“Lin Zhen, we at Blue Sky Martial Arts Hall have decided to recruit you. We can sign a five-year contract, with a monthly salary based on that of a high-level student!”

“Come to our Shadow Dance Martial Arts Academy, our contract terms are definitely no worse than Blue Sky’s. If you have any requests for your family, we can also find jobs for your family members and enjoy the living security of Base City!”

“We at Dragon Slayer can do the same, and we can even provide you with housing – a two-story detached villa in West City District, free for you to live in!”

“Don’t argue, when we decide to recruit someone at our Changfeng martial arts school, you can also participate in the special training at headquarters, with a free War General tutor, and our Changfeng members can enjoy a 9.5% discount on the merchandise. This is something that those small martial arts schools don’t have.”

There was a noisy mess around, and these high-ranking Martial Artists were like market hawkers, doing their best to sell their martial arts schools.

It’s just that Lin Zhen’s performance was too outstanding.

His fist strength and speed had reached the standard of a Level 3 Warrior, and his nerve reaction had even reached the level of a Level 4 Warrior, which determines a Martial Artist’s survival ability. Without an accident, Lin Zhen has a great chance to become a War God level expert in the future.

You have to know that Lin Zhen is not yet 17 years old.

It’s really unexpected that there would be such a talent in No. 6 Middle School. It’s estimated that even in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Middle Schools, such people would rarely appear.

Initially, it was thought that Lin Zhen would be dazzled by such a generous contract, but Lin Zhen stood in the crowd with a faint smile on his face, not shaken at all.

He was still waiting, waiting for better conditions.

Ouyang Yu looked at Lin Zhen jealously, and saw Brother Li, who had just sworn to help him, busy making a phone call to the person in charge to prepare a generous contract for Lin Zhen, completely leaving him aside.

However, before Dragon Slayer’s representative finished the call, Gale Martial Arts Hall’s representative Zhao Liang came over with Meng Dong by his side, winking at Lin Zhen.

“Lin Zhen, we at Gale offer you a contract as a second-class student; we’ll sign a three-year contract because we believe that in three years, the current contracts won’t be suitable for you anymore. We promise to solve your family’s employment and living problems, and provide you with a three-story detached villa in West City District. There’s a strict security system there, so your family can live worry-free, and we’ll take care of any potential issues.”

Meng Dong also chimed in: “Lin Zhen, come to Gale, it’s Hua Xia’s No.1 Martial Arts Hall, and we can continue to be together, teaming up to kill monsters in the future, and pave a sky of our own as brothers.”

Lin Zhen took a gentle breath, “Then I’ll go to Gale.”

Hearing that Lin Zhen was going to Gale, and hearing the price Gale offered, the people from other martial arts schools finally shut up. Gale was indeed generous, giving away a three-story detached villa. Their martial arts schools didn’t have such financial resources.

Only Dragon Slayer’s representative had just finished the call, and immediately said, “Lin Zhen, we can also give you the same treatment! Even better than Gale’s.”

Lin Zhen looked at Dragon Slayer’s representative and shook his head, “I’ll still go to Gale.”

“Why? Shouldn’t Martial Artists pursue their own maximized interests?” The Dragon Slayer representative was somewhat puzzled.

Lin Zhen’s mouth curled up with a faint smile, and suddenly pointed at Ouyang Yu behind him, “Because I don’t like this kid. If you break his leg now, I’ll consider whether or not to join Dragon Slayer.”

The Dragon Slayer representative was stunned, opened his mouth, but didn’t say anything.

Of course, breaking Ouyang Yu’s leg was impossible, but it made him understand one thing. Lin Zhen didn’t come to Dragon Slayer, probably really because of Ouyang Yu’s relationship, which made him somewhat dissatisfied with Ouyang Yu.

If he had known this, he would have preferred to refuse to recruit Ouyang Yu even at the expense of losing face for Zhang Huai. Obviously, Lin Zhen’s potential far exceeded Ouyang Yu, and he would definitely get a substantial bonus, but now it’s all gone.

Ouyang Yu hurriedly said from behind, “Brother Li, don’t listen to this kid’s nonsense. He’s deliberately trying to provoke you!”

“I’m not an idiot, spare me the nonsense!” Brother Li coldly replied before turning and leaving the testing hall.

As the dust settled and everyone from the various martial arts halls dispersed, the graduation exam of the Number Six Martial Arts School came to an end.

Lin Zhen signed a contract with Gale Martial Arts Hall on the spot. The contract stipulated that Lin Zhen must obey Gale’s basic arrangements and prioritize Gale’s interests, and not to betray them.

At the same time, Lin Zhen would be entitled to the benefits provided by Gale. The contract for a second-class student was very generous. Meng Dong was only a third-class student, who could earn a salary of 200,000 per month, while second-class students earned 500,000 per month.

Gale also promised to take care of Lin Zhen’s parents by giving them a living allowance of 5,000 yuan per month from Base City. Both elderly would receive 10,000 yuan a month without having to do anything. Although it was not a huge amount of money, it was enough for them to maintain a basic standard of living, which meant a lot to Lin Zhen.

In addition, as the first second-class student to join the martial art hall, Lin Zhen could receive an extra month’s salary. On the spot, Zhao Liang of Gale gave Lin Zhen 500,000 yuan and the key to a three-story detached house in West City District. The property was even transferred on the spot.

Besides these, Lin Zhen could also access Gale Martial Arts Hall’s internal network as a second-class student, enjoying 95% discounts when shopping on the networks.

Don’t underestimate the 5% discount. For martial artists, spending on supplies can be their single biggest expense over time, and even a 0.5% discount can accumulate into a significant amount of wealth. As Lin Zhen rises in rank, the discounts he will enjoy will increase as well.

For example, a first-class student receives a 93% discount, while a formal martial artist receives a 90% discount, allowing them to save a significant amount of money.

There were also unique martial arts uniforms and satellite phones for each student. Lin Zhen and Meng Dong both received these items.

After completing these necessary procedures, Zhao Liang patted Lin Zhen and Meng Dong’s shoulders: “Come, Brother Zhao will treat you guys to a drink tonight to celebrate joining Gale Martial Arts Hall and introduce you to the world of martial artists.”

Martial artists’ networking skills were crucial as having many friends meant having people to count on for help in times of need. Zhao Liang clearly saw potential in both Lin Zhen and Meng Dong. As a seasoned martial artist, it was rare for him to befriend newcomers.

Lin Zhen initially intended to return home to surprise his parents, but couldn’t bring himself to refuse Zhao Liang’s kind offer. After considering it, he decided to let his family know beforehand.

Pulling out his phone, Lin Zhen called home.

His father quickly answered the call and inquired about his graduation exam results.

Lin Zhen hesitated for a moment, noticing many people still around him. He didn’t want to draw attention to his entering the Gale Martial Arts Hall, so he simply told his father over the phone, “Dad, rest assured, I did well on the exam. I’ll tell you more when I get home, but it might be late.”

With a laugh, Zhao Liang added, “What do you mean ‘late’? We’re going to drink through the night and have a blast.”

Lin Zhen had no choice but to continue, “If it’s too late, I won’t return tonight and will be back tomorrow morning instead.”

His father agreed and hung up the call.

After hanging up, Lin Liye told Li Qin, who was eagerly waiting by his side, “This kid might not have done too well on the exam. He always shares good news but keeps the bad to himself, you know that.”

Li Qin nodded, “If our boy didn’t do well on the exam, we can’t scold him when he gets back.”

“Don’t worry, I know our limits.”

The old couple couldn’t be sure if Lin Zhen had managed to enter any martial arts hall, leaving them feeling anxious.

After making the call, Lin Zhen and Meng Dong followed Zhao Liang and left Number Six Martial Arts School.

As Lin Zhen walked out of the school gate, he looked back one last time. With yet another high school life behind him, this time he had finally joined Hua Xia’s No.1 Martial Arts Hall and embarked on a completely different path in life.
