Chapter 33: Neither a Fool nor a Problematic Teenager

Li Da started to be impressed with Ling Hanxing.

Although the vocational university wasn’t a regular university, it still wasn’t easy for him to be a deputy director.

What’s more, Lingzhou Vocational University was relatively famous. Whenever one asked for the best university to learn to be an excavator or chef, many people would subconsciously recall this university.

“Ahem, Hanxing, did you return to Nancheng to recruit students?” Li Da probed.

When Ling Hanxing heard his question, he felt a chill run down his spine and his eyes became wary.

A moment later, he cautiously replied: “Yes, the principal gave me an enrollment assignment; otherwise, I could just find a place to nestle for a holiday.”

Li Da nodded and asked with concern: “How is it? How many students did you recruit?”

Ling Hanxing lifted his head to take a sip of wine, and coughed lightly twice.

“Cough, our school recruits elites, so how can it be that easy? Many people came to consult me, but in the end I politely refused because they didn’t meet our school’s requirements.”

Li Da frowned and decided not to feign civility.

“Hanxing, I know a teenager who wants to go to Lingzhou City, do you have a way?”

“Uh, stowaway? I don’t even have my ID. It’s still a problem to go back by myself, and as a teacher I can’t do anything illegal.”

Ling Hanxing flipped his pockets, his expression was very patronizing.

“Then can you recruit him into your school? He is just 18 years old this year.” Li Da asked again.

Ling Hanxing was slightly stunned. Then, his face became serious.

“Big Brother Li, although we are close acquaintances, the school has its rules…

“Does this teenager have 10 points of combat power?”

“He has killed two Scythe Weasels alone. His combat power is at least 30!”

Pfft!

Hearing this, Ling Hanxing spewed out the wine in his mouth.

A combat power of at least 30!

And killed two Scythe Weasels alone!

Such a person wants to come to our school?

Damn, there must be something wrong! What is this fat man thinking about?

“Big Brother Li, is he… a fool? Uh, I don’t mean that it was a stupid idea for him to choose our school, but…”

Ling Hanxing pointed to his own head.

“Is there something wrong with his IQ that other universities refused him? Big Brother Li, let me tell you, our school doesn’t accept stupid people.”

Li Da became speechless.

This guy just mentioned that the requirements are very high, so what did this statement even mean? His university accepts anyone who isn’t a fool?

“How can he be a fool? That kid is smart, bold, resolute, polite, and grateful to others.”

Ling Hanxing’s eyes became increasingly alert. A moment later, it dawned on him!

“Big Brother Li, did he accidentally make some big mistake and leave a bad record like a problematic teenager?”

Li Da hurriedly waved his hand.

“None of them. It is mainly because he had some health problems some years ago and was home-schooled. He also didn’t take the college entrance examination this year, so he can’t go to college through normal channels.”

“Cr*p, physical problems? What if one day he suddenly falls ill and dies in our school? I can not afford this responsibility!”

Ling Hanxing shook his head without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing this, Li Da said in a serious tone.

“He can fight and kill Scythe Weasels; what can be wrong with his body? What’s more, he has lost all his family, and if something really goes wrong, no one will look for you guys to be accountable.

“All in all, he’s a poor kid, but he is excellent. I have seen many young people over the years. Putting aside the combat power and in terms of nature, he is definitely one of the best. If your school doesn’t recruit him, next year, he will take the college entrance examination, and definitely be admitted to a prestigious school. By then, you will regret it. Do you believe it?”

Seeing Li Da’s solemn face, Ling Hanxing hesitated.

Without taking the college entrance exam, one could only get special admission to enter a university.

Their school had a special admission quota, but it wasn’t something he could decide.

At this thought, Ling Hanxing took out his cell phone from his pocket.

“Big Brother Li, wait, I’ll make a phone call and ask the principal.”

Saying that, he dialed a number.

“Hey, principal, I met a student with a combat power of at least 30. An acquaintance of mine said he was impressive, do you think he can be specially recruited?”

…

“… He’s not a fool. Yes, not a fool! Why would I recruit a fool to our school?”

…

“Uh, he’s not a problematic teenager either. He has no criminal record, and was introduced to me by my former neighbor, Fatty.”

“Is Fatty reliable? Fatty is quite reliable, just that he’s greedy with money and lustful, and also eats a lot but never works. Despite that, he is still a trustworthy man.”

“Student? I haven’t met him yet…”

Ling Hanxing responded and the growl of a middle-aged man suddenly became louder in the phone.

“Get lost! Call me again when you see him!”

Beep, beep, beep…

After the principal abruptly hung up the phone, Ling Hanxing muttered in a low voice, and raised his head to look at Li Da once again.

“Big Brother Li, I have to meet the kid first… Uh, why do you look a little off?”

Li Da gloomily glared at Ling Hanxing and coldly said: “I asked him to come here tomorrow morning for a trip. You can come over as well. By the way, remember to foot the bill for this wine.”

…

In the blink of an eye, it was the second morning.

He Mu came to the Red Mist Alliance as usual.

He ate a home-style meal last night, and right now, he was famished.

After arriving at the Red Mist Alliance, he didn’t rush to train himself, but went to the restaurant first.

If not for the fact that the family’s reserves were finished, he wouldn’t have bothered to enter the restaurant.

Remember, when he first became a Red Mist Fighter, he could eat a fish without getting hungry for the rest of the day.

And now he needed to eat four to five fish a day. A fish cost of about 2000 yuan, and a day of food cost nearly 10,000 yuan!

The average Red Mist Fighter simply couldn’t handle this level of consumption.

Afterward, he also inquired about the situation of other Red Mist Fighters, which he found that other Red Mist Fighters didn’t eat as much as he did.

For instance, those below 10 combat power could split a fish for two days.

Even the so-called experts with 30 to 40 combat power only are one and a half fishes a day.

He Mu vaguely speculated.

Nine times out of 10, it was because his combat power was growing too fast and his body was in a stage of rapid strengthening. Moreover, he would use up all his strength every day to cultivate, which was why he consumed so much food.

If he slowed down the rate of strength increase, perhaps he could eat less.

Of course, he didn’t want to do that if it wasn’t a last resort.

After finishing the meal, He Mu just stood up and prepared to leave the restaurant.

As he walked out of the restaurant, his cell phone rang.

When he took out the phone and saw that the caller was Uncle Li, he immediately pressed the answer button.

“Kid, make a trip over, I got to know a university teacher from Lingzhou last night. He wants to see you, and if you meet the requirements, he may be able to specially recruit you into the school.

“Don’t worry, I checked the information last night and basically determined his identity, there is no problem.”

Hearing this, He Mu’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately replied: “I-I… am in the Red Mist Alliance, I’ll come over now. Uncle Li, thank you!”

“Heh, hurry over. He’s already waiting here.”

“Okay!”

He Mu hung up his cell phone, quickly left the restaurant, and went straight to the Red Mist Bar.

He didn’t take long to arrive in front of the counter.

He initially thought of rushing in straight away, but the moment he opened the door curtain he realized that it was inappropriate.

So he stopped, took a deep breath, and made himself look as serious as possible.

Waiting for close to a minute to pass, He Mu gently opened the curtain and walked into the bar.

The cultured, serious-looking university teacher in his imagination didn’t appear. On the contrary, it was a long-haired man sitting by the counter.

The long-haired man seemed to hear the movement behind him and subconsciously turned around.

After seeing He Mu, his pupils shrank slightly. A look of surprise appeared on his face, and he blurted out: “It can’t be you, right?”
