Silently upgraded, indestructible for 100 million layers!

At 10 a.m. the following morning, Jiang Lan arrived at the admissions department on time, in front of Su Wan's office.

The office door was open, and Su Wan was behind her desk, flipping through documents.

Jiang Lan reached out and knocked on the door frame.

Su Wan looked up at Jiang Lan, put down the documents in her hand, and said:

"Come in and have a seat."

Jiang Lan entered the room and sat on the sofa next to her.

Su Wan skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the point.

"I had a meeting with the school to discuss your situation."

"Let's get to the conclusion first," Su Wan said, looking at Jiang Lan. "The school has adjusted your talent rating, changing it from a special talent to a suspected mutated talent."

Jiang Lan's heart stirred when he heard the words "mutant talent".

Mutant talent? What is that?

Could the system have been compromised?

But he quickly realized what was happening.

Su Wan was referring to the school's speculation, not the facts.

Clearly, she was unaware of the system's existence.

If I knew, I wouldn't have reacted this way.

Jiang Lan relaxed slightly, but remained expressionless, and asked:

What does "mutant talent" mean?

"Ordinary special talents have a limit to their growth," Su Wan said. "This is especially true for defensive talents. Once they reach the Blood Exchange Realm or above, it becomes very difficult to make significant improvements."

"But you're different." She looked at Jiang Lan. "Your growth rate is too fast. Since you entered the school, your strength, speed, and defense have all been increasing at an abnormal rate."

"This situation cannot be explained by ordinary defensive talents. The school tends to believe that your talent has undergone some kind of mutation."

Jiang Lan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

The school attributed his abnormality to a talent mutation, which was actually a good thing for him.

With this explanation, he no longer needed to go to the trouble of making up reasons for his future improvements in strength.

However, the idea of ​​mutated talent isn't entirely far-fetched.

If the school is willing to understand it that way, then let them be.

For him, there are only benefits and no drawbacks.

"What impact will this change in rating have?" Jiang Lan asked.

"Resource allocation will be upgraded again," Su Wan said. "The number of bottles of Tier 3 essence blood per month will be increased from two to five, and the number of times a week we can use the spiritual energy chamber will be increased from once a week to twice a week."

Jiang Lan's eyes lit up.

Reiki Chamber twice a week?

That would double the speed at which he accumulates upgrade progress.

Four hundred bottles of Tier 3 essence blood, which were originally estimated to take two or three months to gather, may be enough in a little over a month now.

Good news, good news.

Seeing Jiang Lan's expression, Su Wan roughly guessed what he was thinking, but she didn't say anything more, and continued:

"I've also made arrangements for my advisor."

"The new instructor is named Wei Chong, from the academy's combat guidance department, and is at the early stage of the Divine Power Realm."

Divine Power Realm.

Jiang Lan was surprised.

According to the realm setting, the standard for punching power in the Divine Power Realm is 130,000 kilograms, and the standard for speed is 2,500 meters per second.

In other words, this new mentor is about three to four times more capable than Lu Yuan.

"Professor Wei Chong's style is a bit different from Professor Lu Yuan's," Su Wan said. "But it's not a big problem; you'll get used to it."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lan raised an eyebrow slightly.

What kind of teacher is he, who has to adapt to?

This guy sounds like he might have a bad temper?

"He'll be waiting for you in the training area at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. You can go by yourself," Su Wan said. "Also, if you have any daily matters to attend to with Lu Yuan, you can still contact him."

Jiang Lan nodded.

After Su Wan finished talking about her mentor, she picked up a document from the table and pushed it in front of Jiang Lan.

"There's one more thing."

Jiang Lan glanced down at the document cover, which had a few lines of text printed on it.

Notice of Recruitment for Joint Clearance Operation in the Northern Wilderness

"Recently, a large number of fourth-tier ferocious beasts have been gathering abnormally in the deep northern wilderness area, and there are even signs of fifth-tier beasts appearing," Su Wan said. "The military has decided to organize a large-scale extermination operation and will recruit special students from several universities to participate."

Jiang Lan flipped through the document; it was very detailed.

Participating institutions: Wuji Academy, Tianshu Academy, and Zhenwu Academy, all three institutions recruiting special students, under the unified command of the military.

They are divided into three tiers based on their strength.

Team C: Team members at the Condensation Realm and below, responsible for clearing the outer perimeter.

Team B: From the early to mid-stages of the Blood Transformation Realm, responsible for clearing out mid-level enemies.

Team A: Late stage of Blood Exchange Realm or above, responsible for deep breakthroughs.

Jiang Lan continued scrolling down.

The operation is conducted in teams of three to five people. Teams can be formed across different universities or within the same university.

Each team is equipped with one communicator and three signal flares. If they encounter a fifth-tier ferocious beast and know they are outmatched, they must retreat and are not allowed to linger in battle.

Those who violate the rules will have all their points cancelled.

"Based on your current assessment of your abilities, you'll be assigned to Team B," Su Wan said. "Departure time is ten days from now; we'll all assemble then."

"The operation is limited to three days. Hunting is based on points, which can be exchanged for essence blood and resources. The specific exchange ratio is in the document."

Jiang Lan glanced at the exchange form.

A third-tier ferocious beast earns one point, a fourth-tier beast earns five points, and a fifth-tier beast earns twenty points.

One cent can be exchanged for a bottle of Tier 3 essence blood, and five cents can be exchanged for a bottle of Tier 4 essence blood.

If he goes all out in three days, accumulating dozens of bottles of Tier 3 essence blood is no problem at all.

Moreover, Team B is responsible for the middle area, with fourth-tier ferocious beasts as their main targets.

A fourth-tier ferocious beast is one in five, and he can now defeat one in less than a minute.

Based on this calculation, the points should be quite high.

"No problem." Jiang Lan closed the file. "I'll participate."

Su Wan nodded.

"Alright, that's all. You can go back now."

Jiang Lan stood up, took the documents, and walked out of the office.

After leaving the admissions office, he took out his phone and sent a message in a group chat with three people.

The military has issued a notice regarding the clearing operation; are you participating?

Zhao Xuan replied almost instantly.

【Of course I'll participate! Why wouldn't I go to such a great opportunity?】

Lin Wan's reply was as concise as ever.

【join. 】

Jiang Lan looked at the message on the screen, smiled, and put her phone away.

We will depart in ten days.

A trip out like this will probably bring in a considerable sum of money.

Gee...

Jiang Lan shook her head and walked towards the training area.

He planned to go see Lu Yuan.

Even though I'm no longer a teacher, I can't just use people when they need them and ignore them when they don't, right?

Lu Yuan was still in the training room, practicing punches alone in front of the sandbag.

Seeing Jiang Lan come in, he stopped what he was doing and wiped his sweat with a towel.

"What's wrong?"

"The new mentor has been decided, his name is Wei Chong. I was just passing by and thought I'd drop by to see you."

Lu Yuan nodded, seemingly unsurprised.

"Wei Chong has a bad temper, so don't talk back to him during training."

Jiang Lan smiled.

"It's okay, I can take a beating."
