Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree Chapter 256 148: Breaking Even, The Summer Wind2

The other party responded: "We understand the rules."

Huang Fuxing nodded in satisfaction, good, that settles the account!

He glanced at the contact list's add requests and thought to himself, why hasn't Ji Jingqiu added him as a terminal friend yet...

Sigh, hopefully, after he receives the Arhat Fruit, he'll successfully Reverse Innate and advance further!

...

Han Sea Academy, Sea Martial Association.

"You Rong, the higher-ups would like to invite you for an exclusive interview, do you have so free ti recently?"

Yang Xin, a director of the Sea Martial Association, approached Yue Yourong.

"Exclusive interview?" Yue Yourong, who had just finished her daily ditation, asked with raised eyebrows, "What interview?"

"The Group Stars List of the Four Guardian Stars."

"Group Stars List..." Yue Yourong paused, then suddenly realized, "Is it ti for the 'Newcors' Welco' every half-year again?"

"Yes, this ti, our Academy has welcod eight new students."

Yue Yourong understood.

It was ti for the biannual "Newcors' Welco."

The Four Guardian Stars open biannually, and before the next batch of martial artists arrives, the Group Stars List is rearranged, featuring the previous batch of martial artists.

She had entered the Four Guardian Stars six months ago.

Ti flies, half a year just passed in a blink.

Looking back at how spirited and confident she was when she first arrived at the Four Guardian Stars six months ago, and at her current self - they were almost like two different people, her temperant had beco much more stable.

Yang Xin added: "Additionally, regarding the recruitnt of new mbers for the next term of Sea Martial Association, we also need you to make the final decision."

Yue Yourong gently massaged her temples. As the president of the Sea Martial Association, her position was equivalent to a Daoist of a dojo. Apart from obtaining an abundance of resources, she also had to deal with the Academy's daily affairs.

Such as recruitnt for the Academy.

"Any geniuses appeared in the Academy this year?" asked Yue Yourong.

"There are a few first-year students we can look forward to, they all have a reasonable chance of breaking through the Fifth Limit of Heavenly Person," said Yang Xin.

Yue Yourong listened and rely nodded indifferently.

Breaking through the Fifth Limit of Heavenly Person was but a threshold to see her.

"That's right, there's a special case I need to report to you," Yang Xin suddenly rembered sothing and spoke softly, "Leng Dao from Tiangong Heavy Workshop has sent us a recomndation letter, for a first-year student nad Ruan Qingshan."

"Leng Dao?" Yue Yourong's interest was piqued, "The last generation's owner of the 'Heavenly Blade' title?"

Leng Dao was the Martial Arts Pride of the previous generation and should be currently challenging the Heart Image.

"Yes."

Yue Yourong thought for a mont and asked, "Anything special about this Ruan Qingshan?"

"We've observed him, there's quite a difficulty for the Fifth Limit of Heavenly Person."

Yue Yourong instantly lost interest and said, "Well, let's watch and see. If he ets the minimum requirents from previous years, accept him into the Academy. If he can't even et the minimum requirents, then forget it."

Leng Dao might indeed be the forr Martial Arts Pride, but that doesn't an she has to give face.

If the person is competent, she might show so favor, but if he couldn't even et the past minimum standards, recruiting him would just lower the standards of the Sea Martial Association.

The Sea Martial Association was built on the foundation of Han Sea Academy, with mbers spread throughout the Federation. A Martial Arts Pride from the past in her eyes was not enough for her to violate the traditions of the Academy.

"Any news about the arrangents for the Great Martial Arts Competition?" Yue Yourong inquired.

"Not yet, but I've heard that the Federation's high-level officials are planning to select so young martial artists to prepare for an exchange competition in a month."

"Exchange competition?"

"Yes, specific details are yet unclear."

Afterward, Yang Xin reported recent affairs to her.

As Yang Xin reported, Yue Yourong's thoughts wandered off.

Speaking of which... from their batch of half a year ago, who were considered most likely to reach the top?

Ah, Ying Longsheng, Yin Wushuang, Zhang Buzhou...

Ying Longsheng, who encountered so complications during his Cultivation Body process, had already dropped to the Second Tier of martial arts geniuses.

As for Zhang Buzhou...

This person is now forced to go by the na "Zhang Sandao."

Strictly speaking, Zhang Sandao is actually quite strong, but he picked the wrong opponent.

And with the Divine Power Group's excessive promotion from previous years, the public backlash was to be expected.

Yue Yourong stood before a floor-to-ceiling window, looking sideways at the city still basking in the last remnants of sumr beneath her.

She gently lifted her hand, brushing back the hair from her forehead, recalling the series of events that unfolded this past sumr.

First was the breakthrough of the Sixth Limit, followed by soone demolishing the pre-Cultivation Body records, claiming the seventh floor, and finally a surprising selection competition...

All this could not have happened without the arrival of an "exchange student" as if sent by the divine.

Indeed.

Sumr always brings with it unexpected winds.

This breeze brought about soone abnormal, beyond conventional explanations.

Fortunately, sumr was about to end.

"Speaking of..." Yue Yourong went silent for a mont, her expression peculiar as she said, "Theoretically, Ji Jingqiu should be in the sa period as these newbies, right? So, did this period's Four Guardian Stars List include Ji Jingqiu on it?"

This question suddenly silenced Yang Xin.

Everyone had heard about Ji Jingqiu's situation; when his qualifications were being reviewed earlier this year, he hadn't even started on Martial Arts yet.

He went through a special channel, entering the Four Guardian Stars two months in advance. Strictly speaking, his qualification review had just officially passed not long ago, making him a "newcor" of this batch.

But this ti, the Four Guardian Stars List updated the data of the previous martial artists.

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes conveying a clear ssage.

This was a question that could make certain people's heads hurt so much they might lose their hair.

...

Deep Red Laboratory.

As soon as the special envoy from the Federation Capital disembarked the spaceship, they hurried to Deep Red Laboratory and made it their first priority to visit an elderly Grandmaster seated in the Four Guardian Stars.
