Crimson Overlord

To create one’s own force!

This was the most attractive part of the Heaven Star Academy and the Saint Star Academy. 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

Most people came to the Sky Academy for this precious opportunity as it meant you would have a team you personally picked up to dive into Ruins. Ruins have existed since a long time ago, and inside them, great rewards await the challengers. However, Ruins are hazardous, and it is hard to get in. To increase your survival rate, one would need a team.

The reason why the Heaven Star Academy and the Saint Star Academy were the most powerful and the most sought after was because you can have access to the most powerful Ruins: The Ancient Ruins, once you graduate.

Orpheus was surprised by the system established by the two academies; the credits system was a good system. He did not doubt that it would be hard for a normal student to earn credits.

It was not easy to obtain 20,000 credits to become a perfect graduate, not to mention that the accumulated credits should rank first among all perfect graduates. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

There were many ways to earn credits in the Heaven Star Academy. The most common way was to complete the academy’s daily curriculum and competition. So long as students achieved the cut-off score, they could obtain one credit as a reward. Nonetheless, if they failed, their credits would be deducted doubly. Their performances in the competition would be ranked as well, and the top three students would receive 100 extra credits.

If students passed all of them, they would be able to survive here and could even have fun and relax once in a while. However, if they wanted to accumulate at least 8,000 credits in three years, it was obviously not feasible to just rely on these tasks. Therefore, in addition to the daily curriculum and competition, the Heaven Star Academy also had a large number of internal tasks and missions.

The so-called internal tasks were nothing more than doing odd jobs inside the academy. This type of work included mopping the floor, cleaning the toilet, putting books in the library in order, and so on. In addition, the jobs of the senior female schoolmate who was responsible for the reception of first-year students and the senior male schoolmate who guided them today could also be classified as internal tasks. They could earn one or two credits a day by doing these jobs. Obviously, the really powerful ones would not like this kind of task. They would only have their eyes fixed on missions.

However, even the easiest mission was risky. Corresponding credits would be awarded given the difficulty of these tasks in the Academy. Missions such as hunting down specific Origin beasts, eliminating bandits, and sometimes going into forbidden zones could enable students to earn more credits than ordinary field assignments. Missions of this kind usually awarded students more than 100 credits, and there were even missions that valued hundreds of credits. They were arguably the most rewarding tasks, but also the most dangerous ones.

The danger came not only from these tasks but also from fellow students as well.

Although the Heaven Star Academy and the Saint Star Academy were the two strongest Academies, they shared the same field assignment system. As a result, students from the two academies often performed the same missions. Since there was only one task, the two sides had to compete and even fight for it. The students from the two academies would fight more fiercely for credits than they were fighting enemies.

There were a lot of introductions about credits in the student code of conduct that it took up almost one-third of the contents.

Orpheus always looked calm as he turned the pages.

Of the countless introductions to the tasks, three had the highest credit rewards. The first task was the Heaven Star Academy’s mock battle. It started a few days after class began. Students of each class would fight, not the other classes but among themselves; it was to evaluate them and further guide them. If one got first place, they would receive 500 credits as a reward.

The second was the competition between classes. The reward is 1,000 credits, and lastly, there was the annual competition between the two academies, between the Heaven Star Academy and the Saint Star Academy. The one who got the first place would gain 1,500 credits. However, this sum of credits might be awarded to their own students by either the Heaven Star Academy or the Saint Star Academy.

In the past, the Heaven Star Academy always won, taking first place. Still, rumors have it that two super genius appeared in the Saint Star Academy this time, and with them, the headmaster of the Saint Star Academy was sure to win and wash away their past shame.

Orpheus narrowed his eyes; he had thought his student’s life would be boring if not for her and because he could find a lead to cure his injury completely, he would not be here, but after reading the student code, he knew his student’s life was to bound to be exciting.

Suddenly, he seemed to recall something, and he mumbled something.

”I should contact and ask for another subordinate that will join Amber.”

He thought about his daughter, one of his first creations, and his lips couldn’t help but form a sinister smile; now that he was back, the world was about to remember her name again.

”Oh? Someone is spying on me?” Orpheus mumbled silently; his crimson eyes shone. Indeed, life in the academy would not be boring.
