Chapter 106: Chapter 101: Rejection (Request for Monthly Ticket)
The Blue Star Federation’s college entrance examination is actually divided into two phases.
The first phase is the unified federal examination, where you get scored as per your performance.
But...
After the unified exam, there is a second phase, that’s taking the entrance exams of the various elite universities!
In fact, the former is just the threshold. Whether you are admitted primarily depends on the latter!
However, 99.9% of the candidates simply can’t even pass the threshold, so there’s no need for them to take the school exams. They can be directly channeled into society or the federal army.
The top-tier universities, apart from meeting the high exam score threshold, have many other requirements to participate in their recruitment exams.
Blue Star University is a comprehensive university with very strong departments in every field.
Holy Armor University favors professionals such as Mecha Masters and Mechanics.
Nine Swords Academy tends to focus on Superpower and Weapon Masters, and so on...
"Regarding Blue Star University, every year at most a thousand new students are recruited... but that’s the total number for dozens of departments combined, even though the Martial Arts department is a large one, the recruitment quota is only about fifty."
Xia Long said, "Counting the three top-tier universities, it’s only over a hundred places... You’re facing geniuses from across the universe, including foreign exchange students! Being at the Martial Arts Fourth Realm on Chuying Star is quite impressive, on Young Qilin Star you can only be considered excellent... and when compared with Hidden Dragon and Young Phoenix, the two major education planets, well... still very excellent, but definitely not possible to get a guaranteed spot at a top-tier university."
"Competing for a hundred or so places against universe-wide Martial Arts prodigies of appropriate age?"
Fang Xing clenched his fist, "That sounds quite intriguing..."
"Keep it up, maybe you can really reach for a top-tier university... Have you set your target yet? Although you can take entrance exams for multiple schools, some of their exam times coincide... Even if there’s no conflict, it might not be feasible to catch exams on different planets... and even the bio-engineered candidates who are doing the worst can’t afford the spaceship fare."
Xia Long depicted a chilling reality.
"Wait... If bio-engineered candidates haven’t reached the Martial Arts Fourth Realm, haven’t certified as a Professional, and haven’t elevated their Citizen Level, I’m afraid they wouldn’t even have the eligibility to purchase a ticket, right?"
Fang Xing pondered a problem.
"That’s why bio-engineered candidates must be outstanding. Without being at the Fourth Realm, they need a teacher from a school or a certified Professional to guarantee them, in order to obtain the qualification to purchase a ticket... Their opportunities are often fewer, their choices narrower."
Xia Long sighed.
"How long does it take to get to Blue Star from Chuying Star?"
Fang Xing suddenly thought of another question and hurriedly checked the spaceship ticketing network.
"Hmm... The cheapest economy class ticket costs around two million Star Coins and takes ten days... Ten days? That short?"
Even light-speed spaceships, when scaled to interstellar travel, often consider several years or even decades to be normal.
Even... tens of thousands of years!
"It’s because the Black Mountain Star System has a natural wormhole that connects directly to the solar system where Blue Star is located... thus a shortcut can be taken."
Xia Long answered, "But the Star Coins you have are probably only enough for a one-way trip to Blue Star... To reach places like Holy Armor University or the Cosmic Secret Realm where Nine Swords Academy is located, it’s even farther from here, and without a wormhole, you’ll need a lot of time... If you propose to the principal, I think you can stay at home for your senior year to focus on exam preparation or traveling."
"No wonder talented candidates need financial aid... Just the travel expenses alone are a freaking rip-off."
Fang Xing sighed.
...
At the gate of Talent High School.
It was dismissal time, and many high schoolers were coming out in groups of threes and twos.
Bai Lang and Qian Xun were classmates. They didn’t know each other until they had fought, but now they were on good terms and lingered together for a while.
When they got to the gate, they saw a hovering limousine waiting quietly.
"Is there some important person here?"
Qian Xun glanced at the limousine’s sleek lines and the logo in the front. After a quick check, she gasped, "Such a hovering limousine would cost at least a million Star Coins... The key is that it’s hard to obtain the flying permit..."
"Could it be the principal’s vehicle?"
Bai Lang guessed.
As they were speculating, the car door opened, and a woman in a suit stepped out.
She looked towards Talent High School with a reflective expression, saw Bai Lang and Qian Xun, and greeted them immediately, "Hello, Bai Lang, and Qian Xun!"
"Hello, teacher!"
Bai Lang and Qian Xun almost instinctively greeted back, and then they were surprised, "Lan Fei teacher?!"
They had known Lan Fei for two years; there was no way they could mistake her.
Moreover, this was not the school classroom, but the outside world!
So, the one who appeared here was a real person?
Bai Lang covertly compared Lan Fei to Qian Xun beside him, and his heart trembled.
"Yes..."
Lan Fei smiled, "After all, I’ve been teaching at this school for many years. Now that I have the chance, I wanted to come and have a look..."
"You resigned from teaching?" Qian Xun was a girl who stepped forward immediately, obviously excited.
"Yes, I resigned and became a personal secretary."
Lan Fei did not hide the fact.
"Personal secretary?" Bai Lang was almost indignant.
Which bastard managed to turn the dream of all these high school boys into a private delicacy?
"Yes... He is also studying here."
Lan Fei replied with a smile.
Just as Bai Lang was still guessing who that bastard was, Fang Xing walked out of the school gate, saw Lan Fei, and frowned, "Why did you come?"
"I’m here to serve the young master," Lan Fei answered with a beaming smile, causing Bai Lang and Qian Xun standing beside her to fall into a stupor.
It was only after Fang Xing got into the sedan and sped away that they came back to their senses.
"What’s going on? Isn’t Fang Xing a biological human? How come he suddenly seems to have turned into a little prince of a wealthy family?"
Qian Xun gaped, clearly remembering the days when Fang Xing and Liu Wei were miserable laborers.
"Do you think..." Bai Lang’s eyes flashed with a glint of wisdom, "is it possible that after Ah Xing became famous from the Hundred Star Joint Exam, his biological parents came looking to acknowledge him?"
After all, those capable of providing superior sperm and eggs were all upper-class individuals of the Federation.
If a biological father suddenly appeared, it would mean an instant rise to success.
Although such things were very rare, they were not unheard of, they even made TV shows about it, which were popular among biological humans...
"That’s true, the ordinary upper class probably couldn’t access the data of the incubation chambers from those years... unless it was a giant head or wealthy family."
Qian Xun nodded, and the two looked in the direction where the sedan had disappeared, both somewhat sighing.
In the past, they had looked down on these biological human classmates just a little.
But now, they felt as if the world had turned upside down, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into...
In the back seat of the sedan.
The seats of the Federation-manufactured flying car were quite comfortable and even came with a massage function.
Fang Xing slightly closed his eyes, not bothered to argue with Lan Fei, but instead recollected the conversation he had with Xia Long and the background information he learned about the ’Giant God Group’.
"Giant God Group was established by the legendary Martial Artist ’Yin Daoyin’, one of the earliest Martial Gods of the Federation, who later joined other martial arts experts to establish the ’Martial Artist Association’, making significant contributions to the development of Federation Martial Arts, hence the Yin Family has been a martial family for generations... At its peak, the Yin Family had two Martial Gods and four Martial Saints... But in the year 620 of the Star Sky Calendar, the Yin Family patriarch Yin Daoyin died in battle at the frontline, causing the Yin Family’s influence to wane, but they still have a Martial God ’Yin Haizhen’ in charge, not to be underestimated..."
What made Fang Xing silent was that this contract with the Yin Family was secured by Xia Long, who had made the call and pushed for Fang Xing.
In truth, it was for his own good...
’This Xia Long... I hadn’t realized he also came from the Martial Artist Association... Well, most Martial Artists are likely to have some connection with this association...’
’It’s just a bit too presumptuous. Thinking they know what’s best for me...’
Fang Xing shook his head inwardly.
It’s just like some parents who believe they have chosen the best path for their children, which may not be the wrong thing to do.
But they overlook the contradictions and this struggle, the sensitive yet doubtful inner heart of the child.
They might just want to experience the hardships, to be beaten down by society...
Upon realizing they were covered in scars, they might suddenly look back and see that what they have struggled for over the years was still less than what their family had arranged for them initially...
’But even so, I want to walk my own path!’
He opened his eyes and made a decision, "Lan Fei!"
"Young master, may I help you with something?"
Lan Fei’s "young master" was full of allure, "This car has autopilot, and the sound insulation is very good... You can do whatever you want, young master."
"I’ve decided, I refuse to sign with the Giant God Group."
As Fang Xing spoke up, Lan Fei was taken aback.
"Refuse? Do you have a better option? Or is there something unsatisfactory about the contract? You can bring it up."
Lan Fei truly felt regretful.
In her eyes, Fang Xing was her most outstanding student, but the Federation had too many geniuses, especially among the biological humans!
Without sponsorship, one would fade into the crowd, even die in battle!
Thus, persuading him to accept the Giant God Group’s sponsorship was indeed for Fang Xing’s benefit.
"I’m resolute!"
Fang Xing said, "You can contact Yin Haizhen now."
"If you refuse, I will still serve you until the end of the last semester of senior high school," Lan Fei answered.
’This Yin Haizhen is quite generous in his dealings...’
’But it seems a small effort for his subordinates to maintain good terms with a genius, appears to be a sure win...’
As Fang Xing was contemplating, Lan Fei asked curiously, "May I ask if you have found a better partner?"
"No, but I want to try on my own without relying on others..."
Fang Xing replied, "I have confidence in my own talent!"
Lan Fei was at a loss for words.
She instinctively felt this genius would definitely regret it!
Even though Martial Arts were known as the evolutionary path requiring the fewest resources, they still needed resources, especially after reaching the high ranks!
’It’s such a pity... This Mr. Fang will never know what he has really turned down...’
Seeing this, Lan Fei could only sigh inwardly.
