Chapter 248 Testing the Presidents
With Joanna’s current strength, could she challenge some of the weaker presidents?
Inside the villa.
Joanna looked at her account, which showed not only negative credits but also deducted funds.
The Mythic-level skill upgrade stone cost not only 30,000 credits, but also 1 trillion Starcoins.
Because she had special approval, the money wasn’t deducted immediately and showed up as debt.
And because of her top student status, the loan was even interest-free.
Joanna couldn’t help but think of Katherine, who had to repay her debt over 200 billion per year.
years, 50
That made Joanna want to cover the hole immediately.
Thankfully, her recent Mythic-level task had yielded a massive amount of materials.
Especially the Dark Gold-tier materials from the Dreamweaver Spiders-their value was extremely high.
Joanna went through the merchants who had added her before, then settled on three. She sent
over the materials list.
“If I bundle all of these together, what price can you offer p>
Could they handle it?
Anyone who could hang around the Dungeon Plaza near the Divine and Demonic Academy would never be unable to swallow the spoils of a prodigy.
Very quickly, the merchants started sending offers.
“Joanna, our company offers 300 billion for the full bundle, no hassle on your end p>
“Joanna, our company offers 650 billion. Your batch of Dreamweaver Spider materials is very interesting. They haven’t appeared before, so the value is hard to estimate. Are you satisfied with this price? We can still negotiate p>
“Joanna, we at Assurance Group offer 900 billion. Also, congratulations on advancing to intermediate professional. Assurance Group can customize a full set of Summoner equipment for you for free. You can even provide the materials yourself; we’ll only charge processing fees.

We guarantee peace of mind and take care of all your worries p>
Joanna naturally chose the highest offer.
As for the one quoting 300 billion, she blocked them on the spot.
Do they take me for a clueless freshman?
Or are they just blind?
If it’s the latter, a group like that will go bankrupt sooner or later. No reason to keep in contact.
As for the one trying to negotiate, Joanna replied that she had already reached an agreement with someone else and ignored them.
The last one, Assurance Group, was quite good.
Joanna accepted the trade request from Assurance Group’s vice CEO, Dorothy Smart.
With this much demon and monster loot changing hands, a portable trading exchange mailbox wouldn’t cut it. It had to be done face-to-face, delivering the goods in person.
Joanna brought Troy along and headed to the warehouse that Assurance Group had rented near Divine and Demonic Academy.
Dorothy was a red-haired woman around thirty years old. Her class was Life Class, Gold Trader. Her life level was 50, as merchant classes gained experience through trading, and even her Combat Class had reached Level 29.
That was because someone else handled her dungeon farming.
Assurance Group was a company that had only recently squeezed into Divine Demonic Planet. The CEO, Rowena Smart, was Dorothy’s twin sister.
Back in freshman year, Dorothy had only awakened a D-rank talent, “Careful Accounting p>
sister awakened an SSS-rank Talent, “Wrath of the Fire God,” and entered the Divine- Training Program, only to be eliminated in the end.
their view, the reason was simple. They were broke.
They didn’t have enough Starcoins to upgrade equipment and skills, and even when farming monsters, they were reluctant to use spirit and mana recovery potions. Those little attribute boosters? They had never touched them.
After being eliminated from the training program, Rowena joined a Legendary-tier academy. Over a decade later, she had become a Level 70 powerhouse.

Dorothy, meanwhile, founded the company. With her sister’s backing, the group progressed smoothly and finally stepped back onto Divine Demonic Planet.
This place was full of Gold-tier opportunities, but they weren’t easy to grab. Up to now, Dorothy’s group hadn’t completed a single major deal.
Veteran students already had their fixed partner groups, so her attention could only turn to
freshmen.
Joanna was her key target. She had waited a long time just to add her as a contact.
After all, with Astral Step. Joanna only appeared in the Dungeon Plaza at the moment of entering or leaving dungeons.
And Joanna only came here when writing guides. Most of the time, her summoned beasts farmed for her.
Dorothy even started studying freshman schedules, locking down Joanna’s timing, replaying in her mind again and again how to add this freshman top student as a contact.
Fortunately, when they met, Joanna wasn’t arrogant enough to reject her outright. But after adding her, Dorothy’s attempts to chat and build rapport were never answered.
This transaction was absolutely an icebreaker.
Their first collaboration would earn her very little; it was practically working for nothing. But she believed in Joanna’s ability. In the future, there would definitely be more things to handle. This was a long game.
Very soon, the two agreed to meet at a storage warehouse near the academy, and Dorothy brought a large amount of spatial equipment.
