Transcendent Dawn-Chapter 524 - 0: Admission (7600 supplementary, requesting monthly ticket)

Chapter 524: Chapter 0524: Admission (7600 supplementary, requesting monthly ticket)

“Aping, how did you do? Did you pass?”

Returning home, Ximen Ping’s mother immediately came up to inquire.

No wonder she was so anxious, as the news broadcasted Transcendent related content every day. A large number of Experts and Scholars arguing that after embracing the Transcendent, the world will become better and better.

Whoever can master the Transcendent, in the world to come, would be able to leap and achieve upward social mobility!

She may not understand fully, but the idea of attending East City Mystery College and becoming a person of a superior kind, had deeply rooted in her mind.

“I…I don’t know.”

Ximen Ping felt bitter in his heart.

“Pingyazi, don’t lose heart… if you don’t make it this time, there’s always the next.”

A few aunties taking a walk in the neighborhood comforted him, “I heard that a kid from the family of a friend of my relative’s next-door neighbor’s uncle’s youngest aunt got in… The crystal ball glows as soon as he touches it, and was immediately fought over by a group of teachers!”

‘There’s only one examiner, right? And…why does this seem like something I’ve read in a novel? Some genius character that causes frenzied competition among the elders?’

Ximen Ping rolled his eyes speechlessly, returned to his room, lay on his bed, and took a deep breath.

He didn’t want to eat, instead, he randomly opened his phone and swiped through the news.

As expected, the most explosive and most heated topic was still the secondary selection of the Mysterious Academy.

Semingly, each examination centers contained the same content, getting a number in line, touch the crystal ball.

As for what they said about the crystal ball glowing, they were all nonsense.

This made him feel a little better.

After all, there’s still a chance, right?

He drifted off to sleep drowsily.

…

Nighttime.

All was quiet.

Peck, peck!

The sound of pecking at the window grew louder and louder.

“So annoying.”

Ximen Ping opened his eyes and turned on the bedside lamp, “Who’s there? My God…”

He drew the curtain and was immediately taken aback.

A black crow was perched on the windowsill, its blood-red pupils stared straight at him.

“Ximen Ping?”

The crow cleared its throat and spoke in a human voice, “I’m a messenger from East City Mystery College, and now I’m honored to inform you that you’ve been admitted by our institution, your major is Mystery studies.”

“A crow…that can talk!”

Although he had seen some videos of variated animals before, Ximen Ping was still shocked upon witnessing it firsthand, “Hold on, what did you say? I…I got in, you…you’re a postman?”

“Are you planning to talk to the noble Crow family through the window?”

The crow on the other side said impatiently, “Or would you prefer me to break in?”

“Oh, no no, please come in!”

Ximen Ping quickly opened the window to let the crow in.

The black crow groomed its feathers and looked around, “Also, I’m the distinguished messenger Morocco. Don’t compare me to those ordinary postmen.”

“Right, great Messenger.” Ximen Ping muttered in his heart, isn’t a messenger just a fancy term for a postman? But of course, he wouldn’t show it.

He thought for a moment, then hurriedly opened the fridge and took out a box of milk.

“Hmm hmm, you’re not bad.”

Crow Morocco drank the milk, seemingly satisfied.

“So… where is my acceptance letter?” Ximen Ping rubbed his fingers together.

“This… of course.”

Morocco slapped itself, it was indeed wearing a plain and unassuming dark green satchel, looking just like the ones used by those postmen.

Out flew a letter:

Ximen Ping, you’ve been accepted by our college with a major in Mystery studies. Please bring this notice and report under the largest tree in Eastern City Forest Park before September 1st. You may bring the following items:…

The signature at the end read: East City Mystery College, Principal Bai Jing.

The notice was engraved with intricate patterns, occasionally a trace of golden lines would flicker on its surface.

“I…I…Oyeah!”

“I got in!”

Watching the crow messenger leave, Ximen Ping suddenly raised his fist and yelled out loud.

…

Thump!

Heavy object hitting the ground.

“Ah!”

Ximen Ping, who rolled off the bed from his sleep, let out a scream, looking out of the window, he found it was already morning, the sun shining through.

“I…I wasn’t dreaming, was I?”

His expression became somewhat blank, “Also…how could a school possibly send an unreliable crow to deliver letters? I must have gone crazy wanting to get in, to the point where I’m having such dreams.”

Ximen Ping felt a bit regretful as he climbed back into bed.

Suddenly, his expression froze, on the bedside table, that uniquely designed and beautifully crafted notice was quietly lying there.

“Is…is it real?”

“I…I got accepted.”

Ximen Ping waved the notice vigorously, could hardly wait to rush out of the room, eager to share this joy with his family and friends.

…

“Hey! Dear Ruby, don’t you think this could be a scam?”

East City, within an international hotel.

Gill’s father turned to his wife with a troubled face, “We searched all over East City, but we didn’t see this so-called Mystery College!”

“But…it has already started recruiting students, and even has some internet celebrities endorsing it.”

Ruby replied firmly.

“Alright, alright… but why are foreign students required to take additional tests? This is outright discrimination…I’m going to protest!”

Gill’s father was indignant, “I don’t understand, what does Mystery studies have to do with the English level eight exams?”

“Thankfully our Little Gill is smart, and he applied for the primary program, where the requirements are a bit lower… The truth proves that our son is indeed a genius.”

Ruby said fondly.

Just then, Gill walked in holding an admission notice, “Daddy mommy…I got my acceptance letter.”

“Hmm?”

Gill’s father took the letter with a complicated face and started to read more carefully.

Meanwhile, Ruby couldn’t wait to hug her son and kiss him, “Sweetie, I knew you’re the best.”

“Strange… when was this delivered?”

Gill’s father asked in confusion.

“Last night, it’s odd. I thought the messenger would be an owl, but it turned out to be a crow…”

Gill sucked on his finger, “Now, can I go to magic school?”

…

Time flew fast, the summer vacation passed in a blink.

The clamor of the Mysterious College’s admissions also came to an end, those lucky children who were accepted were passionately sought after by the media and quickly gained fame and fortune.

Ximen Ping had lost count of how many lectures he’d given, and how many events he’d attended, he felt his face was about to collapse from all the smiling.

But the feeling of success felt really good.

Today was the day he set off for East City.

“Bro…” Ayun sent him off with tearful eyes, he reminded earnestly, “When rich and honored, do not forget each other!”

“Rest assured!”

Ximen Ping patted his buddy’s shoulder, “Wait until I’m rich and honored, I will definitely not forget you!!”
