Chapter 70: My training with Angela (1)
I continued with the same routine of grinding the dungeons for two more days and accumulated a lot of points. These would be useful for me in the next few days, but I believe that they would soon disappear, just as if they were never present.
The resources cost a lot and high tier resources cost much more. The pitiful points that I earned in these three days, were not sufficient enough for me as I have reached Tier-4 and my attributes are very high, even the ones that have nothing to do with my profession.
To further increase my ttribute value, I need rich food and that would cost a lot of points. So, every minute of free time had to be spent in the dungeon and earn as many points as I could.
Moreover, compared to outside items sold here are a bit cheaper. This was done so that talented but poor students would have a chance to use these resources and quickly improve themselves.
There are no restrictions on the items brought by the students but if it was found that they sold those items outside for gold, then they would be punished accordingly. The wealth would come and go, and that depends on whether we have the strength to keep that wealth with us.
So, what everyone should strive for was strength and then wealth, or else it would be disastrous to them in the future.
Anyway, I need many resources that the academy is selling and to get my hands on them, I need those points.
Points can be earned through doing tasks or clearing the dungeons and selling those drops that I can collect from the dungeon. There was almost nothing else that I could do in order to gain those points, at least at this time.
There would be a monthly evaluation that determines the number of points awarded to a student. Of course, the points awarded would according to the class that they were.
I am in Class 1-A, so if I get the top rank, I will get a lot more points when compared to the top rank of other classes. From what I heard, even the lowest rank from class 1-A would get far more points than the topper from 1-F.
This is how it is and if you want to change that, you have to improve and upgrade your class. This would be the only way one can increase their share of resources.
Though a lot of points were awarded in these evaluations, they can't be compared to the half-year evaluation. Though it is said to be half a year, it was done after five months. A month after that would be the holidays. This remains the same for the five years in the academy.
This half-year evaluation is also where the students would be reshuffled and the points awarded would be according to the new places.
This is like a big vicious cycle.
The only way to earn points is through strength and for strength one has to have enough resources. These resources can only be obtained if you have wealth and that wealth can be gained if you have strength.
Though the academy has replaced the wealth with points and decreased the cost of the resources, the rich kids have better chances of gaining those points quickly as they would have a good foundation to do so.
Unless your luck is good enough to break the chains of poverty, or it would take generations to get out of this issue.
So I am happy that I was born in a noble house. Due to that, I have a good foundation. I can reach higher levels of power easily and faster than many other students in the kingdom.
With that foundation, I can easily grind the dungeons and get points faster. Though the consumption would be very high, earning them would not be low either.
So I had to constantly enter and clean the dungeon, well, my clone had to every day whenever I found some free time. This would be my schedule, this year.
Today is not that day though. I have to stop the grinding for today as today is the day that my training with Angela starts.
So I had to skip the dungeon grinding for this day. Usually, my clone would be in the dungeon and I would be in my quarters training. It was very efficient. There is a breakthrough in my skill levels.
Though Angela's class would break my rhythm, it was necessary. I can't just be happy with the few skills that I have. Though it can be considered as many, there are a lot of flaws in my attacks and defense, that would make me vulnerable.
I need to close those flaws.
Since I have clones, I can easily improve the levels of those skills. So there is no need to worry on that front.
Moreover, having an experienced person as a person teacher would yield good results, especially when that teacher is hot.

When I woke up, I got ready and then had breakfast. After that, I walked to the place that Angela mentioned before to my clone.
She gave me instructions on how to reach the place, so it wasn't hard to find the place.
When I entered the room, I was surprised. This was because this place is a training facility but it was different. It has much more advanced equipment and tools than what we have in the training rooms.
I believe that this is a faculty training room. Though they are teaching, they still need to be fit if there is a need for mobilization or if there is a monster tide.
When I entered the room, there was only person training. I can easily guess that it is Angela. With my improved INT, it became easy for me to remember many things.
I walked up to her and was about to greet her, "Ah, you are right on time", a sweet voice greeted me instead.
