Poor Xi Xi

Chapter 53 Lan Qi's Great Harvesting Technique

    Lan Qi's footsteps were like drifting breezes, his figure appearing blurred in the dim corridor light, as if an emissary walking from the dark depths of the hallway.

    Unlike most demon students, Lan Qi's demonic features were all white, making him seem elegant and harmless, like a special demon of the healing or support type.

    However, in the eyes of the lucky demon student Batcheer, who had been caught by Lan Qi and Hyberian, this pure white radiance in purgatory was nothing but endless strangeness and incongruity.

    Because as a victim, Batcheer knew full well what crazy and wicked things this white demon had done in the examination hall earlier!

    "Why are you running?"

    Lan Qi stood beside the demon student Batcheer, his friendly voice like a gentle breeze skimming across the lake, yet carrying a sense of seriousness that could not be shaken.

    You have the nerve to ask me?

    The moment Batcheer heard Lan Qi's question, sparks of anger flashed uncontrollably in his eyes, his teeth making a faint creaking sound from clenching too tightly!

    If it weren't for this bastard, he could have spent two hours taking a peaceful exam and earned at least one credit coin!

    But now, he needed to be on this dangerous corridor, facing the threat of death at any moment.

    However, the anger that was about to surge in Batcheer's heart was instantly extinguished by fear and the desire to survive.

    To survive, he, a mere Second Order, absolutely could not provoke these two beings before him, no matter how much backbone he had.

    This clarity and desire to survive were precisely why he was able to live until now, and even escape from under the noses of the two demon examiners.

    "If you don't have credit coins, you'll be immediately obliterated if the head teacher finds you in the corridor during class!"

    Batcheer didn't have time to explain too much, he just looked around the corridor in a panic, saying to Lan Qi, as if begging him to let him go quickly so he could find a classroom.

    Lan Qi looked at Batcheer's panicked appearance, and although he didn't fully understand the answer, he roughly understood why other demon students would rather run into a classroom with a life-threatening danger than linger in the corridor.

    "Do you want this?"

    Lan Qi took out a few coins that looked like they were made of black gold from his pocket, waved them in front of Batcheer, and asked.

    The coins in his hand were about half an inch in diameter, well-made and heavy, with a weighty feel.

    The deep black color could reflect a kind of crimson light in the dim light of the corridor, like magma in purgatory, and the demon academy emblem in the center of the coin was surrounded by a circle of tight runes, written in demonic magical script, making it impossible to be counterfeited.

    Lan Qi estimated that this should be the credit coin that Batcheer was talking about, but it was not suitable to directly ask him "is it?", so he changed the way he asked.

    "?!"

    Batcheer looked at Lan Qi in disbelief, not knowing why Lan Qi had so many credit coins!

    But in the end, he nodded vigorously.

    Lan Qi understood from Batcheer's reaction.

    These coins were exactly what they had looted from the corpses of the demon students when they left the demon examination hall earlier, most of which were the result of the stealthy assassin Hyberian transforming into a thief and efficiently looting the dead.

    "Explain all the school information you know to me, and I'll give you a credit coin, how about this deal?"

    Lan Qi first threw a credit coin to Hyberian to ensure her safety, and then raised another one, looking at Batcheer through the light it reflected, and asked.

    "Of, of course I can!"

    Batcheer nodded quickly, accepting the deal.

    Demon deals are generally quite reliable, and this guy named Batcheer also has a bit of aristocratic temperament, I am afraid he is a noble child from some family in the demon world in this era. For demons, transactions are important for maintaining family reputation.

    "Start talking, but to save time, start with the important rules first, and skip the places I tell you to skip."

    Lan Qi tossed the credit coin he promised to Batcheer with his thumb and said.

    In order not to let Batcheer realize that he knew nothing about the rules of this school, Lan Qi chose to let Batcheer confess voluntarily.

    "Okay."

    Batcheer stared at the credit coin, worried that the head teacher would come at any time, and quickly opened his mouth,

    "Successfully passing the classroom courses will earn you credit coins. At other times, you need to consume a lot of credit coins to survive in this school."

    "Classrooms have various teaching methods and exam-like modes. They are all places where you need to risk your life to study. Functional areas, similar to libraries, restaurants, and infirmaries, generally do not have any dangers, but you need to spend credit coins."

    "There are only 12 hours of school operation time every night, with 5 two-hour classes and 4 thirty-minute breaks. Only during those 30-minute breaks will the classroom corridors connect with the functional area corridors. Every morning at 6 o'clock, you need to pay at least 5 credit coins to the school and get 5 graduation credits. Accumulating 4800 graduation credits will allow you to successfully graduate from this Purgatory Corridor Academy and obtain a Demon Realm diploma..."

    Lan Qi nodded frequently while listening to Batcheer's words.

    He now roughly understood the basic operating rules of this school.

    Although the Purgatory Corridor Academy looks entirely indoors, it is actually connected by countless complex corridors, and it will change at a fixed time, making it difficult even for old students to quickly find the place they want to go.

    And the doors of the classrooms where credit coins can be obtained will have a different number of imprint patterns on them to show the current difficulty of the classroom. The lowest is 1 and the highest is 3. The difficulty is also the number of credit coins that can be obtained at least after passing.

    For example, the previous demon examination hall had a difficulty of 1, so after passing, you will be guaranteed to get 1 credit coin. If you have excellent grades, you may also get other extra rewards.

    "For example, although the demon examination hall has a passing score of 50, if someone can score an incredible high score of 90, there will be other rewards."

    Batcheer continued to say without daring to stop.

    As for the extremely exaggerated 100 points, Batcheer could hardly imagine what hidden rewards that situation would trigger, after all, no student had ever done it.

    Like Lan Qi, who directly dismantled the examination hall, even if he passed, he would not be able to get credit coins normally from the demon teacher.

    However, Batcheer thought about it carefully, and he instantly understood where Lan Qi got these stolen goods!

    This nascent behavior of exploding students for coins is actually much, much, much faster at making money than honestly taking exams!

    "How do you feel about difficulty 2 and difficulty 3 classrooms?"

    Lan Qi took the initiative to interrupt Batcheer's words for the first time and asked.

    He calculated in his mind that if he chose difficulty 1 classrooms for all five classes, without considering extra rewards, he would only be able to get 5 credit coins at most.

    After paying the 5 coins that must be paid every day, he would have to start working hard to complete all five classes from scratch the next day.

    Batcheer was obviously the kind of wage slave student who had almost no surplus.

    Only those demon students who were skilled and daring enough to choose difficulty 2 classrooms could stably obtain more than 5 credit coins a day, and would have a surplus. They would not necessarily have to complete all five classes, and could even go to the functional area to spend some money.
