After settling his business, Fang Ping headed for the Building of Practical Combat Training.

Tang Feng was speechless when he saw Fang Ping.

The kid was so infuriating!

Just how much earlier had he returned?

By the time Tang Feng got back, Fang Ping had already developed a loan system in the university. Was MCMAU being commercialized?

Even though Magic City was nicknamed the City of Commerce, Tang Feng never felt the need for MCMAU to be commercialized. It was just a school after all.

Who would have thought that the deans would end up supporting Fang Pings plan?

Tang Feng could not protest even if he wanted to.

Giving Fang Ping a long, hard glare, Tang Feng lowered his voice and said, Everyone already knows the results of the assessment. Most of you didnt even pass the basic score!

Thats inexcusable. As members of MCMAUs elite reserves team, its embarrassing that you cant even hit the passing mark.

But of course, a pass is a pass, and effort is effort. After everyone worked together to besiege the evil sects martial artists, everything turned out well in the end. The mission was accomplished after all.

As for the students who completed the mission, the school will reward them generously. Regarding the relationship between the schools rewards and the assessments scores, the rewards should be converted to approximately 25% of the assessments scores

But, Teacher! Fang Ping interrupted. That is way too little!

The 800 points he had could only be converted to 200 credits. All he could afford with that amount was one Resurrection Pill.

Moreover, he was the one with the highest assessment marks!

Others like Fu Changding had even lower marks. As for those like Yang Xiaoman, they did not even fulfill the basic score. If they were to convert their points now, would they only get around 20 credits?

Even one Rank-2 Vitality Pill cost 20 credits. After days of running around and killing an entire group of martial artists, they could not even afford to replenish their Vitality?

Let me finish! Tang Feng barked. For the students who scored lower than the basic score, you will not receive any additional rewards!

If you did not achieve the basic score, own up to it and know that none of you will get a single point!

You have to remember that the rewards you receive from the assessments are all extra expenses. We are not obliged to reward you at all.

In fact, you have no idea of the pains the school has to go through to provide you with such opportunities.

Includingyour recent siege of the evil sect martial artists. One of MCMAUs powerhouses had rushed to Nanjiang to provide support.

Naturally, its our duty to defeat the evil sect. Its what we must do!

So, I hope everyone wont be too much of a utilitarian regarding this matter

Fang Ping felt helpless. Teacher, thats beside the point. We all know we must strive to defeat the evil sects martial artists.

But not to the point where we cant even heal our bodies.

If this goes on, how can we put our lives on the line the next time we encounter them?

If we have exhausted our Vitality, we cant replenish it. If we got hurt, wed have no pills to heal ourselves with.

Were all just students, we never had any source of income to begin with. All we can rely on are these missions. Now you want to deduct our rewards from the missions too? How are we supposed to cultivate?

Teacher, please consider the fact that not all of us come from privileged families.

Even those who hailed from privileged families have put in the effort to fight as well. A task that does not reward us will only bring us down.

Zhao Xuemeis family had to sell their company. Fu Changdings grandfather scolded his motherWere all having a difficult time. The school should try to be a bit more understanding.

Tang Feng was slightly taken aback by Fang Pings words. They were certainly not wrong!

Indeed, students were not employed; they were not members of the government, the Military Department, or even the schools instructorsIndeed, they lacked a source of income.

However, this was the schools decision!

Fang Ping kicked Zhao Lei suddenly. Zhao Lei glowered at him, then said drily, Instructor, this is indeed too little. We did not seize a lot of loot either, so we barely got anything.

Tang Feng groaned while Fang Ping continued to kick other people. This bunch of idiots. If they dont fight now, we can all prepare to starve!

Teacher, we did not do a good job at completing the mission this time. But without the resources, we would not be able to continue cultivating.

Teacher, after a few years in MCMAU, my family can barely make ends meet. If this continues, we wont even be able to afford Healing Pills before we enter the catacombs

Teacher

Tang Feng was starting to get a headache. Silence!

All of you, wait for a moment. Ill be right back!

After saying that, Tang Feng hurried away, apparently to consult the schools leader.

Once he left, Fang Ping turned to his classmates angrily. Are all your families wealthy? Does this small amount of reward not matter to you? Even so, you should be more considerate of the poor students. Unlike you, Im poor. I do not have a grandfather whos a Grandmaster or a grandmother whos a Rank-8

Everyone looked toward him one by one. Had he no sense of shame?

Zhang Ziwei was too lazy to argue with him, but changed the subject. Fang Ping, regarding the loaning issue you mentioned, including the matter about discounted pills, I heard that it was organized by your company and the Ping Yuan Club.

What of it? Do you have something to say? Fang Ping asked loftily.

No, I dont. Zhang Ziwei replied coolly. Im just letting you know youre overstepping your authority.

Overstepping my authority? Fang Ping gave her a weird look. Overstepping whose authority? Yours?

Theres no point arguing with me about this. Before this, the allocation of resources was carried out by the Martial Arts Society. After the platforms changed, it suddenly became you and Ping Yuan Clubs responsibility? What do you think?

Except for Fang Ping, everyone else present was a member of the Martial Arts Society. Upon hearing Zhang Ziweis words, they all fell silent.

Fang Ping, on the other hand, disagreed. He laughed. So if the Martial Arts Society wont do it themselves, then they wont allow anyone else to take up the duty?

Im fighting for everyones benefit. Is there a problem with that?

Previously, the Martial Arts Society only gave those benefits to their members, which only amounted to two or three hundred students.

Now, Im trying to give the same benefits to all the students. Is there something wrong with that? You should ask the other students, see if they agree!

Zhang Ziwei regarded him calmly. As I said, theres no need to argue with me. Im just conveying the Martial Arts Societys opinions. Perhaps the Distance Platform should be jointly operated by the Martial Arts Society and Ping Yuan Club. That should be the best compromise.

What a joke!

If no interests were involved, it would not have mattered to him if he conceded.

However, interests were involved. With interest, came wealth; with wealth, came strength; and with strength, came everything

Fang Ping knew he could not give this up.

Did Xie Lei ask you to say this? If he did, you can tell him theres no way Im doing that!

I, Fang Ping, have built a solid foundation, and now you Martial Arts Society members want to pick the fruits of labor?

Come and face me head-on!

I might not have reached Peak Rank-3, but Im not afraid of him. Even if Zhang Yu were to show up now, Id tell him the same thing!

Since I havent reached Rank-4, would Zhang Yu dare to break the rules and cause trouble for me?

Its not like I havent killed anyone at Peak Rank-3 either!

Unless I challenge Zhang Yu, the Martial Arts Society will have to accept my duty. If theres anyone unsatisfied with that, then just come find me!

Outrageous! Zhang Ziwei snorted softly. Fang Ping might have killed a Peak Rank-3, but that did not mean all Peak Rank-3 martial artists were the same.

The Grand Missionary had yet to master the Rank-3 ultimate move, and his lethal move missed the mark.

But Xie Lei was different. Currently, Xie Lei had already entered Peak Rank-3. He might not have mastered his ultimate move yet, but his Rank-3 lethal move was almost invincible. If they were pitted in a duel, the Grand Missionary would be no match for him at all.

Moreover, the Martial Arts Society had more than one member at Peak Rank-3. They had Qin Fengqing and another Peak Rank-3 vice-president as well, both of whom were still in school.

The Martial Arts Society had 5 members who were Peak Rank-3.

Among those who were Rank-3, if she counted the ones who were at the peak and the upper stage, they would have almost 10 people. Did Fang Ping think he was undefeatable?

Fang Ping sneered. Outrageous? Hilarious! Everything that I, Fang Ping, have now, was earned through my wit and strength! What about you, Zhang Ziwei? Just because Xie Lei is your boyfriend, you think you can look down on me? It seems like youre just unhappy that you lost before. Once youre a Rank-3, Ill wait for you to challenge me anytime! As for the issue regarding the platform, the Martial Arts Society could try to convince the school if youre capable of doing so. Just try and snatch it from my grasp. If you cant, Ill be waiting for him to come find me anytime.

Zhang Ziwei scoffed but did not say anything else.

Fang Ping was too lazy to bother with her too. He looked at the other students. Dont interfere with the business between the Martial Arts Society and me. If you do, dont blame me for turning against you!

Soon, he would be earning money. In a year, he could have a profit that amounted to hundreds of millions.

Now, some people were popping out to steal the fruits of his labor. There was no way he would allow that.

MCMAUs platform was only in its early stages, but Fang Ping was already thinking of developing a network-wide platform on an inter-school and national scale.

Now that someone was trying to rob him of his territory, it was like robbing him of his life.

If Xie Lei came to find him, Fang Ping decided that he would not just try to reject him, he would drag him to hell!

Everyone remained silent.

Even though they were all members of the Martial arts Society, the problem between Fang Ping and the Martial Arts Society had nothing to do with them.

Fang Ping was only a freshman, yet he had already reached the middle stage of Rank-3 and had killed a Peak Rank-3 martial artist.

Xie Lei, on the other hand, was an extremely powerful Peak Rank-3 martial artist.

The Martial Arts Society also had a Rank-4 presidentBut due to the restrictions set by the school rules, unless Fang Ping challenged Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu, who was a Rank-4, would not be able to challenge Fang Ping.

However, once Fang Ping reached Rank-4, this rule would not be in the way anymore.

But if he were to reach Rank-4, Zhang Yu might not even be his opponent. It was better that they did not think about how the battle would end, as there was no point in meddling in this matter.

While they were contemplating silently, Tang Feng had returned.

Once he returned, he announced, The school has decided to reward everyone 50% of the assessment score, even for those who scored lower than the basic score. However, for those of you who scored lower than the basic score, you have to complete at least three Rank-2 missions within this month. Thats a must! Without experiencing life or death situations, you will never grow! If you only rely on resources to cultivate yourselves, you will only become a Vitality martial artist. Thats not what the school wants to see.

Fang Ping did not mind, this matter had nothing to do with him. However, if he could convert 50%, then he would be earning quite a bit. He would have 400 credits.

After thinking, Fang Ping asked, Teacher, how long will the special training class last? Has the date to enter the Catacombs been set yet?

The class will end around the end of May. After that, everyone is free to do what they want, whether its to carry out missions, study or prepare. Its all up to you. That includes the combination of the small groups, I would need all of you to get used to that together. As for the time to enter the Catacombs, it has not been set yet. We will likely enter by June.

Fang Ping nodded, then asked again, Can I receive this months 300 credits in advance?

Tang Feng furrowed his brows.

Fang Ping said flatly, As Ive said before, Im very close to reaching the upper stage of Rank-3. Once I do, itll all be different. As for the students in the class, Ill give them all a chance. Those who can challenge me and defeat me, say no more, the credits will be yours. Once you enter the Catacombs, your strength is your greatest asset. Im sure everyone can agree with me. Of course, if they want to compare exams and survivability, Id be willing to compete with them too, but I dont think anyone could defeat me.

Tang Feng glanced at the rest. Is no one willing to challenge him?

Everyone was silent. Fang Ping had killed a Peak Rank-3 before; who would dare to challenge him?

Since none of you are willing to challenge him, Fang Ping will be able to receive his credits in advance!

Tang Feng then raised his voice slightly, The strong will become stronger, remember that! Today, Im giving all of you a chance. You might not be able to defeat him, but even if it meant taking turns to fight him, Id still give you the chance! However, if everyone gave up now, then dont blame the school for not giving you hope. Thats all, the class will resume tomorrow. Dismissed!

Once Tang Feng finished speaking, he quickly left.

Fang Ping, on the other hand, started walking outside. Doing a quick calculation, he figured he could obtain 700 credits. However, after taking a look at Fu Changding and the rest, Fang Ping sighed. It would be shameful of him to go back on his promise; he would still have to give them 100 credits.

With that, he could only take 600 credits.

Fu Changding and the rest did think too much about that. Instead, Chen Yunxi whispered, Youjust now you and Zhang Ziwei

Im too lazy to bother with her! Fang Ping exclaimed while walking. And Xie Lei seems to regard himself as the president now.

Is it that fun to try to snatch my possessions?

Only I have been snatching other peoples things, not the other way around. Were about to enter the Catacombs soon, so I dont think he would challenge me now.

Once I exit the Catacombs and reach the upper stage, or even the peak, if he dares to challenge me, Ill hack him to death!

Fang Ping was unafraid. Until now, the chances of Xie Lei coming to challenge him and causing him trouble had been very low.

Those who were in the special training class were busy preparing for entering the Catacombs.

Picking a fight now would lead to no good.

If Fang Ping was severely injured in the fight and something happened to him in the Catacombs, Xie Lei would be on the receiving end of ill rumors: perhaps out of jealousy and spite he had delayed Fang Pings progress and left him to die.

The title of a Grandmaster wasnt only determined by a persons strength. Personality and character also played a big part.

If Xie Lei had intentionally sabotaged a Rank-3 prodigy out of jealousy, it would not matter that he was a Rank-7, he might still not be able to obtain the Grandmasters title.

Although it was not as if Grandmasters were not allowed to do bad things, but even if they did, either no one found out or whatever they did not affect them too badly.

As things were, Fang Ping was now a Rank-3 treasure. He was no longer an anonymous student; he had the attention of all the Grandmasters in school.

Because of those reasons, Fang Ping allowed himself to be reckless. He did not worry too much.

Yang Xiaoman pursed her lips. Well, arent you confident? Xie Lei is not weak, not to mention theres still Qin Fengqing

Qin Fengqing?

Fang Ping laughed. Unless Qin Fengqing becomes the president, with his personality as it is, Id say its a bit of a loss for the Martial Arts Society. Do you think he would make the first move?

Fang Ping was not worried about Qin Fengqing.

Fengqing was now going head to head with Zhang Yu. If he did not defeat Zhang Yu, it would mean that he was not meant to become the president before his graduation from his senior year.

There was no way Fengqing would be willing to be someones sidekick throughout his four years in school.

Currently, his goal was to level up to Rank-4 and defeat Zhang Yu. He would not interfere with Fang Ping.

What about Zhang Yu?

Ill decide after Im sure that I can defeat him.

Fang Ping did not pay too much mind to Zhang Yu. Even if he was not sure that he could defeat Zhang Yu, all he had to do was steer clear of him. Zhang Yu, who was a Rank-4, would not be able to start a fight with him.

He was certain he could do it. He just had one word to saydamn!

Whos afraid of who?

At that moment, Fu Changding spoke up, Youre the one who established Distance Ltd?

Duh, couldnt you tell?

Fang Ping was not hiding it anymore. At this point, even an idiot would know Distance Ltd was connected to Fang Ping.

Fu Changding said, Well, Ill say. Arent you meticulous? I used to think that they were giving you special privileges because you had some kind of relationship with them. Who knew that the relationship was you being the founder?

So, were working for him! Zhao Lei remarked coldly.

Fang Ping smiled. You lot havent done anything. All youve done is reap the benefits. Stop spouting nonsense! You can quit now if you want, with a few extra slots I could hire new people.

Zhao Lei snorted. Nope!

They were about to bring up the matter of borrowing credits for free. Why would they leave the club? If Fang Ping could do his calculations, the others could certainly do them as well.

Then stop talking nonsense.

After saying that, he looked at them. Why are you following me? Im going to retrieve my credits. What are you all up to?

Were going to retrieve our credits too. Dont ask us something so strange!

With that measly amount, is there a need for you to go all the way to retrieve it? You can retrieve it from the Distance platform too

Were willing to do it!
