Chapter 1888: Chapter 170: Digging at the Wang Family’s Walls Is No Easy Task (Part 2)

Fourth sister ran away, leaving him, Wang Zongteng, abandoned.

A feeling of panic arose from nowhere, and for a moment, Wang Zongteng pitifully lay on the ground, motionless.

The passing students noticed him, stopped to point and whisper, but didn’t dare to get close.

“Wuwuwu~”

Wang Zongteng began to “cry” in grievance.

The black ink-like liquid slid down from the vines and hit the ground, making a sizzling corrosive sound, and in the blink of an eye, it corroded large holes in the bluestone tiles.

Just as Wang Zongteng was in a panic, Wang Lilong flew back again, and she pulled Wang Zongteng onto the misty water: “Stop crying, I’ll take you to register at the Elementary Clan School, just this once.”

“Yiya yiya.” Wang Zongteng happily snuggled in Wang Lilong’s arms and extended his tentacles to tightly wrap around her, as if afraid that his sister would run off again.

“Don’t hold me like that, it’s too embarrassing.”

“Yiya yiya.” Wang Zongteng was blissfully unaware.

Wang Lilong, helpless, was just about to take Wang Zongteng to register when she saw a group of non-Clan School society people coming. Leading them was a man wearing a purple crown, dressed in a purple-gold long robe, looking noble and imposing.

The servants behind him held up a conspicuous sign that read “Wealth and Glory, Peak of Life,” “Special Recruitment of the Daqian Court,” “Secure a Government Job, Benefit Thousands of Descendants,” and so on!

Such a high-profile sign naturally attracted the attention of many clan school students, and many started to point and comment or follow along to see what was going on.

As more students gathered, Wu Shengjun, the Sheng Commandery Prince responsible for recruitment, became increasingly exuberant, and the staff officer from the Commandery Prince’s Residence flattered, “Your Highness, with this tactic, not a single graduate from Wang’s Higher Clan School will escape, and even the graduates from the next few years can sign contracts in advance.”

“That’s not acceptable.” The Sheng Commandery Prince criticized sternly, “Wang family nurturing talent is not easy, we can’t go to extremes, we have to give a little leeway, and leave some for the Wang family.”

“Your Highness is very kind.” The staff officer kept flattering.

Despite saying this, the Sheng Commandery Prince was secretly pleased. A few days ago, during talent recruitment, he was repelled by Wang Xuanwei, the deputy principal of the Wang Family School’s Higher Institute. Not only were they relatives, but they had been introduced for marriage, yet she showed no respect.

Now that Family Head Shouzhe had agreed, the Sheng Commandery Prince naturally wanted to showcase the royal style and cause a commotion.

“Haha, quite the boast.” A cold and stunning beauty with a slender, well-proportioned figure, slightly wavy shoulder-length hair, emerged from the crowd, her clear eyes scanning the ostentatious signs and said, “Sheng Commandery Prince, Your Highness, do you think that with just these flashy conditions, you can make our Higher Clan School elites flock to you?”

“Shengjun greets the Third Miss.” The Sheng Commandery Prince confidently and calmly saluted, “It’s only been a few days since we last met, has the Third Miss changed her hairstyle?”

This Third Miss of the Wang family was not a simple person; she was Wang Shizhao and Qian Yurou’s eldest daughter, Wang Xuanwei, third in rank among the Xuan generation in the family, and also the direct line sister of the family’s prodigy, Wang Anye.

“A few days ago, I was disgusted by someone, so I changed my hairstyle for a change of mood.” Wang Xuanwei flicked her wavy hair, looking coldly at the Sheng Commandery Prince, “I know great grandfather agreed to your recruitment, but if you’re going to recruit, just recruit, and cut out these flashy things.”

“The flashy doesn’t matter, as long as it works.” The Sheng Commandery Prince laughed, “Back when the Third Miss’s grandfather and my father started their business in Return to Dragon City, the banners they put up were even more exaggerated. I’m just imitating the elders’ tactics.”

“Weiwei, what’s happening?” Wang Lilong dragged Wang Zongteng and flew over to Wang Xuanwei excitedly, “Is someone causing trouble at our Clan School? Don’t worry, your Grand Aunt Lilong will stand up for you.”

“Grand Aunt Lilong, great grandfather has helped you re-register at the Higher Clan School, you should still address me as Deputy Principal within the school.” Wang Xuanwei made a salute, her expression serious and businesslike, “This Wu Shengjun, Your Highness, is merely here for recruitment, not causing trouble.”

“Even if someone does cause trouble, the clan school guard will handle it, so you needn’t worry, just focus on your studies.”

Seeing Wang Lilong, to be honest, Wang Xuanwei also had quite a headache. This Grand Aunt Lilong, not only being highly ranked, but also particularly fond of causing trouble, was finally sent away from the Middle Clan School, and now she’s here to stir up the Higher Clan School.

“Recruitment?” Wang Lilong suddenly became excited, looked at Wu Shengjun, and said, “This guy looks a bit familiar, oh right, didn’t you date him?”

Wang Xuanwei’s face darkened: “Grand Aunt, don’t talk nonsense, we were just introduced.”

“Then why didn’t it work out?” Wang Lilong’s gossipy curiosity burned, “I think he looks okay, and his cultivation base has reached the Purple Abode Realm, which is passable.”

“Sigh, the age gap is too big, there’s a cultural gap too.” Wang Xuanwei sighed, “He doesn’t even understand calculus, his knowledge system couldn’t survive in the Middle Clan School, and he particularly loves reading romantic thrillers and insists on the concept of a flat earth… The most crucial thing is, he even reads pirated copies! I really can’t find a way to talk with him.”
