Chapter 233: Provoking the Entire Sophomore Class for a Harvest, the Arena Battle Begins
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Dragon Academy, sophomore campus.
The layout here is pretty much the same as the freshman campus.
“Senior Cai, please take me to the dormitory area, I’d like to challenge the upperclassmen.”
Harvesting leeks, just cut all of them from the sophomore class from start to finish, and won’t that give me Contribution Value?
On the side, Cai Cheng was sweating profusely. He knew this junior was not to be underestimated, but he hadn’t expected him to be so outrageous.
Isn’t he afraid of being beaten up by a group of sophomores all banding together?
However, in order to get on someone’s good side, Cai Cheng certainly didn’t want to see Zi Liyuan becoming an enemy of the whole academy. That would only make his future path more difficult.
Of course, he was also doing this for his own benefit.
If Zi Liyuan was targeted by all the students at Dragon Academy, as someone who wanted to cling to his coattails, he would surely be in big trouble.
“Junior, the ordinary students don’t have much Contribution Value on them. The challenge system arranged by the academy discourages them from keeping too much Contribution Value on hand.
They usually just keep enough for a month’s expenses, like dungeon runs, accessing the Secret Realm, exchanging resources, and food and such necessities.”
It’s the powerhouses within the top thousand of the arena rankings who stockpile a massive amount of Contribution Value.”
Cai Cheng continued to explain, trying to dissuade Lord Zi from his dangerous plan of offending the entire sophomore class.
“Well, if that’s the case, then you just take me to those arena top thousand powerhouses and start from the last one, fight them one by one.”
Zi Liyuan had obviously understood the hidden message from Senior Cai.
Isn’t it just that ordinary students are not worth much, so it’s better to go directly after the wealthy landlords?
“Umm… Junior, rather than wasting time looking for fighters one by one, which is too inefficient, it would be better to go directly to the arena competition, to participate in the sophomore ranking matches.”
(⊙o⊙)…
Facing his junior’s risky idea, Cai Cheng felt anxious and continued to persuade him.
“Ranking matches can be entered across grades?”
There are also ranking matches in the freshman year, but they only start one month after the term begins.
This ranking match will determine the top one thousand students in the grade. The higher the rank, the more resources are awarded by the academy.
The top ten receive special resource rewards, such as those that can only be used in the Sea of Realms.
The rankings are settled monthly, and after each settlement, the ranking list remains unchanged unless someone knocks you down, causing the list to change.”
“Of course, there was a senior from the previous terms who joined Dragon Academy and immediately took the top spot, dominating the entire school and occupying the top position of the rankings from freshman to senior year.”
Legend has it that just one person dominated an era, leaving other geniuses and monsters only to follow from behind, with no chance of overtaking.
“Junior, in the arena ranking battles, you can also participate in betting matches, and this is where you can earn a lot of Contribution Value.”
Cai Cheng, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, quickly led Zi Liyuan towards the sophomore challenge area of the arena.
It’s called an arena, but it’s quite similar to the ancient Roman Colosseum, only much larger and equipped with some modern technology that allows viewers to see every corner inside the arena clearly.
“Senior, if you want to bet on yourself, what do you need to do?”
Fighting in the arena, of course, allowed betting, and Zi Liyuan wouldn’t miss the opportunity to earn Contribution Value.
“Once you sign up for the arena battle, you can bet using an attuning jade card. However, once participants enter match mode, they can only bet on themselves to win, and the Contribution Value of the bet cannot exceed 10,000 points.”
Participants are not allowed to bet on their opponents, naturally to prevent fixed matches.
The upper limit for Contribution Value is there because the academy doesn’t want anyone winning big all at once.”
“Anything else I need to be aware of?”
“Junior, you’d better wear a mask, especially for the first ten random matchmaking fights, otherwise it will easily attract sniping from the top one thousand powerhouses.”
The first ten matchmaking fights are based on the participants’ personal information provided for matching. Winning all ten matches straight away could potentially place one directly in the top one thousand rankings.
This way, for subsequent rankings, you can save a lot of unnecessary time on lower-level matches.
“Sniping? Sniping is great!”
If people are coming to snipe, they must be the geniuses among the top thousand ranks, and if he can knock them out in the matchmaking matches, his ranking will surely shoot up.
Plus, getting sniped by these genius students would also allow him to earn more Contribution Value because the fewer people bet on him, the bigger his profit would be, right?
You know, the academy doesn’t take a cut from the betting Contribution Value in such ranking matches, and all the stakes go to the winner of the bets, isn’t that exciting?
“Senior Cai, like this, quietly leak my information out there, just say that this year’s freshman champion wants to weigh the caliber of the sophomore seniors—be as bold and provocative as possible, and ideally attract all the sophomore students.”
In a betting fight, each person can only bet a limit of 10,000 Contribution Value, so of course the more people participate, the richer the stakes will be.
And the fewer people bet against him, the more he stands to gain after winning.
So why not attract all the sophomores, or even juniors and seniors, too?
As for the possibility of losing, Zi Liyuan had never even considered it.
If he was confident enough to see the sophomore seniors as leeks ready for harvesting, would he ever think that he might lose?
Impossible!
With Lao Tie, the Tortoise, the Queen, and the Demon Spider—these four terrifying summoned creatures on his side—there wouldn’t be many who could beat him, and they’d all have to be of Fourth Order Level 100 stature.
