Old Zhang, who had just returned from the mayor’s residence, told everyone about the blood crystal’s uses. A commotion promptly ensued.
"No wonder that fellow wanted the blood crystals! He had it all planned out!"
"We’ve suffered terrible losses!"
"What a scheming young man!"
...
Everyone was engaged in a clamorous discussion. Hearing these comments annoyed Old Zhang. "Stop these ridiculous conjectures, the A-1 unit were the ones who discovered its uses! The higher authorities have rewarded them with four hundred Heaven Merit Points and the mayor’s residence has given them additional rewards," he shouted, displeased.
Old Zhang spoke out of admiration for Ai Hui. He hadn’t thought much of Ai Hui when they’d first met, but thinking back now, he had become acquaintances with someone impressive. As far as he could remember, no student had ever accumulated this many Heaven Merit Points before graduating.
