Chapter 36 - Special Recruitment Recommendation

n

n

n

n

n

n“Student Xu Tui, I am Qu Qingshan, and I am an associate professor from the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College Mystery Branch Institute’s School of General Senses,” the bald associate professor actively introduced himself.

n

n“Good morning, Professor,” Xu Tui and Chai Xiao greeted him at the same time.

n

n“Yes, that’s right. I saw that you are enrolled in the School of Enlightened Mind. You have sensory abilities. Why did you not come to the School of General Senses?” the bald professor, Qu Qingshan, went straight to the point.

n

nXu Tui was startled.

n

nWas this bald associate professor trying to poach him away from the School of Enlightened Mind?

n

nWhat was the reason?

n

nWas it because he had exceptional abilities?

n

nWas it because he was too handsome?

n

nBased on principle, Xu Tui did not wish for it to be the latter.

n

nBecause he really was very handsome…

n

nThe probability of the associate professor poaching him because he was handsome was too terrifying.

n

nBy the side, Chai Xiao was also very shocked.

n

nUnder normal circumstances, the issue of poaching was very rarely seen in the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College.

n

nOf course, there was the occasional fighting for the extremely gifted talents. Associate professors and even the department heads would go all out for those people.

n

nHowever, even though Xu Tui, who was in front of him, had activated a little more genetic base points than an average student. He had not displayed any startling direction in his genetic talent ability.

n

n“Thank you, Professor Qu, but I have already chosen the School of Enlightened Mind.”

n

n“It’s alright. Choices can be changed.” Qu Qingshan flashed a wide smile. “I think that with your talents, you are more suited to be developed in the School of General Senses.” The bald Qu Qingshan did not have any intention of giving up.

n

n“Thank you for your kind intentions, Professor,” Xu Tui refused politely. “Actually, I think that my talent in general sense is very average. You also saw it from the results of the test just now.”

n

nThe bald Qu Qingshan glanced at the testing equipment, then turned to look at Xu Tui again. He then said, “That toy might not be accurate sometimes.”

n

nXu Tui’s heart tightened when he heard that.

n

nDid this bald professor notice his false report just now?

n

nHowever, after thinking about it, Xu Tui eliminated that possibility.

n

nHe should not be that powerful.

n

nMental senses were a mysterious and illusory force. If this bald associate professor could monitor what he did with his mental senses, the associate professor would possess ungodly power.

n

n‘Perhaps it is just his suspicion?’

n

n“Thank you, Professor. I…”

n

n“Don’t be in a hurry to refuse me,” the professor was quick to reply. “I think that it is suitable for you to develop yourself in the School of General Senses. Also, I have a special recruitment recommendation.”

n

n“I can give you the special recruitment recommendation. We can boost your level assessment by a grade for this year,” the bald professor, Qu Qingshan immediately offered a tempting condition.

n

nChai Xiao opened his mouth wide.

n

nSpecial recruitment recommendation…

n

nDarn it.

n

nHe had long heard about the school’s special recruitment recommendation. However, these recommendations were only held by experienced and esteemed professors. There were a very limited number of them.

n

nHe had never seen anyone get the special recruitment recommendation.

n

nHowever, he was seeing one in person right now.

n

nIt was even being used by a professor to poach a student from another school.

n

nSenior Chai Xiao was jealous again.

n

nAt this moment, Xu Tui’s emotions were extremely complex.

n

nThe offer that Professor Qu Qingshan proposed was very alluring, increasing the treatment of a specially recruited student by a grade. What Xu Tui would receive were cold, hard benefits.

n

nThese kinds of benefits were extremely important to a student like Xu Tui, whose family background was very ordinary.

n

nIt was not only about helping Xu Tui reduce the burden on his family. It could greatly assist Xu Tui in his future.

n

nHowever, Xu Tui couldn’t jump to the School of General Senses immediately.

n

nFirstly, he was scared.

n

nXu Tui really did not want to become a spy.

n

nSecondly, based on what Xu Tui had learned these past few days, he knew that his mind power was quite powerful.

n

nAn Xiaoxue’s mind power was equally powerful.

n

nThe abilities that An Xiaoxue displayed when they had been assaulted by the earth-element superb individual the other day were extremely powerful.

n

nMost of the abilities were extensions of her mind power.

n

nXu Tui felt that An Xiaoxue might be more suitable as his teacher.

n

nA correct direction was more important than anything else.

n

nIf he was on the wrong course, it would be useless even if he was sitting on an ultrasonic jet.

n

n“Thank you, Teacher. I…”

n

n“Don’t be in such a hurry to refuse. Take some time to consider it. It is a special recruitment recommendation. There are only one or two spots in each school.”

n

nThere was an alluring tone in Qu Qingshan’s voice. Clearly, he had managed to determine something from Xu Tui’s test just now.

n

n“Brother, largely speaking, the School of General Senses is much better than the School of Enlightened Mind. I think that you can consider it.”

n

nQu Qingshan had a look of approval when he heard Chai Xiao’s words. He thought that Chai Xiao was an understanding lad.

n

n“However, you would have to obtain approval from your teacher if you wish to switch schools. She has to sign and approve of your request before you can switch schools,” Chai Xiao said.

n

n“Don’t worry, there’s no way that your request will be rejected. I’ll personally voice the request if there are any problems.” Qu Qingshan had a confident expression.

n

n“That’s right. Professor An Xiaoxue should be understanding enough.”

n

nChai Xiao seemed to be murmuring to himself. However, the name ‘An Xiaoxue’ caused Qu Qingshan’s expression to change. Even his voice started to tremble slightly.

n

n“Your teacher is…An Xiaoxue?”

n

n“That’s right, it’s Professor An. I am the student that Professor An recruited from Jincheng Prefecture this time,” Xu Tui said.

n

n“Not bad.”

n

nQu Qingshan’s smile was a little unnatural.

n

n“Yes, Xu Tui, you can consider the matter for yourself. I’ll definitely welcome you if you want to come to the School of General Senses.

n

n“Of course, it depends entirely on your will and choice.

n

n“It must be in your free will that you come to the School of General Senses.

n

n“Yes, free will!”

n

nQu Qingshan seemed to be constantly emphasizing the words ‘free will’. It sounded a little strange.

n

n“Thank you, Professor. I’ll consider it.”

n

nXu Tui turned to leave with Chai Xiao after he said that.

n

nHe was about to leave when the snub-nosed teenager completed his test.

n

n“Du Hong, you activated 15 genetic base points and have a fundamental rating of low-grade Level D. However, your sensory abilities have been rated as exceptional. We can raise your fundamental rating by two grades. Your rating can be set as high-grade Level D.

n

n“Yes, you should belong to the School of General Senses. If you have no problems, you can sign here and acknowledge your results.”

n

nXu Tui was a little curious upon hearing the snub-nosed teenager’s results.

n

nThe sensory abilities of the teenager that he chided just now were exceptional. What were his specific scores?

n

nWhen he saw that Qu Qingshan had already walked far away from him, Xu Tui gathered his focus and instantly ‘saw’ the contents of Du Hong’s result slip.

n

nSensory distance, 2.98 meters; clarity rating of the senses, ‘Clear’, larger than 0.5 millimeters…

n

nDu Hong’s sensory distance was not much shorter than Xu Tui’s. However, the clarity of his senses was much weaker than Xu Tui’s.

n

nTen target objects were used to test for the clarity of a student’s senses in the test installation.

n

nLarger than 0.5 millimeters…

n

nThat meant that Du Hong had seen the seventh object clearly, but not the eighth object.

n

nThe seventh object had words that were 0.7 millimeters large, while the eighth had words that were 0.5 millimeters large. The ninth was 0.3 millimeters, and the last one was 0.1 millimeters.

n

nXu Tui did not have to use any effort to see the 10th object clearly.

n

n‘Yes, I am more powerful. I am more intelligent.’ Xu Tui suddenly had a thought.

n

nDu Hong’s mental senses had been graded as excellent. Would he be regarded as a unique talent and be chosen for special training?

n

nTo undertake intelligence work…

n

nBe a spy or something?

n

n“I’ll have to take note of what he is doing in the future when I have time…”

n

nXu Tui left with Chai Xiao.

n

nDu Hong, who had just taken his result slip, turned around excitedly. He wanted to boast about his results to Xu Tui. However, he saw that Xu Tui had already left the area and could only see his back from a distance…

n

n…

n

n“Senior Chai, I’ve already completed the test of the general senses. Does this mean that the results of my level assessment have been decided?” Xu Tui chatted with Chai Xiao along the way.

n

n“More or less. Low-grade Level C. You got a scholarship for low-grade Level C the moment you entered the school. To tell you the truth, I am a little envious.” Chai Xiao sighed. “When I entered the school, I only got a mid-grade Level D. I toiled for an entire year before obtaining the low-grade Level C treatment I have now…”

n

nChai Xiao was a little sad and envious.

n

nSeeing how sad Chai Xiao was, Xu Tui could not help but ask, “Senior Chai, I read from the student handbook that I can still improve my grade if I have good or exceptional abilities. What do you think of my bean-flicking technique?”

n

n“Oh, yes, does the bean-flicking technique count as an ability from the Extreme Branch? Does an ability from the Extreme Branch count toward the rating in the Mystery Branch?” Xu Tui asked in a hurry.

n

n“It counts. It doesn’t matter if it is from the Extreme Branch or Mystery Branch. It would count as long as it is an ability…”

n

nChai Xiao was a bit dejected. He had been feeling jealous for the longest time, yet he forgot that Xu Tui still had an ability.

n

nIf there were no accidents, based on Chai Xiao’s previous experience with his front teeth, he felt that Xu Tui’s bean-flicking technique might get an exceptional rating.

n

nMid-grade Level C?

n

nXu Tui had not even entered the school yet, but the treatment he would get was already higher than a senior like Chai Xiao who had toiled for a year.

n

nChai Xiao became even more envious.

n

nThe testing location for the bean-flicking technique was at the testing station for upper limb strength at the Extreme Branch.

n

nThere had not been many people at the Mystery Branch Institute, be it in the School of Enlightened Mind or the School of General Senses.

n

nThere had been no need to queue.

n

nHowever, at the Extreme Branch, Xu Tui truly realized what a crowd was.

n

nThere were 10 long lines at the testing station for upper limb strength. Every line had more than 50 people in front of him.

n

nThis queue caused Xu Tui and Chai Xiao to gasp at the same time.

n

n“Alright, Brother, you can queue on your own. There are about 50 people in the queue. That should take about 90 minutes. I’ll come to look for you in an hour and a half. I’ll go guide the rest of the students.” Chai Xiao left after he said that.

n

nThen, Xu Tui called Cheng Mo.

n

nCheng Mo was full of grievances. He said that he had become hungry while queuing, but it had not reached his turn.

n

nThere were too many people.

n

nOut of the 11 genetic base points that Cheng Mo had activated, seven of them were in the stomach while four had to do with his spine and waist strength. In the end, he was recruited into the Huaxia Genetic Evolution College’s School of Power.

n

nThere was a designated faculty within the School of Power that admitted students who had activated weird or less-desirable genetic base points like Cheng Mo.

n

nThus, Cheng Mo had been allocated to the Extreme Branch Institute.

n

nIt was natural for it to be crowded.

n

nThe Huaxia Genetic Evolution College was the top college in the Huaxia Sector. Even though it had a stringent requirement when it came to recruiting students, it faced the applications of students in the entire Huaxia Sector.

n

nThere were over 30 prefectures. They recruited over 6,000 students a year.

n

nIt was rumored that they recruited almost 7,000 students this year.

n

nThat did not include the students who had entered the college through other means, such as the descendants of heroes who had entered because of their high individual rights.

n

nThe number of new students definitely exceeded 7,000.

n

nHowever, out of the 7,000 students, over 90% belonged to the Extreme Branch Institute.

n

nThere might just be 10% of the students in the Mystery Branch Institute. It might even be lesser than that.

n

nThat included the students who have been sent to the School of Enlightened Mind to make up the numbers.

n

nHowever, Xu Tui was not a stranger to waiting in line.

n

nWhen he was in his second year of high school, he had queued an hour for a famous bubble tea store.

n

nWhen he was in his first year of middle school, his father had dragged him along to queue at a supermarket at seven in the morning to purchase eggs at a 40% discount.

n

nThey queued three hours for the eggs.

n

nAs for why Xu Jianguo had dragged Xu Tui along, the reason was simple: limited purchase.

n

nA person could only buy two pounds of eggs.

n

nThey would have two people if he dragged Xu Tui along.

n

nThus, Xu Tui was not anxious when he faced the queue. He had completed most of his tests today anyway.

n

nIf he could get a good rating for his finger strength test, he might be able to obtain a rating of mid-grade Level C.

n

nXu Tui was rather looking forward to it.

n

nHe scrolled through social media and looked to see if there were any new dramas. Ninety minutes would pass rather quickly.

n

nHowever, the sun over his head was blazing.

n

nHe did not bring an umbrella.

n

nDuring this time, Chai Xiao had brought several students to the Extreme Branch Institute to join the queue. Yet, it was not Xu Tui’s turn.

n

nHowever, the time passed rather quickly.

n

nFinally, it was almost Xu Tui’s turn.

n

nXu Tui took out his material and was about to pass it to the teacher.

n

nSuddenly, Xu Tui’s communication device started to beep continuously.

n

nThe tones signaled that he had received seven to eight messages.

n

nAt the same time, a commotion suddenly burst out from the testing station for finger and palm strength behind him.

n

nA new student, who was exuding a ferocious aura, brought along three other students as he charged forward from the back of the queue. He forcefully cut himself into the queue at the very front.

n
