Chapter 92: Powerhouses Take Priority

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhou Yun led the two of them in a large circle, introducing a few school buildings along the way.

He only brought the two of them to the reception after about half an hour.

Even so, they did not explore the more insignificant places in the school. A 30 thousand mu 1school was not that quickly toured.

When they reached the reception, the same people Fang Ping had met last time were there.

As the new students’ registration and dormitory assignments were here, there were many people at the registration counter this time.

Not just one person was manning it. More than ten registration counters were at work.

The woman Fang Ping had encountered last time was also busy registering students and assigning them keys.

At that moment, the woman just finished registering someone and lifted her head.

The woman spotted Fang Ping immediately and greeted him with a smile. “Student Fang Ping, come over here!”

Zhou Yun paused for a moment, then glanced at Fang Ping. “You’re familiar with someone here?”

“I came early to school. It was this auntie who helped arrange for me to stay at the school’s hotel last time.”

“Oh. It’s good you know someone, so you don’t have to line up.”

Zhou Yun was also pleased with this and brought Fang Ping and Guo Sheng over there.

“Teacher, don’t they have to line up? It should be my turn, shouldn’t it?”

As Fang Ping and the others walked over, a new student in front of the woman could not stop himself from asking.

The woman looked at the senior student next to him. The boy in charge of leading him here smiled and said, “138cal.”

The woman noted that and said lightly, “As written in the school rules, powerhouses take priority!”

“Huh?”

The new student was stunned. He had not expected such an answer.

The woman did not pay attention to him any longer. It was true that MCMAU’s students were prodigies. Someone with a Vitality of 138cal would be considered a genius among geniuses in a regular martial arts university.

However, in Magic City Martial Arts University, there were even a bunch of student martial artists, so who cared about these people?

Not everyone needed to be so courteous to them and get in their good books, so what if these students were not satisfied?

This was not a hoax. It really was their school’s rule!

Powerhouses take priority!

If one was unhappy about it, then they should work hard to increase their Vitality and break through the ranks!

If he really was going to fuss over this with a receptionist, this type of person would not go very far anyway, so the woman did not bother with this type of student.

She did not give a damn what this new student was feeling. When Fang Ping came over, the woman smiled broadly. “Student Fang Ping, was your stay at the hotel alright? If you’re not satisfied, we accept complaints here.”

“Thanks, Auntie. My stay was so satisfying, I didn’t want to leave.”

“That’s good.”

The woman smiled once again and said, “I helped you look already. The dorm you were assigned is not bad, so I didn’t change it.”

While she said this, she did not do what she did with others, which was check their IDs and admission notices, and entered his information straight into the computer instead.

Very quickly, the woman passed him a key and said, “New Students Area One, number 86.”

Fang Ping swiftly took the key but was a little puzzled. Magic City Martial Arts University’s dormitory assignment was a little different from what he had imagined.

Zhou Yun, who had been standing at the side, was envious. “You were assigned straight to Area One. I remember when I first arrived last year, I was assigned to Area Three at the beginning…”

The woman pursed her lips. “You’re already an old student, yet you still need me to teach you?

“The stronger you are, the better you’re treated. Shouldn’t Student Fang Ping be assigned to Area One?”

Zhou Yun did not get angry, smiling and nodding as he said, “That’s true. Auntie Zhang, help this other new student I’m bringing around as well.”

He pointed to the somewhat confused Guo Sheng.

The woman did not refuse. She obtained the chubby boy’s ID and admission notice, then entered his information.

She pursed her lips slightly and said, “Area One, number 199.”

“Tsk tsk…”

Zhou Yun tutted. He turned his head to glance at Guo Sheng and gave him a dry smile. “How much did your old man pay?”

Guo Sheng’s face reddened. “He didn’t. This… Isn’t this a normal assignment?” he asked in a small voice.

“Ha ha ha…”

Zhou Yun roared with laughter. A few of the senior students near him could not resist laughing too.

Before Zhou Yun could open his mouth, someone else laughed and said, “Area One has a total of 200 rooms. The first 100 are assigned according to your results.

“The latter 100 are assigned for sponsorship.

“You know what I mean by sponsorship fees?

“I’m willing to bet your family has sponsored at least 200 thousand!”

“200 thousand? His Vitality’s not high—I would say it was at least 300 thousand.”

“The prices of Area One rooms have increased now?”

“…”

The senior students brazenly discussed it. The chubby guy’s face was as red as a tomato.

Under-the-table dealings were bad enough, but people actually found out about it!

Upon seeing them joking around, the woman said impatiently, “Why the commotion? Wealth is also a resource. What’s wrong with making use of a resource?

“Moreover, the sponsorship fees are ultimately used on you.

“This is the rich giving to the poor. Otherwise, how else are the poor students supposed to obtain resources?”

Nobody laughed anymore after she said this.

Perhaps MCMAU was very realistic and very profit-oriented, but they treated their students quite fairly.

If you had strength, they gave you resources. If you did not, they still did their best so you did not fall too far behind.

Dormitory assignments were a blatant way to make money. A minimum of 200 thousand was normal. The 100 rooms collected up to 20 million every year—sometimes even up to forty or fifty million.

Where was this money spent?

As the woman said, it was used on MCMAU’s students. The school would not want for money as they did not lack it.

Of course, a few million were not much for martial artists, and there were even fewer who could get more.

Still, this was an attitude that let rich families know they could use their wealth to get better treatment than others.

It also told the poor students that this money would not be taken by the school. If you work hard, the money would be yours. It did not matter if your lodgings were lousy. If you got stronger, you would have everything!

Hence, everybody laughed about the rich kids’ under-the-table deals to get better accommodations in exchange for sponsorship fees but did not treat it as a big deal.

There were some things that were acceptable to students as long as they were done openly.

If they tried to hide it, a lot more people would be displeased by someone like Guo Sheng moving into Area One.

Zhou Yun did not continue making fun of Guo Sheng once he received the key and said, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you guys to take a look at the dorms. What comes after doesn’t involve me. The school will arrange it.”

“Auntie, I’m leaving now. I’ll find you again when I have time.”

Fang Ping said to the woman. It did not matter whether or not the woman was treating him so well because of his strength. She was indeed very friendly to him.

The woman smiled and nodded but did not respond. She resumed helping others register.

When Fang Ping and the others left, the student behind Fang Ping in registration said sourly, “Teacher, how high is that student’s Vitality?”

Powerhouses took priority. Even if he acknowledged it, he did not know Fang Ping’s circumstances at the moment, so he naturally could not accept it readily.

“Twice-honed.”

The woman did not even raise her head and quickly said, “Area Three, number 168.”

The student who asked the question was not in the mood to hear his own dormitory assignment anymore. He knew about twice-honing, unlike Guo Sheng’s complete ignorance.

He was not sure of the details of what could be considered twice-honed, but he knew one must break through 150cal for it to work.

MCMAU was indeed the gathering grounds of geniuses. He could so easily encounter a genius who broke through 150cal of Vitality.

The student was no longer unwilling to accept it. His Vitality was 138cal. He knew how difficult it was.

The other party could reach above 150cal. No matter if he was a genius or from a good family background, there was no need to be bitter about it.

“Senior Zhou, is there something different about this dormitory assignment?”

After they left the reception, Fang Ping questioned as they walked.

“The new students’ dormitories are divided into four areas, and every area has 200 rooms.

“Area One is a single person room, Area Two is two to a room, Area Three is three in a room, and Area Four has four in a room, which accommodate a total of 2000 students.

“Every area will leave a portion of their rooms free for future assignments.

“You guys were assigned to Area One, which is an individual room.

“An individual room…”

Fang Ping choked. MCMAU was really rich. They only had about a thousand students, yet they provided 800 rooms.

Zhou Yun smiled wryly. “It’s very normal. The roofing doesn’t cost much.

“Moreover, someone who graduated from MCMAU had a real estate development business and built the rooms for the school without charge.

“As for the space, MCMAU has 30 thousand mu of land and only about 6000 students, do you think they won’t have enough space?”

They did not lack money nor land, and the rooms were constructed for free. If it were not for making the students feel inferior, they could have made individual rooms for everyone.

The only reason they did not was to trigger the students’ desire for improvement.

The dormitories were located to the east of the school. It was not just the new students’ area, other years’ dormitories were there too.

When they reached the dormitories, Fang Ping realized his view of the world had been too narrow.

These were not the dormitories he had envisioned; this was a high-end villa district!

There were no towering dormitory buildings. They were all townhouses with two or three stories.

On either side of the road, trees with green foliage provided shade and flowers bloomed in abundance.

The townhouses were all situated around a man-made lake, forming a ring.

Fang Ping was speechless. Guo Sheng was slack-jawed and wide-eyed as he said, “Feels about the same as my house. The school has so much money…”

Hearing this, the chubby guy’s family was clearly wealthy.

That was not unusual. He had forked out two or three hundred thousand for a dorm—it was not something that could be done if he had been poor.

Zhou Yun was pleased by their shock. He smiled. “Martial artists go through some really stressful times. If even the dorms were cramped, we’d go crazy sooner or later.

“The school gave us this environment so that we can properly manage our moods and emotions.

“Of course, only our MCMAU is like this!

“Even Capital City Martial Arts University doesn’t have our foresight!”

Zhou Yun was obviously proud of MCMAU. When he mentioned Capital City Martial Arts University, although he felt no scorn, he did his best to belittle them.

As he spoke, Zhou Yun brought the stunned people over to New Students Area One.

The New Students Area One was at the southeast corner of the dormitory area. It was quiet at the moment in other areas, and there were few people around too, but there were many in the new students’ area.

Fang Ping and the rest met some of the other students who had come to register today on the way over.

However, they did know each other well. Unless Zhou Yun met up with the senior students he was familiar with, they did not make small talk.

A few minutes later, Fang Ping arrived at his room.

Area One, number 86.

Room number 86 was on the second floor. New Students Area One was a two-story townhouse. The upper floor was the first 100 rooms and the lower floor was rooms 101 to 200.

The layout was still modeled after the usual university dormitories and hotel rooms.

On either side of a corridor, there were 50 rooms.

Fang Ping’s room was between 85 on the left and 87 on the right, and room number 15 was in front of him.

Currently, other rooms had people’s names, and some did not. The rooms surrounding his were very quiet. The people assigned to them probably had not arrived yet.

By the time he opened the room door, Fang Ping was already done being surprised.

There was a bedroom, a living room, a training room, a study, a bathroom, and even a kitchen!

Fang Ping roughly estimated the whole room was probably not smaller than 120 square meters.

This was a one-person room!

It was just the new students’ dorm too. MCMAU could not just be described as prosperous.

If other areas had the same layout, even Area Four’s four-person rooms were definitely not bad. Many families of five or six people squeezed into rooms that were less than a hundred square meters.

In the bedroom, there was a bed, a wardrobe, a couch… All of these were included.

It had been tidied really well too. It only lacked a few necessities that the students had to purchase themselves.

Fang Ping could not help thinking about his parents being worried that he would be able to eat or sleep well before he came here and nagging at him to gather some housemates himself…

‘Do I have housemates?’

Fang Ping wondered, ‘There’s only me in this entire room. I don’t even have housemates—unless the people next door count.’

After looking around the room for a bit, Fang Ping did not bother any longer.

Zhou Yun left after bringing him to the bottom floor, but before he walked away, he gave each of them a schedule for the next activities.

The morning was allocated for the students’ arrival, and there was an allotted time for students to buy their daily necessities and say goodbye to their parents.

At 3 in the afternoon, everybody had to gather at Field 1—MCMAU had seven or eight fields. Fang Ping did not analyze the map properly.

There was only the one task today, which was to gather.

8 am the next day, everyone was to gather at the Building of Practical Combat Training. Fang Ping knew this was for the school selection.

After that, there was nothing more scheduled. Everything else would be arranged after the assignment. It was a very short schedule.

“I have to buy my daily necessities, and I also have to retrieve my luggage from the hotel…”

The school’s dormitories were very nice and it was also conveniently located on the school grounds, so Fang Ping did not plan to continue staying at the hotel.

“Right, what is it that I’ve forgotten?”

Fang Ping suddenly remembered something. It took a moment before he mumbled, “Don’t I have to pay school fees?”

He recalled the admission notice had not mentioned that it was free. If he remembered correctly, it was ten thousand for the registration fees. Why did they not ask him to pay?

Fang Ping wracked his brain but stopped worrying about it after a while. If they did not ask him to pay then it did not matter. Perhaps MCMAU did not care about these fees and did not want them?

Just as Fang Ping was ready to go out and buy his necessities, someone knocked on his room door.

“Is there anyone here?”

“I’m from the dorm next door!”

“…”

Clearly, someone had settled in and was ready to meet new classmates.

Although their schools and teachers had not been assigned yet, the possibility of the people living in Area One’s first hundred rooms being assigned to the same one was very high.

The first 100 rooms were assigned according to their entrance results. Fang Ping could enter the first 100 due to his 149cal Vitality.

Fang Ping even suspected the school had already known about his second bone-honing, which was why he was assigned to the first 100 rooms.

Otherwise, although his Vitality was not low, his cultural studies and general studies results were all average.

Here at Magic City Martial Arts University, there were 52 martial artists and 9 people who had gone through bone-honing twice. Were there people who had a Vitality of above 150cal without reaching a second bone-honing?

All in all, if it was based on the exam results, there was no way he could have placed in the top 100.

Fang Ping stopped thinking too much and opened the door. Although it was peaceful being alone, getting to know his future classmates was not bad either. It would be livelier.
