I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

Chapter 662: Chapter 364_2

A colossal entity unexpectedly joined the battlefield.

The First Urban Circle, Beijing University, openly extended an invitation to Xue Jing, hoping he would come to the First Urban Circle and become a special martial arts instructor at Jing University.

Things started to get complicated.

“Is that all?”

Xue Jing’s tone remained unchanged as he asked Du Shiwei on the other end of the phone.

“…Little Jing, you have great skills and a great heart, but I, your teacher, can’t handle it.”

Seeing that he seemed unconcerned, Du Shiwei couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.

“Everyday I receive more than a hundred calls, any of those callers could stomp in Qingcheng University and make the entire school tremble three times…”

“I’m old now, my heart isn’t what it used to be, and it’s not good to be constantly scared… Please give me a definite answer so I can reply to these immortals…”

In the midst of endless debates, Xue Jing’s personal wishes were the most crucial key.

Xue Jing thought for a moment and asked,

“Can one’s identity as a lecturer only be attached to one university, or can one hold multiple positions?”

Du Shiwei paused, hesitating,

“It’s not explicitly stated that you can’t, but there has been no precedent.”

“What do you think, Mr. Du, what do you want me to do?” Xue Jing asked casually.

Du Shiwei hadn’t expected that he could actually influence Xue Jing’s decision, and suddenly a terrifying pressure fell upon his shoulders.

Perhaps now, a single word from him could determine the outcome of the top educational powers in Zhuxia clashing… It was like having a nuclear launch button placed in front of him, forced to press it and choose which country to target, exhilarating yet terrifying.

Du Shiwei thought very seriously for a while before speaking with a dry throat,

“I think… the most beneficial choice for you is undoubtedly to accept the offer from Beijing University.”

“There are no rankings among the major urban circles of Zhuxia, talk of which number they are is just purely based on the order of establishment… but the First Urban Circle is unquestionably the best and highest place of all the urban circles, and Beijing University, as the unequivocally top-ranked institution, can also provide the most support for your future.”

“That is undeniably the Palace of the Polestar… Jing University rarely reaches out to people from other urban circles, and such an opportunity is rare.”

Xue Jing smiled unexpectedly and said, “Mr. Du, you are considerate.”

What lay before Du Shiwei was a possibly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity… If he could persuade himself to keep the lecturer position in the Fifth Urban Circle, using this achievement, his future rise to success would be unquestionable, breaking through internal and external barriers, and potentially achieving a class jump by taking a position in the Inner Ring.

He chose not to do so, however, instead he took the perspective of Xue Jing and let Xue Jing choose what was best for himself.

This was not necessarily because he was overly concerned for Xue Jing or exceedingly responsible as a teacher… but at least he was clear-minded, not losing his reasoning to temptation, vehemently persuading Xue Jing to stay in the Fifth Urban Circle for his own career’s sake.

“I’ll handle this matter later, and from now on when someone calls you, just say that the student has his own decision and you can’t make up his mind – just handle it and it’s fine.”

“Or simply set your phone to whitelist mode to get some peace.”

“If you encounter any trouble, find me at any time.”

After giving these instructions, Xue Jing hung up the phone.

He didn’t pay much attention to this matter; to others, becoming a lecturer at a major university was an event that could coat themselves in gold, but for him, it hardly counted as icing on the cake.

Later, he casually let Youqing A Dream handle it.

…

Upon returning to his reserved top-floor room at the Jiali Hotel, Xue Jing calmed down and began to consolidate the massive progress he had made over the past few days.

The rapid growth of his physical and spiritual values, the enhancement in understanding and realm of martial arts, he hadn’t fully grasped them before rushing to the next competition, hence his condition was still somewhat fluctuating.

In one day, using the Consciousness Simulation space, Xue Jing fully mastered all his current strengths and maintained his condition at its best.

Next, having nothing else urgent to do, after completing his daily training and practicing ‘Thousand Changes Dragon’ till he could roughly transform his entire hand into a dragon claw, Xue Jing planned to ask Ning Yuantai to take him to explore Silver City.

After arriving here, one thing followed another, and he hadn’t had time to explore the city.

However, just as he was about to leave, an unexpected visitor arrived and halted his plans.

“Little junior brother~ long time no see.”

The petite girl blinked her eyes that were as lively as those of a newborn deer, seemingly ready to shoot stars, and looked at Xue Jing with a joyous smile that blossomed from her heart.

Xue Jing was slightly stunned, then smiled and said,

“Long time no see, Zhu.”

…

“What about your opinion, Mr. Du? What do you want me to do?” Xue Jing asked casually.

Du Shiwei hadn’t expected that he could still influence Xue Jing’s choices. All at once, a terrifying pressure descended upon his shoulders.

Perhaps a single word from him now could determine the outcome of a confrontation between the top three powers in the Zhuxia educational sector… It was like having a nuclear launch button placed before him, and he had to press it and choose which country to target—both thrilling and terrifying.

Du Shiwei thought gravely for a long while before his throat dryly opened:

“I think… the most beneficial choice for you, without a doubt, is to accept the offer from Beijing University.”

“There are no rankings among the major urban circles in Zhuxia; any number is merely a creation order… but the First Urban Circle is undoubtedly the best and highest of all, and Beijing University, as the top-ranked institution, can provide the most support for your future.”

“That is undoubtedly the Palace of the Polestar… Jing University rarely extends an olive branch to people from other urban circles, and such an opportunity is rare.”

With a slight surprise, Xue Jing smiled and said, “Mr. Du, you are thoughtful.”

What lay before Du Shiwei was a chance that might only come once in his lifetime… If he could persuade himself to keep his lecturer position in the Fifth Urban Circle, with this achievement, his rapid ascent was without question; he could break through internal and external barriers, and a class leap to a position in the Inner Ring was possible.

But he didn’t do so. Instead, he chose to stand from Xue Jing’s perspective, letting Xue Jing make the best choice for himself.

Perhaps it wasn’t that he was particularly considerate of Xue Jing or had a sense of teacher’s responsibility… but at least he was clear-headed, not befuddled by temptation, truly arguing for his own career by persuading Xue Jing to stay in the Fifth Urban Circle.

“After this matter, I will handle it. If someone calls you later, just say the student has their own decision, and you can’t decide for them; just get by.”

“Or better yet, set your phone directly to a whitelist to enjoy some peace.”

“If you encounter any trouble, find me anytime.”

After giving instructions, Xue Jing hung up the phone.

He hadn’t paid much attention to this matter; for others, becoming a lecturer at a key university was a major event that could gold-plate one’s career, but for him, it was hardly even an icing on the cake.

Later, he casually let Youqing A Dream handle it.

…

Back in his reserved top-floor room at Jiali Hotel, Xue Jing settled his heart and began to consolidate his rapid progress over the past few days.

His physical and mental attributes had grown rapidly, and his understanding and realm in martial arts had improved, although he hadn’t fully grasped them before racing to the next competition, so his condition was still somewhat fluctuating.

In one day’s time, using the Consciousness Simulation space, Xue Jing had completely mastered his current strength, maintaining his condition at its peak.

Next, having nothing else to do, after his daily practice and practicing ‘Thousand Changes Dragon’ until he could roughly transform his entire palm into dragon claws, Xue Jing planned to find Ning Yuantai to take him on a tour around Silver City.

After arriving here, one thing followed another, and he hadn’t had time to explore the city.

However, just as he was about to leave, an unexpected visitor arrived, and halted his plans.

“Little junior brother~ long time no see.”

The petite girl blinked her eyes that were as lively as those of a newborn deer, seemingly ready to shoot stars, and looked at Xue Jing with a joyous smile that blossomed from her heart.
