Chapter 346: Points Application
Corovina sat upright and looked straight ahead. She put on an extremely focused posture and stared at the virtual screen in front of her. Her hands did not stop moving, looking like she was working seriously. In fact, her mind was not on the virtual screen at all. Instead, she kept looking diagonally ahead from the corner of her eye.
There, Star Cloud Academy’s Dean Lin Mingdao was surrounded by a few higher-ups of the academy and the Martial Arts Branch Dean, Semondi, as well as the other branch leaders. The group of people looked around casually while discussing something.
Corovina did not have the energy to listen to what they were discussing. She only watched their actions from the corner of her eye and kept praying in her mind.
“Don’t walk over! Don’t walk over! Don’t walk over…”
Not far from this group of academy leaders, there was a simple wooden shelf with a lot of paper information on it.
On the surface, the information on this shelf was neat and tidy, looking very refreshing.
However, Corovina knew very well that under that bright appearance, there was a lot of junk stuffed in the inner shelf.
If these leaders walked over and discovered what was hidden in the inner layer, she would be dead!
‘Damn it!’ Corovina cursed in her mind.
She had originally taken advantage of the fact that the students were still in school to settle most of the work she had accumulated in the morning and planned to rest a little and eat some snacks. She did not expect that the academy’s dean and the branch leaders would actually make a sudden inspection!
Fortunately, she had seen it in advance through the surveillance cameras. Otherwise, if these top leaders saw that she was actually eating snacks during work, she would be dead!
‘Damn it!’ Corovina cursed again.
Why did these terrifying leaders suddenly think of coming here to inspect today? Moreover, they did not even inform her in advance!
Corovina cursed in her mind while paying close attention to the direction of the leaders from the corner of her eye.
However, no matter how she prayed in her heart, those leaders still approached that damned information shelf bit by bit. One of them even stretched out his hand, planning to take out a piece of paper information to read.
Seeing that hand reach out, Corovina’s heart immediately rose to her throat.
Oh God!
If she did not remember wrongly, there was a bag of freshly bought potato chips below that damned paper!
However, at this moment, Corovina could not think of any reason to stop him. A few drops of cold sweat instantly appeared on her forehead, and she could only watch helplessly as that hand touched the information.
Beep!
At this moment, a special crisp sound suddenly sounded from the virtual screen in front of Corovina, instantly attracting everyone’s attention.
The group of leaders turned to look at Corovina and saw that she was looking over nervously. There were even beads of sweat on her forehead. They could not help but laugh.
“Haha, girl, you don’t have to be so nervous. We’re just here to take a look.” Lin Mingdao waved at Corovina and smiled gently.
“Little girl?” Corovina had a strange expression.
She was almost 40 years old this year. How could she be considered a girl?
However, Dean Lin was already past 70 this year. She had no objections if he called her a girl.
Seeing that Corovina was a little stunned, Lin Mingdao smiled and pointed at the virtual screen in front of her.
“Continue your work. Ignore us.”
“Ah? Oh…”
Corovina replied in a daze. She looked down at the virtual screen and immediately shouted in surprise.
“Oh my god!”
The group of academy leaders immediately turned their attention to her.
The Martial Arts Branch Head, Semondi, frowned slightly and said in slight dissatisfaction, “What happened? Why are you making a fuss?”
Corovina looked up at Dean Semondi and lowered her head to look at the virtual screen. She thought for a moment and could not help but say, “Dean… Dean, a student has applied…”
“Place an application?” Dean Semondi frowned even more, “Isn’t this very normal? Many students have tried to use points to exchange for martial techniques in the past few years. Could it be that you’re still not proficient?”
“No, he’s not using points to exchange for martial techniques, but martial techniques to exchange for points…” Corovina shook her head and explained.
“Oh?” Semondi raised his eyebrows in surprise, “A senior student?”
Because the senior students had already studied in Star Cloud Academy for at least a year, many of them had already learned some martial techniques through the academy’s martial arts database. Therefore, the students who cultivated their martial technique more deeply could naturally exchange the martial techniques they had obtained through the database for points according to the rules.
This was the preferential policy of the Martial Arts Branch for those senior students.
Otherwise, it would be a little unfair to them if they were to be on the same starting line as the new students.
“No, it’s this year’s new student…”
“New student?” Semondi was stunned, “Is there actually a new student willing to contribute his martial technique?”
Although this martial arts points exchange system indeed had this meaning, the Martial Arts Branch basically did not expect any students to do this.
There were many ways to obtain points, but the secrets of the martial techniques that he had personally grasped were gone after he contributed.
Therefore, normally speaking, no student would be willing to contribute their martial technique.
Not only was Dean Semondi stunned, but the other leaders of the Martial Arts Branch also revealed stunned expressions. Sun Xiangren, who was mainly responsible for the students’ work, immediately leaned over.
“Which new student is willing to do this?”
“No…” Unexpectedly, Corovina actually shook her head, “It’s not a new martial technique submitted by a student, but a martial technique exchanged from the database…”
“How is that possible?!” The leaders of the Martial Arts Branch were all stunned. Semondi widened his eyes and said, “How many days has it been since school started? Even if he exchanged for a martial technique, it’s already not bad that he can master it in such a short period of time. Could he elevate it to a higher level?”
“That’s right. To submit such an application in such a short period of time, it seems that this student really can’t hold it in and is a little arrogant.” Sun Xiangren shook his head and sighed.
The other leaders of the Martial Arts Branch nodded in agreement.
Indeed, it had only been less than a week since school started. Even if a new student exchanged for a martial technique immediately, it was impossible for him to cultivate this martial technique to a level that exceeded the database in a short period of time. It was simply a joke to propose an exchange for points now.
“There’s no need to jump to conclusions.” Lin Mingdao smiled and said to Corovina, “Since this student has already applied, let’s evaluate his application according to the procedures. If it doesn’t work, reject the application. Wouldn’t it be better if it works?”
Since the dean had said so, the others naturally could not say anything.
Semondi thought for a moment, then reached out to Corovina.
“Come, show me the martial technique he applied for. I’ll personally check it for him.”
Corovina hurriedly pulled out this application and enlarged the virtual screen to show everyone.
With Semondi as the leader, all the leaders of the Martial Arts Branch focused their gazes on the core content of this application—the martial technique.
“March God-Killing Palm? Although this palm technique is an F-rank cultivation method, it’s also somewhat unique. If ordinary students want to completely master it, they’ll probably have to spend at least a month or two. How can he…”
Semondi shook his head and glanced at the description of the March God-Killing Palm on the application. Just as he was about to criticize, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Sun Xiangren and the other leaders of the Martial Arts Branch also revealed surprised expressions. All of them looked at the content of the application in disbelief.
In this application, this student had clearly modified the March God-Killing Palm and even proposed a more detailed and deeper understanding. It had clearly far exceeded the extent of the original March God-Killing Palm in the database.
Most importantly, the various modifications proposed by this student were actually very reasonable. In fact, after thinking about it carefully, they were very perfect. It simply raised this mere F-rank cultivation method by more than a level!
Sun Xiangren and Sun Xiangren looked at each other and saw the meaning in each other’s eyes. Then, they turned to look at the top of the application.
The name of the student who proposed this application was clearly marked on it.
It was Chu Nan.
