Chapter 49 Invitation from Budo University
Last September.
When Mr. Xu Bo was helping Li Yuan to secure a second-class scholarship, he promised that as long as he ranked in the top ten in the grade, he would be awarded a first-class scholarship of 100,000 Blue Star Coins.
If you rank among the top five in your grade, you will be awarded a special scholarship of 500,000 Blue Star Coins.
"Just one person missing." Li Yuan sighed.
He didn't feel disappointed at all, as he had done his best and there was no need to worry about it.
You can't always expect others to perform poorly.
"That's enough."
"At least, I can get 100,000 Blue Star Coins." Li Yuan thought: "Besides, I met Hall Master Zuo in the Martial Hall a few days ago. Hall Master Zuo said that the commendations and rewards from the Martial Arts Hall and the Martial Hall will soon arrive, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of money."
Li Yuan still has a lot of Blue Star Coins and Martial Hall Points in his bank account.
But his martial arts training was like a gold mine, and his money was spent quickly.
Naturally, we have to find a way.
"Li Yuan, keep it up." Teacher Chen on the podium glanced at Li Yuan and continued, "I hope other students can learn more from Li Yuan."
"I will read out the martial arts scores of other people. Listen carefully."
"Li Tianyou, 685 points." Teacher Chen said.
Li Tianyou followed closely behind Li Yuan and ranked second in the class in martial arts performance.
However, although he ranked second, the score gap between him and Li Yuan was astonishing.
"685 points?" Li Tianyou's expression eased slightly.
But it’s not very good-looking.
685 points, plus his cultural conversion score of 59 points, the total martial arts score is only 744 points. With this score, his hope of being admitted to a martial arts university is still very slim.
"Am I not working hard enough?" Li Tianyou secretly clenched his fists, feeling rather unwilling: "If I could have more training resources and more guidance from teachers, my score would definitely be much higher."
Li Tianyou is not stupid.
He practiced madly and even his body could hardly bear it. He was clear-headed despite occasional kind reminders from other classmates.
But what can I do if my family doesn’t have that much money?
"Gu Yaoyao, 664 points." Teacher Chen continued to read out the scores.
The martial arts performance of most students is average, without much ups and downs.
Practicing martial arts requires talent and even more resources.
When it comes to academic exams, there are occasionally flashes of inspiration and extraordinary performance.
So, there are only two possibilities in martial arts assessment: normal performance and abnormal performance. There is no such thing as extraordinary performance.
Strong is strong, weak is weak.
……
After reporting the scores, the test papers will be distributed and the questions will be explained.
Li Yuan listened very carefully.
"I have little time for academic subjects, so I have to study hard in class." Li Yuan thought very carefully: "If I want to be admitted to the top five universities, I have to strive for every point. If I can get a few more points in academic subjects, my hope will be even greater."
One point can defeat a thousand men, and that is no false statement.
Like Li Yuan this time.
The total martial arts score was able to exceed 900 points, and the -point increase in cultural conversion points played an indispensable role.
……
In a blink of an eye, it was ten o'clock and there was a fifteen-minute break between classes.
Teacher Chen first posted the three report cards on the "report column" next to the blackboard, then turned around and said, "Li Yuan, Li Tianyou, Wang Zihan, the three of you come with me to the office."
"Everyone else, get out of class is dismissed."
immediately.
Crash~ The classmates in the class have rushed to the score column like a tide and started to look at their rankings.
Just now, Teacher Chen only reported the scores and did not read out the entire ranking.
The posted report card will indicate grade level, district ranking, and city ranking.
"It's secured! Top 10,000 in the city."
"Fuck, one point difference, the city ranking difference is more than 100 places? Are there so many beasts?"
"Oh, I'm going to be scolded by my parents again when I get home."
"I didn't perform well this time. My total score in cultural studies only ranked 13th in the grade, not even in the top 10."
The students discussed with each other, some were happy and some were sad, but most were dissatisfied. Most of them were thinking, "If I can get five points higher in this subject and ten points higher in another subject, my ranking will definitely be..."
Li Yuan, Li Tianyou and others have followed Teacher Chen to her office.
Li Yuan was very calm, but Li Tianyou and Li Tianyou were very nervous.
"You two wait outside first." Teacher Chen ordered: "Li Yuan, come in with me."
After entering the office, Teacher Chen sat down and sorted the papers while greeting the teachers around him, as if he had forgotten Li Yuan's existence.
This is a common method used by veteran teachers to educate students.
First leave the students alone for a while, occasionally give them a cold look, and continue to ignore them, which will make the students more and more panicked.
In the end, the students admitted their mistakes all on their own without the teacher even saying anything.
but.
When you are called into the office alone after a major exam, there are usually only two possible scenarios: huge progress or huge setbacks.
Li Yuan believes that he is the former.
"Cough~ cough~" Li Yuan coughed and reached out to pick up the water cup: "Teacher, the water is cold, I'll add some hot water for you."
Without waiting for Teacher Chen to respond, Li Yuan picked up the cup and walked towards the water dispenser.
Li Yuan first poured out the cold water, then added hot and cold water again, estimating the appropriate temperature by feel.
Fill the cup with water and turn the lid slightly.
He wiped the water stains on the surface of the cup with a tissue, returned to his desk, and gently placed the cup on Teacher Chen's left hand side.
Most people are used to holding the cup with their left hand and screwing the lid with their right hand.
"Teacher, the water temperature is just right." Li Yuan said with a smile, "How about drinking some first?"
"You!" Teacher Chen watched the whole process, shook his head and laughed, but it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
Teachers actually like students who are good at dealing with things and have sweet words. "I called you here for something." Teacher Chen picked up the water cup and said while drinking water, "You did well in the exam this time, sixth in the grade, especially your martial arts skills score. In previous years, you could have competed for the top score in a single subject in the city."
Li Yuan listened.
"It's a pity that this year, the Normal College Affiliated High School has a genius student." Teacher Chen said with some regret: "He got full marks in martial arts skills."
"Perfect skills?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised.
The physical fitness score is 500 points, and the full score requirement is a physical fitness level of .
The martial arts skill is worth 400 points. Li Yuan is not sure about the requirement, but he guessed that it should require four levels of skills.
"What's your name?" Li Yuan couldn't help but ask.
"Wu Dongdong." Teacher Chen said, "He also ranked first in the city's total martial arts score in this January exam. His martial arts score is 900 points, and his total martial arts score is 1077 points."
“Full marks in two items? That’s amazing!” Li Yuan exclaimed sincerely.
This is an extremely exaggerated result.
It’s much more exaggerated than Lin Lanyue’s results.
A martial arts score of 900 points means that the opponent's physical fitness is at least level and his academic performance is also good.
The Affiliated High School of the Normal College has always been the best high school in Jiangcheng City and is well-known throughout the country. It is normal for such a martial arts genius to emerge.
Actually.
Li Yuan was not surprised at all that someone could surpass him by far.
You know, Wudian signed the contract in advance, and the highest level of the contract was S-level, which means someone must have signed it.
Even if Li Yuan awakens his martial arts spirituality, he is only qualified to sign an A-level contract.
There is never a shortage of geniuses in this world. This is something Li Yuan has understood since he was a child.
"Don't worry about others."
"You are actually pretty good." Teacher Chen said, "After the January adjustment exam, in early March, Jiangbei Martial Arts University will have a 'visit invitation event'. Our school has ten places. The top ten students in the total martial arts exam in January can all go."
"Are you willing to go?" Teacher Chen looked at Li Yuan.
"An invitation from Jiangbei Martial Arts University?" Li Yuan was stunned.
"Yes, they will invite elite martial arts students from all over the city or even the province, estimated to be nearly a thousand, for five days." Teacher Chen smiled and said, "If the professors at the school take a fancy to you and think you are suitable for training, they will immediately invite you to the Martial Arts University after the college entrance examination, and start special training during the summer vacation."
"Martial arts training is different from cultural studies after all. The three months at your age are very important. If used properly, it will be enough to greatly improve your martial arts strength."
"Yeah." Li Yuan nodded.
Indeed, starting from the age of sixteen, as the body develops and the Qi and blood become abundant, the martial arts skills will advance by leaps and bounds.
"Teacher, my college entrance exam goal is 'Kunlun Martial Arts University'." Li Yuan said.
The five famous martial arts schools in Xia Country are named Xiajing, Nanhai, Kunlun, Donghai, and Jixing respectively.
Kunlun Martial Arts University has the largest number of admissions in Jiangbei Province each year and is the first choice for top martial arts students in Jiangbei Province.
"I know."
"Kunlun Martial Arts University, if you can get in, it will definitely be the first choice. Your grades are good enough for you to be admitted, but you haven't awakened your martial arts spirituality. Are you 100% sure?" Teacher Chen asked Li Yuan.
Li Yuan couldn't help but remain silent.
"Your goal is to get into Kunlun Martial Arts University, but Jiangbei Martial Arts University is your backup. It won't do you any harm to visit and get to know the teachers there." Teacher Chen put down his water cup: "Is that right?"
Li Yuan couldn't help but nod, what Teacher Chen said actually made sense.
"Okay, I'll send the application form and specific itinerary to you via WeChat. Fill it out and sign it for me." Teacher Chen said, "By the way, after the school mobilization meeting this afternoon, your scholarship for being in the top ten of your grade will be sent to your account. Remember to check."
"Okay, thank you, Teacher." Li Yuan nodded.
For a large-scale exam like this, if the total martial arts score is in the top ten in the grade, there will be 5,000 Blue Star Coins and a few bottles of Qi and Blood potions as scholarship rewards.
At the same time, he can also get an independent martial arts room, but Li Yuan already has one.
……
Among the three, the last one to enter the office was Li Tianyou, who was much more nervous than Li Yuan.
"Teacher." Li Tianyou came to the desk.
"It's okay. I called you here not to criticize you. You did well in the exam this time." Teacher Chen smiled and said, "Remember what I told you last time about applying for the third-class scholarship?"
Li Tianyou's eyes lit up.
"This time, your exam results combined with your family background... your application was successful." Teacher Chen smiled and said, "I know you work very hard, but you also need to balance work and rest. Don't work too hard. The 20,000 yuan scholarship will be deposited into your account today."
"Thank you, Teacher." Li Tianyou was quite excited, his eyes slightly red.
"Okay, go ahead. Don't tell anyone about this. Just keep it to yourself." Teacher Chen stood up, patted Li Tianyou on the shoulder, and watched him leave.
Sit back in the chair.
Teacher Chen's smile disappeared, and he opened the smart ring meter, staring at the document on it in a daze - "Review opinion on the application for the third-class scholarship: Not approved."
"Hey."
Teacher Chen sighed softly.
After thinking about it, he forwarded the document to Xu Bo.
She and Xu Bo made this scholarship application for Li Tianyou.
……
After lunch, Li Yuan returned to the martial arts room 4011 and directly entered the virtual network cabin.
Consciousness connection.
"Personal space." Li Yuan stood in the empty personal space and checked the invitation letter from Jiangbei Martial Arts University:
Dear Li Yuan...
"It's all nonsense." Li Yuan frowned and quickly scanned the first few pages.
Suddenly, Li Yuan stopped abruptly and stared at the itinerary.
Day 4 schedule: Practical assessment: hunting astral creatures.
……
Thought about it for a while.
Li Yuan quickly filled out his information.
Electronic signature.
Click to accept the invitation!
"Hope, don't let me down." Li Yuan murmured to himself, and his consciousness left the virtual network.
