Xiaohei: "..."
"Hurry up, I need to learn your bark language, this is a very serious matter," Xiang Beifei insisted solemnly.
Xiaohei, looking disgusted and reluctant, barked: "Woof woof woof."
As this bark language was spoken, the ability to Learn by Analogy added something to Xiang Beifei\'s mind, as if some barriers had been broken through. He sorted out the meaning of Xiaohei\'s barks.
Xiaohei\'s bark language had only one sound, but depending on the speed and tone of the barks, as well as the pauses between barks, it conveyed different meanings.
So, their conversation became quite peculiar.
"So, now that I\'ve activated the Horn Constellation, if I want to gain another ability, I need to light up the Arrogant Dragon Constellation next?"
"Woof woof woof!"
"The Arrogant Dragon Constellation has four stars, does that mean I need to obtain four rewards from other people\'s systems? Any reward will do?"
"Woof woof woof!"
"Oh, it has to be a reward from a system of the same realm as mine or higher? Then why don\'t I just not upgrade and participate in other people\'s system tasks as a normal person?"
"Woof woof woof!"
"Oh, that won\'t work?"
...
Xiang Beifei basically understood what Xiaohei meant.
This world was filled with abundant Spiritual Energy, and being able to absorb Spiritual Energy to improve oneself was key to advancing one\'s realm.
For cultivators wanting to absorb this Spiritual Energy, progressing in cultivation was very slow if relying solely on oneself.
The existence of the system was to make everyone\'s cultivation faster. The system each person awakened would assess the host\'s situation and assist people in this world in different ways. No matter what profession they were in, the system could help them achieve their goals faster and become stronger.
In the world of systems, Spiritual Energy was key!
When other people advanced their realms, they could rely on the system to extract Spiritual Energy and convert it into system rewards. For example, a Qi-Controlling Pill could directly advance someone to the Qi-Controlling realm, skipping the cultivation process.
But that didn\'t work for Xiang Beifei; rewards that directly increased cultivation were ineffective on him. This meant that even if he had taken the Qi-Controlling Pill just now, he wouldn\'t have been able to reach the Qi-Controlling realm.
He needed to lay a solid foundation, step by step, through his own cultivation to improve his realm.
Luckily, all system rewards could be viewed as a type of Spiritual Qi Crystal in Xiaohei\'s eyes. Whether it was Qi-Controlling Pills or Soul Condensing Pills, once obtained, Xiaohei could turn them into Spiritual Qi Crystals to help Xiang Beifei.
Each constellation in that book actually needed to be activated with Spiritual Qi Crystals.
Xiaohei would convert the system rewards that Xiang Beifei obtained back into Spiritual Qi Crystals, infuse them into the Spirit Gathering Book, then light up constellations to obtain different abilities.
However, since different constellations required different intensities of Spiritual Energy to activate their abilities, many powerful abilities in the Spirit Gathering Book required a higher level of cultivation to use, so Xiang Beifei had to take it slow.
To Xiang Beifei, it didn\'t matter what others\' rewards were; he saw them all as Spiritual Qi Crystals.
The book provided him with a cultivation technique called the "Two Qi Formula," which is Chaotic Yin and Yang. This technique was extremely complex, mysterious, and profound. Xiang Beifei pondered it for a long time before realizing that cultivation was not something that could be accomplished overnight.
So far, Xiaohei was still better than him.
There are gains and losse s.
Xiang Beifei was in good spirits.
This afternoon was a holiday, and he needed to spend time practicing the "Two Qi Formula."
——
Luhe High School, principal\'s office.
"Strange, is that boy really just an N-level system?"
Li Nanxing sat in his chair, staring at the thunderstone in front of him with a furrowed brow.
This thunderstone was precisely the one that malfunctioned that morning during the test.
Li Nanxing\'s memory of the incident was still fresh because the thunderstone had lit up with a golden-yellow glow indicating a UR-level system, causing him an indescribable excitement!
After all, that was a legendary UR system!
If a student under his supervision had awakened a UR-level system, then their Luhe High School would become famous throughout the entire Jiuzhou education sector!
But most importantly—
His Confucian Sage System\'s tasks were becoming increasingly difficult to complete, and his cultivation had been stagnant for quite some time.
If a UR System Awakener emerged from his school and he properly nurtured this talented student to make a name for themselves, he too would step into a new realm!
Unfortunately, it ended up being just a false alarm.
He had already checked once in the morning, finding no response from the thunderstone and thinking it really was broken, but after the system awakening ceremony, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was amiss, so he took the thunderstone to check it again.
Li Nanxing reached out and touched the thunderstone, his hand shimmering with a strange light, and his Spiritual Power entered the thunderstone.
One minute later.
Zap!
The previously inert thunderstone suddenly sparked with blue electricity!
Electric sparks joyfully danced over the Thunder Stone, crackling pleasantly and crisply.
Li Nanxing\'s expression faltered!
"This Thunder Stone... The Thunder Stone isn\'t broken!"
His heart started pounding again!
Could it be—
Li Nanxing hastily took out a glass jar from the cabinet behind him.
The glass jar was tightly sealed, with blue lightning occasionally flickering inside.
Thunder Stone is a type of high-tech product, with its energy derived from the outer realms\' wilderness.
This kind of lightning is common in the outer realms\' wilderness and is not hard to collect; every school has a substantial reserve of it.
When the Thunder Stone\'s energy used to awaken system talents is depleted, it needs to be recharged with this backup energy.
Li Nanxing inserted the glass jar into the groove of the Thunder Stone and gave it a twist, causing the Thunder Stone to immediately tremble into action!
Whirr!
The Thunder Stone restored to its original state!
"Could it really—really have run out of power?"
Li Nanxing muttered to himself.
This morning, before the awakening ceremony, he made sure to charge all the Thunder Stones; one Thunder Stone was supposed to awaken a hundred students, and there were about fifty people in each class. One Thunder Stone per class—it shouldn\'t have been possible for the Thunder Stone\'s energy to run out under normal circumstances.
Li Nanxing looked at his "Confucian Sage System" interface and said, "Pull up Xiang Beifei\'s data for me, let\'s see his seat number."
The Confucian Sage System stored all student data from Li Nanxing\'s school, including Xiang Beifei\'s enrollment information.
Soon, a line appeared on the system interface: [Xiang Beifei, N-level System Awakener, Class Seat Number 37]
"Was he the 37th to be tested in their class? Then it couldn\'t have been him who depleted the Thunder Stone\'s energy!"
The more Li Nanxing thought about it, the more bewildered he became.
"Could it be that his system level is too powerful, exceeding what the Thunder Stone can handle?"
This thought popped into Li Nanxing\'s mind!
But he quickly dismissed his own guess.
"No, the most powerful talent systems are of the UR level; it should not be due to this reason."
Li Nanxing was very certain of this!
His "Confucian Sage System" was extremely special and could completely discern the system talent level of each student. He reviewed the system values in the "Confucian Sage System" today:
[Student Liu Qianrou, awakened S-level talent, your prestige +1000]
[Student Zhuo Jing, awakened S-level talent, your prestige +1000]
...
[Student Zhang Tian, awakened R-level talent, your prestige +100]
...
[Student Xiang Beifei, awakened N-level talent, your prestige +10]
----
The prestige points Xiang Beifei added to Li Nanxing\'s Confucian Sage System were only 10!
This indicates that Xiang Beifei indeed only awakened to the most ordinary N-level system.
"Could it really just be a misunderstanding?"
Li Nanxing frowned; he couldn\'t figure it out and could only attribute it to some fluke.
In the school he managed, every student who awakened to a system would add prestige points to him. He had worked hard his whole life, becoming a high school principal, all for these prestige points.
The higher the realm, the more prestige points required to advance, and although today he awakened twenty-one S-level talent students and over a hundred R-level ones, it was still far from enough to promote him to the next realm.
The more students the school had, the more system values they would add to him.
However, the Jiuzhou alliance is very strict about education; it is not so easy to expand student enrollment.
Thus, he could only focus on improving student quality, trying his best to cultivate them so they could be successful in the future.
Generally speaking, even if many years have passed since a student graduated, making a name for themselves would still add to his prestige.
Those with S-level potential are naturally extraordinary, but there are also many N-level students who have risen above to become exceptional individuals.
His many years of experience in education had taught him this truth, so he wouldn\'t look down on any student with poor grades, trying to treat everyone equally.
For him, the ideal scenario would be for every student who graduates from Luhe High School to become an elite in the future.
"I really wish he had a UR-level talent!"
Li Nanxing looked at Xiang Beifei\'s data with regret in his heart.
An emergence of a student with UR-level talent would add at least a million prestige points to him, and the system reward would probably be unprecedentedly generous!
