Chapter 736: Royal Class (I recommend watching it together tomorrow)

Qiao Sang went viral.

When the interview video first appeared in the News Academy column on the school’s official website, all groups related to Yu Liandun University completely exploded.

Everyone was discussing this highly anticipated super freshman.

The discussion, which was originally limited to the Pet Tamer Academy, now covered all academies.

“Three General-level Pets? Only 16 years old?! Holy cow! What kind of Chosen Daughter is this?!”

“I’m done, I’ve already entered Yu Liandun University, and I’m still made to feel the disparity in this world!”

“As someone who came from Blue Star Dragon Country, let me tell you, among Qiao Sang’s three General-level Pets, Flame Qilu is a completely new form, cultivated by her, making it the first of its kind. The normal Ghost Ring King only has Ghost-type attributes, but hers is an异色 (variant color) and has mutated to have Superpower System attributes. And the most, most important thing is her newly evolved Ice Aipalu, which is an endangered Pet! An endangered Pet!!!”

“Aren’t endangered Pets usually only available for contract by big names in relevant research fields?”

“I don’t know about that, but her Ice Aipalu is indeed an endangered Pet, something you normally never see.”

“I found a terrifying point: Qiao Sang’s fourth Pet is the latest evolved form of our Super Dormant Star’s Little Steel Falcon.”

“You mean the Steel Guardian Falcon that was reported to have evolved through bonding last time?”

“Exactly.”

“Oh, my goodness! The one who made Little Steel Falcon evolve through bonding was Qiao Sang?!”

“The Steel Guardian Falcon temporarily evolved during the freshman assessment, so its next stage form shouldn’t need further research; it’s a bond evolution, as long as there’s enough energy.”

“That’s amazing, to be able to make Little Steel Falcon bond evolve for two consecutive forms! This Pet is notoriously difficult to handle.”

“Honestly, isn’t the main point that Yu Liandun University rejected Qiao Sang’s application?”

“Although I love my school very much, I really don’t understand this point.”

“Not being admitted to Yu Liandun University, and then being admitted to Imperial Beast Academy, it’s really laughable to think about.”

“I suggest a thorough investigation of the admissions office teachers. Could they be people from Blue Star?”

In a spacious and luxurious office, a huge virtual screen displayed students’ chat records.

The screen was still constantly refreshing with messages, all questioning the admissions office of Yu Liandun University.

An old man, dressed in a black suit, with white hair, sagging facial muscles, deep wrinkles around his eyes, but a very robust physique, sat at the head of the table, expressionlessly looking at the content on the huge virtual screen in front of him.

The president of Yu Liandun University, Muham Jackman, had called this meeting.

All deans of all academies were present, without exception.

Those at the conference table occasionally glanced at Gilbert, who had an extremely grim expression. Everyone knew that the main subject of this meeting was most likely him.

They also wondered what else the president would say besides holding him accountable.

As the deans of the various academies were pondering, they heard President Muham ask:

“Why was Qiao Sang’s application not approved?”

Here it comes, here it comes… The deans silently exchanged glances, seeing a hint of schadenfreude in each other’s eyes.

Heh, they all want to see me make a fool of myself… Gilbert sneered inwardly, controlled his facial expression, and said unhurriedly:

“This was a result reached through discussion. Qiao Sang’s cultural foundation is too poor and does not quite meet the admission standards.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the deans, who had been quiet moments before, now began to voice their opinions in the conference room:

“She’s only 16 years old, and if you deduct the time spent on competitions, she hasn’t had many proper classes. Aren’t your requirements too high?”

“At 16, her brain region has reached the extent where she can contract four Pets, and two of them are completely new forms she cultivated herself. What if such a person doesn’t have any cultural foundation?”

“Three General-level Pets! The Little Steel Falcon she contracted after coming to our Super Dormant Star also had a completely new form cultivated by her in such a short time. You Pet Tamer Academy didn’t approve such a prodigy; I really don’t know what you’re thinking.”

“It’s a pity she didn’t apply to our Nurturing Institute, otherwise I would have approved her first.”

Gilbert naturally regretted it a million times over, but facing these people who were watching him make a fool of himself, how could he admit his mistake?

He said, turning red with anger:

“When Qiao Sang applied, the information reported was that she didn’t even have a General-level Pet yet!”

Everyone was silent for a moment, then continued their assault:

“Oh my goodness! Only a few months have passed since the application deadline, and she has already cultivated three General-level Pets. Such a prodigy was not approved.”

“It’s not me saying this, but at this age, a brain region reaching over 30% is already enough to prove her talent.”

“The guys at Imperial Beast Academy understood this, but you didn’t.”

Gilbert’s face grew darker and darker.

At this moment, President Muham slowly said:

“I have an idea.”

The conference room quieted down again, and all the deans looked towards the head of the table, including Gilbert.

“Since the matter has occurred, let’s change it. Qiao Sang is currently at our school. I don’t care what method you use, find a way to keep her.”

The dean of the Coordination Academy hesitated, saying:

“This shouldn’t concern our Coordination Academy, should it?”

Muham glanced at her: “I hope Qiao Sang can stay at our school, no matter which academy.”

The deans’ expressions varied, deep in thought.

The dean of the Architecture Academy, seeing that no one was speaking, coughed and said, “I watched Qiao Sang’s interview, and I remember her goal is to participate in the Interstellar Cup. For a student with such a goal, I don’t think she would go to other academies.”

The deans didn’t mind poaching, but for a prodigy like Qiao Sang, who had immense talent in Yu Beast, going to other academies would indeed be a bit of a waste.

President Muham calmly stated his opinion:

“As long as Qiao Sang is given time, without any accidents, with her talent, participating in the Interstellar Cup is a certainty. She is a promising candidate for the Interstellar Cup. No matter which academy she enters, I will have her join the Yu Class.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the deans immediately stirred.

The Yu Class, founded independently by President Muham 300 years ago, aimed to cultivate world-class Yu Beast geniuses.

In other words, the people in the “Yu Class” were geniuses among geniuses, prodigies among prodigies. Entering the Yu Class was equivalent to having one foot in the circle of big shots.

However, due to the extremely high threshold, only over 700 students have been admitted since its establishment.

Although small in number, many of them were qualified to participate in the Interstellar Cup preliminaries, and even some entered the later stages of the competition, becoming famous worldwide.

The dean of the Coordination Academy showed a look of surprise:

“I remember that the Yu Class only selects students who have at least passed the B-Rank or A-Rank Professional Beastmaster assessment.”

Muham said indifferently:

“I said, she is a promising candidate for the Interstellar Cup.”

“So, even if she enters the Yu Class, she will still be registered under the academy she is enrolled in?” The dean of the Nurturing Institute’s eyes flickered, confirming.

Muham nodded: “That’s right.”

The deans’ expressions varied, and they no longer exchanged glances.

Everyone knew the value of entering the Yu Class and the achievements that would follow.

With Qiao Sang’s talent, and then entering the Yu Class, with the resources available there, if nothing unexpected happened, participating in the Interstellar Cup preliminaries would be a sure thing.

If an academy produced a student who participated in the Interstellar Cup and achieved a ranking… The deans’ minds instantly became active.
