Qin Yan's face was full of bitterness and helplessness, and he actually had a decadent attitude.
This is completely different from his previous temperament in Bailong County.
Han Feng couldn't help but wonder, could it be that this kid couldn't withstand the blows and wanted to retreat after being bullied a few times?
After a brief inquiry, Han Feng found out.
The reason why Qin Yan is so decadent is all because of three words.
"Points of Merit".
Han Feng couldn't help but wonder.
"Are merit points important? Don't we junior disciples receive ten merit points every month?"
Qin Yan smiled bitterly.
"Oh, let's do it this way. You'll find out after you go out with me for a while."
Han Feng was suspicious, but followed Qin Yan out of the dormitory.
Immediately, the two of them started wandering around the front mountain.
It was different from the previous one where the disciple at the registration office led Han Feng to visit the academy like a quick tour.
Qin Yan took Han Feng directly to the Yunde Hall, which was responsible for "merit point redemption", and looked at the academy's merit point redemption catalog.
After just one glance, Han Feng was dumbfounded.
Because according to the redemption catalog, the cheapest elixir starts at fifty merit points.
Spirit weapons, talismans, formations... and other items are almost all worth less than this number.
More importantly, these items can only be redeemed with merit points.
According to the merit point distribution standards for junior disciples, if Han Feng wanted to redeem a low-level elixir, even if he didn't spend a single merit point, he would have to accumulate it for about half a year.
Han Feng thought this was outrageous enough, but Qin Yan also told him.
Not only does it cost merit points to exchange things, but every junior disciple also has to pay an "accommodation fee" of two merit points every month.
There are also college disciple costumes, a set worth two merit points, which will also be deducted from the token.
In addition, even when eating, if you want to eat monster meat that is beneficial to the spiritual warrior's practice, you have to spend merit points to buy it.
Han Feng was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that even food, clothing, housing and transportation in Tiannan College cost merit points.
And Qin Yan said again.
"These are just the most basic consumption. Tiannan College also has many special places that are beneficial to cultivation and can increase the speed of cultivation.
If you want to enter it, you need to spend a lot of merit points.
Sometimes, tutors from Back Mountain College will come to Qianshan to give classes. If junior and intermediate disciples want to attend classes, they must spend merit points to attend classes. "
When Han Feng heard this, he was stunned for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"Holy crap, is it so dark!?"
After listening to Qin Yan's introduction, Han Feng felt that these ten merit points were simply not enough to squeeze between his teeth.
Receiving Han Feng's sympathy, Qin Yan couldn't help but recount his bitter experience in the academy.
Although he only stayed at Tiannan College for more than ten days, he had spent all his merit points ten days ago.
Now I can only rely on free food from the college to survive.
He couldn't even think about any other consumption.
After hearing this, Han Feng couldn't help but wonder.
"Then why don't you ask Miss Qin for help? She is an intermediate disciple and is protected by a mentor. She should be very wealthy."
Qin Yan shook his head with determination.
"Humph, a real man must be self-reliant and support himself, so how can you ask for..."
Qin Yan wanted to say some tough words, but after seeing Han Feng's contemptuous eyes, he finally told the truth.
"I asked someone to inquire about Feng Qing. I heard that she went on a mission and has not yet returned to the academy."
Han Feng nodded and asked again.
"Then there's no way to earn merit points in the academy?"
Qin Yan nodded.
"Yes, students can take on tasks at the "Shenglin Hall" and complete the tasks to receive merit point rewards.
You can also go to the handyman courtyard and work as a temporary handyman disciple to earn some merit points. "
Han Feng couldn't help but wonder.
"Then why don't you take the mission?"
Qin Yan said with a bitter face.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's that the difficulty of those tasks is too high. With my strength, it is simply difficult to complete them.
If I cannot complete the task within the time limit, not only will I not be able to get the reward, but I will also have to lose merit points. How can I dare to accept it? "
"Then you can work as a handyman in the handyman's yard."
Qin Yan said firmly.
“How can a man be a handyman, groveling and being ordered around by others?
Besides, not to mention the hard work of the handyman disciples, the merit points earned are too few, so I don’t want to go! "
Hearing this, Han Feng nodded.
"It seems there is a reason why you are so poor."
At this moment, Han Feng also roughly understood the characteristics of merit points.
In terms of value, in Yunde Hall, one merit point can be exchanged for five spiritual stones, which does not seem to be too precious.
However, Tiannan College cannot use spiritual stones to purchase merit points, and everything can only be consumed with merit points.
Therefore, merit points have almost replaced the function of currency and are the basis for the cultivation and life of college disciples.
In Tiannan College, if you don't have merit points, you won't be able to survive at all.
As for junior disciples, they only have ten merit points per month, which is not enough for normal expenses.
If he can't find a way to get more merit points, he will probably end up like Qin Yan, a miserable "moonlight tribe".
Han Feng shook his head and said.
"Hey... forget it, don't think so much now, let's go eat first."
Although Qin Yan's stomach was growling with hunger at the moment, he couldn't help but shudder when he heard the word "eat".
In the end, he took Han Feng to the Qianshan cafeteria.
It is quite similar to the university cafeteria in Han Feng's previous life. The college cafeteria is divided into two floors.
The lower floor is a free dining area, while the food on the upper floor needs to be purchased with merit points.
With a penniless pauper and not much "surplus food" of his own, Han Feng naturally chose to eat a "free lunch".
However, Han Feng was stunned on the spot when he just glanced at the pile of "white flour steamed buns" like a mountain in the center of the canteen on the first floor.
I looked around and saw that except for these steamed buns, there was nothing else to eat on the first floor of the cafeteria.
At this moment, a group of young men and women wearing junior disciple uniforms were surrounding the pile of steamed buns, with complex expressions on each of their faces.
A thin young man who looked good-looking and very hungry, hesitated for a moment, suddenly grabbed a piece of steamed bun and bit it down hard.
After devouring a few mouthfuls, his face turned pale.
"vomit……!"
The young man suddenly felt nauseated, but he resolutely continued to swallow the buns, swallowing back the vomiting sensation.
In addition to the young man, there were many men and women around him who were in the same state as this person.
They are all eating and vomiting, and the sounds they make are like a group of "walking zombies!"
"Well……"
I heard the sounds of vomiting and swallowing coming and going.
Han Feng couldn't help but frown, and felt a little nauseous.
He looked at Qin Yandao on the side.
"What happened to them?"
But Qin Yan's face turned pale at this moment, looking at the piled "Steamed Bun Mountain", he showed an expression that was the same as that of the young man before, and said numbly.
"How would it feel if you tried eating this three meals a day for ten days in a row?
Do you want to vomit? It doesn't exist because you are very hungry...! "
With that said, Qin Yan walked towards Mantou Mountain as if possessed by a demon.
Han Feng shivered cleverly, and from the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar graceful figure standing not far away.
The white standard robe of the college could not cover up her legs, which were as long and smooth as white jade.
It turned out to be Wu Yufeng. Standing in the crowd at this moment, Wu Yufeng still looked outstanding in appearance, especially her beautiful legs, which were not too eye-catching.
However, Han Feng discovered that Wu Yufeng's pretty face was obviously a little pale at this moment.
She stood on the periphery of the crowd, looking at the pile of steamed buns from a distance, with a pair of jade hands intertwined in front of her, showing her inner peace and entanglement.
As if she felt someone was looking at her, Wu Yufeng turned around and saw Han Feng.
She was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but look surprised.
"Han Feng!"
Wu Yufeng came to Han Feng in a few steps and said curiously.
"when did you come?"
"I just arrived today." Han Feng glanced at the pile of steamed buns.
"You...are here to eat too?"
When Wu Yufeng heard this, a flash of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly shook her head.
"I...I'm not just passing by here, I'm not hungry at all."
The words just fell.
"Gu Gu Gu Gu..."
Wu Yufeng's stomach made a strong protest.
In an instant, Wu Yufeng's slightly pale complexion turned red with embarrassment.
"Why……"
Han Feng sighed, feeling pity for Qin Yan and Wu Yufeng.
In Bailong County, the two of them were both proud men of heaven, living a life like a master.
But when he arrived at Tiannan College, he couldn't even afford a normal meal.
Han Feng simply waved his hand boldly and said.
"Okay, today is my first day here. I invite you to have a big meal on the second floor!"
