245: Brothers in misfortune

"Number 10001, Ye Bufan, Extraordinary Talent, Level 4, Weapon, Vajra Angry Fist."

The resonant voice echoed throughout the God-Bestowal Platform.

"Another Level 4 appeared?"

"Our Linhai County had a Level 4 last year, and another one appeared this year. Truly, heaven blesses our Linhai County."

"Ye Bufan, come to me."

Han Jin of Luo Jiang Academy waved at Ye Bufan, drawing envy from the other students, mixed with disappointment.

The Supernatural Awakening was coming to an end.

Currently, Linhai County had twelve students who had Awakened Level 3 Extraordinary Talent, including two Technique Cultivators.

If the entire Linhai County had no Level 4 Extraordinary Talent, then according to the regulations, Luo Jiang Academy would need to select two from those with Level 3 Extraordinary Talent to take away.

This way, they would all have a chance.

Time passed.

The last 100 people also ascended the God-Bestowal Platform.

"Number 8452..."

"..."

"Number 10086, Ji Qin, Extraordinary Talent, Level 2, Medicinal Resonance."

"..."

With that, the 2123 Supernatural Awakening concluded.

Apart from the 160 students who were kept, the remaining 10,000+ students departed.

However, the God-Bestowal Platform did not quiet down because of their departure; the admissions teachers from various Supernatural Universities began to vie for students.

"Student Han Jin, I wonder who the other student recruited by Luo Jiang Academy is?"

Han Jin said indifferently, "Zhang Wen, come over."

Zhang Wen was also a Technique Cultivator, and his entrance exam score was higher than the other Technique Cultivator.

Li Fangnan said, "Senior Han, is it possible to specially recruit Kong Long or Ji Qin? Their Extraordinary Talent is also quite good."

Upon hearing this, Kong Long and Ji Qin immediately felt a glimmer of hope and looked at Han Jin.

Unfortunately, Han Jin shook his head and said, "I don't have any special recruitment quotas."

"We can report this to Director Xu and request a special recruitment quota."

Han Jin said, "Li Fangnan, I know you want to do something for Linhai County, and that is understandable. However, neither you nor I are Jiang Peng. Some things Jiang Peng can handle, but we cannot. To put it bluntly, you and I lack the strength."

"Alright."

Li Fangnan said nothing more.

Kong Long and Ji Qin felt even more disappointed, their last glimmer of hope completely extinguished.

At this moment, step... step... step... Heavy and rhythmic footsteps sounded on the God-Bestowal Platform, and everyone turned to look at the newcomer.

"Xiao Weiqing, why are you here?"

Han Jin was also surprised to see Xiao Weiqing.

It was no secret in Luo Jiang Academy that Xiao Weiqing had entered the Azure Dragon Awakening Training Camp, but why would he appear here?

"Hello, Senior Han."

"Hello."

Han Jin did not act arrogant and quickly thought to himself: Does Xiao Weiqing have friends or relatives here? If so, he could communicate with Director Xu. This way, he could earn a favor from Xiao Weiqing, a guaranteed win.

"Xiao Weiqing, you actually came."

Li Fangnan had been curious earlier; he had requested a pass, but hadn't seen him, so he thought he hadn't come.

Xiao Weiqing nodded slightly.

Then he said to Ji Qin, "I am representing Luo Jiang Academy to specially recruit you. Are you willing?"

"Yes, yes, Senior Xiao, I am willing."

Ji Qin couldn't help but nod.

"Good, go to Li Fangnan."

"There should be another Level 3 Technique Cultivator, right?"

"Me, Senior, my name is Kong Long, 48.6 points, Earth-element Technique Cultivator."

A Short-haired Youth immediately ran out.

"Good, I am representing..."

"I am willing, I am willing, Senior."

Kong Long immediately blurted out, feeling that happiness had come too suddenly.

Next, Xiao Weiqing said to everyone, "Teachers, I wonder if you are free tonight? I would like to play the host and treat you all to a meal."

"Haha, we must be free. Being invited to dinner by the top Genius of the Great Xia, we wouldn't miss it for anything."

"Exactly, for others, we have to see, but if you, Xiao Weiqing, are treating, we must go."

The teachers readily agreed.

"Alright, then let's meet at Zuiyue Restaurant. I will arrange a car to pick you up later. If the junior students are not busy, teachers, you may bring them along."

"Li Fangnan, go and book the entire Zuiyue Restaurant."

"No problem."

Teacher Geng said, "Why arrange a car? We will go there ourselves."

"That's right, it's not our first time in Linhai County; we are familiar with this place." Teacher Qin agreed.

Xiao Weiqing nodded, "Then it is settled. We will take our leave now."

The rest was easy; the five Supernatural Universities divided up the remaining students.

"Teacher Qin, who was that Xiao Weiqing just now?"

Qin Yan glanced at the newly admitted students and said, "A second year Trainee from Luo Jiang Academy, one year older than you, a true pride of heaven, a dragon among men."

"Teacher, tell us about him."

Teacher Geng, who was nearby, said, "In January, Xiao Weiqing participated in the National Supernatural University Exchange Competition and took first place."

"Luo Jiang Academy's ranking jumped from eighth to third because of this."

"Hiss..."

"Teacher, do you mean that among his peers, he is the most powerful one in the entire Great Xia?"

"No, the entire Blue Star."

"What?"

Everyone was stunned. Not just the entire Great Xia, but the most powerful in the entire Blue Star?

Qin Yan said, "That happened inside the Civilization Ruins; he overwhelmed the Geniuses of the other three countries. You just need to know that he is the pride of Great Xia."

Teacher Geng also said, "If anyone among you can achieve even half of his accomplishments in the future, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."

That night, the entire Zuiyue Restaurant was booked.

Xiao Weiqing brought Chen Luo, Li Sheng, and several Supernatural University admissions teachers for a meal.

After the meal, "Weiqing, when are you leaving?"

"Leaving tomorrow."

Chen Luo nodded and added, "Director Li just approached me, wanting to transfer me to work at the bureau."

"What is your decision?"

Chen Luo laughed heartily, "I still prefer being at school."

"But thank you."

Xiao Weiqing said nothing more, respecting his teacher. Chen Luo was not short of money now, and doing what he liked was not a bad thing.

Afterward, everyone parted ways. Tonight, all major restaurants and hotels were packed; tomorrow, countless people would head in different directions.

The next day. Xiao Weiqing first rushed to Anqiu City, then took an aircraft back to Azure Dragon Island.

"Xiao Weiqing, you're back?"

Su Yunfei was in the courtyard, brandishing a short blade.

"Yeah."

"What happened to him?"

At this moment, Dongfang Xuan was lying on a recliner, his face bruised and battered. Hearing Xiao Weiqing's voice, he opened his eyes to look, but said nothing.

Su Yunfei laughed, "He went to fight for a Spiritual Energy Cave on the sixth floor and got beaten up."

"Recently, the old batch of Trainees have been undergoing Second Awakening one after another and leaving the Training Camp, so many high-level Spiritual Energy Caves on Shenxiang Mountain have opened up, and people are fighting on the arena every day."

"I see." Xiao Weiqing nodded.

Su Yunfei added, "There was another big event while you were gone these past few days."

"What is it?"

"It's Shen Bohan. He successfully underwent Second Awakening and raised his Extraordinary Talent by two levels."

Xiao Weiqing was shocked, "Two levels?"

"Yeah, just the day before yesterday. The whole Training Camp knows."

"Amazing."

Su Yunfei nodded, "Indeed, the second person in history."

"If I could raise my talent... no, forget two levels, even just one, I would die of happiness."

"You should be thinking about raising your combat power value and then undergoing Second Awakening. The batch of Trainees from the Azure Dragon Academy will be entering the Training Camp soon; don't be at the bottom by then." Dongfang Xuan said coldly.

Su Yunfei's face darkened, "Don't bring up sore subjects."
