Chapter 314: Vying for Recruitment

Top-grade scholarship?
Feng Lin was bewildered. He just arrived at the Great Wall University and still didn’t understand the exact rules here.
“That’s right!” Chi Tianjiao explained. “Since it is a university, there would naturally be scholarships! But this scholarship is only used to encourage those peak-tier geniuses. Despite so, your performance in the Spirit Race incident isn’t any way inferior to those peak-tier geniuses. You might just be an elite cultivator, but you have the potential and strength of a grand cultivator. I can make the decision and get the War Academy to give you a top-grade scholarship.”
Feng Lin was able to survive despite the killing order set by the Spirit Race. This indicated that his potential was so high that the Spirit Race had already treated him as a mortal enemy.
He might be an enemy to them, but he was a genius to mankind!
As long as the people in the Great Wall University weren’t fools, they would all be able to see his potential. Who wouldn’t feel their hearts moved?
Hence, when the trial was concluded earlier, this Chi Tianjiao hurriedly came over because he was familiar with Feng Lin. He wanted to be the first to give him such optimal conditions so Feng Lin would join the academy he was representing.
Chi Tianjiao’s gaze was filled with heat. He stared at Feng Lin with fervent hope. He wanted Feng Lin to agree.
Feng Lin hesitated. He didn’t know what he should say. But all of a sudden, someone else suddenly spoke up.
“Don’t listen to him, Feng Lin. A top-grade scholarship can only cover a year’s worth of school fees and an additional 10,000 contribution points. It isn’t even worthy of a single mention. Why don’t you join our Gene Academy? I can give you a special-grade scholarship, and the contribution points you can receive are over ten times that of a top-grade scholarship!”
The voice rang out from afar. A middle-aged man in military uniform then personally appeared, inviting Feng Lin.
This treatment was truly preferential.
The Great Wall University was clearly giving him heavy recognition.
When Chi Tianjiao heard of this, his expression instantly turned unsightly but he had nothing to rebut.
Clearly, the identity of this middle-aged man wasn’t ordinary.
Special-grade scholarship!
Feng Lin’s heart stirred. He didn’t expect the Gene Academy to give him such preferential treatment.
When Chi Tianjiao saw his expression, he knew that that was it for him. However, things weren’t concluded yet as another cold snort rang out.
“The War Academy and Gene Academy are too miserly. Feng Lin, what’s the point of joining such stingy academies? Why don’t you come and join my Martial Academy? Not only will we give you a special-grade scholarship, but we will also give you 100,000 contribution points PER YEAR and will also invite the strongest martial masters to impart their martial arts to you.” This voice was like thunder, and soon, a burly man in heavy armor walked over here. He looked like a small mountain; thick, tall, and muscular. His eyes flashed with a ferocious light as he glared at Chi Tianjiao and the middle-aged general. He then turned to Feng Lin and grinned, looking like a ferocious tiger.
“Mhm?” Feng Lin frowned. He finally knew what was going on.
It seemed that the killing order of the Spirit Race had helped him instead, causing the Great Wall University to value him heavily. These three academies were all vying for him…
His heart stirred.
Up until now, the Martial Academy seemed to be his best choice.
“I want to join the mar…” As he thought about this, Feng Lin no longer hesitated and prepared to agree.
“Hold up.” A gentle and warm voice suddenly drifted over.
Feng Lin glanced in the direction of the voice only to see an old man in ancient-style chinese clothing walking over. A peaceful look could be seen on his face. He was very amicable-looking and gave off a feeling of a kind grandpa. He didn’t seem like a cultivator.
“Master Hai!” These people here immediately greeted respectfully when they saw the old man.
The origin of this old man must be extraordinary.
Feng Lin stared at that old man, waiting for him to speak.
“Feng Lin, do you want to join my Mythology Academy instead?” The old man smiled lightly.
“Master Hai, you are actually also interested in Feng Lin!” The burly man from the Martial Academy spoke in disbelief.
“That’s only natural.” Master Hai smiled, not concealing his objective here. “This Feng Lin created a brand new mythological path and is also a counter to the Spirit Race. He is merely at the elite cultivator level, yet the Spirit Race already placed his name on their killing order. If he doesn’t join our Mythology Academy, where should he join? Only with us would he be able to fully excavate his true potential.
“Master Hai, even if you put it this way, I won’t agree to it easily. Although I respect you, everyone can see for themselves regarding Feng Lin’s potential. He is able to fight head-on with the Spirit Race and is definitely a good seedling for the martial dao,” said the burly man in a heavy voice.
“That’s right. Master Hai, the academies would always fight for geniuses. I believe you, sir, know this rule better than us. Unless you can give him better conditions, it’s impossible for us to let you bring him away.”
“I also agree.”
Chi Tianjiao and the middle-aged general spoke together.
For a time, four great academies were vying for Feng Lin. No one was willing to take a step back and this caused numerous gazes in the surroundings to turn here.
Many of the students wanted nothing more than to replace Feng Lin themselves.
The Mythology Academy?
Feng Lin pondered.
Given the name, it should be an academy that specialized in researching mythologies.
Although Feng Lin’s expertise was exactly this, the Great Wall University was one of the top ten universities in the cosmos. Their foundations would surely be extremely deep and there might be some inheritance objects from the various ancient mythologies in the academy that could verify the knowledge he had regarding mythologies. Maybe, he might even be able to find more truths about ancient cultivation pathways.
Seeing that he was still hesitating, the people from the four academies exchanged mutual glances and respectively gave out more promises.
“Feng Lin, as long as you join the War Academy, all conditions are negotiable.” Chi Tianjiao promised. “The War Academy is the number one academy of the Great Wall University. Experts in there are as common as clouds, and there are many monstrous geniuses of the younger generation as well. If you learn from them, it would only benefit your growth, allowing your cultivation speed to increase!”
But when Feng Lin heard this, a frown creased his face. Although Chi Tianjiao’s words sounded good, his tone made him seem extremely lofty. Feng Lin could detect arrogance from him.
He had his own path to walk, why should he compare himself to others?
Learning from others?
What a joke.
Feng Lin knew very well which path he wanted to walk. Although he didn’t know if there would be anyone in the future who walked on the same path as him, he knew for sure that no one had walked this path before him save for the progenitor of this path, Sun Wukong.
This was a lonely path. No one could provide any guidance to him, and he could only depend on himself.
Feng Lin cast a deep glance at Chi Tianjiao. Chi Tianjiao had a look of absolute confidence on his face like he was sure Feng Lin would definitely agree.
However, he had no idea that Feng Lin had already eliminated the War Academy as a choice the moment he spoke.
At this moment, the middle-aged man also spoke. “Feng Lin, the Gene Academy is focused on research about gene evolution and the knowledge of how to put the genetic abilities to good use. It involved all aspects of genomics. If you want to proceed further on your mythology path, the Gene Academy is undoubtedly your best choice. We can also give you a special-grade scholarship, please consider us seriously!”
The burly man also spoke up, “Feng Lin, fighting is a man’s romance. The Martial Academy pursues the martial dao to temper the human body, achieving an evolution in terms of the tiers of life. We don’t depend on external strength, only focusing on our bodies, training it to reach a level equal to universe lifeforms. If you enter our Martial Academy, the special-grade scholarship is naturally yours, and you wouldn’t lack contribution points too. There would also be a variety of rare and valuable cultivation resources for you.”
The other two also spoke up at this moment, giving him the same conditions, wanting to acquire Feng Lin no matter what.
However, Feng Lin didn’t immediately give his reply. He turned his gaze to the Master Hai of the Mythology Academy.
Master Hai smiled and he had a kind and amicable look on his face. “Feng Lin, the Mythology Academy is the academy with the weakest authority in the Great Wall University. Other than a special-grade scholarship, we won’t be able to give you too many things. However, I can make a promise to grant you an extremely valuable thing.”
“What are you referring to?” Feng Lin involuntarily asked.
“Freedom!” Master Hai laughed.
“Freedom?” Feng Lin was bewildered.
Master Hai nodded, confirming his words.
“That’s right, freedom. Absolute freedom!”
