Chapter 224 Whose cultivator studies medicine, refines pills, and fights all at the same time?
"Look at the screen, which school is the 'First Place Belongs to Wanjue Academy' team from? How come the transaction amount suddenly reached 300 million?"
"? I've never heard of this team before. Are they from the Myriad Absolutes Academy?"
"It looks like it. How come people from Wanjue Academy are still betting? Aren't they afraid of losing everything?"
"Who knows? Haha, someone even bet 300 million on Wanjue Academy. This team looks like an ordinary team. I don't know where they got such a big mouth. Forget about Wanjue Academy getting first place, it would be good if they weren't ranked last among the four major academies."
"Indeed, I don't understand why anyone would invest money. Three hundred million is not a small amount, and it came out all at once. It seems like it was invested by several people."
As the two cultivators were talking, Jin Dazhu suddenly interrupted. He had been carried by Jiang He and his friends in the last team competition of his college entrance examination, and his overall score was not bad. He later got into a university with a good ranking, but it was not as good as the four major universities.
He never analyzed the prospects of his investments; Jin Dazhu only felt that the name of the Wanjue Academy team was somewhat eccentric, so he casually asked about it:
Do you know the members of this team?
Upon hearing Jin Dazhu's question, the two cultivators who had been conversing stopped:
"How would we know? It's just a team from the Myriad Absolutes Academy. Only a fool would bet on it. What's wrong? You want to bet?"
Jin Dazhu nodded:
"We are interested in this."
Jin Dazhu has always been lucky, and he successfully registered for this academic competition.
He had watched the videos of the university competition and knew about the previous battles, but for some reason, Jin Dazhu inexplicably felt a good impression of this team from Wanjue Academy.
"You really want to invest? I advise you not to waste your money. Wouldn't it be better to use that money to invest in a safer team?"
"Didn't you see the power analysis of Wan Jue Academy on the screen this year? They don't even have half the number of Nascent Soul cultivators compared to Ling Qing's team. If you ask me, some of the newly promoted universities this year are almost as strong as Wan Jue. Wan Jue might not even be able to hold onto fourth place this year."
"Haha, that's right. Wanjue Academy still occupies a spot among the four major academies. I think it's all in name only."
Jin Dazhu scratched his head:
"But this year, Wanjue Academy has a total of four hundred cultivators entering the Academy Competition, which is the maximum number."
"What's the use of reaching the full quota? I see there are some Foundation Establishment cultivators among them. If the quantity is high but the quality is low, then it's no good either."
Jin Dazhu: "But..."
"Alright, alright, if you want to lose money, then go ahead and invest. Stop hesitating. We poor people can only play it safe. Just don't come looking for us if you lose money. I didn't try to get you to invest in Wanjue Academy."
"That's right, we're optimistic about Ling Qing and Xi Ling. They'll either be number one or number two."
"Okay." Kim Dae-joo watched the two leave and then joined the end of the line.
Jin Dazhu's family owns quite a few businesses. When Jin's father heard that Jin Dazhu was going to visit Venus, he immediately gave Jin Dazhu 1 billion star coins and told him to have a good time.
The trading queue gradually shortened. Jin Dazhu felt that it was strange that Wanjue Academy, which hadn't filled all its spots in previous years' academy competitions, was now full. When Jin Dazhu made his trades, he still favored Wanjue Academy, investing 200 million in it, another 100 million in Wanjue Academy's top ranking, and another 100 million in the name of the team he had just seen.
The remaining 800 million was allocated to Xiling (second place), Lingqing (fourth place), and some individual votes from other teams.
The billion yuan was spent completely.
Jin Dazhu also made the transaction through the Lixi window, and this time the amount was even more outrageous. However, he did not try to dissuade him and quickly helped Jin Dazhu complete the formalities.
One after another, quite a few people bet on Wanjue Academy, and Li Xi suddenly became curious about this university that had been ranked at the bottom of the four major universities for many years.
This year, not many people are optimistic about Wanjue Academy, but there are still quite a few more than last year.
The pool of Wanjue Academy currently has one billion.
When Zhang San came over to place his bet, he was torn between betting on Xiling or betting on Lingqing.
After all, rumors say that Xiling has produced quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators this year, and they are likely to be able to compete for first place and secure second.
Just as Zhang San was thinking, he suddenly heard the person next to him invest 1 billion yuan in Wanjue Academy. His hand trembled and he clicked to confirm the transaction. The money invested was indeed in Wanjue Academy.
???
Zhang San watched as all the savings he had accumulated over most of his life were gone!
I'll still vote for Wanjue Academy!
Zhang San wanted to stop the transaction, but the exchange staff were quick and approved it immediately.
Zhang San instantly wanted to slap himself twice. He thought to himself, "Why am I so careless?"
Alas, it's too late to change anything now.
Zhang San opened the videos of the Academy Grand Competition from previous years, and then opened the names of the cultivators from Wanjue Academy who participated this year.
Upon seeing this, it was as if the sky had fallen. In previous years, the Wanjue Academy's performance had not been very good, and it was often suppressed by Ling Qing. This year, the cultivation levels of the cultivators were even more uneven.
Zhang San silently closed his personal terminal. The fact that the number of participants in the Wanjue Academy's competition reached four hundred was a consolation for the day.
Zhang San wiped away a tear, feeling a pang of sadness. He hadn't had any faith in Wanjue Academy before, but after this transaction, he shook off the disappointment and decided to go back to working.
Jiang He, whom Lingxi and her colleagues mistook for a young master or lady from a wealthy family, is actually penniless and owes 200 million.
After half a year of hard work, I've come back to square one. Tomorrow is the university competition.
The Academy Grand Competition is a holographic competition, which allows the input of magical artifact data, but no more than five artifacts can be used.
Things like pills and talismans couldn't be brought in at all, so Jiang He didn't spend any extra money to buy them.
After leaving the exchange, Jiang He had a good night's sleep in her dormitory. The next day, when she was fully recovered, she went to the location where the simulation pods were placed at the academy.
As soon as Jiang He entered the door, many people turned their attention to her.
Jiang He's achievements were so remarkable that most of the cultivators at Wanjue Academy were busy going to the Trial Tower, and the number of people online was reduced by more than half. They only had time to go online last night after the registration deadline.
You don't know what you'll find until you go online; once you do, you'll be shocked.
Jiang He's success in passing five trial towers shocked the entire Wanjue Academy. The forums connected to the campus network were packed with cultivators, all switching between the trial towers and the forums.
One minute I'm checking the leaderboard in the Trial Tower, the next I'm logging out of the simulation pod and back in to post screenshots and confirmations.
The fact that Jiang He passed five trial towers was even more shocking to them than knowing that Jiang He was an alchemist. After all, what kind of cultivator studies medicine, alchemy, and fights all at the same time?
Not only did he complete the two professional courses of magic cultivation and sword cultivation, but he also passed the seventh level of the planting tower.
These are five completely different majors!
They knew all too well how impressive it was to have passed the seventh level of all five trial towers.
The entire Wanjue Academy was buzzing with discussion last night, but they still haven't seen the real person.
Now that they've seen it, they feel it's all a bit like a dream.
So there really are all-rounders who can take five professional courses.
After entering the hall, Jiang He noticed that more and more people were looking at her. Thinking about the acne she had gotten from staying up late recently, Jiang He silently applied a small piece of ointment.
I just don't know if they were looking at her pimples or something else.

Even before the competition started, hundreds of millions of people flooded into various live streaming rooms.
