The next morning, Ye Chen was bored out of his mind and was lying on the sofa watching a movie.

"Ring ring—"

Ye Chen's phone rang, and Zheng Qiuyue's voice came through the call.

Zheng Qiuyue is Su Yu's secretary's full name.

"Ye Chen, your thirteen [Power Gems] have been exchanged. I'll bring them to you later, but the potion might take a few more days to arrive."

"Okay, let's not rush the medicine. I shouldn't be at school for the next few days," Ye Chen said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Zheng."

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he hung up the phone and went to the yard to rest, while waiting for Sister Zheng to bring over the [Power Gem].

Ye Chen opened his Ancient Capital University APP and found that he only had less than 900,000 credits left.

I couldn't help but gasp; these credits really weren't enough.

Generally speaking, an S-grade treasure is worth between 100,000 and 1,000,000 credits, and you can't just buy it if you have enough credits; you must be qualified to buy it.

Ye Chen was able to exchange for so many [Power Gems] only because of the qualification granted by Su Yu; otherwise, even if other students had enough credits, they wouldn't be able to exchange for so many [Power Gems].

The value of a Power Gem is almost double that of an Agility Gem, and Ye Chen has a total of five Agility Gems that he needs to exchange.

Ultimately, he only spent less than a million credits, which was also a preferential policy from the school.

Ye Chen had seen the efforts that Gudu University had made for him.

In the future, it will surely give back to the Ancient Capital University, enabling the Ancient Capital University to cultivate more outstanding individuals.

As for the freshman exchange competition in October, Ye Chen felt that he probably wouldn't be able to participate.

After all, by October, even he himself didn't know just how terrifying his strength would be.

The principal specially recruited him hoping that he could win first place in the freshman exchange competition for the Ancient Capital University.

But what if he's already advanced to the semi-saint level by October? He can't possibly still come and play against these kids...

I can only give back to the ancient capital university when I am wealthy.

Just like the Sword God, the [Experience Orb] he provided greatly benefited Ye Chen.

Although the Sword God's reward was given to the first place winner of the freshman trial, Ye Chen's acceptance of the reward can be seen as an investment from the Sword God.

If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay this favor.

However, considering that the Sword Saint was a semi-saint level expert, if he wanted to repay the favor, he would at least have to become a semi-saint level expert himself.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen clenched his fist and murmured, "My goal is not just the semi-saint level. Even the unknown realm above the semi-saint level, I will personally go and see it one day..."

...

A short while later, Zheng Qiuyue arrived at the entrance of Ye Chen's villa.

After handing over the thirteen [Power Gems] to Ye Chen, he bid him farewell and left.

As Su Yu's secretary, she still has many daily tasks to handle.

Ye Chen put the thirteen [Power Gems] into his backpack, bringing the total number of [Power Gems] in his backpack to nineteen.

Once the [Power Gem] is fused with equipment, it will lose its effect even if it is removed, so Ye Chen has to use it with caution.

Currently, apart from his weapon and necklace, the rest of his equipment is just ordinary Dark Gold-grade gear, which will easily become obsolete as he levels up.

"If I had a full set of mythical equipment, or even a growing set of mythical equipment, then I could confidently fuse the [Power Gem]."

Ye Chen thought to himself.

However, Ye Chen soon realized that the [Giant Spirit Potion] in the corner of his backpack had not been used yet, so he quickly took it out of his backpack.

I was in such a rush to get my ascension quest from the Temple of Ascension yesterday that I completely forgot about this.

Ye Chen opened the [Giant Spirit Potion], and a rich, refreshing fragrance instantly filled the air.

Ye Chen took a deep breath and poured the [Giant Spirit Potion] into his mouth, a refreshing cucumber flavor lingering in his mouth.

Ye Chen clearly felt that his strength had increased significantly again.

The Giant Spirit Potion can increase the Strength attribute by 100 points. Even though Ye Chen's Strength attribute is currently as high as 28,000, who would complain about having too little Strength?

Soon, Ye Chen returned to the living room and continued watching the movie.

...

At 2:30 pm, Ye Chen arrived at the teleportation hall of Ancient Capital University.

As soon as Ye Chen stepped into the teleportation hall, he saw a giant banner hanging in the empty hall.

The sign read: "Fight for humanity! Fight for the Dragon Kingdom! Fight for glory! Congratulations to all the students on their expedition on their triumphant return!"

Su Yu had already arrived at the bottom of the banner early on.

Ye Chen walked straight toward Su Yu.

"Dean Su, why are you here so early?"

"I came early to check if these kids will be late," Su Yu said casually.

Ye Chen smiled and continued, "Dean Su, what are the specific tactical arrangements for this expedition to the Origin Map?"

"The power of the World Boss is undeniable, so after we get there, our university team will cooperate with the military and even teams from other countries. The sole purpose is to take down the World Boss."

Upon hearing Su Yu's reply, Ye Chen fell into deep thought.

This time, he needs to kill at least four world bosses to reach the Origin map, which may be very inconvenient if it is a team operation.

Ideally, he could act alone and then raid world bosses of other races, which would be more efficient and allow the Dragon Kingdom to acquire more fortune.
