Being able to have coffee with the dean of one of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges was something Fang Chong and his peers couldn’t even dream of before.
To ordinary people, having coffee with the dean of one of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges was a glory.
Now, it had become a reality.
Whether it was Geng Qianxing or Fang Chong, Li Wanran, or Lv Zi, they all knew clearly. Dean Qin was willing to have coffee with them here surely because of their performance.
Three students from one school achieved an S-level rating in the first two rounds of assessment, something that had never occurred since the establishment of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges.
Not to mention three students, even for one student to achieve an S-level rating in the first two rounds was very rare.
"Everyone, please relax, let’s just chat casually." Seeing the three students somewhat constrained, Dean Qin smiled and spoke again.
Seemingly sensing Dean Qin’s approachability, Li Wanran somewhat relaxed, and with a tone of respect said,
"Dean Qin, I never imagined I could have coffee with you, Martial Vein Mountain is a place I dreamed of visiting."
Geng Qianxing inwardly sighed, thinking the student still lacked experience. Wasn’t it obvious why they were being invited for coffee? It was clearly because he wanted them to go to Martial Vein Mountain.
Instead, they spilled all their confidence before anything was even said.
This was the consequence of the disparity in their status.
In fact, Geng Qianxing also knew that it was against the rules for Dean Qin, as dean of one of the Ten Great Colleges, to meet them here before the assessment ended.
However, no one really cared about this rule because which dean, having nothing better to do, would come forward to meet assessment candidates?
Did the dean of one of the Ten Great Colleges have to worry about a lack of talents? That was out of the question, the Blue Star Ten Ten Colleges never lacked talents.
"Then I warmly welcome you. As long as you are willing, I can still be somewhat decisive. You don’t even have to take the exam later, you can enter my Martial Vein Mountain, and into the genius class," said Dean Qin smilingly.
During the enrollment examination of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges, each college admitted fifty new students. However, these fifty students were split into three classes.
Even though all the admitted were geniuses, there still was one genius class and two ordinary classes.
"Ah…" Li Wanran was dizzy from the huge "cake" thrown at her.
Was this a dream?
She immediately looked at Geng Qianxing, Mr. Geng was right here, and with just a word from Mr. Geng, she would become a student of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges.
This was practically a guaranteed admission.
Geng Qianxing smiled, showing no indication of his stance.
Suddenly, Li Wanran came out of her tremendous joy.
Did she need to accept this massive "cake" now? She was currently ranked among the top three after two assessments.
The third and fourth rounds were their strengths; having cultivated the "Thousand Gene Tactics" and the basic long fist, she had absolute confidence in her own strength.
Given this, even entering True Universe Academy was within her reach, why rush into entering the eighth-ranked Martial Vein Mountain?
Besides, entering Martial Vein Mountain without participating in the remaining two assessments would provoke gossip.
If she couldn’t manage to qualify, having such an opportunity was luck, and she shouldn’t be bothered by other people’s gossips.
In her own heart, others might even envy her fortune.
If she could qualify, then entering one of the Ten Great Colleges in this way was not what Li Wanran wanted.
"It’s the same for the two of you," Dean Qin’s gaze then fell on Fang Chong and Lv Zi.
Fang Chong quickly said, "I’ll listen to Mr. Geng."
Lv Zi nodded, "Yes, me too."
Dean Qin turned her attention to Geng Qianxing, who said earnestly,
"Dean Qin coming here personally to discuss this shows the high regard for our students, and on behalf of Yujiang University and a few students, I thank Dean Qin.
In my heart, I do hope that they can all enter one of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges. The Martial Vein Mountain suits their future plans well since it’s an academy from Hua Xia.
However, first, this needs their parents’ consent, and second, I still hope they can complete their assessments, as it would also serve as a closure for their future."
Dean Qin stood up, took out a business card, and handed it to Geng Qianxing, "Alright, you can call me anytime; the doors of Martial Vein Mountain are always open for you."
After speaking, Dean Qin turned and left.
As a dean of one of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges, coming here personally to say these things had already lowered her status significantly. Saying anything more would be truly undignified.

After Dean Qin left, Li Wanran asked, "Mr. Geng, do you think we can perform even better?"
Geng Qianxing shook his head, "It’s not for that reason, I just feel that Martial Vein Mountain isn’t suitable for you."
```
"Why?" This time, the question was posed by Fang Chong.
If it wasn’t for his two S-tier scores in the previous rounds, entering Martial Vein Mountain would have felt like a dream to him.
"I’ve heard some things," Hesitating, Geng Qianxing still spoke, "that Dean Qin has some personal grudges against Mr. Ding."
There was another phrase he left unsaid, which was that Qin Qiang was a core member of the Genetic Alliance.
Frankly speaking, Geng Qianxing did not have a favorable view of the Genetic Alliance.
The Genetic Alliance was too profit-oriented, though their slogans sounded very impressive, about "for the future of Earth" and "for the survival of mankind."
In fact, as a teacher in the field of genetics, Geng Qianxing had heard more than a few nonsensical things related to the Genetic Alliance.
"Ah, then I will definitely not join Martial Vein Mountain," hearing Geng Qianxing’s words, Fang Chong was the first to stand up and speak.
"Right, if it were me, I wouldn’t join Martial Vein Mountain either," another unexpected voice chimed in, startling the four of them.
It was fine for them to discuss internal matters among themselves, but such words, once overheard, could lead to trouble.
Before Geng Qianxing could locate who the voice belonged to, a long-haired young man came over and sat down in the seat Dean Qin had occupied moments ago.
"Who are you?" Geng Qianxing asked, looking puzzledly at the unfamiliar man.
The man just smiled, "I just came to remind Mr. Geng of a few things before I leave."
Before Geng Qianxing could reply, the man continued, "Dean Qin from Martial Vein Mountain was here just now, right?"
Geng Qianxing did not answer, he simply had no idea who this person was.
The man didn’t seem to expect a reply from Geng Qianxing and continued, "If I’m not mistaken, she was here to persuade you all to join Martial Vein Mountain."
Geng Qianxing remained expressionless, but Li Wanran and others could not help but nod.
The man chuckled, "I’m advising you, it’s best that you did not agree. If you did agree, be sure not to actually forfeit the final two rounds, and certainly don’t go into Martial Vein Mountain."
"Why?" Li Wanran, who still had a favorable impression of Martial Vein Mountain as it was one of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges, locally based in Hua Xia, and ranked even higher than Da Han Yi Academy, asked.
The long-haired man chuckled again, "I’ll tell you a fact: this woman is the most cunning, willing to abandon anything for her own benefit, including moral integrity."
Although Geng Qianxing didn’t like Qin Qiang much, he did not enjoy speaking ill of others behind their backs.
The long-haired man clearly had no such scruples, "If you agree to join Martial Vein Mountain, even going so far as to give up the final two rounds of exams, let me tell you, you will be miserable.
I can assure you, as soon as you give up the final two rounds, you won’t possibly make it into Martial Vein Mountain; that woman would overturn her previous promises without hesitation."
"Why would she want to..." Li Wanran began to ask, puzzled, but then hesitated, realizing she was questioning the dean of one of the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges and swallowed her words.
"Why make promises to you, right? Because she wants to uncover your teacher’s secrets.
At the recent assessment conference, this woman even claimed it was Ding Huan who killed two members of the Genetic Alliance. Then she suggested a warrant for Ding Huan.
Is Ding Huan your teacher? Have you understood what I’m saying?
Alright, I’ve said enough, I must be off now," the long-haired man said, then turned and left.
"Mr. Geng," Fang Chong’s gaze returned to Geng Qianxing.
Geng Qianxing nodded, "Although I don’t know if his words are correct, the proposition to issue a warrant for Mr. Ding indeed came from her. She was the one who said Ding Huan killed two members of the Genetic Alliance."
It was because Geng Qianxing had already obtained some information that made him reluctant to allow Ding Huan’s students to enter Martial Vein Mountain.
"That despicable woman, she doesn’t look like anything good," Fang Chong said indignantly.
Lv Zi and Li Wanran remained silent, they did not find it difficult to decide against joining Martial Vein Mountain.
With their scores, they could easily get into a better academy.
Geng Qianxing glared at Fang Chong,
"Fang Chong, do not curse others lightly. In the next two assessments, give it your all. As long as you perform well, nothing will intimidate you.
And let me remind you once more, wherever you go in the future, whatever heights you reach, always remember who nurtured you.
Being grateful is the most important attribute in a person; those who are ungrateful are always looked down upon."
Fang Chong spoke up loudly, "What I am today is all thanks to Mr. Ding’s nurturing, I..."
"Keep your voice down," Li Wanran cautioned Fang Chong.
This place wasn’t suitable for loud voices, in case they were overheard.
She felt that Fang Chong was overreacting a bit. Ding Huan was their mentor, they were supposed to respect him. Just like all the other teachers who had taught her throughout her life, she should respect them in the same way.
But Fang Chong was taking it beyond just respect, making it seem more like the ancient teacher-disciple relationship.
"What’s there to be quiet about? Without Mr. Ding, I’d be nothing," Fang Chong huffed, though his voice did inadvertently lower a lot.
