'What kind of punishment is seclusion and reflection?'
Most of the new students were completely confused.
"That concludes the punishment. Next are the coaching staff's arrangements. In light of Zhao Rui's advancement to Martial Arts Level 9, we are elevating his benefits to be equivalent to those of an official team member."
"Equivalent?"
All the first-year students looked at the coaches, puzzled.
Just then, Zeng Hongyi spoke up. "Our Martial Arts Team has an explicit rule: students who are not from the Martial Arts Academy cannot join the Martial Arts Team as official members."
Hearing this, everyone finally understood that such a rule existed.
"But Zhao Rui, don't lose heart. If you can achieve good results in various levels of competition in the future, it's not out of the question for us to make an exception for you."
Hearing Zeng Hongyi's words, Zhao Rui smiled, unconcerned. "I'll take your teachings to heart, Coach! I will definitely redouble my efforts."
