Tianmeng Iceworm was also numb at this time.
I originally thought that I would take Yuhao to find the Ice Emperor after he earned some extra money from his job as a soul mentor and then take him to find the Ice Emperor. Unexpectedly, Huo Yuhao's talent attracted more attention than he initially imagined.
"Hey, Yuhao, don't get excited. You are my chosen one. What does this little scene mean?"
"So, Brother Tianmeng, you must have seen many big scenes in your millions of years of life, right?"
"That's of course. When I faced the pursuit of ferocious beasts, I fled from the Far North to the Star Dou Forest and escaped twice..."
Xuan Ziwen looked at Jing Hongchen, who was greeting Huo Yuhao, and couldn't help but feel disgusted.
He didn't believe that Jing Hongchen only knew Huo Yuhao today. Even Jing Hongchen himself said that he had been paying attention to Huo Yuhao after he passed the first-level soul teacher exam.
Then what did you do earlier? Do you have to wait until the dust settles and Huo Yuhao’s talent is proven before you start betting on him?
Isn't it just a card... Xuan Ziwen didn't get such a high-level card when he was in school, but there are actually some student cards issued to outstanding students that can have similar effects.
At most, the difference is that one eats for free and the other eats at a 30% discount. Although even if the small stoves in the cafeteria are offered with a 30% discount, it is still an unaffordable expense for lower grade students.
Jing Hongchen slapped Xuan Ziwen's paw off Huo Yuhao's shoulder with a snap, and put his own hand on it.
"Yuhao, Teacher Yu and I have reported that you plan to earn money to support yourself by taking on tasks outside the college. Now the college has taken care of your normal living expenses, and will also give you a considerable subsidy to purchase metal and To improve your life, don’t waste your time and talents doing cheap labor.”
Huo Yuhao never dreamed that it would be his turn to say, "No one wants you for outsourcing."
The leader of Hongchen Hall is so willing to take care of potential students directly.
"If you really lack money to buy metal or do other things, just tell the academy that when your soul master level increases, the value of a work will be dozens or hundreds of times more than what you make now in the same time."
In fact, some classmates have proposed to Huo Yuhao these days to buy the soul tools produced by him, but they were all rejected by Huo Yuhao - the quotations they proposed were all much higher than the market price. To put it bluntly, they were giving Huo Yuhao money to make a good relationship.
This kind of debt of gratitude is nothing more than a favor. The key is that it can’t be exchanged for even a few dollars. It’s not even enough to go to the cafeteria and eat a few good meals. It can only be said that the profit margin of first- and second-level soul tools is indeed higher than that of ordinary metal products. Level 4 is the watershed that distinguishes low-level from intermediate-level, and the profit rate skyrockets...
Therefore, all the second-level soul tools that Huo Yuhao had practiced were recycled by the academy at a price close to the cost, and some of them ended up on Jing Hongchen's table.
(Although Huo Yuhao is already able to make second-level soul tools, outsourced workers must hold certificates to work. Very few students will skip the grade exam if they are strong enough, so there is almost no room for second-level dealers to survive in the academy)
"As for apprenticeship, Yuhao, you are only twelve years old. You are still far away from the college's regulations that require you to leave school before reaching the third level of soul master after the age of eighteen. You must seriously consider being responsible for yourself. You should not do it hastily. Decide."
Xuan Ziwen's eyes became a bit wrong.
Who is scolding me?
After Jing Hongchen comforted Huo Yuhao, he turned to Xuan Ziwen and said, "Teacher Xuan, I remember that your project seems to have been arranged for experiments in the past two days. Don't you need to supervise it personally?"
Hearing Jing Hongchen's unabashed expulsion order, Xuan Ziwen snorted dissatisfiedly, but he still raised his legs and walked towards the door of the examination room.
Before leaving, Xuan Ziwen turned around and shouted to Huo Yuhao:
"Yu Hao remembers coming to my laboratory to study often. I told you the address!"
Jing Hongchen: What did I miss when I was away? ? ?
…………
Mingdu, Hanyue Auction House.
As a long-established auction house located near the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, wealthy students like to come to the peripheral showroom (long-term retail area) to see what new products are on the market to choose from. Students with no money also come here from time to time. See if there is any chance of missing something.
Visitors are not allowed to enter the auction house's core auction venue, and capital verification is required before participating in the auction.
There are many private rooms in the area with the clearest view of the auction house. Some are used on a mobile basis and receive different guests each time, while some are reserved by long-term patrons.
At this time, in an elegantly decorated box, a young man and woman were watching the bidding on the field.
The girl's long silver straight hair was gathered to the right side and combed into a ponytail, and her aqua blue eyes seemed to have rippling waves.
"Brother, have you heard? There is a student who passed the second-level soul master exam just four months after enrolling. He created the history of the empire for thousands of years. Even grandpa was shocked."
(Meng Hongchen has long burgundy hair in the book, but the setting in the comic is silver hair. In order to reduce the sense of inconsistency caused by the different hair colors of the siblings and the white hair setting is more popular, the setting from the comic is inherited here)
Meng Hongchen was not interested in the items being auctioned, but the news she heard today was really interesting. She looked at her brother's reaction with a smile, and a hint of mischief flashed in her eyes.
"Humph, you don't have confidence now, Meng? We, brother and sister, are the number one geniuses in the empire in thousands of years. It's not like you to be affected by such a trivial matter."
Meng Hongchen rubbed the ends of his hair with his fingertips and said nonchalantly: "Don't pull me in. It's enough for you to be the first genius. But this junior is two months faster than you were. Grandpa also said that he If it weren’t for getting high marks, I would actually be able to pass the second-level soul engineer exam in three months.”
Xiao Hongchen hugged his shoulders and maintained a seemingly calm posture.
In fact, I feel sad inside.
"There's no comparison, Meng. We were both soul masters and soul mentors at the beginning, and we didn't devote all our efforts to learning soul tools."
"Become a second-level soul master with full marks in four months~"
"Meng, we are unparalleled geniuses recognized by the academy and even the empire."
"It has created a record for the academy for thousands of years~"
"Those are all short-lived and illusory praises like shooting stars. Dreams, your own strength is eternal."
"Grandpa almost got into a fight with Teacher Xuan Ziwen to grab him~"
Xiao Hongchen's tense face finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"I can tell, Meng, you can't see that I'm in a good mood today, can you?"
Meng Hongchen picked up the drink on the armrest and took a sip: "Xiaodujichang, I just want to share some news with you. Don't you think such a junior can indeed be called a genius?"
"We have seen a lot of geniuses, and there are differences between people. There is no comparison between those so-called geniuses and us brothers and sisters. We are thirteen or fourteen-year-old quasi-soul kings."
"Indeed, I think there is a gap between you and the second-level soul engineer who has just turned twelve."
"Paji!"
Xiao Hongchen crushed the drink packaging on the armrest.
"I am already preparing for the exam of the fourth-level soul master. I will definitely become a genuine fourth-level soul master before the next continental college soul fighting competition!"
Meng Hongchen nodded lightly: "I know, but I remember that it took you one year from enrollment to promotion to second-level soul instructor, and nearly another year to pass the third-level soul instructor..."
"You can't get over this, right! Meng, just wait, I won't bully him. When he becomes a fourth-level soul engineer, I'll invite him to a fight. Isn't that what you want to see?"
Meng Hongchen smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, this is the first time I've met someone who can laugh at you for being so worried. Now that you've spoken out what's on your mind, don't you feel better?"
Xiao Hongchen's voice sounded a little lacking in confidence: "Who's holding a grudge? It's you who's always been the one making the fuss..."
"Yeah, that's right. When I went to find grandpa, I saw you through the crack of the office door holding a student's information sheet. You were reading it carefully, so I didn't bother you. Could it be that you finally have a girl you like?"
Xiao Hongchen's face quickly turned red and warmed up.
"However, I remind you, smile." Meng Hongchen took a sip of the drink and still looked at the embarrassed Xiao Hongchen with a smile.
"You are two or three years older than him, and the education you received since childhood is much better than him. You started studying in the academy when you were ten years old. These differences are visible to everyone. When he also becomes a fourth-level soul engineer, , even if you win, it may not be something worth bragging about in the eyes of others."
"And looking at this junior's momentum, he might be promoted to a fourth-level soul master faster than you. Then it will be really embarrassing, laugh."
Xiao Hongchen slapped the armrest hard:
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, I am invincible among my peers in Xiao Hongchen!"
