SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 60
Chapter 60: Skill Library, Saint Knight Skill Upgrade Path!
TL: YYang
On Blue Star, there were primarily two ways for professionals to gain experience and level up.
The first was to venture into the wild and kill magical beasts to gain leveling experience.
The second was to enter dungeons, defeat monsters and bosses, and gain leveling experience.
Since dungeons had return scrolls, the safety of dungeon runs was relatively much higher than grinding in the wild.
Of course, the entry methods for dungeons on Blue Star were almost entirely controlled by large forces.
This was also the case in Zhongxia Country.
Top universities and large forces controlled nearly all dungeon entry methods.
Because of this, everyone tried their hardest to get into the top universities during the college entrance exam.
Generally, a school with a dungeon was already considered quite good.
Suhang University, as a top university, had as many as three dungeons!
However, despite the number of dungeons, entry levels were restricted.
Many students, when not meeting the level requirements, had to venture into the wild to level up by killing magical beasts.
Once in the wild, encountering high-level magical beasts was unavoidable.
To deal with such situations and to increase survival rates, most students chose to form teams.
To facilitate team formation, students at Suhang University established numerous societies.
For example, the Aurora Society, Eternal Glory Society, and others.
Among these, the Aurora Society was the largest and most powerful society at Suhang University.
Not only were ordinary members of the society generally above level 20, but the society’s officers were all level 27 or 28.
The president and vice president positions required a level 35 second-transfer professional.
In the school’s history, there were even instances of professionals above level 40 serving as president.
Many strong individuals, high power!!
Every time they went into the wild, the Aurora Society ensured that each team had at least one level 30 second-transfer professional as the leader.
This made the Aurora Society the society with the lowest casualty rate when hunting magical beasts in the wild at Suhang University.
Countless students wanted to join but couldn’t meet the requirements.
Therefore, when Li Dongsheng extended an invitation to Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan, the surrounding students instantly turned envious.
“The seniors of the Aurora Society who were in their fourth year have graduated and left the school; it seems they’re looking to replenish fresh blood.”
“No kidding! Every year, the Aurora Society recruits the most special admissions students!”
“Tsk tsk, a deputy minister position; even among special admissions, not many get to enjoy such a privilege.”
“I also want to join the Aurora Society, but unfortunately, I’m just one level short, damn it!”
The surrounding people discussed, their words filled with envy.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan, the protagonists, were bewildered:
“Aurora Society?”
It was only the second day of special admissions registration today.
They didn’t know much about societies yet.
Li Dongsheng had anticipated this and introduced with a smile:
“Let me give a brief introduction to our society. The Aurora Society is one of the largest societies at Suhang University. Apart from freshmen like you, all other members are above level 20. Our former president, Liu Chengyuan, was a level 43 Mechanic, who has now graduated and left the school. Our current president is the former vice president Wang Zuyuan, who, like me, is entering his fourth year, but his level is much higher, a level 37 second-transfer Berserker.”
“A level 43 second-transfer Mechanic? A level 37 second-transfer Berserker?” Zhou Yi was secretly astonished.
He didn’t expect a society to have so many high-level professionals.
The former president’s level was even higher than Teacher Su Mei’s!
“By the way, our current president Wang Zuyuan was also the provincial top scorer of Suhang Province three years ago. Once you join, Zhou Yi, you should have plenty to talk about with him.” Li Dongsheng smiled.
In fact, not only Wang Zuyuan, but there were also several other provincial top scorers in the Aurora Society.
This was one reason why the Aurora Society was so strong.
“So, would you consider it? Becoming a deputy minister comes with many other benefits.” Li Dongsheng looked at them with appreciation.
Having just enrolled, their combat prowess was already so formidable.
With more time to nurture them in school, they would become even more terrifying!
Moreover, Zhou Yi was a Saint Knight.
His exceptional recovery and team enhancement abilities made him a candidate worth grooming for future society president.
“I’ll think about it after we leave here. What about you?” Zhou Yi looked at Jiang Churan.
Societies weren’t welfare organizations.
Enjoying benefits meant taking on certain obligations.
Without a detailed understanding of the Aurora Society, he wouldn’t rashly join.
“I’ll think about it too.” Jiang Churan agreed.
“Alright, here’s my contact information. Feel free to reach out anytime once you’ve decided.”
Li Dongsheng knew that as provincial top scorers, Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan wouldn’t rashly join an organization.
After giving them his contact information, he left without further disturbance.
“They actually said they’d think about it!”
“If it were me, I’d agree immediately!”
“A deputy minister position! That’s a sweet deal with 20 credits a month!”
Amidst the incredulous gazes of the seniors, Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan left the scene.
“Zhou Yi, where are you heading next?”
On the road.
Jiang Churan’s tall and graceful figure accompanied Zhou Yi along the way.
Her slightly form-fitting black battle attire was both neat and refreshing, accentuating her impressive curves.
Especially those clear eyes and the unintentional aura of Succubus Power she emitted.
It drew attention, causing many to turn their heads.
Of course, Zhou Yi beside her was no less striking, with his tall and robust physique being perfectly proportioned, showing no signs of crudeness or bulk.
The white shirt couldn’t hide the power beneath it.
Coupled with his chiseled and resolute face and the faint holy aura, he exuded a righteous presence.
As they walked, they naturally drew many glances.
“You go on ahead; I’m planning to visit the Skill Library.” Zhou Yi responded.
The Skill Library housed the skills of various professions collected by Suhang University.
Naturally, it included Saint Knight skills.
With the upcoming trip to the Tempest Mountain Range, he wanted to learn more skills.
After all, he had saved nearly 200 skill points that he hadn’t used yet.
“I’m coming too!” Jiang Churan’s eyes lit up, happily following along: “I also plan to learn a few more Spirit Swordmaster skills. We can go together.”
Though her background wasn’t ordinary, and she had already learned many Spirit Swordmaster skills at home, selecting some for study.
As a top university, Suhang University surely had Spirit Swordmaster skills she wasn’t aware of.
So, she couldn’t miss out on the treasure trove that was Suhang University’s Skill Library.
……
Suhang University covered an area as large as a third of Lijiang City.
With such a vast area, there was only one Skill Library.
This alone signified its importance.
It’s said that Suhang University’s Skill Library gathered skills from all mainstream professions, hidden profession skills.
From basic skills, first-transfer, second-transfer, even third-transfer, and various general skills, rare skills, racial skills, secret techniques, etc.
It had everything.
Thus, the Skill Library was built towering and grand, like a giant beast lying down, exuding a heavy oppressive feeling.
As if it possessed terrifying combat power.
And indeed, it did; there were three third-transfer professionals stationed here.
Not to mention the dozens of Mage Towers around, emanating terrifying magical energy waves, inscribed with various ancient guardian formations.
Even if multiple third-transfer professionals attacked, casting forbidden-level skills together, they couldn’t break this protective formation.
“Beep~”
“Beep~”
After swiping their student cards at the entrance, they were allowed entry.
“Provincial top scorer of Suhang Province, Zhou Yi, provincial top scorer of Chuan Province, Jiang Churan, welcome!”
When they reached the front desk, a bespectacled female teacher stood up to welcome them.
“You know us?” Zhou Yi was a bit surprised; it should have been their first time here.
“When you swiped your cards to enter, your student information was already reported to me.” The female teacher explained with a smile.
She had a good demeanor, naturally carrying an air of scholarly elegance.
Judging by the book titled “Introduction to Elemental Studies” on her desk, she wasn’t just a front desk receptionist.
“I see.” Zhou Yi nodded, then said: “Teacher, we’d like to enter the library to study professional skills.”
A month ago, the special admissions contract signed by Teacher Su Mei clearly stated that after registration, they could access relevant skills.
That’s why they came.
“Alright.”
The teacher wasn’t surprised by this request. After checking on her computer, she said:
“Student Zhou, your reading room is Room 04 on the first floor.”
“Student Jiang, your reading room is Room 08 on the third floor.”
They exchanged a glance and parted ways.
Led by a staff member in uniform, Zhou Yi proceeded inside.
He noticed that the Skill Library had a somewhat Western style, with many individual rooms set up.
Each room had a magic formation displaying the room number and some intricate and luxurious patterns.
“Please.”
After a short walk, a room marked with “04” appeared before Zhou Yi.
The door had been opened by the staff member.
Entering the room.
He saw a large solitary table inside, with a holographic projection operation screen placed on it.
“I’m sorry, because skill books are extremely precious, the original skill books aren’t stored here. You can search for all related skills through this internal holographic operation screen, and there’s also a reference for career paths from predecessors. Once you decide on a skill, we’ll send the skill manual over.”
After explaining some precautions, the staff member closed the door, leaving Zhou Yi alone in Room 04.
Zhou Yi eagerly sat down and lightly touched the holographic operation screen.
Boom~
With a crisp sound, a vast 3D image, like a star map, suddenly appeared.
Beside each shining star, there were skill names and related descriptions.
“This is… the Saint Knight Skill Upgrade Path?”
Zhou Yi’s pupils shrank, his voice filled with astonishment.
