Su Miu's sudden question drew everyone's attention. Under their gazes, he slowly spoke.
"Dean Xiao, if we Summoning System students win this competition, all we do is keep our own resources. If we lose, we lose resources that belonged to us in the first place."
"I think that rule is unfair. Shouldn't you at least give us Summoning System students a chance? For example... I'll challenge the entire freshman class.
"The Lightning Element department can send a hundred people to defend its resources, and the Light Element department can send a hundred. The Water Element, Earth Element, Wind Element, and even the rarer white magic, black magic, and Dimension Element departments can do the same."
"If I defeat a department, I get all its cultivation resources. That would be fair."
Those words, which treated everyone else as beneath his notice, immediately sparked outrage. The students stared at the man who wanted to take their resources as though he were their mortal enemy.
"We have indeed considered this matter. Beyond the hundred-opponent passing threshold in the Freshman Beast Fighting Competition, there is another benchmark."
"If a Summoning System student can defeat two hundred freshmen attacking in successive waves, that student can take the resources of every department."
Dean Xiao nodded slightly, then revealed the hidden benchmark. Su Miu smiled at that and amplified his voice with magic energy.
"Well, that's perfect. Sorry, everyone, but I believe opportunities belong to those destined to seize them. As it happens, Pearl Academy is an academy that fits my philosophy perfectly."
He paused, seemingly weighing his words-or perhaps giving everyone time to process them-before quickly continuing.
"As everyone knows, the Summoning System burns through money. So I challenge every freshman once again. However many challengers there are, I'll take you all on. Give it everything
