Astral Apostle

Chapter 290: Reward and Invitation (2)

“How can that be! I received a huge sum, so naturally I’ll splurge. Today, let’s go to the high-end private room in the canteen to order food. It’s my treat!”

Li Xiaoyin patted her chest and said generously.

“Sister Yin, stop patting your chest. It’s not big to begin with. If you pat some more, it’ll be flat.” Xu Lingyun reminded her kindly.

Li Xiaoyin’s eyes were as sharp as blades as she glared at Xu Lingyun.

Zhang Xiao took out his phone and handed it to Zhou Jing, “Brother Jing, I recorded your battle. Shall I return it to you?”

“Oh, thanks a lot.” Zhou Jing took a look and nodded with a smile.

Before the competition began, he had instructed Zhang Xiao to record everything, preparing to study his shortcomings in detail later.

Especially when he fought Li Xiaoyin, he was severely restrained. He wanted to think about how to crack it and see where he could improve.

When he first got defeated, he was naturally a little depressed, but now, he had already adjusted himself. He was calm and prepared to turn this loss into his own experience… After all, although he had experienced the tempering of the Mutant World and was very good at fighting in the same period, there was still room for improvement.

“By the way, I can buy the subsequent genetic potions now. Do you want to use them?”

Zhou Jing asked Zhang Xiao.

Zhang Xiao thought for a moment and shook his head, “I’m still in school, and my main focus is to study. I’m not in a hurry to continue strengthening. It’s quite troublesome to train my control again, and the genetic potion is quite expensive.”

Seeing this, Li Xiaoyin also remembered and turned to look at Xu Lingyun, “What about you?”

“Me too.” Xu Lingyun shrugged and chuckled. “I’m gradually improving in the Martial Techniques Path. It’s not a good thing to suddenly strengthen myself.”

“Alright, tell us when you need strengthening.” Zhou Jing nodded.

It was already close to evening. The four of them chatted and laughed as they followed the crowd to the canteen. They booked a private room for a sumptuous dinner.

After the dinner, Zhou Jing returned to the dormitory and placed the medal in the cupboard. After admiring it for a while, he opened his personal terminal and browsed the academy forum as a form of entertainment.

After watching for half an hour, the doorbell suddenly rang.

When he opened the door, he saw that it was Deng Yunjie.

“Brother Jie, why are you looking for me?”

Zhou Jing welcomed the other party in and asked curiously.

“Ha, I’m here to chat with you. Congratulations on winning second place in the group arena. This is a good start for your academy career. I just entered the school back then and only had a participation prize in the freshman competition. I’m much worse than you.”

Deng Yunjie’s collar was open, and he looked sloppy. He sat down with a smile, took out a cigarette, and put it in his mouth. He casually handed the cigarette box to Zhou Jing and shook it, indicating for him to take one.

“Thank you, but I don’t smoke.” Zhou Jing waved his hand politely and sat down on the chair beside him.

When Deng Yunjie heard this, he put away his cigarette box and casually placed the cigarette on his ear. He smiled and said, “This is a good habit. You have to maintain it.”

“I’ll try my best.” Zhou Jing shrugged.

Deng Yunjie smacked his lips and said casually, “It’s getting late, so I won’t waste your time. I’ll get straight to the point. Your Class A potential evaluation has been reviewed, and it will be changed in two days. At that time, you will enjoy the corresponding treatment.”

“Thank you.” Zhou Jing smiled.

Because of his “Ability Mutation”, he had submitted an application to reevaluate his potential before the competition. Under the request of the instructor team, it was only officially changed after the competition.

From now on, his file would write that he had Class A potential. At least he had squeezed into the ranks of those with high potential.

The substantial benefit was that the monthly subsidy would increase from 9,000 to 15,000 Nassau.

However, with his current ability, reaching Class A potential was already the limit. It was unlikely to go further unless he “mutated” again.

Deng Yunjie rubbed his chin and said, “In addition, your performance in the new student competition was outstanding. I want to ask if you’re interested in joining the Crown Association?”

Zhou Jing blinked, “You plan on recruiting new members?”

“Yes, you also know the nature of the Crown Association. This is a group formed by the leaders of the faculties. They won’t recruit easily. Through this competition, we feel that you have potential to become a leader in the future, so we’re sending you an invitation in advance.”

Deng Yunjie smiled.

The various faculties had similar organizations. They gathered the core figures of a faculty. The members would receive more resources and a bonus to their resume. They could also decide on how to develop their faculties with the instructors team and lead the students to participate in the competition.

Because the older students would graduate sooner or later, such a core group would also recruit new students with potential and nurture them into future leaders.

The benefits were obvious. Zhou Jing thought for a moment and felt that there was no reason to refuse. However, for the sake of caution, he asked,

“If I choose to join, what do I need to do?”

Deng Yunjie smiled and explained,

“You’re still a new student. Now, you only need to bury your head in training and enjoy the benefits brought about by the Crowns. For example, the priority of using all kinds of cultivation equipment, the private guidance of your mentor, and so on. When you reach your second and third semesters, your strength will grow, and you will need to take responsibility and participate in the faculty competitions to fight for honor for us.

Also, if you’re willing to join the Crown Association, you can’t transfer to another faculty.”

Zhou Jing asked curiously, “Other than me, did you invite anyone else this time?”

Deng Yunjie nodded, “We plan to recruit two people this time. One is you, and the other is Ding Qiu.”

“Aren’t you going to invite Tang Liu and Wu Fan?”

“They still need to be observed further.” Deng Yunjie shrugged, “For now, only you and Ding Qiu meet the expectations of the Crown Association… How about it? Are you interested?”
