Gao Wu: I became a saint through daily settlements

"The final winner is Lin Yue," Guo Jingyao announced the result.

The match wasn't as exciting as I'd imagined; it was just a one-sided thrashing.

It was even a little boring.

Whether it was the initial speed and punching power tests or the subsequent one-on-one sparring, Lin Yue led by a wide margin with an absolute advantage, securing the last spot in the elite class without any suspense.

In other words, Lin Yue not only received a reward of 50,000 Blue Star Coins, but also gained a privilege he had always dreamed of: accepting missions.

Being in the elite class is like being a half-martial artist. The school often assigns them tasks to hone their skills and improve their overall abilities.

Moreover, in the elite class, cultivation is quite free, and unless there are special circumstances, it is basically impossible to gather enough people.

Why is this happening?

Because geniuses each have their own unique path of cultivation, conventional group cultivation methods are often difficult to match their pace and talent. This free setting is precisely to allow them to maximize their potential.

This, in turn, gave Lin Yue enough space to move forward steadily without being constrained.

......

Inside the principal's office, the words "Wangdao Call" were prominently displayed on a holographic screen.

"Wangdao? What are those people from the Jiangcheng branch of the Xuantian Martial Hall up to now?" Cai Yue frowned.

Logically speaking, the Xuantian Martial Hall has basically no dealings with its own school.

Moreover, it's not yet time for the Martial Hall's special recruitment.

The Martial Hall's special recruitment is basically held two months before the college entrance examination to recruit outstanding students and allow them to enter the Martial Hall ahead of time.

But now, with seven months left until the college entrance examination, what could possibly happen to the people of the Xuantian Martial Hall?

"Answer the call." Cai Yue moved his finger slightly.

"Principal Cai, it's been a long time."

On the other end of the screen, Wang Dao's voice carried a hint of hearty laughter. As the head of the Jiangcheng branch of the Xuantian Martial Hall, he had always enjoyed considerable prestige in the Jiangcheng martial arts education circle.

"Speak, what is it?" Cai Yue got straight to the point. His relationship with Wang Dao was neither good nor bad.

"I want to ask you for someone."

"Oh?" Cai Yue pondered for a moment.

"Is there a student at your school named Lin Yue?"

"There is indeed someone named Lin Yue."

Logically speaking, Lin Yue is just a student who has just entered the elite class and is not particularly outstanding. What does Wang Dao mean by this?

"It's like this, Principal Cai, this student from your school named Lin Yue has been performing quite well on Battle.net," Wang Dao said. "Even my son, Wang Teng, is no match for him."

Wang Dao made no attempt to conceal his son's defeat. He was always broad-minded and would never hold a grudge over a single victory or defeat. He was also never stingy in acknowledging the strength of the strong.

......

After understanding the whole story, Cai Yue hung up the phone.

"Even Wang Teng is no match for him..."

He knew Lin Yue was strong, but he didn't expect him to be this strong, that even Wang Dao's son was no match for him.

As for the scholarship mentioned earlier, it seems there's no need to hesitate anymore.

Although Lin Yue hasn't reached the Gold rank yet, it seems there's no need to wait any longer.

Now is the best investment opportunity.

Wang Dao's vision was incredibly sharp. The students he took a liking to were basically outstanding individuals who were destined for great things.

"Connect me to Li Yuan's call," Cai Yue instructed the smart terminal.

Beep beep beep, and Li Yuan's image is clearly visible on the screen.

He had just finished his cultivation, his forehead still glistening with fine beads of sweat, and his breathing had not yet fully calmed down.

Since Lin Yue's information is still in the handover process, his current homeroom teacher is still Li Yuan.

"Hey, Principal Cai, what's up?" Li Yuan had just finished practicing his skills when he received a video call from Cai Yue.

"You still have the mind to practice your skills?"

"That's not right! I am a martial artist myself. If I have free time, do you think I would use it to slack off instead of practicing? Speak up, don't delay my cultivation." Li Yuan urged with a smile.

"I've made up my mind. Lin Yue is indeed a promising talent. The school will award him a top scholarship in a few days."

A top-tier scholarship? That's about 80,000 Blue Star Coins.

Awarded to Lin Yue? Li Yuan was even more bewildered.

Logically speaking, although Lin Yue performed exceptionally well this time, it wasn't enough to warrant a special scholarship.

"Yes, Principal, I understand. I will inform Lin Yue in time."

Li Yuan did not protest the principal's decision. Lin Yue was his student, and he was naturally very happy that he could receive the top scholarship.

As for the reasons behind this, the principal naturally had his own logic.

......

When Lin Yue returned home, he immediately told his mother, Gu Yutang, and others that he had been selected for the elite class.

"Son, you really got into the elite class?" Lin's mother paused for a moment.

"Yes, Mom, I've been selected." Lin Yue nodded with a smile, his tone firm. "Once I officially become a martial artist, you won't have to work so hard anymore."

As for the 50,000 Blue Star Coins for being selected for the elite class, Lin Yue hadn't received them yet, so he didn't mention it.

Because only money in your hands is real money.

Lin Yue sat down; three dishes and a soup were already laid out on the table.

It was a collection of very common dishes: shredded pork with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, braised tofu, and a bowl of seaweed and egg drop soup.

Lin's mother stood by the table, took off her apron and draped it over the back of the chair, then sat down.

"Eat up." She picked up a piece of green pepper and shredded pork with her chopsticks and put it in Lin Yue's bowl. "Eat more, you must be exhausted today."

Lin Yue lowered his head and ate.

The green peppers were stir-fried until crisp, the shredded pork was tender, and the cooking time was just right. He took a big bite, then picked up a piece of tofu and stuffed it into his mouth. The tofu was very hot, but he didn't spit it out; he chewed it a couple of times and swallowed it.

Lin's mother sat opposite him, watching him wolf down his food with tender eyes, while she barely touched her own chopsticks, a satisfied smile always on her lips.

Suddenly, Lin Yue's bracelet vibrated.

[Your account ending in 2858 has received 80000.00 Blue Star Coins... The balance in your receiving account is 88482.1 Blue Star Coins.]

Lin Yue was taken aback, then frowned in confusion: the reward for advancing to the elite class was clearly 50,000 Blue Star Coins, so what was the extra 30,000?

Before he could figure it out, Li Yuan sent a message: "Lin Yue, just letting you know, this 80,000 Blue Star Coins is a special scholarship specially approved by the principal. Make the most of this opportunity and keep up the good work."

Special Scholarship?

Lin Yue was stunned for a moment, then a surge of joy welled up inside him. Whatever the reason, the money had indeed been deposited into his account, and that was enough.

This unexpected windfall will not only ease the burden on his family, but also provide him with ample resources for his future cultivation.

Since this 80,000 is a top-tier scholarship, it means that 50,000 has not yet arrived, but it should be soon, Lin Yue thought to himself.

"Thank you for your trouble, Teacher Li," Lin Yue replied.

Lin Yue felt only gratitude towards Li Yuan.
