Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Golden Core Principal (Please Favorite)

"It was indeed a long night..."

Standing by the window of his home, Fang Xing sighed as he watched the neighborhood begin to bustle and the dawn’s light emerge.

All he really wanted was to develop well; why did he always encounter so many things?

’Ding!’

At that moment, a message from Jing Xia came through, containing a file packet marked ’Destroy after reading.’

Clearly, this was a one-time file that would be destroyed immediately after being read.

’Even the most superficial information is classified at this level?’

Fang Xing nodded to himself, just about to check the contents when Jing Xia’s second message came: "Guo Peipei was silenced on the way to being escorted!"

"Silenced?"

Fang Xing’s pupils shrank slightly, unconsciously adopting Jing Xia’s catchphrase, "Is the Prevention and Control Bureau full of incompetents? How could someone get silenced like this? Or has the inside already been corrupted?"

He fell silent for a moment, finally starting to go through the information Jing Xia had sent:

"The Astrology Society worships an Outer Realm Evil God ’Swallowing Star·Kegturim’... Damn it, there are still believers in a dead Dominator?"

Fang Xing was somewhat speechless but continued to read: "They believe the great one Kegturim is not dead but asleep in a special form, hoping to ’awaken’ him through various methods..."

"The Stars Group, suspected to be a branch of the Astrology Society, whose followers often appear as astronomy enthusiasts..."

"The Blood Descent School, skilled in various Blood Magic as well as human modification and bioengineering viruses... They believe blood is the source of life, worship an Evil God codenamed ’Endless Blood Sea,’ and think that life originally emerged from the Blood Sea..."

"The Chaos Association, believers of an Evil God named ’Lord of Entropy,’ think that order is merely temporary and chaos is eternal, enjoying the creation of chaos..."

"The Gate School, worshippers of an Evil God related to the concept of ’Gates,’ codenamed ’Gate of Nothingness,’ whose members are elusive and like to develop followers among bioengineered people... They proclaim that ’Gate of Nothingness’ has a thousand faces and aspects, and studies have shown that two other Evil Gods, ’Gate of the Mysterious Female’ and ’Mysterious Lord’ are suspected to be one with ’Gate of Nothingness’..."

...

The information from Jing Xia was brief but included dozens of mysterious Evil God Organizations; each one was inscrutable.

"There are even many that are hidden and even the Federation can’t catch their slip-ups..."

"Among these Outer Realm Evil Gods, it’s unknown which one spurred the great explosion of human superpower awakening... Or perhaps it’s not them, but another unknown entity... Maybe it’s just a normal cosmic phenomenon?"

After musing silently for a while, Fang Xing made his own breakfast, then ate calmly, preparing to go to school.

Even if he had just destroyed a Cult stronghold last night, he was still a high school student who needed to attend classes.

Moreover, with recent tension rising, he didn’t need to go near Qinglin Square.

The premise that it’s fine to enjoy watching the excitement is that your own blood must not be splattered!

Now, with inevitable chaos looming in Qinglin, there was definitely someone wanting to find him, the one who killed Chen Yi, to see what he had gained from Chen Yi.

Therefore, Fang Xing decided to lay low once more, having already purchased supplies sufficient for his cultivation needs before making his getaway.

This time on the riverbank road, Fang Xing didn’t encounter Jing Xia.

After all, with such a terrible incident of a criminal being silenced, this dog-walking lady was probably going to be busy.

Instead, at the school entrance, Fang Xing ran into Liu Wei: "Hey Wei... coming to class?"

He greeted him politely.

"Yeah, it was quite chaotic in your neighborhood last night..."

Liu Wei casually commented.

"Yes, they caught a Cult follower..."

Fang Xing nodded, and the two entered the school together.

As soon as they entered the school, Xia Long approached: "You two are just in time. The principal wants to see you!"

"Hm?"

Fang Xing’s eyes brightened, "Could it be that the scholarship has finally come through?"

"That’s right, it’s not just you guys this time, but also Gu Yun from first-year, Bai Lianyi... Come with me."

Xia Long waved his hand and walked ahead of the two.

Fang Xing followed Xia Long all the way to the principal’s office.

To be honest, after two years as a student, this was his first time stepping into this office.

’They say the teachers you can meet in university are usually people at the highest level in life... doesn’t seem wrong.’

’In the Otherworld, even a high school principal is a big shot...’

While scoffing internally, Fang Xing recalled information about the principal.

Chuying Star was an education-oriented planet where the principals of various high schools form the supreme joint conference, influencing the policies and direction of the entire planet.

And the principal of Yutai High School, ’Lu Guangming,’ was a Sixth Realm Martial Artist, a Martial Arts Golden Core level powerhouse!

Lu Guangming looked like an ordinary middle-aged man, even a bit balding. Upon seeing Xia Long and the others, he revealed a small smile: "Teacher Xia Long, please step out for a moment, let me get to know our top students better... Come, come, Student Liu, Student Fang, please have a seat."

I must say, as a Martial Arts expert, the principal really didn’t have the aura of a strong person but instead resembled an educator.

Sitting on the sofa in the office were two others—it was Gu Yun and Bai Lianyi!

Fang Xing and Liu Wei expressed their thanks and then took their seats beside them.

"Our school’s in a tough spot... This year’s senior class looks like it’s going to be wiped out, not a single one getting into university... Now all our hopes rest on you guys."

Lu Guangming looked at the four of them with sincere earnestness, "This time the school will give you a special scholarship, a million Star Coins per semester, in the hopes that you will keep up the good work and bring glory to the school..."

’A million per semester? Can’t even afford a black market Laser Gun...’

Fang Xing thought to himself but knew it was still a significant sum.

At the very least, it was just about enough to buy an apartment in the Happiness Garden District.

’But the university admission rate at Yucai High School is a bit tragic... Wait a second, Gu Yun is an externally recruited top student and doesn’t count. Currently, in the sophomore class, there are only three university "seeds," all concentrated in class 2-2. Isn’t that a bit too conspicuous?’

Fang Xing, startled by a possibility, shuddered.

He looked up and met Lu Guangming’s gentle gaze.

The other man gave him a small, kind smile.

But Fang Xing had a thought: ’Is this scrutiny? From a Martial Arts Golden Core expert, a direct review?’

However, he was not a follower of an Evil God and so had nothing to hide.

"Okay, if you have any problems with your studies or life, you can come to me..."

After a cordial conversation with the four students, Lu Guangming began to usher them out.

Fang Xing and the others politely took their leave and closed the office door behind them.

Only then did Lu Guangming settle back into his leather chair, holding a thermos cup filled with goji berries: "One must accept aging... Watching these young people makes me feel a year older, time flies, beauty fades... Oh, I’m supposed to live for five hundred years, so no worries then..."

On the office desk, a half-body projection suddenly appeared; it was a stylish and attractive woman: "Lu Guangming... what’s the outcome of the review?"

When it came to serious matters, Lu Guangming’s expression became solemn.

He put down the thermos cup, pondered for a moment, and replied in a deep voice: "Gu Yun is my special recruit, no doubt about her... Besides that, those three in class 2-2 of the sophomore year don’t seem to have any major issues..."

"Seem?"

The woman was clearly dissatisfied with Lu Guangming’s tone.

"Sigh, I’m just a small Martial Arts Golden Core, not a Martial Saint or Martial God... How can I be sure not to misjudge?"

Lu Guangming exhaled a long breath: "To be honest, the biggest possibility lies with Liu Wei... after all, you and I both know, the supposed natural evolution of superpowers is just fooling ghosts, the emergence of Superpower Users is absolutely related to a certain Outer Realm Evil God!"

"But we still have to follow Federation laws, we can’t just arrest someone because they awakened a superpower... that would dishearten our own people," said the woman.

"So, I’ll be watching them... Besides, isn’t the Prevention and Control Bureau also keeping an eye on this?" Lu Guangming picked up his thermos cup again and took another sip, his posture becoming relaxed and comfortable: "With you guys on the watch, I, old Lu, can afford to slack off occasionally..."

...

"Who would have thought, this time it’s a special scholarship..."

Exiting the office, Bai Lianyi spoke first.

"Yes, for the next semester’s living expenses, even the nutrition fees won’t be much of a worry."

Although Fang Xing cursed the Federation for being stingy in his heart, he still appeared happy on the surface.

"Yeah... I was almost poor enough to go fight in underground boxing."

Liu Wei chimed in as well.

Martial Artists break through their boundaries much faster than Cultivators.

Even a Qi Cultivation Stage Cultivator might spend years struggling to advance one level of their basic techniques.

Some might even be stuck at the initial or middle stages of Qi Cultivation or at the major bottleneck of moving to the higher stages for years, or even decades...

In comparison, Martial Artists progressed much faster.

At least half of Yucai High School’s students could break through to the Second Realm of Martial Arts by graduation!

If they got into university, nearly a hundred percent would succeed in becoming certified Professionals after graduation!

With sufficient resources, their advancement was rapid, no issue at all.

Hearing that Liu Wei was poor enough to consider underground boxing, Fang Xing couldn’t help but glance sideways at his former playmate.

"If you’re really short on cash, why not be my sparring partner?"

Gu Yun looked at Liu Wei with a hint of combativeness.

She had not expected that the two targets she randomly picked back then would turn out to be students with such excellent talent.

No, Liu Wei was just lucky to have awakened a superpower and soared to the skies.

But Fang Xing, who self-taught and mastered the Ghost God Saber, was the true genius.

With that in mind, she looked at Fang Xing with eager eyes: "I’m off to class... and remember, internship!"
