Chapter 53 - 53 The Price of the Awakening Potion Has Been Lowered

53 The Price of the Awakening Potion Has Been Lowered

The next morning, Ning Shi gathered all the teachers.

After a night of circulation, the Bei Shi Nation’s matter had already been spread all over the internet.

“Teachers, I’m sure everyone has heard about the insect disaster that Bei Shi nation encountered last night. The current situation is grim, so I would like to bring the freshmen tournament forward to today.”

“Everyone’s teaching plan for today will be suspended.”

The teachers in the meeting room whispered, clearly surprised by Ning Shi’s urgency, but no one stood up to object.

Ning Shi’s prestige as the principal was still very high.

“The reason why the competition is brought forward is that I’ll take the top three students as my disciples and teach them the extreme body forging method to strengthen their physique.”

“This training method is very dangerous. My energy is limited and I can’t teach it to too many people.”

“Teacher Hao Meng will work with me to improve the body forging method as I teach it to my disciples. This is so that the danger of the technique is reduced.”

“When the time comes, we would also teach the improved version of the cultivation technique to all the teachers present.”

“This is related to everyone’s future, so I hope that everyone will uphold justice and select the true strength-type geniuses.”

“Time is limited. Only students with a punching strength of 750 kg and above can sign up for this competition. I’ve seen the results of the admission test, and there are about 200 students who have met the requirements.”

“Everyone, organize another test for the students today. The results will be the deciding factor.”

“There will be four rounds of competition today to determine the top 16. Tomorrow, there will be another four rounds of competition, with the third and fourth place competing together.”

Ning Shi explained his arrangements in one breath. The teachers all looked excited.

Almost all of these teachers were masters. They were willing to come here to teach not only because they wanted to contribute to the development of strength-type awakeners, but also because they hoped to learn a thing or two from Ning Shi.

Now that they heard that Ning Shi was willing to impart cultivation methods, these people were all jubilant and worked with great enthusiasm.

In just two hours, all the students’ test results were out. A total of 249 people met the conditions for the competition.

The drawing of lots was carried out, and some people would get a bye for the first few rounds. It could only be said that luck was also a part of one’s strength.

The school’s sports field was divided into eight competition grounds. The competition would officially begin at 1 pm that day.

Eight matches were held at the same time.

As these students had just entered the school, many of them had not mastered many fighting techniques, so they fought in a straightforward manner.

Some of the students were still afraid and didn’t dare to attack.

This kind of behavior was understandable. After all, they had been educated to be civilized and polite in the past. Moreover, they had never received long-term combat training. It was indeed not easy for them to fight.

Fortunately, Ning Shi had set a rule that if the match had not been decided after 20 minutes, both sides would be considered to have lost, so each match was carried out very quickly.

Basically, they all ended the battle within 10 minutes.

At 4:00 p.m., The first round of the competition was over. After half an hour of rest, the next round would begin at 4:30 p.m.

Ning Shi was at the competition venue the entire time, observing if there were any more talented seedlings.

Soon, he found a very interesting pair.

A “brawny man” nearly two meters tall with a little girl less than 1.4 meters standing next to him. The contrast was so great that Ning Shi couldn’t help but notice.

Ning Shi subconsciously paid attention to the first round of the competition between these two people.

Neither of them had any martial arts foundation, but the little girl was very smart. After the teacher announced the start of the match, she took advantage of her opponent’s inattention and punched him.

She was small in size, so she punched her opponent’s leg. Her opponent lost his fighting strength on the spot and admitted defeat.

On the other hand, the big guy was extremely simple and honest. He insisted on waiting for his opponent to make the first move. After taking a punch from his opponent, he finally took the initiative and kicked his opponent over.

The two of them had a good relationship and had been standing together to observe their opponents after the match.

Ning Shi had asked the teacher for information on the two.

The little girl’s name was Luo Yao, and she was 17 years old this year. Looking at her figure, she didn’t look her age at all.

Meanwhile, the boy’s name was Jiang Bichao, and he was 15 years old.

Despite their sizes, Luo Yao was older than Jiang Bichao and the two of them came from the same county.

Hong’an County, which was under Huzhou of Changwu City.

The Yunmeng Kingdom’s officially recognized Jiangjun County had produced many generals and martyrs. It was an extremely famous County City of Heroes.

Ning Shi discovered that although most of the students did not know how to fight, some of them had a strong martial arts foundation.

Such students had a huge advantage in a fight and would often win.

In fact, it might be fairer to hold the competition a month after the new students entered the school.

However, time waits for no man.

The good thing was that there would be three competitions every semester. As long as one was truly talented and willing to work hard, some students would always stand out.

After watching the first round of the competition, Ning Shi had a general impression of the participating students, so he no longer stared at them.

As it was the school’s first major competition, almost all the students had come to watch. The field was either filled with people who were watching the matches while standing or those sitting on the steps. Students were everywhere.

Ning Shi originally wanted to find a step to sit down but realized that there was no place, so he returned to the logistics office and found a chair to sit down.

He had been busy with the competition today and didn’t have time to look at his phone.

Ning Shi picked up his phone and entered the game first, finding that the avatar’s idle behavior was normal.

The city walls of Duohuang City were gradually being built, and the avatar brought the servant army to the deserted northern plains to farm monsters, on one hand, to gain experience, and on the other hand, to collect more magic cores.

Once the magic core cannons were used, the consumption of magic cores would be huge.

There was no problem with the game, so Ning Shi went online to check the news related to the Bei Shi Nation.

It had been almost 20 hours since the incident last night. The defense line organized by the Bei Shi Nation was completely useless, and the insect swarm was increasing in number.

The Bei Shi Nation was already in complete chaos. The government was completely paralyzed, and the army only existed in name.

Those who had the ability had long fled the country by means of transportation.

Those who could only travel slowly were more miserable.

Looking at the news, several major roads of the Bei Shi Nation had been completely blocked, and a large number of private cars were stuck on the road.

The desperate crowd wantonly smashed, plundered, and shot people in the city.

The flames were burning everywhere, the gunshots never stopped, the screams and cries of humans, the civilization of the city were completely destroyed, and under the extreme disaster, barbarity overwhelmed everything.

It was rare for Yunmeng Nation to not ban these cruel and bloody videos from spreading on the internet.

The government only issued an announcement, briefly introducing the insect disaster and the situation at the border, and repeatedly emphasized that they had the confidence to maintain the stability of the country and the safety of the people.

At the same time, the officials released some videos of the army fighting the insects.

Some of the netizens who had been clamoring on the internet fell silent after seeing the video of the soldiers fighting bravely without fear.

However, there were still some anti-intellectual remarks circulating on the internet.

“The insect disaster is God’s punishment for the awakeners. As long as we don’t take the awakening potion and drive the awakeners out of the country, the insect disaster will disappear!”

“The awakeners must have committed a crime in the insect world and provoked a swarm of insects. That’s why the insect disaster has appeared!”

“Resist the awakening potion and be a pure human!”

He didn’t know if these people had received money from overseas or if they were really stupid.

However, there was still a portion of people who made such comments.

The jealousy and hatred of the ordinary people towards the awakeners had always existed. Such remarks had expanded the opposition.

Apart from those who harbored resentment, most of the people from Yunmeng were in a state of disbelief.

Many people saw the news and could not believe it was true.

In Ning Shi’s classmate group, unread messages +99.

“When I woke up, the news of the insect disaster was overwhelming. I felt like I had returned from civilization to the wilderness.” Attached to the message was an image of a weak, helpless, and pitiful person.

“Students, is there anyone who can analyze if the insects will cross the ocean to see us? Doge.jpg.”

“I’m envious of the students who can take the awakening potion. I can’t afford it at 500000 a bottle.”

“I feel like I don’t need to take out a loan to buy a house in the future. I can just take out a loan to buy the potion. Society is in chaos. Houses can no longer bring me a sense of security. Only superpowers can.”

The price of the awakening potion had not dropped yet, but Ning Shi felt that it would soon.

Whether it was the public’s desire for superpowers or the ordinary people’s jealousy of the awakeners, this wave of emotions was in place.

As expected, at 7 p.m., When the third round of the student competition began, the officials announced the price reduction on all major media platforms.

In addition to announcing that the price of the awakening potion had dropped from 500000 per bottle to 500, the officials had also given a detailed guide to the consumption of the potion.

What should be done before taking the potion, what group of people were prohibited from taking the potion, how many times the potion could be taken, and the interval period between taking the medicine were all listed in detail.

The purchase of the awakening potion was even included in the National Health Insurance.

The officials’ actions won the hearts of the people.

“I’m grateful to the country and to Scientist H for letting me have a taste of superpowers.”

These were the words of a middle-aged man who had taken the awakening potion.

“Although I didn’t succeed in awakening the first time I took the potion, I still have at least 9 chances. I believe in myself and I will definitely succeed!”

This was a confession of an ordinary person.

“From now on, I’m going to quit sex. I’m going to exercise. I heard that the better the body, the higher the probability of awakening.”

The nonsense of a civilian scientist.

In any case, in Yunmeng Kingdom, the fear brought about by the insect disaster had been washed away by a lot.

Sometimes, people were not afraid of disaster, but they were more afraid of the lack of hope.

Now that there was a sufficient supply of the awakening potion, everyone had the opportunity to become an Awakener. Under such an excited mood, the insect plague did not seem to be that scary anymore.

Although most people did not know if they could fight against the insects after becoming awakeners, to the current them, it was most important to have hope.

It was truly a time of great suffering abroad, but it was peaceful at home.

At 9 p.m., the day’s matches were all over, and the top 16 had been decided.

Ning Shi took a look at the list. Luo Yao and Jiang Bichao had both entered the top 16.

He would have disciples starting tomorrow.

According to the traditional saying in the martial arts world, a teacher for a day was a father for life. In ancient times, the relationship between master and disciple was even closer than that between father and son.

Of course, in modern society, this kind of situation was almost non-existent.

However, now that everyone had awakened, everything seemed to have returned to the past.
