60: Hidden Class Scroll
"Dean, you flatter me."
Li Changkong cupped his fists.
"Are you interested in joining our Gold Institute? If you're willing, I can reserve a spot for you as a core Disciple."
Jin Buhuan looked at Li Changkong and slowly spoke.
A benevolent smile graced his face, making people feel an urge to approach him at first glance.
"Since I have already joined the Fire Institute, it's natural for me to settle in. I hope Dean Jin forgives me."
Li Changkong shook his head and continued.
Upon hearing this, a hint of regret flashed in Jin Buhuan's eyes.
The main reason Li Changkong wanted to stay in the Fire Institute was its lax management.
He inherently disliked restrictions, and besides, his professional skills could be better utilized in dungeons.
He didn't need any resourcetilt to improve his strength.
Meanwhile, quiet discussions arose from the crowd behind him.
"See, I told you. I knew this kid wasn't any good."
"He must have used some despicable means to clear the stage."
"Why wouldn't he join the Gold Institute? There aren't that many reasons. He's simply afraid his despicable methods will be discovered."
Among the crowd, some people began to question the previous statements.
These words naturally fell into his ears, but Li Changkong paid no attention to them.
"Since you won this competition, this scroll in my hand is your reward. I hope you continue to perform well in the future."
Jin Buhuan then handed over the scroll he held.
Li Changkong took the scroll from Jin Buhuan's hand, marveling at Shenhua Academy's immense wealth.
The reward for a novice competition was actually a hidden profession scroll.
Such a grand gesture, besides Shenhua Academy, probably no one else could pull off.
"In addition, there are ten thousand contribution points, which have already been added to your nameplate."
Jin Buhuan continued.
Contribution points were a unique System within Shenhua Academy, essentially the money spent within the school.
One contribution point was equivalent to ten thousand chinese yuan, and these ten thousand contribution points were equivalent to one hundred million chinese yuan.
Such a lavish expenditure left Li Changkong even more speechless.
"Work hard."
After saying this, Jin Buhuan walked to another student and began distributing rewards.
The award ceremony proceeded quickly, and half an hour later, the entire ceremony concluded.
At this point, everyone began to disperse.
Just as Li Changkong was about to turn around, a purple-haired, round-faced girl bounced over.
"Li Changkong, from Blue Sea, right?"
The round-faced girl walked over and asked with a pout.
Li Changkong glanced at the girl, who was dressed in blue, looking somewhat cute, and wore a rabbit ear headband.
"Yes, why?"
Li Changkong was a little surprised.
"I'm also from Blue Sea, we're fellow townsfolk."
The round-faced girl then said with a giggle.
"If I remember correctly, it seems I'm the only person from Blue Sea who entered Shenhua University this year."
Li Changkong was skeptical and continued.
"Although I'm from Blue Sea, I took my exam in the capital."
"I noticed you earlier. I can't believe you actually got into Shenhua University. Aren't you a lifestyle profession?"
The round-faced girl kept asking questions, making Li Changkong feel a bit helpless.
"Do you think I'm a lifestyle profession? If you say so, then I am."
Li Changkong walked around the round-faced girl, preparing to leave.
But to his surprise, the round-faced girl still didn't want to let Li Changkong go.
"I'm from the Water Institute, my name is Zheng Rouyi. It's nice to meet you."
The girl extended a hand, clearly a natural at making acquaintances.
"He's just like this, pretending to be aloof. My name is Hou Wen, let's get acquainted."
Hou Wen jumped out at this moment and said excitedly.
Zheng Rouyi glanced at Hou Wen, then rolled her eyes: "Get lost, you fatso."
The originally excited Hou Wen, hearing this, choked on the words he was about to say.
Li Changkong wasn't too familiar with Shenhua Academy yet, so he planned to get to know it better.
"Since you're from the capital, you must know a lot about Shenhua Academy, right?"
"Are there any fun places in this Shenhua Academy?"
Li Changkong looked at the blue-haired girl and asked curiously.
"I'm telling you, if you ask me, you've asked the right person. My older sister, Zheng Qing'er, is an old student at this school."
The blue-haired girl nodded and said.
"Your sister is Zheng Qing'er? The Zheng Qing'er who's second on the campus beauty ranking and top ten on the academy ranking?"
Hou Wen was even more surprised to hear this and interjected.
"If there's no one else with the same name, then it should be my sister."
"Also, you fatso, talk less. I didn't come here to talk to you this time."
Zheng Rouyi rolled her eyes and continued.
"What did you mean by that just now? Is his sister very famous?"
Li Changkong felt a bit confused and then asked.
"She's an incredibly hot commodity in our school, not just generally famous."
Hou Wen nodded heavily.
"Anyway, I'm not interested. Just tell me what's fun here."
Li Changkong seemed unenthusiastic, not caring about these things.
In his opinion, women could only affect the speed at which he drew his sword.
"Well, it depends on what you want to do? But the most fun place should be our school's Black Tower."
After a slight hesitation, Zheng Rouyi pointed to a black tower behind her.
Indeed, there was a black tower in the very center of the plaza, and below it, many students were queuing up.
"This is?"
Li Changkong looked puzzled.
"This Black Tower has eighteen floors in total, and there are eighteen enemies inside the eighteen floors."
"Anyone below Rank thirty can challenge it."
"If you can make it to the final floor, it's said you can win extremely generous rewards."
Zheng Rouyi continued to explain.
"However, this Black Tower is extremely difficult. Students in the past five years have basically not made it past the twelfth floor of the Black Tower."
"Even students within ten years haven't made it past the fifteenth floor."
"As for the eighteenth floor, since the school opened, no one has ever reached it."
Hou Wen continued to explain.
Upon hearing this, Li Changkong became somewhat curious.
"Fatty, he asked me, not you. What are you rambling about? Go on, shoo."
Zheng Rouyi continued, clearly not getting along with Hou Wen.
