Chapter 2892: Have You All Been Tricked?

“I’ve only heard Dean Yun mention that you can earn mission credits by accepting tasks at the mission center.”
“Yeah, but those credits are on a slightly more advanced level, and they’re pretty difficult to come by,” Qi Xuanxuan seemed eager to unload all the grievances she had amassed over the past two days onto the unflappable Classmate Qiao.
“I’ve heard that completing a Level 1 mission only rewards you with 10 to 50 points each time!” Qi Xuanxuan huffed indignantly. “Level 1 missions are like helping out in the academy’s medicinal garden—tasks like weeding and watering. They tend to be monopolized by well-connected individuals year-round!”
“I see.”
“Aren’t you frustrated at all?” Qi Xuanxuan’s eyes widened. “I heard they need to accumulate 5,000 credits just to enter Huangbao Restaurant!”
“At this rate, it’ll be a cold day in hell when that happens.”
“The Level 2 missions mostly involve hunting a level-15 mystical beast known as the Ice Silk Rabbit in North Wangda Forest. The valuable fur of this creature is used to make fur collars, gloves, and such, and it’s a hit among many noble ladies and young misses.”
“For missions above Level 3, we’re actually required to battle spiritual beasts!” Qi Xuanxuan lamented.
“Oh, I’m not discussing credits at the moment. I’m talking about contribution points!” Qi Xuanxuan playfully poked Classmate Qiao’s head. “All new students are awarded 10,000 contribution points upon enrollment.”
“And the only way to earn contribution points is through combat!” Qi Xuanxuan continued, her words spilling out. Classmate Qiao glanced at her impassively.
“Moreover, I’ve heard that students with less than 300 contribution points may be sent to the Beiwang Great Forest by the academy for a month of practical training. They can return only after defeating 30 spiritual beasts,” Qi
Xuanxuan’s companion added, shivering at the thought of being stranded in a forsaken place like North Wangda Forest for a month with no one else around.
Qiao Mu couldn’t help but wonder if this person was merely indulging in futile thoughts.
She gave her a quick sidelong glance and briskly brushed away the eager face hovering in front of her. “You’re overthinking it.”
“It’s because contribution points can only be earned through combat that some of those senior students are especially obnoxious, constantly challenging us freshmen!”
“And some of them are even worse—they tried to trick us out of our contribution points through gambling.”
“They cheated you??” Qiao Mu immediately turned to Qi Xuanxuan and the others.
“No.” Little Fatty shook her head hastily. “Xuanxuan almost lost 100 contribution points to them. But it seems they had no choice but to tolerate us and didn’t completely break ties with us.”
“That scoundrel named Zhong He lied to me, claiming that if I invested 100 contribution points, I’d double them by tomorrow! He made it sound so extravagant; it made my head spin,” Xuanxuan recounted, clearly upset.
“Those senior students can be quite cunning. We need to be careful because they might set traps for us. In any case, we should exercise caution around them.”
As they spoke, the group had already arrived outside the white fence surrounding the Cultivation Hall. Glancing over, they noticed a crowd of people gathered there, all appearing disgruntled.
“What’s happening, what’s happening?” Qi Xuanxuan hurriedly approached and pulled a familiar young woman aside to inquire, “Clueless Flower, what’s going on? Why isn’t anyone entering?”
