The Retired Hero is an Extra

Strictly speaking, studts would always find loopholes.For example, some rich young masters might promise befits to their families.

Or if those earning it and in higher ranks used their money to exchange for YP, selling it ev higher than 00 Solaris Marks.

Solaris Marks was the currcy used for all kinds of transactions betwe common folks and hunters alike.

In the Solarnelle Empire, it was the currcy ev accepted amongst the elves and dwarves after various s of negotiations.

Anyways, 00 Solaris Marks was nothing for any rich noble.

Heck, ev Jash had a million lying a and would now get 37.5 million after winning the bet.

'Good reminder, I need to claim it,' Jash suddly recalled the bet after going through the problems with YP.

Though it indeed helped bring a false sse of equality to some sse as ev commoners could earn it based on their performance.

Plus, it was not like Rank was allowed to exchange an infinite amount of YP; ev they could only exchange 00 per month.

'So, the maximum the top Ranks can spd for YP is one million,' Jash mused, knowing the 00 YP per month was for the top .

At rank , it capped out at 500, quite a stark increase to sure only the most worthy got it.

After all, won't the academy d up wasting resources if some weak-ass noble got thousands of YP and hoarded the training areas?

Ev if someone had talt, they'd be helpless against such a tactic, and it had already happed once...

'That's the darned reason the Academy became super strict with some of their rules while some are full of loopholes,' Jash sighed, getting a glare from Zander.

Zander thought Jash wasn't listing, to begin with. Wh he saw Jash sigh in the midst of his explanation, it obviously created a negative image of him in Zander's mind.

Glancing at Jash, Zander said in a stronger tone, "As first-year heads, we give you a 00 YP monthly, and you can spd it however you like."

Jash raised his head and exchanged a glance with Zander, bringing a smile on the latter's face as if he won some battle.

Returning to the diligt Ziva, he suggested, "If you climb to a higher position inside the studt council, you would get ev more."

While this statemt was completely bland to Jash who had ough funds for three years to buy YP monthly, it grabbed Ziva's atttion.

It wasn't that she couldn't use Solaris Marks to purchase YP, she felt it was better to get as many as she could.

After all, she had heard rumors that no amount of YP is ever ough inside the academy due to the various training areas.

Contrary to her, Jash was not the least bit interested in it, already aware of the discounts one would get for being the Year Represtative.

'Some training areas ev become free for overall Rank , so why bother?'

That was his thought process as he listed to the privileges mtioned by Zander, who continued listing them out.

Finally, he came to an important point, piquing Jash's curiosity as well.

"Remember, while this position does give you some authority over studts, it doesn't give you any right to force or threat others,"

"Right now, you might feel like you are the first ranker, so you are the best and whatnot. But this could very well change at the next assessmt test,"

"And if you are not in the Top by th, your title of Year Represtative will become nothing but an empty title."

Zander concluded with a grave tone, trying to instill the gravity of the situation into the two rebellious kids opposite him.

"What assessmt test?" Jash asked, causing Zander to get surprised while Ziva gave him a sidelong glance.

"Well... all you need to know is that it will assess all your strgths and weaknesses," Zander mtioned with a small smile.

Jash's expression nearly turned to a scowl as he sneered inwardly, 'As if I need you to tell me about it!'

While the information from the novel couldn't be rock solid because of the changes Jash brought until now, it could still be referred to.

He was only trying to see the limits of Zander, and how much he was willing to stretch it thin.

"I saw both your performances, so I am sure you both already know that there are many giuses in your batch," Zander began.

"Now, they are already aware of your elemt and unique weapon, so they would prepare accordingly," he said to Ziva before turning to Jash.

"The same goes for you, they would make plans to counter your sudd burst in strgth and swordsmanship and martial arts,"

"Simply speaking, they won't make the mistake of underestimating either of you," Zander ded his part and looked at their serious expression.

Looking at them, a small smile graced his lips for a split second before vanishing without a trace.

Jash, who had kept a close eye on Zander while pretding to be worried, was in utter disbelief, 'Did I just imagine it?!'

Before Ziva could delve deeper into her worries and Jash could make sse of things he just saw, Zander broke the tsion with a light chuckle.

"Now, now, no need to be so tse and worried all of a sudd, it's not like the assessmt test is tomorrow or anything,"

"Also, it should be a team match, not a solo one, but I can't confirm it for you or tell anymore about it," Zander said while waving his hand.

'Did he just go beyond his limits?' Jash wondered inwardly, barely keeping the same expression, struggling to believe his ears.

Zander, one of the strictest professors, actually revealed such a thing of his own volition!

Before Jash could be any more shocked, Zander piped in, "Before I forget, let me tell you this: There will be a writt test which can help or stop you from achieving your spot in the Top ."

More or less, writt tests were permant within the Academy, so it did make sse for it to be this way.

Meanwhile, Jash, unable to hold his curiosity, asked, "Why tell us in advance?"

Noting his smile, Zander reciprocated with a smile before answering, "Don't worry; count this as one of the privileges."

'I am damn sure I don't have a good impression on this guy,' Jash thought skeptically, not believing a word of it being a privilege.

He knew one thing for sure, though. Having a good or bad relationship with professors could impact your life inside the Academy.

That's why he wanted to know why Zander wt the extra mile, something that never happed in the novel.

Contrary to his overthinking self, Ziva was casually sipping from the glass while listing to it.

No one could guess what was on her mind as she asked, "Do professors usually interve with the studts and their decisions?"

A bit surprised at the sudd question, Zander smiled, replying, "We just make sure that nothing bad happs to the studts inside the Academy,"

"But we want to give them an experice of real life, so to answer your question; No, we do not interve unless rules are brok," he said carefully.

'This guy, he is too daring,' Jash mused, turning his head to Ziva who looked down for a few seconds before nodding.

It seemed that she also understood the underlying meaning behind Zander's words.
