It was a little awkvvard, but Vincent also gained clear benefits, which only cost him about ten minutes.
“50 thousand, plus tuition waiver… it’s just a drop in the bucket compared to 10 million.”
Vincent felt even more upset deep down.
As for the college entrance exam bonus points, he didn’t care about them at all.
Not to mention that his previous life was a top student, even now, inheriting only his previous life’s memory, he basically had no pressure in exams.
Let alone that Vincent is now at the level of a professional beast tamer, his best record is fighting against Monarch-level Magic Beasts, and as an Awakener, which college could resist the temptation of adding a Three-Star Secret Realm?
After Vincent answered, the reporters left, the president was satisfied and left, leaving only Vincent and the students holding flowers in their hands, their eyes flashing greedily.
Vincent looked at them, swallowed silently, and muttered under his breath.
“At least leave me some underwear.”
The next moment, Vincent was engulfed by the howling students.
Barry was squeezed out by the surging crowd, and could only hear Vincent’s tragic wailing from inside; he jumped in place, helplessly anxious.
“I told you not to pull my pants!”
“Damn, you’re a guy! Don’t touch my ass!”
“Sebastian Wood! Put away your Thorny Flower Demon, my waist has been stung!”
“It hurts so much! Who the hell is pulling my balls!”
As the satisfied crowd dispersed, Vincent was left squatting on the ground, hugging his wrinkled clothes, looking up at the sky helplessly.
“What a bunch of beasts!”
Vincent, who had finally sorted out his clothes, entered the classroom.
But he hadn’t settled down for a few minutes before hearing the broadcast calling him to hurry to the president’s office, as there was important business for him to attend to.
“Why wouldn’t they say what’s up earlier? They had to wait until I settled down before saying anything, class is about to start.”
Even though Vincent was unhappy, there was nothing he could do. After all, the president had just given him money, and whoever gives money is the boss.
Following his memory, Vincent searched for a while and finally found the president’s office in the teaching building.
He knocked on the door, and after hearing a “come in”, he opened the office door and went in.
At this time, the president was standing obediently in front of a middle-aged man.
Although this middle-aged man did not show a particularly arrogant demeanor, the occasional disdain and high-handed attitude in his eyes deeply irritated Vincent.
If Vincent had to describe it, he would compare it to the unreasonable clients and some self-righteous leaders he encountered in his previous life.
Vincent walked straight to the president and ignored the middle-aged man, directly asking the president.
“Mr. President, what do you need me for?”
The president glanced at the middle-aged man, gave Vincent a look, and hinted at him to pay attention to his attitude. He then said to Vincent, “Vincent, this gentleman is from the Research…”
The middle-aged man rudely interrupted the president, “I am Caesar Gray, from the Research Bureau. My primary purpose for coming today is for your…”
Vincent interrupted Caesar Gray, “Do you know interrupting others is very impolite?”
Caesar Gray’s face darkened, looking very unhappy.
At this point, the president’s forehead was sweating profusely.
He had just dealt with Vincent at the school gate earlier, and he had seemed to understand subtle hints. How could he change so much once inside the school, failing to see that even the president had to show humility in front of this
man?
The president quickly took Vincent’s arm and apologetically said, “Caesar, please don’t mind the young student. He doesn’t know any better. I’ll definitely talk to him later!”
Caesar squinted his eyes and stared at the two for a while. The president couldn’t help but feel nervous, while Vincent remained indifferent.
Noticing the situation, Caesar suddenly burst into laughter. His laughter was hearty and his expression changed to a friendly one.
“Good! Well said! Young people should be spirited! This is a good thing. We old folks get older and have higher statuses, so we naturally become more cautious and lose that youthful spirit.”
“But what does having no spirit have to do with being impolite?”
Caesar was choked by his words and paused for a few seconds before laughing again.
“Yes, you’re right. I apologize. You’re right. We should always be polite and follow the rules in dealing with others, with different matters, with society, and with our country. But you also interrupted me just now, didn’t you?”
“Yes, but I’m not a polite person, I know it’s very impolite.”
In other words, Vincent meant to say that he didn’t want to be polite to Caesar. What could you do to me?
He didn’t pander to such people in his previous life, let alone now.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, the president rushed over to help smooth things over with Caesar.
Vincent didn’t make it too difficult for the president, so he sat down on the sofa, curious about Caesar’s intentions.
Caesar was clearly annoyed, but still managed to maintain a forced smile on his face.
“Spit it out, what do you want from me.”
Caesar wanted to speak directly but was interrupted by Vincent earlier on. Now that the young man dared to call him a dawdle, he felt wronged!
However, he didn’t want to pursue the matter any further, fearing he might be berated again by the youth.
“I like straightforward young people. I am Caesar Gray from the Los Angeles Research Bureau Branch.”
After finishing, Caesar changed the subject.
“Do you know the current situation of Ancient Cathay Country?”
“Current situation? What situation?” Vincent didn’t understand his meaning.
Caesar folded his hands behind his back, looking serious and said solemnly.
“The geographical location of Ancient Cathay Country is very critical.”
“On the eastern coast, we have faced many savage Totem Countries’ invasions from the ocean, and our power is stretched thin. The ocean’s beasts are virtually endless; if not for their constant infighting and the weakening of their power after being away from the sea, the land would have long been occupied.”
“In the west is the Ancient Indian Nation with the same long history as ours. In recent years, they have discovered and explored a Four-star Pure Land Secret Realm, greatly enhancing their national strength.”
“To the north, the Polar Bear Federation’s resources are scarce, and the terrain causes harsh living conditions, making them harsh and aggressive.”
“Not to mention the southern land, where many Beast Totem Countries are deployed, taking at least one-third of our entire garrison, and a constant presence of five king-level Beast Masters throughout the year.”
“Faced with constant external worries, if our people inside do not unite,
Ancient Cathay Country will have no future.”
“Vincent, what do you think?”
