After learning about Mo Yu's talent, Instructor Ruo Lin's mind immediately became active.
In the long history of Jia Nan Academy, countless talented individuals have emerged. The academy is renowned for discovering and nurturing such talents.
For Jia Nan Academy, cultivating geniuses is not just about giving; it also brings significant returns. In addition to tuition fees, the academy gains a vast network of connections through its alumni.
Over the years, Jia Nan Academy has cultivated countless emperors, generals, and influential figures for the Northwest Continent. Many powerful individuals have walked out of Jia Nan Academy, and even from Central Plains, many have traveled thousands of miles to study here.
Because of this influence, Jia Nan Academy has maintained its standing in the Northwest Continent, unaffected by various powers.
Thus, discovering and nurturing talents is not just a simple matter. For an instructor, finding a good seedling not only brings academy rewards but also may yield unexpected benefits in the future.
When Ruo Lin learned of Mo Yu's terrifying SSS-grade potential, she made up her mind.
"This boy must be brought into Jia Nan Academy."
"Who would've thought I'd stumble upon a new student with SSS-grade potential. Hehe, it seems I'm really lucky." The shock on Ruo Lin's face slowly subsided as she gazed at Mo Yu with bright eyes.
Mo Yu frowned upon hearing this. He had made himself clear, yet it seemed the instructor had not given up on recruiting him.
Seeing this, just as Mo Yu was about to refuse again, Instructor Ruo Lin blinked gently, her soft voice sounding once more, "Little genius Mo Yu, could you tell me why you're not interested in Jia Nan Academy?"
Seeing this mature woman acting like a little girl, Mo Yu felt a little embarrassed. Rubbing his nose, he calmly replied, "I prefer freedom and am not interested in formal education. Soon, I'll be traveling across the continent."
Hearing Mo Yu's words, Ruo Lin's eyes lit up. She keenly picked up on two key points.
First, Mo Yu wasn't rejecting Jia Nan Academy out of dislike; rather, he had his own plans, which clearly conflicted with attending the academy.
Second, Mo Yu's refusal was not because he had decided to join a sect.
In the Dou Qi Continent, sects are the mainstream. For example, in the Jia Ma Empire, the Yun Lan Sect is as popular as Jia Nan Academy. If Mo Yu had decided to join a sect, Ruo Lin wouldn't have been able to stop him.
With these points in mind, Ruo Lin became even more confident in convincing Mo Yu.
"Hehe, I see. It seems little genius Mo Yu is quite ambitious, wanting to carve his own path to strength." Although Ruo Lin understood his desire, she didn't fully agree with it.
Leaving both academies and sects could provide unexpected opportunities for rapid growth, but the greater the opportunity, the higher the risk. One misstep could lead to disaster.
However, Ruo Lin could tell Mo Yu wasn't an impulsive young man, so such persuasion would likely not affect him.
Thus, she turned to Xiao Yu, then smiled warmly at Mo Yu, saying, "Your fiancée is also in Jia Nan Academy. No matter what, you are connected to the academy."
"How about this? You can join Jia Nan Academy, and I'll grant you indefinite leave. You just need to acknowledge being a student here and report to the academy whenever you have the chance. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Mo Yu was impressed by Ruo Lin's persistence. This beautiful and gentle female instructor was clearly not as naive as she appeared.
Of course, Jia Nan Academy, being a famous institution on the Dou Qi Continent, would not have simple-minded instructors.
After thinking for a moment, Mo Yu glanced at Xiao Yu and eventually nodded.
For him, being a nominal student of Jia Nan Academy had no negative impact. Besides, with many members of the Xiao family studying there, Mo Yu didn't mind visiting in the future.
Seeing Mo Yu agree, Instructor Ruo Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Recruiting an SSS-grade student would undoubtedly draw the academy's attention.
Meanwhile, others around them couldn't help but feel a bit envious.
They had worked hard to enter Jia Nan Academy, yet Mo Yu was being actively pursued by an instructor. The difference in treatment was like night and day.
However, seeing the calm youth, they couldn't muster any jealousy. An SSS-grade talent would surely achieve heights far beyond theirs.
After settling this matter, Instructor Ruo Lin shifted her focus back to the other students' potential evaluations.
With a slight smile, Ruo Lin gracefully sat at the head of the tent, raised her hand, and with a flash of light from her ring, a green parchment scroll and ink brush appeared in her hands.
"Hei Yan, Dou Zhi Qi, 9th stage, age twenty."
A dark-skinned youth in the first row blushed slightly as he reported his stats.
Nodding, Ruo Lin quickly recorded the information. This was more typical for academy students. She smiled and said, "E-grade."
"Lin Dun, Dou Zhi Qi, 8th stage, age nineteen."
"F-grade."
"Ke Li, Dou Zhi Qi, ninth stage, age seventeen."
One by one, the students reported their stats. Compared to Mo Yu, their previously impressive scores now seemed rather ordinary.
As the room calmed, two more students shook the tent's atmosphere with their results.
"Xiao Yan, seventeen, four-star Dou Zhe."
"A-grade!"
"Xiao Xun'er, sixteen, six-star Dou Zhe."
Hearing this, Instructor Ruo Lin, who had just calmed down, was once again shocked.
Though her shock tolerance had improved after dealing with Mo Yu, this result still left her in disbelief.
After a while, she composed herself, glanced at Xiao Yan and Xun'er, then at the indifferent Mo Yu in the corner. A gleam appeared in her eyes as she asked Xiao Yu in a soft voice.
"Yu'er, were they both brought by you? Are they also your family?"
Xiao Yu, still surprised by Xiao Yan and Xun'er's results, nodded slowly. These younger relatives had surpassed her.
Recalling the Di-Class techniques Mo Yu had gifted her, Xiao Yu resolved to work harder, determined not to fall too far behind.
"Yes, Instructor Ruo Lin. Xiao Yan and Xun'er are my cousins. Both have exceptional talent. Xiao Yan and Mo Yu are even known as the Twin Dragons of the Xiao Clan." Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yu explained.
"Hey, Yu'er, does your family eat magical herbs or something? How are there so many prodigies?" A nearby girl exclaimed in shock.
Xiao Yu remained silent. Though she had spent much time with these three prodigies, their talent still amazed her.
It seems, in life, comparisons are impossible.
Just as the group remained in shock, Xiao Yan stepped forward, glanced at his indifferent cousin Mo Yu, who seemed unsurprised by their results, scratched his head, and sheepishly asked Instructor Ruo Lin:
"Um, Instructor Ruo Lin, could I... also request a leave? It doesn't have to be as long as Cousin Mo Yu's, just... maybe a year."
Instructor Ruo Lin (▼へ▼メ): "..."
