“Alright, stop bickering!”

Qin Tianhao stepped forward, suppressing the quickly escalating scene.

“It’s no use arguing amongst ourselves. Qiao Yu, the choice of which university to join is yours.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the heads of the various universities all looked at Qiao Yu with anticipation.

They all hoped to bring such a genius under their wing.

“Um, I choose…”

Qiao Yu hadn’t finished speaking when Ji Pingyang interrupted him.

“Wait a minute, Qiao Yu, do you know Qiao Anqing?”

Qiao Yu’s emotions instantly surged!

Qiao Anqing, he hadn’t heard this name in twelve years!

He rushed forward, grabbing Ji Pingyang’s arms, and asked with urgency.

“Principal Ji, have you seen my father? Do you know where he is?”

Ji Pingyang smiled wryly and shook his head.

“Your father, Qiao Anqing, and your mother, Liu Pingwan, were both my students. I haven’t seen them in over a decade either.”

“No wonder I felt such a sense of familiarity when I first saw you. You have your father's eyes and brows!”

So, my parents used to study at Kyoto University, Qiao Yu thought, his mind racing.

Regardless, he had finally found a trace of his parents.

“Principal Ji! I’ll join Kyoto University!” Qiao Yu said without hesitation.

The other prestigious universities’ presidents exchanged glances, revealing a helpless smile.

Ji Pingyang had the advantage of Qiao Yu’s parents’ connection; how could they compete with that?

With a blur of figures, they began to leave one after another.

Their arrival was originally to compete for Qiao Yu. Now that Qiao Yu had decided to join Kyoto University, there was no point in them staying any longer.

Before long, only Ji Pingyang was left on the scene.

He looked at Ma Fei and the others.

“Since you all came from the same class, why not join Kyoto University together? That way, you can look after each other in the future.”

Ma Fei and the others naturally had no reason to refuse. This was a guaranteed opportunity to get into Kyoto University; who could reject such a chance?

“Principal Ji, I have some questions I’d like to ask you,” Qiao Yu said, stepping forward.

“If it's about your parents, there’s no need to ask. I don’t know much either. I can only tell you that your parents were very impressive people.”

Ji Pingyang sighed and said.

Qiao Yu was silent for a moment, then nodded.

“Thank you, Principal Ji.”

Before leaving, Ji Pingyang took a deep look at Qiao Yu, some words he couldn't bring himself to say.

Two adults had disappeared without a trace for more than a decade; the probability was that they were already…

The five genius students from Fourth High School were ultimately taken into the fold by Kyoto University, and Peng Liangji’s face was splitting with laughter.

It was Pei Xingguo who got beaten, but it was Peng Liangji who recruited the genius students. This was just too great.

"Little Pei! It's alright, don't be discouraged. I'll let you choose first next time!”

Peng Liangji said, patting Pei Xingguo on the shoulder.

"Get lost!"

Pei Xingguo couldn't have been more depressed at that moment; he felt like he had been force-fed several mouthfuls of shit.

Peng Liangji smiled as he walked toward Qiao Yu and the others, handing each of them a booklet.

“These are the attribute point recommendations and cultivation methods for various professions developed by our Kyoto University’s professionals. It also contains detailed walkthroughs for the exclusive dungeons.”

“You’d better clear your respective profession’s exclusive dungeons before school starts, so you’ll be more valued in the future!”

“The manual also includes a detailed route map from Su City to Kyoto University for registration. You can take a look at it first.”

Qiao Yu took his manual and opened it to browse. The more he looked, the stranger his expression became.

“Necromancer, recommended attribute points: primarily Spirit, secondarily Intelligence.”

“Reasoning: Necromancers are different from traditional mages. Undead creatures are doing the output and taking damage for you, so you only need to cast spells from behind to manage the battlefield; therefore, you don’t need very high casting speed. The strength of the undead creatures is the most important…”

Qiao Yu wryly closed the manual. This manual was useless for him now; he was probably the first Necromancer to put all his points into Strength.

Seeing that Qiao Yu and the others had finished reading the manuals, Peng Liangji smiled and closed the Otherworld Conversion Device.

“Alright, everyone, the admission notices will be sent directly to you through the Otherworld Network once they are made. Good luck! The opening of the Metaverse Era requires the efforts of each and every one of us. Keep it up! See you at Kyoto University!”

After finishing his instructions, Peng Liangji and the other recruitment teachers left one after another.

After watching the recruitment teachers’ car leave, Principal Hong directly pulled all the high school principals in Su City into an Otherworld group chat.

“Ah! We’ve finally sent off the presidents and recruitment teachers from the various prestigious universities. It’s also a burden to cultivate such outstanding students! It’s exhausted this old man who’s about to retire!”

“Old Hong, what nonsense are you talking about? What are the prestigious universities’ presidents doing at your Fourth High School?” another high school principal asked.

“Nothing, nothing. It’s just that Huaqing University’s President Qin Haotian, Kyoto University’s President Ji Pingyang, and the others came to our school to compete to guarantee the admission of my five students. One of them even sent the recruitment teacher flying during the test.”

“Hey! I always teach them to keep a low profile! These kids don’t listen to advice. It’s so annoying! So annoying, hahahahahaha!”

Hong Jianguo finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The principal of First High School left the group chat.

The principal of Second High School left the group chat.

The principal of Third High School left the group chat.

…

On the way back to the classroom, Ma Fei strutted along, wishing he could carve the words "I've been guaranteed admission" on his face.

The envious gazes of his classmates were very pleasing to Ma Fei.

In contrast, Zhao Ziyue seemed a little preoccupied.

Compared to Qiao Yu and the other three, her guaranteed admission felt more like an afterthought.

She could feel this very clearly from the attitude of the recruitment teachers.

She bit her lip, a stubbornness burning in her eyes. She absolutely would not be left behind by Qiao Yu and the others!

“Don’t leave after school! I’ve already told my dad; he’ll drive over to pick us up after school!” After Ma Fei finished speaking, he ran off somewhere to show off.

Qiao Yu didn't see Ma Fei again all afternoon, until he saw Ma Fei walking back with a smug look on his face at the end of school.

Although Ma Fei was shocked by Qiao Yu sending the recruitment teacher flying with a punch, he didn't feel jealous at all.

In his opinion, as long as he leveled up to the point where he could use the Skylight Piercer Sword, defeating Qiao Yu would be a piece of cake.

So, what if Qiao Yu was proud for a few more days?

When Qiao Yu and the others walked to the main entrance, a brand-new Alphard was already parked in front of the school.

Ma Fei stepped forward and opened the car door in a gentlemanly manner.

“Get in, this is my dad’s personal driver, Uncle Fu.”

“Hello, Uncle Fu!”

The others weren't polite with Ma Fei. After greeting the driver, Uncle Fu, they all got into the car.

“Hehe, hello everyone.” Uncle Fu was a middle-aged driver with a very kind smile.

After the car started, Yang Xiangdi looked around and asked with some confusion.

“Ma Fei, why would your family buy a van when you’re so rich? But the seats in this van are quite comfortable! Like sofas, and it even has a starry sky roof!”

Uncle Fu, who was driving in front, shuddered and almost drove the Alphard into the ditch.

What the hell, a van!
