I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 604: Lin Yi’s Grand Gesture!
Previously on I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second...
A grin crept across the ram-headed Divine Envoy's face.
"Heh, in the vast expanse of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds with its innumerable planets, the disappearance of Blue Star's planetary system barely registers. The higher-ups won't bat an eye at the vanishing Source Power from a handful of planets."
"We couldn't care less, and they won't discover it anyway. But hasn't Blue Star grown overly cocky, completely ignoring us? Why not strike lightly to teach those folks on Blue Star the real perils of the world?"
The snake-headed Divine Envoy let out a chuckle upon hearing those words.
"Handle it yourself if you must; I've heard even Calamity took a hit from Blue Star. If we both head there, aren't we just courting disaster?"
"Count me out; go by yourself if you're so eager."
News of Lin Yi's return to Blue Star spread like wildfire, drawing the covetous gazes of countless powerhouses toward the skill points he held.
What professional could stay composed when a chance to grow stronger dangled right in front of them?
Long before Lin Yi arrived back in the Imperial Capital, mighty War God-level fighters had already gathered at his parents' front door.
Yet, the demeanor of these War Gods brimmed with profound reverence.
Who on all of Blue Star would ever dream of stirring up chaos at Lin Yi's doorstep?
They all masked their visits to Lin Yi's parents as pretexts to shower them with lavish gifts.
Hundred-year ginsengs and thousand-year snow lotuses abounded.
Lin Yi's parents were left stunned by the dazzling array of precious tonics.
Those bearing gifts made their intentions crystal clear: a quick introduction, followed by flattery and offerings.
Success or failure in acquiring skill points from Lin Yi was beside the point.
Given Lin Yi's monumental services to Blue Star, his parents merited the world's utmost honor.
Yet this time, after wrapping up his mission, Lin Yi skipped heading straight home.
He had pressing matters elsewhere to attend to.
Wanchong Mountain had placed him in the dean role, but Lin Yi had contributed nothing to Fu Xi Academy thus far.
Though Wanchong Mountain insisted his name alone sufficed, Lin Yi refused to slack off entirely.
Shenxiao and Wanchong Mountain had aided him immensely in his ascent, as had his former teammates—all warranting his gratitude and support.
Therefore, Lin Yi made his way back to Shenxiao first.
After the fierce prior clashes, Shenxiao—Xia's top academy—bore faint scars of discord.
Expert artisans had restored it so flawlessly that scars of battle were scarcely visible.
The moment Lin Yi entered Shenxiao, numerous students' eyes locked onto him.
"Greetings, Dean Lin!"
Lin Yi's time as a student there had been brief, without accumulating sufficient credits for graduation.
No alternative existed; even Xu Sheng forbade Lin Yi from lingering as a pupil.
With his string of mind-blowing achievements for Blue Star and power at an unmatched peak, how could they retain such a figure in student ranks?
Initially, resentment brewed among some students, particularly veteran upperclassmen far his senior who'd toiled through years in advanced classes. Discovering their junior would soon helm Fu Xi Academy as dean? Utterly infuriating.
Yet Lin Yi's escalating displays of might and game-changing feats forced acceptance.
Sincere admiration laced every cry of 'Dean Lin.'
Fu Xi Academy students beamed with pride, boasting to kin and comrades about their dean being Lin Yi—such glory!
As acting dean, Lin Yi sidestepped daily operations, but the title alone radiated awe-inspiring prestige.
This prestige stunned in Xia Country; across Blue Star, it commanded even greater esteem.
Enrolling in Lin Yi's academy was a dream countless chased in vain.
One student's deferential call sparked a surge of peers rushing to hail their elusive dean.
Lin Yi, no office drone, felt overwhelmed by the zealous admirers.
Innumerable students clamored for snapshots and signatures.
Lin Yi shuddered to think how endlessly it would drag if he indulged them.
Thus, with a mere thought, he unleashed his Gale Wings and vanished in a flash.
His next appearance placed him at Chiyou Academy.
On his initial visit here, he'd been an obscure newbie; now, Lin Yi stood as Shenxiao's hottest dean.
Regrettably, today's tour lacked his prior guide.
Chiyou Academy's straightforward pupils bowed to Lin Yi and promptly asked how they might aid Dean Lin.
Lin Yi stated his visit's aim: locating Sun Dachuan.
From teammate to close friend, Sun Dachuan delivered solid, unwavering support to Lin Yi throughout their adventures.
Sun Dachuan possessed vast potential for growth, particularly in forging equipment.
With his gear stuck at the same levels for far too long, Lin Yi decided to seek out Sun Dachuan right away.
The bros hadn't crossed paths in ages, both aching with mutual longing.
To Lin Yi's surprise, Sun Dachuan welcomed him by saying, "Long time no see, Dean Lin."
Lin Yi erupted in laughter and swiftly landed a playful punch on him.
"What, even you wanna rib me? I was gonna share some skill points to boost your power, but if you're not interested, never mind then."
After those words, he faked turning to walk away.
Sun Dachuan was well aware that Lin Yi had gained a skill allowing him to grant skill points to others.
Yet he couldn't fathom how Lin Yi amassed such a huge stash of skill points.
Past skill points had all gone toward empowering War Gods, so as mere student, Sun Dachuan never dared to expect any.
But now, with Lin Yi offering skill points, excitement exploded within him—how could it not?
"Hey, don't go, Brother Lin Yi."
"With our brotherhood, what's mine is yours for sure. My power rises, and forging gear for you comes first, right? Come on, you know..."
As Sun Dachuan slipped back into his familiar ways, Lin Yi's face lit up with a smile.
"Fine, let's head to your spot, and I'll hand over those skill points..."
Fair to all, Lin Yi messaged Nangong Ling and chubby Feng Sanyou upon entering Sun Dachuan’s forge, summoning them for their share of benefits.
"Whoa, Brother Lin Yi, Heaven-Breaking Armor’s outer shell, Soul-Devouring Ant Venom Stinger, tons of materials—man, how many Insect Race dungeons did you grind in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms?"
Blue Star's elite leaders alone knew of Lin Yi's triumph in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms.
Sun Dachuan, of course, wouldn't dream of such a possibility.
"Huh? Not that many, I just destroyed the Insect Hive Star."
