Chapter 22 Contract
After Li Xuelian told Zhang Yu about his situation, she heard a chuckle from the other end of the line.
"It's really good, but there's no need to accept him."
Li Xuelian asked in confusion: "Why?"
Master Xinghuo laughed loudly, his tone full of joy: "I have found a true genius."
"He is also in the first year of high school, only 15 years old, and it only took him half an hour to master the Tianwu Refining Heart Technique."
"I don't have any contract yet."
Having said that, Master Xinghuo couldn't help but burst into laughter again.
Li Xuelian was surprised and asked, "There are actually such freaks?"
Master Xinghuo laughed and said, "I told you a long time ago that there is no shortage of geniuses in the first level of Kunxu. It just lacks people to invest in them."
"For example, the top scorers in each subject of the college entrance examination, as well as the top scorer in the total score, you should know how amazingly talented they are."
"But there are many geniuses like this on the first floor of Kunxu every year, and there are also a group of people who are not much worse than them, popping up year after year, just like leeks that can never be harvested."
"There are too many geniuses, but I didn't find them in the past, and they were always beaten to the punch by others. Now I finally found them first."
Li Xuelian looked at Zhang Yu with some regret and asked, "Shouldn't we sign this Zhang Yu as well?"
Master Xinghuo: "Forget it. From now on, our family's resources will be invested in true geniuses. Let's not disperse our energy."
…
In the conference room next to the exhibition.
Li Xuelian looked at Zhang Yu in front of her and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, classmate. My father has other important matters to attend to. I'm afraid I can't accept you as my apprentice for the time being."
She said sincerely, "But you can use the Tianwu Refining Heart Technique with confidence in the future. I will decide the specific copyright and give you a copy."
Li Xuelian looked at Zhang Yu with admiration in her eyes: "Finally, I would like to give you 10,000 yuan in my personal name."
"Don't rush to refuse. This gift comes purely from my appreciation of your talent."
"I hope that when we meet next time, you will have been admitted to a prestigious university."
"Oh, by the way, regarding those videos you recorded, they also involve the copyright of the dissemination of the Tianwu Lianxin Jue, so you need to delete them..."
After a moment, looking at Zhang Yu's departing back, the smile on Li Xuelian's face gradually disappeared.
Although Master Xinghuo did not intend to accept the other party as his disciple, Li Xuelian did not intend to take the initiative to make enemies with such a talented young man.
Anyway, whether it was the copyright of Tianwu Lianxin Jue or ten thousand dollars, it was just a piece of cake for her.
She herself couldn't even remember how many times she had given small gifts like this to young geniuses.
But most of them eventually became lost in the crowd and had long been forgotten by her.
After resolving this matter, Li Xuelian went to meet several important guests, and then she couldn't wait to find her father.
She was extremely curious about the peerless genius mentioned by Xinghuo Zhenren.
…
On the other side, at the art exhibition which has not yet officially ended.
Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu who had just walked out of the conference room and asked, "How was it? Did you reject Master Xinghuo? Did Li Xuelian make things difficult for you?"
Zhang Yu recalled Li Xuelian's admiring look just now and shook his head: "It didn't embarrass me."
"Before I even opened my mouth to speak, she rejected me first, saying that Master Xinghuo had other important matters..."
"In the end, they gave me 10,000 yuan more."
Listening to Zhang Yu's words, Bai Zhenzhen curled her lips and said, "A standard excuse for shirking responsibility."
"Maybe after she checked your information, she found that you are not that outstanding."
"For example, if your monthly exam results are too bad, you have no sterilization record, you can't grow muscles well, and you are in debt..."
Listening to what Bai Zhenzhen said, Zhang Yu curled his lips: "Ah Zhen, you are still not convinced after losing, and you started to make personal attacks, right?"
Seeing Zhang Yu's smug look, Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but grab his shoulder and asked, "Why don't you tell me what the hell you did?"
"Tell me quickly, did you borrow money to bribe the staff and comprehend the martial arts diagram in advance?"
Looking at Bai Zhenzhen's ugly face full of jealousy, Zhang Yu laughed.
Keep going, Ah Zhen. Watching you weaklings make such ugly appearances after your defeat is my current pleasure.
While the two were talking, Qian Shen also walked over from not far away.
He looked at Zhang Yu solemnly and asked, "Do you do poorly on exams on purpose?"
The test of the Heavenly Martial Arts Diagram allowed Qian Shen to improve his resistance to those with high scores.
But he was simply shocked that those with lower scores could outperform him.
Seeing Zhang Yu shaking his head in denial, Qian Shen said unwillingly, "Impossible. If you didn't do poorly on purpose, why would your talent and score be so mismatched?"
"Hmm?" Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "It's impossible for an exam to fully demonstrate a person's potential..."
Qian Shen interrupted Zhang Yu and said excitedly: "Impossible!"
"The college entrance examination and the six major courses in high school are customized by the ten major sects. It is a system specifically used to evaluate high school students. After being verified and adjusted by countless experts and masters, it has become the best, most scientific and most immortal system for evaluating a person!"
"Every subject and every score perfectly reflects the all-round differences between people, including the superiority and inferiority of bloodlines, the backwardness of regions, and the incompleteness of evolution..."
Looking at Qian Shen's extremely serious expression, Zhang Yu realized that he had misjudged him before.
You are not just a simple score discriminator. You have evolved from score discrimination to bloodline discrimination, regional discrimination and racial discrimination. You have become a supporter of score caste, right?
In short, in Qian Shen's statement, high scores mean awesome, being elite, being superior and confident, while low scores mean trash.
This is the worldview he has built up over the years, and it is also the source of his confidence as a high-scoring student. It can even be said to be the rule of all key high schools.
"Well, if you don't want to admit it, forget it."
"But I will tell the school about the situation here. I hope you can show your true ability in the next monthly exam and not get an incomplete score like 550."
Looking at Qian Shen's departing back, Zhang Yu felt as if he was scolded by the other party, but also as if he was not scolded by the other party.
Bai Zhenzhen on the side nodded thoughtfully: "Among all the nonsense he said, there is one thing you really need to pay attention to."
"The school will definitely know about the situation here, and they may ask you to sign a contract then."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Sign a contract?" Zhang Yu looked at Ah Zhen curiously. He had heard about this matter vaguely before, but he still had no idea what the situation was.
Bai Zhenzhen explained: "You know, not everyone in high school is as rich as Qian Shen's family."
"For many poor but high-achieving and talented students, someone needs to invest in them."
“And the school itself is one of the investors.”
"Generally, after the start of the second year of high school, we will select a group of outstanding students based on their performance and grades in the first year of high school, sign contracts with them, and invest money in them."
"Of course, there are a very small number of students who are too outstanding and too dazzling. In order to prevent them from being signed by others first, the school will contact them to discuss contracts during their first year of high school."
At this point, Bai Zhenzhen straightened her chest: "For example, me."
Zhang Yu: "Why didn't you tell me this before?"
Bai Zhenzhen rolled her eyes at Zhang Yu, as if to say, "Don't you know what kind of a person you were in the past?" Bai Zhenzhen: "Based on your performance at the exhibition, the school will definitely negotiate a contract with you. As for whether to sign it or not..."
Seeing the conflicted expression on Bai Zhenzhen's face, Zhang Yu asked, "Is it so difficult to choose whether to sign or not?"
Bai Zhenzhen sighed: "It can't be said that it's a difficult choice. In fact, it's easy to choose whether to sign or not based on your personal situation."
"But the difficulty lies in whether a person's perception of himself is right or wrong."
Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu and asked seriously, "For example, what kind of cheat did you use to comprehend the Heavenly Man Martial Arts Diagram this time?"
But halfway through her words, Bai Zhenzhen waved her hand again: "Forget it, mother and son don't ask, you don't have to tell me."
"In short, if you are really sure and have decided to apply to the top ten universities, then don't sign this contract now."
"On the other hand, if you are not sure you can get into the top ten and just want to go to an ordinary university, then as long as the contract is not too bad, just sign it."
Zhang Yu listened and thought for a while, then asked a few more questions about the details of the school and the contract.
Just after the two talked for a while, someone else came to Zhang Yu, it was a pretty and lovely girl.
"Hello classmate, you look so handsome just now, can you add me in contact?"
Similar things have happened many times since Zhang Yu comprehended the Heavenly Martial Arts Diagram. Even Lian Tianji from Ziyun High School contacted him.
Zhang Yu had gradually gotten used to this. He sighed in his heart and added the other party.
"Haha, even the pretty girl came to contact me?"
Zhang Yu asked: "Which school are you from?"
The other party said: "I am Wu Qingqing from Saint Women's College, in the key class."
Zhang Yu's face suddenly froze. In this world of Kunxu, those who look like men may not necessarily be men, but students in the key classes of the Women's College...then they must have been men.
Wu Qingqing seemed to sense the change in Zhang Yu's expression, and smiled slightly and said, "Oh, you have quite old-fashioned ideas."
"Do you think that our class is full of people who took advantage of the situation to get into key high schools, but whose actual grades are terrible?"
"Let me tell you, the top students in our class are no worse than you. You will know in the next city-wide exam."
Zhang Yu looked at the other person's departing back in silence.
No, am I thinking about this question?
Kunxu, this crappy place, even transgender people have to check their scores first before coming here, right?
"Congratulations." Zhou Tianyi came over from the side and asked: "Have you signed a contract with Jindan Zhenren?"
Zhang Yu looked at Zhou Tianyi in front of him, and suddenly remembered that the other party seemed to have no presence before the previous Tianren Martial Arts Show.
Next, Zhang Yu worked as a security guard while exchanging a few words with the guests he knew or didn't know.
With today's security work completed, his savings also increased by 1,600 and 10,000 yuan, soaring to 13,300 in one breath.
After paying off the remaining 5,000 yuan of loan this month, Zhang Yu, whose account balance dropped to 8,300 yuan, finally no longer had to worry about debt collection for the time being.
