Chapter 224 The Countdown Begins!

Oh?

He was to recruit 3,000 students.

And so far, he had recruited 3,700 students, as well as 27 Caretakers... This of course included Butler Sheng, Haru, and the rest who also received their letters stating their job positions.

Not bad.

Dorian was pleased with the outcome.

Now, his academy was officially ready for business.

Very quickly, he glanced through his rewards, realizing that the reward descriptions were more detailed than before.

First, the system would provide each student with 3 standard school attire, including shoes.

The exorcism attire was black and very sleek, with a streamlined design.

It was fashionable yet comfortable and easy to stretch about when in battle.

The academy Logo was on the left chest side of the attire.

Dorian was very content with the attire.

There were a lot of pockets, both hidden and external, to place one's talismans or small gadgets in.

The students were assigned pure black attires, while the caretakers had grayish-silvery attire instead.

As for himself, he would wear whatever he damn well wanted... Though his choice was always bluish-black.

['Host, the uniforms are similar armor. It can shield off some underworld attacks by 10%. And, it's also fireproof against mortal fire.']

For the aspect of it being a shield, it only shielded off evil qi or underworld threats.

If a moral attacked them to shoot a bullet at them, they would die.

Dorian stared at the transparent screen before him, chuckling to himself.

How very convenient.

Dorian flicked the screen, looking at his next set of rewards.

A gravity Room... or should he say hall with a total of 5 separate rooms in it all effective for those in the True Qi realm.

.

As people on the road to automation, if they couldn't even stand up to a little hardship, then what were they here for?

Of course, the moment they broke through their mortal shell, the stronger they grew, the longer they would be able to survive without food.

With his strength, Dorian could go on for 15 years without tasting and wouldn't die.

He just enjoyed taking in food because of the taste and the need to fill his energy levels.

Again, even when in the mortal phase, once they start cultivating, they'll realize that they'll be able to go on for several days without feeling the tingling pain of hunger.

That was how Butler Sheng and the rest felt before breaking their Mortal shell.

Bottom line, start cultivating, and you'll be fine.

.

Anyway, things on the academy premises were different, strictly working on a merit system.

As they say, there was no food for the lazy.

1 pill and 5 silver coins biweekly were the bare student minimum once they came in as Handymen.

Only when they break through their mortal shell would they be allowed to move into the outer sect.

And of course, as outer sect members, they would get 2 pills and 10 silver coins every a total of 4 pills and 20 silver coins.

Again, this was the minimum for outer sect disciples. Only after breaking past the 9th Dan of the True Qi Realm could they head on to the inner sect.

That said, once they advance each step of the way, their weekly quota would increase as well.

After reaching the 2nd Dan, they would get 3 pills and 15 silver coins biweekly.

Once in the 3rd Dan, they'll get 4 pills, 1 elixir, and 20 coins biweekly.

Like so, the stronger they became, the more they amassed.

As for caretakers and future Elders, though their biweekly quotas were way higher than the students, they still followed the merit and ranking system if they wanted more wealth to purchase more ventilation resources.

Such was the way of the Academy.

.

Dorian quickly pushed the matter of the Gravity hall at the back of his head.

As for his last reward, of course, the system had allocated him with 1,000 Perfected Grade 1 and 2 texts/books on all sect professions, ranging from low-tier to high-tier ranks, just as promised.

['Host, the books are in the Academy Pavillion. And as requested, the duplicates have been sent into the library within the space.']

'Good.'

The countdown has begun!
