Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

Since there was an opening ceremony before the mid-term test, everyone got up early. Fortunately, the venue was large enough, and with more than 2,000 people gathered together, it didn't feel crowded. At the opening ceremony, Xiao met the dean of the college for the first time, an old man who looked very healthy.

There were no fancy programs at the opening ceremony, only the dean's mobilization speech. The speech was so long that Xiao almost fell asleep, seeming out of place compared to the excited crowd around him.

Sorry, my old habit has come back.

After the speech, Xiao instantly became energetic.

Next is the introduction of rules and rewards.

The competition system is an elimination system. All participants are divided into four groups. They will first compete in a free-for-all audition. The sixteen participants who pass the audition will then compete against each other in pairs. Finally, the first place winners of each group will compete against each other. For the students who fail the audition, the judges will score them based on their persistence time and performance.

The above are the rules for practicing this subject.

Other subjects are not so troublesome. It is just three to five rounds of tests with different themes, and the ranking is based on the judges' scores.

The top sixteen in cultivation and the top three in other subjects will be rewarded with spirit stones and even rare treasures.

The college has three grades. Since many students in the third grade are not in the college at present, there will be no midterm test. There will be a showdown between the first and second graders in each subject, and the winner will receive additional rewards.

The dean was introducing the awards, and the discussion below began.

"Why has the reward for cultivation become smaller, while the rewards for other subjects have not changed? Could it be that it has been moved to the extra reward?"

"No, we already got enough resources in the early years."

"Maybe there's a tough guy among the freshmen. I've heard of one. He had a fight with Fu Sen right after he transferred in. Although he didn't win, he still performed very well. I'm very optimistic about him."

"You can't even beat Fu Sen, yet you still want to fight Chu Nian? What are you dreaming of?"

"I do have a piece of gossip. Some people from the Sea Sentinel came to Licheng a few days ago. It is said that they will come to watch the battle and even give guidance. Those resources may be used to reward the students who are guided."

"Shouldn't it be used as a reward for their advice?"

"The Sea Sentinel has special resource subsidies, so they don't think highly of us."

"Makes sense."

"But those people at the Sea Sentinel were all immortals in their past lives. They all have high standards. If no one catches their eye, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

"Indeed, the gods who returned that year wiped out the top leaders of Mingxin Pavilion, and Mingxin Pavilion was destroyed. The good seedlings were poached by other major sects, and the remaining disciples formed the current Sea Sentinel. Although no sect accepted them at the beginning, it was only because there were too many stronger than them in the fairyland, and they could still cause a dimensionality reduction attack on us in the mortal world."

"I think the guy from the first year should be able to do it."

"Isn't that the whole thing going around again?"

"Ah this..."

"..."

After the test began, the dean returned to the room after his speech, and Lord Kang was also inside.

"Can the boy you mentioned really put pressure on those top students in Class 1?" asked the dean.

"He has done a lot of good things. You are his dean, and you don't know it?" City Lord Kang asked back.

"I've been busy with some things recently. I just know that President Qiao sent someone to me." The dean asked

"That's right. You didn't come to the last meeting either. Well, just watch carefully."

"Will those people from the Sea Sentinel really come?" asked the dean.

"They didn't agree or refuse. Only they know whether they will come or not. We just need to take care of our own business."

At this time, the dean's communication stone lit up.

"Well, that guy from Jiang Qiuhui? What do you want from me at this time?"

……

The training test would not start until three days later, so Xiao watched his roommate take the test in the morning and went to the arena in the afternoon. He was told that the competition would not start until the weekend, so he had to continue playing. After the upgrade, the opponents were indeed much stronger, but he started with a Jingyao Nuwu and defeated the opponent before he could use his signature skills. It was a relatively easy win.

His points and money were increasing rapidly, but he was helpless because he couldn't get any spirit stones. Although there were spirit stones in the arena's treasury, he couldn't buy a few with all his money. It was the first time in a long time that he felt poor.

In the evening, the suit he had worn before was delivered, along with a communication from President Joe.

President Qiao said that the president of Jiangqiu Association found him.

Well, after beating the younger and older ones, the older one stopped coming and turned around to tell the parents. What a show of operation. President Qiao's next words shocked Xiao even more.

"Let me cooperate with Jiangqiuhui's actions?" Xiao was stunned. "President, are you awake? I should be considered an enemy of them now!"

"This matter is not as serious as you think. You just have a conflict with one of the gangs, but they can't beat you, and their president doesn't care." said the person on the other end of the communication stone.

"Their president is only a four-star Saint. As far as I know, you are extremely fast and can burst out with Saint-level combat power. If you still have concerns, I can give you another protective magic weapon."

Well, it seems there is no room for negotiation. I am sold out.

"What do you need my cooperation for?" Xiao asked.

"The previous escort mission brought together a lot of spirit beasts, and there are still some scattered ones that were not wiped out in the battle. Jiang Qiu will plan to do something big, and he needs someone with good skills to gather these scattered spirit beasts. In return, if there is a spirit beast you like, they will help capture it. The time is set after the midterm test." Qiao Huanxi replied.

"Is this the only reward?"

There was silence on the other end of the communication stone for a while before they said, "Their president will allocate some spoils to you based on your performance."

What an ambiguous promise.

After a long struggle, he finally gave a firm answer, 10%. It still felt too little, but the tone sounded like if he asked for more, he would have to change people, so he could only accept it reluctantly. As for the rest of Jiang Qiuhui, if they wanted to mess with him, he wouldn't mind making some extra money.

Now that he can be temporarily promoted to the Saint level, he can face the president head-on without any fear.

Shan Xubei: I clearly remember that at first I wanted to get someone to come here for free, but how did it end up being inviting someone?
