Credit is the only currency circulating within Xingyao Academy; it cannot be obtained by exchanging money but only through academy-designated channels.
For example: being in the top 100 on the Strong List, completing missions, arena fights, breaking records, and so forth.
Thus, Credit is the most valuable asset in Xingyao Academy.
With enough Credit, anything can be purchased here.
"This academy has a lot of freedom—completely different from what I imagined."
This suited Feng Yun perfectly; he had no interest in wasting time elsewhere.
However, he wasn't particularly interested in Martial Technique or Cultivation Art classes here.
If he wanted to learn a Martial Technique, he would simply project the instructor and loot it directly.
One step, done in a blink—no time, Credit, or effort wasted.
Hence, these classes had little attraction for him.
Only one thing in Xingyao Academy truly attracted Feng Yun:
The 'Shengyuan Tower' at the academy's center.
It was said to contain an Origin Power Gathering Formation that concentrated the natural Origin Power, making cultivation inside much faster.
The tower had nine floors, each with increasing Origin Power density—from the weakest on the first floor to the strongest on the ninth.
Cultivation inside required expensive Credit payments.
"100 Credit per hour for the first floor?"
Feng Yun's eyes flickered—just that cost was daunting.
Even after sweeping the 20 students in the exam, he'd only been rewarded 200 Credit by the academy.
The cost increased with floors—500 for the second hour, 1,000 for the third, all the way to 30,000 Credit per hour on the ninth floor.
The prices shocked Feng Yun.
"But I'm interested in this Origin Power Gathering Formation. If possible, I'll learn it."
Besides Warriors, three other popular professions existed: Alchemist, Artificer, and Array Master.
Alchemists and Artificers were indispensable to Warriors—Alchemy Pills for cultivation and Weapons for combat.
Array Masters specialized in placing formations like Origin Power Gathering Formation and offensive arrays like the 'Three Talents Sword Formation'.
A skilled Array Master could easily fight many opponents alone by setting formations.
All three professions were highly sought after by countless Warriors, but their requirements were extremely strict.
For example, Alchemists needed Wood and Fire System Talents.
Artificers needed Fire and Gold System Talents.
Array Masters required rare soul Talents.
These harsh prerequisites blocked most people, leaving them longing but unable to achieve the status.
For Feng Yun, these conditions were no obstacle.
If he met an Alchemist, Artificer, or Array Master, he could project them and loot their Talents in no time.
"Xingyao Academy should have them; I'll keep an eye out."
Mastering any one of these professions would free him from money worries.
Right now, he was too poor.
"First, I'll reach Warrior level."
Only at Warrior level would his Attribute Talents be fully unlocked, drastically boosting his power.
With that in mind, Feng Yun ignored everything else, focusing solely on training in the courtyard, doing nothing but eating, projecting, and cultivating.
During his training, news of Feng Yun spread throughout Xingyao Academy.
"Have you heard? This exam, a beast from the outer city swept away our academy's 20 students sent to the exam!"
"Those guys are trash, no wonder they ranked last."
"It's not their fault. I checked. These four academies' students are weak. Any one of the 20 Xingyao students could wipe them out. That boy's too strong. I heard even Sun Xi got one-shotted."
"No way! Sun Xi is a Warrior! Not just defeated but instantly killed? What's that boy's name?"
"Feng Yun, I think."
Feng Yun's name spread like wildfire, stirring curiosity, disdain, and disbelief.
He became a small sensation before even appearing.
Over ten days later, in the courtyard, Feng Yun trained relentlessly, perfecting every move—flawless, textstandard.
Suddenly, his body trembled, vitality and blood roaring like a drum inside.
A majestic aura burst forth, stirring the air and nearby buildings.
Some students noticed.
"Who's making such a big commotion in training?"
"So strong! Could it be a high-level Warrior?"
"Don't know."
Feng Yun smiled knowingly.
After months, at just fourteen, he finally reached Warrior level.
At this age and speed, he could surpass ninety-nine percent of the base's people, or at least most.
Entering mirror space, he checked his status:
