Chapter 518 - GPA
Translator: Yorasu | Editor: Fireclaws
“GPA?” A frowning expression appeared on Su Hao’s face.
Obviously, he knew about GPA.
Before the era of origin ability, the concept of GPA has been available in any university and is mainly used to assess the students’ result. However, he knew GPA in this school would be different than what he knew about. Otherwise, Xia You wouldn’t ask him in such a manner.
Since course credit is used to differentiate strength, then GPA...
“Is GPA used to represent the true combat effectiveness?” Su Hao gave a smart guess.
“Sure enough, you’re intelligent.” Xia You who was praising him just a second ago dropped a bomb, “Too bad; you’re still wrong.”
Blue veins could be seen popping out from Su Hao’s forehead.
Damn you.
His answer was wrong, yet she praised him for being smart. So, how stupid must he have been in the original image this senior had towards him.
“Although you answered wrongly, you were pretty close.” Xia You laughed.
“Well, GPA is pretty useless to any ordinary student because their GPA would always stay at zero! However, for geniuses like you or those who have strength above their actual level, then it’s no longer the same.”
“Oh...” As Su Hao pondered, he seemed to understand something.
“When you’re in the outside world, before entering Zhanzheng College, you must have come across the so-called leapfrog challenges often. For you, it should be even more common!
However, many people in society have different strength although their levels are pretty similar. Yet, there is no way to make an effective assessment of the difference.
Therefore, if a rule for this leapfrog strength is to be established, a place where the strength assessment is relatively standard is needed, and such a place is none other than Zhanzheng College!
No matter how you won in the outside world, only when you defeat a student who meets the standard here, are you considered to be a real deal in having strength above your level. Otherwise, to duel with those professional espers in the outside world, what significance would that bring?
Course credit provides a fair mechanism and GPA provides the rule.
Your guess is actually pretty close. Course credit is the assessment of strength and GPA is the level you can accomplish leapfrog challenges.
Each level you leapfrog would represent a point for your GPA.
This is what GPA is all about!
A student here when facing against any from ordinary universities might be able to leapfrog by two levels. However, in Zhanzheng College, if you can’t beat a student with one credit higher than you, it means that your GPA will always stay at zero and you’re not qualified for a leapfrog challenge!
GPA, it’s a very strict index!
It represent a student’s true combat effectiveness!
For example, if a student with 10 credits and zero GPA but another student has only 9 credits and 3 GPA...
The result is self-evident!
The latter would have a total of 12 points, which would be an additional 2 points in true combat effectiveness!
It would be total domination, and without a doubt, the winner would be the one with 9 credits!
Of course, if the first student was able to defeat the one with the advantage of 2 additional points, that student must have made significant progress and would be rewarded with 2 points to their GPA.
GPA represents your combat power, your potential!
In a sense, just like you guessed, it’s not wrong to say GPA is an accurate representation of one’s combat ability. A genius might not have a high credit score, but his GPA definitely won’t be zero!
This is what GPA all about!”
As Xia You finished her explanation, Su Hao was deeply impressed with it.
GPA!
Sure enough, this is what GPA is!
Combat power!
Potential!
If so… then Wan Cheng’s GPA must be high, right?
Thousand Superimposed Waves!
That scene of Tiger Emperor being easily eradicated was still fresh and amazing in Su Hao’s mind.
Su Hao could feel his blood boiling in excitement. He previously fought against Bai Feng as a level nine specialized esper. Then how strong is the current him? Could he obtain a few points for his GPA?
Is that something to be proud of?
No!
Based on Su Hao’s calculation, if Bai Feng was considered to have 11 credits, then the previous him should be at around 9 credits. In other words, even if Su Hao had gone beyond and surpassed someone who was in a higher realm, he would only get an additional 2 points in GPA?
No wonder Senior Xia You said that it isn’t that easy to obtain.
For a specialized esper to defeat a professional esper!
What kind of glory is it?
