The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast

Chapter 612 470: Come at Me Together_2

Before the words were even out, many freshmen already displayed a resigned expression of "as expected" — leadership speeches, no matter which world, are excruciatingly boring.

It seems that even giants cannot escape this inevitability.

But at that moment.

The tall elderly man on the stage suddenly paused in his speech.

The gentle smile at the corner of his mouth suddenly changed, and a hint of impatience appeared in his golden eyes.

His smile grew more unrestrained, even revealing his neat and white teeth: "…Did you think I would say that?"

In an instant, all the freshmen in their seats widened their eyes slightly.

"That would be too much of a waste of time, and I don't like it."

"Just as I temporarily changed the time of the opening ceremony — rather than dragging it into the evening, it's better to finish early, leaving four extra hours to do whatever you wish."

"So let's get straight to the point and dive into today's main topic."

Li Jiatu smiled and looked down at these geniuses with inexplicable gazes: "I know what you all came to Longteng University from various parts of the Nine Provinces for."

"The best conditions, top mentors and training, the strongest peers and rivals, the brightest and most promising future."

"That's generally it, right?"

"Well, what I'm going to say now is also very simple."

Li Jiatu's tone shifted, and his gaze, sharp as a sword, accurately landed on Lin Guang in the audience.

"Lin Guang."

Lin Guang, who had at some point turned his eyes a dark golden color, had already met the gaze of his golden eyes.

The old man smiled: "First, on behalf of Longteng University, I once again welcome your arrival."

"In light of your stunning performance in the state competition, the director of education True Master Jing Ning has offered you extremely favorable terms."

"And as the third president of Longteng University, I promise publicly that the treatment you will receive in the coming years will be genuine and without any deductions."

Before everyone could react, he had already started speaking for himself.

"Top-grade secret realms, including the extremely rare Spiritual Element Upgrade Secret Realm, which allows priority use to enhance the level of a Spirit Master's body."

The old man's words spread clearly and unmistakably throughout the hall: "Beyond the inherent limit of the Dao Mark inheritance ability, the school will additionally work on your behalf and for all partners to engrave an additional Dao Mark."

"Open up special secret realms like the [Holy Beast Blessing], comprehensively enhancing your partners' vitality, Ether Affinity, and upgrade speed."

"For spiritual materials below Tier Six and non-Golden Grade, as long as there is a genuine need, the academy will make every effort to allocate them."

"A substantial amount of school points, sufficient to directly exchange for a Seven-Star Divine Object, with ultra-low-interest resource loan limits."

"All Seven-Star and below inheritance and Spirit Pattern knowledge within the academy is open to you, and you may even be exceptionally allowed to choose one Eight-Star core inheritance."

"Including mentors like me, you may choose freely, and the school will organize top experts to tailor the perfect cultivation plan for you."

"That's generally it, and there are some miscellaneous benefits that I won't elaborate on."

"By the way, there are no other restrictions."

In an instant —

Everyone's gaze changed.

Honestly, most people came to Longteng University to pay tuition or their families needed to sign an agreement with Longteng University for strategic cooperation, benefit sharing, and so on.

After all, Longteng University is not a charity.

If it gives without reservation without expecting returns, no matter how powerful the organization or resilient the background, such a model will inevitably become unsustainable one day.

However, at this moment, the conditions that Li Jiatu mentioned mean that all the most crucial resources, without reservation, will be fully allocated to Lin Guang as long as he completes his studies normally.

In broad terms, he is Longteng University's only ace and successor of this generation.

He might even… be the next president.

Because as a future successor, interests will be tied together; they will share honor and disgrace, so there's no need to demand additional compensation.

Longteng University will pour the resources of the entire school to help him soar.

This treatment has completely exceeded the scope of genius, as it is clearly being cultivated as a future "Celestial King," the pillar of Great Xia, without sparing any cost.

In an instant…

Among this group of over a hundred freshmen, many had already begun to feel restless, their eyes changing to show signs of discontent and hostility.

—Even in Great Xia, a strong nation at the pinnacle of Blue Star, resources are not infinite.

In fact, precisely because of the countless prodigies, the competition is more intense, as everyone wants a bigger share and refuses to give up what is rightfully theirs.

Although the size of Longteng University probably won't cut down existing student benefits to achieve its goals, it will unwittingly limit opportunities that "might" have otherwise belonged to them.

President Li Jiatu smiled, sweeping his gaze across all the freshmen present, as if the atmosphere wasn't tense enough, and his voice rose a few notches.

"Of course, these resources aren't given entirely for free."

"Since Longteng is situated in Coastal City, under the coverage of the system, it will always adhere to efficiency first, interests first."

"Do you have discontent in your heart? Envy? Desire?"

"That's entirely acceptable."

The president raised his hand slightly, his deep voice steady yet full of incitement.

"Then use your strength, in any permissible setting, to defeat him, to bring him shame!"

"As long as you can do it, the resources he enjoys will accordingly be transferred to you!"
