CHAPTER 629: CHAPTER 35: LEVEL UP

"Have you heard? Zhu Xiaoxian from C-Block has completed all the basic courses."

"Zhu Xiaoxian? Who’s that? Never heard of her before."

"Whether you’ve heard of her or not, starting today she’s also become a numero uno in North Campus."

"Why? Just because she completed all the basic courses? What’s the big deal. There are over five hundred people at North Campus, with no less than seven hundred primary students. Why would a single primary student attract so much attention?"

"What do you know? Completing a hundred percent of the courses means she gets to learn a special skill. Who knows what kind of special skill someone named Zhu Xiaoxian will learn?"

In B-Block, Xu Lan Ya slammed her keyboard against the screen, venting her anger. With a "bang," the screen was thoroughly smashed, leaving her apartment in complete disarray.

Her brows furrowed, she murmured, "It’s only been half a year since she joined, and she’s already completed all the basic courses. If this continues, she could possibly finish all the intermediate courses within three years. That one remaining slot for an advanced student looks mysterious and tight. Looks like Ye Heng has gotten lucky this time."

After venting, Xu Lan Ya called over her faithful admirer. This time, she didn’t play hard to get but threw herself directly into Ye Heng’s arms. After an intense moment together, Ye Heng caressed the softness in front of Xu Lan Ya.

"All you know is to take advantage of me. Tell me, when will you take care of those damn girls for me?" Xu Lan Ya’s face flushed red, her breath fragrant as orchids, her bewitching eyes glimmering with seduction.

Ye Heng, recalling Wang Shuai’s warning, also had reservations. With only two advanced students in the entire North Campus, while he was on par with Wang Shuai in strength, Wang Shuai was hearty and popular on Campus. If it really came to a head-on confrontation, and considering Wang Shuai’s backing, he would probably be at a disadvantage.

Knowing his own background was far inferior to Wang Shuai’s and despite relishing the fact that he had Wang Shuai’s fiancée, Ye Heng dared not relax. "There’s no need to rush. If I directly interfere in women’s affairs, it would look disgraceful if word got out. It’s better for you to advance to an advanced student as soon as possible. With our combined strength, we can call the shots in North Campus," Ye Heng, who genuinely advanced from primary to advanced student, knew better than anyone that in North Campus, strength is everything.

"Easier said than done. You know very well that I’ve only completed half of the intermediate courses; advancing isn’t that easy," Xu Lan Ya secretly scorned Ye Heng’s caution towards Wang Shuai but remained calm, knowing very well this man was infatuated with her and might resort to unconventional methods to help her become an advanced student. Once she made it, not only would she enjoy privileges in North Campus but across the country she would enjoy various legal privileges. Not to mention, she could also participate in the selection for Cangqiong Palace.

"What’s the rush? Have you forgotten? Although I didn’t finish a hundred percent of the basic courses, I did complete all of the intermediate courses, and I also have a special skill. With me around, you’ll breakthrough in less than two years," Ye Heng chuckled and pulled Xu Lan Ya closer for another affectionate embrace.

"Don’t be hasty. First, tell me, having completed all the intermediate courses, what special skill did you get?" asked Xu Lan Ya sweetly.

"Wanna know? It’s quite simple. It’s the ability to change the spiritual power attributes of plants - turning medicinal herbs into poisonous herbs without altering their appearance. Just think, what if someone consumed such altered herbs?" Ye Heng, in the face of beauty, couldn’t keep his secret and blurted out his trump card.

"Oh, isn’t that just like my grandfather? He once turned tobacco into poppies..." In the apartment, all that remained was the wondrous sound of heavy breathing.

"Xiao Xian, you’re really lucky, able to learn a special skill," Yiyi sat down at the dining table, heartily enjoying breakfast. Yiyi was directly promoted to an intermediate student without completing all the basic courses. Like most students, she could only learn ordinary skills suited to her. Since the Reverse Genius Class started, no more than five people were able to learn special skills.

"Have you decided which skill you’re going to learn?" Xuerou arrived not long ago, but seeing the reaction of other students and Romeo One’s explanation, special skills seemed rare. Xuerou was progressing fast in her basic courses, and she was recently helping Romeo One in the C-Block resource supply center, repairing mechanical equipment and malfunctioning computers for students, gaining Heaven-defying Value while picking up a lot of information.
