Xie Feng smiled. “The specialty of Agricultural University is being able to eat good food and wear good clothes. We have the most of whatever resource you can name. When it comes to the other universities and military units, they might end up fighting like lunatics for a fighting suit with the same properties, but we’re the Monster University.

“When it comes to products related to monster materials, be it fighting suits or gene medicine, the prices are cheaper by half compared to the outside. Even new students can get their hands on them.”

As he spoke, a few assistant lecturers came over to give them strange-looking helmets.

The bottom was shaped like that of a normal helmet, but on the top was a transparent glass cup. It looked like a bowl used in circus performances.

After that, the assistant lecturer gave each new student twenty monster coins with “100” written on them. He gestured to them. “Put them in the cups on your head.”

The biochemical fighting suit stuck closely to their bodies and did not have any gaps or pockets. If they did not wear strategic belts, there would indeed be no place for them to stuff in the monster coins.

Everyone could only put the monster coins in the cup on their heads. It filled up approximately one-tenth of the space.

They looked at each other, and their motions caused clanging sounds; the coins were moving in the cups. The new students laughed.

Xie Feng was the only one who did not laugh. He stroked his chin and sank into deep thought. “The admission test for the new students each year is crazy tough. The lecturers come up with various small games to engage the students in a battle, which helps them see the best talents among them. What are they trying to do this year?”

Very soon, Jiang Ming announced the answer through the screen.

“Now, every student has two thousand monster coins. This is your initial capital. From now on, you will need monster coins to buy everything for your cultivation needs. This is the price list.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The price for the martial arts course lectures and life services appeared on the screen.

“What? You need to pay one hundred and five monster coins to eat the five-star blood nourishment meal made of superbeast blood? Doesn’t that mean that our monster coins will only last us around ten meals, which is not even one week?”

“If you want to stay in the single-unit luxurious dorm next to the lecturer’s residential area because it has the highest density of spirit energy, you need to pay two hundred monster coins a day? Is this a student dorm or a CEO’s suite?!”

“If you want to buy a supreme-grade saber that the creation course meticulously created using superbeast spines embedded with crystals, you need to pay 9,999 monster coins? We don’t have enough money!”

“The craziest is this one. I want to be under Cold-blooded Jiang Min’s tutelage, but his requirements for his pupils are that the students must have twenty thousand monster coins! Don’t we just have two thousand coins each?”

“I want to become Griffin Li Yingzi’s pupil, but her requirement is 19,000 monster coins!”

When the students saw the list of prices, they were dumbfounded.

They had just received twenty monster coins, but the delight they had gained because of the heavy weight on their heads disappeared.

The lecturers in the martial arts course were practically all Heaven Realm elites, but even Heaven Realm were divided into three stars.

The students noticed that if they wanted to have outstanding people like six-star superhuman Cold-blooded Jiang Ming or a five-star superhuman Griffin Li Yingzi become their tutor, the lowest price was fifteen thousand monster coins.

Even if they wanted a normal five-star superhuman to become their tutor, the new students needed to pay from five thousand to ten thousand monster coins.

As for the teachers who did not ask for any monster coins, most of them were young lecturers who had just recently joined the university as lecturers. They were four-star superhumans.

Of course, even if a student did not have a single monster coin, the university would not let them go hungry or have no roof above their heads. They would still be provided basic food and dorms.

However, the free basic deals on the screen had really bland food. The offered dorms had around twenty people staying in a room, so it would be as packed as a hornet’s nest. It would be better if they just slept outdoors!

Jiang Ming smiled. “Everyone, don’t worry. The university will definitely provide you the chance to get a lot of monster coins. If you listen to classes seriously, answer questions proactively, take up tests and assistant lecturer positions, take up social practices outside university, or go out into the fog to hunt or gather samples, you will definitely be able to enjoy treatment that is equivalent to your strength.

“You can also fight fairly among yourselves to get each other’s monster coins, but you must do so reasonably.

“Now, you have a chance to get a large number of monster coins.

“Do you see the cups on your heads. Your monster coins are all placed inside. The rules are simple. In the next half an hour, you can communicate freely on the field. Think of a way to put other people’s monster coins into your cup. If you’re strong enough to be able to get hundreds of students’ monster coins, you can do so.

“The biochemical fighting suit you’re wearing has relatively high defense. Even your helmet is made of the sturdiest monster shell infused with alloy. So, you don’t have to worry about being injured. Just fight with everything you have!

“If you can’t handle it, as long as you surrender and hand over all your monster coins, you can get out of the field to rest. Even if you don’t have monster coins, you will have no problem in joining the basic classes and your basic needs being ensured.

“Do you understand now? The match will start in five minutes. If you want to become my pupil, you must think of a way to defeat ten people and grab all of their monster coins!”

Jiang Ming’s voice was fierce, and it stirred up the passion in the youngsters’ blood.

‘Everyone has two thousand monster coins. We just need to defeat ten—no, nine people to get twenty thousand monster coins… That doesn’t… sound very hard, is it?’ Meng Chao pondered over it.

He had seen Blade Dancer Gu Jianbo’s price.

The future Ultimate Style’s pioneer was still a young lecturer who kept a very low profile. He did not have any requirements, and they were free to choose him if they wanted.

But since Agricultural University was a place rich with resources, Meng Chao wanted to sleep in a CEO suite, eat five-star set meals, and have the lecturers in Agricultural University’s creation course tailor an amazing weapon made of superbeast materials just for him.

He could never have enough money.

But after thinking about it, Meng Chao noticed that the seemingly simple game was not actually that easy.

“I don’t know how these lecturers managed to come up with this. The admission test’s rules just get harder and harder every year,” Xie Feng said with a wry smile.

It was the tradition of the martial arts course that every year, when new students were admitted, a competition would be organized to gauge their strength.

In the beginning, it was just a simple and crude fight with no rules.

But it was far too easy for the powerful people to form teams, while the weak ones worked together, and the sleazy ones stood by the side waiting to reap benefits. The lecturers were then unable to achieve their goal of understanding each student’s potential and fighting power.

Hence, they constantly changed the rules for the admission test.

And every year, the new students were filled with wishful thinking, hoping that they could find all sorts of loopholes and use the rules to their own benefit.

Hence, a year after the students found a loophole, the lecturers would think of ways to cover it. By then, the game rules had become ridiculous.

“If you want to get under Jiang Ming or Li Yingzi’s tutelage, you have to get twenty thousand monster coins, which means that you have to defeat ten students. This means that the strong ones won’t just stand by and do nothing. It’s useless to intimidate other people with your presence alone. You have to attack from the first second itself,” Xie Feng said.

“But this doesn’t mean that you can definitely snatch the monster coins from the ten students you defeat. There’s a possibility that while you’re fighting, your monster coins will fly out, and a third party will snatch them, just like how a third army can swoop in to reap the kills after two armies were heavily injured fighting against each other.

“To the normal students with only average strength, two thousand monster coins won’t be enough to do anything. They will definitely fight to the death.

“Look at the structure of the cup. It’s small at the opening, but big at the base. When the twenty monster coins are placed inside, they’ll be stuck at the bottom. If you don’t send someone flying, it’ll be difficult to make them lose their monster coins.

“But the cup only allows you to fit in at most one hundred and fifty monster coins. Meng Chao, think about it, what does this mean?”

Meng Chao’s thoughts raced. He immediately said, “This isn’t fair to the strong ones.”

“That’s right. If you get twenty thousand monster coins, it means that your cup will definitely be filled.” Xie Feng gritted his teeth. “When there are only twenty monster coins in the cup and they’re stuck at the bottom, everyone can do whatever they please. As long as they don’t do something like making a 360 degree flip in the air, they don’t need to worry about their monster coins spilling out.

“But when you have more than one hundred monster coins in the cup, you have to be careful even while you walk. If you shake in the slightest, you might cause monster coins to spill out. How are you supposed to fight like that?

“In the beginning, the average students might be worried about the strong ones and not dare to provoke them.

“But when the strong ones have their cups full of monster coins, all of them will be unable to help but think, even if I can’t win against you, can’t I force you to move your head and make a few of your coins drop? After all, the goal of the weak ones isn’t to win against the strong ones. It’s to steal a few monster coins. That’s all they’ll really want!

“The strong ones will have their limbs tied if they fight in that sort of situation. They’ll need to have perfect control over their muscles and bones. In fact, their control needs to reach miraculous degrees if they want to secure more than one hundred monster coins!

“Wait.” Meng Chao thought about it and said, “It’s still not enough, even if you have more than one hundred monster coins. Jiang Ming and Li Yingzi both want nearly two hundred monster coins. You can’t keep that in one cup. This means that when you reach the end of the match, the strong ones not only have to have more than one hundred monster coins on their heads, they also need to carry monster coins in their hands.”

“No way… Isn’t that too cruel?” Xie Feng was stunned.

Meng Chao pondered it. “If we fight normally, even the Four Great Kings will have a hard time gathering two hundred monster coins. Then, can we bypass the rules and look for an abnormal way to fight?”

Xie Feng frowned and said, “Abnormal way to fight? You’ll be forming parties or waiting to steal benefits, then. With this set of rules, waiting by the side won’t work. When the competition starts, I have to work hard to snatch other people’s monster coins and fill up my cup first before anything else. As for forming parties…”

“Forming parties won’t work.” Meng Chao shook his head and said, “When you reach the end of the game, the Four Great Kings will definitely have the fullest cups. At that time, when you win against a normal person, you might only get three to five monster coins, but if you win against one of the Four Great Kings, you might get more than one hundred monster coins. Are you sure you won’t end up fighting against each other?”

Xie Feng thought about it and became even gloomier.

Meng Chao laughed and walked out of the preparation room. “Thank goodness that I never thought about getting under Jiang Ming or Li Yingzi’s tutelage.

“Time’s up. Now, everyone will be watching the Four Great Kings’ performance!”
