Chapter 174: Chapter 84 Struggle (Part 1) Chapter 174: Chapter 84 Struggle (Part 1) The candidate stepped onto the stage, and suddenly the lights around dimmed, focusing all attention on the candidate at the very center.
This candidate named Jiang Bu wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up straight with effort.
A mechanical electronic voice sounded, broadcasting the candidate’s information throughout the venue.
“Candidate: Jiang Bu, male, place of birth – Void Wind Planet, status – civilian.”
“One of the top hundred choices from the winners’ group, final survival game ranking number 41.”
The highest authorities from the Five Great Colleges dispatched to the Purple Jade Star began to sift through the information of this candidate, collecting various data from the moment of the body condition test phase.
The heads of Dawn Academy and Bonar College looked at each other, neither of them speaking.
The fact that the first candidate to step up was ranked merely 41, if the two institutions from Capital Star expressed interest immediately, it would reflect poorly on their esteemed self-image.
They couldn’t be the ones to initiate.
Besides, their eyes were only fixed on the top twenty!
To be precise, they were indifferent to all the other contestants except for the one or two key seeds.
A candidate of this ranking should be the target of the other three colleges.
Supervisor He from Taoyun Academy was browsing through the report card below, which contained special annotations from their academy.
“This candidate was never injured during the combat period, showing better endurance than strength, but speed is this candidate’s weakness.
wuxiaworld.site
Considering the special circumstances of the survival game, this candidate is a key person of interest for our academy.”
Putting down the report card, Supervisor He looked at the anxiously fidgeting Jiang Bu in the center of the stage, still not speaking.
The real level of this candidate was definitely much higher than just 41, and he wanted to see if any other colleges would step in to compete.
Dawn Academy and Bonar College had clearly indicated withdrawal.
What about Pulan Military Academy?
Their representative looked hesitant; 41st place, after all, was one of the last ten.
Although Pulan could not compare to the two institutions from Capital Star, they also did not want to waste their first pick so easily.
What about Dingchuan Academy?
Ruan Xiongfei’s gaze…
was wandering?
Supervisor He looked back at the stage with a speechless expression.
“Jiang Bu, are you interested in joining Taoyun Academy?
In addition to the stipulated tuition and accommodation fee waiver, Taoyun Academy will also provide four round-trip flights to Void Wind Planet each year, as well as an annual scholarship of 20,000 Star Coins, free meals, and C-level library access.”
The moment these terms were stated, the heads of Dawn and Bonar colleges nearly burst into laughteraEUR”so frugal.
Dawn Academy’s scholarship starts at 80,000 Star Coins, with a cap of 1 million per year per person!
Bonar College’s starting Star Coins are even higher, with funding support from the Councilman of the House of Commons.
As for the library, it’s probably just a selling point of Taoyun Academy, but who cares about an Army Reserve?
Pulan Military Academy ultimately chose to wait and see; they would not offer such terms.
A 41st-ranked candidate with such conditionsaEUR”how would they proceed afterward?
Although the other four academies did not speak up, their attitudes were now very clearaEUR”only Taoyun Academy showed the initiative to accept!
Jiang Bu, his face flushed with excitement, gazed at the kind-smiling Supervisor He, who appeared like a guiding light of wisdom in his life!
“I am willing!”
With both parents being ordinary workers in a machinery factory, no one knew that his physical condition had quietly met the special recruitment standards of the Army Reserve.
His family had originally hoped that he would be lucky enough to get into a B-level college, but he could hardly believe that this desperate attempt had actually borne fruit!
If he told his family that he had been accepted into one of the Five Great CollegesaEUR”Taoyun AcademyaEUR”with such generous conditions, his parents would probably go crazy with joy!
20,000 Star CoinsaEUR”that was an entire year’s earnings for his father, without eating or drinking!
“Very good, Major, you may now announce the results,” Supervisor He Tian said with a smile on his face, looking at the Major across the way.
“Candidate Jiang Bu, please step down and take a seat in the Taoyun Academy area.”
The relatively short candidate, brimming with joy, took his place in the green section representing Taoyun Academy.
No sooner had he sat down than a young teaching assistant approached him to chat, both seeming very pleased with the interaction.
It was a promising start, and the atmosphere on site quickly warmed up.
“Candidate ‘Vito,’ please enter!”
This time it was a tall, slender candidate.
“One of the top hundred candidates of the winner group, ranked 23rd in the final survival contest.”
Being in the winner group and still managing a 23rd place in the face of the loser group’s assaultaEUR”this candidate was certainly worth competing for by the academies.
But at Dawn Academy…
Rank 23, an awkward position indeed~
Let’s give expressing our interest a try.
“At Bonar College, free meals during your time at school, provision of uniforms for summer and winter, twice yearly travel expenses at your discretion, and an annual scholarship of 80,000 Star Coins,” stated the professor, speaking up firstaEUR”this took the person in charge from Dawn Academy by surprise.
Although this offer immediately put the other academies at a disadvantage, he knew that this was likely just a bit more than the baseline offer from Bonar College.
“Dawn Academy offers an annual scholarship of 80,000 Star Coins.”
“Pulan Military Academy’s terms include travel expenses four times a year, an annual scholarship of 60,000 Star Coins, free meals, and the opportunity to take part in trials with our stationed forces abroad twice yearly, with accumulated military merits to be awarded upon graduation.”
Taoyun Academy this time refrained from speaking.
Supervisor He Tian opened the candidate’s data card and found that the candidate’s data looked impressive, but his critical reflexes in emergency situations were less than satisfactory.
A speed advantaged candidate, yet the name did not live up to reality.
Ding Chuan Academy was still in a daze…
This candidate named Vito, without hesitation, chose Dawn Academy, even though Dawn Academy’s offer was merely the least favorable here.
Seeing how resolute the candidate was, the representatives from the other colleges abandoned any plans to pursue further questions.
Although Dawn Academy secured this candidate, their response lacked much joyaEUR”the most basic terms were met; this was not a promising start for them.
The candidate joyfully took his seat, but surrounding Dawn Academy staff were indifferent towards him because the top twenty had not yet appeared.
After two successive picks without missing a candidate, the third one came onto the stage.
Ranked…
fiftieth in the survival contest!
This time the whole venue really grew silent.
None of the Five Great Colleges showed any interest in recruiting him because according to their data, this candidate’s success was purely attributed to luck. Read latest Chapters at Wuxia World.Site Only
His individual abilities did not stand out, and with a significant number of candidates being taken out by the loser group’s sniping ahead of him, the last few simply got lucky.
Thus, in the information cards of all, the last three candidates were deemed destined for universal elimination.
This candidate, who had initially appeared excited, understood his fate as he caught sight of the expressionless faces of the high-ranking officials, and he dejectedly left the stage to enter the secondary selection area, awaiting random allocation.
Random allocation without any additional terms.
“Candidate ‘Flash,’ please enter!”
As this call was made, all five senior college officials, including the daydreaming Ruan Xiongfei, looked on simultaneouslyaEUR”because the name ‘Flash’, though only ranked 18th, represented the only Telekinetic in the entire assembly!
