24: High-profile! The higher the profile, the better!

Just like that, the four of them, Fang Bai, successfully enrolled.

Because they were covered in injuries, the academy gave them three days off, with classes officially starting in three days.

Director Liu came to the dormitory building in person to distribute their point cards.

"There are fifty points in here. You can just swipe the card for purchases within the academy."

"Also, here are your student IDs. Hmm, this is the only copy. If you lose them, it will cost one hundred points to replace."

"And this is the Martial Academy's code of conduct. There are a total of 1,698 rules. During these three days of rest, remember to memorize them all. There will be a spot check by a teacher in three days."

...

The first two items gave the four of them a sense of novelty. After all, from this moment on, they were students of the famous Martial Academy!

But the code of conduct that followed...

Qi Tian widened his eyes, pointed at the rulebook on the table that was as thick as a dictionary, and said in disbelief: "Are you sure we have to memorize this whole thing within three days?"

Director Liu nodded seriously: "Yes."

Qi Tian's face looked as ugly as if he had eaten a fly: "What the hell? Such a thick book, the vocabulary in it contains numbers I've never even encountered in my life. How am I supposed to memorize this?"

Director Liu shrugged: "There's nothing I can do about that. This is the academy's regulation. Oh, right, your second uncle also participated in revising this code of conduct. If I remember correctly, he wrote at least five hundred of the rules."

Qi Tian: "..."

Fang Bai's expression was a bit strange as he said: "Director Liu, is this a bit too difficult? Xiao Yuan and... they don't know many characters. How are they supposed to take the test!"

Director Liu smiled: "Aren't you planning to teach Xiao Yuan how to read? This task is now handed over to you."

Saying this, he waved his hand and left the dormitory.

Fang Bai's expression stiffened. Teach him to read, my ass! Even if he taught him for a year, he wouldn't be able to pass!

"Oh, right!"

Director Liu, who had already stepped out, returned and kindly reminded them: "If you fail, you will have to pay ten points."

After finishing, he left completely.

Fang Bai and the others looked at each other.

"What the hell... we've been set up by the capitalists!"

Qi Tian gritted his teeth and said: "I've always been the one exploiting others. When have I ever been exploited by someone else?!"

Fang Bai said calmly: "Isn't it just an exam? What's so difficult about it?"

"???"

The other three looked at him one after another.

Fang Bai looked at Qi Tian innocently: "Aren't you a rich second-generation heir? You should have received a high-quality education since you were young, right? Don't tell me you're afraid of a mere exam?"

Qi Tian's expression looked a bit unpleasant: "Do you think someone with my background would study hard?"

He hadn't had to worry about food or drink for several lifetimes, so why study?

Other people studied just to get to know him!

Suddenly thinking of something, Qi Tian looked at Fang Bai, then looked at the five-centimeter-thick code of conduct, and asked in surprise: "Don't tell me you can pass the exam?"

Fang Bai smiled: "Of course. What's so difficult about that? Did I never tell you that I was the top-ranked student in my grade at Modu Third High School? Plus, I've already learned a bit about the Martial Academy's rules. Passing the exam or something like that isn't hard."

"..."

Qi Tian's gaze was resentful.

A Xiu and Xiao Yuan looked at Fang Bai with some admiration.

Not to mention Xiao Yuan, A Xiu had also experienced a rather bitter environment since she was young, so she hadn't even attended elementary school.

It looked like, except for Fang Bai, the other three would have to pay those ten points.

Qi Tian scratched his messy long hair and said gloomily: "Forget it, whatever. Let's go eat first. I'm starving after that fight!"

Several of them nodded in agreement.

Although their injuries were treated by Qi Tian, for injuries like broken ribs, Qi Tian's current Alien Energy was not enough to treat so many people, so they urgently needed to absorb some nutrition to nourish their bodies.

The four of them went together to the cafeteria.

Since they were newcomers, it was better to stay together. What if they got bullied if they were alone?

This was also something Fang Bai had proposed.

Arriving at the cafeteria, the facilities here were not much different from what they had imagined, except that there were few service windows—only two.

At this moment, there were sparse students eating in the cafeteria.

Seeing Fang Bai and his group of four, they cast curious gazes at them.

Many people already knew these four newcomers. After all, the Martial Academy's welcoming ceremony wasn't something that happened all the time.

"Are those the new Second Year Students? They don't look like anything special, just that big guy is a bit conspicuous."

"Don't judge a book by its cover. They beat over twenty First Year Students to the ground at noon!"

"Pfft, a bunch of losers. If it were me, one person would be enough!"

"Are you sure?"

"...Uh, it's not against the law for me to brag, right?"

"..."

Facing everyone's scrutiny, the four of them had calm expressions.

Qi Tian asked Fang Bai in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What should we do?"

Fang Bai said calmly: "High profile! The higher profile, the better!"

Qi Tian raised his eyebrows and said: "Okay! Watch me! I'm the best at showing off!"

He walked up to the cafeteria window, waved his hand grandly, and said heroically: "Auntie! Give me four servings of the best food!"

Everyone: "..."

At the same time, Fang Bai noticed that the people watching the show had looks of terror on their faces, and they quickly carried their trays and moved away from the area.

Fang Bai's expression shifted, signaling Xiao Yuan and A Xiu to step back a little.

Whoosh!

At this moment, a rice scoop flew directly at Qi Tian!

"Holy crap!"

Qi Tian's expression changed, and he quickly leaned back tactically, dodging the blow by a hair's breadth.

The "Auntie" serving the food narrowed her eyes and stared at him dangerously: "Who are you calling Auntie?"

Although the other party was wearing a chef's hat, upon closer inspection, she looked quite young, but there was a scar on the girl's face, making her look a bit ferocious.

Qi Tian smiled sheepishly: "Sorry, my eyesight is a bit bad. I misread. Beautiful lady, please don't mind it."

He had clearly felt a murderous aura just now, which made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar!

The girl in front of him was someone he couldn't afford to provoke!

The chef on the side watched this scene teasingly, and said: "Liu Xue, they are all newcomers. Don't hold it against them, lest you beat them half-dead again and the Dean punishes you to serve food in the cafeteria for another month."

Fang Bai and the others: "???"

Not a Buddy!

The girl named Liu Xue snorted coldly, then casually served four portions of food and threw them at the window, saying coldly: "One hundred and twenty points!"

"What the hell?!"

Qi Tian's eyes widened immediately.

Fang Bai and the others also had stiff expressions.

What the hell? One meal costs thirty points?!

Are you kidding me?

Liu Xue's face suddenly turned cold.

The boy on the side quickly said: "You were the ones who ordered the most expensive food. What we served you is top-quality monster meat, so naturally, it's a bit expensive."

Qi Tian's mouth twitched. He didn't expect to get himself in trouble by trying to show off.

With so many people watching, he couldn't lose face, so he had to grit his teeth and swipe the card.

One hundred and twenty points were gone just like that!

Fortunately, he had exchanged a lot of points from Zhang Zifeng and the other two, otherwise, he would have lost face today!

The four of them found a place to sit down, their expressions all a bit heavy.

"The prices here are not just ordinarily expensive!"

Fang Bai spoke first.

A Xiu nodded.

Thirty points—if she had to pay for it herself, she would only have twenty points left.

Qi Tian said indignantly: "No way! This is too frustrating! When has this young master ever been short of money? Later, I'll go find some seniors to exchange points!"

Fang Bai stopped him: "Forget it. Do you want to get us killed? The Martial Academy strictly prohibits using money to buy points. You'll get beaten up if you do that."

Qi Tian was on the verge of tears: "Then won't we starve to death?"

Fang Bai pondered for a moment, then said: "Let's go see tomorrow to see if there's any way to earn points, otherwise, we really will starve to death."

Having just joined the Martial Academy on the first day, they were already living a hard life. Why were so many people breaking their heads trying to join this place?

"Huh?! Why is it you?!"

At this moment, a shocked voice rang out.
