Chapter 264: Missing the investment in Seeing Yun Shen, poor performance

~7 min read 1,272 words

The search engine soon gave Seeing Yun Shen the answer. According to the excavation and exploration of some archaeologists of the Myriad Races of the Universe, innate gods and demons were the first batch of lords nurtured by this universe.

Since all innate gods and demons were born in the same year, and only one Taboo would be born each year, only Pangu, an innate god and demon, was on the Taboo list.

When Seeing Yun Shen was learning this knowledge, Dongfang Yue, as the principal, had already taken the stage to speak.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Seeing Yun Shen always felt that this fairy seemed to have looked at him specifically just now. Could it be that he was too narcissistic?

"Students, good evening! I am your principal, Dongfang Yue. I am very happy that we can gather together on this night to welcome new tests in the future..."

The welcome party of the Lord High School didn't require standing in line. You could listen or not, and you could even laugh out loud under the stage, and no one would care.

However, it was different from Seeing Yun Shen's previous life. In his previous life, if someone was speaking above, it would be a miracle if one-tenth of the people below were listening.

This principal Dongfang Yue was very beautiful. In anyone's eyes, she could be considered a stunning beauty, with a holy beauty that could be viewed from afar but not profaned, like the Chang'e fairy from the Moon Palace.

The difference is here: no matter if it's boys or girls, who doesn't like to look at beautiful women?

Therefore, quite a few people were listening to Dongfang Yue's speech, but this didn't include Seeing Yun Shen, who was already chatting with the two girls beside him.

"Are you really going back to the Zhao family alone?"

"Yes, Sister Ying, just take Big Brother Yun back. I can solve the matter here."

Seeing Yun Shen heard the conversation between the two girls. The water in the aristocratic family was very deep, and he didn't want to get involved, so he could only silently pray in his heart that Zhao Yunqin would proceed smoothly.

After all, she was a prodigy lord who had passed the Ultimate Campaign. The Zhao family couldn't treat her badly, and there would definitely be compensation. As for what would happen to the people who framed her, it would depend on the background of the relationship.

If this kind of thing happened in the Zhu family, with Zhu Yuanzhang's strict family style, it would mostly be severely punished, at least with a strict whipping or caning.

At the same time, the two lists were also posted on the official website of Tianxing High School and were being read by countless people at the same time.

Fortunately, this was a world with extremely developed technology, so this traffic wouldn't cause the server to lag or crash.

【Newcomer Lord List】

【List of the Fallen】

Once these two lists appeared on the official website, countless people who were refreshing the page started breathing rapidly.

No one was stupid enough to click in and search through them; instead, they used the search function. You just needed to enter the name or ID number.

"It's out, it's out! Hahaha! My son has become a lord!"

"Dead... impossible, my son can't be dead!"

"No! Swallow! What will I do if you die!"

"Damn it, all the students I invested in have gone down the drain. My performance is going to be at the bottom."

"Good, good, good! Great, five people have already become lords. Keep checking! Maybe there will be more than a dozen this year!"

Some are happy and some are sad. The death of children may lead to the breakdown of many families, and failed investments may also cause many people to lose their jobs.

Among this group, a middle-aged man in a suit was checking the list in his hand nervously, crossing out names on the list from time to time.

As time passed, and with the cheers and wails coming from his ears, his face became more and more ugly.

He was one of the angel investors of Penguin. His status and function were, to put it bluntly, no different from sales. His performance was not determined by how much investment he put out, but by how many invested students became lords and the territory shares they gave up.

"Damn, I've checked more than a dozen people, why is there not a single success this year? A bunch of trash!"

Cheng Xianhou cursed, but his hands didn't stop.

Fortunately, he had a background. The vice minister of the Lord Investment Department was his brother-in-law, so he wouldn't be fired no matter how bad his performance was; at most, he wouldn't get this year's bonus.

"The next one is... Xu Xiaojiang. This brat awakened a Superior-grade territory core, and his own talent reached Rare level. He should be able to pass."

Cheng Xianhou clicked search, and the next second the page popped up on the list of the fallen.

"Damn, you could hang up with such a powerful start? You're really trash!"

Cheng Xianhou was about to explode with anger. Xu Xiaojiang was the potential stock with the most investment value among all the students he invested in. After all, he had such a configuration at the start. As long as his luck wasn't too bad or he wasn't courting death, he could basically pass the Newcomer Trial steadily.

If he had had this configuration back then, why would he have failed the Newcomer Trial?

Cheng Xianhou had already prepared to apply for an additional investment for Xu Xiaojiang to exchange for more shares of his territory and improve his performance.

As a result, he didn't expect that Xu Xiaojiang, on whom he had placed high hopes, would just hang up like this.

Cheng Xianhou's mood exploded instantly, and he felt that the whole person was not good.

At the time, he thought he had picked up a leak, but who knew it was a pit.

When Cheng Xianhou entered all the ID numbers on the list, he finally found that among the more than 300 people who successfully became lords, only one succeeded.

Cheng Xianhou's mouth twitched wildly. Thinking of the pressure of mortgage, car loans, and bride price, he had no choice but to start from other aspects.

There was no chance for the original investment, but this didn't mean that this batch of lords who had passed the Newcomer Trial didn't need financing.

Some lords who encountered trouble or wanted to develop their territories quickly would look for investment companies in the Main World for financing.

Especially if they met a few who didn't know the ropes, they might be able to use extremely low funds to cheat for large amounts of territory shares.

After all, they were all newcomer lords who had just stepped into high school. How smart could they be?

Cheng Xianhou clicked on the newcomer lord list. Here you could only see names and avatars, not family background and address, which tested their memory and discrimination ability.

He needed to compete with other colleagues for some lords with ordinary family backgrounds and assets. Whoever won them over would count as their performance.

"Let me see how many prodigy lords there are this year..."

On the newcomer lord list, the prodigy lords who passed the Ultimate Campaign would be ranked at the front, framed with golden horizontal frames, and the order would be based on name spelling, etc.
