The end of the month was approaching. The festive atmosphere of the New Year had quietly disappeared from the four major academies more than ten days ago.
As long as one was still in Beacon Academy, no one dared to ignore the monthly academic assessment. Poor results in the monthly assessment would not only affect the progress of their studies, but also deduct a large amount of their GPA.
In school, GPA was life. If you didn't have enough GPA, you would be expelled from school. No one was willing to leave after entering a Chronometer Tower Alliance University and have to compete with their junior brothers and sisters again.
Moreover, most of the students here were the only seedlings of their respective families. Dropping out was unacceptable to them and their families.
Therefore, during the week of the monthly assessment, the four major academies were filled with a somber atmosphere. As for the previous chaos, the two missing students and the nine dead teachers had long been drowned in the black fog.
This world would erect tombstones for the dead, but it would not be overly sentimental.
The snow-covered island, which was always dark, was also covered in a layer of frost. It looked slightly less cold and gloomy.
Li Xiang walked out of the Beacon Academy building, carrying a black box in his hand. His expression was not very good.
Last week, he had received a broken ancient potion from Dean Lei Lin. After consuming it, the magic circuit in his internal organs also showed signs of materialization. As for the improvement of his physique, due to the broken nature of the potion, it was almost negligible.
In addition, he had also successfully cultivated a new magic spell, [Support- Increase Perception]. From then on, Li Xiang's gun attack range had expanded. Although he was not at the level of a terrifying sniper like Ming Xu, he was at the top of the list of ordinary gun users.
After receiving so many benefits from the school, he was also mentally prepared for a bigger test. However, he did not expect —
These old guys would start from the beginning of the monthly assessment.
This time, the content of the basic and professional courses exams was extremely difficult. The students were all over the place, but they did not know that Li Xiang, the freshman representative, had received an even more difficult exam paper.
Even though he had studied tirelessly for a month, coupled with the powerful analysis of the mechanical roulette, Li Xiang still paid a lot of GPA to barely pass the exam!
However, he had to admit that these teachers of Beacon Academy who were constantly studying were indeed amazing!
There was not a single bit of content that exceeded the scope of the syllabus. Every aspect was within the scope of the syllabus.
Even under such conditions, Li Xiang was unable to pass a few of his subjects.
The few good courses were all about the theory of mechanical roulette analysis. As for the others …
The professors of Beacon Academy had given him a good lesson on what it meant to have endless knowledge.
In the first month, the terrifying results of all the top grades were only due to the average difficulty of the exams. Obviously, both the school and the board of directors had higher expectations and requirements for Li Xiang.
Naturally, Ise Shizuko was also unlucky. After entering the school, she had scrimped and saved. She relied on various means to accumulate her GPA, but now it was all gone. If Li Xiang hadn't dodged quickly, she would have gritted her teeth and rushed into his room to interrogate him.
Why did he have to suffer with him?
In any case, he had finally passed the monthly exam. It was better than the batch of students he saw leaving dejectedly on the tarmac in the early morning.
Li Xiang also finally understood why his school was always at the bottom of the Chronometer Tower Consortium's rankings, but it was like a centipede that would never fall down.
Perhaps it was because of the White King, or because the Dead Sea had scared off many people. Even with the glorious glory of the Chronometer Tower Consortium University, not many people were willing to choose Beacon Academy in the Subcontinent after the final trial.
At least, it was the same as his year. Very few of the 240 outstanding people who could participate in the final ranking competition chose this school.
For a long time, the students of this school were similar to the countless first-rate universities below. It did not gather the real top young people of the seven continents. On the contrary, the other three non-player schools were getting stronger and stronger. They attracted a large number of outstanding young people who did not walk the path of players.
If Beacon Academy did not rely on such iron-blooded and excellent education, how could they cultivate this batch of students who were not the best to be on par with the other seventeen universities?
The only thing that made people sigh was that even if the teachers were strong and the education was excellent, it was still difficult to make up for the initial talent gap.
Even if they were lucky enough to pass the monthly exam, the new students were still worried when they thought about facing their peers who were even more outstanding in the School Championship Competition in October.
Li Xiang walked briskly toward the Mission Hall. This mysterious building that was originally forbidden to first-year students was now open to him as an exception.
He was here today to accept a special mission that Dean Lei Lin had instructed him to do when he went to the border tomorrow.
During the monthly exam, the Mission Hall was still filled with people.
The most advanced information was gathered here. Often, one could get a glimpse of the situation at the border and the seven continents from the mission information.
Apart from fourth-year students, students from the other two grades were generally not allowed to accept missions from the seven continents. They could only move around the border and the Dead Sea.
All kinds of oil paintings on the four walls were dazzling.
They were all ordinary missions that were not very meaningful. They were also opportunities for students who needed GPA to win points with their lives.
However, after looking at the oil paintings for a while, Li Xiang still found some clues.
Recently, the number of mutants near City 0010 at the border had increased abnormally. Wave after wave of attacks had lasted for half a month without stopping. As a result, they had no choice but to issue an assistance mission in school and invite students to fight the enemy together.
It was not just City 0010. If one looked carefully, they would find similar situations at many borders. There was no pattern to the mutant tide, but it usually followed the disaster tide at the Great Wall of Calamity.
This was not a good sign. It was unknown if it was related to the appearance of the Death Omen Star.
Li Xiang had a deeper concern. He hoped that it was not a problem at the Great Wall of Calamity or at the border.
He was not familiar with the Night King who guarded the Great Wall of Calamity, but the Border Lord was his biggest backer, the Polar Night.
If there was a problem at the border …
Li Xiang shook his head and did not think about it. Perhaps it was just a simple mutant tide?
He walked to the front desk. The beautiful bunny girl stuck out her tongue and handed him a private letter. It was left for him by Dean Lei Lin. At the same time, it came with a kiss from the bunny girl and her contact information on the communication device.
Li Xiang could only smile and wave his hand. The bunny girl worked in the mission hall, which meant that she had a high desire for GPA. The school did not restrict relationships between men and women. Magic users rarely fell in love, but they still had their physiological needs.
Therefore, secret transactions based on this foundation had always been happening in the black market.
The bunny girl was not discouraged. She blew him another kiss and then tapped the communication device at her waist, asking him to add her as a friend.
Li Xiang nodded and opened the letter. He was gradually influenced by the words on it. So it was about this …
