Chapter 363: To Stand Out From The Rest, One Needs To Have Stunning Moves.

Tian Du City.

The First Academy.

The on-campus job fair had officially begun!

Within a few seconds, the field was already filled with people.

All of the students from The First Academy came to watch the fun. Some students even bought popcorn and coke, squatting at the stand near the field.

“This does not seem nice, does it?”

A freshman seemed embarrassed. She felt that this was being disrespectful to the seniors… But she turned and saw that the teacher who taught them their major was eating popcorn and having fun.

“What did you say?”

Her classmate turned to look at her.

“I said to save some for me.”

She reached for the popcorn.

The classmate was speechless.

Of course.

They were not solely there to watch the fun.

They understood the purpose of the on-campus job fair—It was also for the students in The First Academy who had yet to graduate to learn and understand!

Every move!

Every stroke!

They could witness the powerful abilities of the graduating students!

They could understand the details of different strokes!

They could learn everything!

This was the purpose of the public on-campus job fair!

This was considered as the students’ greatest perk!

Obviously…

This was this dean’s doing.

There were some students who muddled through college without knowing what they were doing. What was the reason? It was because they did not have a purpose!

Well…

This was why the school would like for them to have something to work toward!

It did not matter which association or vocation!

“Not bad.”

The dean was pleased.

Since they were working with these associations, it was necessary to make the best use of them.

He wanted every student to have a goal to work toward. Even if it was a wrong choice, it was easy to change later. This was better than idling around duringfour years of university.

However…

There was still one problem— The Sword Card Master Association!

Because of what happened in the World of Darkness and Shadows, they had to treat the Sword Card Master Association well! After all, in a sense, the Sword Card Master Association was a big hero!

This was what they were worried about!

Some of the students might repay them blindly for the help given…

It would be a lot of trouble!

“How did the students react?”

The dean whispered.

“It’s still not too bad,” the assistant said. “These past two days, we indirectly gathered the opinions of some students. Most of them said that they will check out the Sword Card Master Association!”

That was right.

Check them out…

This was what they promised Zhao Yunshan, but as for whether they would join…

This was to be deliberated.

“Interesting.”

The dean’s lips curled into a smile.

These children had a good choice of words.

In that case, he felt more at ease.

Actually, he liked Lu Ming and Lu Yan. But his liking for them did not extend to the association that he had created or his act of tricking other children to join him…

It was better if he failed to recruit any students and he gave up in the end, focusing on his cultivation.

He pinned high hopes on Lu Ming.

“The Sword Card Master Association contacted us before,” the assistant suddenly said.

“Oh?”

The dean was curious.

“They hoped that we would be impartial in our recommendation of the associations,” the assistant said.

“On what grounds?”

The dean blurted out the reply instinctively and then came to his senses. Cough. “I mean, we welcome all the associations.”

The assistant was silent.

The dean should not have revealed his real thoughts.

Cough, cough.

The dean coughed.

What was a recommendation?

It meant that the school would recommend associations based on the students’ capability.

In a sense, the students themselves did not know these associations, and hence the teachers would choose the most appropriate association on their behalf!

Some of the students had total trust in their teachers. They would join the recommended association without any hesitation!

Therefore…

Who would get recommended every year was very important!

Well…

It was impossible to be impartial!

It was a small association without any seven-stars. Compared to associations with many big-shots and rich resources, the treatment would be totally different! Giving them the same recommendations would be unfair to the students!

However…

Essentially, the associations were able to play around at the on-campus job fair!

If one showcased powerful capabilities, and the students were willing to join them, they could not do anything about it.

“Get this brat to scram!”

The dean was unhappy. “Tell him, it is up to the associations to showcase their capabilities.”

“Yes,” the assistant acknowledged.

“Oh, right.” The dean suddenly spoke up. “Have you found the bull trainer that I told you to look for?”

“Yes. I have found ten professional Summoners who specialized in training of bulls. They are waiting at the school. What do you plan to do?”

“It’s alright. This is just to be prepared in advance”.

“Understood.”

…

Right then…

Students and teachers took their seats on the stand and the various associations entered the field.

This time round, every association came with their most powerful disciples as well as one of the powerful higher-ups to showcase the combat capabilities of the associations!

“Look, that is the Swordsman Association!”

“The disciple seems to be a graduate from three years ago. He is only steps to becoming a seven-star!”

“He is so handsome!”

“Look, the Elementalist Association is here as well,” the students exclaimed.

To all the students, this was more like a carnival where big shots gathered. Many legendary cultivators were present!

“They are very powerful!”

“Will it be the same when we graduate?”

“All of them seem very powerful.”

The students were amazed.

If not for the millennium anniversary, they would never get to see so many seven-stars!

Seven-star! Seven-star!

Six-star! Six-star!

It was the standard for every association to bring a seven-star along with several six-stars! This was the standard lineup for the on-campus job fair!

The students were dazzled and they could not help but exclaim and shout in wonder.

However…

This did not last long.

Very soon…

There was a sudden disruption to the powerful and grand lineups of the associations. A unique association appeared and it was filled with five-star and four-stars.

Shush!

There was dead silence in the field.

The students were dumbstruck as they looked at the association that had just entered.

Well…

There were a few four-stars and a five-star.

Oh, and a child.

“Did they come to the wrong place?”

This was the students’ first reaction.

But then they came to their senses. This was impossible. This was the on-campus job fair of The First Academy. There should not be any errors! But looking at the lineup of this association…

“Perhaps they are cheerleaders?”

A student was lost in their thoughts, staring at the adorable twelve-year-old young lady.

Shush!

His surrounding students looked toward him.

To hell with cheerleaders! Would any cheerleaders let a twelve-year-old young lady participate? Stop leering after the young lady!

“Sword Card Master association?!”

A student saw Zhao Yunshan and he finally remembered that there was this association.

He remembered that before the graduation season, there was an advertisement about the association.

“Is this the Sword Card Master Association?!”

The students were shocked.

That was right.

They knew of this association and heard that it was a new association!

It was understandable that a small association would not send a seven-star to the job fair. After all, not every seven-star in the association would be willing to go to the school to recruit members!

However…

Wasn’t it too much that there was no six-star?!

Looking at other associations, their least powerful cultivators were peak six-stars!

It was true.

After all, many graduating students of The First Academy had already reached six-star. If the association did not arrange for peak six-star to attend, would they not be embarrassed recruiting the students?!

Therefore, a peak six-star was everyone’s bottom line!

However…

The Sword Card Master Association was being very shameless. The most powerful disciple was Zhao Yunshan who was a five-star. Oh, he was not yet a peak five-star!

Shush!

The entire world fell silent.

The noisy field turned quiet.

Afterward…

Everyone stared in amazement as the Sword Card Master Association entered the field with other associations, walking to the display booth that took up the biggest space in the corner…

Oh.

It turned out that it was prepared for the Sword Card Master Association?!

Wow—

The crowd gasped.

That…

Was that for real or not?

If not for the fact that this was the on-campus job fair of The First Academy, they would have thought that they were acting!

Was it a joke?!

Shouldn’t the biggest and most dazzling display booth belong to the Swordsman or Energy Warrior or even Elementalist Associations?

The Sword Card Master Association…

They were not qualified enough!

“What does the school mean by this?”

“I don’t know.”

“Is Lu Ming the illegitimate son of the dean?”

“That is possible!”

The students were doubtful.

However…

The staff members who were near the audience and were responsible for running the event seemed to be very calm. The students did not know the reason why they isolated the Sword Card Master Association…

Well…

They were worried that other display booths would be implicated.

It was true.

As for why…

Shush!

At this moment.

The Sword Card Master Association took out their advertising slogan and hung it on the display booth.

“Cultivate automatically! Attack automatically! Deduce automatically! Aim automatically! Assist automatically! This is a brand new vocation that you’ve never experienced before! Unequaled amongst its peers! Most powerful in the area! With one card in hand, the world belongs to you! The Sword Card Master Association is waiting for you!—The most powerful association in the area!”

Wow—

There was an uproar in the entire hall.

All the students were dumbstruck.

This…

What the hell was that slogan?

One student rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had seen it wrong. Was the association crazy? Or had the students gone crazy?!

Most powerful in the area?

They were really daring to use this description!

No association had ever claimed that they were most powerful in the area!

Why?

Because vocations would restrain one another!

Did Swordsman have powerful combat abilities?

Yes!

However, they were not invincible!

In last year’s Herculean League competition, a powerful Swordsman claimed victories in all the matches. No one was able to survive three strokes of his. He would defeat them instantly!

However…

He lost.

He lost to a Cleric who was of the same level!

This was because the opponent had superb healing abilities. He would not die from his attacks, but would fully recover! Therefore, the powerful Swordsman was worn out by him and he died eventually…

→_→

There were many other similar situations.

Because vocations would restrain one another, no vocation dared to say that they were invincible!

Not one at all!

And now…

There was a vocation who did that!

An association with barely a few cultivators actually dared to claim that they were most powerful in the area and was unequaled amongst their peers. This no doubt attracted everyone’s attention! And… anger!

“Seniors.”

The staff member who was responsible for the Sword Card Master Association was shocked.

What the hell was this?

Although he was a four-star as well, and was at the same level as the gatekeeper, at the very least he was an cultivator! This kind of slogan would invite trouble!

And…

Yesterday, he merely praised the assistant’s pet chicken and today he was being assigned to this association.

Who did he provoke or offend?!

“Don’t you think that there is something wrong with your slogan?” the staff member said cautiously.

“Oh?”

Lu Ming turned back to take a look and suddenly understood. “This is wrong. I forgot to change it.”

“I see.”

The staff member was relieved.

He knew that they would not use this kind of shocking slogan.

“Xiaobai.”

“Yes.”

“Change it.”

“Okay.”

Xiaobai jumped up, circled the typo ‘rand’ and corrected it to ‘brand’.

The staff member was speechless.

Damn!

When he said that he forgot to change it, was he referring to this?

Shush!

At this moment.

He felt countless cold gazes sweeping across them. The other associations at the display booths, the students and well as the teachers were looking at them.

Their gazes were as sharp as a knife. It was as if they were being dismembered.

…

“Sword Card Master Association…”

“Haha.”

The other associations stared straight at them.

Their marketing slogan became ineffective as no one bothered to take a look.

At this moment.

All the students fixed their gazes on the Sword Card Master Association! Most powerful in the area, being unequaled amongst peers, as well as a series of automatic movements…

This attracted everyone’s attention!

“Brother.”

“Yes.”

“Let’s have an exchange with them later.”

“Okay.”

At this moment.

Many associations were eager to get some action.

Hehe.

They could not wait for the on-campus job fair to start.

So what if the Sword Card Master Association was arrogant?

Very well.

All they needed to do was to defeat them in one move…

They could make use of this chance for the students to know that the association that claimed that it was most powerful in the area, and unequaled amongst peers was in fact very weak! They had no right to call themselves the most powerful in the area!

However…

The people in the Sword Card Master Association seemed very calm.

What was the biggest problem that the association faced?

Popularity.

Right then, they had garnered everyone’s attention.

Those days, if they did not use stunning moves, it was impossible to leave an impression!

Looking at the dozens of associations that participated in this year’s on-campus job fair, apart from the few popular associations like the Swordsman Association and the Elementalists Association, very few people had paid attention to the rest of the associations!

Absolutely nothing!

They were all spare tires!

They would only be chosen because the bigger companies rejected them!

As for the Sword Card Master Association, they were only after the most talented students! They would not consider accepting spare tires!

“Master, are you sure this will do?”

Li Haoran was very doubtful.

The students could choose freely. No matter how arrogant they were, it was useless if the students ignored them.

“Don’t worry.”

Lu Ming looked calm. “Although the students can choose freely, it is not the same case for the other associations. They will take the initiative to challenge before the school makes a decision!

“As long as we win…

“It will be fine.

“Do you think the students who have made a choice will still stay with their choice after the associations they chose are defeated by us who are a few levels lower than them?”

Li Haoran thought about it and felt that it made sense.

However, why would the other associations challenge them?

“That is simple.”

Lu Ming smiled faintly.

“This is because everyone’s attention is on us. If they defeat us, they will naturally garner more attention.

“Since we are highly controversial, if they defeat us, they will gain the students’ favor.

“More importantly, the higher-ups from other associations know that we are very popular in the World of Darkness and Shadows. Therefore, they probably want to defeat us! They want to prove that although the Sword Card Master Association saved the students, we are still worthless. The students should not choose us and they should join them instead!

“Of course.

“The most important point is that our banner says that we are most powerful in the area and unequaled amongst peers!”

Lu Ming heaved continuous sighs.

“Haoran.”

“Yes.”

“You have to remember that these days your peers are always the ones who are the most vicious…”
