Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1688: Chapter 1668:

I always feel that this points system, how should I put it? It’s filled with an eerie sense.

Qianqian dared not look up, but she knew the prices above were even more exaggerated.

As the ones with the most Glory Points in their class, they only had over three hundred thousand.

They couldn’t even exchange for a weapon.

Plus, she wasn’t very accustomed to this Thousand Mechanism Box. The academy’s special weapon was pretty much just a kind of identity recognition tool, rarely used in practice.

”Did you guys ever think...” He Wenyu suddenly swallowed, his eyes flickering with a peculiar brilliance.

”What?” Qianqian quickly turned to He Wenyu.

”We’re new students, but the academy doesn’t only have new students.” A luminous light shone in He Wenyu’s eyes.

These words awakened the dreamers; the remaining few stared at each other, and Qianqian directly jumped up, ready to rush out of the classroom.

”Hey, where are you going?” He Wenyu reached out to grasp Qianqian.

”I’m going to find someone to ask!” Qianqian said with a look that seemed entirely logical.

”Look at the time, what time is it now?” He Wenyu looked at her helplessly. Even if they wanted to ask, there’s no rush now as the month had just started a couple of days ago.

”...You’re right.” Qianqian froze, then slightly squinted her eyes. Speaking of asking questions, she did have a good candidate, after all, it was her who invited him first, wasn’t it?

After resting for a while, they left the classroom, not forgetting to pack up their things and lock the door.

The enemy teamed up with Long Tu to transport these three back to the dormitory, ensuring they were lying down smoothly before returning to their own dormitory.

When Qianqian returned to the dorm, Luo Mier was already asleep.

Qianqian could only cautiously complete her wash-up and promptly go to sleep, not wanting to disturb someone having a good night’s sleep.

The next day was a repeat of the first day’s events, except this time, someone was unwilling to cooperate...

”You say ditch class, we’ll ditch class; then we’re supposed to attend class? Why?”

”Exactly, we’re not going!”

”Has the teacher mandated attendance?”

He Wenyu and Qianqian looked at each other, helplessly.

After their ’lessons’ yesterday, ten or so from their class successfully skipped class, yet what surprised them was that all the ’backdoor’ classmates appeared in the classroom, clearly not having done anything detrimental to themselves due to their absence yesterday.

Because they went through the ’backdoor’, they cherished this opportunity even more.

The instructor, seeing fewer students, said nothing, continuing with the lesson as though nothing happened.

This behavior baffled the students attending, as it seemed the teacher didn’t care?

So could they assume...

Except for the seven who heard the instructor’s words yesterday, everyone was calmly attending the class, without any unusual behavior.

After class, Qianqian did not dine with He Wenyu but naturally went to the entrance of the cafeteria, seeking out the fool who offered himself, Shui Yuntian.

Aside from Bai Yinshu, Qianqian didn’t appear to know anyone else from other grades, but since Bai Yinshu never appeared again after they started attending classes regularly, maybe he’s busy with other matters?

”You’re quite punctual.” Seeing Qianqian, Shui Yuntian seemed rather surprised.

He felt the chances of Qianqian not showing up were high.

However, upon seeing Qianqian, he smiled slightly: ”Got something to ask me?”

Though unfamiliar with Qianqian, he could surely affirm one thing: Qianqian wouldn’t appear on time unless she had something to ask.

”Yeah, I’m treating you to a meal.” Qianqian smiled, saying nothing more.

Inside the cafeteria, Shui Yuntian didn’t order anything expensive, just moderately priced meals, and Qianqian ordered the same. Sitting face to face, they quietly finished their meal.

After eating, Shui Yuntian elegantly wiped his mouth: ”It’s far inferior to what you get at Forget Worries Tea House.”

”I’ll have to agree with that.” Qianqian nodded, acknowledging the truth. It’s like comparing mass meals to private chef quality, right?

”Speak your mind, then. It wouldn’t be right to eat without offering anything in return.” Shui Yuntian calmly looked at Qianqian, devoid of any emotional indication she could grasp. No gossip, curiosity, or understanding; he showed no signs of anything, just calmness.

Leaving her momentarily unsure of how to begin.

After a long silence, she asked: ”The academy’s monthly assessments...”

”That... The first month’s assessments won’t differ much, generally speaking. But if the class ranks last, the gap will widen in the second month. That’s all I can say.” Shui Yuntian wasn’t secretive but didn’t divulge much either, leaving Qianqian bewildered and deeply confused, unable to comprehend it fully.

”Actually, you’ve probably heard this phrase.” Shui Yuntian studied Qianqian’s expression, remaining serene.

”What?” She looked puzzled.

”In this academy, there’s nothing that can’t be bought,” Shui Yuntian smiled, ”Thanks for the meal, your friends are looking for you, I better leave.” Noticing a group not far behind Qianqian, Shui Yuntian indifferent raised an eyebrow, stood up, and departed.

Qianqian was left bemused, finding this person hard to understand.

Even more complex than Mo and Yan...

But not long after Shui Yuntian left, several others arrived; He Wenyu quickly sat down, eyeing Qianqian’s empty plate with a puzzled look: ”What did you eat to finish it all?”

”Nothing special always, right? Or your stash won’t last long.” Qianqian calmly replied: ”Did you get any news?”

Di Jun shook his head: ”Don’t know why, but regarding the month’s end exams, even other classes and other grades’ Yellow Class also tabooed it strangely.”

”Really?” Qianqian took a deep breath: ”I did get some potentially important news though.”

All eyes were on her.

”Shui Yuntian said for the first monthly assessment, gaps shouldn’t be large, but if we rank last, the gaps will widen in subsequent assessments.” She then turned her gaze directly to Di Jun: ”Any news from the Mystery Class recently?”

”No, but their class takes their lessons seriously, unlike our current state. Let’s not even mention Heaven and Earth classes...”

Those two classes not only started early but added extra lessons for themselves, making it impossible for them to compete.
