Beast Tamer: Super Lucky Starting Contract
Chapter 121 Gusheng University
The resources purchased at a high price had been prepared, and Mo Xu had also done some homework in advance, but he was unable to start training as he had wished the next day as his plans were interrupted by several consecutive events.
The first thing to do was naturally to return the skill scroll as agreed. After Mo Xu returned the scroll, he planned to go straight to the training room, but he received a call from Jia Mao.
On the phone, Jia Mao sighed and said, "This morning, Zhao Ke's father will go to Jiangming City to take Zhao Ke's ashes away. If you are free, please go and send them off on behalf of us."
Mo Xu was a little surprised: "It's been two days since Zhao Ke's accident, why is it only today..."
Jia Mao's tone was somewhat hesitant, and he sighed and said, "It's hard to put it into words."
Hearing Jia Mao say no more, Mo Xu understood that it was most likely that the issue of determining the responsibility for Zhao Ke's death had been debated for a few days, and it was possible that the two factions were using this matter to make a big fuss politically.
A girl's life was put on the table and used as a bargaining chip to gain benefits, but no one cared that the ashes of a young girl could not rest in peace in a foreign land.
Mo Xu developed a certain disgust towards those games hidden in the dark, and then agreed to the matter: "I'll go and send them off, where is the location?"
"It should be handed over at the association center."
Mo Xu finally decided to take a look. The other prospective beast masters had all gone back, and he was the only one from Jiangming City. Zhao Ke and the others were considered comrades who had entered the secret realm together, so it was reasonable for them to go on this trip.
When they arrived at the center, Mo Xu directly explained his purpose to Cha Chuan.
Cha Chuan said that this was indeed the case and took him to a small room downstairs. In the middle of the room was a large table with a black-and-white photo of Zhao Ke in the middle. Under the photo was a half-foot-long brown wooden box and next to it were many wreaths.
The association set aside a small mourning hall for Zhao Ke in the center, which shows that they attach great importance to him. However, it is unknown whether this emphasis is a respect for life itself, or whether it is to expose the matter to the public to deter the camp that made the mistake.
Or, if Zhao Ke was not the daughter of an official in Beijing, or a brilliant new talent, would this have happened? Perhaps it is even more unknown.
Mo Xu glanced at his clothes. Fortunately, his pants were black, so he borrowed a black suit jacket from the president, buttoned it up, and then entered the mourning hall.
Not long after, people started arriving one after another. However, because Zhao Ke was from the capital and the matter was kept low-key, not many people came. They included some leaders of the association, the two masters Li Heyu and Yuan Xian, and the military's political commissar Ming who came to see them off.
Apart from these big shots, there were only Mo Xu and Yu Jingyan. Mo Xu thought this person had gone home, but he didn't expect him to still stay in Jiangming City.
After almost everyone had arrived, the last person to come was a middle-aged man in a black suit with gray hair. He did not look like a high-ranking official at all. He looked very sad and was supported by two staff members to the front of the mourning hall. He could not help but burst into tears.
He was a high-ranking official, but he could not protect his daughter. Having lost his only daughter in middle age, he no longer had the aura of a high-ranking official, nor did he have any scheming and scheming. He was just a father who had lost his daughter.
After he calmed down a little, Chachuan solemnly handed the urn to the middle-aged official on behalf of the association.
"Minister Zhao, the cause and effect of this matter has been investigated. Someone took the lead and colluded with an outsider named Song Xiaowei, who was at the Venerable level. Elder Fu has already taught him a lesson. Now Elder Yan has recovered. The association will definitely handle this matter properly and give justice to my beloved daughter."
Minister Zhao took the urn tremblingly, stroked it, and couldn't hold back his tears, which dripped onto it. After a long while, he finally squeezed out a sentence: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, President Cha."
Cha Chuan shook hands with Minister Zhao politely and said, "Alas, I am sorry."
Minister Zhao nodded, and slowly walked out of the mourning hall with the help of the staff. Everyone who saw him was moved by the love of parents in the world.
Mo Xu was close, and when Minister Zhao passed by, he heard him whisper, "Ke'er, Daddy is useless. He's late. I'll take you home now."
Mo Xu keenly noticed that in President Cha's words just now, he said that the person named Song Xiaowei who attacked was just "taught a lesson", if he was dead, it should be described as "executed" or "punished".
It seems that the venerable did not die in the end. As for the proper handling of the matter later, it sounded more like official clichés.
Maybe it was the so-called compromise between Mr. Yan and Mr. Fu, or maybe it was the more benefits they gained by exchanging the life of that venerable. Mo Xu didn't know, and no one would tell him.
If someone came to him and said something like "It's only natural that a quasi-beastmaster can exchange for the life of a Venerable", it would not be surprising, because the "value" of a Venerable must be higher.
Mo Xu also became more aware that only the strong can decide their own destiny. Fairness and justice still exist, but they will be distorted to a certain extent by fists, especially in this world full of extraordinary people. The upper and lower limits of people have become greater, and the consequence of not being strong enough can only be to go with the flow.
Even if he is a genius now and is praised by many people for his promising future, if it was him who died instead of Zhao Ke, the result would not change at all.
He had no father or mother, and no one to even cry for him.
"It's not enough. I have to work hard to climb higher and not slack off. When I am strong enough, I will practice my values." Mo Xu said to himself.
Just as Mo Xu was about to leave for the training room after bidding farewell to Zhao Ke's ashes, Yu Jingyan approached him: "Mo Xu, is it convenient for you to chat?"
Mo Xu suddenly remembered that Yu Jingyan had sent him a text message inviting him to the Western Military Region. He was about to decline, but then he changed his mind and said, "Okay."
Yu Jingyan took Mo Xu to find a teahouse to sit down. It was the one that Cha Ling had invited them to before. The exquisite tea had a lingering fragrance and the atmosphere was peaceful, which was very suitable for discussing things.
Xiuxiu and Abing were both released, and Yu Jingyan ordered some very expensive tea for them. Even a picky animal like Abing took a few sips with his little green hands.
The drinks for monsters are expensive, and the food for humans is not cheap either. Every snack is very particular. Although they look ordinary, the ingredients are specially supplied, or even extraordinary.
Such a huge expenditure was naturally to express sincerity and to show his great respect for Mo Xu.
Yu Jingyan was incredulous when she saw the phantom ghost, but she was very polite and didn't ask any more questions. After they met and ate a few bites, she got straight to the point: "We have shown great sincerity in inviting you to Gusheng University. I hope you can take a look before making a decision."
She spoke quickly, then took out a paper document and handed it over.
Mo Xu took it and saw that it was actually a list of resources, which was his reward for joining Gusheng University.
"Shengcheng Association, commissioned by the Western Military Region, invites Mo Xu to study at Gusheng University. The following are the resources and rewards we have invested in recognition of your strength. If you are successfully admitted, this agreement is legally binding and guaranteed by the association. The following is a list:
1. All tuition and miscellaneous fees for four years are exempted, and a full scholarship of RMB plus 2000 contribution points is obtained.
2. The monthly meal allowance for four years is 5000 yuan, and the meal allowance for the contracted monster is 100 contribution points*X, where X is the level, with the extraordinary level being 1, the spiritual level being 2, and so on.
3. If the main monster is at the spiritual level, three intermediate warehouse exchange qualifications will be provided every month, and advanced warehouse exchange qualifications will be provided once every six months; if the main monster is at the heroic level, one advanced warehouse exchange qualification will be provided every month, and one epic material will be provided every six months; if the main monster is at the king level, one epic material will be provided every two months.
4. If you win honors in any domestic or international competitions on behalf of the Western Military Region, the Western Military Region will provide equivalent competition rewards.
Signed by: ______”
After reading the list, Mo Xu was a little shocked. Gusheng University, or the Western Military Region, had made a big investment to recruit him. It was obvious that they were very optimistic about him.
Although other universities would also value Mo Xu's achievements, I'm afraid that no university in the country could offer such generous conditions.
The Heroic Spirit level alone can provide epic materials, which means a huge investment. And the rewards for the Spiritual Level are also beyond the standard of ordinary students. All in all, if the investment in him is converted into money, it is probably a huge amount of tens of millions.
If he had reached the king level earlier and won more places in major competitions, the number would probably be even more terrifying.
Mo Xu was tempted, but his expression remained calm. He did not agree immediately, but asked, "Does President Cha know about this list?"
Yu Jingyan understood and replied, "I stayed in Jiangming City these few days. I met with President Cha several times on behalf of my father and talked about some things, including this. President Cha must know about it."
Mo Xu nodded. This was quite insightful.
The Western Military Region should have been quite ambiguous in its original party struggle stance. After all, it was a marginal area, and the top leaders had little influence, so it was normal for them to choose to protect themselves. Now that the storm has subsided, they should take sides. Moreover, they chose the faction of Fu Lao and Yan Lao.
This list is not only an attempt to win over Mo Xu, but also, to some extent, a manifestation of taking sides.
Mo Xu is from Chachuan and also a contributor to the Qilin Secret Realm. The significance of bringing him here and training him with all our strength is self-evident.
"Since the old leader knows about this, he may have the intention of promoting it. However, he didn't tell me in advance. He must be afraid of influencing me and let me make my own choice." Mo Xu understood Cha Chuan's good intentions after thinking about it.
Yu Jingyan knew that Mo Xu's attitude had softened, so he tried to please him again and added: "I heard from Master Cha that you joined the Adventurer's Association. There are many unexplored places in our west. There were many places of interest before the resurgence, and there are many strange places in the wild after the resurgence. Fifty percent of the tombs in the country's secret realms are in our west. Among the ten "forbidden places" in the no-man's land, three are in the west."
Mo Xu put the list on the table: "I agree to study at Gusheng University. Take a pen and sign it."
