Although I don't know what type of purple quality celestial treasure he has in his hand?
But I can totally exchange for a celestial treasure suitable for breaking through my bottleneck in the Academy's warehouse.
But now the problem is, can Huang Huanqing accept it?
After all, Huang Huanqing's affection for his Mechanical Crow is quite deep.
Though I could create another crow-type Guardian Beast or, should I say, Card Spirit for him.
Jiang Yuan slightly shook his head, putting aside this thought for now as it wasn't the right occasion.
"Awesome, Jiang Yuan, for winning the championship! Shouldn't we go out for a big meal?"
Ai Xiu was very excited. He knew that the people he believed in would never let him down.
Jiang Yuan had won the championship in the second battlefield of the Four Academies Joint Examination, and he felt as if he himself had won, seemingly even more excited than Jiang Yuan.
"Eat!"
Jiang Yuan also smiled and nodded: "How about ramen?"
"What!"
"What the heck!"
Ai Xiu stood up discontentedly: "You've won the championship, why are you still asking us to eat ramen!"
"Of course, it's because Jiang Yuan is the one treating us. If you want to treat, then, of course, you can choose to eat whatever you want."
Seeing Ai Xiu's reaction, Li Chengyi quickly turned his eyes and then immediately addressed Ai Xiu.
"In that case, I'll treat everyone to dinner, to celebrate Jiang Yuan winning the championship. Let's all go together."
Ai Xiu gave Li Chengyi a dismissive look and spoke up at once.
How could he possibly not understand Li Chengyi's little schemes?
After all, they have known each other for such a long time.
But today, he's happy since Zhongyuan Academy has won the championship of the Four Academies Joint Examination.
Although it was only the second battlefield, it was a good start.
"Don't, don't, since I've won the championship, I'll treat everyone. I was just joking just now. Whatever you want to eat, let's go together."
Jiang Yuan said with a smile as he pulled down Ai Xiu's hand, then turned his head to speak to Huang Huanqing, Wang Baiqing, and others.
"Since it's Zhongyuan Academy that won the championship, is it appropriate for us to join?"
"What's inappropriate about that? You got eliminated by him, and now you're helping him save money."
As soon as Wang Baiqing finished speaking, Ai Xiu chuckled and teased Wang Baiqing.
Wang Baiqing didn't mind Ai Xiu's words but nodded thoughtfully instead.
"That's true; let's go have a feast."
"That's more like it."
Everybody laughed, including Jiang Yuan, Ai Xiu, Wang Baiqing, Huang Huanqing, and Ye Jinhuan, Zhan Youqing. They then started eating together after finding a restaurant around the Academy.
"Do you have some time? Let's chat."
After the meal, with the sky full of bright stars, Jiang Yuan waited until everyone had left before he spoke to Huang Huanqing.
"Is it about card making?"
Huang Huanqing's eyes lit up, and he eagerly nodded to Jiang Yuan: "Of course, I've got time."
"Let's talk here then."
Jiang Yuan glanced down the street, which was now almost deserted, and began to speak directly to Huang Huanqing.
"You want to use a Summoning Card to bring your Mechanical Crow back by your side, right?"
"Right!"
Huang Huanqing looked at Jiang Yuan with hopeful eyes, nodding vigorously.
"Basically impossible."
Facing Huang Huanqing's hopeful eyes, Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment before finally speaking out.
"Huh?"
"If you need to use the method of making a Summoning Card, then I'm not afraid to tell you that to create a Card Spirit, you must understand everything it was, and you need to incorporate your thoughts into it to successfully create a Card Spirit."
Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment: "This is my teacher's method; he used this method to turn a member of the Demon Race into his Card Spirit."
"And my way of creating Card Spirits is not the same as my teacher's."
Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly: "The Card Spirits I create are like creating the character or creature from nothing."
Although to say so is not exactly accurate, after all, Nezha, Shi Ji, Zhao Gongming, and the Unihorn Smoke Beast all exist in the mythology of my original world.
Under such circumstances, to say it's created from nothing seems about right in this world.
But speaking seriously, what Jiang Yuan is doing can be considered as standing on the shoulders of giants.
"What you mean is…"
Huang Huanqing's voice was slightly trembling, with a glimmer of hope still lingering in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Yuan and asked.
"Yes, neither my method nor the teacher's can make your Mechanical Crow reappear."
Jiang Yuan finally broke the silence, explaining to Huang Huanqing.
"If we were to use the teacher's method of production, we would not only need the Mechanical Crow's Inner Core to understand it but might also need your memory of the Mechanical Crow to reconstruct the one you recognize."
"Neither of these methods is achievable at the moment."
Jiang Yuan did not lie, especially given that Huang Huanqing was also aware of the situation with the Inner Core.
If it were possible to decipher the Inner Core, then it would be possible to repair it.
And if it could be repaired, the problem with the Mechanical Crow wouldn't be a problem anymore.
Another factor was Huang Huanqing's memory of the Mechanical Crow.
Without this, even if a Mechanical Crow could be made, there was a high chance it would be different from the one in Huang Huanqing's memory.
But if one needs to obtain Huang Huanqing's memory...
Look at that Demon Race guy, although his memory was forcibly extracted, one can plainly see how it ended for him.
And what about Huang Huanqing?
Even though it doesn't require forcibly extracting memories, acquiring her memories would definitely damage her brain.
Such a thing is impossible in the Great Xia, or in the world of the Human Clan.
So the idea of her Mechanical Crow continuing to accompany her is simply impossible.
Even for a Summoning Spirit Card Master.
"Is that so..."
The last glimmer of light in Huang Huanqing's eyes faded, and her tone was low.
"Yes."
Jiang Yuan nodded, almost unable to bear telling her his thoughts as he saw her like this.
However...
"Although reconstructing the Mechanical Crow may not be realistic, I could make you a new crow-type Guardian Beast, which is also a type of Card Spirit."
"A new crow-type Guardian Beast..."
Still with a low voice, after murmuring to herself, Huang Huanqing finally lifted her head, forced a smile at Jiang Yuan, and shook her head.
"No, thank you."
Having said that, Huang Huanqing turned and left, leaving Jiang Yuan alone, looking at her retreating figure with disappointment.
"Sigh."
After a slight sigh, Jiang Yuan could only give up on Huang Huanqing.
"I wonder if Li Chengyi has any cards he wants to make?"
On the way home, Jiang Yuan wondered who else could help him.
Besides the champion himself, the runner-up Huang Huanqing, only the third-place Li Chengyi had a blue-quality Star Power Light Ball.
And Li Chengyi, being a Skill Card Master with full attributes whose Skill Cards are so abundant that the Star Power within his body could be exhausted five times over without running out; what card could he possibly lack?
For me, aside from the top three, the rewards from fourth to tenth place are only a white-quality Star Power Light Ball.
After the tenth place, there isn't even the reward of a Star Power Light Ball.
"Ask him?"
Standing at his doorstep, Jiang Yuan stopped in his tracks, looking at the screen in his hand, caught in indecision.
"I feel a bit embarrassed."
Jiang Yuan was silent for a moment before sending the message.
Jiang Yuan: Is there any card you need to be made? I can help.
Li Chengyi's response came quickly.
Li Chengyi: No, I have many unused cards in my hand.
Li Chengyi: Have you reached home yet?
Jiang Yuan: Yes, just arrived.
After putting away his phone, Jiang Yuan reluctantly looked up at the moon in the sky.
"Sure enough, I said he has more cards in his hand than he can use; there's no need for me to make any."
Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Jiang Yuan felt somewhat at a loss.
"Could it be that I need to wait until after the assessments of the first and third battlefields are over to see if I can find them?"
"But they don't know me, and they might not even be from my own Academy."
"Otherwise, could a white-quality Star Power Light Ball suffice?"
