When system cheat becomes rampant!

Xiang Beifei was walking down the stairs, unaware of what had happened in the principal's office, when suddenly Xiaohei began to bark happily.

He turned his head and was astonished to find Xiaohei holding a light blue medicinal pill, joyfully playing with it.

The pill was entirely blue, with many profound patterns on it, and emitted a refreshing medicinal fragrance. Just a slight sniff made one feel completely revitalized.

A deep and terrifying aura seemed to swirl around the pill.

"Where did this come from?"

Xiang Beifei looked at the blue pill in amazement; it was the most potent pill he had ever seen!

Soon, he suddenly remembered—God Refining Pill!

It was actually a God Refining Pill!

He had seen it in Principal Li Nanxing's system interface!

"Xiaohei, did you take the principal's God Refining Pill?" Xiang Beifei said in surprise.

"Woof woof woof!"

Xiaohei, holding the pill, happily rubbed and cuddled it.

"Are you saying that the Spiritual Qi Crystal contained in this pill can light up all the constellations from mid-Qi-Controlling to mid-Meridian Opening?"

"Woof woof woof!"

"With this pill, could I possibly step into the Meridian Opening period within half a year?"

Xiang Beifei was truly shocked!

This God Refining Pill actually had such a terrifying power?

Within half a year, to step into the Meridian Opening period!

And to light up six constellations, granting him six additional abilities!

To be honest, even Xiang Beifei was greatly astonished after hearing this.

It was impossible not to be moved; such a thing could save him from taking so many detours!

As long as he could reach the Meridian Opening period, what would the assessments at Liangzhou University count for? Those so-called geniuses from elite universities would be nothing compared to him!

Xiang Beifei felt his breathing become a bit rapid.

But he remained silent, striving to suppress those emotions.

After a long while, he spoke, "Xiaohei, return it."

"Woof?"

Xiaohei looked at Xiang Beifei, puzzled.

"The principal is a person of high virtue and respect; he deserves our respect. We don't take his belongings," Xiang Beifei said.

Even though he knew he had increased Principal Li Nanxing's system value by 100,000 that day, and getting the pill was a bit of help from him, he still resisted the enormous temptation brought by the God Refining Pill.

This pill, which took nearly ten years to save up, was vitally important to the principal.

"Woof..."

Xiaohei whined softly.

"I know it's a pity, but there are many ways to become stronger; this is not the only one," Xiang Beifei said, petting Xiaohei's head.

For those who liked to trouble him, Xiang Beifei would show no mercy, regardless of how much time they had spent; he would not even furrow his brow.

For those willing to help him, Xiang Beifei would respect them and even help them complete system tasks for free.

He was clear about his debts and grudges—this was his principle.

"Woof."

Xiaohei reluctantly licked the God Refining Pill, then with a flick of his tail, tossed it away.

The God Refining Pill flashed a blue light as it flew through the air, disappearing from sight.

---

Li Nanxing was bewildered, feeling the world spinning around him, as if drained of all strength. He sat on the chair, hands on his forehead, his head in chaos.

"How could it be gone... how could it be gone..."

He felt a sense of despair, experiencing for the first time how life could be so devastating.

A decade of hard work ruined in an instant, it was nearly the end of him.

He didn't even know what he had been working towards these past ten years.

Thump! Thump!

Some sound bounced twice on the table, emitting a dull thud.

Li Nanxing looked up listlessly and glanced at the table.

Immediately after, he saw the blue pill.

It lay there quietly, radiating a powerful and profound aura.

Li Nanxing suddenly stood up from the chair!

He looked incredulously at the God Refining Pill that had appeared out of nowhere, even doubting his own eyes, wondering if it was a hallucination born from desperation.

"Is this an illusion?"

Li Nanxing reached out his trembling, aged hand and touched the God Refining Pill on the table.

It wasn't an illusion!

It was a real pill!

Life returned to his dim eyes.

He then grabbed the God Refining Pill!

Dense and profound, smooth as jade.

"It's the God Refining Pill! The God Refining Pill!"

Li Nanxing clung tightly to the pill that had been lost and now found, holding it so firmly as if afraid it would disappear again.

He took a deep breath, overcome with emotion!

Life's dramatic fluctuations occurred within such a fleeting moment.

"Thank goodness it's still here! Thank goodness it's still here! Thank goodness it's still here..."

He didn't even think about where the God Refining Pill had gone just now; just having it in hand was a stroke of immense good fortune for him! Without delay, he planned to find a place to refine the pill immediately and ensure no further mishaps would occur!

——

Xiang Beifei stood around the corner, looking through the glass window at Li Nanxing's ecstatic countenance.

It turned out that even the usually refined and gentle principal could have such a moment of discomposure.

He felt somewhat apologetic as he hadn't communicated well with Xiaohei; the little creature thought the item would benefit him greatly, so it took the principal's belongings, nearly causing the principal to collapse.

Regardless, it had ultimately been returned.

He himself still needed to grow stronger step by step through cultivation.

He didn't feel like he had lost anything, but instead calmly turned and went downstairs.

Xiang Qingde and Lu Zhiwei were waiting for him, while Kong Xiuwen and his son had already gone home to prepare for the evening's celebratory banquet, leaving a message for them to join without fail.

The school was still surrounded by a large crowd, and Xiang Beifei didn't want to stay any longer, so he left with them.

"Beifei, have you decided which university to apply for?" Lu Zhiwei asked.

"Don't worry, with such scores, even if I don't get into an elite university, the other universities will still be vying for me," Xiang Qingde said happily.

Xiang Beifei said, "I still want to try for Liangzhou University."

Xiang Qingde was stunned for a moment.

In the past few days, feeling guilty for being an incompetent parent, he had rushed to learn about the college entrance examination and asked around; he knew that eight of the nine elite universities did not admit N-level Awakeners.

The words of Zhuo Jing had also made it very clear that Liangzhou University, although it did admit N-level students, had a very high threshold!

Now that Xiang Beifei's scores met the requirements, he still needed to pass the entrance assessment; only if the assesment was passed could he attend, and if he failed, he would still be eliminated.

But Xiang Qingde earnestly said, "Great! Whatever you decide to do, Grandpa will support you!"

Xiang Qingde, willing to humble himself before others for the sake of a retake, naturally would also unconditionally support his grandson's choice, regardless of the cost; he was determined to help his grandson move forward.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhiwei's eyes lit up!

In past years, N-level candidates rarely applied for Liangzhou University because the pass rate was so low that many high-scoring N-level candidates retreated understanding the difficulty.

But Xiang Beifei was different!

This guy, usually dopey and unconcerned with competing with others, was one of those who never showed his hand unless it turned out to be astounding!

Perhaps he really could create a miracle!

"Then I'll wait for you at Liangzhou University!"

Lu Zhiwei couldn't wait for Xiang Beifei to report to Liangzhou University in September; then she would be his senior. She looked forward to using various opportunities to rub shoulders with him and learn his reasoning abilities.
