40: Horror Credits
The Ten Thousand Bone Legion belongs to the Demon Race, and their awakened Class is the Demon Attribute, which is exclusive to the Demon Race?
The sheer amount of information made Lu Yuan unable to react for a moment.
Of the nine ghost puppet soldiers, excluding the Five Elements of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, the Heavens Punishment Legion is Lightning, the Blood Slaughter Legion is Blood, and the Wind Splitting Legion is the Wind Attribute.
As for the Ten Thousand Bone Legion, Lu Yuan had always thought they were an enhanced version of the Skeleton Warrior, but they turned out to be the Demon Attribute!
"Undying Body is a Demon Attribute Mystic Tier High-Grade Spirit Skill. I am very interested in Practitioners with rare attributes, so I have specifically researched a lot of information."
Tang Jinghui said.
He is knowledgeable and familiar with the weaknesses of all fierce beasts; calling him a walking encyclopedia wouldn't be an exaggeration!
"If you skillfully utilize your Puppet Corps, with your current strength, you have a chance to defeat a five-star Xuan Gang Realm Practitioner, or perhaps even higher." Tang Jinghui stood up and pushed the organized Demon Cores toward Lu Yuan.
"Mhm."
Lu Yuan nodded, now knowing that the Ten Thousand Bone Legion was the Demon Attribute.
After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Lu Yuan headed to the school's Mission Hall.
Pengcheng University allows students to earn academic credit not only by hunting Fierce Beasts but also by taking on missions.
The difficulty of the mission depends on the academic credit awarded. Additionally, students can also post missions, such as finding a temporary boyfriend to appease parents at home, or hunting Fierce Beasts to obtain a specific body part.
The sky was overcast and drizzling, and students streamed continuously into the Mission Hall.
"Hello, Senior Sister, I'd like to rent a three-bedroom, one-living room dorm."
Many freshmen returned from the No Mans Land, preparing to spend 1,000 academic credit to rent a three-bedroom, one-living room dorm to live in.
After all, living in a six-person dorm was too uncomfortable and inconvenient.
A three-bedroom, one-living room apartment was much more comfortable, and freshmen usually split the rent among three people, costing 330 academic credit per person per month.
"I'll take a Detached Villa!"
Freshmen and upperclassmen alike subconsciously looked toward the speaker.
A Detached Villa costs 10,000 academic credit per month. Such a high price meant even many upperclassmen couldn't afford to live there!
And the person who spoke was a freshman.
"Isn't that Han Junchen, the disciple the Principal just accepted?"
Someone recognized Han Junchen.
His white hair was too eye-catching, and Han Junchen was erratic, like a lunatic, often saying things that defied comprehension.
Including, but not limited to:
"Is cramming at the last minute a form of foot fetishism?"
"If a pornography censor watches short videos after work, is that considered overtime or illegal?"
"They all say there is a house of gold in books, so why is everyone using e-books now and nobody buys physical books?"
"Lunatic!"
Everyone in the Mission Hall subconsciously backed away from Han Junchen, only to then discover that the academic credit on his student ID was as high as 300,000!
"Ah, he earned 300,000 academic credit in four days in the No Mans Land?"
"This guy is pretty amazing. He truly lives up to being the student personally chosen by the Principal!"
"Aside from his mental issues, he is definitely one of the top students among this year's freshmen!"
Seeing Han Junchen, who had awakened the Gold Attribute Combat Class and broken through to Qi Refining Eighth Star, possessing 300,000 academic credit, the freshmen were genuinely envious.
This was a Detached Villa!
Pengcheng University has over a thousand Detached Villas in total, and only third and fourth-year upperclassmen usually live in them.
For Han Junchen, a freshman, to be able to live in a Detached Villa meant he was far ahead of them and even most second-year upperclassmen!
"Are you sick? Stop asking me idiotic questions!" The Senior Sister handling Han Junchen's transaction was going crazy.
She admitted that Han Junchen was formidable and a genius, but his mental issues were also severe!
In just three or four minutes of processing the transaction, he had asked her over a dozen idiotic questions... "Hello, Senior Sister, I'm here to process the Detached Villa residency application." Lu Yuan walked up to the window next to Han Junchen.
"Lu Yuan?"
Compared to Han Junchen, Lu Yuan, who took the national martial arts examination first place, obviously had a greater reputation.
Even many upperclassmen recognized him.
"Han Junchen earned 300,000 academic credit in the No Mans Land. How much did Lu Yuan earn?"
Someone subconsciously compared Han Junchen and Lu Yuan. Originally, the comparison should have been with Chu Wushe, but Chu Wushe enrolled in Imperial Capital University.
"One-star Xuan Gang Realm! Lu Yuan has broken through to the Xuan Gang Realm!"
"That fast? I saw the news this morning that Chu Wushe had just broken through to the Qi Refining Realm Peak, and Lu Yuan has already broken through to the Xuan Gang Realm!"
"380,000 points!"
Just as the students were astonished by Lu Yuan's breakthrough to the Xuan Gang Realm, Lu Yuan's academic credit appeared on the small screen at the window.
Exactly 380,000!
"Another rich and willful person coming to live in a Detached Villa."
"To be precise, they are willful because they have academic credit. If I had 380,000 academic credit, I'd live in a Detached Villa too; I've never lived in one my whole life!"
While waiting for the Senior Sister to process his transaction, Lu Yuan heard Han Junchen speaking next to him.
"Hey buddy, let me ask you a question."
Lu Yuan looked at Han Junchen, who had white hair and was making the Senior Sister at the window nearly overheat with frustration.
Since Han Junchen was accepted as a disciple by the Principal and earned 300,000 academic credit in four days in the No Mans Land, it proved that he was far from as simple as he appeared on the surface!
What confused Lu Yuan was why Han Junchen pretended to be foolish and simple-minded.
"Go ahead."
Since he was idle anyway, Lu Yuan didn't mind chatting with Han Junchen for a bit.
"The Bible was written by God, so does that count as being psychotic?" Han Junchen asked sincerely, looking eager for knowledge.
"I don't know, but I also want to ask you a question."
Lu Yuan shook his head.
"Please speak."
"If a person whose forearm has been amputated gets into a fight, is that considered an elbow strike or a punch?"
Hiss
Han Junchen gasped, thinking he had met his match.
Lu Yuan, right in front of him, could ask such a sharp question, one that even he couldn't answer!
"Take your time thinking about it." Lu Yuan ignored Han Junchen and took a card from the Senior Sister's hand.
"Junior Brother Lu Yuan, the number of the Detached Villa you randomly drew is very auspicious
Detached Villa No. 66!" the Senior Sister smiled.
"Thank you, Senior Sister."
Lu Yuan looked at the card printed with '66'.
"Senior Sister, where do I exchange the academic credit for killing Demon Race members?" Lu Yuan asked.
The Senior Sister, named Wang Manman, who was working part-time at the Mission Hall, grew solemn upon hearing the word "Demon Race."
"Did Junior Brother Lu Yuan go to the military?" Wang Manman looked confused.
Killing Demon Race members can be exchanged for academic credit, and the reward is much higher than for Fierce Beasts of the same realm.
The places where Demon Race members are usually killed are border cities, which is the frontline!
The military permits students from the Five Great Top Academies to join, even before completing their studies, so Wang Manman subconsciously assumed Lu Yuan had gone to the military.
"No, I killed them in the No Mans Land," Lu Yuan said.
"That's amazing! What strength were the Demon Race members you killed? Give me the Demon Cores."
Wang Manman looked at Lu Yuan with admiration.
She was a third-year upperclassman, a four-star Divine Power Realm Practitioner, and she had never killed a Demon Race member to this day.
"There are quite a few, but my teacher helped me organize them." Lu Yuan took out the Demon Cores from his storage ring.
In an instant, the Demonic Energy in the Mission Hall became dense!
Wang Manman: "???"
The students present: "???"
"J-just a moment." Wang Manman took the Demon Cores, which were placed in different boxes, and called several colleagues over to calculate the academic credit.
"Are those Divine Power Realm Demon Cores?"
A third-year upperclassman looked at the pigeon-egg-sized Demon Core and estimated that the Demon Race member's strength was at Eight-star Divine Power Realm before death!
Seeing Lu Yuan take out so many Demon Cores, Han Junchen's face twitched violently next to him.
"How did he kill Divine Power Realm Demon Race members?" Han Junchen wondered, habitually stroking the bracelet on his wrist, which was vividly carved with four Fierce Beasts of different shapes, all looking quite docile.
After several long minutes passed, Wang Manman returned the Demon Cores to Lu Yuan.
"Junior Brother Lu Yuan, these Demon Cores are worth 400,000 academic credit in total. You now have 780,000 academic credit!"
780,000!
Hearing this terrifying number, even the upperclassmen couldn't help but swallow, staring intently at Lu Yuan's student ID!
