Zhou Yu, standing on the podium, seemed to notice their hushed conversation but didn't seem to care. She continued, "In my classes, I don't have many strict requirements. As long as you meet the course credit requirements, I have no problem with you not attending class."

Upon hearing this, a suppressed cheer erupted in the classroom, and many students showed expressions of delight. After all, the homeroom teacher's courses account for a very high percentage of the total credits; if they didn't have to attend classes regularly, it would be incredibly easy!

Looking at the excited students below the stage, Zhou Yu smiled faintly, then changed the subject: "However, don't get too excited yet. My credits aren't so easy to get."

The cheers stopped abruptly, and everyone held their breath, staring intently at the podium, waiting for her to announce the specific requirements.

"Listen carefully to what I'm about to say." Zhou Yu's gaze sharpened again. "There's only one way to earn my course credits. During your freshman year, each of you must complete one task—either start your own company, invest in a company with potential, or join a growing company."

She paused, then emphasized, "Regardless of which method you choose, the ultimate goal is the same—to achieve a profit of 500 million. As long as you achieve this goal, you will receive all the course credits."

As soon as he finished speaking, the classroom erupted in an uproar. "500 million? That's way too difficult!" "Starting a business and investing right after entering university? That's simply unrealistic!" "Is the professor joking?" The discussions were endless.

Zhou Yu raised her hand to quiet the classroom again. "I know this goal is a bit challenging for you, but it's also a way to train your abilities," she said calmly. "Also, if you need to take leave to handle related matters during the task, you can contact the class monitor directly. As long as it's a legitimate reason for leave, or leave related to the task I assigned, it will be approved immediately."

"Of course," she changed the subject, her tone carrying a hint of warning, "and don't even think about trying to trick me. Your parents sent you here hoping you would succeed. I don't want to see anyone trying to take shortcuts and waste their talents and their parents' expectations."

Jiang Wenxi sat in the corner, her face expressionless. For her, the profit target of 500 million wasn't too difficult. However, Ma Yun and Fu Siya beside her wore expressions of mixed anxiety and excitement, clearly not expecting the task to be so challenging.

As soon as Zhou Yu finished speaking, the classroom erupted in a cacophony of voices, almost lifting the roof off. "My god! Such a huge task on the very first day of school? 500 million in profit? Are they trying to train us to be business tycoons?" "Our homeroom teacher's class is half of our first-year credits; we have to complete it to get those credits, but this is way too difficult!" "Do you think we can ask our families for help? My family's company can easily allocate some projects; 500 million would be a piece of cake!" "Forget it. Professor Zhou's warning tone at the end clearly forbade us from taking shortcuts. We definitely can't let our families get involved!"

Fu Siya leaned closer to Jiang Wenxi, her brows furrowed, her tone tinged with anxiety: "Wenxi, what do you think? This task is just too outrageous! Our homeroom teacher's classes are already so demanding, but this profit target of 500 million is simply a pipe dream for us freshmen."

Jiang Wenxi raised her eyes, her tone relaxed and indifferent: "Then just go and earn that 500 million, won't that solve the problem?"

Fu Siya and Ma Yun exchanged bewildered glances upon hearing her words. Coming from Jiang Wenxi's mouth, these words carried an air of nonchalance, as if 500 million was just a small sum easily earned. Several classmates who had been eavesdropping couldn't help but mutter to themselves, "She makes it sound so easy, not worried at all. It's infuriating!" "Indeed, those with real ability aren't afraid of these things."

Ignoring the stares of those around her, Jiang Wenxi spoke to the system in her mind: "System, you were right this time. Looks like I might really have to start a company. Could it be that you manipulated my mentor to deliberately assign me this task?"

The system's mechanical voice immediately sounded, tinged with grievance: "How could that be? Host, we are legitimate systems, we would never do such a thing as illegal manipulation! This is purely a coincidence, it just so happens that this mission fits your development needs."

Jiang Wenxi scoffed lightly and stopped teasing the system. In the following lesson, Zhou Yu briefly explained the precautions and submission process for the task. Although the content was limited, every sentence hit the nail on the head, showing his extensive experience. Jiang Wenxi listened attentively.

After finally enduring until the bell rang, Zhou Yu packed up her lesson plan, added a reminder, "The task has a one-year time limit, so everyone should plan ahead as soon as possible," and then turned and left the classroom.

The students in the classroom immediately gathered in twos and threes to continue discussing the task. Fu Siya stretched and walked over to Jiang Wenxi, asking, "Wenxi, there are no more classes. Where should we eat? The school cafeteria or a restaurant outside?"

Just then, Ma Yun suddenly jumped out from the crowd, ran up to Jiang Wenxi, and said with a hint of helplessness in her voice, "Wenxi, you haven't forgotten that you added another business to your portfolio last night, have you?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenxi stopped in her tracks, looking completely bewildered: "What is it?"

Ma Yun rubbed her forehead, reminding her helplessly, "You forgot? You won Qiao Jie's 'Brilliant Galaxy' last night!"

Upon hearing the words "brilliant galaxy," Jiang Wenxi suddenly realized and slapped her forehead, "Oh, I really forgot about that." She had left in such a hurry after winning yesterday that she hadn't had time to follow up on anything else.

"That's right!" Ma Yun sighed. "You left too quickly last night. I was busy counting the chips and organizing the documents, and I didn't have time to give you the share transfer agreement."

Jiang Wenxi nodded, acknowledging her oversight: "It's alright, you can send the agreement to me when you have time, or I can pick it up when I have some free time."

"Great!" Marvin's eyes lit up, and he immediately suggested, "How about we go check out 'Brilliant Galaxy' today? It'll solve our food problem too."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenxi asked curiously, "Is 'Brilliant Galaxy' a hotel?"

"No, it's not like that." Ma Yun shook her head and explained in detail, "It's more like a comprehensive shopping mall or a high-end club."
