Chapter 126: Chapter 124: Credit Reward Rules

「The next day, 9:00 AM.」

East Sea Martial Arts University, Flight Academy, A-1 Research and Development Department.

Han Feng pushed the door open and walked in.

Over twenty people were already seated in the massive lecture hall.

Every one of them had a steady aura and bulging temples, clear signs that they were all High Tier Martial Artists of the Body Tempering Realm.

They wore various styles of training uniforms, each with a B Level Student badge pinned to their chest.

The atmosphere in the classroom was somewhat somber.

The students were clearly divided into several small cliques, conversing in low voices.

But more of them chose to close their eyes and rest, adjusting their condition.

Han Feng’s arrival didn’t attract much attention.

He casually found a seat in the back row by the window and sat down.

"What the hell! Old Han?"

A coarse voice, thick with surprise, boomed from behind him.

Han Feng turned around.

A brawny figure was striding toward him. It was Wang Meng.

Two other people were with him.

One was Gu Yun, dressed in a flashy white Flight Suit.

The other was Li Wei, the elite test pilot he had met once before.

"Brother Meng, Gu Yun, Senior Brother Li."

Han Feng nodded in acknowledgment.

Wang Meng plopped down in the seat next to Han Feng, and the chair let out a groan as if under unbearable weight.

He looked Han Feng up and down, his eyes widening, especially at the brand-new B Level badge on his chest.

"Well, look at you!"

"It’s only been a few days, and you’ve already had a major upgrade, huh?"

"Jumping straight from a C Level Technician to a B Level Martial Arts Student?"

Wang Meng’s booming voice instantly drew the gazes of many people nearby.

Gu Yun crossed his arms, pursed his lips, and his tone was tinged with sourness.

"Don’t you like fixing planes?"

"What are you doing here, trying to take food off our plates?"

Li Wei was much calmer. He smiled at Han Feng.

"Junior Brother Han Feng, congratulations on your promotion."

"I knew it. With your Talent, you couldn’t possibly stay in the maintenance department forever."

Everyone attending this Enhancement Class was an elite who had secured a spot for the Suspended Mountain Secret Realm.

Wang Meng and Gu Yun never expected to run into Han Feng here.

"How did you get a spot?"

Wang Meng lowered his voice and asked curiously.

"Pretty much all the spots have been assigned by now."

"I helped someone fix a plane, and they gave it to me."

Han Feng said it nonchalantly.

"Fixing a plane?"

The corner of Wang Meng’s mouth twitched.

’What kind of damn reason is that?’

’He got a spot for Suspended Mountain just by fixing a plane?’

’Was that plane made of gold?’

But on second thought, Han Feng’s skill at fixing planes was indeed unfathomable.

’The guy can turn a scrapped trainer jet into an ace fighter. It’s not impossible he really did run into some big shot.’

He didn’t press the issue, just clapped Han Feng heavily on the shoulder.

"Alright! You’ve got skills!"

"Once we’re in the Secret Realm, we brothers will watch each other’s backs!"

Just then, the classroom door was pushed open again.

A woman in a black instructor’s uniform walked in.

She looked to be around thirty, with an upright posture, a head of neat short hair, and a cold expression.

The moment she appeared, the entire classroom fell silent.

She was the instructor for this Enhancement Class, Qin Yueyao.

Qin Yueyao walked to the lectern, her gaze sweeping over everyone present.

Her gaze carried a scrutinizing pressure, causing many to subconsciously straighten their backs.

"Everyone, welcome to the ’High Level Winged Flight and Air Combat Application’ Enhancement Class."

Her voice, like her appearance, was cold, crisp, and devoid of any superfluous emotion.

"The fact that you’re sitting here means you have all obtained the qualifications to enter the Tier Two Secret Realm, ’Suspended Mountain’."

"I presume you all have some understanding of what kind of place Suspended Mountain is."

"It is a shattered space composed of countless Floating Islands."

"The only means of transportation is the Wingsuit."

She paused, her tone growing heavier.

"I must remind you, this Enhancement Class is not for complete rookies."

"Every one of you must have achieved a rating of ’Good’ or higher in the basic virtual test."

"And the core of our course is actual combat!"

"The Secret Realm is crawling with Flying Demon Beasts."

"When you’re gliding between Floating Islands, you could be attacked at any moment."

"Once your balance is broken and you lose your speed, if you fall..."

A cold smirk touched the corners of Qin Yueyao’s lips.

"The very bottom of the Secret Realm is the ’Blood Sea’."

"That isn’t water. It is an Energy Abyss that corrodes flesh and devours souls."

"If you fall in, there is no chance of survival. Not even an Immortal could save you."

"Out of a sense of responsibility to you all, the university does not wish to see the elites it has spent resources cultivating die for such a foolish reason."

"Therefore, at the end of the training, anyone who fails to meet the standard in the practical combat assessment will have their eligibility to enter the Secret Realm revoked immediately."

As soon as she said this, an uproar broke out among the students.

Many hadn’t expected the university’s requirements to be so strict.

"Of course, where there are punishments, there are also rewards."

Qin Yueyao seemed quite pleased with their reaction.

She raised her hand and tapped on the lectern’s light screen, and a dazzling exchange list was projected before everyone.

"To motivate you, and also to increase your survival rate in the Secret Realm."

"The academy has specially approved a batch of rare strategic resources for use in the Suspended Mountain Secret Realm."

Everyone’s gaze was instantly drawn to the list; even Han Feng felt a stir of interest.

"To obtain them, you will need credits."

"The method for earning credits is simple: through each assessment."

"A ’Pass’ rating gets you 0 points."

"’Good’ gets you 1-3 points." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"’Excellent’ gets you 4-6 points."

"’Outstanding’ gets you 7-10 points."

"After the course ends, you will exchange items in order of your total point ranking."

"The higher your rank, the more choices you have."

"Those with lower ranks can only pick over what the others have left."

The breathing of the students began to quicken.

The items on that list were simply too tempting!

[Tier Two Upper Grade · Space-Breaking Talisman (Pack of 3)]: Credits Required: 80, Stock: 1.

(Activate to perform a short-range spatial jump, ignoring physical obstacles. A divine life-saving item.)

[Tier Two Upper Grade · Soul-Stabilizing Pearl]: Credits Required: 60, Stock: 2.

(Can resist high-intensity Spiritual Contamination during the "Gray Period" and assists in tempering one’s spiritual Will.)

[Tier Two Middle Grade · Floating Feather]: Credits Required: 40, Stock: 3.

(Activate during an unexpected fall to hover in mid-air for thirty seconds, providing a chance for self-rescue.)

[Tier Two Lower Grade · Clear Heart Talisman]: Credits Required: 15, Stock: 10.

(Weakens spiritual interference during the "Gray Period.")

...

From top-tier items like the Tier Two Upper Grade ones, to various support Potions and special materials, the list had everything.

These items were impossible to buy on the open market; they were special supplies specifically for the environment of Suspended Mountain.

Especially the Space-Breaking Talisman and the Soul-Stabilizing Pearl—they were practically an extra life!

Everyone’s eyes turned red as a fierce fighting spirit ignited within them.

This was no longer just a training session, but a war for rare resources!

Seeing the students’ soaring morale, Qin Yueyao nodded in satisfaction.

The items on the light screen ranged from Tier Two Upper Grade down to Tier One, covering everything one might need.

Every single one was a life-saving treasure for the Suspended Mountain Secret Realm.

The ones listed at the very top, in particular, made everyone’s breath catch.

"Good. I like the look in your eyes right now."

Qin Yueyao nodded in satisfaction.

"Competition breeds progress."

She picked up a datapad and glanced at the list on it.

"I’ve looked over your files. All of your basic virtual training scores are ’Good’ or higher."

"That being the case, there’s no need to waste time on a virtual assessment."

She looked up and announced a decision that no one had anticipated.

"Starting today, we will proceed directly to practical training!"

"I’m giving you one day to practice three basic practical skills."

"The first assessment will be held at this time tomorrow."

"Now, everyone on your feet. Follow me to the training grounds."

After speaking, Qin Yueyao turned and left without the slightest hesitation.

Inside the classroom, the group of elite students froze for half a second before scrambling to follow her.

Their plan to warm up in the virtual world first was now completely down the drain.

This sudden pressure of actual combat put everyone on high alert.

The Wingsuit Flying training grounds were located in an open-air area of the academy, a vast expanse of simulated mountainous terrain.

There were towering platforms, rugged canyons, and generators that simulated various complex air currents.

Qin Yueyao led the group to the equipment depot and pointed to the rows of Wingsuits hanging on the walls.

"Pick a suit that fits you and put it on."
