My Talent Panel Can Add Points

Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Support System Monthly Exam

Oh no!

She really hit the nail on the head!

Ye Mingqiu’s face, already grim, turned even gloomier, as he began searching online for basic information and reviews about Rejuvenation X6.

Since the product was recommended in Tang Ruobing’s guide, he didn’t pay much attention and bought it right away. The purchase channel was school-affiliated, with discounts and strict quality control, so buying from the school was reassuring.

Then there’s only one problem, and that’s that Rejuvenation X6 itself is questionable!

Other single-attribute amplification agents generally cost 60,000 to 70,000 to increase 1 point of attribute, while the cost-effectiveness of Rejuvenation X6 is directly doubled; 33,000 could increase 1 point of Spirit, which was astonishingly efficient. The downside was its significant side effects, which was exactly why Ye Mingqiu found it appealing at first glance.

Could there still be any hidden side effects that weren’t clearly listed?

Ye Mingqiu was anxious.

The result was...

There truly were no other side effects!

But that’s normal; if there really were hidden side effects not listed, the school wouldn’t have allowed it to be on the shelves, as safety is the top priority for drugs.

However, the pain during the usage process was more than imagined, causing most people to be unable to persist through an entire course, resulting in an average attribute increase of 3, instead of the notion that it could only increase by 3 points.

Goodness...

No wonder my performance against the Sith Dragon was worse on the second day than the first; Rejuvenation X6’s effect was stronger on the second day than the first, directly boosting 0.6 Spirit. So, this thing’s strength increases in stages! Can I endure the third night?

Hiss... I think I should be able to; the average Spirit increase is 3, indicating that enduring to 3 is normal. My willpower should be enough...

That’s not right!

If the theory classes covered Rejuvenation X6, then most students would know its characteristics, so most users must be those compelled by financial constraints but have strong willpower! After all, using this indeed saves money; for the same attribute increase, one could directly save 100,000! A boon for the poor!

Where on earth is this from?

Look more closely!

Rejuvenation X6 is produced by Giant Pharmaceutical, known for high efficacy and low prices; each product from them is a strong drug. Besides the Rejuvenation series for increasing Spirit, there’s also the Titan series for increasing Power, the Hydra series for increasing Constitution, and so on.

More importantly, Giant Pharmaceutical is a research company, selling agents just to make a profit incidentally; its main goal is still to create agents that can increase attributes for Spiritualists.

Improving attributes for ordinary people and increasing values for Spiritualists are two different concepts. Spiritualists, through the Spirit Realm trials and profession baptism, possess stronger basic attributes, anomaly resistance, and consequently, greatly enhanced immunity to various drugs, so ordinary agents can’t significantly affect Spiritualists.

Even so, scientists at the forefront of technology are constantly striving, hoping to create agents for Spiritualists.

The Rejuvenation, Titan, and Hydra series are secondary products of such research.

After all, research also requires funding.

These potent agents indeed greatly help those who are financially strained but possess strong willpower. They just need to spend less money to get a larger attribute increase.

That’s why Giant Pharmaceutical’s feats are included in textbooks for broad learning among students.

”Speaking of, since Giant Pharmaceutical produces consistently affordable and potent agents, why don’t I check out their official store for any such affordable supplements? I need a lot of energy for attribute points,” Ye Mingqiu thought to himself.

He clicked into the Giant Pharmaceutical store but did not find energy supplements. Though momentarily puzzled, Ye Mingqiu soon came to realize why.

Enhancing basic attributes and replenishing energy are two different concepts, with differing difficulties. He recalled previously seeing supplements in the school’s infirmary for 50,000 per vial that could provide approximately 10-15 Life points, with gentle and controllable effects.

Replenishing energy doesn’t require altering oneself like enhancing basic attributes does; one just needs to refill. Therefore, Giant Pharmaceutical has no necessity to research it.

What a pity!

....

Three days later, Ye Mingqiu, as pale as a ghost, staggered along the road. Chen Ran quietly supported his brother while taking a sip from a freshly purchased Energy Stimulant, thinking: Now, I don’t envy him at all.

”How are you feeling now? Today is the monthly exam. With your mental state... can you handle it? How about just taking a leave? After all, you have the identity of a college entrance exam prep team member, so taking leave won’t matter,” Chen Ran expressed concern.

”No way! Absolutely not!”

Ye Mingqiu suddenly perked up, his bloodshot eyes widening, face twisted.

For five days, he continuously consumed Rejuvenation X6 to enhance his mental attributes, fought against the Sith Dragon collectively, and received four injections of Lü Bolong, greatly increasing his attributes to improve himself before the monthly exam, aiming to make a strong impression.

Now the monthly exam is imminent, and Chen Ran suggests giving up the exam to rest; what a joke!

”But... in your current state, I doubt you can even walk steadily, I’m really worried.”

”There’s nothing to worry about, the monthly exam is just testing attributes. I just need to touch the Testing Stone to display my attributes. I can always rest in the infirmary for a couple of days afterward,” Ye Mingqiu said with determination.

”Alright then.”

....

In Class 9 of Senior Year 3, a light blue stone, the attribute Testing Stone, was placed in front of the class. Just a touch would display the user’s basic attributes, but it couldn’t test the attributes of Spiritualists, making it a tool exclusively for ordinary people.

Whenever the attribute Testing Stone is placed at the front of the class, the classmates’ hearts would tighten as the rankings of basic attributes would significantly influence the resources they can receive next month. If rankings drop, the resources they get become less.

Apart from some display-only students or those saving up to buy agents for significant attribute enhancement, most ordinary students cared about their rankings.

”Creak.”

The classroom door opened, and Chen Ran supported Ye Mingqiu as they entered, drawing everyone’s attention with varied expressions.

”Fifth day... what a tough guy.”

Xia Qingxue sighed.

As the top of the Support System and the only one who succeeded in the Spirit Realm trials, she initially disliked Ye Mingqiu, who had climbed through connections, and had even planned to show him who’s boss.

But once she saw him actually use Rejuvenation to boost his attributes, her attitude shifted subtly, from disgust to admiration, which over time grew stronger.

Rejuvenation X6, normal people basically can’t use it, only the relentlessly determined do.

Wonder how much this guy’s improved...
