Chapter 24 - The Storm of Comments

Chapter 24 The Storm of Comments

The freshmen tournament would be held in about a month’s time. Fran calculated that a month’s time would be enough for him to consolidate his knowledge!

He had to make good use of this opportunity. If he could get that generous bonus, he would have enough for Flora’s tuition fees for the next year!

“What’s in that box? It’s so heavy.”

Fatty pointed at Fran’s luggage in the corner. “Oh, my mom packed it for me. I don’t know.” Fran scratched his head in embarrassment. Before he left, Lina had been crazily stuffing things into his suitcase, and he didn’t know what his mom had packed for him.

When he arrived at the dormitory, he opened his suitcase, and a set of exquisite protective gear jumped out.

“Damn! An intermediate protective gear!”

Fatty’s eyes lit up when he saw the protective gear in Fran’s hands. “I heard that this kind of protective equipment can only be bought for 300 gold coins on the market!” One gold coin was equivalent to a hundred silver coins, and gold coins were only available to very rich people!

“Fran, where did you get this? I heard that you didn’t have a rich back…” Fatty realized that he had said something wrong and immediately shut his mouth.

Fran didn’t mind. “It’s a reward from the school.”

“Your school is so generous!”

Fatty gave Fran a big thumbs up. Their school’s first place also had a reward, but it was only a skill book of beginner level 10 and above.

Compared to Fran’s set of protective gear, it was like heaven and earth! Seeing Fatty’s praise, Fran felt that this set of protective equipment was even more precious.

He had originally planned to leave this set of protective equipment at home for his parents. He didn’t expect his mother to secretly give him protective equipment. Fran made up his mind. He couldn’t let down his parents ‘expectations!

Although Fatty liked the protective gear in Fran’s hands very much, but looking at Fran’s precious expression, he knew that Fran must be lost in thought. He also had nothing to do, besides lying on the sofa and browsing the community forums.

In order to better integrate into the community forum, he specially registered an account and began to read all kinds of posts.

Just as he had expected, in just half an hour,

someone had already posted the video of Fran and Song Wei’s match on the community forum.

“Fran, quickly come and see! You’re on the hot search!”

Fatty excitedly pulled Fran over to watch the video. In just a few minutes, the video of the fight had been shared more than a thousand times. It seemed that Fran had become famous

in the school after this fight!

“If you’re on the hot search, do you get

money?”

Fran seriously looked at Fatty.

In the past, he used to think that some

trending searches could earn him money. He didn’t know if he could make money by being on the hot search.

“How could you make money on the school forum? But you can earn reputation points! You don’t know that in the Canglan Academy,

reputation is more valuable than money!”

Fatty was so excited that his saliva was flying everywhere.

In the Canglan Academy, only the most powerful people would have a reputation. With

reputation, there would be people who would take the initiative to pay protection fees.

“Oh.”

Fran wasn’t interested in this and continued to

pack his luggage. Fatty, on the other hand, became more and more excited as he scrolled

through the video. He directly opened the comment section under the video.

“Who is this Fran? He actually beat Song Wei?”

Those who didn’t see the match during the day immediately asked questions in the forum. After all, Song Wei’s reputation in the Canglan Academy wasn’t small. This time, he had actually challenged a new student and had been defeated. It was extremely embarrassing! “I heard that he’s the top student of this batch of new students. Could it be that he directly awakened a high-level profession?” Someone immediately replied.

“I think the skill he used is instant slash.

[Instant Slash] is an advanced skill that only advanced professionals can learn!” Many people started to analyze the skill Fran

had used.

From the slow-motion video, it could be seen

that Song Wei didn’t even have time to react

before he was defeated by Fran.

This was simply a godly attack! “This doesn’t look like an instant slash. Didn’t

you guys see it during teacher’s class? The speed of the instant slash is much faster than

this, and the moves are also different. If you have the time to chat here, why don’t you focus on the class?”

Some of the students who were better at

studying stood up to refute. Although Fran’s last move was very similar to instant slash, it wasn’t actually the same.

First of all, the starting move was different from the instant slash. Second, the speed was not as fast as the instant slash. Moreover, its power was far inferior to that of the instant

slash. However, the skill he used didn’t seem like a

low-level skill, which was very puzzling.

“What expert? He’s just a student at the bottom of Olly Academy who hasn’t changed

his profession yet. Who knows what kind of dog shit luck he got this time to become the number one in the province?”

One of the IDs, ‘God Jess’, stood out among the

many comments. His comments were immediately bombarded by Fran’s fans, who thought he was saying that out of jealousy.

But soon, the students from other schools gathered Fran’s identity details, and someone even made a list of Fran’s character.

“Fran, 18 years old, Olly Academy student, first

place in the college entrance exam, Medal of Honor recipient.”

“He hasn’t changed his class, so his grades

have always been at the bottom of the school.”

There were also a few of Fran’s test results, all of which he had failed.

“How can he become the No. 1 at the provincial

level and enter our school without a job change!”

A few extremely convincing result slips immediately turned the situation around. Many students started to doubt Fran’s abilities.

“He must have used some tricks to get first place. Even a special enrollment student like Roland did not score as high as him. I think he just took advantage of the fact that he has not changed his occupation yet and has more skills

to confuse the Chief Examiner with some fancy tricks!”

An anonymous comment said in disdain.

“But the main examiner this time is Lord

Haplos! That Great Demon King shouldn’t have made a mistake, right?”

Very quickly, there were people who disagreed with the anonymous comment. Everyone knew the name ‘Haplos’, and they also knew that this Great Demon King had very sharp eyes. Even Roland, who was ranked second, only

received a ‘not bad’ from him. How did this person, who had not changed his class, obtain the recognition of Lord Haplos and obtain the first place in the province as well as the Medal of Honor?

“Who knows if he bribed the Chief Examiner

with that money?” The anonymous comment section was filled with disdain again.

“But he’s from the slums, what could he use to

bribe the Chief Examiner? Was he poor? I’m afraid that Sir Haplos isn’t that bored!” A person with the ID of Princess Nana replied

with an emoji of rolling eyes. The anonymous commenter did not reply after that. Fatty read through the comments section and looked at Fran, who was still packing his

luggage. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration.

The slums, no class change, first at the provincial level, Medal of Honor, all these

things combined on one person was really awesome!

“Fran! Tifa said she wants to challenge you!”
