All eyes were on Jiang Ye.

Jiang Ye bowed to Elder Bai, then glanced at over ten teachers in front of him.

Those teachers he scanned with his gaze smiled and nodded to him.

Who Jiang Ye chooses is his freedom.

The teachers did not interfere at this critical moment.

Jiang Ye pondered for a moment, then finally looked at the red-haired elder.

"Teacher Zhu." Jiang Ye bowed and said, "I wish to apprentice under you."

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him in astonishment.

Chen Yuntian looked incredulously at Zhu Honglie and said, "Old Zhu, what did you give him?"

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Honglie laughed heartily, shaking his head and said, "What can I offer him? This kid has insight."

Chen Yuntian looked at Jiang Ye, asking, "Little fellow, are you sure you don't want to reconsider?"

"Teacher Chen."

"Teacher Zhu has been kind to me." Jiang Ye bowed to the other party and said, "Even before joining Penglai University, I planned to apprentice under him."

He knew Chen Yuntian wanted to take him as a disciple.

But Zhu Honglie had once saved his foster father.

In the Shadow Disaster at An City, without Zhu Honglie, Jiang Dahai would likely have died in the Shadow Hunting Bureau.

And now, Jiang Ye understood.

The reason Zhu Honglie made that call was probably because he had already set his sights on him and wanted to take him as a disciple.

Otherwise, how could he have contacted him at the first instance of the Shadow Disaster in An City?

Therefore.

After careful consideration, Jiang Ye chose Zhu Honglie.

"I see." Chen Yuntian didn't say much.

He glanced at Zhu Honglie beside him, secretly cursing, "No wonder this old guy has been flaunting in front of me recently, he was prepared long ago!"

Zhu Honglie was all smiles.

"Jiang Ye."

"Since you wish to apprentice under me, I'll accept you as my disciple." Zhu Honglie said loudly, "From now on, anyone who bullies Jiang Ye is going against me."

"I, Zhu Honglie, am his backing!"

...

After Jiang Ye made his choice, the others also chose their teachers in turn.

Shen Changxi and Liu Wanxiao both chose Chen Yuntian.

Cloud Qing'er and Xu Haoran, like Jiang Ye, also chose Zhu Honglie.

Time passed.

The allocation for the top hundred students was completed.

On Zhu Honglie's side, including Jiang Ye, there were nine people in total.

"All of you." Zhu Honglie looked at Jiang Ye and the others: "Return to the dormitory first."

"Today, cultivate individually."

"Starting tomorrow, I will give you a separate cultivation plan." Zhu Honglie said, "Go back now."

"Yes." Everyone responded.

"Jiang Ye." Zhu Honglie suddenly said, "Stay behind."

"Alright." Jiang Ye nodded.

"Jiang Ye, I'm heading back first." Xu Haoran, Zhao Qingli, and others waved to him.

Jiang Ye nodded to them, then quickly followed Zhu Honglie.

...

In an office.

"Teacher Zhu." Jiang Ye looked at the red-haired elder in front of him and said solemnly, "Thank you for your assistance in that matter a month ago."

"Haha, no need to be so polite."

Zhu Honglie sat on the sofa, laughed heartily and said, "You were originally a student I had my eye on, a wave of my hand, it was nothing."

Though he said so, Jiang Ye still solemnly bowed in respect.

Life-saving grace is not a trivial matter.

Perhaps to the other party it was just a wave of the hand, but to him it was a matter of grave importance.

Seeing this, a trace of satisfaction flashed in Zhu Honglie's eyes.

He dismisses it as insignificant, but a person who can be grateful is undoubtedly more likable.

"Let's not talk about that."

"This time you won first place, the school has decided to upgrade your benefits to..."

Zhu Honglie paused, then smiled and said, "Upper A!"

"Upper A?" Jiang Ye held his breath.

Then he showed a look of joy.

This result was far beyond his expectations.

"Don't rush to be happy."

"Although your benefits are upgraded to Upper A." Zhu Honglie said, "But the contract level will not change for now."

"No contract change?" Jiang Ye was surprised and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Your high school exam scores are far from Upper A, plus you have Original Talent."

"So, just relying on one trial to upgrade you to Upper A contract, many teachers feel it's unreasonable."

"If in the Newborn Challenge three months later you achieve outstanding results." Zhu Honglie said, "Then, the school will upgrade your contract to Upper A."

Jiang Ye realized, then nodded.

It's very reasonable.

If he were in a position of power, he probably wouldn't immediately offer an Upper A contract either.

Original Talent, full of uncertainty!

His progress now is fast, but what about after the Second Break? Except for Jiang Ye himself, no one else can know.

The school offers Upper A benefits in advance, but won't sign a contract, intending to see his future performance.

If his performance in the Newborn Challenge is not outstanding, they probably won't offer Upper A benefits again.

"Newborn Challenge?" Jiang Ye couldn't help asking, "Is it a competition at this school?"

"Yes, it's a competition among you one thousand new students." Zhu Honglie said with a smile, "The time is set for three months later."

"Your target is the top ten in the school."

"Top ten in the school?" Jiang Ye's eyes sparkled.

"This freshmen entrance exam, you took first place."

"But your Life Level is lower than the top hundred students." Zhu Honglie said with a smile, "In terms of real combat strength, the top ten will be quite challenging for you."

Jiang Ye nodded slightly, maintaining a calm demeanor, though his heart stirred.

He knew that for a powerhouse like Zhu Honglie.

Seeing through his Life Level was easy.

In actual combat strength, he might not even rank in the top hundred among this year's freshmen.
