Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start Chapter 32: Tallying Up the Rewards! (4/5)_1
While Chen Mo was examining The Heavenly Path’s Hint, the Principal finally snapped out of his surprise.
He turned to Chen Mo and said, "You lucky kid! You happened to stumble upon such good fortune today. We have such a talent on Earth who has cleared the SSS-level assessment at Level 5. This means none of you will be stuck at Level 5 anymore, waiting to break through on your own. Otherwise, you would have truly wasted a lot of experience points!"
Chen Mo smiled but didn’t say much.
While others didn’t notice anything amiss in what Shen Rulong said, Ling Yu, a keenly perceptive veteran of the Academy Alliance, offered a different perspective.
"The removal of the breakthrough limit at Level 5 might seem like a good thing, but it might not necessarily be so," she said, a hint of worry in her voice.
Her words caused several nearby Inspector Assistants to look puzzled.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo pondered her words.
At this point, Shen Rulong also grasped the reasoning.
"I see," Shen Rulong mused. "You’re saying that without the penalty of a forced autonomous breakthrough after failing an assessment, people can now confidently attempt higher-difficulty trials. This applies to those who previously feared wasting time waiting for such a breakthrough. After all, even if they fail the assessment now, they can break through instantly, and it won’t affect their experience point storage or acquisition."
"Exactly," Ling Yu nodded.
Those nearby who didn’t fully grasp the implications became even more perplexed upon hearing this.
"According to what Principal Shen said, this should be entirely a good thing. Why suggest it might not be?"
"From a conventional standpoint, it certainly appears to be beneficial," Ling Yu explained. "However, when considering the level of danger involved, it’s not purely a good thing."
The moment the words "level of danger" were spoken, everyone present had a sudden realization.
"I understand!" one of them exclaimed. "Following your line of thought, without the penalty of an autonomous breakthrough, people won’t fear failing assessments. This means they’ll be more daring in challenging trials of moderate difficulty, but those trials actually have a significant mortality rate."
"Correct," Ling Yu affirmed. "So, the lifting of the Level 5 restriction is, at best, a mixed blessing."
Chen Mo was among the first to grasp Ling Yu’s line of thought, and he couldn’t help but admire the swiftness of her reasoning.
After experiencing the intellectual test of this SSS-level assessment and witnessing Ling Yu’s acumen, Chen Mo gained deeper insights and new perspectives on problem-solving.
While everyone was discussing the new regulations, they no longer paid much attention to Chen Mo.
Seeing the Principal was too preoccupied to scold him, Chen Mo promptly sat cross-legged on the nearby grass and began to examine his Harvest from this endeavor.
First, he examined the rewards obtained from the SSS-level Realm Breakthrough Assessment.
