For these Seed Students, the 40% discount privilege of the No.1 Seed was already something they coveted. But now, they never expected Fang Zhou to have secretly secured a 50% discount for being a main researcher on a scientific research team.

Most importantly, no one knew what method Fang Zhou had used. He had actually managed to persuade the notoriously stingy Principal Su to give him the green light, stacking the discounts to an unbelievable 70%!

Bai Xiaochan couldn't help but hug her small, weak, pitiful, and helpless body, murmuring to herself, "A 70% discount! A 70% discount! Fang Zhou already has several thousand contribution points. With this 70% discount, how many resources can he exchange for? I truly can't even imagine it. Isn't he going to soar straight into the heavens?"

An idea seemed to strike Meng Hongzhuang. Her large eyes darted about before she looked toward Lu Renjia and Lu Yiyi, asking tentatively, "Seniors, since Boss Fang Zhou's discount is so good, could we ask him to use his privileges to help us redeem resources at a low price? Then, we could pay him a little extra when we buy them from him. That way, not only could Fang Zhou earn some money, but we could also fleece the military academy and save on some expenses."

Lu Renjia shook his head with a regretful look. "It's a nice thought, and I'd love to do the same. Unfortunately, the military academy strictly prohibits students from purchasing resources on behalf of others. Fang Zhou's 70% discount privilege can only be used by him."

Hearing this, Meng Hongzhuang also sighed with regret. It makes sense, when you think about it. Sea City Military Academy painstakingly selects 100 Seed Students, granting them different privileges and rewards based on their seed ranking. This is all to motivate them to strive, struggle, and fiercely compete with one another. Under these circumstances, how could they possibly leave such an obvious loophole for students to exploit?

Meanwhile, under everyone's watchful eyes, Fang Zhou faced the payment code presented by the One-eyed Instructor but didn't rush to open his personal terminal to scan and pay.

He smiled at the One-eyed Instructor and said, "Instructor, if I recall correctly, as the No.1 Seed, I have an interest-free loan quota of 1,000 contribution points. According to the rules, I can use this 1,000-point interest-free loan quota at any time during my service at the military academy. I'd like to apply for an interest-free loan of 795 contribution points today to cover the cost of these resources. Is that acceptable?"

Sea City Military Academy provided each Seed Student with an interest-free loan quota, ranging from several hundred to a thousand contribution points, as an initial investment to accelerate their early development. After all, 1,000 contribution points is an astronomical sum for an Apprentice-level Professional; they could never earn that much from regular tasks. For a Bronze-level Professional, however, it's merely the price of a single Bronze-level Skill. They could earn back the points by completing a few high-difficulty missions at the academy or hunting some high-level Demons. Since there was no interest, it was a clear case of the sooner, the better for the Seed Students. The earlier they applied, the sooner they would benefit, grow stronger, and find success.

For this very reason, the One-eyed Instructor had no grounds to refuse Fang Zhou's legitimate request.

After filling out a loan application form at the One-eyed Instructor's request, Fang Zhou successfully acquired the large batch of resources for zero upfront cost. The price he paid was to proudly take on a debt of nearly 800 contribution points.

But in this era, only the truly capable were able to carry debt.

As he took the resource box from the One-eyed Instructor, Fang Zhou remembered his agreement with Instructor Su Xinyan and asked, "Instructor, are the free Enchantment materials for the No.1 Seed also collected here?"

The One-eyed Instructor was taken aback. "Of course, you can. Why? Have you already decided which Enchantment you want?"

Fang Zhou nodded affirmatively. "Yes. Earlier today, after your suggestion, I consulted with Instructor Su Xinyan. She recommended I choose between the [Transcendent] Enchantment, which has the effect of temporarily storing Spiritual Power, and the [Contract] Enchantment, which enhances the combat power of Summoned Creatures. After considering my current situation, I decided on the [Transcendent] Enchantment, and Instructor Su agreed with my choice."

The One-eyed Instructor nodded thoughtfully and stroked his beard. "Not bad, not bad at all. The [Transcendent] Enchantment is a versatile, all-purpose choice for a Magic Professional; you can't go wrong with it. At this stage, it is indeed more suitable for you than the [Contract] Enchantment."

With that, he grinned at Fang Zhou. "Enchantment is a sophisticated craft practiced by Alchemists, and it can only be performed on Equipment or specific Marvels of Green Excellent Quality or higher. For an Apprentice like yourself, Enchantment materials are extremely precious. If you miss this opportunity, you'll have to wait a very long time. So, I'll confirm with you one last time: are you sure you want to redeem the materials for the [Transcendent] Enchantment?"

Fang Zhou nodded firmly. "I am sure. The [Transcendent] Enchantment. Thank you, Instructor."

The One-eyed Instructor asked again, "Which Alchemist are you planning to have perform the Enchantment? Give me their name, and I'll register it for you in the system."

Fang Zhou smiled. "Naturally, Instructor Su Xinyan. I've already contacted her."

The One-eyed Instructor's eyes widened slightly. "If Instructor Su Xinyan is willing to perform the Enchantment for you, that couldn't be better. Her mastery of Alchemy is outstanding among all the instructors at Sea City Military Academy.

"However, it's ordinarily very difficult to persuade her to act."
