My buildings have attributes

The next day, when Chen Ling got up, Cang Ming reported that a total of 1788 people had applied to resign the previous day.

Most of these people are senior professors who are not very capable, and most of their achievements are done by themselves.

Therefore, they simply couldn't stand Chen Ling's rules.

Rather than staying and making a fool of myself, I'd rather leave early and find another university to coast through.

On the contrary, most of the young people, those energetic and ambitious young teaching assistants, chose to stay. They could never get research funding at ordinary universities, and they could only become professors by gaining seniority. But here, they could take a chance.

After getting rid of the pests, everyone started busying themselves with the issues of the start of the school year.

As for the problems of the main departments, Chen Ling did not interfere, but he dealt with the management of his subordinate companies severely, purging a number of people.

Chen Ling finally felt relieved.

Three days later, students from all over the country set foot on the land of Mo City, only to arrive at the Jixia Academy with bewildered expressions.

The sights and experiences they encountered along the way had a profound impact on them.

The entire city of Mexico doesn't resemble an ordinary city at all; rather, it's more like a city transformed from a special product of the Cold War era.

Moreover, this city is very strange. You can see metal gears and similar things everywhere. Even the elevator doors are mechanical structures, not ordinary electric doors.

All of this surprised everyone.

Upon arriving at the Jixia Academy, they were amazed by the environment of the new school.

The luxuriously decorated dormitory, with six people living in 120 square meters, and even having its own kitchen and swimming pool, was beyond their imagination.

Not to mention that after enrollment, the school gave each of them an electronic wristwatch.

According to the school, this is their student ID, which is very important.

With its top-tier quality, water and dust resistant design, seamless network connectivity, and built-in software, this is practically the school of the future.

Wei Ding, a freshman, changed schools after only half a semester.

So this time, coming to Jixia Academy was like enrolling again, so I wandered around the academy with great curiosity.

"Ding! You have a new email. Please check it."

Wei Ding opened the email on his wristwatch, linked it to his phone, and began reading the email content.

"Admission Notice: Within the Jixia Academy, all items can only be exchanged for academic credits and cannot be purchased with money. From the moment you step into the Jixia Academy, money becomes worthless."

Each semester, students are guaranteed at least 500 credits. These 500 credits can be used to purchase necessities on campus, eat in the cafeteria, buy items from the school's online store, seek private tutoring from teachers, redeem library reading time, lab usage time, supercomputer usage time, and various experimental materials...

Within the college, you are the only one with academic credits, and as long as you don't break the law, you can do whatever you want.

The credit acquisition rules are as follows: credits are earned through exams, published papers, inventions, assisting supervisors with experiments, etc.

After reading the email, Wei Ding felt terrible.

Putting everything else aside, just from the credit acquisition rules, he could see the school's deep-seated malice towards underachieving students.

However, he was quite interested in the fact that the credits could be used to buy anything.

He opened the academy's built-in app store to see what items were available for sale.

After reading it, he was dumbfounded.

"Holy crap... They even sell large passenger planes, damn it... 3.5 million credits, who can afford that?"

Chapter 113 The Magical Campus

The mall does indeed sell everything; you can even buy a private jet if you have enough academic credits.

The problem is, nobody can afford it.

Wei Ding looked at it for a while, then closed the online store and prepared to go eat.

Upon arriving at the cafeteria, Wei Ding saw two entrances, one marked "free" and the other marked "paid".

"You can eat for free in this cafeteria?" Wei Ding was a little confused.

Upon entering the free cafeteria, Wei Ding found it empty. He went to the window and asked the staff, "Auntie, is eating here free?"

"Yes, but the meals here are just nutritious and taste terrible, but they don't cost you any credits."

However, there's one thing: although the nutritious meals don't cost credits, you must finish them and not waste them, otherwise you'll lose 10 credits," said the cafeteria worker.

"Is it hard to eat?" Wei Ding asked curiously.

"Hmm, you can try it, give it a shot."

The aunt inside took a small spoon and scooped a spoonful of mashed potato-like nutritious meal for Wei Ding.

"Waaah..."

Wei Ding almost vomited after finishing his meal.

How to describe the taste? It's not disgusting, but it's very difficult to swallow. It's as if you've lost your sense of taste, and you don't even know what you're eating.

"Young man, would you like one? Don't think it tastes bad; this kind of nutritious meal is very good for your health."

"No, thank you, goodbye."

Wei Ding didn't even look back; he simply turned and left.

Just kidding, who could possibly eat this kind of nutritious meal?

Turning around, I arrived at the paid cafeteria, which was much more comfortable.

It has all the major Chinese cuisines plus Western food, even barbecue skewers, it's practically a food city.

The craziest thing was that Wei Ding saw a wine cabinet in a corner, with red and white wines on it, including the legendary 82 Lafite.

After wandering around, Wei Ding returned to the home-style food section and obediently ordered a rice bowl, which cost 0.4 credits. He then bought a bottle of water, which cost 0.1 credits.

In other words, a meal costs 0.5 credits and is quite good.

Back in the dorm, Wei Ding saw several of his roommates playing games on a 60-inch TV. The Xbox console on the TV cabinet was clearly just unpacked.

"You're back, wanna hang out?" my roommate asked.

"No, I've taken a walk around, so I'm going back to my room to rest," Wei Ding said, shaking his head.

Back in his room, Wei Ding took out his phone and clicked on the links in the email. Many of these links contained information about students and the academy, which was quite tedious and not many people read it.

But Wei Ding was a rather special kind of person, so he opened it and took a look.

"The school library doesn't allow two men or two women to enter together. You either have to go in alone or with one man and one woman. What kind of weird rule is this?" Wei Ding was completely dumbfounded after seeing the rules in the student handbook.

Does the school encourage dating?

Why not let two men and two women go in?

Wei Ding couldn't figure it out, so after thinking for a while, he continued reading.

"You can fish in the school lake, but you're not allowed to use bait, and you get a 100-credit reward for catching a fish?"

"Squatting in the toilets in the teaching building for more than 15 minutes is not allowed. If you exceed this time limit, you will bear the consequences."

"Men are not encouraged to enter the gym on the third floor; otherwise, they will bear the consequences."

"Purple swimsuits are not allowed in the swimming pool. We will not be responsible for any drownings caused by wearing them."

"Single people entering Experiment Building 1 receive a buff, while single people entering Experiment Building 5 face life-threatening danger?"

"Wearing clothes according to the colors of the rainbow seven days a week might bring a special surprise?"

After reading the contents of the trainee instructions, Wei Ding was completely dumbfounded. What kind of bizarre rules were these?

Moreover, some regulations are not explicitly prohibited; you can violate them, but you will bear the consequences yourself.

Such regulations are unheard of, and some of them are simply absurd.

Wei Ding spent his first night in this inexplicable state.

The next day, a group of first- and second-year students came to the school's No. 3 playground, which is also the largest playground in the school, to participate in the opening ceremony.

Why only freshmen and sophomores? Because Chen Ling didn't want students from other grades at all.

Freshmen and sophomores still have some potential for development, but juniors and seniors have already wasted three or four years. Even if they come here for abnormal consumption, it won't change their nature. So Chen Ling didn't want them at all. As for graduate students and doctoral students, forget it, it's better to train them himself.

Sixty thousand students stood on the playground, and faculty and leaders from various colleges were also in place. Chen Ling was the last to step onto the podium to give a speech.

Many students know Chen Ling, after all, Chen Ling is also a king on the Internet.

However, before the students could get excited, the host began to speak after seeing Chen Ling take his seat.

There wasn't a long speech; it was just a brief overview of the school's situation, a reiteration of discipline, and a call for students to study hard.

"Next, please welcome Principal Chen Ling of Jixia Academy to give a speech."

After the host finished speaking, Chen Ling got up and walked forward.

"Many of my classmates know me, but of course there are some who don't. Let me introduce myself here."

My name is Chen Ling, and I am the chairman of the Chaoshen Group. The entire Mo City, including the Jixia Academy, was built by Chaoshen Company, so I am the principal of this school.

I won't go on and on; I just want to tell you that the place you're in right now, this school, is amazing.

As for what makes it so magical, you can find out for yourselves at your own pace. As a friendly reminder, you should all take a look at the student handbook.

Of course, it's okay not to watch it. Sometimes, experiencing it firsthand is the most important thing. Some experiences are pleasant surprises, while others are frightening.

Coming to this school is both an opportunity and a challenge for you. This is no joke, and you will gradually understand as time goes by.

Our school doesn't have any special rules, even when it comes to studying. You can study if you want, or not if you don't. No one will force you.

However, if you don't study, you won't get credits, so you can only eat free nutritious meals in the cafeteria. This needs to be made clear first: money is useless at school.

Want to eat well, drink well, or even buy nice things? It's simple, all you need are academic credits.

At the same time, I want to tell you some news: our school's graduation certificates are divided into many levels, with E being the lowest and SSS being the highest.

You don't need to understand the reason for this graduation certificate grading system now. You just need to know that only students who achieve an A grade or higher in their graduation exams are eligible to apply for graduate studies at this university.

I know that many of you go to college wanting to play games and date, not to study hard or anything like that.

You can achieve this at other universities, but here... well, I don't think someone who can only eat nutritious meals can find a girlfriend.

We are an engineering college, and you can tell the male-to-female ratio just by looking around.

So, take girlfriends and such less seriously.
