147: What are you going to do in broad daylight?

Li Pengfei screamed like a madman, his body twisting like a worm.

Director Chang’s face immediately fell, “Student Li Pengfei, are you questioning the Office of Academic Affairs?”

Director Chang represented the authority of the Office of Academic Affairs; to dare to question him was to oppose Shengjing’s Office of Academic Affairs.

Li Pengfei was instantly dumbfounded; he also realized he had said the wrong thing. In Shengjing, you could offend an Instructor, or a teacher, but you absolutely could not offend the Office of Academic Affairs.

The Office of Academic Affairs controlled various resources and mission quotas.

Whoever offended the Office of Academic Affairs would no longer have any chance at these resources and missions.

“Director Chang, I didn’t mean that. I spoke wrongly. Please, as a great man, overlook my minor transgression.”

Li Pengfei quickly begged for mercy.

But Director Chang was already angry and did not give Li Pengfei a pleasant look.

“You currently have exactly 72,000 points in your card, which now all belong to Xia Qi. Additionally, the Office of Academic Affairs will first give Xia Qi 200,000 points, and you will repay the Office of Academic Affairs. You are limited to six months to pay it off.”

“If not repaid by the due date, your student status will be revoked, and you will be expelled from Shengjing.”

“As for the debt, I will personally visit the Li family to collect it from your family.”

After these words were announced, Director Chang walked away with a grim expression.

He held a high position; even students from top academies treated him with utmost respect.

Li Pengfei dared to question him; his brain must have been eaten by a dog.

After Director Chang left, the other students also departed.

The Freshman Ceremony had concluded here. Everyone returned to their homes and went about their business.

Xia Qi received a transfer of 272,000 points and glanced indifferently at Li Pengfei as he passed him.

As the saying goes, those who make trouble for themselves cannot live. Li Pengfei’s current predicament was entirely his own doing.

Moreover, Xia Qi felt that today’s lesson was still a bit light.

What if he encountered him in the wild one day…

Li Pengfei, lying on the arena, had a ashen face.

He was now not only penniless but also owed 200,000 points.

The 70,000-plus he held in his hand, he had painstakingly saved for an entire year, and now he had to repay 200,000 points within six months.

Where was he going to get so many points?

On the field, the therapist stopped his actions and quietly began to pack up his tools.

“Hey, wait, why aren’t you treating me? My body hurts so much.”

“You haven’t even reattached my limbs yet.”

Li Pengfei frantically shouted at the therapist.

“Student, treatment requires points. You cannot pay for points right now, so I apologize.”

“If it’s really not possible, you can ask a friend to pay for you. I’ll arrange limb reattachment treatment for you immediately.”

As soon as these words came out, Li Pengfei’s face instantly turned green.

In Shengjing, everything required an equivalent exchange.

Treatment also required points, but generally, minor superficial wounds could be healed with a few points, or a dozen points.

More severe injuries would only cost up to a hundred points.

However, for someone like Li Pengfei, with broken arms and legs, it typically required thousands of points.

A thousand points for one arm, in his situation, it would take at least five or six thousand points to fully heal.

But the problem was, he was now 200,000 in debt. Where would he get the points for the therapist?

“Student, I advise you to quickly find someone to borrow some, otherwise, your shattered leg, I don’t know if it can still be saved.”

The therapist pointed to the pile of shattered flesh on the ground and shook his head.

“I have points. Can you make a call for me, to my younger brother, and have him send me points?”

“Alright.”

The therapist reluctantly found the phone on Li Pengfei’s body and then dialed his brother’s number.

Soon, the call connected, and Li Pengfei quickly shouted, “Brother, I urgently need five thousand points right now! Come to the challenge arena quickly, it’s urgent!”

An intense fighting sound came from the phone, “Brother, I’m in a dungeon right now. Wait for me to come out, okay? That’s all for now…”

Then, the call was directly hung up, as if there was indeed an urgent matter.

Li Pengfei’s face turned green with anger. How could he wait? A dungeon could take several hours.

After a few hours, the yellow flower vegetable would be cold.

Seeing this, the therapist also sighed helplessly.

Well, the previous treatment was equivalent to voluntary labor; this student simply had no points to deduct.

The therapist picked up his box and was about to leave. Li Pengfei’s life had been saved, and broken arms and legs were not within his service scope. There was no need to stay longer; the infirmary was busy.

“Wait, wait, I still have classmates…”

Li Pengfei’s body twisted even more violently, but no matter how he shouted, the therapist seemed not to hear him, walking further and further away…

On the way back, Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu looked at Xia Qi with sparkling eyes.

Yun Qingyue said with admiration, “Brother Xia Qi, you are truly amazing now.”

“Yes, your strength, we can no longer completely discern,” Yu Qiu also said, her eyes full of starlight.

The current Xia Qi and the Xia Qi from the college entrance examination were like night and day.

Back then, with their strength, they could still somewhat perceive Xia Qi’s movements.

Now, they couldn’t even react before Xia Qi had already finished.

Such terrifying speed of strength growth made them unable to catch up.

Speaking of which, both girls were Geniuses, and quite excellent ones at that.

But compared to Xia Qi, well, comparing people really made one die of Qi.

They chatted all the way back to the dormitory. Yu Qiu felt unwell and went back to her room to rest.

Yun Qingyue, on the other hand, became invigorated and dove into the training room in the villa.

Xia Qi chuckled, deciding to let her be.

Having a goal to strive for was a good thing.

Just then, his phone suddenly vibrated a few times. It was General Hu who had sent a message.

The content was concise and clear.

“Get ready, departing in one hour.”

Seeing this message, Xia Qi instantly understood.

General Hu had told him earlier that after the Freshman Ceremony, he would take him to the Dragon Battlefield.

The ceremony had just ended, and the message came immediately.

“What do I need to prepare?”

The Dragon Battlefield was not within Shengjing University but in the outside world, so Xia Qi didn’t know what to prepare.

Soon, a reply came, “Money, the more the better.”

In Shengjing, points were the common currency, but outside, money was more useful than points.

This made Xia Qi a bit troubled.

He indeed had 400 million in cash, but that was reserved for buying Talent Potions.

Listening to General Hu’s meaning, the Dragon Battlefield seemed to be quite a money sink, so he would have to get some more cash.

Just then, Lina returned to the dormitory, casually hanging her coat on the hanger, and stretched, displaying her graceful figure.

“Oh dear, why does an Instructor have so much to do? I’m exhausted.”

Xia Qi heard her, brought over a glass of water, and then pulled Lina into the room on the second floor.

“What’s wrong? You being so sneaky makes my heart beat a little fast.”

Lina said, blushing, holding the water glass.

There were still people in the dormitory, and Xia Qi pulled her into the room in broad daylight.

Could it be that he wanted to do something?

This was too exciting?!

“Shh, keep your voice down. Qingyue is in the training room, and Yu Qiu is resting.”

Xia Qi made a shushing gesture, his expression very serious.

“Oh… I see. You wouldn’t be thinking of that, would you?”

Lina immediately whispered softly.

“That? What?”

“Oh, you’re so annoying, you bad person.”

Lina’s cheeks were flushed, and a misty film of spring water covered her eyes.

Xia Qi quickly realized that Lina must have misunderstood.

“What are you thinking? In broad daylight, do you really think I’m a hooligan?”

Xia Qi gently flicked Lina’s forehead.

Why was this girl’s mind filled with such immoral thoughts?

“Then what do you want to do, making it all mysterious?”

Upon hearing that it wasn’t about that, Lina’s mouth immediately drooped, looking very disappointed.

“Alright, then I’ll be direct. Help me cash out.”

After speaking, Xia Qi handed over all the Materials he had accumulated in his storage space over these days to Lina.
