Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 235 - 205: Su Yuan, Our Beloved Class President!

Before Qi Hanyan could react, Su Yuan enthusiastically stepped forward to welcome them.

"Welcome, everyone, to the Primordial Sect's Pill Hall."

"Each of you is about to become a rising star in the Alchemy Realm! I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

"By joining this grand incubation platform, the Primordial Sect's Pill Hall, you'll gain the most comprehensive frontline work experience and receive meticulous guidance from experienced alchemists."

"Additionally, you'll be able to earn academic credits at a pace far exceeding that of other students, allowing you to redeem an Immortal Spirit Root and forge a Supreme Dao Foundation sooner."

Su Yuan's fluent and persuasive speech left the prep class students in a daze.

Finally, after a while, someone sensibly asked:

"Class leader Su Yuan, I heard from classmate Chen that your Alchemy Workshop is much better than others. Could you tell us specifically what the advantages are?"

Su Yuan smiled slightly and said:

"There are too many advantages to count."

"I won't even mention the benefits and compensation since I'm sure you all aren't lacking in that. Let's just talk about the earnings in terms of academic credits."

"Normally, there are only two options for anyone looking to profit through alchemy."

"One is to practice alchemy under an individual label, and the other is to become a temporary worker for an alchemy sect."

"But the drawbacks of these two paths are obvious: individuals lack sufficient reputation, making it hard to gain clients' trust, and thus, elixir sales naturally remain low."

"If you become a temp worker, more than half of the profits from alchemy are taken by the sect, and naturally, these retained earnings cannot be converted into academic credits."

At this point, Su Yuan's tone became mysterious, and he spoke quietly:

"But the Primordial Sect is different; since I'm your class leader, how could I bear to dock your pay?"

"By working at my factory, all profits from your elixirs are nominally yours and can be fully converted into corresponding academic credits."

"Not to mention, the Primordial Sect has a large number of artists under its banner, and I am also one of Taihua City's biggest online influencers."

"With Primordial Media's promotion, our workshop's sales will definitely surpass even the middling sects."

Upon hearing this, the prep class students were suddenly enlightened.

In that case, joining the Primordial Sect's Pill Hall certainly seemed worthwhile.

For a moment there, they all looked at Su Yuan more affectionately.

Class leader Su Yuan is a good person! Prep class students don't deceive prep class students!

But at that moment, a perceptive student suddenly noticed a key point:

"Class leader Su Yuan, you just said that the earnings from alchemy are 'nominally' ours; what does 'nominally' mean?"

Su Yuan's smile slowly faded.

Chen Nuoyi quietly closed the factory's main door.

The entire workshop instantly became eerie, causing unease among the prep class students.

Su Yuan calmly spoke:

"Everyone, such a large Primordial Sect needs to sustain itself."

"I'm not running a charity, so I'd like to propose a gentleman's agreement with you here."

"It's quite simple: before converting your alchemy earnings into academic credits, this money will be in your accounts, but after the conversion, I'd ask you to return seventy percent of the profits to me."

"This way, the Primordial Sect can continue to exist and grow."

"I've said my part; who agrees and who opposes?"

The prep class students, upon hearing this, looked at each other in dismay.

Seventy percent?

Most other alchemy sects would take at most fifty percent, and the better ones around thirty percent.

Taking seventy percent seems a bit harsh, doesn't it?

Indeed, this is a downright black factory.

However, from another perspective, it seems like an operation to exchange money for academic credits!

The geniuses who make it into a prep class, except a few, can't possibly come from poor families.

At least the few here have been exposed to elixirs from a young age, deeply rooted in family teachings, and have no real concept of money.

Spending money for academic credits seems like a decent prospect.

After exchanging glances among themselves, the few prep class students finally all chose to agree.

The factory door opened quietly, sunlight poured back into the room, and Su Yuan once again donned a friendly smile:

"Shall we start familiarizing ourselves with the work then?"

Immediately following, treating them like seasoned alchemists, Su Yuan led the six prep class students into the herb warehouse.

As expected, when faced with a choice between the Righteous Pill Formula and the Demon Pill Formula, the students opted for the former without hesitation.

Su Yuan didn't say much about this and agreed readily.

Once enough alchemists were assembled, Su Yuan waved his hand to start production!

The six prep class students and Qi Hanyan were assigned to concoct the Righteous Third-Turn Golden Core, while the other middle-aged alchemists were in a larger workshop making the Demon Path Third-Turn Golden Core.

Su Yuan started a live broadcast on site, while Chen Nuoyi entered the Taixu Illusion Realm's Golden City for simultaneous promotion.

The Primordial Sect's ten thousand water army members flooded the Spiritual Net with advertisements.

Even Guangzi's Miao Yin streamer sent out synchronized video reviews of the Third-Turn Golden Core. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Dear friends! The Primordial Sect's Pill Hall is officially open!"

Su Yuan greeted the camera and headed to the workshop where the Righteous Third-Turn Golden Core was being made.

He pointed at the seven young alchemists and said:

"Dear friends, look here, these seven are my classmates from the Top Ten Preparatory Classes, they are all experts in alchemy."

"Together, we've formed a young and dynamic team."

Su Yuan picked up a freshly made, steaming Three-Turn Golden Core:

"Dear friends, take another look, this is the Third-Turn Golden Core produced by the Primordial Sect's Pill Hall, the formula has been approved, and it's been critically selected by Profound Art Celestial Sect's Ph.D. and Golden Core Great Cultivator Master Qiu Xuanji."
