Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Class Instructor: This is a Display of Responsibility! (Please follow)

Xiao Ye has a very good worldview, full of positive energy. If Liu Ya were to rate Xiao Ye’s qualities, he would score 60 out of 100 currently.

Liu Ya is curious about Xiao Ye’s sense of responsibility.

Patriotism and protecting the family both reflect a sense of responsibility.

If someone treats things as disposable, only values them when they are useful, and discards them when they are not, they are typically selfish and it is hard to say how responsible they are.

Thus, Liu Ya wants to specifically verify Xiao Ye’s sense of responsibility.

At this moment, Xiao Ye and Nangong Siyan both received a message.

Upon opening it, they saw it was from the class instructor of the Talent Class.

[The instructor for tomorrow’s class will introduce the Talent Ranking, and discuss the rankings. All students must attend.]

Liu Ya leaned closer to Xiao Ye and thoughtfully said, "Usually, the Talent Ranking isn’t introduced so early to freshmen. Your class instructor’s early introduction makes me wonder what their intention is."

Leaning too close, Xiao Ye could clearly feel Liu Ya’s breath and her unique scent.

Looking down, he couldn’t even see his feet.

The so-called inability to see one’s feet is an allusion to captivating beauty.

Liu Ya, Yun Bing, and Nangong Siyan are all such captivating beauties.

Liu Ya noticed Xiao Ye’s gaze and huffed softly.

Time quickly passed, and the next morning arrived.

With ten minutes before class, all the Contractors of the Talent Class had gathered.

Including Xiao Ye, Nangong Siyan, Cheng Bingxi.

The class instructors and Liu Ya, in her Kemonomimi form, were also present.

Perhaps because the Talent Class is exceptional, the class instructors began the lesson before it officially started.

"The Talent Ranking is a ranking list of all the contractor students at Kunpeng Academy, from first to 1200th place."

"Yes, students from freshman to senior years, all contractor students are on the list."

"But the lower the grade, the further back in the Talent Ranking they are."

"Those within the top 300 are mostly seniors, 300 to 600 are mostly juniors... while you freshmen are ranked at the bottom, from 900th to 1200th place."

The young Contractor students were somewhat speechless, discussing among themselves.

"What kind of Talent Ranking is this, with seniors naturally higher in rank due to their age and realm."

"Exactly, the Talent Ranking should be divided into four, one for each grade."

"Yes, or perhaps the Talent Ranking should be based on potential rather than strength and realm!"

These youthful Contractor students were all criticizing the setup of the Talent Ranking.

They had been top talents at their high schools and were unwilling to accept rankings below 900 here.

Xiao Ye shook his head; these students hadn’t experienced the cruelty of the apocalypse.

Hearing the sneers from these talents and seeing Xiao Ye’s gesture, the class instructors’ eyes flashed, and they shouted:

"Silence!"

It was as if a bomb exploded by every student’s ear, producing a deafening sound, and they all quieted down.

The male instructor smiled at Xiao Ye, "Xiao Ye, what do you think about the Talent Ranking?"

Xiao Ye lightly smiled and said:

"I believe the arrangement of the Talent Ranking is very appropriate."

"Oh?" the male instructor’s eyes lit up, "Why is that?"

Other talents turned their gaze toward Xiao Ye, filled with puzzlement. The Talent Ranking was not in their favor; how could they, the chosen ones of the heavens, endure being ranked after 900?

Xiao Ye explained, "It is the apocalypse now, the age of summoned beasts where the strong are revered and the weak are mere ants, the weak become vassal, and only the strong have a say."

"A talent is only a talent if they can grow; otherwise, they are merely a corpse."

"Therefore, arranging the Talent Ranking based on comprehensive strength, I believe, is appropriate."

Silence!

The Contractor students fell silent upon hearing this, all shocked by Xiao Ye’s words.

In the apocalypse, the strong are revered,

Only the strong have a say.

The weak can only become vassals.

This is the truest portrayal of this apocalyptic era!

"Clap clap clap!" Cat-eared Woman Liu Ya led the applause, followed by the prodigies, and suddenly there was thunderous applause among the teachers, rising and falling like tides.

When the applause subsided, both class advisors said, "Well said!"

"So do you still think the ranking of the prodigy board is appropriate?" the class advisor glanced around.

The prodigious Contractors all agreed, "It’s appropriate."

"Yes, the strong are revered. The ranking rules of the prodigy board are very suited to this era."

"It is correct; we were being pedantic."

"Well, worst case, we’ll top the prodigy board again in three years, since we are on the prodigy board, the top students of our freshmen year!"

The class advisor narrowed his eyes slightly and then waved his hand, causing the virtual screen in front of the teachers to display a list.

[Prodigy Board]

[First: Holy Gold Demon Lion, Grandmaster Ten Stars, Senior Year Prodigy, Li Dan, Epic]

[Second: Armor Demon Crocodile, Grandmaster Nine Stars, Senior Year Prodigy: Gu Hai, Zhang Mei]

[Third: Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, Grandmaster Seven Stars, Freshman Year Prodigy: Xiao Ye, Cheng Bingxi]

[...]

[900th: Dark Night Ghost Wolf, Seventh Stage, Freshman Year Prodigy: Bai Junhao, Mo Zhuqing]

[...]

[1200th: Illusion Disc, Third Stage, Freshman Year Prodigy: Hong Wei, Zhang Ya]

After viewing the full ranking, suddenly some prodigious Contractors gasped.

"Hisss! Are that third-place Xiao Ye, and Cheng Bingxi from our class?"

"It seems so, it’s marked as freshman year prodigy."

"Damn, Xiao Ye and the others are already Grandmaster Seven Stars? I’m only third stage!"

"I’m ranked at 900, and I’m only seventh stage too."

At this moment, all students looked towards Xiao Ye and Cheng Bingxi with shock in their eyes, admiration rising in their hearts.

The two class advisors smiled; their main purpose of this class was to set an example for these prideful prodigies.

To let them understand that there are always people better than oneself!

Liu Ya’s beautiful eyes sparkled with a smile; she understood the class advisors’ intentions.

Then the class advisor waved his hand again, and the content on the virtual big screen changed to a scene on a vast grassland.

A Golden Divine Dragon and a Two-tailed White Fox used their Talent Skills to control the Beast Tide, allowing other Summoned Beasts to slay Demon Beasts.

Xiao Ye raised an eyebrow; wasn’t this the scene from his college entrance exam?

The voice of the class advisor rang out:

"Xiao Ye, Nangong Siyan, Cheng Bingxi, the three top scorers of the college entrance exam, with their own power, shifted their base city’s comprehensive exam ranking from last to the ninth in the country."

"There are ten Super Base Cities in the country, and even the low-tier Mang Yuan Base City surpassed one Super Base City!"

The prodigies present widened their eyes.

They hadn’t expected that the top scorers of the college entrance exam came from a low-tier base city!

From last place to the ninth in the country, how many Demon Beasts did they have to kill!

The class advisor continued, "That’s not the main point; the main point is, you see, the three top scorers, using their advantages, helped students from the same base city achieve better results, which allowed the base city to jump to the ninth in the national comprehensive score!"

"This is a display of friendship and responsibility. Students must learn from them!"

The extracted video on the virtual screen played scenes of the Golden Divine Dragon and Two-tailed White Fox controlling the Beast Tide while other examinees slew Demon Beasts.

Cat-eared Woman Liu Ya yelled in surprise from behind everyone:

"Right, this is showing friendship to classmates and a sense of responsibility towards their nurturing base city!"

Xiao Ye looked at her surprisedly, wondering why she yelled so loudly, and why she was so surprised and happy?
