Chapter 138: League (Bonus Chapter for Alliance Master Opening Doors and Delivering Express) (Third Update)

These nineteen individuals were none other than Gakels, the City Lord of Starlight City on the Third Planet (Vice Council Speaker); Faraon, the City Lord of Sky Dome City (Vice Council Speaker); Alicia, the City Lord of Rainy City (Vice Council Speaker); and the highest administrative officers of the sixteen districts.

At this moment, Xiao Lie said with a chuckle,

“This Star Cluster Forum is really lively, constantly bickering. The matter of the Three Schools has once again been pushed to the forefront.”

“Isn’t this a common occurrence? It’s not the first time we’ve argued over this matter.”

Lin Aojun, the highest administrative officer of the first district, sneered and said.

Then Gakels, with a face full of wrinkles, deep-set eyes, and an extremely oppressive presence, spoke with authority.

“I don’t know what there is to argue about. Council President is currently in slumber, and for the people below to be squabbling, what kind of behavior is that! And what is there to dispute? Azure Sky Academy of Sky Dome City and Rainy City·Amonsk Advanced Academy have already declared themselves advanced academies.”

“Gakels, you also know it’s self-proclaimed. Why is it that the Federation is unwilling to acknowledge these two academies?”

An old man with a broad forehead, eyes like an eagle’s, eyebrows like sharp swords, and white hair, asked aggressively.

“I think Faraon makes a lot of sense. What exactly makes our two academies unqualified to be rated as advanced academies?”

At this moment, a woman dressed in a starry council robe, with exquisite and beautiful features, skin as delicate as mutton fat, a high nose bridge, rosy lips, a radiant gemstone necklace adorning her slender neck, and golden hair draped over her shoulders, exuding nobility and authority, spoke.

The other people present, seeing Faraon, the City Lord of Sky Dome City, and Alicia, the City Lord of Rainy City, speak, all remained silent, watching the show.

It was obvious that the two of them were now standing up for their own academies, directing their criticism towards Royal Court Academy.

Even though they had good academies, they couldn’t retain people; their talents were lost to Royal Court Academy every year.

“An advanced academy, even the Federation can’t just confer that title whenever it wants. You should be very clear how Royal Court Academy’s advanced title came about, so there’s nothing to argue about.”

Gakels replied with authority.

“Alright, you say there’s nothing to argue about regarding the title, then I also want to say, there’s nothing to say about the online debates. Royal Court Academy has indeed not been doing well in recent years, and its graduating students haven’t shown much improvement, so you can’t blame others for having objections.”

Faraon stated directly and bluntly.

“Faraon, watch your words.”

Gakels reminded him coldly.

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what I said, nor do I think there’s anything wrong with the dispute between the Three Schools. And I think that for this kind of thing, suppressing it won’t work; it will eventually lead to arguments, after all, everyone is unconvinced in their hearts!”

“Then you tell me, how can it be appeased?”

“It’s simple. Don’t all three schools claim their school is the best? The strength of the students determines everything. So why don’t the three schools each put up some money and organize an online PvP free-for-all competition among their students? Whoever wins will be the best school.”

Faraon directly stated his proposal.

“I think it’s feasible. Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth. Who is strong and who is weak will be known after a fight.”

Alicia also echoed.

“That’s a good idea! We’ll know who’s stronger after a fight!”

“Exactly! If you ask me, don’t just send the elites. Students from all grades in the entire school should participate. This will better demonstrate whose educational standard is higher.”

“That makes sense, a certain number of students from each grade.”

The others’ eyes lit up, and they chimed in, eager to see chaos unfold.

They were also very happy to see Royal Court Academy challenged, after all, during this City Exam, Royal Court Academy didn’t give them any face, directly instigating the Federation to send the Royal Court Order down, and their faces were almost swollen from being slapped.

“Gakels, aren’t you going to say something? Or do you lack confidence in Royal Court Academy?”

Faraon snorted coldly and questioned him without ceremony.

“Since you’ve all said this much, then the Three Schools will fund and establish a prize pool, jointly holding a competition. First prize will be 3 billion federal currency, second prize 1 billion federal currency, and third prize 500 million federal currency! There will be 100 excellence awards and 1,000 outstanding participation awards.”

“No problem!”

“It’s settled then!”

Faraon, the City Lord of Sky Dome City, and Alyssia, the City Lord of Rainy City, simultaneously agreed.

“And also.”

Gakels suddenly spoke.

“What else? You’re not regretting it, are you?”

Faraon immediately looked at Garkles and said.

“As Federal Senators, our words and actions must set an example; how could we go back on our word! However, since it’s a rare competition between the Three Schools, I think the Three Cities should also prepare a small prize to give to the winning academy.”

Garkles looked at the two and said.

“How much?”

Faraon asked with a slight frown.

“Not much, 10 billion.”

Garkles looked coldly at Faraon and Alyssia.

Faraon and Alyssia exchanged glances, then finally agreed.

“Alright!”

—

The next day at noon, in dormitory 301.

Su Ming, Rhine, and the others were sound asleep in their beds. They had all stayed up all night on the Star Cluster Forum, acting as keyboard warriors.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the tightly shut dormitory door was kicked open.

Su Ming and the others immediately woke up from their dreams, all sitting up and looking at the kicked-open door.

Teacher Mia stood at the doorway, excitedly shouting at Su Ming and the others,

“Quick, get up!”

Rhine and the others lay down weakly, one by one complaining,

“Teacher, what time is it? You’re not going to make us get up and debate again, are you?”

“We only went to bed at five in the morning. Those guys are incredibly stubborn too.”

“Yeah, even the donkeys on the production team aren’t worked this hard.”

“Oh, stop complaining! Get up quickly, I’m taking you to beat them up!”

Mia said with extreme excitement.

“Huh? No way! Teacher, you’re going to take us to beat people up on their turf? We’ll be ganged up on.”

Rhine and the others’ heads were buzzing. If they really went to fight, it might end up as headline news.

“Oh, where are your minds going? I’m telling you to get up and sign up, or there won’t be any spots left.”

Mia said exasperatedly.

“Sign up? Sign up for what?”

Su Ming and the others were even more confused, asking with great bewilderment.

“The post we flamed yesterday went viral and was pushed to the homepage of the Star Cluster Forum. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or what! Just a little while ago, Royal Court Academy of Starlight City, Azure Sky Academy of Sky Dome City, and Amonsk Academy of Rainy City, the three schools, issued a joint statement. To promote friendly exchange and enhance student strength, they decided to jointly organize a large-scale competition with super generous prizes! This is a rare opportunity for you to earn money.”

As Mia spoke, her eyes were shining.
