"Is that Ning Chuan?! He looks so different from how he appeared in the video that day. He looks so clean and Xiuxiu, like the boy next door, not intimidating at all!"
Many freshmen turned their gazes in this direction, looking quite curious.
So much so that they started talking to strangers around them.
"No sense of pressure? As one of the examinees who crossed the Heroic Spirit Bridge, I'm still trembling when I see him!"
"Agreed, I don't dare carry too much stuff with me when I go out now!"
"It's normal that you're not afraid of Ning Chuan now. A strong person like him only reveals his full power and makes people afraid to look him in the eye when he makes a move. Otherwise, he's like a sharp sword hidden in its sheath!"
Most of the comments were filled with admiration and envy.
However, some were filled with burning fighting spirit.
"Everyone has their moment of glory. The Freshman Exchange Competition the day after tomorrow will be my chance to defeat Ning Chuan, and that will be my greatest honor!"
" The Freshman Exchange Competition will restrict the strong, but we might still have a chance!"
"As long as Ning Chuan's Divine Weapon is disabled, I am confident I can suppress him!"
"Don't blindly idolize Ning Chuan. Those students specially recruited by Galaxy University are the real hidden talents!"
A cacophony of voices swept through the room, drawing the attention of even more students.
In an instant, the entire airport terminal was in an uproar.
"Let's leave first; the car is parked outside."
Tang Qianjun glanced at Ning Chuan and teased, "I have to say, your fame is probably only comparable to that of Heavenly King!"
" Dean Tang, please give me a ride too. I've never ridden in your car before!"
Wang Ke raised her arm high and said with a smile, "As payment, I volunteer to be your tour guide for this campus visit!"
Tang Qianjun nodded in agreement, jokingly saying, "Ke, you're fine as a tour guide, but nothing else!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Chuan couldn't help but glance at Wang Ke.
Among the hundreds of thousands of students at the Martial Arts Academy, Tang Qianjun could recall her name.
Wang Ke wouldn't be an unknown figure at school.
"What's with the suspicion in your eyes? I'm on the Heroes Ranking, after all. Does Dean Tang even know what problems I have?"
Wang Ke rolled his eyes.
During the conversation, the three of them left the airport.
Song Shiyu and Shi Feng didn't come along because they had to go to the New Student Reception Area to register. They agreed to meet Ning Chuan tomorrow to discuss matters related to the Freshman Exchange Competition.
On campus.
Tang Qianjun's hovercar was more than ten meters off the ground, moving smoothly.
"After passing through the first three teaching buildings, you'll reach the school's commercial area, which boasts a large supermarket, a cinema, restaurants, and other entertainment venues—everything you could want. Many students also rent stalls there to sell their wares."
Wang Ke, sitting in the passenger seat, turned slightly to introduce Ning Chuan in the back.
Galaxy University is so vast that, for the convenience of students and faculty, it has been divided into different areas according to the function of each building.
Teaching, accommodation, training, secret realms, commerce, martial arts...
Soon, the hovercar drove into the commercial area.
The crowds were bustling and jostling.
Billboards are everywhere along both sides of the road.
"Spark Energy Liquid, nearing its expiration date, is being sold at a 20% discount! A dozen for only 500 million yuan!"
" Martial Annihilation Type-Three Mecha - Modified Version, with a 30% increase in overall performance, priced at only 1500 credits!"
"I'll teach you how to climb to the Heroes Ranking in 10 days! One lesson costs only 10 credits! What are you waiting for, juniors?!"
Under this billboard, many freshmen looked up to see what was there.
Several people are making phone calls using the contact information provided.
Wang Ke withdrew his gaze and said helplessly, "Every year around this time, there are always a few freshmen who firmly believe in these advertisements that promise to help them climb the Heroes Ranking, and end up wasting their credits!"
Ning Chuan looked around with a curious gaze and asked, "Are the credits mentioned in the advertisement the same concept as earning credits for completing a course?"
"They're considered the same type of credit!"
Wang Ke said, thought for a moment, then shook his head slightly and said, "However, in terms of concept, there is a certain difference compared to the credits of other universities."
Besides taking courses, there are many other ways to earn credits!
Wang Ke gave an example. "Participating in some competitions organized by the school."
Complete the tasks assigned by your supervisor.
Make outstanding contributions in a certain field.
And for top ten freshmen like you, the school will directly award you 500 credits upon enrollment!
Hearing this, Ning Chuan understood.
The credits at Galaxy University are, in some ways, similar to the points earned at the Mountain and Sea Genius Training Camp.
Ning Chuan pondered for a moment, then asked, "What is the exchange rate between academic credits and Federation cash?"
Tang Qianjun turned his head and said, "School rules prohibit the exchange between the two."
However, there are still some channels in the school's black market.
The exact exchange rate varies daily, but it's roughly 1 point = over 10 million yuan!
Wang Ke added, "Even if the school rules don't prohibit it, very few people exchange points for money on the black market; most of the time, it's just merchants waiting to buy points!"
Ning Chuan seemed to understand something, and said, "Is it because some precious resources can only be exchanged for academic credits?"
"Um."
Wang Ke nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "The credit exchange rate is actually quite high!"
For example, a common Ten Thousand Beasts Nutrient Solution has a market price of over 12 million.
At Galaxy University, it costs 3 credits.
In other words, one credit is worth about 4 million, but it can be exchanged for more than 10 million on the black market.
It looks like a huge profit.
However, practically no Student Council that!
Tang Qianjun chimed in, "Ke is right."
Academic credits are the true currency of Galaxy University.
Divine General one-on-one private guidance.
A drug that allows one to break through the bottleneck of cultivation level.
Secret realms that accelerate martial arts training, etc.
They can only be purchased with academic credits!
After hearing their explanations, a glint of light flashed in Ning Chuan's eyes.
He seems to have found a way to make money.
Earn the difference by exchanging points for cash.
For other students, rare resources are more important than money.
But he's not like that.
Martial arts training is automatic.
He has almost no bottlenecks and only needs relatively basic resources.
For example, high-quality energy liquids and Sharpness Qi can be purchased with money.
"However, the prerequisite for profiting from the price difference is that I need to obtain a large number of credits. 500 credits are far from enough for my needs!"
Ning Chuan thought to himself.
He then gathered his thoughts and stopped thinking about it.
He was new to Galaxy University and would make plans after he got to know it better.
The hovercar continued forward, quickly leaving the commercial area and entering the school's secret zone.
Compared to the bustling commercial district, this area is much quieter, with few high-rise buildings and mostly low-rise buildings, but it has a lot of charm.
Wang Ke said with a serious expression, "The Secret Realm is where Galaxy University's true strength lies!"
Galaxy University is able to cultivate so many powerful individuals not only because of the students' exceptional talent, but also because of the various secret realms that play an incredibly important role!
