In the corridor on the second floor of the dormitory, the girl looked at Richard seductively: "Come on, help me clean the room, I won't regret it." ”

"Not interested. Richard said very directly.

Girl: "......"

Richard turned and walked downstairs, emptied the sewage, and walked up again.

The girl was still standing in the same place in the hallway, pinching her waist and looking angry.

Richard ignored it, walked straight into the room, and slammed the door shut.

Girl: "......" At this moment, she secretly said in her heart: Count you ruthless, you wait!

......

Later.

Richard was in his room packing his belongings and planning something when there was a knock on the door.

"Bang bang bang!"

Richard raised his eyebrows, walked to the door, opened the door, and saw the girl he had met before, standing outside leaning against the door frame, holding two pieces of papyrus in her hands.

"What for?"

"The academy has announced the class schedule for this semester, I see that you are new here, do a good deed, so I will take a copy for you and give it to you!" said the girl, handing over a piece of papyrus in her hand, as if to point to it, "I like to help people, unlike some hateful people who don't even help a little." ”

Richard shrugged his shoulders, didn't say much, took the papyrus from the girl's hand and quickly swept it.

I saw that on the papyrus scroll was a table with dense words written in it.

At the top of the line is: Details of the latest course fees at Whitestone Tower Academy.

......

The list lists countless courses, but they can be broadly divided into two: compulsory and elective—the way the White Rock Tower is taught is not like a compulsory school, but in Richard's view, more like a university on the modern earth.

Among them, the compulsory courses are free and must be taken by students. But correspondingly, there is not much gold content, just to popularize some basic knowledge, and these knowledge can be consulted in the library of the college.

Electives are fee-based, taught by each wizard with a name, and teach them the knowledge or spells they are more proficient in. Each student can choose to study according to their own situation. Theoretically, as long as there is enough time, as long as there is enough money, then it is possible to study all the lessons taught by wizards. This is the dream of many good scholars, but most of them are limited to money, especially auditors.

In the White Stone Tower, the elite students with gold nameplates, the regular students with silver nameplates, and the auditors with black nameplates are three different classes. And this class gap is extremely obvious in the three aspects of course learning: the amount of free classes, course fees, and wizard treatment.

The free course quota is a subsidy for students to study courses at White Rock Tower Academy, which allows students to take some courses for free.

Generally speaking, this amount for elite students is much higher than that for regular students. And the auditors, well, sorry, no—no matter which course you want to take, you have to pay for it.

And even if you pay for it, the price of the same course is not the same for the three types of students. Elite students will have discounts, which can reach 5% or even 4% off, and regular students can also get 7 or 8% off. As for the auditors, well, it's good not to give you a price increase.

The wizards who teach the course treat the three types of students differently.

Generally speaking, elite students will be valued by many wizards, and in the course, they will naturally be carefully taught, and even small stoves will be opened. Formal students, decent, ask questions, the teacher will choose whether to answer according to the mood. As for the auditors......

What is the meaning of an auditor? A side word, a listening word, means that although you pay the most fees, you can only sit in the corner next to you and listen obediently - you are not allowed to speak, you are not allowed to ask questions, just like the air, you are not allowed to affect anyone. If something is wrong, or the teacher is in a bad mood and thinks that you are doing something wrong, he can find a reason to kick you out, and you can't even refute it.

And for audit students, being "given special treatment" by wizards in elective courses is actually nothing, because ...... Most people simply don't have electives to take.

Most of the time in the academy, the auditors are trying to earn some crystals to make a living—nothing is free inside and outside the academy, and if you want to survive, you have to work.

In Richard's view, auditors are more of a cheap labor force than students, and the college is clearly taking advantage of them.

But even if most auditors knew this, they would be willingly taken advantage of, because they would like to take the 1 in 100 or 1 in 1,000 chance to become a real wizard, and then it will be a sea change. In their eyes, persistence is victory, and maybe in the next tomorrow, success will come.

But...... The vast majority of audit students were eliminated on the night before the dawn of success - Baishi Tower Academy has been eliminating students, especially audit students, and the proportion of those who have been eliminated is particularly large. However, the White Rock Tower Academy is not worried about anything, because if a batch is eliminated, there will be new auditors to be added, and there will be a steady stream.

This is the White Rock Tower, and this is the harsh reality.

Richard thought about these things as he skimmed through the class schedule.

The girl at the door watched Richard browse for a long time, thought she had guessed something, and said loudly: "Hey, you have been watching for so long, do you have no money, and you can't find a course to take?" I can help you!"

"Huh?" Richard looked up at the girl. Naturally, he is not without money, and the crystal coins obtained after killing the mysterious wizard in the Space Iron Ring are enough to live in the White Stone Tower Academy for a long time, but he is curious about the girl's intentions.

The girl spoke: "I can find you a chance to make money - clean my room and I will pay you." How's that, reasonable, right?"

"Hmm......" Richard raised his eyebrows, not answering immediately.
