When Qin Chuan walked into the classroom, the atmosphere was rather odd.
The class president, Zhang Yangwang, stood erect with a face that carried pride and smugness, naturally receiving complints from other classmates while repeatedly pushing up his glasses to feign humility.
It wasn't the first ti Qin Chuan had seen Zhang Yangwang's sowhat vain side, but he was still curious about what he had done this ti.
He walked over to his seat beside the plump kid and sat down, then imdiately heard him grinding his teeth.
"It's just that his Spiritual Beast level has reached Lv10, what's there to be so smug about?"
Then, Qin Chuan understood.
At the mont, Spiritual Beasts reaching Level 10 were a minority. Two days ago, a student from the next class achieved it, and the news had spread throughout the whole grade.
Under these circumstances, it was natural for Zhang Yangwang's breakthrough to be sothing to show off.
The plump kid and Zhang Yangwang had long-standing differences. As the class president, Zhang Yangwang looked down on the underperforming student and had repeatedly reported him for copying howork during their first and second years.
"Class president, which district are you in? What's your rank?" a female classmate asked curiously, "With a Spiritual Beast at Level 10, you should be able to rank in the top thousand on the Spiritual Beast List, right?"
"Not bad at all!" Zhang Yangwang nodded with self-satisfaction, "I'm in district 3675, and my Fire Monkey ranks 723rd on the Spiritual Beast List!"
Qin Chuan couldn't help but look up at Zhang Yangwang.
"With that rank, you can get two Experience Gems every day," the inquiring girl said with envy, "Is there any big shot in your district, class president?"
"Actually, there is." Zhang Yangwang laughed, "The top player in our district is called 'Luo'. His Contracted Spiritual Beast killed a Level 12 Shadow Leopard when it was only at Level 7. He's definitely a big shot among big shots."
"Really? That's impressive?"
"Level 12 is the Growth Rank, right? A Juvenile Stage beast killing one at Growth Rank?"
"Yes, that's how amazing he is." Zhang Yangwang crossed his arms, "Speaking of which, I've had the fortune of eting that big shot. Not only is he strong, but he also—"
"Pfft~"
A stifled laugh cut off Zhang Yangwang's words.
Zhang Yangwang couldn't help but look towards Qin Chuan at the back row, annoyance flashing in his eyes, "Qin Chuan, what are you laughing at?"
"I thought of sothing amusing." Qin Chuan replied coolly, then turned and patted the plump kid whose complexion wasn't looking too good, "Co out with for a mont."
Watching Qin Chuan and the plump kid leave the classroom, Zhang Yangwang's mood imdiately improved as he continued to brag about his encounter with the top-ranked "Luo" from their district.
anwhile, Qin Chuan pulled the plump kid along to the school's snack bar, bought two sodas, and took him to a secluded corner, "I rember your Spiritual Beast is about to reach Level 9, right?"
"It reached Level 9 last night." Talking about this made the plump kid's expression brighten up a bit, "But the last level is a bit difficult because there are no Earth Attribute Experience Fruits nearby. Amy's Spiritual Beast hasn't found any either; we can only rely on the Experience Gems awarded at the end to level up slowly."
Amy was the foreign female player the plump kid had encountered; from what he'd told before, her Spiritual Beast had so detection abilities.
"Take these." Without hesitation, Qin Chuan pulled out two Earth Attribute Experience Fruits and handed them to the plump kid.
"Earth Fruit?!" The plump kid's eyes widened in shock, looking at the two fruits in Qin Chuan's hands, his breathing heavy.
With these two fruits, his Spiritual Beast could imdiately reach Level 10!
Then, as if realizing sothing, the plump kid pulled out an Experience Gem, "My Spiritual Beast's rank is beyond a thousand, so I only got one..."
"I'll pay you back in installnts! Ten Experience Gems!" the plump kid bit his lip.
"Who trades five Experience Gems for one Experience Fruit?" Qin Chuan helplessly shook his head, "The market price is four for one. Just give eight; there's no rush."
"Qin Chuan…" Xiao Pang's eyes were slightly red.
He had naturally seen today's trading section too.
With prices not yet stable, if Qin Chuan really wanted to trade, two fruits could completely fetch nine gems, especially since he was paying in installnts.
"Alright, cut the drama," Qin Chuan patted Xiao Pang's shoulder, "Advance to Lv10 as soon as possible, and you'll be able to know the three types of resources required for Spiritual Beast advancent and make preparations early."
"And by reaching Lv10 the next ti you enter the Dream World, you'll receive more rewards during the daily settlent."
"Hmm!" Xiao Pang nodded vigorously, knowing that words of gratitude at this mont were hardly significant. He turned and walked to the snack stand, "Let treat you to a grilled sausage..."
"With extra spice," Qin Chuan said with a grin.
-----------------
By the ti the two finished their grilled sausages and entered the classroom, Zhang Yangwang was still talking non-stop.
However, Xiao Pang's mood had already stabilized, and he was even ignoring Zhang Yangwang's chatter.
Xiao Pang took out his phone and started browsing through the Dream Realm Forum when suddenly he turned to Qin Chuan, "Qin Chuan, the Special Affairs Group has announced the thods for achieving 23 achievents!"
"Hmm?" Qin Chuan's eyes brightened.
He had felt before that the Special Affairs Group couldn't have possibly missed the achievents.
As he had thought, now with the appearance of the Achievent Leaderboard, they finally made their move.
Qin Chuan quickly logged into the Dream Realm Forum and started checking.
The Dream Realm Forum was busier than ever, with the server even stuttering a bit, as revealing 23 achievents at once was truly significant.
After looking through all 23 achievents from start to finish, Qin Chuan realized that all of these were worth either 100 or 200 Achievent Points, likely observed by the mbers of the Special Affairs Group using keys during the daily settlent.
Noting these down could save him quite a few keys.
The Special Affairs Group had not announced achievents with higher Achievent Points, but Qin Chuan believed that they certainly held so, which was to be expected.
In the forum, a few players speculated that the Special Affairs Group had access to better achievents but didn't announce them, expressing their complaints and dissatisfaction. Without the officials needing to intervene, other grateful players greeted their ancestors eighteen generations back.
Other students in the classroom gradually discovered the achievents announced by the Special Affairs Group, and as the classroom quieted down, Zhang Yangwang, realizing it was boring, sat down in silence.
Before long, the cultural subjects teacher entered the classroom for the first lesson of the morning.
Cultural classes began.
As the college entrance examination drew nearer, students who no longer harbored the slim hope of skipping the exams due to the Extraordinary Descent picked up their nearly abandoned studies, setting other matters aside to listen attentively to the lectures, working hard for their futures.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the last class in the afternoon.
Changxing City's Second High School had no dormitories for students; they all commuted, and in accordance with the local Education Bureau's regulations, there were no evening self-study sessions arranged.
In the past, students would have been heading ho at this ti.
But today, they just went out for a al and a little rest before quickly returning to the classroom, each showing an expression of anticipation.
The Extraordinary Course was about to begin.
