Chapter 21 Records
The students were incredulous; they were all born with full soul power?
They knew what it meant to have innate full soul power; there were only a handful on the entire continent, and today, their class had three of them.
They all began to question it, thinking it must be fake.
Wang Da scoffed, "Innate full soul power? You must be exaggerating."
Wang Sha affirmed, "It's definitely an exaggeration. The three of us brothers are only at level two."
Wang Bi sarcastically remarked, "How could three country bumpkins possibly possess innate full soul power? It's all a lie."
Ye Yu, who was standing to the side, said calmly, "Could the three of you please not be together together in the future?"
"Why?" The three brothers frowned, puzzled.
"What would you call yourself if you removed your surnames and put them together?" Ye Yu asked.
The three brothers thought for a moment, removed their surnames, put them together, and muttered to themselves.
"Big…sand…finished."
"Pfft!"
Xiao Wu immediately burst into laughter.
The other students couldn't help but laugh too. Wang Sheng laughed loudly, "You big idiot! Hahahaha..."
The three brothers looked grim and glared at Wang Sheng, who was laughing loudly. However, Wang Sheng seemed not to notice and continued to laugh.
"Damn it! What do you mean?" Wang glared at Ye Yu.
"It's nothing special. I admire your parents; they were very farsighted."
Immediately, the three brothers gritted their teeth; if they weren't in the classroom, they would have attacked.
"Just you wait! You're lucky today!" Wang Da glared fiercely at Ye Yu.
Teacher Wang was surprised, and after checking the certificate, found it to be genuine.
"It really is innate full soul power, but it's a real pity that two of them are useless martial souls."
At the same time, she felt very jealous and thought to herself, "If only I could give this innate full soul power to my son, what a waste."
"Alright, Wang Da, Wang Sha, and Wang Bi, you three sit in the second row. Xiao Wu, you sit in the first row. Tang San and Ye Yu, sit in the last row."
In Teacher Wang's opinion, even if one is born with full soul power, since it is a useless martial soul, it is impossible to cultivate to a very high level; at most, one will stop at the Great Soul Master level.
Therefore, in his mind, he had already categorized Tang San and Ye Yu as underachievers and placed them in the last row.
Xiao Wu was quite loyal and refused, saying, "I won't sit in the first row. I'll sit in the last row with the two of them."
Xiao Wu glanced at the few self-important, city-born students in the first row and knew she had no desire to sit with them.
"Okay." Teacher Wang nodded, and then introduced, "Then, let's talk to the freshmen about some of the most basic things about the school. First of all, scholarships."
"Graduating on time will earn you a scholarship of 100 Bronze Soul Coins, which is equivalent to 1 Gold Soul Coin." (100 Bronze Soul Coins equals 10 Silver Soul Coins, which equals 1 Gold Soul Coin)
"The full scholarship is 110,000 copper soul coins, which is 1,100 gold soul coins. However, don't even think about getting the full scholarship; it's impossible for anyone to get it. The scholarship is calculated from when you enter the school at age six until graduation. If you graduate in three years, you get 1 gold soul coin. If you graduate in two years, you get 1,100 minus 730, which is 370 gold soul coins."
"So, it's calculated based on how long it takes you to graduate; the earlier you graduate, the more you get."
The new students understood, and also realized that this was to encourage students to work hard in their cultivation.
Tang San understood why it was impossible to get the full scholarship: unless one graduated from school in less than a day. This was indeed impossible to others. No six-year-old child who had just awakened their martial soul could reach level twenty in a single day.
However, Tang San thought of Ye Yu.
The teacher continued, "Currently, our Notting Junior Academy's graduation record shows that someone graduated in one thousand days. This person is currently the most outstanding genius in Notting Academy and received one hundred gold soul coins upon graduation."
Immediately, most of the students' eyes lit up. Even for those from the city, one hundred gold soul coins was a huge sum for them and their families.
At this point, Teacher Wang said with pride, "However, this record is about to be broken by my son, Wang Zhe."
Some students started muttering, "The teacher is going to start showing off his son again."
Teacher Wang said smugly, "I bet none of the new students know my son. My son is..."
At this moment, Ye Yu impatiently interrupted, "We really don't know, and we're not interested in knowing. Teacher, can you begin your lesson now?"
Teacher Wang, who was basking in his pride, was suddenly interrupted. His face darkened, and he looked at Ye Yu with a sarcastic tone: "What, are you afraid of being discouraged by hearing that my son is too outstanding? I'll say it anyway. It's a blow to a good-for-nothing, but it's also a motivation for others."
Teacher Wang ignored Ye Yu, thinking that he was just jealous of his son's genius. He believed that useless martial spirits like Blue Silver Grass and Black Tail Flower would have a hard time graduating from school.
Teacher Wang continued, "My son is the top student in Class One, and also the most powerful student in the entire Notting Junior Academy—a true king! When his Martial Soul awakened, his Soul Power was at level four! He's considered a genius! Now he's eight years old, a level nineteen Battle Soul Master, and I believe he'll reach level twenty in a month, obtain his second Soul Ring, become a Great Soul Master, and then graduate! He'll set a new record, a record that can never be surpassed! He'll graduate in nine hundred days! And receive two hundred gold soul coins!"
After hearing this, Ye Yu scoffed inwardly, "Excellent my ass! Just wait, tomorrow I'll give you and your son an unbearable blow."
Ye Yu has decided that once he obtains his spirit ring and returns to school tomorrow, he will apply for graduation immediately!
Ye Yu will graduate in less than a day and receive 1,100 gold soul coins!
However, there is also some concern: can Notting Junior Academy afford so many gold soul coins?
Observing Ye Yu's expression, Tang San glanced sympathetically at the smug Teacher Wang and thought to himself, "Your son has no chance of setting a record."
After the two classes ended, Ye Yu and the others went to the cafeteria.
The cafeteria has two floors. The first floor is very large and can accommodate more than 300 people. It offers a wide variety of delicious and nutritious food. The second-floor cafeteria, however, is much smaller, and the food is ordinary and tastes average.
The first floor is clearly occupied by children from the city, while the second floor is occupied by children from the village. The food on the first floor is expensive, while the food on the second floor is cheap.
Xiao Wu said generously, "It's my treat today, we'll eat on the first floor."
Wang Sheng and the other two cheered, "Yay! Sister Xiao Wu is so generous! Sister Xiao Wu is awesome!"
"Don't be shy, people our age should eat well."
Upon arriving on the first floor, a mocking voice immediately rang out:
"Aren't these Wang Sheng and his bunch of poor country bumpkins? They actually came to eat on this floor?"
Six students, the same age as Ye Yu, sat together eating, looking up with extreme disdain and mockery.
"What's it to you?" Wang Sheng rolled his eyes and then ignored the group.
The six people ate, picking all the vegetables out of their bowls and throwing them directly on the ground instead of leaving them on the table.
"These dishes are really bad," a boy with an effeminate appearance muttered.
"Oh dear, Boss Cai, if those fellow students see this, they'll be heartbroken. These dishes are delicious to them."
At this moment, Wang Sheng saw vegetable leaves and soup on the ground and was extremely angry: "The cafeteria is cleaned by the people of Dormitory 7. What do you mean by doing this?"
"What? Are you angry? Of course I'm going to throw it on the floor. What if you guys pick it up and eat it while you're cleaning up?
As soon as the effeminate boy finished speaking, the other five students burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... Boss Cai is right, that country bumpkin might actually do that."
Just then, Ye Yu's expression darkened, and his voice became low:
"You lot, get down on the ground and eat the food, lick the soup clean!"
