Last September.

  Teacher Xu Bo promised Li Yuan that if he broke into the top ten in his grade, he would be rewarded with a first-class scholarship of 100,000 Blue Star Coins.

  If you rush into the top five in grade, you will be rewarded with a special scholarship of 500,000 Blue Star Coins.

  "Just one more person short." Li Yuan sighed quietly.

  He didnt feel any regret in his heart, he had done his best and there was no need to dwell on it.

  Cant always count on others to perform poorly.

  "Thats enough."

  "At least, I can get 100,000 Blue Star Coins." Li Yuan thought: "Besides, a few days ago at the Martial Temple, I met the Master of the Left Temple. The Master said that the commendations and rewards from the Martial Hall and the Martial Temple are also coming soon, and there should be a lot of money."

  There is still a considerable amount of Blue Star Coins and Wu Dian points in Li Yuans bank account.

  But his martial arts training is like a bottomless pit, and he spends money quickly.

  Come up with a solution naturally.

  "Li Yuan, keep it up." Teacher Chen on the podium glanced at Li Yuan before continuing, "I hope other students can learn from Li Yuans example."

  "Ill recite other peoples martial arts achievements, listen carefully."

  "Li Tianyou, 685 points." said Teacher Chen.

  Li Tianyou closely followed Li Yuan, ranking second in the class in martial arts scores.

  He was ranked second but his score difference with Li Yuan was astonishing.

  "685 points?" Lei Tianyous face slightly eased up.

  But it doesnt look very good either.

  With 685 points and an additional 59 cultural points, his total martial arts score was only 744 points. With this score, the hope of getting into a martial arts university is still very slim.

  "Am I not working hard enough?" Lei Tianyou clenched his fists in frustration: "If I had more resources to cultivate and more teachers to guide me, my scores would definitely be much higher."

  Li Tianyou is not stupid.

  He practiced crazily, and his body could hardly bear it. When other classmates occasionally gave him some kind reminders, he was as clear as a mirror.

  But theres not much money at home, what can be done?

  "Gu Yuanyuan, 664 points." Teacher Chen continued reading out the scores.

  Most of my classmates martial arts scores are just average, without much fluctuation.

  Martial arts training requires talent and consumes resources.

  If its a cultural subject exam, there might occasionally be inspiration or outstanding performance.

  Then, there are only two possibilities for martial arts assessment: normal performance and abnormal performance. There is no such thing as super performance.

  The strong are strong, and the weak are weak.

  ……

  After reporting scores, its time to distribute test papers and discuss answers.

  Li Yuan listened very seriously.

  "I dont have much time to spend on cultural classes, so I need to be serious in class." Li Yuan thought it through: "If you want to get into one of the top five universities, every single point counts, and if we can add a few more points to our cultural scores, our chances will be even greater."

  One person can defeat a thousand, its not an empty boast.

  Like Li Yuan this time.

  Martial arts total score can exceed 900 points, cultural conversion scores increased by ten percent, meritorious service is unforgettable.

  ……

  Before I knew it, it was already 10 oclock and there was a 15-minute break between classes.

  Teacher Chen first posted the three report cards on the score column next to the blackboard, then turned around and said: "Li Yuan, Li Tianyou, Wang Zihang, you three come with me to the office for a moment."

  "Others, class dismissed."

  Immediately.

  Wow! Classmates have surged to the scoreboard like a tidal wave, starting to check their rankings.

  Just now, Teacher Chen announced the scores and ranking.

  The transcript will indicate the ranking of grade, district and city.

  "Stable! The first 10,000 in the city."

  "Damn it, off by one minute, and the city ranking is off by over a hundred places? Is this for real?"

  "Uh-oh, Im going to get scolded by my parents again when I get home."

  "This time didnt go well, and our schools total score in the cultural subject is only ranked 13th in the grade. We cant even get into the top ten of the grade."

  Classmates discussed with each other, some were happy and some were worried, but most of them were dissatisfied. Many of them thought if this subject can be five points higher, another subject can be ten points higher, my ranking will definitely...

  Li Yuan and Li Tianyou followed Chen Laoshi to her office.

  Li Yuan was very calm, while Li Tianyou was nervous.

  "You two wait outside first." Teacher Chen instructed: "Li Yuan, come in with me."

  Entering the office, Teacher Chen sat down, tidying up her papers while exchanging greetings with the surrounding teachers, as if she had suddenly forgotten Li Yuans existence.

  This is an old teachers usual trick for educating students.

  First, let the student cool off for a while, occasionally give them a cold stare, continue to ignore them, and make the student more and more anxious.

  Finally, even without the teacher saying a word, the students themselves acknowledged their mistakes one after another.

  However.

  After a major exam, being called alone to the office usually means one of two things: making huge progress or taking a huge step back.

  Li Yuan considered himself to be the former.

  "Cough...cough..." Li Yuan coughed slightly and reached out to pick up the water cup: "Teacher, the water has cooled down. Let me add some hot water for you."

  Before Mr. Chen could respond, Li Yuan had already picked up his water cup and headed towards the water dispenser.

  Li Yuan first poured away the cold water and then added cold and hot water again, using his hands to estimate a suitable temperature.

  Make good tea, and then turn over the teacup cover.

  She then used a paper towel to wipe off the water stains on the surface of the cup, and returned to her desk, gently placing the cup beside Teacher Chens left hand.

  Most people are used to holding the cup with their left hand and twisting the lid with their right hand.

  "Teacher, the water temperature is just right." Li Yuan smiled and said: "Why dont we have a drink first?"

  "Ah!" Teacher Chen watched the whole process, shaking his head and smiling wryly, but it was clear that he was in a good mood.

  Teachers actually like students who are quick-witted and have a sweet tongue.

  "I asked you to come, theres something I want to talk about." Teacher Chen picked up his water cup and said while drinking: "Your grades this time are not bad, sixth in the grade. Especially your martial arts skills score, if it were in previous years, you could have competed for the top single-subject prize in the whole city."

  Li Yuan listened.

  "Its a pity that this year, our school has produced a genius student." Teacher Chen said with some regret: "He scored full marks in martial arts skills."

  "Full marks for skill?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised in his heart.

  Physical fitness score 500 points, full score requirement is level 10.0 physical fitness.

  Martial arts skills 400 points, Li Yuan is still unclear about the requirements, but he guessed that it should be a requirement of four-level skills.

  "Whats going on?" Li Yuan couldnt help but ask.

  "Wu Dongdong." Teacher Chen said, "He is also the first place in the citys martial arts total score in this years January exam. His martial arts score is 900 points and his total martial arts score is 1077 points."

  "Two full marks? Thats really impressive!" Li Yuan exclaimed sincerely.

  This is an incredibly exaggerated achievement.

  Biluns grades were much more exaggerated.

  Martial arts account for 900 points, representing the opponents physical quality is at least level 10.0, and their cultural courses are also good.

  Shi Yuan High School has always been one of the best high schools in Jiang City, and its well-known nationwide. Its normal for a martial arts genius to emerge from such a school.

  Actually.

  Li Yuan was not surprised at all that someone could surpass himself greatly.

  It is known that Wu Dian signed in advance, with the highest being S-level signing, which means someone must have signed before.

  And Li Yuan, even if he awakened his martial spirit, was only qualified to sign an A-level contract.

  This world has never lacked talent, this is a truth Li Yuan understood since he was young.

  "Mind your own business."

  "Youre actually doing quite well." Teacher Chen said, "After the January adjustment exam, in early March, Jiangbei Wudao University has a visit invitation activity, our school has ten places, students who are among the top ten in the total score of martial arts in the January adjustment exam can go."

  "Are you willing to go?" Teacher Chen looked at Li Yuan.

  "An invitation from Jiangbei Wudao University?" Li Yuan was taken aback.

  "Yes, they will invite top high school martial arts students from the entire city or even province, estimated to be nearly a thousand people, for a period of five days." Teacher Chen smiled and said: "If you are favored by the university professors and think you are suitable for cultivation, after the college entrance examination is over, they will immediately invite you to Wudao University, and start special training during the summer vacation."

  "Martial arts training and cultural classes are fundamentally different. For people of your age, three months is a very important period, if utilized properly, its enough to greatly improve your martial arts skills."

  "Hmm." Li Yuan nodded involuntarily.

  Indeed, from the age of sixteen onwards, with the development of the body and the flourishing of qi and blood, martial arts cultivation will make rapid progress.

  "Teacher, my goal for the college entrance examination is Kunlun Wu Dao University." said Li Yuan Dao.

  The Xia Guo Five Great Martial Arts Schools are named after Xiazhi, Nanhai, Kunlun, Donghai and Jixing respectively.

  Kunlun Wudang University has the largest enrollment quota in Jiangbei Province every year and is the first choice for Jiangbei Provinces martial arts elite students.

  "I know."

  "Kunlun Wudang University, if you can get in, its definitely the first choice. Your grades are also hoping to get in, but havent awakened your martial arts spirit, do you have a 100% guarantee?" Teacher Chen asked Li Yuan.

  Li Yuan was not silent.

  "Your goal is to sprint Kunlun Wudao University, but Jiangbei Wudao University is a backup. Go and visit, feel it out, and get to know the teachers at the university. It wont do you any harm." Teacher Chen put down his water cup: "Right?"

  Li Yuan nodded involuntarily, what Teacher Chen said actually made sense.

  "Alright, Ive sent the application form and itinerary to your WeChat. Fill it out and sign electronically, then send it back to me." Teacher Chen said: "By the way, after this afternoons school-wide mobilization meeting, the scholarship for being among the top ten in your grade will be transferred to your account, remember to check."

  "Alright, thank you teacher." Li Yuan nodded.

  For a large-scale exam like this, if the total score of martial arts enters the top ten in the grade, there will be 5,000 blue star coins and several bottles of Qi and Blood Medicine as scholarship rewards.

  At the same time, he can also get an independent martial arts room, but Li Yuan already has one.

  ……

  Among the three, the last one to enter the office was Li Tianyou. He was much more nervous than Li Yuan.

  "Teacher." Lei Tianyou came over to the office desk.

  "Its okay, I called you here not to criticize you, and your exam results were good this time." Teacher Chen smiled: "Remember what I told you last time about applying for a third-class scholarship?"

  Lei Tianyous eyes lit up.

  "This time, your grades combined with your family situation... the application was successful." Teacher Chen smiled and said: "I know youre very hardworking, but you also need to balance work and rest, dont overexert yourself. The 20,000 yuan scholarship will be deposited into your account today."

  "Thank you, teacher." Li Tianyou was quite excited, his eyes were slightly red.

  "Alright, go ahead. Keep this matter quiet, just keep it to yourself." Mr. Chen stood up and patted Li Tianyous shoulder, seeing him off as he left.

  Sit back in the chair.

  Mr. Chens smile disappeared, he opened his smart ring and stared at the document on it in a daze - "Third-class scholarship application review opinion: Not approved."

  "Ah."

  Mr. Chen sighed softly.

  After some thought, he forwarded this document to Xu Bo again.

  This scholarship application was done by her and Xu Bo together for Li Tianyou.

  ……

  After lunch, Li Yuan returned to the 4011 Wudao room and directly entered the virtual network cabin.

  Mind connection.

  "Personal space." Li Yuan stood in his empty personal space, looking at the invitation letter from Jiangbei Martial Arts University:

  Respected Li Yuan classmate...

  "Its all nonsense." Li Yuan frowned and quickly flipped through the first few pages.

  Suddenly, Li Yuan stopped abruptly and stared at the itinerary.

  The fourth days itinerary: Practical assessment: Hunting and killing Star Realm creatures.

  ……

  Thought for a while.

  Li Yuan quickly filled out his own information.

  Electronic signature.

  Click, accept the invitation!

  "I hope I wont be disappointed." Li Yuan muttered to himself as his consciousness left the virtual network.
