"Classmate, you’re definitely not from the Cube Cards major, right?"
The staff mber started chatting with Li Pu while inputting commands on the screen.
"How did you know?"
Li Pu was a bit surprised.
Could it be that he had a face that looked like he couldn’t play cards?
"Haha, just experience talking."
In fact, the staff mber had handled this kind of transaction many tis before.
Generally speaking, the end of the academic year is a peak period.
Because first-year students in the Cube Cards major usually complete their ranking matches during that ti.
At other tis, like now, the majority are non-major students.
After all, the Cube Cards major has certain assessnts and plans, and students aren’t allowed to randomly participate in ranking matches.
"I see."
After hearing the explanation, Li Pu finally understood.
"Alright, now I need you to swipe your watch."
After bringing up the input page, the staff mber began to guide Li Pu.
To encourage students’ enthusiasm, Xidu University has relevant regulations.
As long as a student has completed a ranking match, they will receive an extra reward, which is independent of the association and provided by Xidu University itself.
"Uh, my watch is broken."
Facing this request, Li Pu was a bit embarrassed.
"Is that so? Well, a student card will do."
The staff mber was prepared for this.
He took the student card Li Pu handed over and swiped it on the machine.
[Beep]
Soon, so of Li Pu’s information appeared on the screen.
"Huh?"
But upon seeing that Li Pu was only a first-year student, the staff mber was stunned.
It’s known that during this period, those coming in to receive stipends are usually second-, third-, and fourth-year students.
Because first-year freshn have only been in school for a month!
While others are busy adapting to the new campus life, starting their studies, and nurturing their first summoned beasts, you’re playing cards?
(Looks like this student is a bit careless about proper duties.)
The staff mber’s perception of Li Pu changed after taking another look at him.
The key was that this guy wasn’t even a Cube Cards major student, yet was eager to participate in ranking matches. What good rank could he achieve?
On further thought, he reckoned Li Pu had just completed his ranking match.
Which ans this student was not only eager but also quite bold.
Last night’s version had just been updated, and he was still researching and exploring, yet Li Pu went ahead and participated in a ranking match. Truly impressive.
The staff mber estimated that under such circumstances, Li Pu’s ranking match results were probably not great.
Possibly all losses or just 1 or 2 wins; a Bronze 2 rank would already be decent.
"Please press here for fingerprint verification."
While thinking this, he continued guiding Li Pu to the next step.
That was a school verification, and now it was ti for the association’s.
[Beep Beep!]
As Li Pu’s finger pressed down, his rank appeared on the screen.
(See, I told you.)
Glancing at the rank on the screen, the staff mber secretly pouted.
Bronze 3... hang on!
However, a second later, he rubbed his eyes vigorously.
"Gold 3...?"
"What the heck is this?!"
After confirming he hadn’t seen wrong, he was shocked on the spot.
"Lucky, lucky, just luck."
Li Pu humbly waved his hand.
On his way over, he had contemplated his 10 ranking matches.
Securing a Gold 3 rank indeed had a large luck factor.
The main factor was encountering that Gold-ranked player in his 10th match.
The stronger the opponent, the higher the rank, and naturally more beneficial for ranking.
So not entirely being humble, he was genuinely very lucky.
Because of his luck, he t a points-giving easy prey.
"Uh, isn’t your luck a bit too good?"
The staff mber clearly didn’t quite believe Li Pu’s words.
But to claim cheating was impossible, since it was Cube Cards, cheating wasn’t an option.
He had only been employed for a year and a half and had been at the Xidu University office for just one year.
In his mory, the highest ranking he processed last year was only Silver 2.
So seeing Li Pu’s Gold 3 was why he was so shocked.
"This is Gold 3, after all..."
"I wonder if this might be the highest record at the Xidu University office."
Saying this, the staff mber couldn’t help shaking his head in amazent.
He decided to check the archives after Li Pu left to satisfy his curiosity.
"May I ask, how much is the one-ti stipend for Gold 3?"
Li Pu didn’t know what the other was thinking and was only concerned with money matters.
"Oh, sorry, haha!"
"I’ll check for you right away."
The impact of Gold 3 had made the staff forget his main task.
Apologizing, he continued manipulating the panel.
However, an even bigger shock awaited on the next page.
At first glance of the number, he was stunned.
Afraid of making a mistake again, he began counting in a hurry.
"One, two, three, four, five..."
"Units, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands..."
"One, two, three, four, five..."
"Units, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands..."
After counting multiple tis, the staff mber finally accepted reality.
"Um..."
Stunned for quite a while, he said with an uncertain expression: "Your one-ti stipend is 56,203 Crystal Coins...?"
"Huh?"
Not just the staff mber, even Li Pu himself was dumbfounded.
56,203?
56k Crystal Coins?
Are you sure this isn’t a joke?
"Why so much..."
After a few seconds, he asked the question everyone would ask.
"Let take a look..."
The staff mber was equally puzzled and opened up the detailed breakdown.
The result was a long list displayed clearly.
[Initial Rank Reward]: 20,000
[Match Performance]: 5,601
[Deck Rating]: 6,678
[Total Duration]: 3,845
[Opponent Level]: 5,000
...
[School Reward]: 5,000 (maxed)
There were over twenty different awards listed; besides the [Initial Rank Reward], what struck the staff mber most was that the [School Reward] was maxed out.
This ant that Xidu University’s original expectation was that no student would end a ranking match with a Gold 3 rank.
"You... please wait here for a mont."
"The amount is too large, I need to consult with a manager."
Turning the screen towards Li Pu, the staff mber, feeling out of control and starting to sweat, stood up.
The maximum he could handle per transaction was 1,000 Crystal Coins, and a figure like 56k clearly exceeded his authority.
So he left Li Pu to wait alone and hurriedly went up the stairs.
