Xiang Beifei learned for the first time that his father had been an SR-level Awakener.
He also understood that Li Nanxing had given him these two items likely because of the prestige value his father had gained when awakening his SR system, and now it was a form of repayment to him.
But to be honest, Li Nanxing didn't owe Xiang Beifei anything; his "Confucian Saint System" wasn't obtained through plundering.
Li Nanxing's "Confucian Saint System", like Yang Hua's "Master Dao System", had the marvelous quality of instructing and solving doubts for others.
The difference was that Li Nanxing chose to strengthen himself by properly educating his students, truly considering their needs, cultivating them into talents, and gaining system prestige through their achievements later on.
Yang Hua, on the other hand, chose to criticize his students to increase his teacher's prestige value, always pointing out their faults.
Thus, the breadth of their spirits differed.
One could say that Principal Li Nanxing was truly a paragon of teachers.
"If an N-level system student were admitted to an elite university, I wonder how much prestige value that would bring?"
Xiang Beifei pondered.
——
Qi Condensing Pills and Forgetting Dust Pills.
Xiang Beifei indeed needed these two items right now.
Not to create a learning environment, but to activate his astrological points.
As for improving his cultural studies grades, that was not difficult for him.
Xiang Beifei left the principal's office and headed to the classroom. The hallway was still bustling with students, many senior year students queuing up, waiting for System School Selection Consultation.
Soon, he spotted Kong Xiuwen amidst the crowd.
Kong Xiuwen had just come out from a consultation room, excitedly talking to Liu Qianrou.
Xiang Beifei felt that something was amiss and glanced at Liu Qianrou's system interface, furrowing his brows slightly.
[You have gained an S-level potential backup, backup value at 30]
Had Kong Xiuwen unwittingly fallen into a trap?
Liu Qianrou had now gathered 30 backup values, enough to exchange for a secret manual on training body techniques, yet she hadn't rushed to exchange it, instead conversing with Kong Xiuwen like a sweet, dependent bird, continuously plundering from Kong Xiuwen.
"You're still here, hurry up, I have something to talk to you about, come this way."
Xiang Beifei grabbed Kong Xiuwen and started walking back, to prevent him from being completely drained by Liu Qianrou.
"Then... then let's talk after school, bye."
Kong Xiuwen didn't forget to turn back and wave goodbye to Liu Qianrou while being pulled away by Xiang Beifei.
"Alright, Xiuwen, I'll wait for you after school."
Liu Qianrou spoke softly.
Kong Xiuwen, being an S-level Awakener, had certainly gained a lot just now.
After walking a distance, Xiang Beifei finally said to Kong Xiuwen, "Listen to my advice, don't interact too much with Liu Qianrou."
Kong Xiuwen found it odd and said, "I always feel like something's off with you, just now when Liu Qianrou greeted me, you deliberately interrupted, and now you're telling me not to interact with her... Ah! I get it, you wouldn't happen to like her, do you?"
Xiang Beifei: "???"
"Are you worried that I'll steal the girl you like?"
Kong Xiuwen eyed Xiang Beifei with a strange look.
Xiang Beifei's mouth twitched.
How would his brain have to be wired for him to like an Awakener like Liu Qianrou?
——
Liu Qianrou had been watching her system interface all along, and at this moment, a new message appeared:
[Two potential backups are fighting over you out of jealousy]
[You have plundered the personal charm of an S-level potential backup, your personal charm +20]
```
[You've plundered the charm of an N-level potential backup, your charm value +1]
...
"Heh, what a couple of fools! They turn against each other after just a few words."
Liu Qianrou looked at her system panel and chuckled with pride.
This system is just too easy to use; even jealousy over a backup can boost her own value. She would love nothing more than for Xiang Beifei and Kong Xiuwen to come to blows!
At that moment, she suddenly saw Qi Bin walking towards her.
"What if three backups were jealous over me? Wouldn't that increase the system values even more?"
Liu Qianrou plotted in her heart as she walked towards Qi Bin.
——
"Don't think too much, I don't have any feelings for her."
Xiang Beifei said.
"Come on, Liu Qianrou is at least the belle of the year, what's so embarrassing about admitting you like her?" Kong Xiuwen's eyes rolled as he continued, "But she is indeed beautiful, no wonder you're tempted."
A twitch appeared at the corner of Xiang Beifei's mouth.
Am I tempted by her as a person?
But Kong Xiuwen slapped Xiang Beifei's shoulder in a carefree manner, saying, "Don't worry about it; we're like brothers. Since you admire Liu Qianrou, as your brother, I can't possibly steal her from you. Alright, then I won't compete with you for her."
Xiang Beifei pressed his hand to his forehead, feeling quite vexed.
Kong Xiuwen had been his playmate since childhood, and with his tall and strong build, he used to stand up for Xiang Beifei whenever someone bullied him in school. They were very close.
When he said that, it couldn't be false.
"Anyway, it's best if you refrain from chatting with Liu Qianrou in the future."
Xiang Beifei didn't go into details.
"Understood, we're about to go to college soon, the outside world is full of beauty and splendor, no need to dwell on the high school belle. I'll cut off this thought right now, alright? Though, I think you should be psychologically prepared, after all, she is..."
Kong Xiuwen hadn't finished his words when suddenly an angry voice came from behind.
"You two are also worthy of liking someone as noble as Qianrou? Can't you even take a good look at yourselves in the mirror?"
Xiang Beifei and Kong Xiuwen both turned their heads.
It was Qi Bin!
This guy had awoken the [S-level Summoning Monster System], a very domineering and powerful system.
Although he hadn't defeated a desolate beast yet, he was already an Awakener in the Qi-Controlling realm, given the S-level system's easy entry tasks.
Just now, Liu Qianrou had told him that two clueless guys were getting handsy with her, and with his volatile temper, hearing that made him instantly furious!
Liu Qianrou had even given him the card for the Green Light Hotel room for tonight!
And now two guys dared to cause trouble?
How could he tolerate that?
Qi Bin sneered as he stared at Xiang Beifei: "I remember you, you're the one who went from a genius to a waste yesterday. Liu Qianrou is an S-level Awakener, do you really think you stand a chance at winning her favor? With your N-level system?"
"Who we like is none of your damn business!"
Kong Xiuwen stepped forward, instinctively shielding Xiang Beifei behind him.
He knew the other was an Awakener in the Qi-Controlling realm, and since Xiang Beifei was just an ordinary person, he couldn't let Qi Bin harm him.
But Qi Bin showed no intention of getting physical, as cameras were everywhere in the school, and any conflicts couldn't be settled there.
"I'm just warning some people not to be delusional about aiming too high, better weigh themselves first."
Qi Bin loomed threateningly over Xiang Beifei.
Xiang Beifei realized something and inadvertently turned his head, sure enough, there was Liu Qianrou not far away, enjoying the spectacle.
