Chapter 49 was quite fruitful!
"Next time, definitely next time!"
Faced with Sun Yifan's request for "tutoring," Yun Che smiled and returned to his dormitory.
"iris?"
"Woo~" Iris emerged from the shadows and shook her fur.
It seemed that being confined to the shadows by Jiang Huailou hadn't had much of an impact on it, which relieved Yun Che.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Encouragingly, he took out two energy cubes and fed them to Kongkong and Iris respectively, saying, "Eat something first."
The two little ones' eyes lit up, and they immediately started eating in small bites.
Only then did Yun Che check the system's prompts and gains.
The rewards for levels one through four are all for mastering seeds and energy blocks.
The difference lies in quantity and quality.
Harvested 20 white mastery seeds, 11 green mastery seeds, 50 white dragon attribute energy cubes, and 40 green ones.
The rewards for the fifth and sixth levels are slightly different.
[Fifth Floor: TM for String Shot x1, Master Seed for Blue x3, Special Orion Berry for Blue x1]
[Sixth Floor: TM 'Air Blade' x1, Mastery Seed 'Purple' x1, Special Berry 'Blue' x1]
"Tsk!"
Looking at these rewards, Yun Che's smile stretched almost to his ears.
He likes these "cumulative" type of tasks.
The last time it was a small-scale locust plague, this time it's the Jianghuai Tower challenge.
Although the system can sometimes act erratically, it really does give rewards!
Putting everything else aside, the 35 mastery seeds alone replenished the losses from the previous period, especially the consumption of green mastery seeds.
Moreover, there were 3 blue mastery seeds and even 1 purple mastery seed that Yun Che had never seen before!
This is the first purple-quality item he has ever received from the system!
In addition, a total of 90 energy blocks were added, which greatly replenished the "inventory".
With such a small appetite and limited daily nutritional needs, 90 energy cubes seem like a drop in the ocean.
But something is better than nothing.
There are also two special fruits.
Special pomegranate fruits that enhance dragon-attribute energy, and special phoenix pear fruits that continuously strengthen power.
These are all good stuff.
At last.
These are two move learning machines!
Although the skills recorded by these two TMs are not high-powered skills.
In particular, the Air Blade cannot be used by either the Sky Blade or the Iris Blade.
Flying-type skills are somewhat difficult for the two little guys.
But what Yun Che values more is the Bug-type skill that doesn't have any power, Silk Shot!
It shares the same name as Kongkong's racial skill, Silk Spit.
However, having the experience of combining the skills Dragon's Breath and Dragon's Breath into Dragon's Breath Resonance, Yun Che clearly had high expectations.
Will this bring about any further changes?
You'll know once you use it at the right time.
Seeing that the previously empty system space had finally become "full", Yun Che, a seasoned "hoarder", was even happier.
This entrance exam will not only reward you with system rewards, but also with Jianghuai University credits.
The level credit rewards during the mutation period are the most basic.
The first level is worth 1 point, the second level is worth 2 points, the third level is worth 4 points, and so on. Yun Che has earned a total of 63 credits!
Moreover, it seems that the tenth place winner receives extra credits.
What these credits will buy is currently unknown, but compared to students who passed three rounds and only received 7 credits, or four rounds and received 15 credits...
They've already won at the starting line.
"Based on this credit calculation method, you can get 64 credits by passing the seventh level!"
"Chirp?" Kongkong raised its head.
What are academic credits?
Iris also cast a questioning glance at her.
Yun Che smiled and said, "Credits, of course, are the points you can get by studying."
"grumble..."
Oh...
As soon as Kongkong heard about studying, he immediately lost interest.
Yun Che's thick books made its eyes dizzy, and it couldn't appreciate the "fun" in them at all. It still preferred training.
"Huh?" (Studying?)
Unlike Kongkong, Iris showed interest because it sensed Yun Che's emphasis on "credits".
"Kongkong, to reward you for your 'heroic' performance this time, I'll give you something nice!"
"Chirp? (◕▿◕✿)"
Upon hearing the words "good stuff," Kongkong, who was already itching to train his body, sprang up from the ground, his large, light blue eyes blinking as he looked at him.
Yun Che smiled and took out the "Aura Belt" and tied it around Kong Kong's head.
「叽！ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ」
As soon as he put on the energy belt and tightened it, Kongkong felt as if he had become more motivated and wanted to train even more.
Fighting!!
With this momentum, if luck strikes, it's not impossible to "sweep away" Jianghuai Tower.
"Waaah~"
Iris gently tugged at Yun Che's trouser leg.
"What's wrong, Iris?" Yun Che squatted down and gently stroked the little guy's head.
The "gift" prepared for Kongkong didn't include irises, making Yun Che feel guilty for not treating everyone equally.
However, he believed that Iris would understand, and if there was something suitable for it, Yun Che would certainly not be stingy.
"Woo~" Iris didn't feel uncomfortable, nor was she angry or jealous. She just pointed to the books on the table.
Some were new books issued by the school, while others were books and materials that Yun Che brought himself.
"You want a book?"
Yun Che was somewhat taken aback when he learned of Iris's needs.
"Woo!" Iris nodded.
"You...can you understand it?"
After a moment's hesitation, Yun Che smiled and said, "Fine, go ahead and look if you want. Actually, the pictures are quite nice."
As he spoke, he took two relatively simple books and handed them to the little guy.
I just used it to pass the time.
"Woo~" Iris cried out happily, gently rubbing against Yun Che's ankle, and then jumped into the shadows with two books in her hands.
"Well..."
Watching Iris disappear into the shadows, Yun Che opened and closed his mouth, wanting to remind her... reading in such a dark place is bad for your eyes.
However, Iris's movements reminded Yun Che.
He is the one who needs to absorb knowledge the most right now.
Previously, there weren't many ways to acquire knowledge.
Now it has a library built up over a century of history by Jianghuai University!
Moreover, he also possesses a special library card from Jianghuai University Library, a gift from Dr. Niu.
Thinking of this, he immediately grabbed the bewildered Kong Kong and headed straight for the library.
...
When Yun Che left the library, he was carrying five books.
"A Compilation of Uncommon Extraordinary Creatures in Pingyang Province," "Huaijiang! Huaijiang!", "Analysis of the Habits of Ghost-Attribute Extraordinary Creatures," "Illustrated Guide to Sub-Dragon Extraordinary Creatures," and "Analysis of the Extraordinary Creature Purple Amber Cat."
The latter two books were special categories, which Yun Che was able to borrow thanks to the library card given to him by Dr. Niu.
When Yun Che saw the vast collection of books in the Jianghuai University library, he wished he could immerse himself in the library and stuff all the knowledge into his head.
But that's obviously unrealistic.
He also has classes, work, training, and meditation...
However, reading doesn't require any special preparation of time or place; you can read anywhere, anytime.
For example, he can use it to read books on his way back to the Lanjiang training base by bus.
Today is the second day of school. Apart from the entrance test, there's nothing else going on at school. It's still free time to explore and get familiar with the campus.
So he simply took a car back to the breeding base.
It wasn't for work.
Before the start of the semester, he deliberately increased his daily working hours so that even if he didn't work for the next week, it wouldn't have a big impact.
The reason I went back was solely for training.
The class schedule has been distributed; there are no classes tomorrow morning.
Although Jianghuai University is large, it is not the wilderness after all. You can't just find a small grove to train in, otherwise... you might encounter "wild" couples and be subjected to "dog food attacks".
Moreover, Yun Che doesn't really want people to see much of his training.
It's still more comfortable to go back to the familiar riverside.
I closed the book and looked out the window.
"When will it be so convenient to have a pet to get around with..."
Thinking of this, a thought suddenly occurred to me.
Don't Blue River Breeding Base and Dr. Niu's Research Institute have any pet animals for transportation?
