Chapter 87: Chapter 87: Once in a Century! Xia’s Number One, Shenxiao’s Special Admission!
I’m stunned!
Li Yuanjing is completely stunned!
He doesn’t even know how to describe his current excitement.
And his gratitude towards Lin Yi!
What he can foresee is that once these journalists and media people go back today,
The Dongjiang Education Bureau is really going to take off!
While Li Yuanjing is envisioning a bright future—
Lin Yi is utterly baffled.
No, buddy.
Doesn’t your narrative style really not align with our current worldview?
I’m in a world with a Western fantasy vibe, right?
And here you are, talking about Flying Swords, calling everyone ’Master’ and ’Closed-Door Cultivation.’
Why does it feel like we’re drifting into fantasy territory!
Luckily, Li Yuanjing is like a walking encyclopedia and can educate him.
"Celestial Profound Daoist School, the second-ranked Professional Academy in Xia."
"Just like Yundian, it only recruits special profession practitioners, including Daoists, Qigong Masters, and Knights, professions exclusive to Xia."
Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat.
Wow, the country even has exclusive special professions?
Hmm, thinking about it like this, it’s indeed reasonable.
Following this logic, do other countries also have their exclusive professions?
"Nonsense!"
"What Dao Roots and Dao Charisma! I think that Ye has gone mad from too much cultivation!"
"He’s a Mage!!"
"What does that have to do with your Celestial Profound Daoist School??"
"Ah! Tell me, what does it have to do with it??!"
Originally, Han Xicai was holding it together.
But hearing Jiang Yun’s increasingly absurd words, the veins on his forehead popped.
He couldn’t hold back, and snapped!
Although Jiang Yun is young,
And came here alone today, his momentum was no less than that of Han Xicai.
He chuckled lightly, "Mr. Han, there’s no need to get angry."
"My Master, the Celestial Secret Divine Calculation, has never made a wrong prediction so far."
"Of course, we are not forcing Brother Lin Yi to abandon Magic and switch to Daoism after enrolling."
"My Master’s meaning is that Brother Lin Yi, being extraordinarily talented, should be able to practice both Daoism and Magic."
"However, my Master also said, sending me today is just to let Brother Lin Yi know his intention, the destiny strings between him and Brother Lin Yi haven’t crossed yet."
In Jiang Yun’s words, he already regarded Lin Yi as one of them.
Calling him Brother Lin Yi repeatedly.
In fact, Lin Yi is somewhat amazed by the divine foresight of the "Master" behind Jiang Yun.
Although he thinks sword riding and cultivating immortality are very cool,
Lin Yi doesn’t actually plan to join the Celestial Profound Daoist School.
At least not for now.
He wants to go to the extreme on the magic path first.
"Humph!"
"It’s good he knows his limits."
Han Xicai snorted coldly.
Looking at Lin Yi with fiery eyes once more.
He was very sure that in this world, no Mage practitioner could refuse Yundian!
Lin Yi also knows.
At this moment, the elder is waiting for his answer.
But to make a choice among so many schools at once, he feels somewhat rash.
He wants to say I’ll consider it.
But in front of so many people, and these big shots came from afar to invite him in person.
If he refused all schools,
it would really be a bit impolite.
Just as Lin Yi was pondering how to speak,
a few shouts suddenly came from the outer edge of the crowd.
"Please everyone... make way!!"
"Mr. Li!!"
"There’s a very important call, please take it!!"
Li Yuanjing looked over.
Seeing his secretary, Mr. Wu, holding a phone receiver, urgently tiptoeing and shouting towards him.
The next moment, the security personnel already present in the entire first-floor hall of the education bureau immediately realized the urgency of the situation.
They instantly cleared a path.
After all, this is the turf of the Dongjiang Education Bureau, and even those from top universities’ management took the initiative to step aside.
Seeing the expression on his secretary’s face,
Li Yuanjing knew this call might be extraordinary.
Otherwise, Mr. Wu wouldn’t insist on him taking the call during such a busy time.
He quickly squeezed through the crowd, tiptoed and reached out, and took the phone from Mr. Wu’s hands.
A glance at the caller ID made Li Yuanjing’s heart skip a beat.
Imperial Capital Education Bureau!
A call from a superior!
Li Yuanjing didn’t dare to delay, quickly put it to his ear, and said, "This is Li Yuanjing, may I ask..."
A raspy voice quickly came from the other end.
"Li, my boy."
Upon hearing the voice,
Li Yuanjing straightened up with respect.
"Mr.... Mr. Meng?!"
During meetings in the Imperial Capital, he often saw this legendary figure from the Imperial Capital Education Bureau sitting at the head position and speaking as the spokesperson.
Only, he never had the qualification to speak to such a big shot.
Now he was in a fluster.
"Yes, it’s me."
"Is that boy Lin beside you?"
Li Yuanjing replied, "Yes, yes, he’s right next to me."
Mr. Meng Yuanzhou continued, "Good, ask him if he wants to join Shenxiao Academy."
Li Yuanjing’s hand shook.
The phone almost slipped from his grip.
His whole body trembled, speaking incoherently, "Mr.... Mr. Meng?"
"Sorry, my apologies! I got a bit excited and didn’t catch what you said."
Actually, Li Yuanjing heard it clearly.
But this is a monumental thing.
He had to make sure!
"I said, ask that boy Lin if he’s willing to join Shenxiao Academy."
After making sure he heard correctly, Li Yuanjing struggled to ask, "Mr. Meng..."
"Isn’t Shenxiao Academy’s admission process extremely special...?"
"How could it be?"
On the other side, Meng Yuanzhou laughed, "It’s a special enrollment."
"I talked with Yang Changming, and he’s very interested in the boy too, directly saying he doesn’t need to go through the slot competition process, as long as he agrees, he can enroll right away."
Li Yuanjing felt a thunder rumble in his mind.
But he didn’t forget his duty.
He quickly covered the phone’s receiver, and in a trembling voice, told Lin Yi, "Xiaoyi, the vice president of Shenxiao Academy, Mr. Yang, invites you to join Shenxiao Academy!"
"And it’s through a special enrollment process, direct admission."
"Do you want to join?"
Li Yuanjing’s voice was already very soft.
His phone was encrypted and soundproof.
So Mr. Meng’s words weren’t heard by others.
But at this moment, Li Yuanjing’s voice couldn’t escape everyone’s ears.
Instantly, all the university admissions officials surrounding Lin Yi and Li Yuanjing were dumbfounded.
Including Han Xicai!
He never expected Shenxiao Academy to make a move!
How is this possible?
This is not reasonable!
Lin Yi was somewhat confused.
"Shenxiao Academy, is it the number one academy in our Xia?"
Li Yuanjing nodded vigorously!
This time, even Lin Yi felt something was amiss!
As far as he knows, this top Professional Academy, holding the number one ranking in Xia for hundreds of years, never admits students who sit for the college entrance exam that year!
To enter this university, there’s only one way!
You need to first attend any of the top 10 universities in Xia for at least 1 year,
And after 1 year, you must be exceptional and achieve many stringent goals to have the chance to receive an invitation from Shenxiao.
Furthermore, one has to undergo a brutal selection against other invitees to finally get in!
At this moment, the number one in Xia is opening its doors unconditionally to Lin Yi!
