Voluntary withdrawal? Good for everyone?
Su Xing sneered inwardly, probably only good for your performance as the homeroom teacher, right?
As Su Xing's homeroom teacher, Liu Xiaodong was naturally responsible for student assessment metrics and post-graduation employment rates.
However, at the moment, Su Xing was far from meeting the gold-tier standard. Liu Xiaodong was likely intending to drive Su Xing out of school.
Of course, the reputation of being forcibly withdrawn was not pleasant.
But if a student voluntarily withdraws due to special circumstances, it's different!
Would Su Xing comply with his wishes? Absolutely not!
Su Xing shook his head and said,
"Mr. Liu, I have no intention of voluntarily withdrawing, after all, the environment at school is quite good for me!"
Liu Xiaodong's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but he continued to say,
"Su Xing! I know it's not easy for you right now. If you are willing to voluntarily withdraw, I am ready to represent the academy to give you compensation of half a million Great Xia Coins. What do you think?"
"Moreover, I'm also willing to help you find a job! There's a vacancy for a security guard in the teacher's neighborhood. With your abilities, you could give it a try!"
Su Xing's face darkened upon hearing this.
A mere half million to drive him away?
And kindly introduce him to a security guard job? This was clearly an insult!
Su Xing stared tightly at Liu Xiaodong in front of him, and the image of him three years ago begging humbly for Su Xing to be his student surfaced in his mind.
Back then, this guy even promised an annual scholarship of three million.
Of course, not a single penny has been given to this day.
Su Xing took a deep breath and said firmly,
"Mr. Liu, I have no intention of withdrawing from school. I find the atmosphere of Kyoto Vocational University quite good and suitable for my cultivation!"
Upon hearing Su Xing's words, Mr. Liu no longer pretended and coldly sneered,
"Su Xing! You still haven't recognized the reality? You are no longer the genius of three years ago!"
"Now you're just a bottom-feeder in our department, a total hindrance!"
"Kyoto Vocational University is a prestigious institution with a history of centuries. Should we let your presence tarnish the school's reputation? Can you live with that?"
Liu Xiaodong slammed the table, making clang sounds, and mocked,
"If you voluntarily withdraw now, you can still save face. Otherwise, when you are forced to withdraw, you will be laughed at by everyone in the school!"
Hearing Liu Xiaodong's words, Su Xing felt even more disdain.
Kyoto Vocational University, as the nation's top institution, wouldn't be bothered by whether he could graduate. Even if he couldn't graduate, it would hardly tarnish the school's reputation.
In essence, Liu Xiaodong was merely concerned with making his performance review look better.
So Su Xing paid him no mind and said indifferently,
"Mr. Liu, anything else? If not, I'm leaving now!"
Without giving Liu any face, Su Xing turned around and walked out.
Liu Xiaodong was left stomping in rage inside the office.
Su Xing had already simulated the future and knew that Kyoto Vocational University would not force him to withdraw at this point.
Even if he were to withdraw, that wouldn't be for another five years.
And during this time, he would naturally choose to stay in school.
After all, the outside world was very dangerous, whereas Kyoto Vocational University was full of experts, making it safer for Su Xing.
Moreover, the resources within the school could help him quickly gather the energy needed for simulations.
After leaving the office, Su Xing first spent all his savings, along with the five million Great Xia Coins borrowed from Fatty Yu.
Su Xing used the money to buy nearly four thousand pieces of white-quality equipment.
He then converted all this equipment into energy.
In this way, Su Xing's energy total reached an astounding 22,040 points!
Over twenty thousand points of energy, which was an enormous fortune for Su Xing.
Over the next week, Su Xing continued to power-level in dungeons as usual.
Occasionally, he checked in on his junior, Wang Qingxuan.
Finally, the day when the simulator usage count refreshed arrived.
In his dormitory, Su Xing unhesitatingly chose to simulate.
"Whether I can embark on the cultivation path depends on this time!"
"Start simulation!"
[500 points of energy consumed. Remaining energy: 21,540 points. Remaining simulations: 1.]
[Simulation begins!]
[Drawing white talent costs 100 points of energy, drawing green talent costs 1,000 points of energy. Draw?]
"Draw white talent!"
Though Su Xing had enough energy to draw green talent, his primary purpose this time was to obtain Spirit Stones, so white talent sufficed.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have acquired white talent: You got bald, but you didn't get stronger.]
[You got bald, but you didn't get stronger]: White talent, you suffer premature hair loss. Your hair falls out more easily than your peers, but your bald appearance resembles that of a high monk in a temple, making it easier to earn others' trust and goodwill.
Su Xing: ???
What kind of crappy talent is this!
Su Xing glanced at his hair; luckily, it was still thick.
[You touched your hair and several strands fell out.]
[You felt something was wrong and hurriedly bought BaWang shampoo and Minoxidil on Taobao in hopes of treating the hair loss.]
[As usual, you leveled up newbies and gained substantial rewards each time.]
[Six months passed, your hair became thinner, but your wallet grew fatter.]
[The thinning hair affected your looks, and you lost many chances for deeper interactions with junior schoolgirls.]
[But Wang Qingxuan didn't mind at all and still treated you warmly.]
[Another six months passed, and your hair became even sparser. You decided to shave it all off.]
[For some reason, being bald, you preferred using your fists to crush monsters in dungeons, often one-shotting them due to your strong physique.]
[Your friendly appearance made freshmen more willing to hire you for power-leveling services. In just one year, you accumulated 30 million in assets.]
[You became somewhat famous in Kyoto Vocational University, nicknamed: One Punch Man.]
[One day, Wang Qingxuan found you and told you about a mystical organization.]
Su Xing subconsciously touched his hair and fell into deep thought.
Honestly, he had already acquired the first half of the Changchun Technique and wasn't keen on further entanglement with that organization.
But the problem was, Su Xing only had the first half of the Changchun Technique and had to pave the way for the future.
And the Changchun Technique originated from that mystical organization, so there might be a chance to find the second half there!
Su Xing took a deep breath and continued the simulation.
[Amidst the uncanny feeling, you thought Wang Qingxuan's involvement with the mystical organization might help you more, so you followed your plan and still persuaded her not to join.]
[The next morning, you were left alone in the hotel bed. Wang Qingxuan had withdrawn from school.]
[You knew Wang Qingxuan had joined that mystical organization again, so you weren't too worried.]
Su Xing furrowed his brows slightly upon seeing this, and a thought emerged.
"Could it be that my thoughts in reality could be directly reflected in the simulator?"
