Ninth class citizen

Chapter 396: Hands off the shopkeeper
"Send half of each of these dishes to her: the Ponlas crab sashimi, the seven-star golden sea bream sashimi, the tenna caviar, and the crispy roasted highland lamb leg. She should love them all."

Nan Rong gestured to the waiter, then personally poured a large glass of milky-white liquor, speckled with blue and gold light. In the blink of an eye, the glass was teleported to Wendy's side.

"This is the Tianshi Seven Flavors Wine that you used to dream of for life, the one you would die happy with after just one sip."

"Really?" Wendy was overjoyed and couldn't wait to take a big gulp, but the sudden spicy taste that hit her nose made her tear up.

She resisted the urge, took another sip, and it transformed into an indescribably mellow and sweet flavor.

"Good wine!" Wendy's eyes sparkled.

“Of course it is.” Nan Rong said leisurely, “This wine is the last barrel that His Majesty Tian Zhengze made by hand before his death. It was stored in the family wine cellar for nearly fifty years before Tian Li gave it to me. If it were put up for auction, just the small sip you just took could sell for several million.”

"Hmm!" Wendy's eyes widened instantly, and she clutched the wine glass tightly in her hand: "Is it too late for me to take it out and sell it now?"

Nan Rong laughed: "Just kidding. The wine is real, and it's definitely worth the price—but the pleasure of drinking it surpasses those cold Cowen coins."

"Yes, really?" Wendy blinked. "So, Nan Rong, you shouldn't be short of money anymore, right?"

Does she need to distribute the two million Cowan in her account?
This little scheme of hers left Nan Rong both amused and exasperated.

"Eat your food properly. You still have a lot to do after you finish eating."

As she spoke, she waved her hand, and an unassuming rose gold ring was slipped onto Wendy's right middle finger.

"What is this?" Wendy asked, puzzled.

"Try probing with your mental energy," Nan Rong suggested.

Wendy was stunned when she tried it.

There was actually a space inside the ring, at least a hundred square meters in size!

"A transcendent ring with a spatial ability?"

She turned to look at Nan Rong in disbelief, who nodded: "You know, I'm a pretty good component builder."

There were many other things in the huge space: various materials, a bag of source energy crystals of various attributes, and A-grade gene evolution fluid of levels one to three.

"Everything inside is an advance on your salary." Nan Rong smiled like a little fox: "So Wendy, you absolutely have to work hard for me!"

That night, Wendy lay on the large and comfortable bed, feeling the soft, cloud-like texture of the natural silk, and comfortably rolled around several times.

She has been injected with a Tier 1 A-grade gene evolution fluid, which has comprehensively enhanced all her attributes and awakened a Tier 4 metal-type extraordinary ability.

After a period of heightened excitement, the fatigue from the journey returned, and Wendy quickly drifted off to sleep.

Then she realized she had fallen into a terrible nightmare! The once silky soft bedding had turned into a huge, prairie viper covered in fine scales, which tightly coiled around her, making her feel as if several of her ribs were broken.

Her newly awakened metal-based superpowers were useless; she could only struggle with brute force, kicking, tearing, biting, and sucking with all her might—until the giant snake stopped moving, she finally crawled out in a sorry state.

The bed was nowhere to be found. The house she lived in had turned into a huge, scarlet lump of flesh, constantly gushing out a yellowish-green acidic liquid, much like the stomach of some unknown beast.

At breakfast, Wendy's dark circles were impossible to hide. Nan Rong took a few extra glances at her, noticing the effects of the Tier 1 gene evolution fluid. Could it be insomnia caused by excessive excitement? But with her physique strengthened to this extent, even a few days without sleep shouldn't cause this, right?

Not only Wendy, but also Jacob, Rophius, and Florent who were serving at her side, as well as all the servants around.

Their condition was even worse than Wendy's; their forced smiles couldn't hide the weariness in their eyes.

Nan Rong's heart skipped a beat, and she summoned the square imprint in her mind: "Their current state... was it your doing?"

"Of course!" Square Imprint's eyes darted between the various squares on its body, but no matter which square it appeared in, it always wore a smug expression.

"They got off easy! In the past, those who wanted to participate in the trials had to wait in line for a long time!"

"But their souls and physical strength are far superior to those of people from the core plane of the universe," Nan Rong said helplessly.

"I know! Don't worry, Master, all the trials are designed individually to suit each person, ensuring that they can unleash every bit of their potential, but no one will actually be harmed." The square-shaped mark's eyes moved to the top layer:

"Otherwise, wouldn't that ruin their reputation? Just you wait and see, in just one month, they'll be completely transformed, both in terms of their souls and physical strength, making them far stronger than the natives of the original plane!"

Since there were such advantages, Nan Rong selectively ignored the resentful looks from the crowd.

The daytime classes went smoothly. Nan Rong also provided one-on-one instruction on the first five levels of the Spiritual Sea Law to the students in the regular classes.

Of course, she didn't forget her new teaching assistant Wendy, who passed on the same level of ten as Hayden and the other two.

After personally experiencing this amazing mental training method, the students in the regular classes suddenly realized what they had missed.

Wendy was equally confused. She looked at Nan Rong in the center of the podium. Her roommate seemed completely different from before. No matter how much she overestimated her, she was still limited by her perspective and could not see through the fog to see clearly.

Nan Rong, however, was too lazy to elaborate. The deadline the Great Demon King had given her was still weighing heavily on her mind, and she didn't have the time or energy to devote to these students.

She packaged all the new processes for potions below the fifth tier that she had modified, the formulas for basic potions and general advanced potions from different planets, and the experience and skills needed to master in potion synthesis, including those from the Campbell family and those that Nan Rong had learned herself, and transmitted them directly to Wendy and all the students' brains.

As for the teaching assistant she had personally selected, she naturally wanted to give her some extra benefits, so she sent Wendy a separate copy of the twenty-odd basic secret documents that she had referenced in the process of improving the procedures.

The diagram has already marked her understanding of these basic ciphers, and the text has been written in a way that is as easy to understand as possible, in the hope that she can benefit from it.

All the information is directly absorbed into the brain. The newly improved process is simpler and easier to follow, eliminating many cumbersome and ineffective steps, making drug synthesis easier and more efficient.

With the aid of the spiritual method, as long as you practice diligently, you will eventually master it.
