The logistics department.
In the school’s logistics building.
On Saturday, Wang Teng had some free time, so he came to the logistics building.
The first floor of the logistics building was responsible for the school’s internal miscellaneous affairs. You could also check your school credits and consult your questions here.
The second floor was the transaction area. The school had a credit exchanging system. You could use your school credits to exchange for dan pills, weapons, and many other resources.
The third floor was the mission receiving area.
Today, Wang Teng’s destination was the mission receiving area.
He had long heard that there was a mission system in the martial arts academy. Usually, you could only leave school after you had received a mission.
It was very troublesome for Wang Teng if he couldn’t get out of school.
Thus, immediately after he finished his first week of classes, he decided to take a look at the mission receiving area.
The students could earn school credits from doing missions. His ability was enough for him to complete 3-star missions.
Wang Teng went straight to the third floor. When he walked out of the lift, he saw a counter directly opposite the main door. There was school staff standing at the counter.
Behind the counter, there were rows and rows of machines that looked like ATMs. The machines were as tall as a person, and they were all automated.
At this moment, many students were operating the automated machines.
The staff at the counter glanced at Wang Teng and ignored him after that. However, some students recognized him. They were slightly stunned. Then, they understood.
Other freshmen might be unable to receive missions, but Wang Teng had more than enough ability to take missions.
Wang Teng disregarded everyone’s gazes. He was already used to the different kinds of looks people gave him. They couldn’t kill him anyway.
He walked to an empty automated machine.
These automated machines were really easy to use. The operations were direct and obvious.
He followed the steps written on the machine and took out his student card, pushing it into the card slot.
“Beep, student card!”
A few windows appeared on the screen.
Military mission, police mission, city protection bureau mission, the Xingwu Continent mission, school mission…
…
Wang Teng thought for a moment and clicked a window randomly.
City Protection Bureau mission:
Mission description: Help the staff of the City Protection Bureau to investigate the strange occurrences at Yanshui Village. There’s a suspected appearance of a snake-like high-level mutated beast. It’s very aggressive and is poisonous.

…
The City Protection Bureau missions were mostly about mutated beasts and star beasts, monitoring the country, and stopping any appearances that would threaten humans.
Police mission:
Mission description: Capturing and killing a 1-star wood-element soldier-level martial warrior who has escaped to Donghai. The criminal specializes in long blade skills, and he has five lives on his hands. He’s extremely cruel.
Requirement: At least 1-star soldier level peak.
Reward: 15 school credits
Mission description: Help the City Protection Bureau to protect the oldest daughter of the CEO of the Longhai Corporation from the cutthroat competition in the business world. Currently, we know that three martial warriors from overseas have sneaked into Donghai.
Requirement: 2-star soldier level.

…
School mission:
Mission description: Head to Mount Chunhua to pick ten Illusion Grass. This spiritual plant has illusion effects, and there will be high-level mutated beasts guarding them most of the time.
Requirement: 1-star soldier level
Reward: 10 school credits
…
Wang Teng looked at every window. There were all kinds of missions for the students to pick.
These missions came from many different official organizations. There were many martial warriors in each organization. However, there might be a shortage of manpower, or the organization couldn’t do the mission due to special reasons. Hence, they entrusted the students from the different schools with these missions.
Of course, one of the reasons was to groom the martial warriors in the schools.
After all, if the martial warriors in schools didn’t have any actual combat experience, they wouldn’t be able to get used to the environment after graduating. They wouldn’t be able to shoulder heavy responsibilities.
In his past life, many people had used the ivory tower as an analogy for schools. A student who just came out of school was like a piece of white paper. They didn’t know anything. Their experience was so low that it made people speechless. After entering the different organizations, they still had to undergo training at work.
Martial warriors were different from normal students.
No one would give them on-job training. When normal students made mistakes, they could change. However, once martial warriors made mistakes, they might lose their lives.
The consequences were huge.
Also, the missions had different difficulty levels. However, the lowest requirement was to be at the 1-star soldier level.
Wang Teng stuck out his tongue. Indeed, after entering university, the circle was different. Only a martial warrior was able to receive the missions.
Before he entered university, it was hard for him to even meet a martial warrior.
It had to be said that the ordinary people’s world was indeed very far from the world of martial warriors. What they understood was just the surface.
The martial warriors’ world that normal people had in mind wasn’t the real martial warriors’ world at all.
From these missions, it wasn’t hard to see that the normal people were able to live a peaceful life because there was a huge number of martial warriors taking care of all sorts of dangers in many unknown places.
…
The machine even introduced some information they needed to take note of.
For instance, they could receive the missions individually or as a team. However, once they accepted the missions, they couldn’t reveal any relevant information to other non-related people.
For instance, if they felt that they couldn’t finish the mission and gave up halfway, or failed the mission for all kinds of reasons, school credits would be taken away from them based on the punishment system.
…
Wang Teng took half an hour to study the missions. He then made his decision.
He wanted to take a short-term mission for this weekend. That way, he could leave school and take this chance to get used to the flow of the missions.
Wang Teng chose the school mission, the one that required him to head to Mount Chunhua to pick the Illusion Grass.
Mount Chunhua was a two hours journey from Donghai. One day was enough for him to travel back and forth.
As for the illusion effect of the Illusion Grass and the mutated beasts guarding them, Wang Teng didn’t care. With his ability, he was confident of any trouble heading his way.
Wang Teng accepted the mission and walked out of the logistics building. Then, he headed to the martial arts club.
Two days ago, the martial arts club had informed him to report to them.
Today was the agreed date.
He arrived at the martial arts club building and went straight to the fifth floor. He walked in front of a meeting room and pushed the door open.
The room was already filled with people. When they heard the sound of the door opening, everyone turned their heads.
“Wang Teng, you are the last to arrive!” Zhuang He, who was sitting in the host seat, smiled and said calmly.
“I’m sorry. This is my first time coming to the martial arts club, so I got lost.” Wang Teng started talking nonsense.
Everyone was speechless.
Who are you trying to fool!

“Alright, Wang Teng, take a seat. Since everyone is here, let me say a few simple words,” Zhuang He said.
Wang Teng nodded and sat down.
Zhuang He opened his mouth. “The president and vice presidents of the club are away on a mission. They won’t be back so soon. I’m the only one left, so I will be organizing the meeting of the new and old club members today. Let’s get to know each other.”
After everyone greeted each other, Zhuang He introduced the job of the martial arts club and its benefits. It was the same as what Chen Su and Yang Lin had told Wang Teng.
“That is all for today. Yang Lin, you can bring the juniors for a tour of our martial arts club building.” Then, Zhuang He looked at Wang Teng. “Junior Wang Teng, stay behind. Let’s talk for a while.”
The other new members couldn’t help but look at Wang Teng. Then, they followed Yang Lin for a tour.
Wang Teng remained in his seat. There were senior brothers and sisters all around him, looking at him with smiles on their faces. When more than ten pairs of eyes stared at him, his head turned numb.
“Seniors, I might have joined the martial arts club, but I won’t sell my body.”
