One-sentence summary: If you're a woman, you must be the strongest.
Initially, Jiang Yu Nu only wanted to survive. She tried her best to live, never giving up on herself in the face of an...
Chapter 103
Of course, the above is just a random association that Jiang Yunu made after seeing the other person's name.
Involuntary and without basis.
She found out that there were three most powerful superpower associations in the world. During her time living and studying in the Seventh District, the only one that left a faint impression on her was the Linglu Superpower Association.
Jiang Yunu was not sure how such a difference occurred, and it was also a part that she needed to ask her teacher.
Reiss Daniel patiently answered her previous question. "The Spirit Deer Psychic Association's headquarters is located in District One, and its jurisdiction covers Districts Five, Six, and Seven. All unusual incidents within these three districts are reported to the Spirit Deer Association's main database. The system then assigns them to the nearest association specialist near the incident, who then dispatches a dedicated person to coordinate the handling of the situation."
Simply put, the Association of Psychics is called an "Association", but in reality it is a direct authority backed by the government.
Among the eight major star regions, except for the first region where the headquarters of the three major associations, Linglu, Snow Wolf and Golden Horse, stand, the first region does not belong to the jurisdiction of any association. The remaining seven regions are divided into different associations, and the corresponding superpower associations are responsible for handling special incidents in the region.
Jiang Yunu counted on his fingers and found that the seven regions were divided among three associations, which did not seem to be evenly distributed.
She was a little confused: "Teacher, there are three associations in seven regions. This way we can divide the remainder, right?"
Leis Daniel smiled and said, "The Spirit Deer manages the fifth, sixth, and seventh districts, the Golden Horse manages the third and fourth, and the Snow Wolf is quite unique. It manages the second district after the first, and the eighth district at the end."
Jiang Yunu calculated in his mind again.
In other words, to put it simply: the Snow Wolf Psychic Association controls the top and bottom of the second to eighth regions; the Golden Horse Psychic Association controls the top middle areas of the regional rankings; the Spirit Deer Psychic Association manages the largest area, occupying three regions alone.
"Why does the Spirit Deer Ability Association manage the most areas?" Jiang Yunu asked, "Is it because it's so powerful?"
Although he asked this question, Jiang Yunu felt that it was not the case.
The Linglu Superpower Association manages many areas, but if you think about it carefully, all the areas under its management are ranked low.
Reiss Daniel sat opposite her holding a teacup and gave Jiang Yunu a smile with a complicated meaning.
"The Linglu Superpower Association manages the most regions because this association has the largest number of members." He said softly.
——It’s not because it’s the strongest!
Jiang Yunu suddenly realized that his guess had come true.
Anyway, having come to this point, Teacher Lei took the opportunity to briefly explain the other two associations to Jiang Yunu: "The Snow Wolf is the patriarch's association that follows the 'high-tech elite' model. They recruit the most extreme combat talents from each class of advanced supernatural school graduates. This association is also more likely to produce elite lone wolves. They have won the jurisdiction of the second largest district after the first district through their strength, and also control the eighth district, the last of the eight districts."
Jiang Yunu: "Why?"
Reisdaniel said, "Because outside the Eighth District is the 'out-of-bounds area' that is not within the 22nd District numbering of the Alliance."
The Snow Wolf Psychic Association is absolutely confident in its own combat capabilities. Their members must be the best, strongest, and most talented, so they can not only manage the second largest area after the first area, but also guard the boundary between the last area and the out-of-bounds area.
Reiss Daniel: "As for the Golden Horse Psychic Association..."
Before Mr. Lei began to introduce the Golden Horse Psychic Association, Jiang Yunu couldn't help but interrupt, "Is everyone in the Golden Horse Psychic Association proficient in acting?"
Reiss Daniel: “?”
Reiss Daniel first gave Jiang Yunu a questioning look, and then seemed to fall into deep thought about her sudden question.
After a moment, Jiang Yunu, who just couldn't help but make a joke, actually saw Teacher Lei nod.
Reisdaniel nodded slightly. He thought for a moment and said, "If you mean whether this association is full of flatterers and good socialites... then it is."
The Golden Horse Psychic Association is in charge of the middle section of the front region, and it absorbs the "high-end" from another direction - the high-end from a family background.
"Your graduation results from the Advanced Supernatural School are not your passport to membership." Reiss Daniel's lips curved in a slightly sarcastic manner. "To join the Golden Horse Supernatural Association, your background, your family situation, your connections, or even if you don't come from a high-class family, the resources your family is willing to provide to the association and the amount of star coins they can contribute are your passport to membership."
Jiang Yunu was not unfamiliar or surprised by this recruitment model. She just wondered, "What can this association provide to people?"
"It manages the two largest districts in the front, besides the first and second districts," Reisdaniel said indifferently. "Do you know how hard people in the back districts will work just to change their household registration, just to get a ticket to move up?"
The whole family must put in the effort, even if it means spending resources that may drain two to three generations of the family, to exchange for a pass to the front star zone.
Once they join the Golden Horse Psychic Association, at least starting from this person who pays the fee, his family will be able to gain a foothold in at least the fourth largest district in the future.
"If you're exceptionally good at 'dancing with the sleeves' and stay in Districts 3 and 4 for a few years, it's not impossible that one day you'll suddenly have a chance to move to District 1, where our headquarters is stationed, and completely change your life." Reiss Daniel said.
——This is also the reason why, despite the high membership fee of the Golden Horse Psychic Association, there has been a steady stream of people applying and rushing to invest resources to join over the years.
If you cannot become a high-end talent in terms of ability, you will not be able to enter the Snow Wolf based on your strength. Even if you enter the Snow Wolf based on your strength, there is still the risk of being assigned to the eighth district.
Then invest all your resources into Jinma. Once you get into Jinma, you will be able to take root in the central region.
As for the Spirit Deer Ability Association...
"Compared to the Snow Wolf and Golden Horse, the Spirit Deer Psychic Association can be considered mediocre."
It does not require you to work hard on yourself and constantly temper yourself to the strongest in exchange for a ticket to membership.
It also doesn't require you to spend all your wealth or rely on the family background you were born into to get an entry ticket.
"You're a well-behaved student who graduated with decent grades. You don't have any career ambitions to defy fate or transcend class boundaries. You're just willing to do a job that supports yourself. You don't seek to make friends with prominent families. You just want to have a few good friends and live a stable life... Then go to Linglu."
The Linglu Superpower Association absorbs all those who are neither extremely talented nor extremely wealthy.
So naturally, it has the largest number of members and is in charge of the three regions at the bottom of the rankings.
The majority of people in this world are ordinary people who want to live a normal life.
Jiang Yunu felt that the Linglu Ability Association was very down-to-earth. She would naturally feel more friendly towards those organizations that were more down-to-earth and cared more about ordinary people. But at the same time, the images of Su Xiuchun and Inspector Ye Li next to them emerged in her mind.
"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Reisdaniel saw the little girl's hesitation.
Jiang Yunu said, "Teacher, the public's impression of the Spirit Deer Psychic Association is that they are mediocre, but when I look at Coach Su Xiuchun, I realize she's very different from an ordinary person."
After a moment, she added, "—Inspector Ye Li also looks very impressive."
In fact, at her age, Jiang Yunu should be at a stage where she sees any adult with a little power as imposing. What children perceive as imposing isn't necessarily because the person is truly powerful, but rather because they are still immature.
However, Reiss Daniel did not question Jiang Luobo's vision.
"You're right," Reiss Daniel said. "Coach Su and Inspector Ye Li are indeed extraordinary people, especially Coach Su."
Sometimes Jiang Yunu doesn't really act like a girl of her age, so Teacher Lei would tell her some things in private that he would not normally tell a child.
"Coach Su was sent from the headquarters in the first district to the seventh district." said Reis Daniel.
This sentence is extremely valuable.
Everyone is trying their best to move up, and being able to move up to a district is considered a class leap. However, Su Xiuchun was transferred from the first district to the seventh district. In name, it was an "external assignment", but in fact, in the eyes of many people with ulterior motives, her move was completely a "slippery slope".
No, it can even be said to have "fallen off a cliff."
"...Our seventh district isn't that bad, is it?" Jiang Yunu muttered softly.
Given the distance between her and Reiss Daniel, even if she whispered, it would be very loud in the teacher's ears.
Teacher Lei laughed: "Then tell me, what's good about our seventh district?"
Jiang Yunu answered without hesitation: "The food is good. Even if you don't have a job, you can still get welfare meals. In the city, you don't have to worry about starving to death. The housing is good too. The residential buildings are very lively. Finally, the people are nice. Most of them are friendly. I also met such great classmates and teachers!"
The white-haired girl raised her head and looked at Leis Daniel when she said the last half of the sentence. Teacher Lei was immediately comforted by her words and forgot the doubts that had just passed through his mind - how could such a little girl like Jiang Yunu be so familiar with welfare relief meals and even care about whether she would starve to death in the city?
"...But the benefits you mentioned will also be available in the front star regions." Reiss Daniel rubbed Jiang Yunu's hair.
As for starving to death in the city, this is something that will not happen in the bottom eight districts, which are one place lower than the seventh district.
It sounds like a horror story that only exists in the outside world. Who would starve in such a human superpower alliance?
Reiss Daniel quickly ended this little interruption with Jiang Yunu and brought the topic back to the main topic.
"The Spirit Deer Psychic Association's headquarters is in District One, after all. It's truly one of the three major associations. Even if its members are mostly mediocre, that doesn't necessarily mean everyone who joins Spirit Deer is mediocre," Reiss Daniel said. "For example, you've already met Coach Su. Your intuition about her was correct. Before she was transferred to District Seven for unknown reasons, she was a well-known figure in District One."
There are always some people with special abilities in this world. They may be talented, but they don’t like to join Snow Wolf to compete for the so-called “highest level”; their family background may not be bad, but they are discouraged by the layered money and power system of Golden Horse and are unwilling to run a business in a complicated place.
There are still a group of high-level superpowers in the Spirit Deer Superpower Association. They are like sheepdogs guarding the sheep, and like the deer king who commands a group of herbivorous small animals in the jungle. They will fight hard on the front line and defend the basic position of resource pastures for the huge tribe.
"All in all, it's a great thing that Coach Su happened to be involved in this unusual incident during the inter-school competition."
Su Xiuchun likes to laugh and doesn't look as serious as Inspector Ye Li, who she always brings with her. She has a lot of say in the Seventh District and has the down-to-earth quality that is unique to the Linglu Psychic Association. She is easygoing and especially loves to take care of children.
This is also why after Jiang Yunuo won the favor of Coach Su, Reiss Daniel said that Jiang Yunuo didn't need to worry about the subsequent troubles and he couldn't find her anymore.
Three days later, an official notice was finally issued regarding the postponement of the inter-school competition practice match.
