Once the card pool in my hand increased, and I had more options for disassembly and fusion, there was also a possibility of creating an extremely powerful card that would boost my strength abruptly. With increased strength, it wasn't out of the question for me to once again claim the top spot in the class and the top five in the school. By that time, wouldn't Divinity still be mine?

Taking others' belongings to strengthen oneself, that move could be made.

At this thought, he lifted his head and smiled,

"It's only natural for me to have priority over this bit of Divinity since it appeared due to my actions. You guys have always been among the top five in class and have a great chance of obtaining it. Although I managed to get the first place in the baseline test this time, my losses were significant. It's hard to say whether I can continue performing well in the final exams, let alone secure the first place in class or the top ten in the grade. So, in principle, I'm willing to sell this priority for a good price."

Lin Xiao spoke very directly, using this as a straightforward transaction. He extended his index finger and said,

"Yuan Hong, you're the strongest among us and have the best chance, so I want a Five Star card from you. You don't have any objections, do you?"

Yuan Hong's face suddenly darkened, and his mouth twitched without making a sound.

Lin Xiao ignored his ugly expression. Who asked you to threaten me a while ago? He continued speaking to another top student in the class, Wan Chuan,

"Wan Chuan, your grades are not much different from Yuan Hong's, ranking just slightly below him. You also have a great chance, so I want a Four Star card from you. No problem, right?"

The tall and sturdy Wan Chuan glanced at the grim-faced Yuan Hong and cheerfully said,

"No problem!"

Lin Xiao nodded and then looked at the other three students who were regularly among the top five in the class and said,

"One Two Star card each from you guys, okay?"

These three competitors were much less formidable than Yuan Hong and Wan Chuan. Asking for more would certainly be out of the question, but a Two Star card was just right. As long as they wanted to take a shot in this term's final exams, they would surely agree.

However, to his surprise, the three looked at each other and simultaneously shook their heads, saying,

"Let's forget about it, we're not interested in this."

"Crap!"

He miscalculated. Whether they lacked confidence in themselves or simply weren't falling for it, they didn't agree. There was nothing he could do.

Fortunately, it wasn't important whether those three agreed or not. As long as these two agreed it would suffice. Yuan Hong and Wan Chuan weren't that different in strength; the title of number one in the standard tests usually rotated between the two, with Yuan Hong just securing the top spot a few more times.

Strong capabilities gave Wan Chuan the confidence to challenge Yuan Hong for the top spot once more.

Next, in the presence of the teacher and other classmates, Yuan Hong and Wan Chuan each took out a Five Star and a Four Star card to give to Lin Xiao, exchanging them for a fair chance to compete.

As for the cards, they were random; even with their wealth, they couldn't possibly carry several Five Star cards on them at all times.

But the cards that they could carry would not be bad; there wouldn't be any worthless cards.

So the transaction was completed, and Lin Xiao's hand was now plus one resource card and one species card.

Four Star Resource Card—Buffalo Herd (Rare): Summon 100 buffaloes at once. Note: Sexual distribution is random.

Five Star Species Card—Goblin Tribe (Normal): Gain 500 Normal Goblins at once. Note: Includes 10 Bear Goblins, half male and half female.

The Goblin Card was a bit wasteful, but the Buffalo Herd was quite good. The note about the random distribution of males and females meant that if there were a certain number of female buffaloes, it would be possible to breed from them.

The most crucial point was that buffaloes could be domesticated, meaning they could be used for plowing fields, pulling goods, slaughtered for meat when food was scarce, or even used to charge into battle, among other functionalities.

Coming out of the Divine Realm Login Cabin, Lin Xiao washed his face and returned to the cabin. He took out the total of three cards from inside: the Divine Realm Card, the Resource Card of the Buffalo Herd, and the Species Card for the Goblin Tribe.

After considering, he decided to hide the cards he got from Wan Chuan and Yuan Hong; then he took out his bracelet and sent a message to mom and dad.

In less than a minute, there was a response. Soft blue starlight cascaded down, and the projection of his beautiful and lovely mother appeared before him, just like a young girl, asking softly,

```

"Xiao'er, is there something bothering you? I remember today is your last preliminary test of the semester. How did you do?"

Lin Xiao couldn't help but reveal a genuine smile on his face, placing his hands behind his back and tilting his head as he said:

"Guess?"

Jin Yunzhu's gaze swept over her son's face, and she said with a beaming smile:

"Seeing you like this, you probably did well. What's that in your hands behind your back?"

"Hehe, exactly, da-dang da-dang..."

He stretched his hands from behind his back, showing the Divine Realm Card to his mother:

"Look, this time in the preliminary test your son got first place, and I passed the teacher's additional challenge. The teacher awarded me a Divine Realm Card."

Jin Yunzhu looked at the extraordinary Five-Star Divine Realm Card with a mix of surprise and joy and said with a face full of astonishment and delight:

"Is this for real? Son, you actually got first place this time?"

"That's amazing, I'm very happy."

She didn't even bother asking how he got first place, just looked at him with joy, then muttered to herself:

"This is such great news, I'll tell your father later, let him give you a reward."

Seeing this, Lin Xiao chuckled and rubbed his hands together, saying:

"Mom, you know, next month is the final exam, and the outcome will determine which classes we'll be in next semester. Your son has managed to catch up, but I wasted a lot of time before, and there are still several loading slots left. Can you discuss with dad, maybe support me with some better cards? If I score well, I could end up in an elite or key class next semester and make you proud, right?"

As the saying goes, 'A mother knows her child best.' Jin Yunzhu could tell whether her son wanted to pee or poop just by looking at his expression. Covering her mouth, she chuckled and said:

"You should've come to your senses earlier. Your dad has already prepared a set of Five-Star Cards for you. It was you who said you wanted to rely on your own abilities. And look what happened!"

Lin Xiao awkwardly rubbed his head and said:

"Wasn't that just being naïve before? I've seen the light now. I don't want to try hard anymore; I want to cling to mom and dad's coattails."

"If you knew it would come to this, why did you even start?"

Jin Yunzhu pointed her slender finger at his head and lightly spat out.

Lin Xiao kept nodding and bowing with clasped hands:

"Yeah, your child knows his mistakes now."

"Then just wait, I'll talk to your dad."

"Alright, I respectfully see off the empress dowager."

"Cheeky boy!"

After seeing off his mother, Lin Xiao hummed a tune and sprawled onto his bed, not worried in the slightest. His parents had always had a plan for his life. Even if he truly lacked talent, they could help him become a Normal Demigod.

Even just being a Normal Demigod meant a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, more than enough for him to live very comfortably.

It has to be said, being born into privilege is indeed comfortable – he has a father who seems strict but is actually very caring, and a mother who could be considered extremely doting. This feeling...

Compared to the treatment of other transmigrators, he's definitely a winner in life!

Lin Xiao is absolutely satisfied with his family in this life.
