Chapter 186 A Slap in the Face on the Spot, You Dare to Deserve It? [1 Update]
"..."
This name seems to have taken away all the sounds around it.
He Xun's mind went blank again, and he could barely stand.
The fingers holding the photocopy of the admission notice trembled incessantly.
Although He Xun was a student of a D-level academy and had no access to the core of Norton University, he knew that SS-level academies had not enrolled any students for a long time.
Therefore, Wen Tinglan is the only SS-level student admitted by Norton University in the past three years!
Seeing that He Xun was still in a daze, the professor simply took the photocopy of the admission notice from his hand.
With his hand suddenly empty, He Xun gradually came to his senses, his voice strained: "The school board... can just send people into SS-level academies at will?"
If Ying Zijing hadn't pulled strings for Wen Tinglan, would Wen Tinglan have been able to get into an SS-level academy, let alone the Mechanical Engineering department?
Even if he was certain that Wen Tinglan could get into Norton University, she would at most be an A-level student.
SS-class?
They are simply not qualified.
"Mr. He, are you delirious because you have a fever?" Hearing this, the professor was so angry that he laughed, and his expression turned cold. "The school's admission rules are set by the principal, and they will never be changed or compromised for anyone."
He simply moved the computer over and placed it in front of He Xun, pointing to a document.
"Wen Tinglan has an IQ of 228, second only to the few genius scientists in history. He has strong hands-on skills and can solve a 3x3 Rubik's Cube in three seconds."
"When he was five years old, he was already able to disassemble a broken Walkman, take out the broken parts, and put them back together so that the Walkman could still play music."
The professor, having calmed down by the end, said, "Mr. He, tell me, does a genius like this need to use connections to get into the SS Academy?"
If it weren't a good fit, Ying Zijing wouldn't have sent Wen Tinglan to the Mechanical Engineering Department.
In any case, she immediately ruled out alchemy and supernatural types.
Even the most normal person would go crazy if they went into those two departments.
Norton University's technological leadership owes much to the students and professors in the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
He Xun looked at the records in the document, his lips moved, but he couldn't utter a single word.
With such powerful analytical abilities, Wen Tinglan is indeed a genius among geniuses.
"By the way, Mr. He," the professor adjusted his glasses, "I heard that after graduation, you chose to become a high school teacher, and the school you teach at seems to be the same one as Wen Tinglan's, right?"
He Xun still did not respond.
An unprecedented sense of regret filled his heart, making it feel like it was about to explode.
He could even imagine what it would have been like if he hadn't taken away Wen Tinglan's interview opportunity, but instead brought Wen Tinglan to Norton University.
Then he will be the first teacher to produce an SS-level student.
Not only will his degree not be revoked, but he will also have the opportunity to stay at the university.
But now there's nothing left.
Without a degree from Norton University, top high schools in China like Qingzhi would never admit him.
There was practically nowhere to go.
“I’ve delivered the message. I still have to go teach my students.” The professor glanced at his watch. “Mr. He, just a reminder, the last subway train tonight is at 9:30. Don’t miss it.”
**
Norton University's external network and internal network are different.
The intranet is accessible only to students and professors at the university, while the external network is open to the entire world.
As the world's number one university, Norton University's official website naturally attracts a lot of attention.
Even if it's just a notice revoking a degree.
It was also like that last year, but instead of names, only numbers were displayed.
This year is quite different; one sentence in the announcement reads—
After careful consideration, the university has decided to revoke the degree certificates of 679 students, including He Xun.
The name He Xun immediately attracted the attention of many people, including some bigwigs.
But at most, you'll have a vague impression, and then you'll forget it after a few days.
Is someone whose degree was revoked by Norton University really worth their attention?
They don't deserve it at all.
However, Qingzhi Middle School received more attention because He Xun also took three students to Norton University for an interview.
"Principal, we've been cheated!" The dean of academic affairs slammed his fist on the table, indignant. "This is only because Norton University gave us a few years' grace period. If there hadn't been a grace period, He Xun wouldn't have even been able to get his degree certificate."
"So, he can't really be considered a graduate of Norton University at all."
That infuriated him.
He also manages the school's finances.
Qingzhi hired He Xun at a high price, paying him 180,000 yuan a month.
The dean of academic affairs felt that he had wasted his money.
"That's for the best." The principal nodded. "If it were, I would have to question the quality education at Norton University."
If the matter hadn't been exposed in the end, he wouldn't have known that He Xun could force several students with poor academic performance to transfer schools.
The dean of academic affairs became increasingly angry: "No way, I'm going to sue him for fraud!"
After saying that, he stormed out of the principal's office.

This way.
Ying Zijing obtained her medicine furnace.
The medicine furnace wasn't very big; it just fit inside my backpack.
She also took some medicinal herbs from the herb garden of the Department of Pharmacy.
The Department of Pharmacy is an S-level college. Every graduate of the Department of Pharmacy, no matter how bad they are, will become an attending physician in a major hospital in the world.
Alchemy is also a required course for those majoring in herbal medicine.
After retrieving the medicinal herbs, Ying Zijing finally looked up: "Seven days have passed. Where is Norton?"
What the outside world doesn't know is that the name Norton University, which sounds quite high-end and classy, was actually just a name that a certain university president casually used his own name to name the university.
"Eh? I haven't seen the principal in a long time either." The vice principal seemed to just remember this. "It's been a few months."
The reason they haven't recruited any new SS-level students is because Norton, that alchemy fanatic, keeps disappearing and hasn't been focusing on running the school.
“It seems,” Ying Zijing nodded slowly, with regret, “that even alchemy can’t cure Alzheimer’s.”
The vice-principal, who felt as if he'd been stabbed straight in the heart: "..."
"No, this isn't my fault." The vice principal genuinely felt he was innocent. "You know that once the principal starts playing with alchemy, he locks himself in his room and won't come out."
“There were a lot of poisonous things around his room, so I didn’t dare go near it. After a while, I forgot about it.”
He studied the supernatural and knew nothing about alchemy.
Ying Zijing slung her backpack over her shoulder, her expression blank: "Take me to see."
The vice principal knew that the big shot in front of him was from the Alchemy and Ancient Medicine Association.
However, his most outstanding skill was using poison.
Without a second thought, the vice principal immediately took the girl to the place.
It was a very tall tower, and even in the bright afternoon sun, it gave people a very oppressive feeling.
Ying Zijing looked around and said, "This way."
The vice principal quickly followed, hopping into the tower like a hopscotch player.
They climbed the spiral staircase floor by floor until they reached the top floor.
Ying Zijing took out a pair of white gloves from her pocket, put them on, placed her hands on the door, and then pushed it open.
The wind blew in through the top window, scattering the scraps of paper on the ground.
There was no one there.
Ying Zijing closed her eyes briefly, then turned her head a few seconds later: "Where is he?"
She had just glanced at the past ten days or so, and nothing had changed here.
In other words, Norton has been gone for a long time.
The vice principal strode in and was taken aback by the scene inside: "I swear, the last time I saw the principal, he was right here, and he definitely didn't go out."
Ying Zijing said calmly, "If he wants to go out, you won't even notice."
The vice principal shut up.
That's true.
Norton was not only highly skilled in alchemy, but he was also adept at disguise.
The NOK forum also has a ranking of disguise masters. Although Norton is not on the list, his disguise skills are definitely no less than the top five.
A disguise artist of this caliber can easily alter their appearance.
Ying Zijing lowered her eyelashes and pondered for a moment: "Tarot cards, bring them here."
The vice principal was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly ran out to get the tarot cards from the astronomical sphere.
The tarot cards circulating in the market are fake, but those at Norton University are all genuine.
Not long after, the vice principal returned.
He was holding several boxes: "Which one do you want?"
"It doesn't matter." Ying Zijing casually picked up a box. "It won't affect anything."
There are 78 cards in total in a Tarot deck: 22 Major Arcana cards and 56 Minor Arcana cards.
She was still using the large Arcana.
After shuffling the cards, the 22 cards were laid out in a row on the table.
Ying Zijing lowered her head and slowly swept her hand across the cards.
The three cards were automatically drawn into my palm.
She placed the three cards aside and turned them over one by one.
The vice principal remained calm when he saw the first two cards.
When the third card came out, his expression changed instantly.
