Finally, Charlie was looking forward to the news that the upgrade of the gold badge had been approved, and after receiving the news, Charlie rushed to the badge replacement office as soon as possible.

Charlie was replaced by an old man, just a star mage, perhaps because he was too old, and people were a little chattering.

"Every year, the academy receives a lot of applications for apprenticeship badges, but very few of them are approved, why is that?"

Charlie was a little confused by this question, and then shook his head.

"On the one hand, the fairness and accuracy of talent evaluation are guaranteed, the system of the arcane ring is very fair, the talent evaluation system has been running for nearly a hundred years, it is quite perfect, of course, there have been criticisms recently, I will not comment;

On the other hand, resources are limited, children, after getting the gold badge, understand the rights and interests in it, make good use of it, and at the same time, think about it, what can you bring to the college after you take possession of these resources? ”

There is some truth to that.

Charlie nodded earnestly and handed over his apprentice badge.

The old man walked up to a device with the black iron badge and activated it with the key, shoving Charlie's badge through a hole.

This is the apprentice badge distribution device, Charlie's badge is recycled, the information stored with magic inside will be destroyed, the new finished badge will inherit the existing information, the whole conversion process is closed, the teacher only has the permission to open, and cannot control the operation details.

The magic energy shone, and the steel pipe trembled slightly, and a moment later, with a pop, a badge bounced out of the hole.

The old man picked it up casually, took a closer look, and was stunned.

A withered hand twisted around a gleaming golden badge, the contrast was particularly stark, the badge was in the form of an arcane symbol, slightly larger than a normal steel badge, and it was extraordinarily beautiful.

The old man looked at Charlie's eyes with curiosity and strangeness, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I have served the academy for nearly half a century, and I have seen the gold badge upgrade to the crystal badge, and I have also seen the situation of continuous promotion, but I have never seen an apprentice upgrade from the black iron badge to the gold badge. ”

Charlie wondered, "What's so strange about this? Shouldn't gold upgrade crystals be even more rare?"

The old man shook his head and said, "No, the gold upgrade crystal shows that the academy has affirmed this person's potential, but there are differences in the weight judgment. And if you upgrade from black iron to gold and jump two large tiers, you will expose a loophole in the talent evaluation system, and you are the proof of the loophole, which is a very rare situation. ”

Charlie shrugged, "Okay!"

"Child, cherish it!" the old man handed the badge to Charlie.

Charlie solemnly accepted the badge, it was difficult to suppress the surging mood, the arcane ring is a behemoth, it has its own unique operating rules, and no matter how people with a background come in, they also need to act according to its rules, so Charlie felt so powerless in the face of the lowest talent evaluation results in history, and today he finally relied on his own efforts to enter the backbone of the arcane ring and get rid of the fate of cannon fodder.

Charlie began to check the attributes of the badge, and when he entered the badge with a trace of mental power, he immediately received some feedback, and when he saw its attributes, Charlie couldn't help but be stunned.

Child, we recognize your potential, please keep up the good work and live up to the expectations of the Academy - Luca Ben, Master of the Demon Emblem. ”

Charlie didn't expect that the high-level apprentice badge turned out to be a piece of equipment, or an excellent grade of equipment, the equipment level reached 30, which is the second best equipment that Charlie currently has, aside from the attributes, it is much more useful than the Ring of Riptide, which is equivalent to an apprentice's life-saving hole card.

With up to 200 points per charge, while expensive, it's worth it for life, so it's no wonder that Ferrinand is obsessed with Charlie killing 17 Gold Badge apprentices in seconds.

Charlie also learned after the fact that each class of apprentices with the Gold Badge and higher ranks accounted for 20% of the total apprentices, and the number of new students in this class was about 500, which was an elite selected from all over the mainland, and the number of high-level apprentices was less than 100.

Charlie carefully pinned the badge to his chest, silently thinking in his heart, from today onwards, he is also one in a million elites.

Charlie greeted the old man and turned to head to the points market.

2178 points is Charlie's current point stock, and many second-year seniors are not necessarily as rich as Charlie.

Charlie walked and calculated.

In terms of meditation, he has mastered an advanced meditation method, which is four or five times more efficient than his peers, and he does not need to invest in this aspect for the time being.

In terms of cultivating advanced magic, with the help of Master Nal, there are free materials to study on your own, and if you don't understand, you can consult the master, and the cost of courses in this area is also saved.

In terms of equipment, Charlie recently bought a few good pieces of equipment, and his personal combat effectiveness has increased greatly, 2000 points, saying a lot, many apprentices can't earn it in a year;

The rest can be purchased, only the enhancement of courses and physical fitness in all aspects, based on the positioning Charlie has made for himself, as well as the recovery of the earth and thunder bloodline, the direction of physique and bloodline is a priority investment direction.

Charlie quietly made his choice.

Entering the points market, Charlie asked the instrument to read his apprentice badge, and while checking his points, he found another value of the gold badge, and added a description in the description column of the badge:

"For most items in the trading system, gold badges can enjoy a 20% discount, and some course products can enjoy up to 3% discount.

In addition, some of the Academy's open courses, Gold Badge apprentices can participate free of charge. ”

This is the greatest injustice of the Academy, and on the other hand, it is also the fair manifestation of the law of cruel competition.

It's no wonder that Master Nalr repeatedly told Charlie to spend money after getting the gold badge, and he can really enjoy great discounts.

Charlie expertly opened the item browsing window, set the cap of 2000 points, and filtered out equipment and courses, and listed a long catalog in front of him, in which Charlie's eyes were immediately drawn to one of the records.

"The Heart Blood Essence of the Nine-Headed Lizard extracts nutrient-rich arterial blood from a living heart, and after purification and extraction, twenty drops of heart blood can extract one drop of essence. It has the effect of strengthening the physique, cultivating the essence and strengthening the essence, moisturizing the blood veins, and stimulating the hidden bloodline. 200 points/drop, minimum 2 drops. ”

Seeing this sales record, Charlie sighed with emotion, this person is the real rich man, Mr. Anthony used the materials of the nine-headed lizard's hard work in refining the potion, and he felt that he was a tyrannical thing, and he actually sold the essence directly, but unfortunately, this product does not accept any discount from the situation.

Charlie experienced its effect, and did not hesitate, he directly bought two copies, and the 800 points were gently and skillfully drawn out, and the hard-earned points were immediately reduced by nearly half.

Charlie then proceeded to browse the catalog:

"'The venom sac of the black spotted belly spider', a highly poisonous thing, its toxin makes the chief priest helpless, 60 points / copy. ”

"'The Heart of an Adult Kodomon', the most powerful part of the Guardian of the Plateau, a substance with affinity for the earth, a medium raw material for physique potions, 180 points/piece. ”

"'Thunder and Lightning Wind Snake', the source of the Wind Snake's thunder and lightning, there is no formula associated with it yet, but you may be able to peek into the mystery of thunder and lightning from it, 200 points/piece. ”

What kind of creature is the Thunderbolt Wind Snake?

Seeing this description, Charlie couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, through the seller information column, Charlie found that this was a third-year apprentice released the sale news, relying on the points platform consignment, it is estimated that he himself can't figure out the use, but instinctively feel that it may be useful, 200 points is also a price to test the waters, for people who are not interested, they will definitely not spend the price of 200 points, and those who really want it will not hesitate to take it.

Charlie thought of his thunderous bloodline and decided to buy it, but just as Charlie was about to make a move, the message flashed a few breaths, showing a status of "sold out", and was automatically removed from the sale list.

"Gram!" Charlie slammed his fist on the stone slab, quite annoyed, and actually took a step slower.

Just when Charlie was annoyed, the platform trading operator sent a thick sealed box.

"Hello classmates! I am a trading attendant on the platform, this is the item you purchased, please accept. ”

Charlie slowly opened the box of the sealed magic box, and suddenly a cold air rushed to his face, and under the white mist, four finger-sized blood beads were contained in the delicate and lubricated ceramic vessel, and they actually emitted a slight amber light, which condensed but did not disperse.

"No problem, thank you!" Charlie closed the magic box, although he had never seen the essence of the nine-headed lizard's heart, he believed in the fairness of the points platform.

At this moment, a voice interrupted Charlie's thoughts.

"You bought the essence of your heart's work!When did you become so rich?" a dark shadow crashed into Charlie's vision.

The person who came was an old acquaintance, Prince Weining.

"I'm not rich at all, I'm almost gone. Charlie placed the sealing box on the table on one side and patted it with a smile.

"Ouch! Master Nar did it, you're in luck!" Wei Ning's gaze fell on the badge on Charlie's chest, and there was a hint of sullenness in his eyes.

"yes! Luck. ”

Wei Ning sighed and said, "How about making a deal? Those four drops of heart essence, you sell it to me, I will get 50 more points for each drop, how about it? I will earn 200 points when I change hands, there is no easier good thing than this!"

Charlie replied very simply, "Not for sale!"

Not to mention that hard work is useful to him, even if he doesn't, it won't be cheap Weining.
