Chapter 2 : Supreme Cultivation Technique Evolution Card
“Yes, I definitely will!”
Zhou Hao was overjoyed. Just as he was about to purchase the mystery box, he realized that he was out of money!
At the lowest price, a single mystery box was equivalent to 10 Heaven Dao coins!
Heaven Dao coins were extremely precious. Zhou Hao had previously borrowed 10,000 Chinese yuan from Xu Ling. Other than buying the Qi Amalgamation Pill, Zhou Hao had exchanged the remaining 3,000 yuan for only 30 Heaven Dao coins..
In other words, the ratio of yuan to Heaven Dao coins was 100: 1.
“Where can I get another 1,000 yuan?”
Zhou Hao was worried. It was impossible for him to ask Xu Ling again as he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
And he was even more unwilling to ask his parents for money.
This was because Zhou Hao’s parents were already working very hard. Every day, they woke up early and worked late at night to provide for him to go to school and cultivate. They didn’t even have much time to rest.
After thinking about it, he decided that his only option was to borrow money from his classmates whom he was familiar with. At this thought, he immediately made a call.
“Hey, Old Wei, can you lend me some money?”
“How much?” Zheng Wei asked casually. His family background was not bad and he had good relations with Zhou Hao.
Zhou Hao hurriedly said, “1,000 yuan.”
Zheng Wei: “Ah, Hao’zi, I have to deal with something, talk to you later!”
Zhou Hao was speechless, but he understood. After all, 1,000 yuan was a lot of money for students.
After that, he called a few classmates.
The result was the same.
No one was willing to lend him money.
Zhou Hao’s heart sank. If he couldn’t borrow money, then he could only get a loan. However, he was only a student, and it would be very difficult for him to do so.
Zhou Hao glanced at the last classmate’s phone number.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally called.
“Hao’zi? What’s the matter?” A cough came from the other end of the line.
Zhou Hao whispered, “Hey, Zhang Yi, do you happen to have any money?”
The other party was silent.
Just when Zhou Hao thought that Zhang Yi would hang up like the other students, Zhang Yi replied, “Hao’zi, did you encounter some difficulties?”
“Yes, it’s a little difficult,” Zhou Hao lied.
“How much do you need?”
“1,000 will do.”
Once again, the other party was silent.
After noticing this, Zhou Hao immediately said, “If it’s too difficult, then forget it. I’ll think of another way.”
He knew that Zhang Yi’s family also struggled to make money. After all, 1,000 yuan was almost two months’ worth of food and cultivation.
Actually, Zhou Hao had regretted asking Zhang Yi the moment he called Zhang Yi.
“Sure, where are you? I’ll go over and give it to you now.”
Zhang Yi’s words surprised and ashamed Zhou Hao, but he still decided to take a gamble. He took a deep breath and said, “I’m still in school.”
“Alright, I’ll be there soon.”
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Hao felt touched. He did not expect Zhang Yi to actually lend him money.
About half an hour later, Zhang Yi arrived.
He was wearing an old school uniform and looked exhausted.
When he saw Zhou Hao, he immediately took out some crumpled yuan from his school uniform pocket.
This version of the Chinese currency was made with a new type of energy after Planet Earth had undergone great changes. The paper wouldn’t crease easily unless one held it for a long time.
Zhou Hao wanted to say that he would return the money as soon as possible, but the words were stuck in his mouth and he could only say thank you.
“It’s nothing. We’re all classmates, after all.” Zhang Yi smiled.
Zhou Hao could not help but ask, “Will you be alright after lending me the money?”
Zhang Yi shrugged his shoulders indifferently. “I’m fine. We can work part-time in the cafeteria. At the very least, I won’t starve to death. Since you need it urgently, go ahead and use it first. Everyone has their difficulties.”
Zhou Hao did not know what to say and could only thank him repeatedly.
After separating from Zhang Yi, he took a bus back to his rented house.
Since his parents were not around, Zhou Hao went to wash his face first. After sorting out his emotions, he walked to his room and opened the Heaven Dao software.
“Success or failure depends on this!”
Zhou Hao opened the mystery box page in the shop section. He took a deep breath and clicked on “purchase coins”!
Swoosh.
The 1,000 yuan in his hand disappeared.
At the same time, the number of Heaven Dao coins on the virtual screen increased by 10.
After scanning the luck points, he muttered to himself, “It will all depend on this!”
Taking a deep breath, he skillfully purchased a mystery box.
“Do you want to open the mystery box?”
“Yes!”
Zhou Hao’s tone was firm. At this point, he naturally would not hesitate.
Whoosh!
The one million luck points were instantly depleted.
Then, the mystery box moved. It spun for a moment before opening up like a gift box.
“Ding! Congratulations on opening the mystery box and obtaining a rare-level Supreme Cultivation Technique Evolution Card. This item has been placed into your backpack. Please take note!”
“Rare-level item?” Zhou Hao’s eyes widened and his heart skipped a beat.
At the same time, a public announcement appeared on the Heaven Dao software!
“Ding! Congratulations user xx for opening a rare-level item in the mystery box—Supreme Cultivation Technique Evolution Card. User may evolve his or her cultivation technique to perfection!”
In an instant, all the users were in an uproar.
“What the f*ck, this is cheating!!”
“Rare-level item, and I can even use it to evolve my cultivation technique. My luck is simply off the charts!”
“I don’t know whether I should be envious or jealous. Why couldn’t it have been me!”
“F*ck, I’ve already opened more than 300 mystery boxes. Let alone rare-level cultivation techniques, I haven’t even seen any rare-level weapons. I’ve only gotten a bunch of roses and Heaven Dao coins, I feel like vomiting!”
“…”
