Time flies, and there's only one day left until the start of the new school term.
That day, Ye Chen bid farewell to his parents and boarded a plane back to Jiangzhou with Su Ningshuang.
After getting off the plane, Ye Chen first took Su Ningshuang home.
Two days ago, Su Ningshuang's mother returned to Jiangzhou from Hangzhou.
After sending Su Ningshuang back, Ye Chen returned to his home in Lingyun Heavenly Palace, tidied up briefly, and prepared for the start of school the next day.
Meanwhile, at Jiangzhou University, in Professor Chen He's office, several unfamiliar guests arrived.
Upon seeing an elderly man with a full head of white hair among the group, Professor Chen was immediately taken aback and asked in utter surprise:
"Master Wei, what brings you here?"
This elderly man with a full head of white hair is Wei Kangle, a renowned calligrapher in China.
Wei Kangle is also the vice president of the Huaxia Calligraphers Association.
"Old Chen, didn't you invite me here?"
Upon hearing Professor Chen's question, Wei Kangle countered with his own.
"I?"
Professor Chen was bewildered; he didn't recall ever hearing of such a thing.
Perhaps he's too old and has forgotten things.
"Old Chen, have you forgotten the report you submitted to the association before the New Year, the one about that Ye Chen?"
Seeing Professor Chen's bewildered expression, Wei Kangle offered to explain.
"Oh, I remember now."
Professor Chen nodded. Last time, Ye Chen won the first prize in the National College Student Calligraphy Competition.
At that time, Professor Chen was amazed by Ye Chen's calligraphy skills, so he wanted to invite Ye Chen to join the China Calligraphers Association.
Professor Chen is a director of the Huaxia Calligraphers Association.
Because Ye Chen's calligraphy skills were so high, Professor Chen immediately expressed his hope that the association could directly appoint Ye Chen as a director of the association.
Because of the Chinese New Year and a series of procedures, this matter has been delayed until now.
"But Master Wei, why did you come in person?"
Wei Kangle replied, "I'm here to test Ye Chen's abilities and see if he's qualified to become a director of the association directly."
Is that so?
Professor Chen was puzzled. Even if the association wanted to verify Ye Chen's level, there was no need to send Master Wei in person.
Wei Kangle did not tell Professor Chen the specific reasons.
Currently, there is only one vacancy for a director position in the association.
Wei Kangle had his eye on this position before, and he felt that his apprentice Xu Zi'an was just right for it.
His apprentice was named one of the "Top Ten Young Calligraphers in China" last year.
At only twenty-five years old, his skills already surpass those of the older generation of calligraphers.
Xu Zi'an joined the Huaxia Calligraphers Association three years ago, thanks to Wei Kangle's recommendation.
With Wei Kangle's arrangement, his apprentice was almost certain to get the position of director.
But now, Ye Chen has appeared out of nowhere.
This greatly displeased Wei Kangle. He simply couldn't believe that a so-called calligraphy genius like Ye Chen could be more skilled than his apprentice whom he had trained since childhood.
This time, he brought his apprentice with him on his own initiative, just to let Ye Chen know what it means to be "there are always people more capable than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding".
When Ye Chen appears, let Zi'an wield his brush and ink to give a performance.
At that time, after seeing Zian's strength, Ye Chen would probably back down.
The position of director of the Huaxia Calligraphers Association belongs to his apprentice.
"Where is Ye Chen? Have him come over."
Wei Kangle asked.
"School hasn't started yet. How about this, Master Wei, school starts tomorrow, and he'll definitely have to go back to school. I'll ask him to come over then?"
"All right."
That evening, Professor Chen sent Ye Chen a message.
The moment Ye Chen saw the message, a message suddenly came from the game.
【bite】
[Challenge issued: Go to Professor Chen's office tomorrow and prove your abilities]
[Challenge Reward: One Mall Points Boost Card (increases points by 60)]
[Challenge Reward: 60 Experience Points]
[Challenge Reward: 30 Mall Points]
When Ye Chen saw this challenge, his eyes widened immediately.
The game is so user-friendly and amazing!!!
After your player level increases, the experience points and points rewarded by the challenges issued by the game will increase by about double.
Right now, what Ye Chen lacks is not the items he currently has, but the mall points!
The main reward for this challenge is in-game store points.
Currently, I only need 85 more mall points to upgrade.
A points upgrade card for the online store, worth 60 points.
Adding the 30 points from the normal challenge reward, he has a total of 90 points, enough for Ye Chen's shop to break through to five stars.
That's fantastic!
Tomorrow will be the day I break through to the five-star mall!
Upgrading to a five-star mall will not only significantly increase the value of your merchandise, but also increase the number of items to thirteen!
The items in the four-star mall are already quite good, so what kind of items will be available in the five-star mall?
Ye Chen was incredibly excited about the items in the Five-Star Mall!
"Okay, Professor Chen, I'll come to see you at 10 a.m. tomorrow."
Ye Chen immediately replied with a message.
The next day, Ye Chen got up early and drove to school.
After attending a class, Ye Chen went to Professor Chen's office during the break.
When Ye Chen arrived at Professor Chen's office, Professor Chen, Wei Kangle, Wei Kangle's apprentice Xu Zi'an, and several other onlookers who had come to join the fun were already waiting.
Professor Chen gave Ye Chen a very warm welcome when he entered.
"This is Ye Chen."
Professor Chen first introduced Ye Chen's identity to everyone.
