Chapter 42: The Division of Geniuses (Please follow)

Jiang Tao and Lin Qi were also unusually curious; their family backgrounds were ordinary or even poor, and various information on the internet was difficult to distinguish between true and false.

So they needed someone they could trust to explain it to them.

Zhang Cheng operated his smart watch and projected a big screen, which was full of pictures and text, and he also organized his language and said:

"After the Tianhai monthly exam every year, major martial arts halls will successively sign contracts with geniuses from various schools."

"The contract is not a genius loan."

"The genius loan is essentially a loan; the money you spend now needs to be repaid in the future, just without interest."

"And the martial arts hall contract is a kind of investment behavior, giving you money in advance to use to improve your strength, and in the future, you will enter the martial arts hall to earn profits."

Everyone nodded; this was about the same as what they understood, and no one would hate contracts, all longing to sign better contracts.

Zhang Cheng continued: "There are countless martial arts halls in our Xia country, and behind them are major groups."

"In the next few days, they will successively find you to conduct contract negotiations."

"And the strength of the martial arts halls is also divided into good and bad; the contracts given by ordinary martial arts halls, although there is money, have many rules, and the help provided is limited, so the cost-effectiveness is not high."

"This is only suitable for students with ordinary talent."

"And as students of the Elite Class, your goal is the three major top martial arts halls."

"Cangqiong, Heiyao, Chongming, the three major top martial arts halls, were founded by the Ninth Realm title-level martial practitioners of our Xia country, possessing not only wealth that rivals a country, but also heaven-reaching martial power and power."

"Signing with the three major top martial arts halls, not only is the contract freer, the signing amount is higher, but the treatment is also better."

"So geniuses with ambition will not refuse the contracts of the three major martial arts halls," Zhang Cheng said here, showing a smile.

The onlookers' heartbeats also accelerated; signing with the three major martial arts halls meant a bright future.

"However, not all of you can sign with the three major top martial arts halls."

"I remember in the previous session, only 30 people successfully signed," Zhang Cheng poured a basin of cold water on everyone.

Many people's hearts instantly cooled.

"I'm 37th, so I can't sign with the three major martial arts halls?" someone sighed.

Some people's faces were also not good; they were all ranked after 30th.

"Of course, you are more excellent than the previous session, so maybe there will be more places to sign," Zhang Cheng rarely comforted them at this time.

"The three major top martial arts halls have divided geniuses into seven grades, the lowest D-level, the highest SSS-level."

"Among them, S-level, SS-level, and SSS-level have nothing to do with you; those are prepared for geniuses who have awakened special abilities."

Special ability?

Everyone heard this and their expressions were complex; Lin Qi was the same; they only saw such geniuses in the news, and they were too far away from them.

"What has to do with you are the four grades of A, B, C, and D."

"Even the lowest D-level contract can obtain millions in money and precious resources."

"Of course, signing with a martial arts hall is a long-term process; as long as you work hard and improve your ranking, you can also sign a contract, or even upgrade the contract."

"Ding ling ling!"

"Alright, class dismissed, dismissed!"

Seeing that it was just time for class to end, Zhang Cheng let everyone be dismissed, and he also tidied up his things and turned to leave the martial arts classroom.

And while everyone was tidying up their things, they also chatted excitedly.

A group of people walked towards the cafeteria, chatting about the contract:

"I want to sign a D-level contract, but I'm afraid it's difficult."

"Who do you think in our class can sign an A-level contract? It is said that only a very few geniuses are qualified to sign," someone asked curiously.

"I guess only Li Zhou has a great chance to sign, Yu Jing and Qi Qi Yue Lin also have a chance, others are at most B-level contracts," someone said.

This won the approval of others.

Cafeteria Second Floor

Lin Qi sat down with a small mountain-like meal tray and ate heartily.

"Lin Lin Qi Ge, which martial arts hall do you plan to sign with?"

Jiang Tao opposite him ate a few mouthfuls and asked curiously.

Lin Qi shook his head: "I don't know, it depends on how to talk to them and the content of the contract."

Jiang Tao nodded excitedly: "I guess I can only sign a B-level contract; A-level is out of the question."

"Even if it's a B-level contract, there are millions of Xia currency, so I won't be short of money for the third year of high school."

"However, Lin Lin Qi Ge, whichever martial arts hall you go to, I will go to that one," Jiang Tao added at the end.

"Okay!" Lin Qi didn't refuse.

Evening self-study, Principal's Office

"Old Jiang, what's the matter that you called me over too? I still want to rest well."

Zhang Cheng complained as he entered the door and sat on the sofa.

"Teacher Yan, you're here too?"

"This time, there are three people who need to apply for an increase in their genius loan level. Old Zhang, I need to ask for your opinion."

"Who are they?" Zhang Cheng asked after taking a sip of tea.

"Jiang Tao, applying for a special-grade genius loan."

"Lin Qi, applying for a second-grade genius loan!"

"Chen Zichuan, applying for a second-grade genius loan!"

After Jiang Zhiguang finished speaking, he and Yan Hong looked at Zhang Cheng's reaction together.

"Those three, huh!" Zhang Cheng rolled his eyes.

A moment later, he grinned and said, "Their talent is quite good; there is no problem with applying like this."

"However!"

"However what?" Jiang Zhiguang asked.

!

"I think Lin Qi's application can be changed; he should apply for a first-grade genius loan."

"No, I suggest applying directly for a special-grade genius loan," Zhang Cheng said seriously.

Jiang Zhiguang was stunned: "You are even more exaggerated than what Yan Hong said. Does this Lin Qi actually make you think so highly of him?"

Yan Hong spoke up: "Lin Qi improved by 17 places in this month's exam; his talent goes far beyond this."

Zhang Cheng also spoke: "I don't understand academics, but in martial arts class, his comprehension far exceeds others."

"I dare say that in the midterm assessment, his ranking will continue to rise significantly."

"Agreed!" Yan Hong nodded.

After hearing this, Jiang Zhiguang nodded: "I understand. I will apply for the special-grade genius loan, but whether the application can pass will depend on luck."

After the two left,

Jiang Zhiguang quickly operated the documents and submitted the three application forms.

After submitting them, he opened Lin Qi's file again to check his grades and family background.

"Lin Qi, interesting. Improving from over 100th place to 18th in the grade in three months—the progress is incredibly fast."

"Could it be a case of accumulating knowledge and slowly breaking through, or has he finally had a breakthrough in understanding?"

Jiang Zhiguang muttered to himself, habitually watering the flowerpot.

"Eh, it sprouted?"

Jiang Zhiguang was pleasantly surprised to see the flowerpot. A bit of green had appeared in the brown soil.

……

Rongshan Residential District, Lin family, living room.

"Dad, I entered 18th place in the grade in the monthly exam, and in the Star activity..."

Lin Qi saw Lin Zhen on the other side through a video call and told him the good news.

Lin Zhen was shocked after hearing the news. How long had it been, and his son had already entered the top 20 of the grade?

After the shock, the corners of his mouth couldn't stop smiling: "As expected of my son!!"

"Dad, are you doing well at the Linhai Base?"

Lin Qi asked.

"Haha, I'm naturally doing very well. It's just that I'm quite busy, but I am indeed earning more than before," Lin Zhen laughed heartily.

"……"

A few minutes later, Lin Qi handed the phone to his mother, Fang Huiyi, and he went back to wash up.

After he came out, Fang Huiyi had also hung up the phone.

Lin Qi took several boxes out of his room and placed them on the table:

"Mom, I forgot to give these to you when I called just now."

"These are some supplements I bought; they are good for your health."

Fang Huiyi smiled and shook her head as she took the boxes: "You're wasting money again."

After saying that, she looked at the boxes, and her expression changed slightly.

"This is the Lotus set; one box costs twenty thousand. It's too expensive."

"Mom, I'm not short of money now; I can afford some supplements," Lin Qi comforted her.

"Alright then!" Fang Huiyi accepted them.

"Mom, I've grown up. I want to know how much money our family actually owes."

Lin Qi's expression became serious, and he looked into his mother Fang Huiyi's eyes as he asked.
