"Cold-Resistant Fruit, an item for expanding contract slots. Each face of its pattern adds one contract slot; the Cold-Resistant Fruit can have up to three faces."

"This Ageless Three-Phase Fruit is the best of the Cold-Resistant Fruits, consuming it can add three contract slots."

Upon hearing this, Li Cunxu's eyes fell on the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit and couldn't be moved away.

The admissions officer handed the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit to Li Cunxu.

"A special enrollment benefit from the principal."

"By the way, almost forgot to remind you, after consuming the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit, until it's fully refined, any other expanding items consumed will be ineffective. Generally, it takes three years to refine the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit."

Li Cunxu hesitated a bit, three years without being able to use expanding items.

The admissions officer wanted to say, "If you don't want to eat the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit, I can trade you three different expanding items for it."

But he didn't say it, he dared not divert the principal's gift of the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit to Li Cunxu.

Besides adding three contract slots, the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit can continuously enhance spiritual power over three years. Most importantly, it can also improve spiritual aptitude, speeding up the cultivation of spiritual power.

The worse the aptitude, the greater the improvement; the better the aptitude, the lesser the improvement.

The Ageless Three-Phase Fruit is the best among Cold-Resistant Fruits for boosting aptitude.

These effects, the admissions officer deliberately neglected to mention.

He was selfish, hoping to trick the Ageless Three-Phase Fruit from Li Cunxu, but feared the principal's power, didn't dare to deceitfully trick.

"Expanding items are incredibly rare. It might take me three years of searching just to find one, whereas a single Ageless Three-Phase Fruit can give me three contract slots. With the small price of not being able to refine other expanding items for three years, what's there to hesitate about?"

Li Cunxu thought, eating the cold Ageless Three-Phase Fruit, the fragrance of pine, bamboo, and plum lingered in his mouth.

It tastes quite good.

After eating the flesh, he was left with a triangular-shaped pit, the pit exuded an enticing fragrance.

It felt like the pit could also be eaten.

Li Cunxu wiped away the drool from the corner of his mouth and asked, "Can the pit be eaten?"

The admissions officer replied, "Yes, but it's not recommended. Consuming the pit can purify spiritual power, but if you keep it and plant it in the soil, in just thirty years, the Evergreen Tree will grow. Afterward, every thirty years, the Evergreen Tree will bear a Cold-Resistant Fruit."

"You mean if I plant the pit, it will take sixty years to harvest a Cold-Resistant Fruit."

"Yes, the Evergreen Tree only bears fruit once it's grown."

"Is the fruit it bears necessarily an Ageless Three-Phase Fruit?"

"Not necessarily, obtaining an Ageless Three-Phase Fruit depends on luck."

Li Cunxu no longer hesitated and swallowed the pit of the Cold-Resistant Fruit in one gulp.

It would be crazy to trade sixty years for just one Cold-Resistant Fruit.

This lifetime, without the aid of players from the Fourth Heavenly Disaster, can the Divine Guard Continent withstand the conspiracy of the Four Gods? It's a question mark.

Perhaps Divine Guard Continent doesn't even have sixty years left.

So why plant? Not consuming it is a waste.

The purification of spiritual power by the pit is not instantaneous but gradual.

The admissions officer looked at Li Cunxu with a gaze like he was wasting a treasure.

A Cold-Resistant Fruit isn't just any fruit that can grow an Evergreen Tree; only the pit of an Ageless Three-Phase Fruit can produce an Evergreen Tree.

Like the pits of Age Cold Two-Phase Fruit or Aged Cold Fruit, they're useless.

The admissions officer lamented, "Why did you eat it, such a waste!"

"Not a waste, I can't wait sixty years."

"Oh well, it's your item, you handle it however you like," said the admissions officer, "By the way, during the purification of spiritual power, you can't enter a meditation state for cultivation. The pit of Aged Cold Fruit needs a month to purify, Two-Phase Fruit needs two months."

Li Cunxu quickly answered, "Three-Phase Fruit needs three months."

"Yes, three months."

"Come with me, I'll take you to your dorm."

The admissions officer drove a campus tour car, taking Li Cunxu to the accommodation area.

They passed by the campus lake.

The lake was peaceful and beautiful, the water clear to the bottom. A gentle breeze blew, making the tender branches of the willow trees sway, creating ripples. Water-type pet beasts leisurely lay on the water surface swimming on their backs, while those in the deep water occasionally blew big bubbles.

The scene was very harmonious, with meat-eating and vegetarian pet beasts swimming together in one lake.

Even the deep-water crocodile stared at the chubby yellow duck, drooling, but didn't bite the duck at all.

Li Cunxu knew the reason for this harmony; it's all thanks to the 'Prohibition of Combat' tokens standing on the lakeside and in the lake.

Violating the rules of the token would incite its lightning punishment.

The token is a type of artifact beast divided into parts, and its Beast Master is the principal.

It's easy to imagine how terrifying its attack is.

The token controls the power of its attack, but doesn't suppress its might, giving erring pet beasts the illusion that the token's attack will utterly destroy them, like endless pressure from a giant wheel looming overhead while they are tied to a stake.

So, pet beasts who have experienced the token's attack behave themselves.

The accommodation area in Shendu is extremely luxurious, located within a secret realm.

The entrance to the secret realm is the accommodation's main entrance.

The gates to the secret realm are teleportation gates, made with incredibly rare spatial materials.

Gazing at the ten-meter-tall, twelve-meter-wide accommodation gate, Li Cunxu couldn't help but marvel at Shendu University's extravagance.

According to the admissions officer, there are eight such gates, convenient for students to come and go.

Furthermore, teachers and students are not in the same accommodation area, teachers stay in an even better secret realm area.

To enter the teacher's accommodation secret realm, one doesn't need the Secret Realm Teleportation Gate; simply pressing the school-issued watch, within Shendu University's range, will bring you in.

The admissions officer tossed Li Cunxu a key labeled [111333].

"This is your dormitory."

"This villa in front of me?"

"Yes."

"How many people will be living here?"

"Just you."

Li Cunxu was even more surprised to hear what was next.

Inside the villa, there was a Spirit Cultivation Room specifically for accelerating the cultivation of spiritual power.

The admissions officer said, "The lower the serial number of the villa, the more luxurious it is, and the better the effect of the Spirit Cultivation Room."

"If you want to live in a villa with a better serial number, participate in the internal ranking matches at the arena."

Subsequently, the admissions officer took Li Cunxu to his class.

The admissions officer knocked on the door of Class a-1.

At this moment, the admissions officer employed a little tactic; the principal hadn't specified which class Li Cunxu should join, so he took Li Cunxu to the strongest class in the grade, Class a-1.

"Teacher Yang, sorry to interrupt, but I'm placing this student in your class."

Yang Wuwen rubbed his head that shone like a lightbulb.

"Teacher Feng, where is this student from? Why haven't I seen him in the school before?"

Yang Wuwen was a King, and at that level, having a photographic memory was basic.

Teacher Feng introduced, "This student is named Li Cunxu, a sixteen-year-old special enrollee, specially recruited by the principal."

The age of sixteen didn't capture the interest of the geniuses in Class a-1.

However, when they heard he was specially recruited by the principal, every gaze turned towards him, including those resting their heads and napping at the back.
