Chapter 155: The Strategy Post That Can’t Be Sold
"What did you say?" Li Xuan opened his eyes wide, staring at a female classmate and asked loudly.
The girl looked a little scared and whispered, "I've completed my mission... I don't need to... I don't need to buy your strategy..."
"That's impossible. Are you kidding me? How could you possibly kill the bronze auspicious beast?" Li Xuan stared at the girl in disbelief.
The girl said cautiously, "I didn't kill the bronze auspicious beast, but I killed ten bronze rabbits. I have completed the task."
"Bronze rabbit? Isn't our mission to kill the legendary bronze beast? What's the point of you killing the bronze rabbit?" Li Xuan frowned.
"The assignment information doesn't say to kill the legendary bronze beast. It just says to kill the bronze beast." The girl quickly took out the message on her mobile phone to show Li Xuan.
Sure enough, her homework assignment only said that she had to kill bronze beasts, and did not specify that she had to kill legendary beasts.
"This is impossible? Did we see it wrong?" Li Xuan quickly took out his mobile phone and looked at his homework information again to confirm that he was not mistaken. It was indeed marked that the beast to be killed was a legendary bronze beast.
"Old Zhou, what did you write in your message?" Li Xuan asked Zhou Wen again.
"Same as yours." Zhou Wen took out his cell phone and handed it to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan took a look and found that it was indeed the same as his. He then quickly made a few more calls. After a while, he looked at Zhou Wen with a strange expression and said, "In our class, all the students received the task of killing bronze beasts. Only the two of us received the task of killing legendary bronze beasts."
"Could it be that it was sent to the wrong person?" Zhou Wen asked.
"It's impossible that it was sent to a mistake. Messages like this are sent to a group. If it was sent to a mistake, it should have been sent to all the students. How could it have been sent to just the two of us? It was clearly sent to us individually." Li Xuan said.
"Does that mean my strategy is useless?" The first question that came to Zhou Wen's mind was not why the princess gave them two such a high difficulty level, but whether his strategy could still be sold.
"That's hard to say. As far as I know, the special recruits class also received this task, but those guys are basically legendary, and they are all arrogant. I'm afraid they won't spend money to buy your strategy." Li Xuan said.
Zhou Wen frowned slightly when he heard that it might not sell for much, but when he thought of Wang Lu, his eyes lit up again. He turned to Li Xuan and asked, "Li Xuan, does this forbidden city have any records of the fastest way to kill the bronze auspicious beast?"
"Of course there are. This kind of record exists in every dimension." Li Xuan instantly understood Zhou Wen's meaning: "You mean to say that we should sell this strategy to those specially recruited students who want to break the record?"
"We can give it a try." Zhou Wen felt that there should be a chance, so he planned to go to Wang Lu and ask her if she was interested in buying the guide.
Zhou Wen and Li Xuan returned to Four Seasons Garden and went to the small building where Wang Lu lived to look for her. They happened to meet Wang Lu on the small path in Four Seasons Garden. With Wang Lu were four or five special admissions students, who also seemed to have just returned. They were walking and talking, as if they were discussing something.
"Zhou Wen, Li Xuan, what a coincidence?" Wang Lu greeted Zhou Wen and Li Xuan when he saw them.
"It's not a coincidence. We came to find you specifically. Is the academic assignment for you special recruits this time to kill the bronze auspicious beast?" Zhou Wen asked directly.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Wang Lu looked at Zhou Wen strangely, not knowing why he suddenly asked this.
"It's like this. Li Xuan and I have developed a strategy for killing bronze auspicious beasts. It should be of some help in killing bronze auspicious beasts. It can allow you to kill bronze auspicious beasts faster, or even break the record. Do you want to see if you are interested?" Zhou Wen said.
Before Wang Lu could say anything, a male special recruit next to him spoke up, "Zhou Wen, we admit that your companion pet is indeed powerful. Unfortunately, we don't have a companion pet as powerful as yours, so your strategy is useless to us."
"The strategy we're researching doesn't require a special companion pet, and companion pets can't be used in the Forbidden City," Zhou Wen said.
"Since no one can use companion pets, we can also study the method of killing bronze auspicious beasts by ourselves. Why should we spend money to buy your strategy?" The boy said with a smile.
Zhou Wen finally realized that he had overlooked a problem with his not-so-high emotional intelligence. Those who could enter Sunset College were all geniuses, and the specially recruited students were the geniuses among geniuses. They were all quite proud. Asking them to spend money to buy other people's strategy guides would mean that they would admit that they were not as good as others. How could the proud specially recruited students be willing to spend money to buy it?
Another female special recruit also said, "Zhou Wen, we came to Sunset College to train ourselves. We must personally experience and overcome difficulties in order to make progress. Buying other people's strategy guides is equivalent to cheating and is meaningless to us."
The other special admissions students probably hold the same view.
Wang Lu said, "Zhou Wen, your strategy is definitely useful, but I still want to challenge myself."
Even Wang Lu said so. Zhou Wen knew that his strategy was really going to fail.
After Li Xuan and Zhou Wen returned to the dormitory, Li Xuan said to Zhou Wen, "It seems this strategy guide is going to be hard to sell. I don't know what the princess mentor was thinking. She only gave us two the task of killing the bronze auspicious beast without telling us earlier. We wasted so much time researching the strategy guide for nothing."
"It's nothing, just treat it as exercise and learning." Zhou Wen didn't care much.
Li Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Oh right, you could write up the guide and post it on our school's internal forum. We can set up a paid post there. Maybe those specially recruited students, who are too embarrassed to buy in public, won't have so many concerns in private."
"Okay, you can post it for me, but the price must be high. This kind of strategy will lose its value once it is circulated, so it is best to make a full profit in one go." Zhou Wen still remembered the painful experience of posting a post to sell the strategy last time, and reminded Li Xuan first.
"But if the price is too high, they won't be able to click on it easily, right?" Li Xuan hesitated.
"It doesn't matter if I can't sell it, as long as I don't sell it at a low price." Zhou Wen was open-minded.
"Okay." Li Xuan nodded and posted the strategy on the academy's internal forum. After Li Xuan finished, he saw Zhou Wen lying on the sofa playing games again, so he asked, "You play games all day long, killing only those ants. Don't you feel bored?"
"I don't think so." Zhou Wen said without raising his head.
"Stop playing around. Come with me to kill ten bronze auspicious beasts and break the record. Since those special recruits don't want to break the record, we will break it ourselves." Li Xuan said.
Zhou Wen followed Li Xuan to the Forbidden City, but the post they posted attracted someone's attention.
Liu Zhengyan, the instructor of the special recruitment class, saw a post titled "The master teaches you how to break the record and kill the bronze auspicious beast in one minute."
