106: Hard currency of the university

"Dongtian?"

Jiang Yuan looked at Mu Qianshan with some surprise, but Mu Qianshan was very excited.

"Didn't you read the student handbook?"

"Not yet, what's up?"

"There are twenty-four Dongtians near our school!"

"Ah?"

Looking at the excited expressions of Mu Qianshan and Nezha, Jiang Yuan was a little surprised.

Twenty-four Dongtians?

Are there so many Dongtians near Zhongyuan Academy?

"Yes, it's all written in the student handbook. Twenty-four Dongtians, four of which are Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, which are the four major trial grounds."

Mu Qianshan suddenly waved his hand as he spoke: "Forget it, forget it, you should just read the student handbook yourself."

"Okay."

As Jiang Yuan spoke, he opened his phone and started reading the student handbook.

The student handbook began with an introduction to Zhongyuan Academy.

Jiang Yuan didn't pay attention to the founders, history, or anything like that, and directly looked at the 'Location' section.

The 'Location' section marked the information of the twenty-four Dongtians surrounding Zhongyuan Academy.

Four of these Dongtians were Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, meaning that one Dongtian connected to many worlds, and races from many different worlds could battle there.

The four Dongtians were divided into four levels: A-grade, B-grade, C-grade, and D-grade.

D-grade corresponds to the First Realm to the Third Realm.

C-grade corresponds to the Fourth Realm to the Sixth Realm.

B-grade corresponds to the Seventh Realm to the Ninth Realm.

A-grade corresponds to the Tenth Realm to the Twelfth Realm.

These are the entry requirements for the Dongtian.

If one does not meet these requirements, they cannot enter the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield of that grade.

Similarly, most of the remaining twenty Dongtians have restrictions, with only a few having none.

Some restrictions are divided into four grades, similar to the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, allowing entry to those who meet the conditions.

Others directly specify which realm is required for entry.

For example, there is a secret realm that only individuals at the Third Realm Zouzi can enter.

And some allow entry only for those below a certain realm.

"So you're talking about this No. 7 Dongtian, which only Xing Ji Stage strength can enter, right?"

After a quick look, Jiang Yuan understood what Mu Qianshan had just meant.

A Dongtian that only Star Epoch strength can enter, and that connects to the Beastmen, is indeed a place where they can now fight.

"A real Dongtian, aren't you curious?"

Compared to the calmer Jiang Yuan, Mu Qianshan was a bit excited.

He had entered many Dongtian Simulations, but he had never entered a real Dongtian before.

He had long wanted to enter a real Dongtian and see it for himself.

Although his strength was still at the Star Epoch Middle Stage, with his Zifu Sword, he was not afraid of opponents at the Star Epoch Late Stage.

So, after seeing this Dongtian that only Xing Ji Stage could enter in the student handbook, he was moved.

"Save your energy. We don't even know what tomorrow's freshman assessment will be like."

Jiang Yuan said to Mu Qianshan helplessly: "Let's talk after the freshman assessment is over. We'll have plenty of time then."

"Alright, that works."

Although Mu Qianshan was tempted, he also had a good sense of the bigger picture.

Compared to his own temptation, the unknown freshman assessment tomorrow was the most important thing.

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Nezha also retreated from his excited state and lay back down on the soft sofa.

Jiang Yuan also sat next to Nezha and began to read the student handbook.

The student handbook actually didn't have much content; it only introduced the Dongtians around the school and some basic facilities of the school.

There were many things like training grounds, trading centers, gambling arenas, libraries, and so on.

However, all of these required academic credits.

For example, a training ground, a room with dense Star Power similar to a Gathering Star Array, would cost a certain amount of academic credits for one session.

Similarly, learning martial arts at the martial arts hall also required a fee.

The remaining private tutoring, online teaching, and other special instruction also followed the same rule.

It could be said that academic credits were the hard currency here.

Of course, academic credits could be obtained through tasks and transactions.

You could also give your spoils of war to the school and get academic credits in return.

You could also gamble.

The gambling arena existed for this purpose.

However, what is the value of one hundred academic credits?

Jiang Yuan suddenly remembered that Liu Shengshan's promise to him included one hundred academic credits.

Jiang Yuan opened his student card and checked; sure enough, the one hundred academic credits had already arrived.

"By the way, what is card grading?"

To understand the value of academic credits, Jiang Yuan opened the school's mall.

However, when he saw that an S-grade white quality card actually cost five academic credits, Jiang Yuan was a bit confused.

Then an A-grade blue quality card actually required fifty academic credits?

But what do S-grade and A-grade mean?

However, if this B-grade blue quality material card were bought outside, it would probably be thirty-five lower-grade star spirit stones.

It requires thirty-five academic credits.

In other words, one academic credit is equal to one lower-grade star spirit stone?

It doesn't seem very valuable?

Well, Jiang Yuan, who held a large military order, no longer cared about such small money.

But the problem was that star spirit stones could not be exchanged for academic credits.

Moreover, submitting spoils of war required ensuring that they were genuinely your own spoils.

You couldn't buy them with star spirit stones and then submit them as spoils of war to exchange for academic credits.

"Hey, you don't know that?"

Mu Qianshan was stunned, and Jiang Yuan was also stunned.

"This, should I know?"

"By the way, your Linglong Pagoda is an S-grade white quality equipment card." Mu Qianshan looked at Jiang Yuan with some surprise.

No, you, a guy who can make S-grade quality cards, are telling me you don't know what card grading is?

Is this reasonable?

"It's not written in the book either."

Jiang Yuan remained confused.

"Oh, right."

Mu Qianshan reacted: "But it is written in the academy's books."

"Alright, I'll give you a general idea, and you'll understand."

Mu Qianshan was a bit amused, but he still explained it to Jiang Yuan.

"So, all these cards I've made are S-grade quality?"

"Mu Qianshan, am I also S-grade quality?" Nezha also leaned in, asking curiously.

"Strictly speaking, no."

Before Jiang Yuan could speak, Mu Qianshan on the side chimed in.

"Huh?"

Nezha raised an eyebrow: "I'm not the best?"

"No, it's that you're too good."

Mu Qianshan looked Nezha up and down: "According to your combat power, your grade should be higher than S-grade."

"That's good."

"Hehe~"

After receiving this answer, Nezha was satisfied and lay back down on the sofa.

As long as he was the best, that was all that mattered!

"But the problem is, it seems S-grade is already the highest." Mu Qianshan shrugged at Jiang Yuan.

"Well, it seems there's still a lot to learn." Jiang Yuan was a bit helpless.

He really hadn't known about this card grading before.
