Chapter 41: Sprite Cultivator Su’s First Order

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Silkworm Baby sank into contemplation.

It was already nearly a month-old in terms of the Internet Age and had expanded its horizons through the Internet. It had also learned a lot of general knowledge of the human world from?The Accomplishment of Sprites, the book written by Elder Budd.

It wasn’t a sprite that would be easily fooled anymore.

The result of the detailed analysis was that having an underling to boss about was indeed not a bad idea and would be very impressive.

Since Su Hao was being so kind, then it shall forgive him for everything that happened in the past.

Su Hao went to the Sprite Care House in the afternoon on a daily basis after school for quite a few days after he was hired.

He stayed in the lounge and got Silkworm Baby to make contact with Little Fire Crow instead.

Little Fire Crow might be aloof, but at the very least, Silkworm Baby was already a sprite of culture after all. Would it be unable to get things done when it was just up against a naive Fire Crow that had just entered the growth stage?

True to his expectations, in just a short few days, Silkworm Baby had already become friends with Little Fire Crow.

Once in a while, Little Fire Crow would also respond with a few squawks, even though it was still silent most of the time.

“First step of the plan, completed!”

Su Hao observed them covertly in the security control room.

Silkworm Baby was just an entry point. The key was still Su Hao himself, of course.

Little Fire Crow’s detailed information surfaced in his eyes once more.

Its favorite types of food were listed among the information.

“There’s nothing in this world that cannot be resolved with a meal. If there is, then make it two meals.”

Compared to Wood-Element Sprites, Fire-Element sprite cultivation was a little more troublesome. This particular Little Fire Crow was even a picky eater too.

Su Hao ordered some special food ingredients on the Internet.

He also bought some spiritual items from Green Shade Supermarket.

Days passed. There wasn’t much change in Su Hao’s lifestyle.

If he really had to come up with one, then it was that he had more freedom now.

Coach Xiong no longer arranged compulsory training for him.

Old Chen didn’t mind in the least even if he read other books during lessons, either.

He received true star student treatment, and he even gained a lot of fans.

“Great God Su, the speed of my Little Rolling Stone is too low. It looks like a sitting duck all the time. What should I do?”

“You’re not going in the right direction. Little Rolling Stone is an armored sprite.?Tanking1?is the absolute way to go. If you really have to move, then you can try the unique skill, Rolling. Your Little Rolling Stone is equipped with the conditions to learn unique skills now anyway.”

“Great God Su, why isn’t my Viney climbing up the anti-theft window anymore lately? It used to love clinging to the anti-theft window exterior to sunbathe the most in the past.”

“Check the weather forecast more often. It’s been very sunny recently, and we’ve been training in the field a lot lately. Isn’t the amount of sunlight your Vine Snake is exposed to enough?”

“Great God Su, why doesn’t my Little Stone Elephant eat meat? I prepared such a sumptuous feast, yet it wouldn’t even look at it.”

“Do you have some kind of misconception about your Little Stone Elephant?”

“Great God Su…”

For a while, Su Hao became someone who held even more power and prestige than Old Chen and Old Gu in the school.

It was second only to Coach Xiong.

However, Su Hao felt that Coach Xiong’s authority came purely from the threat of his iron fists.

Neither was Su Hao too impatient to answer his classmates’ questions—it was just a few words anyway.

It was just that…

Can all of you ask questions that are slightly more specialized?

“As expected, I, who is excessively outstanding, am finding myself feeling like I’m out of place in this class as usual.”

On Saturday, Su Hao was on duty at the Sprite Care House.

He no longer held any hope in things like customers by now. He left everything to fate instead.

The previous night, when he had logged in to the internal marketplace of the Union of Sprite Trainers, the status of “Improved Charging” had already changed from “Unprocessed” to “Pending Verification”.

The outcome should be out in two to three days.

As long as Improved Charging could get listed for sale in the marketplace, with a bit of accumulation, buying Little Fire Crow wouldn’t be a problem.

Unexpectedly, shortly after he took a seat, a receptionist from the lower floors led a customer up.

It was a middle-aged man who had a Fluffy Ball with him.

“You must be Little Brother Su. I came here today, especially for a consultation with you after hearing about you. My name is Wang.”

“Big Brother Wang.”

Su Hao had originally wanted to address him as Uncle Wang, but after a moment’s consideration, he felt that doing that would make him look immature.

“I heard about you from my cousin’s neighbor’s second nephew…” said Uncle Wang.

Su Hao was taken aback for a moment.

It was then that he realized that it might be his classmates from the Sprite stream who were advertising for him.

Fame within An City: +1

The man even hailed him as the most dazzling genius in An City First High.

This… What kind of truth are you spouting!?

Su Hao was someone who kept a low-profile after all, so he quickly went straight to the main topic. “Big Brother Wang, your Fluffy Ball must have gotten stuck at the final step after approaching the limit of its spiritual force, right?”

“Yes, yes, that’s right. As expected of a Sprite Cultivator, you could tell right away.”

Su Hao thought for a moment. Then, his fingers began to tap away on the keyboard. In no time, he had drawn up a cultivation plan and printed it.

“Big Brother Wang, your Fluffy Ball’s main issue is that its spiritual force value is stuck at 99 points. However, it’s already very close to reaching 100 points. You need only to use Method A and Method B, and supplement it with Material C, to let Fluffy Ball gain that last bit of spiritual force. After that, the sprite can begin the preparations to compress its spiritual force and break through to entry-level.”

Big Brother Wang was taken aback.

He held the plan, which still had some residual warmth to it, in his hand. “That’s… all?”

All of a sudden, he felt that the money he had paid was a little of a waste.

Wasn’t this a little too patronizing!?

Su Hao smacked his head. He understood the moment he saw the man’s expression.

He was still too inexperienced.

When customers approached Sprite Cultivators for a consultation regarding cultivation plans, even the lowest fee charged came up to 3,000 yuan. How could he simply just write him a plan and be done with it?

At the very least, he needed to put on a show.

“How about this, Big Brother Wang, bring your sprite over here for a check-up.”

Su Hao called for a staff member who opened the door to the physical examination room next door.

There were devices inside that could detect a sprite’s spiritual force, the sturdiness of their physique, and other detailed statistics, such as their height, fur length, and so on.

Su Hao had thought that they wouldn’t come into play.

But now that he thought about it, could a Sprite Cultivator command such a high consultation fee without the expensive equipment?

“Give this Fluffy Ball a thorough examination.”

It didn’t cost anything anyway.

Amidst a slew of actions—which Su Hao couldn’t understand—performed by the staff, the Fluffy Ball was given a thorough examination.

The results were printed on the spot.

Su Hao glanced at it before handing it to Uncle Wang.

Uncle Wang took a look. Then, he picked up the plan which Su Hao had drawn up earlier and compared them.

His expression changed from one of surprise to astonishment, and then to shock.

The sprite statistics in the papers were actually exactly the same!

No, the sprite statistics in the plan that Su Hao… Master Su had given him were even more detailed than the ones on the examination results.

Uncle Wang was both shocked and ashamed of himself.

He had indeed come here especially to look for Su Hao for a consultation, but it wasn’t because of his so-called genius reputation or whatnot.

There was only one reason—it was cheap.

As a new entry-level Sprite Cultivator, Su Hao’s consultation fee was the cheapest.

Fluffy Ball wouldn’t have been stuck at a spiritual force value of 99 due to malnourishment if his finances had been sufficient.

Uncle Wang looked at Su Hao.

Su Hao returned a smile but didn’t say anything. Everything was communicated in silence.

He opened and closed his mouth. In the end, he said his thanks and left with Fluffy Ball.

Su Hao felt that he had likely found himself a regular customer, probably?

“Gurgle~”

“Gurgle, gurgle~”

Suddenly, he heard Silkworm Baby’s familiar cries. When he turned and took a look, he saw that a pale yellow figure had already climbed up to the window on the third floor at some point.

It knocked on the window and called out to him.

Su Hao was taken aback for a moment.

“What, the things I ordered have arrived? And you’ve even signed for them? How did you do that?”

Su Hao was dumbstruck.
