Chapter 293: Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym Recruitment! Four Conditions!

"Of course."

A faint smile subtly appeared on Ling Shuang's lovely face.

At the front of the audience seats, Xu Jingming had just stepped off the arena and hadn't yet reacted when Ling Shuang seized his shoulder.

Space flickered, and the three of them vanished from the Magic University audience seats.

"Damn! We were beaten to the punch!"

"I heard Ling Shuang and Su Qingli are close—now I see it's true."

"Indeed, we'll just have to wait until they're done talking."

"Missed the opportunity—what a pity..."

"......"

Many organizations' second-in-command wore expressions of regret.

Of course,

even if the three hadn't used spatial abilities to leave, they wouldn't dare compete with Su Qingli, a ninth-rank Martial Saint...

In the university dormitory district,

in the vice president's villa living room, space flickered, and the three figures of Xu Jingming slowly materialized.

"Xu Jingming, let me introduce you—this is Su Qingli, head of Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym. You've probably heard of her."

Ling Shuang's voice rang out.

Xu Jingming, still recovering from the side effects of spatial transit, finally looked toward Su Qingli across from him.

Even from a distance in the gymnasium, he could tell Su Qingli had a beautiful face.

Now, up close, her exquisitely stunning features were even more breathtaking.

Unlike Song Qiuyun's slightly alluring beauty, this was a purity akin to a celestial fairy.

Combined with the faint, unmistakable aura of a ninth-rank Martial Saint, it made one feel not the slightest trace of disrespect.

After merely glancing at her, Xu Jingming immediately lowered his gaze and respectfully said:

"Headmaster, hello."

"No need for formalities. I'm an old friend of your Vice President Ling. Since you're her student,"

"you're practically my half-student too. Sit down, let's talk slowly."

Unlike her cold appearance, Su Qingli's tone was exceptionally gentle.

It left Xu Jingming slightly surprised.

Last time he met Liu Yushan, another ninth-rank Martial Saint, the man immediately unleashed a psychic intimidation.

That had made him wary of ninth-rank Martial Saints—he'd already prepared himself for similar pressure, only to encounter none at all.

Of course, not having it was even better.

Only after Ling Shuang sat down on the sofa did Xu Jingming take a seat nearby.

Though Su Qingli claimed to be an old friend of Ling Shuang, Xu Jingming still felt safer keeping some distance.

Su Qingli paid no mind to this small gesture of his; as soon as he sat down,

her clear, large eyes turned toward him, brimming with unhidden admiration:

"A third-rank upper-tier martial artist who defeated a fourth-rank upper-tier opponent, proficiently wielding an SS-class ability, and mastering multiple A- and S-class combat techniques."

"Student Xu, you're outstanding."

"And our Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym is precisely in need of talents like you."

"Are you interested in joining us?"

Su Qingli didn't beat around the bush—she stated her purpose outright.

"I haven't graduated from Magic University yet. I haven't considered anything that far ahead," Xu Jingming replied thoughtfully.

He was only a freshman—he still had over three years left in university.

In such a long time, who knows what changes might arise?

He didn't want to lock himself into a future path so early, adding unnecessary constraints.

"Graduation? Actually, if you're willing, you can graduate from Magic University at any time."

Su Qingli's crisp voice rang out again.

"Graduate early? Does Magic University have such a policy?" Xu Jingming blinked in surprise.

"It's possible to apply for early graduation, but it requires school approval," Ling Shuang nodded slightly.

Magic University certainly didn't want a top student like Xu Jingming to leave so soon.

But if he genuinely wished to graduate early, the school would likely not refuse.

"Early graduation is one thing. But I also don't believe you'll stay at Magic University for four full years."

Su Qingli said softly, "Magic University is one of the top universities in Great Xia."

But the resources it provides are only truly valuable to martial artists below the fourth rank."

Once a martial artist reaches the fourth rank, the resources Magic University can offer become extremely limited."

You're already third-rank upper-tier as a freshman."

I don't believe you won't reach the fourth rank within the next three years."

Once you enter the fourth rank, you'll inevitably face the problem of acquiring more resources."

At that point, you won't be able to avoid leaving Magic University."

Resource constraints?

Xu Jingming's gaze sharpened.

Indeed, while Magic University had abundant resources, most were only useful to low-rank martial artists.

Once you reach the fourth rank, the resources in the school's library—requiring massive credit points to purchase—offer abysmal value.

Of course, that's only natural.

University is merely the starting point for martial artists; further advancement usually happens within military legions or guilds.

Students who reach the fourth rank are all fourth-year seniors, so early graduation isn't even a concern for them.

Beside him, Vice President Ling Shuang remained silent, offering no rebuttal.

After all, Su Qingli spoke the truth...

"Magic University imposes many restrictions, but our Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym is different."

"Compared to universities, our sphere of influence is far greater!"

"Our branches span every city in Great Xia, even overseas."

"Within our gym, there are multiple ninth-rank Martial Saints and dozens of eighth-rank Grand Masters—immense strength!"

"Correspondingly, our resource vaults are far richer—we have resources Magic University doesn't, combat techniques Magic University doesn't!"

"More importantly, every headmaster of Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym has been an electric ability user."

"Each headmaster, during their tenure, collected vast numbers of electric combat technique manuals, and even created some themselves."

"Since its founding, Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym has existed for 167 years."

"Including me, there have been three headmasters."

"Thus, our internal combat technique library holds over ten thousand electric combat technique manuals."

"I believe this is precisely what you, as an electric ability user, need..."

As soon as Su Qingli finished speaking, Xu Jingming's eyes lit up.

Because of the Deep Blue System, external resources weren't truly vital to him.

But combat technique manuals were different!

The Deep Blue System couldn't provide them at all!!

While Magic University had many electric combat technique manuals, they couldn't compare to a nationwide powerhouse like Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym.

Sensing the moment was right, Su Qingli immediately presented her terms:

"Xu Jingming, if you're willing to join our Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym, we offer you four conditions:"

"1. One hundred million Great Xia coins monthly in activity funding."

"2. Eligibility to train in Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym's Global Elite Training Camp."

"3. Free access to all combat techniques in Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym, including S, SS, and SSS-class techniques."

"4. You will become my direct disciple, personally trained by me, a Law Saint."
