1601 Status Rise! (1)
w.a.n.g Teng made his decision as to which academy he would join; the Second Prince and the others followed suit.
Everyone chose different academies. It seemed that they had contemplations of their own.
Still, much to our hero’s surprise, Yue Qiqiao also chose the Seventh Stellar Academy.
Sikong the Second was elated. One student was already a great boon, and he was graced with two this time. Furthermore, one of them was the unparalleled talent who had his name inscribed on the Star Rankings.
The elder was extremely pleased. Even his back straightened a little when he glanced at the other invigilators.
The young hero smiled and shook his head when he saw the latter’s att.i.tude. This invigilator is quite the easy-going type; all his emotions are in the open.
Then, he secretly glanced at Yue Qiqiao. He felt puzzled by her choice, but he didn’t give it much thought.
The latter was softly chatting with Leng Qianxue so she didn’t notice w.a.n.g Teng’s gaze.
“You have one month to take care of your personal matters. After that you must report to the stellar academies,” Gong Han said.
“One month?” Everyone was stunned. The allotted time was limited; traveling alone would take up some time.
The hero frowned. What could he do in such a short time? He couldn’t even go back to the Great Qian Empire.
“After taking care of your personal matters, you can use your wrist.w.a.tch to contact the academies and we will send s.p.a.cecrafts to fetch you,” the elder continued.
“Yes!” Everyone was surprised, but they soon remembered how mysterious the Seven Stellar Academies were. Without this service, it would probably be impossible to find the academies’ locations. Such an arrangement was understandable.
“OK, that is all. We have completed our mission and it’s time to leave.” Gong Han waved a hand and smiled.
“Why don’t you stay for a few more days?” said General Fu Xinglan.
Gong Han shook his head. “It’s all right. We need to report back.”
“In that case, let us send you off,” the former replied.
All the eternal stage warriors had already disappeared in the control room when the last phrase was said. Only a slight s.p.a.ce ripple lingered.
Neither the Second Prince nor the others felt the fluctuation. Only w.a.n.g Teng had sensed it, since he had the s.p.a.ce talent.
Once again, he was amazed by the strength of the eternal stage warriors!
Ji Haochen stretched his back and gave a loud sigh. “I didn’t even dare breathe loudly in front of the invigilators.”
“Why are you so timid!” said w.a.n.g Teng, glancing at the latter from the corner of his eye.
“Me? Timid?” Ji Haochen was furious. “Do you think everyone can get their favor like you? Talk is cheap.”
“You’re timid. Stop finding excuses,” the hero said contemptuously.
“I…” the former felt frustrated.
“Hahaha…” The Second Prince and the others burst out laughing.
“Actually, the invigilators have high hopes for all of us. I’m sure everyone has received messages from the seven academies,” said the prince with a meaningful gaze.
“That’s right. I received a second message on my wrist.w.a.tch.” Timothy nodded.
“Why didn’t I get one?” w.a.n.g Teng was stunned. He looked through the contents of his wrist.w.a.tch. Only the introduction of the Seven Stellar Academies was there.
“They have already asked you in persson, what more do you want?” Ji Haochen replied angrily.
“Sigh~” The young hero sighed and shook his head. “Being too outstanding isn’t good. I feel so out of place. So stressful.”
Everyone was speechless.
You’re not too outstanding. You’re just bragging!
“There’s not much we can do in a single month,” said Yue Qiqiao.
The Second Prince replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, the military will send us back in eternal-rank s.h.i.+ps.”
“Eternal-rank s.h.i.+ps!” Yue Qiqiao and Ling Yangxu were stunned.
“Don’t sell yourselves short. You are among the top ten from the League of Talents. Your statuses have changed,” said the prince.
“Even our treatment has improved,” w.a.n.g Teng lamented. He had just learned about the additional benefits of being a top ten genius of the compet.i.tion.
“Of course. You are the most precious and talented warriors in all of the Great Qian Empire. Eternal level s.p.a.cecraft aren’t just convenient, it also serves as protection,” the prince added.
“Protection?” w.a.n.g Teng stared at the Second Prince curiously.
A voice suddenly chimed in, “You’ll be entering the Seven Stellar Academies as the top ten performers of the compet.i.tion. There’s a bright future ahead, but there are bound to be people who are jealous of you. Be it someone from the Great Qian Empire, a rival force from another region, or a dark apparition lurking in the universe… any of them could make a move against you.”
Everyone was shocked. They quickly turned and saw the three generals stepping out of the void in front of them.
“Have you already sent the invigilators off?” w.a.n.g Teng asked.
“Yes, they have left.” General Fu Xinglan nodded.
“I didn’t realize we’d still be in danger after entering the League of Talents’ top ten,” Ji Haochen exclaimed. He was a renowned talent from the Ji family, but he wasn’t familiar with such matters.
