My Talent Panel Can Add Points

Chapter 10: Chapter 10: Benefits and Traps

”Firstly, members of the college entrance exam prep team will enjoy benefits of a free health examination the first time each month, half price for the second time, full price from the third time onwards, and 20% off on shopping at the school.”

”It feels like the same perks as the Support System, can they stack?” Ye Mingqiu asked expectantly, thinking that if he could get two 20% discounts, it would be a 36% discount, making things much cheaper.

”No, they cannot.”

The director of student affairs denied it, seeing the disappointed Ye Mingqiu, teased, ”The Support System’s perks in this regard are already top-notch, maxed out. How could they stack? Other systems need to join the college entrance exam prep team to enjoy the basic benefits of the Support System, you’ve been enjoying them two years early, just be secretly happy about it.”

”Oh.”

”Secondly, all public facilities within the school will be fully open to you for free, and you’ll be given an exclusive training room. You can customize training equipment to a certain extent, like how Tang Ruobing previously printed your face on the training target, which is part of customization.”

”Oh~”

Ye Mingqiu pondered for a while and asked, ”Can I customize her a special cup to get back at her?”

”?”

”I’m talking about a drinking cup!”

Ye Mingqiu added, sensing the director’s gaze was a bit off, he didn’t expect the old man to have such a dirty mind.

”You can, but if you do that, we can’t help if she causes trouble for you.” the director replied.

”Isn’t she afraid I’ll cause trouble for her for abusing my portrait rights?” Ye Mingqiu retorted.

”You can’t beat her.”

”....”

Ye Mingqiu was speechless and shouted, ”Bullying, this is blatant campus bullying. I demand the school intervene and bring Tang Ruobing to justice!”

”Can’t you think about defeating her yourself? Don’t you have any ambition!”

”I’m in the Support System, she’s in the Magic System, should I use my head to fight her?” Ye Mingqiu was heartbroken, his expression twisted as if wearing a mask of pain.

”Pff...”

”Director, why are you laughing! Did you deliberately insult me just now!” Ye Mingqiu said indignantly.

”Ahem, the third benefit is that you can assign a teacher to help you train in a specific specialty, thereby having stronger strength when entering the Spirit Realm trials.”

”However, training specialties takes a long time, if you spend too much time on them, resulting in passing the Spirit Realm trials late and being at a low level... that would be counterproductive, as the college entrance exam does not restrict the candidates’ level.”

”What level is Tang Ruobing now?”

”Level 8, every since passing the trial two years ago, she’s been continuously improving herself, which is the level of the first tier for the entrance exam, you can’t catch up with her.” Zheng Xuejun said with a smile.

”Is there no possibility at all?” Ye Mingqiu pursued.

”Well... it’s not entirely impossible, if you can consistently solo Hell Level dungeons in team mode with high evaluations, you might be able to level up quickly and reach Level 8 before the exam... pff.”

The director of student affairs couldn’t hold back his laugh as he spoke, he really couldn’t contain it.

Letting a Support System solo Hell dungeons in team mode, that’s just too funny, there’s no way someone can do it, especially every time, not just once, it’s absolutely impossible.

Typically, the combat power of the Support System is weak, and can only follow others in a group, with a fixed team it’s fine as leveling is guaranteed. If there’s no fixed team, the cooldown time of the Spirit Realm will be wasted, greatly delaying leveling efficiency.

Of course, generally, it’s not that the Support System can’t find a team, but rather they look down on the other’s setup, so they are unwilling to join.

Low ratings yield low returns, it’s better to wait for a strong team to score highly, even if it means wasting some time, it’s worth it.

Well then...

Ye Mingqiu fell into deep thought, looking at the plus sign on his Talent Panel, felt he must show some perseverance and effort.

”The fourth and most important benefit is that members of the college entrance exam prep team have one opportunity to enter Chenghai City’s Spring of Life for a deep purification of toxins, enhancing potential and aptitude,” Zheng Xuejun said.

”Spring of Life?”

Ye Mingqiu’s eyes widened instantly, thinking if he could soak in the Spring of Life to add points, how many talents could he add?

The director of student affairs smiled and said, ”If I’m not mistaken, you’ve been relying on natural exercise until now? You should’ve taken supplements before coming here today, though you attempted to hide it, this kind of thing is evident to me.”

”That’s right.”

”I suggest you use up your supplements first, raise your Basic Attributes as much as possible, then soak in the Spring of Life to restore your body to its best state, and then use supplements again to bring your Basic Attributes to 20 before attending the Spirit Realm trials to pass as quickly as possible.” The director advised.

”What about specialties? Doesn’t training them take a long time?” Ye Mingqiu asked.

”Hehe.”

Zheng Xuejun suddenly laughed, ”Go find Tang Ruobing, she can help you solve the specialty level problem in a short time.”

”Tang Ruobing?”

Ye Mingqiu’s face instantly soured, but at the same time, he felt something was off. Why didn’t the director give him an answer directly, and instead told him to find Tang Ruobing? Moreover, the supplements + Spring of Life + supplements combo also requires a lot of funds, which he probably couldn’t assemble quickly.

Could it be...

He thought of a terrifying possibility, but soon dismissed it, convincing himself: No, no, no, impossible, absolutely impossible! I just made a small threat while chatting, is that enough to mess with me this way?

”Classmate, keep it up, teacher believes you will succeed!” Zheng Xuejun patted his shoulder with a serious smile.

Hey, hey, hey!

Your gaze seems a bit off!

Why do I feel like you’re looking at a martyr? Am I already dead in your eyes?

Hmph!

Ye Mingqiu said angrily, ”Well, thank you for your kind words, director.”

There’s no choice, the person is the director and doesn’t harbor any malice, he can’t just knock his hand aside, right? That would be too much.

Alas!

Walking out of the office, Ye Mingqiu, feeling a mix of excitement and anxiety, opened the chat screen with Broken Ice Sugar, his expression becoming extremely serious. After an intense mental struggle, he had to make a compromise.

Ye Mingqiu: Are you there?

Broken Ice Sugar: Get lost!

Her scolding was harsh, but her response was instant, indicating she has some feelings, it’s not hopeless, a little effort might suffice.

But...

Ye Mingqiu furrowed his eyebrows, thinking: If I really do this, won’t I become the kept man Chen Ran accused me of? Won’t I become the one relying on a rich woman?

Is this really okay?

He stood in the hallway, pondering for a long time, with an incredibly complicated mood.

Eventually, Ye Mingqiu came to a full realization.

After all, my explanations will not convince Chen Ran, nor will my classmates believe me, they all say I’m a kept man, yet I haven’t even managed to be one, it’s frustrating.

If I neither manage to, nor insist on not doing it, and still get misunderstood...

Wouldn’t that be the ultimate idiot?
