You said you'd fail to awaken your powers, but you're actually a master of top-tier abilit

"It's nothing really. Not every student at Magic Ocean University has such nice dormitories."

"Apart from the dormitories for you specially admitted students, the dormitories for other regular students at Magic Ocean University are half the size of those for you specially admitted students."

Liu Zhiming, who was standing nearby, explained with a smile after hearing Su Ming's exclamation.

Upon hearing Liu Zhiming's explanation, Su Ming shook his head and smiled helplessly.

I just feel that Liu Zhiming is too much like Versailles.

Although the Magic Sea University only admits one thousand students each year, that's four thousand students over four years.

If each student were allocated a 500-square-meter detached villa as a dormitory, the student dormitory alone would require two million square meters of land.

Only a university like Magic Ocean University, which occupies an island with an area of ​​over 20 square kilometers, can afford to build so many luxurious villas for its students to live in.

"Su Ming, after the start of the semester, Magic Sea University will have master-level lecturers teaching various martial arts courses every day, and all students can freely choose the courses they want to take."

"Of course, you can also skip classes, take on missions, earn credits, exchange them for various martial arts and techniques from the school, or go to the Tower of Heaven to cultivate. In short, students at Demon Sea University are very free."

"However, while students at Magic Sea University enjoy freedom, everything at Magic Sea University requires credits. Without credits, nothing is possible. Every student who wants to continue studying at Magic Sea University has to go on missions to earn credits. This is also a way for the school to motivate its students."

"However, given the amount of credits the school is awarding you, you don't need to worry about credits. You can continue to attend lectures by the school's master-level teachers. Of course, you just need to make sure you don't miss the freshman competition a month from now."

"Alright, my task is complete. If you have any questions, you can ask the dorm's smart home assistant once you're in the dorm. It will answer your questions."

After saying that, Liu Zhiming nodded to Su Ming and then turned to leave.

After Liu Zhiming left, Su Ming quickly entered his detached villa and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

"Welcome home, homeowner. I am your smart home assistant. Please let me know if you need anything."

As soon as Su Ming sat down on the sofa, a beautiful woman appeared in front of him in a holographic projection and said respectfully.

"Hmm, find out for me how many credits are needed to train in the Tower of Babel for one day."

Seeing this, Su Ming directly asked the question he most wanted to know.

"Yes, Master."

"The credits consumed per day of training in the Tower of Babel vary depending on the level. The first level of the Tower of Babel consumes 5 credits per day, the second level consumes 10 credits per day, and so on up to the ninety-ninth level, which consumes 2000 credits per day."

Soon, the AI ​​assistant listed the consumption costs for each level of the Tower of Heavenly Cultivation.

"It takes 2000 credits to cultivate in the 99th Heavenly Cultivation Tower for a day. The credits I get as a reward every year are only enough for two days of cultivation. Such a consumption is really not small."

Looking at the list of credits required for the Tower of Heaven cultivation compiled by the smart home system, Su Ming was secretly astonished.

"List all the various martial arts techniques and skills treasured by the Demon Sea University, from highest to lowest level."

After venting his frustrations, Su Ming spoke to the smart home assistant.

"Yes, Master."

Upon hearing Su Ming's command, the AI ​​assistant nodded in response. The next moment, a virtual screen appeared in front of Su Ming, displaying various martial arts techniques from the Demon Sea University.

[Primal Visualization Technique: S-Rank Meditation Method: Credits Exchangeable: 25000]

[Starry Sky Body Forging Technique: S-Rank Body Forging Method, Exchange Credits: 22000]

[Ninefold Thunder Blade: S-rank martial art, exchangeable for 20000 credits]

……

[Overlord Spear: C-rank martial art, exchangeable for 20 credits]

"Wow~~ There are so many S-rank martial arts and techniques!"

"The foundation of Magic Sea University is indeed profound!"

"However, the credits required to exchange for these S-level cultivation techniques and martial arts are too many. Even with my current treatment, after four years, the credits I've been awarded are only enough to exchange for one S-level martial arts technique, not even enough for an S-level meditation method or body tempering method."

Su Ming kept scrolling down the various martial arts techniques on the screen. Looking at the dazzling array of techniques, even he couldn't help but gasp.

"My blood and qi are growing very fast with the help of the A-level body tempering technique, the Hundred Refinements Golden Body Technique. However, my mental strength is far less than my blood and qi."

"What I need most right now is to acquire a decent meditation technique. With my current 3,000 credits, I can forget about S-rank meditation techniques for now, but I can try to get an A-rank one."

"This Grade A meditation method, 'Tianluo Diagram,' is perfect!"

After a moment's thought, Su Ming decided to go all in with the 3000 credits he currently possessed to purchase the A-level meditation technique, "Tianluo Diagram".

"Butler, I want to purchase the Grade A meditation technique, the Tianluo Diagram."

After making the decision, Su Ming spoke to the smart assistant.

"Master, purchasing the Tianluo Diagram requires 3000 credits. Do you wish to spend 3000 credits to purchase the Tianluo Diagram?"

Upon hearing this, the smart assistant inquired again, seeking confirmation from Su Ming.

"Yes." Su Ming nodded.

"Yes, Master. The Tianlu Map has been ordered, consuming 3,000 credits. Your current credit balance is 0."

With Su Ming's confirmation, the smart home assistant nodded and then displayed a line of small text above.

"Show me what missions are available at Magic Ocean University recently. I need to earn credits."

After squandering all his credits, Su Ming immediately spoke to the smart assistant.

Magic Ocean University only recognizes academic credits. Without credits, you can't do anything, and even eating at Magic Ocean University becomes a problem.

Since he currently has zero credits, he naturally needs to complete some tasks first to earn credits before making any other plans.

[Assisting instructors in maintaining training facilities: 0.5 credits awarded]

[Hunting the heart of a Tier 4 Beginner Beast, Thunder Leopard: Reward 5 Credits]

Collect three Magic Marrow Crystals: 3 Academic Credits

[Assist the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics in capturing the fourth-tier peak fallen martial artist 'Scorpion': Reward: 20 credits]

……

"It seems that these credits are really hard to earn. No wonder I only got 500 credits when I single-handedly stopped the beast tide and saved more than a thousand people on my way to school."

"I estimate that even if an ordinary student worked themselves to the bone for a month, it would only be enough for one day of cultivation inside the Tower of Heaven."

After reviewing the various missions and their corresponding credit rewards at Magic Sea University, Su Ming wore a helpless smile and couldn't help but sigh.

Even killing a Tier 4 low-level ferocious beast only earns 5 credits. To accumulate enough credits for a day's training on the 99th floor of the Tower of Heaven, one must accept 400 missions to kill Tier 4 ferocious beasts.

Putting aside the difficulty, it's unknown how long it would take to complete these four hundred hunting missions.

"Ding-dong—"

Just as Su Ming was feeling sentimental, a doorbell rang.
