“Miss Huo, a pleasure to meet you.”
Seeing Huo Ling’s politeness and lack of arrogance, Shang Lingkong naturally wouldn’t be rude in return.
Huo Ling was a senior teacher at the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy.
Although she was not yet thirty, she was a true genius.
She was also a member of the Huo family from the Sacred City of the Federation, considered one of the family’s contemporary prodigies.
She herself had graduated from the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy and chose to stay on as a teacher after graduation.
Through years of hard work, she had gained her current powerful strength and status.
A Seventh Rank, Seventh Level Spirit Tamer under thirty, she definitely had a chance to reach the Ninth Rank in the future.
Compared to Huo Ling, the other three teachers from the top academies were clearly older, almost all in their thirties.
Originally, it should have been the usual representative teacher from the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy coming this time.
However, this situation was special. Huo Ling had heard that a genius had appeared in the Huo family of Skyshine City.
Since they were technically her family, it would be easier for her to recruit them.
Moreover, Huo Ling was curious to see if this person was truly a genius.
Growing up in the Sacred City, Huo Ling had very high standards for geniuses.
This time, she had come specifically for the Huo family member in Skyshine City.
Shang Lingkong naturally knew who Huo Ling was talking about.
The Huo family in Skyshine City had produced a genius girl, and the head of the Huo family, Huo Qingshan, had made no effort to hide it.
This was a great opportunity to elevate the Huo family’s reputation.
So, there was no way Huo Qingshan would keep it a secret.
“Huo Xian’er is indeed a genius, one of the top young talents in all of Skyshine City.”
“At our Skyshine High School, her strength is also among the best.”
Shang Lingkong knew a bit about Huo Xian’er.
However, he wasn’t particularly fond of family disciples.
Because even if they were nurtured, they would prioritize repaying their family over the Federation.
Therefore, Shang Lingkong valued commoner disciples more than family ones.
Most commoner disciples would be recruited by the Federation, join the army, and defend the cities.
Although these families were also within the cities, their primary concern was their family’s survival, not the city’s safety.
Hearing Shang Lingkong speak so highly, Huo Ling was naturally delighted.
She didn’t want to come all this way for nothing.
As for whether Huo Xian’er would join the Black Tortoise Spirit Tamer Academy, there was no doubt.
With her there, Huo Xian’er couldn’t escape.
Hearing Huo Ling’s confidence, the other three could only smile wryly.
There was nothing they could do; they didn’t have the same connections.
A good talent was slipping away right before their eyes, and they were powerless.
However, Skyshine City didn’t only have Huo Xian’er; there would always be other talents.
Every year, they would recruit one or two good students here.
Although most of these good students were family disciples.
It couldn’t be helped; family disciples had better resources.
They didn’t have to wait for the Federation to distribute spiritual pet eggs; their families provided them directly.
From the starting point, family disciples were clearly ahead.
Starting early, as long as they weren’t wastrels and worked hard, they had a chance to enter top Spirit Tamer academies.
Even if their strength was lacking, they could at least enter advanced Spirit Tamer academies.
For common students, entering top Spirit Tamer academies was extremely difficult.
Of course, it wasn’t impossible. Some lucky ones would get powerful spiritual pets.
With a lot of effort, they had a chance to enter top Spirit Tamer academies.
After graduating, these students usually chose one of three paths: staying at the academy, joining a family, or joining the army.
“Alright, since everyone is here, let’s set off for the assessment site.”
With that, Shang Lingkong waved his hand.
The guards behind him started moving, leading the way.
Shang Lingkong and the representatives from the four top Spirit Tamer academies followed, while the other academies lined up behind them according to their rank.
Soon, the large group boarded the train arranged by Shang Lingkong.
The train slowly started moving towards Skyshine High School.
…
Meanwhile, Ye Ling had gotten up early, washed up, and headed straight to school.
After leveling up over this period, Ye Ling’s physical fitness had greatly improved.
Running like this, even for half an hour, wouldn’t tire him out.
Soon, Ye Ling returned to the school he hadn’t seen in a few days.
