Thinking like this, Chen Miaomiao straightened her back, "Qian Qi, it was one thing for you to sneak our stuff before, but to scare me with blood all over you in the middle of the night, isn't that too much?"
Qian Qi turned to stare at her, and maybe it made Chen Miaomiao feel guilty because her voice and tone softened a bit, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Qian Qi blinked, and after a moment, she corrected seriously, "It was morning, not the middle of the night."
"What?" Chen Miaomiao was stunned for a moment, then said speechlessly, "That's not the point! Isn't the point that you scared me on purpose!"
"I didn't mean to scare you," Qian Qi twisted her neck, "I was injured, it hurt a lot, I wanted to talk to you about it, but I didn't think you'd be scared."
It was also at that moment, the other roommates leaned over to see Qian Qi's neck covered in blood, and they were shocked, "Qian Qi, are you alright? Aren't you going to the hospital?"
Even though they didn't like Qian Qi and were a bit afraid of her, an injured neck was a different matter; they didn't want another dead person in the dorm!
This dorm is a six-person room, but now there are only five students; the spare bed was left empty after a mistake a few months ago got someone killed by a magic plant.
Qian Qi also wanted to go to the hospital, but, "no money."
The roommates: ...
After a moment of silence, one of the roommates, a long-haired girl with glasses, Liang Yuting, hesitantly stepped up. "Um, I'll lend you a hundred bucks first..."
Qian Qi jumped off the bed with a "whoosh," holding Liang Yuting's hands, tears in her eyes, "Thank you, you're a good person."
Liang Yuting: ...
She regretted it a little, she was sure she'd never get that money back!
"You should go to the hospital first." Liang Yuting watched Qian Qi's bloody neck, really unable to bear looking directly at it, "Were you bitten by a magic plant?"
"Mm, I went to steal a senior's magic plant fruit." Qian Qi confessed honestly, "I was so hungry, couldn't resist when passing by."
All the roommates: !!!
She's really crazy! Who dares to eat the magic plant fruit! Aren't you afraid of dying!
Liang Yuting retreated two steps in difficulty, "Anyway, just go to the hospital and check!"
She stared at the money in Qian Qi's hand, a bit reluctant. After all, she's not from a wealthy family either, lending Qian Qi a hundred bucks was already the limit.
Qian Qi noticed Liang Yuting's gaze, waved the hundred bucks in her hand and smiled, "Don't worry, I'll definitely pay you back."
She just realized she didn't have a penny, so she wanted to borrow some money for an emergency; she was definitely going to repay the money.
Liang Yuting nodded, but in her heart, she still felt like she wouldn't get the money back.
Qian Qi rummaged through the closet for a while and found only an old leather jacket; she couldn't help frowning tightly, not because it was old, but because...
The oversized brown leather jacket was a bit worn out, paired with a white sleeveless T-shirt that couldn't be cleaned anymore and a loose black men's shorts, along with flip-flops worn for who knows how many years...
This outfit looked more absurd than the old uncle managing the dorm next door.
Especially with this messy bird's nest hair... even street punks might call her 'big brother'.
Qian Qi rubbed her face but still resignedly put on the jacket.
After leaving the dorm, Qian Qi first went to the cafeteria for a hearty meal. Students of the magic plant study major have free tuition, but living expenses need to be paid by themselves. Fortunately, the cafeteria here is stratified by wealth, and the food she picked on the first floor was very cheap.
Taking a bite of the bun, Qian Qi thought to herself, she had to make some money.
When she first arrived here, her first reaction was to check her account, but reality dealt her a heavy blow.
She was really broke, didn't have a penny.
Originally, she thought of relying on her major to scrape by, but it turned out her major was so niche.
She could bear her major being unpopular, but no "money" future was absolutely unacceptable!
"I need to find a way to transfer majors."
Qian Qi opened her light brain and began to search Awakener University's college majors.
Awakener University is divided into five major colleges: Beast Taming Department College, Conducting Department College, Skill Department College, Magic Beast Department College, Magic Plant Department College.
Commanding is a very selective major at Awakener University, requiring students to have spiritual skills. Generally, entering the instance involves team combat, and as the commander, the awakener must be able to coordinate teammates and make correct combat decisions.
Skill learning is a college only for students with awakened skills, divided into "Elemental Master Major," "Long-range Shooter Major," and "Support Major" based on skill type.
Magic Beast Study is a relatively popular major, usually responsible for studying knowledge about magic beasts and conducting research assignments on magic beasts. In the future, entering the Magic Beast Research Institute offers great salary and benefits, even a lot of perks, like selling scraps of the magic beast to awakeners for a good amount of money.
As for Magic Plant Study, needless to say, it's frozen ice-cold, only the poor and crazy would come here to study magic plant.
And Beast Taming...
Beast Taming is the most popular and prestigious major at Awakener University, with an even higher threshold than Commanding and Skill learning, requiring students to have "Beast Taming Talent" to apply. Not only is tuition free, but it also provides high-quality free accommodations and meals, and once you contract a magic beast, the future is limitless!
Of course, magic beasts are not so easy to contract; while students with "Beast Taming Talent" can make a "contract" request, they are usually mercilessly rejected by magic beasts, and the backlash is severe.
Therefore, only by building a good relationship with the magic beast and being recognized by it can one establish a contract and become master and servant. At that time, the Beast Master not only gains derived skills from the magic beast but also utilizes the magic beast to fight, which is truly everyone's dream profession.
"Damn, this Beast Taming is too tempting!" Qian Qi clicked on the light brain, fiercely biting into the bun, "I say, system, what's the key motion to trigger the beast taming skill, huh? How about you secretly tell me?"
[＾＿＾Dear, sleeping less during the day, you might be daydreaming.]
Qian Qi: ...
"Are you implying you don't want to tell me the key motion, or that you don't have this function?"
[Don't have this function.]
"Ha!" Qian Qi finally found an opportunity to retort, "You're really useless!"
[...]
Having finally silenced the system, Qian Qi contentedly wiped her mouth, "Beast Taming, Commanding, and Skill Learning have too high a threshold; with a farming skill, I can't get in at all, but Magic Beast Study looks good."
Magic Beast Study does not have a skill threshold, as long as you pay enough tuition, you can go.
"Let me see what preparations are needed to transfer majors." Although Qian Qi has farming skills, she's not planning to advance Magic Plant Study; first, she couldn't beat the magic plants she grows, and second, there's no money path in Magic Plant Study; she might starve before making a career.
But soon, Qian Qi was black-faced again.
"Transferring majors is this hard?"
Similar to her past life, transferring majors requires ranking in the top three of the entire major in the first semester's final exams.
Qian Qi could bear this, but she couldn't endure the other condition.
"Transferring majors requires paying a transfer fee of thirty thousand bucks! Not only that, but the tuition for Magic Beast Department is fifteen thousand bucks a year! Accommodation costs a thousand bucks! Books cost another five hundred bucks!"
In other words, she would need to save 46,500 bucks to change majors?
As the saying goes, money can beat the bravest hero.
Suddenly, Qian Qi felt, maybe Magic Plant Study wasn't that unpopular after all~
"Alright!" Qian Qi said with a determined expression, "There's no money that's hard to earn in the world, only people who don't think!"
"Even studying the most unpopular major, I'll make the most money!"
