Chapter 12 The Little Fox and the Old Fox



Wang Zheng found it somewhat amusing to watch the two teachers arguing so fiercely. After all, he had only attended an ordinary undergraduate program in his previous life and had never experienced such a scene of two prestigious universities vying for his attention. He never expected to witness it in this lifetime.

Seeing that teachers Zheng Qi and Chen Hao were arguing heatedly about who was the number one school, Principal Li of No. 1 Middle School awkwardly smiled and gestured for Wang Zheng to come over and defuse the situation.

Wang Zheng was also afraid that the two of them would really fight here, so he quickly said, "Teacher Zheng, Teacher Chen, first of all, thank you for thinking so highly of me and inviting me to join Imperial University and Shanghai University, but I haven't decided which school I want to apply to yet."

Because my awakening this time was quite sudden, I never thought I would be so lucky to awaken naturally and have the honor of being specially admitted by two prestigious universities in advance.

Although I am very excited right now, I can't make a decision right away. I need some time to think about it and discuss it with my family.

After all, both Shanghai and Beijing are my dream schools, and I won't regret choosing either one! I also hope that the two teachers won't let the students ruin their relationship.

Both Professors Zheng and Chen are now secretly feeling unlucky, because Wang Zheng's talent is a new type of talent that has not been discovered and has particularly high research value. It is precisely because of this that the research institute has done a very good job of keeping it secret.

The school received the news a little later than expected, but I rushed over as soon as I got the news, and I still ran into the other party.

Under the current circumstances, it's impossible to convince Wang Zheng to apply to our school. So we can only leave him with a good impression and hope that he will have a better sense of belonging to our school in the future.

Zheng Qi then spoke first, "Of course, choosing a school is a major life decision, so it's natural to consider it carefully. Here is my contact information. I hope you will contact me after you've made your decision, and I would also like to welcome Wang Zheng to our school."

Chen Hao then added, "Wang Zheng, I completely agree with your idea. Choosing a school is not only your own business, but you should also discuss it with your family. After all, you will be leaving the city where you live and living apart from your family."

By the way, speaking of which, your mother and I were classmates for a period of time. Back then, we were even in the same batch of students entering the Awakening Training Program.

Unexpectedly, even her son has naturally awakened. Seeing you young talents makes one realize how old we all are. Go back and tell your mother that your old classmate wants to visit sometime.

Zheng Qi: ? ? ?

Wang Zheng looked at Zheng Qi with some sympathy, saying that he wasn't as good at talking as others, his preparations weren't as thorough, and he didn't even mention any substantial rewards. It was no wonder that Li Yao and Su Ji didn't get anything.

Having said all that, Zheng Qi and Chen Hao also bid farewell to Principal Li.

After teachers Zheng and Chen left, Wang Zheng was about to say goodbye to the principal and return to continue teaching when another person pushed open the door and entered. It was an elderly man dressed in a Tang suit.

The old man was in good spirits, with a ruddy complexion, white hair and a youthful face. His white hair was neatly combed, and an imposing aura emanated from him as soon as he entered the room.

Then he saw his principal, who was already smiling as he went to greet him.

"President Chu, what brings you here? Wang Zheng, come here quickly. Let me introduce you to President Chu Tianxing of our Jingnan University."

Chu Tianxing smiled and pointed at Wang Zheng, "I'm here for him too. Principal Li, could you do me a favor and find an empty room so I can talk to Wang Zheng alone?"

Principal Li of Jingnan No.1 Middle School was naturally very understanding and said, "Why look for other places? You can chat here."

I happen to have a meeting, you two can chat first.

Wang Zheng, Principal Chu is a big name in Jingnan, someone whose every move shakes the entire Jiangnan province. You'd better keep a close eye on him and don't say anything out of line.

Then he said to Chu Tianxing, "Then I'll go ahead and get busy. You can continue chatting."

He then walked out of the principal's office and gently closed the door.

Wang Zheng naturally understood the principal's implication and didn't speak first. After all, the more you say, the more mistakes you make; the less you say, the fewer mistakes you make; and if you don't say anything, you won't make a mistake.

Seeing that Wang Zheng was keeping his head down and not saying anything, Principal Chu found a seat and sat down first.

Then he said to Wang Zheng, "Please sit down and make yourself at home. I heard what you were saying, but since you were chatting and I didn't really want to meet people from Beijing University and Shanghai University, I didn't come in."

I've known your mother for a long time, and she's mentioned you to me before. From what Xiao Li said, it seems you want to stay in southern Beijing to attend university?

"What? My mom said that? I never thought about staying in Jingnan. Since you know my mom, you must know that although she looks gentle, she is very strict with my upbringing."

At home, she's the boss, and she'll use her mental powers to freeze me in place as punishment at the drop of a hat. And my dad is the same; he beats me every other day. Now that I finally have a chance to escape this misery and study in another city, at top universities like Beijing University and Shanghai University, I definitely want to see the world.

"Principal Chu, don't be fooled by my mother. What she says doesn't represent my thoughts. She's just saying that to keep me by her side and continue to control me."

Wang Zheng looked incredulous and defended himself, feeling wronged.

Chu Tianxing had actually arrived long ago, and he had witnessed the entire exchange between Wang Zheng and Zheng Chen. To be honest, the old man had a good impression of Wang Zheng's way of handling things.

But seeing Wang Zheng's stubborn refusal to admit it, it's clear that he can't be treated like a 16-year-old child anymore. Without any tangible benefits, this little fox definitely won't change his mind and stay in Jingnan.

The thought that the other two Awakened Ones from Jingnan this year had already gone to Imperial University made Chu Tianxing feel a bit of a headache.

"Let me get straight to the point. If you come to Jingnan University, you'll be exempt from the entrance exam. You can register directly in September, and you can choose any of the practical instructors you want for your freshman year."

Furthermore, I can award you a weapon crafted from materials from a mythical beast on behalf of the school, and if you have the ability, I can also give you a spot in the university martial arts tournament.

Wang Zheng curled his lip in disdain. He had nothing but a weapon. Anyone could make empty promises. Seeing Wang Zheng's expression, Chu Tianxing spoke up again: "What are your conditions? Name them."

At this moment, Wang Zheng spoke up, "I don't have any other conditions. But my mom gave me a spirit crystal before, and I think it's quite pretty. If the principal can reward me with 10, I'll pack my bags and go to Jingnan University to register tomorrow without hesitation."
