Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Attitude
Ah! This... was wild enough!
Xiang Beifei didn\'t continue watching; he needed to wash his eyes.
Normally, this guy had the image of a tall and strong guy, but now he had made this kind of video!
Beifei felt that he could never look at this guy the same way again.
Moreover, judging by Zhuo Jing\'s demeanor, he didn\'t seem to feel ashamed; on the contrary, he seemed to enjoy it?
People\'s hearts are unpredictable!
Zhuo Jing had awakened the S-level Appreciation System, which couldn\'t be manipulated with fake likes; it had to be calculated based on real people.
This bizarre video, once posted, amassed over 600 likes overnight.
And Zhuo Jing\'s appreciation value was also a type of currency; he used 500 likes to exchange for a Qi-Controlling Pill in his system\'s store.
Thus, Zhuo Jing failed his first mission, but still stepped into the Qi-Controlling realm with his second mission.
For those with S-level systems, completing initial tasks was much simpler than for ordinary people.
This was also why those Awakeners with higher talents had greater achievements in the future.
Xiang Beifei shifted his gaze back; he was tempted to give Zhuo Jing\'s video another like, as that would mean the next reward would probably be shipped his way again.
But Beifei restrained himself.
Because if Xiang Beifei liked the video, Zhuo Jing\'s system would receive a notification.
If a reward disappeared once, it could be said that there was a system error, and Zhuo Jing wouldn\'t associate it with Xiang Beifei.
But if it happened often, Zhuo Jing would definitely notice that each disappearance involved Xiang Beifei, and he would surely become suspicious.
You don\'t always have to fleece the same sheep.
Give other sheep some chances.
Or—
Wait for another season to fleece.
Xiang Beifei shifted his focus back; he was communicating with Xiaohei, while on the side, Kong Xiuwen had already started snoring on the desk, his snoring loud due to lack of sleep from staying up late the previous night.
The class bell rang, and the homeroom teacher, Yang Hua, walked into the classroom, which quickly quieted down.
With this silence, Kong Xiuwen\'s snoring became quite jarring.
Yang Hua frowned, a flash of anger in his eyes; someone dared to sleep during his class!
This was a perfect opportunity for criticism!
However, when his gaze landed on Kong Xiuwen, a strange expression flickered across his eyes.
At this moment, everyone in the class was looking at Kong Xiuwen, some gloating to see how the homeroom teacher would criticize him.
Xiang Beifei nudged Kong Xiuwen with his elbow, quietly reminding him that class had started.
Kong Xiuwen groggily opened his eyes, saw the homeroom teacher, startled, and quickly straightened up.
But what Yang Hua said next surprised everyone—
"Kong Xiuwen, you must be very tired from last night? It\'s fine, if you feel tired, you can sleep a bit more during class, no big deal."
Yang Hua said to Kong Xiuwen with care.
Kong Xiuwen\'s mouth fell open, his eyes almost popping out, thinking he had heard wrong.
The homeroom teacher, actually allowing him to sleep in his own class?
The other students also looked envious and jealous.
Actually, they probably also understood why the homeroom teacher\'s attitude changed so quickly.
Kong Xiuwen\'s grades were poor, but he was an S-rank System Awakener!
Kong Xiuwen and Xiang Beifei had always been at the bottom of their class, with extremely poor academic performance. Yang Hua often criticized them to increase his own system\'s value.
Just Xiang Beifei and Kong Xiuwen alone had added who knows how many prestige points to Yang Hua.
But today, Yang Hua found Kong Xiuwen utterly pleasing to the eye.
The reason was nothing else but that yesterday Kong Xiuwen had awakened an S-rank system, which had increased his prestige value by 500 points!
An increase of 500 points at once was much faster than gaining one point at a time through criticism!
The \'R-rank Master Dao System\' allowed teachers to increase their prestige value not just through criticizing students but also when students felt grateful or admired him.
However, Yang Hua found that relying on gratitude and admiration to increase prestige value was too slow, so he preferred to establish his authority through criticism.
But now facing S-rank system awakener Kong Xiuwen, he couldn\'t criticize him anymore.
An S-rank System Awakener was bound to achieve great things in the future.
Yang Hua himself was merely an R-rank System Awakener. It was only a matter of time before Kong Xiuwen surpassed him.
Therefore, Yang Hua needed to change his tactics; he planned to make Kong Xiuwen feel grateful to him.
Yang Hua continued to speak to Kong Xiuwen, "Kong Xiuwen, you are now an S-rank System Awakener, you should listen to the lessons carefully. I will rearrange a seat for you. How about you sit next to Zhuo Jing?"
Yang Hua was very approachable as he took care of Kong Xiuwen.
Kong Xiuwen was stunned. His homeroom teacher, who criticized him daily, was suddenly so concerned about him, making him feel very uneasy.
"No... no need," Kong Xiuwen hurriedly said.
He had always disliked Zhuo Jing\'s style. This guy often mocked him and Xiang Beifei; they simply didn\'t get along.
"How can that be? Sitting together with Xiang Beifei will severely hold you back. You should sit with Zhuo Jing; that way, you can push each other to improve. Both of you have S-rank talents and can share your insights."
Yang Hua said thoughtfully, "You have a boundless future ahead, and you must not be influenced by Xiang Beifei. I need to take responsibility for you guys! He\'s hopeless, not at all in your league."
Just thinking of Xiang Beifei made Yang Hua angry!
His own system had malfunctioned yesterday, but aside from that, he had thought Xiang Beifei was a hidden talent about to awaken the incredibly rare UR System. He had even prepared to increase his prestige value by hundreds of thousands of points.
But it had all turned out to be a false hope.
This made him very dissatisfied!
If Xiang Beifei had awakened the UR System, he definitely would have welcomed him with open arms, and he wouldn\'t have said a word even if Xiang Beifei skipped classes.
But Xiang Beifei was just an N-rank!
Noticing something off about Xiang Beifei\'s hair, Yang Hua exclaimed, "Xiang Beifei, I told you to get a haircut yesterday. Why haven\'t you done it yet?"
[You have criticized Xiang Beifei, Teacher Prestige Value +1]
Xiang Beifei touched his hair.
Everyone had just awakened their systems yesterday; how could he remember that?
Xiang Beifei listened indifferently to Yang Hua\'s words, said nothing, and just quietly stared at Yang Hua\'s system interface—
[Mission Target: Reach 15000 teacher prestige value, exchangeable for one Qi and Blood Pill]
[Remark: Qi and Blood Pill, temporarily enhances one\'s strength to combat individuals one minor stage higher]
"Now that\'s a nice item, free shipping too,"
Xiang Beifei muttered to himself.
