Nexon decides that bribing teachers is the best way to educate the masses.

Love teaching? Love getting bribed? How about you combine your two favorite activities and participate in Dragon Nest's Blackboard Jungle event! In this new event from Nexon, players will compete to become the greatest mentor of all by taking on the most students by February 17, 2012. The top 10 mentors with the most alumni by this time will receive a whopping 50,000 scales, while the next top 89 mentors will receive a still impressive 25,000 scales.

In order for a pupil to qualify as an alumni, the mentorship must be established before the player is level 15, and the mentorship cannot be broken until the pupil reaches level 40. All players who 'acquire' at least two alunmi will win a pile of Item Protection Jellies for their efforts. The maximum reward from this, however, is a 50 jellies for three alumni.
