Chapter 20: Seeing Frost
Song Ling also tilted her ears, listening to Jiang Jian's answer.
Jiang Jian shook his head and said: "I don't know much about these God-Given universities."
Du Fang looked at the proctors not far away and said: "I heard that within Linjiang Prefecture, quite a few God-Given universities are rushing over."
"We are all Level 3 talents, the news has already spread, no need to rush to choose a school."
Song Ling nodded and said: "Just now my teacher also sent a communication, telling me not to choose a God-Given university yet!"
While speaking.
Jiang Jian heard a prompt in his ears and also received a communication.
He lowered his head and looked at his identity device.
He hadn't paid attention just now.
Now counting carefully.
Among the unread messages, there were actually dense, nearly a hundred communications!
Most of them.
Were congratulatory messages sent by classmates from Guangling No. 1 High School.
There were also well-intentioned reminders sent by school teachers.
"This is!"
"The Zhao family's communication!"
Suddenly.
Jiang Jian saw a communication that was somewhat special.
The signature on it.
Was Zhao family, Zhao Chenshuang.
Jiang Jian raised his eyebrows and clicked on this message.
Zhao Chenshuang's dull voice came out.
"Jiang Jian, your engagement with my sister is, after all, an agreement between elders; you and I breaking our promise in private really doesn't count."
Further back.
There was also a long string of Zhao Chenshuang reading a script.
Obviously insincere flattery.
Jiang Jian couldn't be bothered to continue reading.
After thinking for a moment, he replied.
"Young Lady Zhao, you keep saying you want me to return your sister's freedom."
"As you wish, the God-Witness Contract has already been dissolved."
"I am clear with your Zhao family, and we owe each other nothing."
After sending the communication.
Jiang Jian threw Zhao Chenshuang's message directly into the trash folder.
Guangling City, God-Illumination District, Zhao family.
In the luxurious hall.
Dozens of well-dressed Zhao family members sat on both sides of the long table, their expressions extremely gloomy.
Zhao Chenshuang sat on the lower left side.
She raised her head, looking at Jiang Jian on the giant screen, her expression complex.
Beep!
The communication rang!
Immediately.
All the core clansmen of the Zhao family turned their heads.
Looking at Zhao Chenshuang, their gazes burning!
Zhao Chenshuang glanced at the identity device and saw the communication Jiang Jian replied with.
Immediately, her eyes were about to split, and she was so angry that her heart fire rose.
"Young Lady, what did Jiang Jian reply?"
Beside her, a clansman asked urgently, "Did he agree to re-establish the marriage contract with Young Lady Zhao Jianxue?"
Zhao Chenshuang said coldly: "Shut up!"
The clansman's expression was ugly, but he didn't dare to say more.
"Presumptuous!"
A roar rang out!
Hearing the reprimand.
Zhao Chenshuang shrank her neck immediately, her face showing fear.
The Zhao family head sitting in the seat of honor had a cold expression and said coldly: "Why don't you make the communication public!?"
Zhao Chenshuang bit her lip and unwillingly made the communication public.
"Young Lady Zhao, you keep saying you want me to return your sister's freedom."
"As you wish, the God-Witness Contract has already been dissolved."
"I am clear with your Zhao family, and we owe each other nothing."
Jiang Jian's voice echoed in the quiet hall.
Boom!
The Zhao family head stood up with a bang and slapped the long table in front of him to pieces!
"Zhao Chenshuang!"
His gaze was cold and piercing, staring fixedly at Zhao Chenshuang, "You stupid pig!"
"Nearly a million Alliance coins, thrown away by you!"
"That's not all!"
"Most importantly!"
"A Level 3 'Art' talent, the supreme prodigy who topped the Grand Exam!"
"Actually let go by you so easily!"
"My Zhao family has a God-Witness Contract with him!"
"This is an irresistible God-Contract!"
"If it weren't for you being clever, showing off outside, raising the price to eighty thousand Alliance coins, and dissolving the God-Witness Contract..."
"Then this Level 3 talent, Jiang Jian with a perfect score in the Grand Exam, would already be a member of my Zhao family!"
Speaking to this point.
The Zhao family head hammered his knees hard, his face showing regret.
"I shouldn't have, I shouldn't have taken out forty thousand Alliance coins and let you handle this!"
"Why so hasty, why couldn't you wait until after the God-Given Grand Exam!"
"Why!"
He hung his head, his tone muttering.
Seeing this scene.
The other Zhao family members looked at each other, sighed, and walked out of the hall one after another.
Level 3 talent, no matter where it was placed, could not be ignored.
There was only one reason!
That was that people with Level 3 talent, almost 100 percent, could step into the next realm!
Level 3 talent could get massive resource support from the God-Given university and the prefecture government where they were located!
Plus, their own God-Given talent.
Breaking the shackles of the "God-Given Realm" was equivalent to a sure thing!
God-Given Realm, the first realm of cultivation.
Every adult was in the God-Given Realm!
But the next realm.
99 percent of people hadn't even heard its name!
The vast Guangling City.
God-Illumination District and Shadow District combined, over a million people.
Among them.
There were only a few dozen people who had broken the shackles of the "God-Given Realm"!
"Zhao family..."
"The opportunity for prosperity right in front of our eyes, missed just like that..."
Zhao Chenshuang looked at her father, her expression complex.
But more so.
She was still feeling sorry for her Alliance coins.
As a student of Anhe Academy.
The resource fees Zhao Chenshuang used for cultivation every year exceeded one hundred thousand Alliance coins!
But now.
She had not only spent all this money, but was also burdened with a loan of over ten thousand!
Although she had secretly taken some money from the Zhao family treasury.
But Zhao Chenshuang could already foresee.
The frugal life she was about to face when she returned to Anhe Academy.
"It's okay, my Zhao family has a deep foundation, controlling the array business in Guangling City, a little money can be earned back soon..."
Zhao Chenshuang comforted herself in her heart.
But in the giant screen of the hall.
On the Flying Light Terrace that attracted everyone's attention.
That giant leaderboard, every moment.
Was reminding Zhao Chenshuang.
Jiang Jian was a Level 3 talent.
In the end.
Zhao Chenshuang no longer had a mental victory, gave up struggling completely, and slumped in her chair.
In her mind, there were only four words, back and forth.
"Level 3 talent..."
"Level 3 talent..."
"Go to hell!"
On the Flying Light Terrace.
Jiang Jian picked up the identity device.
Looking at the latest communication sent by Zhou Yu.
"Jiang Jian, don't agree to any university's invitation for now!"
Zhou Yu's tone was firm, obviously having learned some news.
"Whether it's Anhe Academy or Luoying Academy, they are just ordinary God-Given universities!"
"They have almost no experience in supporting Level 3 talents!"
"Level 3 talent should go to a better God-Given university!"
Seeing this.
Jiang Jian thought for a moment and replied: "I understand, Teacher Zhou."
Putting down the identity device.
The teachers of the examination board had already walked onto the high ceremony platform.
"Student Jiang Jian!"
Li Huhai walked over, his expression excited, "I am Li Huhai, the Education Management Director of Guangling City Government!"
"I represent the Guangling City Government to express my gratitude to you!"
"You not only got a double perfect score this time, but you are also a rare Level 3 'Art'!"
"Together with Song Ling and Du Fang, you have brought great honor to my Guangling City!"
Li Huhai walked to Jiang Jian's side, "Starting next year, Guangling City will receive countless resource allocations!"
"Thank you, three students!"
Speaking to this point.
He actually bent his body.
Bowing to Jiang Jian, Du Fang, and Song Ling.
"Director Li!"
Du Fang hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
Suddenly.
The Flying Light Terrace array made a roar and started slowly!
"Spots fixed!"
"Students who passed the line, start choosing schools!"
"Rank 46, Ji Ming!"
The cold mechanical voice spread across the Flying Light Terrace!
"Starting from me?"
Ji Ming was called by name, opened his mouth wide, and pointed at himself.
The teachers of the examination board looked over and nodded.
On the ground, array patterns intertwined.
Gradually revealing the phantoms of three giant schools.
Each God-Given university's architecture was towering, beautiful, and imposing.
"Anhezhou, Anhe Academy!"
"Linchuan Prefecture, Linchuan University!"
"Luoying Prefecture, Luoying Academy!"
Under each giant building phantom, there was a long introduction to the school.
Ji Ming raised his head to look, his gaze dazed.
A moment later.
He thought of the communication he received in his identity device.
Inside the message, it promised him rich resources.
Ji Ming gritted his teeth and said: "I choose Luoying Academy!"
The Flying Light Terrace array shook.
Light flows intertwined and merged into Ji Ming's identity device!
"Luoying Academy admission notice has been sent to your identity device!"
"Congratulations to Student Ji Ming for getting into a God-Given university, Luoying Academy!"
Hearing this.
The proctor sent by Luoying Academy nodded with satisfaction.
To him.
Every student who passed the line was his performance.
