101. Chapter 101: School Exam (Seeking subscriptions)

The Blue Star Federation's college entrance exam is actually divided into two stages.

The first stage is naturally the federal unified exam; whatever score you get is what you get.

However...

After the unified exam, there is a second stage, which is participating in the admission exams of major universities!

In fact, the former is just a threshold; whether you can be admitted mainly depends on the latter!

However, 99.99% of candidates can't even pass the threshold, so they don't need to participate in the school exam and can be sent directly to society or the federal military.

And for each super-top-tier institution, besides meeting the college entrance exam score line, there are many requirements to participate in the school recruitment exam.

Blue Star University is a comprehensive university, and all its departments are very strong.

Holy Armor University favors mecha pilots and mechanics.

Nine Swords Academy leans towards supernatural powers, weapon masters, and so on...

"Taking Blue Star University as an example, it recruits at most one thousand freshmen every year... But this is the total number of people from dozens of departments, including the Martial Arts Department, Mecha Department, Supernatural Department, etc. Even if the Martial Arts Department is a large one, the recruitment quota is only about fifty."

Xia Long said: "Counting the three super-top-tier institutions, that's only a little over one hundred spots... You have to face geniuses from the entire universe, as well as extraterrestrial exchange students! The Fourth Martial Realm is quite remarkable on Fledgling Star, but on Young Qilin Star, it can only be considered excellent... Compared to the two major educational planets, Fledgling Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix, well... it's still considered very excellent, but it's absolutely impossible to be guaranteed admission to a super-top-tier university."

"Geniuses of the appropriate age from the entire universe, fighting for over a hundred spots?"

Fang Xing clenched his fists: "That's quite interesting..."

"Keep it up. Maybe you really can make a run for a super-top-tier institution... Have you set your target? Although you can participate in the recruitment exams of multiple schools, the exam times for some schools conflict... Even if they don't conflict, you might not be able to make it to exams on different planets... Even the most miserable cyborg candidates can't scrape together the money for a spaceship ticket." Xia Long described a cold fact.

"Wait... if a cyborg candidate hasn't reached the Fourth Martial Realm, certified as a professional, and raised their citizenship level, I'm afraid they don't even have the qualifications to buy a ticket, right?"

Fang Xing thought of a question.

"So, cyborg candidates must be very excellent. If they don't have the Fourth Realm, they need a guarantee from their school or a teacher who is a formal professional to obtain the qualification to buy a ticket... They often have fewer opportunities and narrower choices."

Xia Long sighed.

"Starting from Fledgling Star, how long does it take to get to Blue Star?"

Fang Xing suddenly thought of a question and hurriedly checked the spaceship ticketing website.

"Hmm... the price of the cheapest economy class ticket is around two million star dollars, and it takes ten days... Ten days? Is it that short?"

Even for light-speed spaceships, in travel on the scale of star systems, several years or decades is a normal situation.

Even... thousands or tens of thousands of years!

"Because there is a natural wormhole in the Black Mountain Star System that happens to connect to the solar system where Blue Star is located... so you can take a shortcut."

Xia Long answered: "However, the star dollars you have are probably only enough for one trip to Blue Star... If you want to go to the cosmic secret realm where Holy Armor University and Nine Swords Academy are located, it's even further from here, and there's no wormhole, so it requires a long time to transfer... If you submit an application to the principal, I feel you could study at home in your third year, specifically preparing for the exam or traveling."

"No wonder genius candidates need to accept funding... Just this travel expense is too damn pit-like."

Fang Xing sighed.

Yucai High School, at the entrance.

It was time for school to end, and many high school students were coming out in twos and threes.

Bai Lang and Qian Xun were classmates. They didn't know each other before, but now they were on good terms, so they had delayed for some time.

They arrived at the gate and saw a hovering car waiting quietly.

"This is... is there some big shot?"

Qian Xun glanced at the car's smooth lines and the logo on the front. After checking slightly, she gasped: "A hovering car like this costs at least over a million star dollars... The key is that it's hard to get flight permission..."

"Could it be the principal's car?"

Bai Lang gave his own guess.

Just as they were guessing, the car door opened, and a beautiful woman in a suit stepped out.

She looked at Yucai High School with quite a bit of emotion, and seeing Bai Lang and Qian Xun, she immediately greeted them: "Hello, Student Bai Lang, Student Qian Xun!"

"Hello, Teacher!"

Bai Lang and Qian Xun returned the greeting almost subconsciously, and then they were shocked: "Teacher Lan Fei?!"

They had been with Lan Fei for two years and could never have recognized her wrong.

And this wasn't a school classroom, but the outside world!

Therefore, was the person appearing here the real one?

Bai Lang secretly compared Lan Fei with Qian Xun beside him, and his heart trembled.

"Yes..."

Lan Fei smiled: "After all, I taught at this school for many years. Now that I have the opportunity, I wanted to come and take a look..."

"I heard you resigned, Teacher?" Qian Xun was a girl, so she immediately stepped forward and started chattering excitedly.

"Yes, I resigned and became a private secretary."

Lan Fei didn't hide it.

"Private secretary?" Bai Lang was almost filled with righteous indignation.

Which bastard? How could they turn the dream of their group of high school boys into a private possession?

"Yes... he also goes to school here."

Lan Fei answered with a smile. Just as Bai Lang was still guessing who that bastard was, Fang Xing walked out of the school gate. Seeing Lan Fei, his brows couldn't help but furrow: "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to serve the Young Master," Lan Fei answered with a smile, leaving Bai Lang and Qian Xun beside her in a daze.

After Fang Xing got into the car and sped away, they finally came back to their senses.

"What's going on? Isn't Fang Xing a cyborg? How did he suddenly become the young master of a chaebol family?"

Qian Xun opened her mouth wide. She remembered clearly the experience of Fang Xing and Liu Wei being miserable wage earners back then!

"You say..."

A flash of wisdom crossed Bai Lang's eyes: "Could it be that after Fang Xing became famous in the Hundred Star Joint Exam, his biological parents came to find him to acknowledge him?"

After all, those who could provide excellent sperm and eggs back then were all high-level federal figures.

If a biological father suddenly popped up, he could take off on the spot.

Such things, although extremely rare, were not non-existent, and they had even been made into TV dramas, which were very popular among cyborgs...

"Also, ordinary upper-level people probably couldn't access the gestation pod data from back then... unless they were giants and chaebols."

Qian Xun nodded. The two of them looked at the direction where the car disappeared, both sighing a little.

Back then, when they looked at these cyborg classmates, they still had a somewhat superior attitude.

But now, they felt that the world had turned upside down, and they wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into...

In the back seat of the car.

The seats of the flying car manufactured by the Federation were quite comfortable and even had a massage function.

Fang Xing closed his eyes slightly, not bothering to argue with Lan Fei, but instead recalled the details of the 'Giant God Company' he had learned while talking to Xia Long earlier.

"Giant God Company was founded by the legendary martial artist 'Yin Dao Yin'. Yin Dao Yin was one of the earliest martial gods of the Federation. Later, he united with other martial arts masters to establish the 'Martial Artist Association', which contributed greatly to the development of federal martial arts. Therefore, the Yin family mainly passes down martial arts through the family... In its heyday, the Yin family had two martial gods sitting in town, as well as four martial saints... But in the year 620 of the Starry Sky Calendar, the Yin family's ancestor Yin Dao Yin died in battle on the front lines, and the Yin family's power declined somewhat, but there is still a martial god 'Yin Shibao' sitting in town, which cannot be underestimated..."

What made Fang Xing somewhat silent was that this Yin family contract was something Xia Long had fought for by calling and strongly recommending Fang Xing.

Come to think of it, it was still for his own good...

'This Xia Long... I didn't expect him to also come from the Martial Artist Association... Well, martial artists will likely have a relationship with this association...'

'It's just that he was a bit too presumptuous, thinking he was doing it for my own good...'

Fang Xing shook his head in his heart.

It was just like some parents who think they have chosen the best path for their children, which in reality cannot be said to be wrong.

Yet they alone ignored the child's own contradictory, conflicted, sensitive, and suspicious inner heart.

Perhaps they just wanted to experience the wind and rain and suffer the beatings of society...

When they were covered in scars and looked back, they realized that what they had struggled for for many years was not as good as the family arrangement back then...

'But even so, I want to walk my own path!'

He opened his eyes and made a decision: "Lan Fei!"

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

Lan Fei called him Young Master with a charming tone: "This car is self-driving, and the internal soundproofing is very good... Young Master, you can do whatever you want."

"I've decided to refuse to sign with the Giant God Group."

Fang Xing spoke, leaving Lan Fei stunned.

"Refuse? Do you have a better place to go? Or are you dissatisfied with the contract? You can bring it up."

Lan Fei was truly a bit regretful.

In her view, Fang Xing was her most outstanding student, but there were too many geniuses in the Federation, especially among cyborgs!

If he didn't get funding, he would eventually just fade into the crowd and even die on the battlefield!

Therefore, persuading the other party to accept the Giant God Group's funding was indeed for Fang Xing's own good.

"My mind is made up!"

Fang Xing said: "You can contact Yin Huanzhen."

"Young Master Yin has already given instructions. If you refuse, I will still serve you until the end of the third year's second semester..."

Lan Fei answered.

'This Yin Huanzhen, he acts quite magnanimously...'

'However, letting the people below spend a little effort to maintain goodwill with a genius seems like a sure-win deal...'

Just as Fang Xing was sighing, Lan Fei asked curiously: "May I ask, have you found a better partner?"

"No, but I want to try it myself without relying on others..."

Fang Xing answered like this: "I have confidence in my talent!"

Lan Fei was suddenly speechless.

She intuitively felt that this genius would definitely regret it in the future!

Even if martial arts is called the evolutionary path that requires the fewest resources, it still requires resources, especially after reaching a high rank!

'What a pity... This Student Fang will never know what he has actually refused...'

Seeing this, Lan Fei could only sigh in her heart.
