal Qi Practicing cultivator got like 50,000 worth spirit energy…"
Xiang Qi roll her eye, look him like look mountain boy: "Spirit energy got what use?"
"Of course can… shorten…" halfway talking, Zhen Chanzi shut up.
Ancient method need spirit stone to absorb spirit energy. So spirit stone got value.
But New Method cultivate by breathing world energy, from outside sky, the purest kind. They don't want spirit stone one.
Then Zhen Chanzi try again: "But still can use for array, alchemy, equipment forging. Can save own mana, then got more time cultivate."
Wang Qi shake head: "Old man, you forget already ah. New Method cultivator to maintain mind intent, got three stage press down cultivation. Save time no meaning."
For Ancient cultivator, spirit stone is must have, like rice and bread. No it, cannot survive.
For New Method cultivator, spirit energy like water electricity gas. Got it more convenient. No it also can live.
But then Wang Qi think another strange thing: Who use water electricity gas to buy thing at shop?
Xiang Qi next sentence answer this puzzle: "Actually hundred year ago, Xian Alliance already can extract spirit energy from sky through breathing technique. Now still got people use spirit energy buy sell, just to prevent Xian Path from collapse only."
