Chapter 348: Combat Trial
“Hey, Chu Nan… Hey, wake up…”
Chu Nan was immersed in the research of the F-rank martial technique on the virtual screen when he suddenly felt someone stab his waist. He turned around in confusion and looked at Mondeo.
“What’s wrong?”
“What else?” Mondeo rolled his eyes and pointed around. “Class has ended. Don’t you know?”
Chu Nan looked around and indeed, he discovered that the surrounding students had already stood up and dispersed. As for the teacher on the stage, he had long disappeared.
“Chu Nan, you’re not listening to class at all, right?” Saar, who had leaned over, looked at Chu Nan in amusement, “I saw that you’ve been staring at the virtual screen. What are you doing?”
“Oh, I’m studying the martial techniques I exchanged,” Chu Nan casually replied. He stood up and looked in the direction of Brax, only to discover that he had already disappeared. He had probably slipped away as soon as class ended.
Chu Nan chuckled and did not mind.
Since this guy had entered Star Cloud Academy, there would be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future.
If he did not find trouble with him, it was not bad to let him hide from him in the future.
…
“Those that you exchanged? Those F-rank martial techniques?” Mondeo looked at Chu Nan in disbelief, “Hey, don’t tell me you really plan to cultivate these martial techniques and study them to exchange for points?”
“What? Can’t I?” Chu Nan asked.
“Damn, I thought you were joking…” Mondeo widened his eyes. Saar and Tanaka Iyoko were also surprised and looked at Chu Nan as if they were looking at a fool.
“How can I be joking? Do you think I spent a thousand points for nothing?”
“But…”
“Alright, no buts. I’m hungry. Shall we eat together?” Chu Nan shook his head and did not want to dwell on this problem.
While he was in class just now, Chu Nan had already studied three martial techniques and submitted points to the database.
If he passed all of them, according to the rules, not only could he obtain the full points returned when he exchanged for these three martial techniques, he could also obtain some additional points as a reward.
As for the points rewarded, it depended on the level of the three martial techniques he submitted.
Chu Nan was confident that all three martial techniques could pass, but he could not say what level they would be evaluated.
Of course, even if he was rated at the lowest level, he should be able to obtain an additional 20 points in all three categories.
If he could successfully exchange all three martial techniques that he had spent 1,000 points on according to this process, then according to his own calculations, he would at least obtain an additional reward of 483 points.

According to the rules of the student points level, as long as one’s points exceeded 2,000, they could be promoted to an E-rank student.
With the speed at which Chu Nan studied these martial techniques, he could resolve the martial techniques exchanged with 1,000 points in a week.
Later on, he would use all his points to exchange for more F-rank martial techniques. If he studied it the same way, it meant that he might only need half a month to advance to an E-rank student.
This speed could definitely be considered the top among all the new students, but when he recalled the terrifying 100,000 points needed to exchange for the Arhat Overlord Golden Body, Chu Nan still felt that it was too far away.

“Speaking of which, do you want to apply to participate in the actual combat trial?” On the way, Mondeo suddenly asked the other three with an excited expression.
The three of them were stunned. Saar asked in surprise, “Why did you suddenly think of participating in the actual combat trial?”
“For points.” Mondeo shrugged, “I’ve calculated that if we rely on classes alone, we might not be able to advance to D-rank next year. As for advancing to a higher level, it will take a few years. If we want to be faster, it’s obvious that participating in the actual combat trial is the fastest.”
“But Mondeo-kun…” Tanaka Iyoko frowned, “You need to sign an additional safety agreement with the academy in the combat trial because if anything happens in the combat trial, it’s possible to be injured or even die. If anything really happens, then…”
“Tsk, coward. We’re martial artists. What danger do martial artists fear?” Mondeo curled his lips and turned to Saar. “What do you think?”
Saar pondered for a moment and nodded. “I definitely have to go to the actual combat trial, but it’s a little too early to go now. I plan to stay in the academy for a while and familiarize myself before considering it.”
Saar’s thoughts were undoubtedly the most reliable. Mondeo did not have any doubts and could only turn to look at Chu Nan.
“What about you, Chu Nan? You just spent all your points. Aren’t you in a hurry to earn them?”
Chu Nan pointed at the personal terminal on his wrist, “I’ll rely on this to earn some points first. There’s no hurry in the combat trial.”
“Tsk, I already said that your idea is unreliable.” Mondeo glanced at Tanaka Iyoko in disdain, but he did not ask.
This Japanese roommate had always been careful and weak among the four of them. He probably would not participate in something dangerous like an actual combat trial.
“Sigh, since you’re not going, I can only find someone else.” Mondeo sighed, “If I obtain a lot of points in the actual combat trial, don’t be jealous.”
Saar immediately laughed, “Come on? Not to mention whether you can go or not, even if you go, do you really think you can perform well in the actual combat trial?”
“Tsk, if you don’t even have this bit of confidence, then I…”
Just as Mondeo was about to refute, the personal terminals on the four of them received a notification that they had received a new message.
The four of them lowered their heads in surprise and opened their personal terminals. Mondeo took a look and immediately shouted happily.
“Ha, the ranking points for the entrance examination have been given out! What about you?”
“Of course we received it.” Saar waved his personal terminal. “I’m the standard for the 51-100th place. I’m rewarded with 200 points. What about you?”
“200?” Mondeo glared at him and did not answer for the time being. Instead, he turned to Tanaka Iyoko and asked, “What did you get?”
Tanaka Iyoko shook his head with a bitter smile, “I barely passed the entrance examination. I only got 50 points.”
“Only 50? Haha, then I feel better.” Mondeo immediately became proud again, “I have 100 points, twice yours.”
Saar rolled his eyes at him and pointed at Chu Nan. “Chu Nan is ranked eighth here. What are you so proud of?”
“That’s true.” Mondeo patted his head and leaned towards Chu Nan. He glanced at the virtual screen opened by his personal terminal and immediately cried out, “Damn! 500 points! So many?”
Hearing this number, Saar and Tanaka Iyoko also looked surprised, but they were immediately relieved.
“After all, he’s ranked eighth. He definitely has more than us. Speaking of which, do you know how much the first place, Rudy Karl, got?”
“I remember that there’s an announcement from the academy, right? Let me see…” Mondeo used his personal terminal to inquire and quickly obtained the answer, “Damn, Rudy Karl was rewarded with an additional 2,000 points? This is too ridiculous…”
“There’s nothing to joke about. After all, he’s first. What are you dissatisfied about? Chu Nan, you have 500 points now. Work harder…”
Saar shrugged and turned around to ask Chu Nan what he planned to do. However, he was stunned when he saw that the virtual screen in front of Chu Nan had already displayed the interface of the academy’s martial arts database.
“Chu Nan, don’t tell me you…”
Mondeo and Tanaka Iyoko also looked over and were shocked when they discovered Chu Nan’s actions.
“Chu Nan, are you really crazy?” Mondeo could not help but shout.
Chu Nan’s fingers were like the wind and quickly completed the action of submitting several points to the database to exchange for martial techniques.
Hearing Mondeo’s shout, he only smiled, but his hands did not stop moving.
Saar and the other two could only look at his actions speechlessly. They wanted to stop him, but Chu Nan had clearly made up his mind. They knew that it was useless to stop him.
“Alright, you’ve only got 500 points, but you’ve actually spent them all again. You’re simply crazier than me…”

Mondeo shook his head and could not be bothered to waste his breath. Just as he was about to turn around and continue towards the canteen, he suddenly discovered that a few students were walking towards them.
From the uniform on their bodies, they should be senior students.
Those people walked straight to the four of them and their gazes locked onto Chu Nan. The tall and extremely muscular European blond man walking in front asked in a low voice, “You’re Chu Nan?”
Chu Nan frowned and raised his head.
These guys clearly did not come with good intentions, but he was certain that he did not know them.
“I am. Why?”
The blond man glanced at Chu Nan and sneered, “Kid, stay away from Angie Prairie in the future!”
