Chapter 90: Russell, when were you number one in Jiang Province?

At the end of December, the first Jiangxi Province Unified Examination officially came to an end.

Russell's opponent in the final is no match for Hu Lai, who he met in the previous round.

So the audience joked that the semi-final match between Russell and Hu Lai was actually the real final, and the rest was just a formality.

Of course, Russell also took the game seriously and did not underestimate the opponent.

After the finals, Russell became the top high school student in Jiang Province.

After the unified examination, there will naturally be an award ceremony.

But the reward is just a medal.

"This is too stingy." On the podium, Russell complained silently in his heart with a fake smile on his face.

He glanced at the Ming Dynasty officials and association leaders standing on his left and right, respectively.

Russell did have a guess.

"Could it be that the court and the association are doing something dirty?"

It’s not Russell’s fault for thinking this way. After all, even though the association had deducted money before, at least there was still some reward.

But up to now, Russell has not received a penny from the Ming court.

Calculated in this way, the Ming Dynasty court could not even match the funding provided to him by the Qiling Society.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty court has always had a weak presence.

In an unstable place like Shanghai, people basically only know about the association and not the Ming Dynasty court.

Normally, public security is maintained by the association, unlike in Nandu where you can still see imperial detectives on the streets.

But these power struggles are still a bit far away from Russell now.

Besides, he is about to become Bai Yueming's disciple.

At that time, he will naturally be labeled according to which faction Bai Yueming belongs to, and he will not have the chance to choose.

After the photo session, Russell naturally had to be interviewed.

The host, who was wearing light makeup, held the microphone, looked at Luo Su with a smile and asked, "Hello, Luo, you have won the first place in the Jiangxi Province Unified Examination. Are you excited?"

"Fortunately, I feel nothing."

Hearing Russell's answer, the host's face froze, but her good professionalism allowed her to quickly cover it up and ask the next question: "It can be seen that our student Luo is a little shy. So, Mr. Luo, do you have any experience to share with everyone?"

After hearing this, Russell thought for a moment before asking in a deep voice, "Have you ever seen Shanghai at four in the morning?"

"?"

The host looked confused, not knowing what Russell said had to do with his question.

Seeing that the host didn't understand what he meant, Russell explained: "What I mean is that everyone should keep the good habit of going to bed early and getting up early, and practice more, and everyone can reach my level."

As Russell explained, the host's bewildered face gradually turned into affirmation: "I can tell that these are all from the bottom of Luo's heart. So, is there anything else that Luo wants to say to me?"

"I'm going to a higher education institution to realize my talent."

"??"

Seeing that the host couldn't understand the joke he made, Russell couldn't help feeling a little lonely.

Fortunately, he quickly adjusted his mood.

The interview is over.

Just as Russell was about to return to the hotel, he was surrounded by delegations from various universities.

"Student Luo, you should still have some impression of me. We have been in touch before." The representative of Beijing University said with a smile, "The president has already known your performance. We at Beijing University are willing to give you a scholarship of 3 million per year, and you will be given priority in various project practice activities."

Just as Russell was about to refuse, his right hand was grabbed by a Mediterranean man.

"Hello, Mr. Luo. I am the president of Ludao University." Hai Di introduced himself with a smile on his face. "Our Ludao University is also a famous institution of higher learning."

"As long as you are willing to come, Mr. Luo, I can approve five million per year for you now."

"And I heard you have a card with some solar attributes, right?"

"I can introduce you to our school's Grand Secretary Lie Xu."

Lie Xu is the diamond-level card maker from Ludao University who is proficient in sun-attribute cards.

The representative from Kyoto University nearby turned pale when he heard the conditions of Sagi University, knowing that he no longer had the ability to compete.

After all, these were the conditions that Kyoto University approved for him.

The representative of Nanjing University stepped forward, slightly forced the hands of the two people apart, and said with a fake smile: "I'm sorry, everyone, Russell has chosen our Nanjing University."

Then, without paying attention to the reactions of the other representatives present, he turned around and said, "Russell, the school has already responded, six million a year, plus an annual welfare secret realm."

"You can choose any level of secret realm near Nandu."

Hearing this, Russell's heart was shaken.

Six million a year is nothing.

Well, that’s a lot for a normal bronze-level card maker.

But the main thing is the welfare secret realm where you can choose your level once a year, even if the scope is limited to the surrounding areas of Nandu.

Moreover, after the Jiang Province Unified Examination, Russell felt that he was not far from the silver level.

This year, he could have waited until he broke through to the silver level before choosing to enter a silver-level welfare secret realm.

Even next year, when he breaks through to the gold level, he can choose the gold level welfare secret realm.

You have to know that the further you go in the future, the smaller the role of money will be, and the materials from now on can basically only be obtained by going into secret realms yourself.

This condition of Nanjing University undoubtedly accelerated his early accumulation of resources.

However, high-level secret realms, such as emerald diamond-level secret realms, are still rare inland. One has to go to the coastal areas or the northwest border where there are large numbers of monsters to enter.

Just as Russell was about to agree, the representative of Aurora University beside him suddenly showed a suspicious look on his face and said, "Are you lying to Mr. Luo?"

"Can your Nankai University offer such conditions?"

The reason why he spoke was naturally because Russell was from Shanghai, and Aurora University was also in Shanghai.

Now Russell was about to be kidnapped in front of him, so of course he was a little anxious.

But he doesn't know the details, but Russell does.

Russell understood that the reason why the Southern Congress offered such high conditions was naturally partly due to Bai Yueming's relationship.

Upon hearing this, the representative from NCU could not help but say unhappily, “What’s so deceptive about this?”

"Let's not talk about the contract first. Besides, Russell is going to become Master Bai's disciple soon. If he doesn't come to our Nan Da, will he go to your place?"

Hearing this, everyone present was petrified.

After a long while, someone trembled and asked, "Master Bai? Is that the Master Bai I was thinking of?"

The representative from Nanjing University nodded to confirm the other party's guess.

Just when everyone thought that Russell would definitely choose Nanjing University, the Jilin University representative who had never spoken before suddenly said, "Student Luo, our school's Master Fang will be here soon."

"Do you want to think about it again?"

"We can discuss the specific conditions after Master Fang arrives."

The representatives present were stunned at first, but soon realized who the Jilin University representative was talking about.

Master card maker, Duke of Wei, [God of Fighting] Fang Wenlong.
