In the sky, from far away, different specks of light rushed towards the place of the ceremony at high speed!
The Night Watch’s Captain, Ji Gang, a Lv69 third stage Awakened, was the first to arrive!
His wild and domineering aura alerted the crowd of teachers.
He landed right in front of Jiang Chen.
Excitedly, he asked: “Young friend, what class have you awakened?”
The teachers who were not so far away, who had been excitedly waiting to come over to Jiang Chen, now had their path blocked by Ji Gang which made them want to cry.
But there was no denying it.
That was a 3rd stage Awakened, also called a Master!
They could not provoke him.
As for the students in the crowd, many of them saw a Master for the very first time, so they were very excited.
Woosh!
Woosh!
Woosh!
Several more specks of light landed, the admission teachers had arrived as well!
Ji Gang raised a brow and lifted his right hand up.
A long sword of piercing cold light emerged, flying towards the sky!
“Why are you in such a hurry?”
“The admission teachers of the nine great universities also must follow the rules. First come, first served. You understand, right? Stay back.”
The long sword stood stabbed into the ground, standing in the way of the rest.
The teachers gritted their teeth, but did not move any further.
When it came to the universities and the nightwatch, they never got along…stealing recruits from one another was often!
After that, Ji Gang felt that his performance just now might have been a bit too crude.
A smile appeared on his face.
Looking back at Jiang Chen, he continued: “Hey there, student, I’m Ji Gang, the Night Watch Captain of Chu Jiang!”
He looked sincere, his domineering aura was gone, making him look like an ordinary uncle.
There was expectation within his gaze.
Jiang Chen smiled and replied: “My class is the Divine Spiritual Master…”
After hearing that, Ji Gang was astonished.
“Spiritual master?”
He blurted out, bitterness in his gaze.
That’s a simple Creation class.
Its only function is to nurture spiritual plants. That’s to say, the alchemist association would recruit such a talent.
Wait!
How could a simple Spiritual Master cause such a stir?
“You…what rank did you say your class was?” Ji Gang had just thought of it again and recalled its name.
His heartbeat seemed to have stopped for a moment.
His eyes widened, waiting for confirmation.
“Divine rank!” Jiang Chen repeated.
“Divine!”
“So, it’s Divinel!”
Ji Gang’s mind was humming.
Over the hundreds of years since the beginning of the era of Awakening, there have been so few of that rank that they could be counted on one hand!
Each and every one of them were extraordinary!
And now, another one appeared in Chu Jiang, under his jurisdiction!
Amazing!
“Student, are you willing to join the Night Watch?”
Ji Gang suppressed his excitement and tried to talk calmly: “On behalf of the Night Watch of Great Xia, I wish to extend an invitation to you. If you join us—”
His words were left unfinished!
The admission teachers from the nine great universities were unable to sit still and not interfere!
“Student! If you join the Night Watch, you would be making a huge mistake!’
“Don’t listen to his nonsense! The Night Watch is a dangerous place, only death awaits you if you join them!”
“Yes yes! You wouldn’t want to die before you even begin your journey, right?!”
“The Night Watch is too dangerous. Everyone who joins gets too many tasks, there is no time for you to kill monsters and grow!”
“Jiangnan university is trash! Come to our city, you can pick the price we have to pay! Whatever resources you want, just say it and it’s yours!”
“Come to the capital! We will help you meet the Senior General!”
“…”
The admission teachers tried their best to outdo one another.
Even though Jiang Chen only got a Creation class!
But the “Divine” added to it was enough to make all major forces go wild, they’re ready to fight for him at all costs!
Ji Gang indifferently watched the group of people arguing in front of him.
He withdrew his gaze, and looked at Jiang Chen, opened his mouth again, but no word came out.
It’s true!
What did the Night Watch have to offer him?
Several hundred years ago, great changes came to the world, the nations all over the world were slaughtered by monsters.
As the heaven’s will appeared, the Awakening started.
The first generation of Awakened in Great Xia formed the Night Watch.
What’s the Night Watch?
They existed to ignite that fire, they’re the hope of mankind.
Generation after generation, one after another, the world finally reached its current stability.
But who remembered them?
“Right, who remembers…?”
“The Night Watch is not like the universities who have the support of huge financial groups. It’s not like the military, which controls the dungeons and hidden realms…there are few resources with us, but a lot of work to do. We also have to protect the city and block the monsters…”
Which talent would choose them?
Ji Gang’s face showed an ugly smile that was even worse than tears.
He didn’t say a word. He patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder and said with a heartfelt smile: “Young friend, I wish you luck on your journey. Excuse me.”
After saying that, he moved his right hand and the long sword returned to his side.
He’s ready to go.
But…
Just when he was going to leave, Jiang Chen’s voice suddenly echoed from behind: “Captain, I want to join the Night Watch.”
Ji Gang suddenly turned around.
He asked in disbelief: “What you just said…are you telling the truth?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Chen’s face was extremely calm: “It’s our duty to restore the honor of the Night Watch.”
Certainly…
Jiang Chen had considered it carefully when choosing.
After all, the Night Watch had more time to go outside the city to deal with monsters.
That level of freedom considering his identity was much better.
Also, when a hidden realm and ruins appear, the Night Watch was the first on sight!
For others, that’s dangerous.
But for Jiang Chen, if he wanted his insects to turn into an army of calamities, he had to let them devour the life force of other beings!
On the awakening platform, Ji Gang looked at Jiang Chen in the eyes, and understood that he was really certain.
“Good!”
“Good!”
“Good!”
He said three times in a row, there were even tears in his eyes:
“Boy! We are brothers from now on!”
After he said that, he gave him a tight hug.
Jiang Chen didn’t reply to the gesture.
Honestly, being held in the arms of that burly man…
It didn’t feel great.
Xiyue!
Xiyue, come and save me!
Looking around, he found the girl’s eyes curved into crescent moons, she was smiling.
