Chapter 98: The Luo Family’s Response
Luo Chengfeng stood up and pointed at Luo Xuan’s nose, cursing, "Luo Xuan, do you have no shame? A conflict between the younger generation has actually been escalated to a Family meeting. For the sake of that useless son of yours, you’re not even following the rules anymore, are you!"
"A First-Class Genius requires a massive amount of resources. If his surname were Luo, I naturally wouldn't have any objections, but after all, his surname is Yang."
"Then your wife, Rao Mingming, shouldn't speak at Family meetings in the future either; her surname isn't Luo either."
"Those are two different things!"
Luo Hai slammed the table with rare force.
With a loud bang, Luo Hai stood up and said, "What kind of behavior is this bickering? If the Family wants to develop and flourish forever, it doesn't rely on internal schemes, but on fair, just, and open Family rules."
"Yes, Clan Head," the Elders responded.
"To be able to break into the top ten thousand of the Divine Kingdom Simulation Battle within less than a year of Awakening shows that Yang Fan's Divine Kingdom has infinite potential. For such a Genius, our Luo Family should naturally put our full effort into nurturing him."
At this point, Luo Hai looked around and said loudly, "I announce that from now on, Yang Fan will be a First-Class…"
Luo Hai's words suddenly stopped, the expression on his Face shifting repeatedly, until finally, he sat back down in his chair.
"Clan Head, what is it?" Luo Chengfeng showed a look of confusion.
"There's no need anymore. Elder Chengfeng, return to the real world in a moment and bring Yang Fan to the Luo Family grounds."
"Huh?"
"Yang Fan has been admitted to Taichu Academy. Tomorrow, he will be picked up by a specialist and taken to Taichu City. This is the news Principal Hong just gave me; there can be no mistake," Luo Hai explained.
The scene instantly fell silent, and the dozen or so gods present all wore looks of disbelief.
Early admission, and Taichu Academy sending a specialist to escort him to Taichu City—the implications of this were far too great.
Eleven years ago, No. 1 Middle School also had a Genius who broke into the top ten thousand of the simulation battle, but that person only barely obtained a recommendation for admission to Xing Qiong Academy.
Let alone early admission, they even had to undergo a series of rigorous tests before entering the school.
Taichu Academy couldn't be fools; their intelligent life must have discovered something unusual.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to place such importance on him, rushing from Taichu City to Yang County in a single day.
To travel in such a hurry, how many space wormholes would they have to cross? The travel costs and resources spent would be an astronomical figure for gods from a small place like theirs.
"Clan Head, while Yang Fan hasn't been officially admitted to Taichu Academy yet, we should immediately sign a Family contract with him. This person might be a springboard for our Luo Family," one Elder said with a Face full of excitement.
"That's right. This boy's Divine Kingdom most likely has a hidden talent, we…"
"Enough. The Federal Government's protection of Prodigies is extremely strict; don't try these petty tricks. No matter what, Yang Fan came from our Luo Family. With this bit of connection, when he becomes a High-Order God in the future, even the scraps that fall from his fingernails will be enough to sustain us," Luo Hai said with a stern expression.
"Yes, Clan Head."
"Elder Chengfeng, hurry to the Yang City villa and bring him and your granddaughter to the Luo Family grounds in the real world."
"Yes," Luo Chengfeng replied and immediately disappeared from the meeting room.
After he left, Luo Hai stood up and announced, "Next, I have three things to announce: First, the B-Grade Building, Pill Tower, in the storehouse will be gifted to Yang Fan for free. Second, withdraw ten thousand divinity points from the Family account to support his living expenses at Taichu Academy."
Hearing this, the Elders all showed expressions of pain, but none of them argued.
Given Yang Fan's current situation, he was indeed worth the Family's full investment.
"Second, from now on, Luo Chengfeng's granddaughter Luo Rou's status is upgraded to a Family First-Class Genius. The Grand Elder will take my command token to Tiannan City to find Great Master Gu He and ask for his help in resolving the issue of Luo Rou's damaged Divine Kingdom. "
"In the future, when Luo Rou and Yang Fan's child is born, regardless of their talent, they will also enjoy the treatment of a First-Class Genius," Luo Hai continued.
"Yes, I will go shortly."
"Third." Luo Hai turned to look at Luo Xuan, his body radiating the pressure of a Third-Order God: "Your son is named Luo Mingxuan, right?"
"Clan Head, I will certainly discipline that brat well when I get back. I won't let him appear in front of Yang Fan ever again," Luo Xuan said with a trembling voice.
"Not enough. For your sake, Luo Mingxuan will be expelled from the Luo Family. Find a quiet place to raise him yourself," Luo Hai said, settling the matter with finality.
"I obey the Clan Head's command." Luo Xuan sighed in his heart, yet he was helpless.
"Brother Luo Xuan, don't be so sad, you two. That boy Luo Mingxuan was useless anyway; just have another one. We have achieved Breakthroughs to become gods and have long Lifespans; how can we be trapped by these personal feelings?" a nearby Luo Family Elder consoled.
"That's right. Compared to the Family's interests, you must know which is more important. Don't be foolish."
Many Elders began to remind him.
Luo Xuan's Face looked a bit ugly, but he didn't know how to argue back.
"Alright, the Family meeting ends here. You may all leave," Luo Hai said.
After everyone left, Luo Hai edited a message and sent it to his daughter.
In less than fifteen minutes, Luo Bing appeared in the meeting room.
At this moment, Luo Bing kept her head down, her Face filled with an irrepressible sense of defeat.
"Defeated by someone of the same age, are you not convinced?" Luo Hai asked.
"I'm just a bit unwilling," Luo Bing responded.
Luo Hai looked at his daughter gently, "Once you get to university and see more people, the pride in your heart will naturally be worn down. Don't think your talent is that great; it's only a B-Grade Talent. In Tiannan City, you might not even make the list."
"Ultimately, Yang County is too small. I should have arranged for you and Master Luo Hen to go to Tiannan City to study together back then."
"Father, I still need to study Formations. Why did you call me here?"
"It's confirmed that Yang Fan has been admitted to Taichu Academy. He will leave Yang County tomorrow," Luo Hai said.
Hearing this, Luo Bing pursed her lips slightly, "He really has good luck. I will definitely work hard to catch up to him."
Seeing that his daughter didn't realize the gravity of the situation, Luo Hai continued to explain, "In the last hundred years, three people from Yang County have squeezed into the top ten thousand of the Divine Kingdom Simulation Battle as high school students. One of them even ranked over nine thousand."
"Guess where they all went to university?"
Luo Bing shook her head, indicating she didn't know.
Although this news wasn't top secret, she didn't have time to research it. Moreover, she heard that as long as one entered the top ten thousand of the simulation battle, they would automatically get a hundred points on the first part of the College Entrance Examination, and even have the chance to be recommended to an excellent university.
"Of the three, only one entered Xing Qiong Academy. The other two didn't even receive an invitation."
Luo Bing looked at her father in confusion. If that were the case, Yang Fan's ranking was only at the very end of the top ten thousand, so why would he receive an invitation?
"The Genius who entered Xing Qiong Academy was rated as a Grade C Genius by the Federal Government. Guess what Yang Fan's evaluation was?"
"Prodigy! He was rated as a Human Race Prodigy by the Federal Government's intelligent life!"
Luo Hai stared into Luo Bing's eyes, his expression gradually becoming solemn.
Looking at her father's expression, Luo Bing finally realized the gravity of the situation. Yang Fan's potential seemed to far exceed her imagination.
