"Sister, is it possible to get rewards without taking the exam?" Wang Anye asked again.

"No, even though you’re so handsome and your demeanor hits all my aesthetic points," Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao shook her head like a rattle drum, "but it’s still not possible. If you want to get treasures, you need to exchange contribution points or pass the graduation trial test... This is the academy operation law personally set by the Great Saint Emperor."

"Baosheng, come change the operation law..." Wang Anye looked at Wang Baosheng beside him.

"Yes, great grandfather," Wang Baosheng scratched his head confusedly and said, "Sister Jiu Xiao, how can I change the operation law?"

"You just need to re-ritualize my artifact spirit core and rewrite the operation law into my artifact spirit core." Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao didn’t hide anything, freely explaining a lot.

After talking for a quarter of an hour, Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao finally said: "However, because I’m a very high-level artifact spirit, your divine consciousness strength needs to reach True Immortal Realm level to re-ritualize my artifact spirit core. If you want to forcibly break the barrier you set in your past life, you’ll likely need Taoist Master level divine consciousness strength."

"..."

Wang Baosheng looked at her with a mysterious gaze, not speaking for a while.

She said a lot, but all of it was useless. Not to mention cultivating divine consciousness to the Taoist Master level, even reaching the True Immortal level would be too late.

"So the only way to get rewards is through the trial test?" Wang Anye frowned and asked.

"At the moment, that’s the only option." Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao was also helpless, "I dare not violate the operation law, otherwise I would be forcibly erased of wisdom."

"Alright."

Wang Anye nodded, then called back Fugui, Ningxi, and Baosheng to meticulously interrogate the methods of the trial, the treasures stored in the treasury, and other information.

Apart from Baosheng, the three of them were already very proficient in this work. In just two hours, they figured out all the rules, and understood everything about the treasures stored in the treasury.

Wang Ningxi compiled the treasures into a list, loaded it on a portable crystal screen, and handed it to Wang Shouzhe for review: "Old Ancestor Grandpa, the situation isn’t great~ There are no codexes stocked in this Officer Training Academy, and other resources are scarce."

"Why are there no codexes?" Wang Shouzhe frowned, looking over the treasure inventory, his brow furrowing tightly.

"This is a Senior Officer Improvement Academy," Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao replied confidently, "Every potential student is recommended from the Intermediate Military Officer Academy. With their achievements, they would have already received the codex there."

Wang Anye furrowed his brow, suddenly beckoning to Wang Hongliang watching from afar: "Hongliang, Hongliang come over here. Show Sister Jiu Xiao your IOU."

Wang Hongliang hurriedly trotted over, took out a small stack of IOUs from his storage ring, and showed each one to Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao.

The handwriting on these IOUs was clear, detailing owed "one bottle of Advanced Bloodline Potential Improvement Liquid," "one bottle of High-improvements Essence Version," "five top-quality spirit stones," "one codex," "one Dao-level item," etc.

The debtor was the artifact spirit of the Intermediate Military Officer Academy...

It also stated, "Please request inventory replenishment from superior artifact spirit," and other such phrases.

Now that the Intermediate Military Officer Academy’s artifact spirit sister was deep in debt and unable to repay, she had "fallen" to become the Wang family’s service-type artifact spirit, receiving a salary every year.

Similar IOUs were held by many young people in the Wang family.

As more elite clan members of the Wang family emerged, the demand for rewards grew, making the artifact spirit sister’s meager salary a mere drop in the bucket, with debts snowballing further and redemption becoming increasingly impossible.

After viewing the IOUs, Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao paused in silence, then spoke reluctantly, "It’s not that I’m trying to renege on the debt, but my treasury only has some top-quality spirit stones... there’s none of the high-improve, codex, or Dao-level items. Mainly because the academy is too high-level, these aren’t necessary..."

"However, I can initiate a replenish inventory request to the superior, asking them to quickly dispatch someone to refill the Intermediate Military Officer Academy’s insufficient inventory."

"Isn’t this just blatant nonsense?" Wang Fugui pulled his son, indicating to Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao to open her eyes and see clearly, "Your superior is right here... Sister Jiu Xiao, could you initiate a replenish inventory request for us to see?"

Uh...

Wang Baosheng looked embarrassed.

It seemed like the treasures he collected in his past life weren’t enough for the family’s demands.

"Enough," Wang Shouzhe finally waved his hand, stopping further conversation, "Jiu Xiao is just an artifact spirit, don’t make things difficult for her."

"Yes."

Everyone agreed in unison.

Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao’s favorability towards Wang Shouzhe increased significantly.

This handsome family head is the best to talk to~

She awkwardly muttered, "Once our academy has resources, we will definitely repay the debt."

"No worries, since Jiu Xiao is a high-level artifact spirit, I’m sure she has excellent information processing abilities. If you can’t repay the debt, you could work to pay it off. Once it’s repaid, you regain your freedom." Wang Shouzhe decisively said.

"!!!"

Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao was stunned for a moment.

This... this... she was trapped? She became the Wang family’s working artifact spirit?

"With the prize quantity at this Officer Academy being so little, let’s hurry and finish up with the rewards and leave. Everyone has a bunch of tasks waiting for them." Wang Shouzhe solemnly added, "Fugui, Ningxi, you have experience, quickly draft a plan and get ready to push through the task in one go..."

"Yes, Old Ancestor Grandpa," Fugui and Ningxi responded in unison.

Before leaving, Wang Shouzhe glanced at Baosheng, unable to resist patting him on the shoulder, saying earnestly, "Holy Child, you had a tough time in your past life."

The academy is so poor, there’s no way for the Wang family to rely on such an academy to solve problems, so the codex gap must be addressed independently.

With so many children of the Wang family having talent above Second Rate Supremacy, acquiring hundreds of codexes at once is obviously unrealistic, whether buying from the Sacred Domain or excavating relics, it’s improbable to do it quickly.

For now, we can only settle for less.

It seems that the long-planned codex completion plan has to accelerate its progress.

Wang Baosheng felt embarrassed as he spoke, his face flushing.

Blame me in my previous life for not being resourceful enough to collect more treasures for the Wang family to exploit~~

Soon, three days passed.

Everything had already been settled, and everyone had passed the preliminary review by Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao, obtaining formal student status at the academy.

However, today...

The Senior Officer Improvement Academy welcomed its first wave of "graduation rush," with many seasoned students obtaining student status coming to the Testing Tower to submit graduation applications according to the plan.

A vigorous resource-exploitation action was set into motion.
