Chapter 82: Xunzhen Academy Completed
Duan Shi clapped his hands and said to the students of the elite class, "Okay, today's business is over. We will arrange for everyone to go to a temporary hotel to rest and then enroll tomorrow. I have already told you about other precautions before, so I will not say more now. You should all know how rare this opportunity is, so you can take charge of many things yourself."
All the students listened carefully to his lecture. No one was distracted and no one jumped out to refute anything. Each of them understood better than anyone how rare it was to get this opportunity, and no one wanted to break the rules.
After briefly giving everyone some instructions, Duan Shi led everyone to bid farewell to Secretary Ye Caiying, boarded the bus specially prepared for the students, and set off for the hotel.
After Long Jun finished setting up the final mountain protection formation, he left the scene with several monk teachers, leaving the students and other spectators to carry out subsequent activities.
Although the media reporters were very eager to interview these powerful monks, they had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and surround the students and the chairman and ask them crazy questions.
However, these chairmen had already made arrangements, what could be said and what could not be said were all predetermined scripts, and the people being interviewed were just reciting the scripts. Even if the foreign media reporters were unwilling, they could do nothing about the flourishing flower-growing industry and could only accept the answers given by the Chinese media.
In this interview, the outside world got information about when the national spiritual root detection of Zhihua will be carried out, when other cities will establish cultivation academies, how talented students will be admitted, when holographic technology can be applied to other fields, when domestic identity bracelets can be upgraded, and when foreign countries can get technical support from Zhihua.
In the live broadcast that was carried out simultaneously, the netizens who were watching flowers were most concerned about the national spiritual root detection and the establishment of students of cultivation. Regarding this, the chairman gave a detailed answer.
The first is the testing time. Since the testing equipment combined with cultivation technology is still under research, the current authoritative testing method is to use the test stones given by the Dragon King. However, everyone knows that the quantity is very limited, so the current national policy is to arrange testing for ordinary people in Ning'an City first.
After all, a series of major events took place in Ning'an City. Although it seems that the power of the dragon veins has been basically absorbed by the audience at the ceremony, the chosen one cannot be ruled out. Therefore, after the above discussion, the capital city is ranked after Ning'an City, so that the people of Ning'an can be tested first.
The residents of Ning'an City were of course celebrating, and their cheers could be heard in the neighboring city. However, people from other places were not happy about it, and they were about to throw a tantrum to get the government to change its mind. However, no matter how envious, jealous or resentful they are of what the country decides, they cannot change it and can only accept it.
The country can understand their feelings, so they immediately notified that at the latest, in one month, all provincial capitals will be able to carry out testing, and then slowly spread to the surrounding areas. It is expected that nationwide testing will be completed in five months.
Although this time is still not satisfactory to everyone, everyone understands how difficult it is to start from scratch. The country has already worked very hard to achieve this result. Therefore, except for a few who are still clamoring, most people are starting to look forward to it.
Then, regarding the establishment of a cultivation academy, the chairman's answer was that it would be built, but it might not be officially put into operation in a short period of time. Even the first academy, Xunzhen Academy, only had five cultivator teachers. Under such circumstances, how could a cultivation academy established by the state be put into operation?
So for the time being, except for Xunzhen Academy which is qualified to teach cultivation, other academies can only provide theoretical teaching. When it comes to professional knowledge of cultivation, students can only listen to the open classes of the teachers of Xunzhen Academy.
After this was made public, it caused a lot of controversy. Everyone felt that they had gone through so much trouble to enter the Academy of Cultivation, and what they longed for was to be taught by a famous teacher. Even if they didn't have resources like the Xunzhen Academy, at least they could find a cultivator who had embarked on the path of cultivation to teach them. As a result, they now find out that there are no famous teachers even if they get in, and they can only take online classes from thousands of miles away. What's the difference between that and ordinary people who can't get into school? It's just a waste of their tuition fees.
Unfortunately, this matter is the same as the previous spiritual root test. The masses have the right to make suggestions, but they do not have the right to object. If they do not accept it, then they will not be admitted. Without them, there will still be plenty of people eager to get in.
The country is doing its best to arrange domestic issues of public welfare, but it cannot meet foreign demands. Foreign journalists' repeated inquiries could only get a perfunctory answer, which kept repeating that it had been put on the agenda and that national leaders were already discussing it. Foreign journalists are of course also very dissatisfied, but the seller's market is so unreasonable that they can only obey.
After the serious political interviews, it was time to interview the elite class students.
The first to bear the brunt of course were the siblings Gu Jiayan and Chu Yi. They were both direct disciples of the Dragon Lord. To be frank, their status was higher than that of the chairman of the flower-growing company. They couldn't interview Long Jun, and the same was true for interviewing them.
Therefore, when Foreign Minister Meng Pu, who was chairing the meeting, announced that questions could be asked freely, the reporters asked Gu Jiayan and Chu Yi questions like crazy. The interview questions ranged from spiritual talents to daily hobbies, and even the criteria for choosing a spouse were asked, leaving Gu Jiayan and Chu Yi speechless.
However, it was after this interview that the doubts on the Internet about their ability to be accepted as disciples by the Dragon King completely disappeared. After all, one has an innate Taoist body and top-grade five elements spiritual roots, and the other has a Hunyuan body that can absorb all energy. Both of them have super-strong cultivation physiques that are one in a billion. It is only natural that they would be favored by the Dragon King.
The incidental result is that the two people's popularity has increased even more. The number of fans of some public accounts has instantly exceeded 100 million, and the comments under the recent updates are increasing at a rate of tens of thousands per second. One after another, they have been on the hot search list, almost dominating the hot search list, causing these social software to crash several times.
After experiencing the impact of these two people, the splash caused by the other members of the elite class was not that big.
No, there are still some.
After everyone's spiritual roots were exposed, except for those students with top-grade spiritual roots, there were a few people who only had superior spiritual roots but still joined the elite class, which caused some controversy. Compared with the super talents of Gu Jiayan and Chu Yi and the top-grade spiritual roots of several ordinary people, the top-grade spiritual roots are really not that impressive.
Although everyone knows that they were able to join because of their talent and identity background, those who have not yet taken the test always have a feeling that if they did not occupy this place, would they also have a chance to enter Xunzhen Academy?
Regardless of whether this idea is fantastic or not, some people are dissatisfied with their joining and have made many inappropriate remarks on some public platforms. The authorities ignored them and let them talk.
Then Jia Lan's fox demon bloodline also caused a small climax, and her fans even speculated whether she would become a disciple of the monk Baizhi and become the disciple of the fox fairy sister.
After the interview, everyone attended a banquet and, under the leadership of Duan Shi and Secretary Ye, met a number of domestic and foreign celebrities. Normally, these people were people that the students could only look up to, and some of them had only just heard their names for the first time. But at this moment, they were the ones being flattered and praised like snowflakes. For the first time, they felt the change of fate very clearly.
Leaving aside the changes in each of their hearts, the atmosphere between the students was still relatively harmonious. There was no inflated vanity, and they did not look down on classmates whose spiritual roots and talents were not as good as their own. On the contrary, after going through the siege and blockade of media reporters together, they developed a comrade-in-arms relationship with each other and got along more casually.
The higher-ups were happy to see such changes, so they did not intervene.
After everyone returned to the high-end hotel where they were temporarily staying, since it was still early, they did not rush back to their rooms to rest. After the discussion, they found a chat room to chat and get to know each other better.
Chu Yi was pulled by Shi Fan to join the group of girls, and discussed with Liu Jimeng, Gu Qianwen and Jia Lan about the monk teachers who showed up today.
"Does Sister Lan need to wait for Teacher Baizhi to activate her fox bloodline?" Shi Fan asked curiously. She has always been a very outgoing person. After spending some time with a few girls, she no longer concealed her true nature and started chatting with everyone about gossip.
Jia Lan is not opposed to such a personality. After all, she has a younger sister like this around her and she has experience. "Yes, that's what Team Leader Duan and the others arranged." While giving them a positive answer, she also talked about another piece of gossip, "It seems that Secretary Ye and the others had planned to ask His Royal Highness Long Jun for help. Since the Chairman and the others had not received any news that the cultivators would wake up, asking Long Jun for help was the only way."
Chu Yi added: "That's true. Master didn't even tell us about the teachers' awakening. Brother Yan and I only found out today."
She had originally intended to announce the news, but then she got busy with things overseas and forgot about it. She could only launch a surprise attack to give everyone a surprise.
"Teacher Baizhi's moves are pretty good too. That fluffy tail is awesome! I wonder if Sister Lan will also have a tail after she awakens?"
Gu Qianwen held her cheeks, her eyes sparkling with longing. She really wanted to touch the big tail swaying behind Bai Zhi, but unfortunately she could only think about it.
Shi Fan, a senior fur lover who runs a cat cafe at home, was also very eager to see it. She nodded repeatedly and agreed, "Yes, yes, I couldn't take my eyes off Teacher Bai Zhi when she came out. Her white and soft tail really makes people want to pounce on her."
Jia Lan and Liu Jimeng, the two half-demons, couldn't help but laugh. They looked at each other helplessly and couldn't help but complain one by one.
"Fortunately, Teacher Bai Zhi is not here. If she had been a little gentler, I'm afraid you two would have been so bold as to pounce on her and act like hooligans."
"I don't know if I have a tail, but you are strictly prohibited from touching it too much. I'm afraid you will make me bald."
Having been issued the 'ban' in advance, Gu Qianwen and Shi Fan both wailed in long voices: "No, Sister Lan." In order to soften her heart, they even pounced on her from the left and right, hugged her arms and acted coquettishly.
This one said: "It's too cruel to be able to look but not touch, Sister Lan, please don't do this~"
Another one followed up: "We promise we won't go too far! Please don't take away this benefit!"
Jia Lan was so annoyed by the two troublemakers that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He pulled his hand away and gave each of them a roasted chestnut. The two people who ate the chestnuts not only did not restrain themselves, but also became more and more demanding, saying that they had been wronged and that if they wanted compensation, they should let them touch their fur for a while.
Liu Jimeng and Chu Yi just stood by and watched the three people making a mess, but did not go over to help. They just watched Jia Lan frantically dealing with the two childish guys.
Several men chatting in the booths nearby were attracted by them and looked over curiously, and then their eyes were dazzled by several beautiful women with different temperaments.
Everyone here is a recognized beauty by those around them. Even the most ordinary Shi Fan is the first love in many people's hearts. Now that they are gathered together, they can simply blind people's eyes.
