Mu Qian threw the cards in her hand heavily onto the table and walked back to her workstation in her high heels.

Gao Xue was so angry that she made a "Pah" gesture towards Mu Qian's back and immediately turned around to comfort her friend.

"Siyu, don't take it personally. Just do what you want to do."

Jiang Siyu silently picked up the card, rubbed it gently in her palm, and suddenly asked.

"Xiaoxue, do you also think that these cards are only suitable for ordinary classes? Students in the noble class can't accept them?"

"Uh..." Gao Xue hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to tell the truth, "Yes. You have never taught a noble class, so you can't imagine how difficult those students are. Most of the children in this summer camp are from the noble class. If you give them an R card, they might throw the card back in your face on the spot, so... it's better not to give it, but be cautious."

Jiang Siyu was silent for a while and nodded slightly.

“…Okay, I understand.”

***

dusk.

Jiang Siyu got off the bus carrying her bag and walked home against the afterglow of the setting sun.

Although the lesson plan had been organized as planned and some necessary preparations had been handled in an orderly manner, Mu Qian and Gao Xue's words during the day still dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Siyu, and her steps back home seemed a little heavy.

She couldn't help but take out another snack card from her pocket and looked at it carefully as she walked.

Because of her limited financial resources, Jiang Siyu rarely draws from the card pool and has little knowledge of cards. She knows that everyone is chasing after high-level cards, but she has tasted these two snacks herself and thinks they taste very good, not worse than the SR food cards she had the honor of tasting before, so she bought 200 of them without hesitation. Now that she thinks about it, maybe she is too amateurish and naive, it's a pity that these cards can't be used for the time being.

After school starts, I will teach the classes for the regular class and then distribute them to the children in the regular class... Jiang Siyu thought to comfort herself.

"Teacher Jiang?" A clear voice suddenly came from the side, "Oh, it's really you, Teacher."

Jiang Siyu turned her head and her originally furrowed brows suddenly relaxed into a smile.

"Xiao Lan, why are you here?"

Jiang Siyu was very familiar with the girl with a ponytail in front of her. She was a junior high school student she had taught before, named Su Xiaolan. The girl was a class committee member in the class. She seemed carefree and heartless, but in fact she was thoughtful and considerate. When Jiang Siyu first started teaching, she was a little bit unable to control the naughty children in the class. It was Su Xiaolan who helped her out. Jiang Siyu really liked this sensible girl.

"I'm going to look for my brother." Su Xiaolan smiled and pointed to the intersection ahead, "His card pool is on the second street ahead."

"oh……"

Jiang Siyu had heard about Su Xiaolan's family affairs, but knew it was inappropriate to ask further questions, so she gently touched her head as if to comfort her.

"It's not easy for you and your brother either... If you need any help, remember to tell us."

Su Xiaolan's smile was always bright: "Well, thank you Teacher Jiang, but we are fine, I believe everything will get better slowly!" Her eyes moved slightly downwards, and when she saw the cards in Jiang Siyu's hand that she had not yet put away, she couldn't help but blinked.

"Hey, Teacher Jiang, you also draw cards?" In her impression, Teacher Jiang seemed to have never been interested in the card pool.

"Oh, I bought this at the card store." Jiang Siyu looked down at the brand new cards in her hand, her tone carrying a hint of melancholy, "I originally prepared this for tomorrow's summer camp quality class, but..."

Realizing that she shouldn't complain to a student, Jiang Siyu stopped talking in time. Seeing that Su Xiaolan seemed very interested in the card, Jiang Siyu handed it to her.

“I’ll give you this card.”

“Eh?” Su Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, and quickly waved her hand, “No, no, I just looked a few more times out of curiosity…”

"Don't refuse, I still have a lot here." Jiang Siyu directly pulled the girl's hand and stuffed the card into her, "But the teacher has a request. After you finish eating, you must tell me what you think." If Su Xiaolan's reaction is good, she can safely distribute these cards to ordinary students who don't care much about the level of the cards.

Seeing that Jiang Siyu insisted on giving it to her, and that she was indeed very interested in the cards she had never seen before, Su Xiaolan finally accepted it and pulled her ponytail embarrassedly.

"Hehe...Thank you, Teacher Jiang."

The two talked as they walked, but because their destinations were in opposite directions, they had to separate at the first intersection.

"Goodbye, teacher. See you after school starts~!" Su Xiaolan waved with a smile.

"Um."

Jiang Siyu also waved her hand with a smile, and at the same time she felt in her heart: If Su Xiaolan's family hadn't had that kind of thing, she should have been able to participate in this year's summer camp...

***

Su Xiaolan hummed a song and kicked the pebbles on the roadside while walking towards her brother's card pool.

While crossing the road and waiting for the green light, she took out the card that Teacher Jiang had just given her because she was bored and looked at it carefully.

Although she is not a card user, influenced by her brother, she has her own set of evaluation criteria for the quality and level of cards. Generally, the quality of cards below SR level is not very good, but this R card is obviously better than the same period level, and it feels like it was drawn from a high-level card pool.

But she is familiar with the high-level card pools in Qixing City, but she has never heard that there is a snack card pool there?

Driven by curiosity, after crossing the road, Su Xiaolan couldn't help but swipe the card on the card reader on her wrist.

A brief flash of green light passed, and the card transformed into a small bag of snacks with cute animal biscuits painted on it. From the appearance of the packaging, it was no different from the biscuit snacks that could be found everywhere in the supermarket.

Su Xiaolan opened the package, picked up a small biscuit and put it into her mouth. After chewing it gently for a few bites, she was suddenly stunned.

Really...really delicious!

Is this really just an R card? It doesn't look like it at all!

Su Xiaolan hurriedly checked the packaging again, but unfortunately she did not see any information about the card pool in the attributes, which made her even more surprised - only the new card pool would not be able to mark the card pool information on the card, and this card actually came from a new card pool that had just been activated not long ago?

When did Qixing City have such a powerful card pool? Does my brother know about this?

Su Xiaolan was completely immersed in her thoughts, with a thousand thoughts running through her mind. Suddenly, a figure appeared at the corner in front of her, and she was so scared that she almost tripped and fell.

"ah--!"

When she saw clearly who was standing in front of her, Su Xiaolan suddenly felt like getting angry.

"Xiao Xiao! Are you a ghost?! What do you want to do by suddenly appearing?!"

"Nothing." The handsome young man, who was dressed in branded clothes from head to toe and obviously from a wealthy family, had a sly smile on his face and looked at the furious girl calmly, "I was just passing by here. You're not so arrogant as to tell me which way I take, are you?"

Su Xiaolan rolled her eyes in annoyance: I don’t believe you’re on the way. You live in Xicheng District, and this is Dongcheng District, okay!

Not wanting to bother with this ruffian, Su Xiaolan turned around with a cold face and planned to take a detour.

Unexpectedly, just after she took a step, her ponytail was pulled. She subconsciously raised her hand to hit him, but the bag of snacks in her hand was immediately snatched away by the other party.

"Xiao Xiao!" Su Xiaolan held her ponytail that was almost torn apart and glared at the boy, "You robber! Give me back my things!"

"What do you mean by your stuff?" Xiao Xiao shook the package in his hand with a half-smile, "This is obviously Teacher Jiang Siyu's, isn't it?"

Su Xiaolan was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief: “You followed us??”

"Who wants to follow you? I said I was just passing by - just passing by." The young man wrote lightly.

Fuck you! You stalker!

But this reminded Su Xiaolan, and she stared at Xiao Xiao, puzzled.

"Aren't you going to summer camp? Why are you back at this time?"

"It's time for you to come back." The boy shrugged and said sarcastically, "Who told you not to participate? Don't you have common sense?"

"Yeah." Su Xiaolan smiled with a fake smile, deliberately dragging out the tone, "My family is very poor now, unlike you, Master Xiao, who can attend as many summer camps as you want. Tsk tsk, there's no comparison."

The smile that had been on Xiao Xiao's lips suddenly froze, and his expression became more angry.

"It's your brother's fault for being so stupid. He refused to sell it even when so many people offered prices before. Now you are dumbfounded, right?" He said almost angrily. At the end, he paused slightly and muttered something in a voice that Su Xiaolan couldn't hear.

"… and now you are suffering with him."

"My brother did nothing wrong. It's not your turn as an outsider to point fingers." Su Xiaolan hated it most when others spoke ill of her brother in front of her, and her face suddenly darkened.

Not intending to waste any more time talking to this annoying guy, Su Xiaolan rushed over and was about to snatch the snacks from Xiao Xiao's hand, but her figure was too petite, and she could not compare to the taller and longer-legged Xiao Xiao, so she was easily stopped.

"Hey, hey, can you please have some backbone? It's just an R-rated junk snack. Why do you have to fight so hard for it?"

Xiao Xiao said it with disgust, but he reached into the snack bag very "honestly", took out a biscuit and put it into his mouth. Su Xiaolan was so angry when she saw this.

"Um?"

Xiao Xiao was startled for a moment, and subconsciously lowered his head to look at the bag in his hand again. The level marked in the lower right corner was clearly "R", but...

"This tastes good." He muttered to himself in surprise, "It's only R?"

***

Ke Jin is really devastated now.

Because he was busy with the renovation of the Kachi Courtyard these days, he forgot that it was already the day for the system to release the next stage of tasks. When the system began to remind him to quickly enter the Kachi Courtyard to receive the task, Ke Jin hurried back to the courtyard and entered the Kachi Courtyard.

The last task was to [reach a cumulative total of 5,000 draws from the card pool within one month]. Ke Jin estimated that this time the task might be to challenge 10,000 draws. He nervously opened the task interface, but the amount of tasks that appeared was so small that Ke Jin was surprised - [1,000 draws].

But when Ke Jin took a closer look, he almost fainted.

[New task released: Please achieve the card pool "add 1,000 new people to participate in the card draw" achievement within one month. Note: Only new people are counted, and people who have drawn cards in the past are not counted. Current count: 0 people have achieved it. ]

To add one thousand new people to participate in the card drawing means that for it to count, there must be one thousand newcomers who have never drawn cards in the card pool before. However, since he opened, including the help from the card pool bureau, the number of people who came to draw cards has not exceeded four hundred!

Besides, the card pool is still closed now. When it reopens, it is estimated that there will only be ten days left. Where can he get a thousand new people? ! Do you want him to perform Nuwa creating humans on the spot? !
