Chapter 59 - Give Me Sixteen Special Admission Spots
Chapter 59: Give Me Sixteen Special Admission Spots
“Sixteen? Do you think special admission spots are like cabbages in a market? There has to be a reason!” Lin Liang said with a slight headache.
“For example?”
“There must be something special.”
“Then what reason did Grandpa Lin use to give me a special admission spot?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.
“You are a Spiritual Monarch, a fifteen-year-old Spiritual Monarch,” Lin Liang said.
“What if all sixteen of them are at least Spiritual Monarchs?” Leng Ruoxue probed.
“All Spiritual Monarchs? Where did you get so many Spiritual Monarchs? If they’re all Spiritual Monarchs, there will definitely be no problem, but only if they’re under thirty years old,” Lin Liang said. If someone could advance to Spiritual Monarch before 30 years old, they would be considered a top talent even in top families. Not only would the families focus on nurturing such talents, but they would also be welcomed by the major academies.
“Then Grandpa Lin, please help me with the special admissions procedures. These sixteen people are all Spiritual Monarchs,” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Really? There are really sixteen Spiritual Monarchs…” Lin Liang said in disbelief.
“Of course!”
“Wait for me.” Lin Liang finished the admission procedures as quickly as possible.
…
“Principal, you have to give us an explanation for this. What right does Leng Ruoxue have to chase the students out of the Sacred Hall?” Chen Jian barged into the principal’s office and roared furiously.
“She was the one who chased them out? Why did I hear that the students requested to withdraw themselves?” Lin Liang said. With the 16 Spiritual Monarchs Ruoxue mentioned, he was much more confident. He greatly admired that little girl from the bottom of his heart. That girl was much more daring and ruthless than him. Alas, I’m really old.
“But she can’t really let those students withdraw. They are all Spiritual Monarchs, the best students in our academy and the face of our Heavenly Phoenix Academy. If the Rising Dragon Academy and the Moon Shadow Academy know about this, who knows how they will laugh at our academy?” Chen Jian roared.
“So you want Ruoxue to withdraw?” Lin Liang asked lightly.
“She can solve this problem by withdrawing by herself, so of course she has to consider the overall situation. This is also for the good of our academy!” Chen Jian said as if it was obvious, not thinking that his reason was excessive at all.
“Do you want me to leave the academy as well and give you the position of principal?” Lin Liang said with a spurious smile.
“Of course… not! How could that be possible? You’re the principal!” Chen Jian was shocked. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough. He had almost said what was on his mind just now!
It was impossible to become the vice principal without a brain. While he had wanted to be the principal for a long time, he knew that his ability wasn’t enough to convince the masses. Moreover, it wouldn’t do if they didn’t have a Spiritual Supremacy in their midst as one of the three major academies. Therefore, before he had absolute confidence, he could only add some tension for the principal whenever he was free.
“You actually know that I’m the principal? How dare you question me then? This matter was planned by your precious granddaughter. Did you discuss it beforehand?” Lin Liang asked coldly. He used to focus on cultivation and almost didn’t care about the academy’s affairs. For many things, he could turn a blind eye as long as they didn’t cross his bottom line. But since Ruohan’s incident, these troublesome matters had obviously crossed his bottom line. Hmph, did they really think I will continue to tolerate them?
“H-how is that possible? Fang’er has always been very prestigious among the students. You know this to be true, Principal. They didn’t like Leng Ruoxue as their leader, so they looked for Fang’er. Fang’er had no choice but to do this for the sake of the academy’s reputation.” Chen Jian wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He had told Fang’er to find someone else to do it, but the students of similar status as Fang’er had made all sorts of excuses. Finding someone without much prestige wouldn’t achieve the effect they wanted, so Chen Fang had no choice but to be the representative in the end. But things still didn’t go according to their plans and even went out of their control.
“Then what is your job as a grandfather? You’re also the vice principal of the academy. Are you going to let your granddaughter do whatever she wants and destroy the academy’s reputation?” Lin Liang questioned.
“Erm… I didn’t know about it beforehand,” Chen Jian denied.
“Regardless of whether you knew about it or not, since this matter has already happened, there is no room for negotiation. I will leave those students who voluntarily requested to withdraw from the Sacred Hall to you. I will not interfere in this matter!” Lin Liang said. Taking the initiative to withdraw from the Sacred Hall indicated wanting to leave the academy. Moreover, this matter was started by Chen Fang. It was imaginable how great the impact this matter had on this grandfather and granddaughter. He would rather sacrifice a little reputation than to tolerate them.
“Principal…” Chen Jian didn’t expect Lin Liang to be unwilling to care. Doesn’t he care about the academy’s reputation the most? Why is he…
…
“Xue’er, are you okay?” Feng Moran couldn’t help asking worriedly when he saw Leng Ruoxue return. The news that the students of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy’s Sacred Hall had collectively requested to withdraw from the Sacred Hall had already spread throughout Phoenix City.
“What could happen to me?” Leng Ruoxue was puzzled. It should be Chen Fang and her vice principal grandfather who were in trouble!
“Deputy Leader Feng, I told you long ago that our young lady is strong-minded. This small matter is nothing!” Feng Da said with a smile. In his heart, his young lady could solve anything, even if it were as big as the sky.
“Well said. Here, this is your reward.” Leng Ruoxue threw Feng Da a golden badge.
“What is this? It’s pretty heavy. Is it made of gold?” Feng Da asked, being the money-grubber he was.
“That is the badge of a Heavenly Phoenix Academy student. From now on, you are a student of the academy,” Leng Ruoxue explained.
“What? I… How is this possible?” The Heavenly Phoenix Academy was one of the three major academies on the Ling Feng Continent. It was a holy land that countless people dreamed of. He didn’t even dare to think about it.
“Why not? Why would I lie to you?” Leng Ruoxue pretended to be displeased.
“Hehe, how could Miss lie to me?” Feng Da said with a grin. Anybody else would have reasons to lie to him, but the young lady had nothing to lie to him about.
