True King.
This was a term he had never heard before.
Seeing Su Tu's confusion, Dean Si Tu didn't mince words and directly said, "The True King Competition is the highest-level training program of the Federation."
"Once you seize the title of 'True King,' you will receive the greatest resource allocation from the Federation, aiming to help the 'True King' reach their maximum potential in the shortest time possible."
"Moreover, the academy that births a 'True King' will receive an additional 200% resource subsidy in the coming century."
"Su Tu, I'm being straightforward with you. The reason I'm investing such great costs to recruit you is because I see potential in you. I believe you have the qualifications to become the 'True King'!"
Dean Si Tu spoke resoundingly.
Upon hearing this, Su Tu realized, though he had been somewhat curious before. Even though he had remarkable talent and performed excellently in the general exams, the resources devoted by the Ten Great Academies to compete for him were overly excessive.
It seems now that everything was all for the pursuit of the 'True King'.
An extra 200% resource allocation, if any of the Ten Great Martial Arts Academies were to obtain it, would allow them to rapidly rise in the next hundred years, overshadowing the other academies.
This recruiting effort is a gamble. If Su Tu becomes the 'True King,' then Starship Academy will dominate the Ten Great Academies as the leader in the next century!
"The True King Competition is the battle of true prodigies. Disciples from every hidden family will emerge, and even the Ten Celestial Martial Race might have participants."
"Su Tu, I hope you can become the 'True King.' After enrollment, I will fully support your cultivation and establish a 'True King Sprint Class' with other prodigies, independent of the academic year framework."
"Apart from cultivation, leave everything else to me to handle!"
Dean Si Tu spoke with complete sincerity.
Hearing this, Su Tu's eyes lit up. The Ten Celestial Martial Race, hidden families, true prodigies, and the True King Competition, these terms collided together, leading Su Tu to conjure up three big words in his mind.
Skill Level!!!
That's right!! According to Dean Si Tu, the participants in the True King Competition must be the top prodigies. The skill level they could offer him would undoubtedly be astonishingly abundant.

Moreover, besides obtaining a massive amount of skill level, the resource allocation aiming to cultivate the 'True King' to its own limits as quickly as possible caused a sparkle to flash in Su Tu's eyes.
This is simply a smooth ride to the summit, where absolute talents possess absolute resources.
No matter how one looks at it, there are endless benefits for Su Tu.
Immediately, Su Tu didn't hesitate: "Dean, rest assured, I will strive to cultivate diligently and aim to return with good results."
Su Tu never likes to make overly complete promises.
Saying three parts with his mouth, doing ten parts in action, this is Su Tu's style. Words alone are useless; only achievements mean everything.
Upon hearing Su Tu's words, the dean finally revealed a slight smile.
"Good! Su Tu, you will be notified across the campus. You may move freely within the academy, with unrestricted access to any area, and all machinery can be used free of charge. Additionally, you will be the class president of the True King Sprint Class, managing the distribution and allocation of all resources."
Dean Si Tu also showed the greatest sincerity.
The two then discussed some details, and Dean Si Tu sent the information and intelligence on the True King Competition to Su Tu's terminal.
"By the way, Su Tu, regarding the resources I promised you earlier, they will be implemented as soon as possible. I have some information on a certain treasure here, but I'll keep it a surprise for now."
"That item should be even more suitable for you than the Bodhi Leaf. You can look forward to it a little."
Dean Si Tu spoke.
Su Tu heard this and smiled, feeling a slight anticipation for a treasure that could rival the Bodhi Leaf and fit him even better.
While the two were conversing, that starship happened to fly over the location of the dean's office.
Su Tu's attention was involuntarily drawn to the dazzling starship.
"Su Tu, are you very interested in the starship?"
Dean Si Tu noticed this and directly spoke up.
Su Tu suppressed the doubts in his heart, feigning calmness with a smile, then said, "It's not just me who's interested. Any candidate from the Human Race would be curious, right?"
"The forums have millions of posts speculating about this starship. If you posted about its origins, it would probably become the hottest topic immediately."
Su Tu said with a tone of teasing.
Upon hearing this, Dean Si Tu laughed heartily and said to Su Tu, "Actually, the origins of this starship are both a secret and not a secret."
"If you're interested, I can tell you about it."
Su Tu heard this and a glint flashed in his eyes.
"Then I'll bother the dean with it." Su Tu didn't refuse.
Dean Si Tu stood up at this moment, turned to look towards the starship outside the window, and couldn't help sighing.
"The origins of this starship are very ancient. It dates back to when humanity first stepped out of the Star River, before the Martial God appeared, and the Human Race struggled to survive amidst adversity."
Accompanied by Dean Si Tu's aged voice, Su Tu seemed to return to the era of hell that humanity once experienced.
The Humans had initial ambitions upon leaving Ancestor Star, thinking that they were finally heading toward the stars and seas, capable of witnessing the brilliance of the Star River and the truth of the universe.
But what met them were terrifying myriad races and beings with levels of life akin to gods.
In those times, when the Humans couldn't utilize the Martial Arts Dao to elevate life levels, they became blood food in the eyes of myriad races.
Despair was like dark clouds enveloping the Humans.
However, during then, a group of Humans, pursued and toyed with by foreign races like mice taunted by cats, fled desperately.
They saw...the universe cracked open!!
Yes, the universe itself fractured; a terrifyingly huge fissure tore open one side of the Star River, and a magnificent starship slowly emerged from the cracks of the Star River.
Where the starship passed, everything was obliterated by its great power; stars were crushed into powder, and those foreign races were attracted by the starship, abandoning their pursuit of the fleeing Humans.
Yet, before they could even approach, boundless celestial energy exploded from the starship.
In an instant, all foreign races were shattered by that force, yet the Humans remained unaffected.
The starship appeared for just a moment and then vanished.
Among those Humans, a little girl heard a mystical chant amidst the boundless celestial energy.
"Through the ages eternal, the river undying, Immortals and mortals in the same boat, with a single sail to cross."
