19: Chapter 19 Princess and Young Masters

Two hours later.

Inside the Dongcheng City Special Affairs Bureau branch office, several people were standing in Wei Heng Heng's office.

Wei Heng Heng, Lu Li, Yu Zheng, and Xiao Xu.

A total of four people were standing there.

Wei Heng Heng paused and spoke, "Did everyone see that 'Great Sage' incident?"

"Yes."

Xiao Xu nodded, and the tablet in his hand was currently playing the scene that had just occurred.

Even without being present at the scene, it was still shocking.

In the instant that sky-piercing rod smashed down, Xiao Xu couldn't help but want to cheer.

"Xiao Xu, what do you think?"

Wei Heng Heng tapped the table, looking at Xiao Xu.

"Ah... First, this is an error on my part. This Rank A Disaster Beast was hidden in our city..."

"Alright, it's just the few of us here, let's skip the formalities."

"Mm... Then, according to the assessment, the Great Sage's magnitude is at least Advanced Rank A, City-Destroying Grade. We don't yet know how long he can maintain continuous output.

But based on the current performance,

If he wished, he could destroy all of Dongcheng City within an hour.

However, judging by how casually he modified and discarded that toy golden-hooped rod...

His true strength might be...

Sorry, Wei Heng, the database has no record of anything similar."

"Mm, I know."

Wei Heng Heng nodded again.

"Facing this unknown Ability User, do we currently have any targeted countermeasures?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xu blinked.

Displaying an expression that suggested Wei Heng might be joking.

But Xiao Xu still answered cautiously.

"Wei Heng, you know we are just a fourth-tier Earth-Grade city, and a relatively weak one at that...

Our strongest Ability User and Spiritual Energy Armor operator is you, Advanced Rank B.

Do you think..."

"Enough, you don't need to say more."

Wei Heng Heng pressed his head with some pain.

"We should report this. The golden-hooped rod cannot be kept. Let's see if we can exchange for a few powerful Ability Users to station here temporarily, giving us time to cultivate our own Psionic Armor Adepts and Ability Users."

"Wei Heng, you don't intend to keep the golden-hooped rod?" Lu Li asked curiously.

"Damn it, I can't even move it! That thing is for a Monkey to use, not for me!"

Just as Wei Heng Heng was grinding his teeth in frustration, a knock came from outside his director's office.

Thump, thump, thump.

"Who is it? Didn't I say not to disturb me during this period?"

As soon as Wei Heng Heng finished speaking, he heard someone outside the outer door say:

"Wei Heng, someone has arrived from the Imperial Capital."

Upon hearing it was someone from the Imperial Capital, Wei Heng Heng lost all his temper.

Let alone the Imperial Capital, he didn't even have the temper for people coming from the province.

"I'll be right out."

Wei Heng Heng sighed; being this bureau chief was truly difficult.

"Let's go, let's see who from the Imperial Capital has arrived.

Wait a minute, wasn't Shi Fen just dragged away? What are they coming here to freeload for now?"

Not long after, the group saw the arrivals in the reception hall.

They were three young men and women who looked quite arrogant.

Wei Heng Heng's gaze swept over them, and he immediately noticed their equipment.

The girl sitting in the very center had several purple spiritual energy crystals flashing with dazzling fire on her wrist.

She was a Psionic Armor Adept.

Furthermore, she was an Ability User of no low Rank.

The spiritual energy crystals on her hand were the highest-grade spiritual energy crystals currently available.

This level of spiritual energy crystal could only be driven if one possessed extremely high spiritual energy affinity.

And a person with such spiritual energy affinity was inevitably an Ability User.

As for the two young men remaining, the buckles on their belts were also not ordinary items; they were the most Advanced Nano-Integrated Gear.

Each piece cost hundreds of millions.

Their entire Dongcheng City only possessed one discarded mecha, yet the items these few people carried could trade for who knows how many of those broken mechas.

These few people were probably some young masters or princesses from powerful families, right?

Wei Heng Heng retracted his gaze and said with a slight smile:

"May I ask what brings you here, esteemed guests?"

"Wei Heng.", The leading girl stood up, "Let me introduce myself first.

My name is Pei Ruanruan, and these two are Zhang Tianci and Wang Kaixin."

Zhang Tianci and Wang Kaixin also stood up and nodded.

Then, Pei Ruanruan continued, "We came mainly because we heard that a Genius has appeared here?"

"Ah?"

Wei Heng Heng blinked, unable to figure out what was going on.

At this moment, Xiao Xu gently nudged Wei Heng Heng:

"Wei Heng, Fang Jiangqin's preliminary test showed a 23% Spiritual Energy Armor Fusion rate. According to regulations, anyone exceeding a 10% Fusion rate must be reported."

"Oh, so that's how it is.", Wei Heng Heng nodded, "That is indeed the case. May I ask why you all have come here?"

"Wei Heng, we would like you to introduce us to her."

"This... that can be arranged."

But Wei Heng Heng was still a bit curious, "However, why do you wish to know Fang Jiangqin?"

"That's obvious, to have her register for our Jing University and join our Invincible Genius Society. Our Invincible Genius Society only accepts Geniuses!"

"Ah?"

Wei Heng Heng blinked. What in the world was all this?

So these few were all from Jing University?

"This... I think you all don't need to worry."

Wei Heng Heng pondered for a moment, "Jing University is one of the highest-tier academies in our Great Xia. If Jiang Qin's grades are good enough, she will naturally choose Jing University as her target."

"What if she has a sudden whim and chooses Qing University?"

"..." Wei Heng Heng felt that worrying about this was less important than worrying if she could even get accepted...

Their region belonged to the Four Provinces of Mountains and Rivers. The difficulty of getting into Jing University or Qing University compared to the students in the Imperial Capital was completely different.

"Very well, I will look up Jiang Qin's file now. But since it is the time for the College Entrance Examination, why don't you all stay in our Special Affairs Bureau for two days, and we can go see her after the exam concludes?"

"That works. Once the written exam is over, we will go see her.", The leading girl made the final decision, settling the matter.

"Haha, that's good then. You all can take a tour of Dongcheng City first. Although Dongcheng City isn't large, the great lake in the city is quite spectacular. You might as well take a walk by the lake."

"Okay."

After the discussion concluded, the group walked out of the reception hall, chatting and laughing.

Just then, a researcher in a white lab coat ran over excitedly.

"Wei Heng, Wei Heng! The preliminary detection results for the golden-hooped rod are out!"

Wei Heng Heng: "..."

Pei Ruanruan: "?"

Zhang Tianci: "?"

Wang Kaixin: "?"

Pei Ruanruan: "What is this golden-hooped rod?"

So, the group went together to see the golden-hooped rod whose results were in.

...

...

On the other side.

11:30 AM.

The morning Chinese language exam had ended.

The students, busy for the entire morning, walked out of the examination hall with expressions ranging from joy, relief, to dejection...

Then, all their expressions turned to shock.

They only took an exam, why did the ground shake outside?

At this moment, the Cleaners were still sweeping up the battlefield.

Rows of dirt trucks were transporting soil and rocks, filling the massive pit at the school entrance.

Others were repairing roads, planting trees, planting flowers, and laying sod.

And a large number of people were still cleaning up the crushed residue that the road surface had been compressed into.

Even though they often saw Disaster Beast rampaging, a scene like this was still startling.

Of course, there were also those who were heartbroken.
