Global Deities: Rising as Wood Elves' God

Zhang Yi didn’t press the issue any further. After all, having gone through the university selection, joined the University Alliance Training Camp, and participated in countless competitions of all sizes, Zhang Yi was now confident he wouldn’t lose to anyone, in any regard.

With that topic concluded, Zhang Yi continued to look over the contract. He then noticed that the section regarding his use of each campus’s Divine Artifacts, which had been vague in the last contract, was now extremely detailed.

"Student Zhang Yi, upon entering Tianya Academy, will be under an S-Level development contract."

"Barring any additional access to other campus Divine Artifacts obtained by Student Zhang Yi through other channels, Student Zhang Yi will, upon the start of the school term, have one opportunity to receive the blessing of the Tianya Academy main campus’s Middle-level Divine Artifact: the Celestial Destiny Compass!"

"He will also have one opportunity to choose and use one Divine Artifact from each of the other two campuses."

"If the use of a Divine Artifact is time-limited, the duration of use will be twelve hours."

"Barring unforeseen circumstances, Student Zhang Yi will have one opportunity to use each of Tianya Academy’s three Divine Artifacts this semester."

"..."

Every clause regarding Zhang Yi’s use of Tianya Academy’s Divine Artifacts was clearly defined, leaving no room for ambiguity. Most importantly, these were just the opportunities that came with the S-Level development contract; it didn’t prevent Zhang Yi from acquiring more opportunities or longer durations of use through other means.

"What do you think?" Seeing that Zhang Yi had finished rereading the entire contract, Instructor Li Qiantian asked, "Is there anything missing this time? Or anything you’re not satisfied with? If there is, we can still make changes!"

Hearing the sincerity in Instructor Li Qiantian’s offer, Zhang Yi closed the contract. He had had enough time to memorize its entire contents. Zhang Yi didn’t answer right away. Instead, he mentally reviewed it one last time to confirm there were no issues and that it required no further revisions. Only then did he reply to the instructor.

"It’s acceptable. The new contract is very detailed, and its terms align with what we previously discussed. I accept this contract."

"Excellent, excellent, excellent!" Instructor Li Qiantian exclaimed, his joy palpable. He had discovered Zhang Yi during the provincial exams, and in his eyes, Zhang Yi was the student with the most potential he had found in this University Alliance Training Camp assessment. Zhang Yi’s agreement to sign this contract meant all his previous efforts hadn’t been in vain.

By virtue of the goodwill he had now established with Zhang Yi, Instructor Li Qiantian was confident he would reap even greater rewards in the future. So, hearing Zhang Yi’s answer, Instructor Li Qiantian said with delight, "Shall we sign the contract now, then?"

As he spoke, Instructor Li Qiantian produced a pen he had prepared in advance. Zhang Yi took the pen and signed his name on the signature line on the last page of the contract. The moment he signed, he felt a mysterious Power envelop his entire body. It was a sign that the contract was taking effect. However, compared to the contract he had signed with Lin Aoxue, Zhang Yi could clearly feel that this one was far less binding.

"Welcome, officially, to Tianya Academy!" Instructor Li Qiantian collected the signed contract, stood up, and shook Zhang Yi’s hand. "I look forward to seeing you again at Tianya Academy!"

After the handshake, Instructor Li Qiantian offered Zhang Yi his best wishes. Then, after reminding Zhang Yi not to forget to collect his reward for passing the month-end team assessment tomorrow, the instructor departed. Evidently, he wanted to deliver the contract to Tianya Academy’s administrative office as soon as possible to finalize the matter.

After seeing Instructor Li Qiantian off, Zhang Yi didn’t rush to his Divine Domain Connection Pod. Instead, he walked to the window and gazed at the scenery outside.

The contract he had just signed mentioned that he was allowed to bring two students with him to Tianya Academy as companions, who would enjoy the benefits of a B-Level contract. Since the minimum for students entering Tianya Academy was a D-Level contract, a B-Level contract was quite good.

Time had been precious ever since Zhang Yi entered the University Alliance Training Camp, so he hadn’t taken the initiative to contact Lin Aoxue even once. But now...

Even if Lin Aoxue’s performance isn’t enough to meet Tianya Academy’s minimum standards, I have a way to get her in. But I believe that with her strength, plus the resources provided by the Zhang Family, she should be capable enough to get into Tianya Academy on her own merits. If she can’t even manage that, I’ll have to reconsider the level of investment I put into her. Even though I’m building a team and need members, I can’t just accept anyone. As for these two companion student slots, if I don’t use them, I can always trade them away. That’s one of the unwritten rules of the top academies. It’s a way for the scions of powerful families who lack Talent to still get into the Yanhuang Federation’s top academies.

「After a night’s rest, the next day, May first, arrived.」

This was the day rewards were to be distributed for the second internal team assessment. It also marked the impending end of the University Alliance Training Camp’s second assessment for the Yanhuang Federal Region. Once that concluded, the exchange matches between the Yanhuang Federal Region and the other regions of the Blue Star Federation would begin. At that point, the University Alliance Training Camp would be two-thirds over and nearing its conclusion.

Therefore, with the training camp’s mid-term assessment wrapping up, claiming the rewards from the April team assessment to strengthen one’s Clan had become crucial.

When Zhang Yi walked out of his room and into the small training camp’s main hall, every member of the Tianya Academy team who saw him took the initiative to greet him. So, in the time it took to walk into the hall and find a seat, Zhang Yi had to exchange greetings no fewer than five times.

After Zhang Yi finished greeting everyone, Hong Tianyi sidled up to him and said with a laugh, "Brother Zhang, with your popularity in our squad, you’ve really won the hearts and minds of the people. You’re the captain in both name and spirit! So, think you can get me an official title? I want to move up in the world, too!"

"Get lost!" Zhang Yi gave the most concise possible reply to Hong Tianyi’s joke.

"Okay, okay, no more jokes." Hong Tianyi leaned in close and said in a low voice, "When you came in just now, I saw Lu Mei glancing at you a few times. That look in her eyes was something else!"

"Could it be...?"

"Stop gossiping," Zhang Yi replied.

"It’s not gossip, it’s a fact I saw with my own two eyes..."

Hong Tianyi continued to banter with Zhang Yi for a bit, but their conversation came to an abrupt halt when Instructor Li Qiantian entered. As always, the instructor’s mere presence was enough to quiet the other students.

As captain of the Tianya Academy team, Zhang Yi stepped forward to report the attendance count to Instructor Li Qiantian. Afterward, the instructor began to announce the rewards for the students who had passed the internal assessment mission.

"We’ll go from last to first, as usual."

"Wan Chongying, you may choose any one Five-star Common Quality Divine Domain Card, plus 500 Points."

"..."

"Zhou Zongcheng, you may choose any one Five-star Rare Quality Divine Domain Card, plus 1,000 Points."

"Hong Tianyi, you may choose any one Five-star Exceptional Quality Divine Domain Card, plus 1,500 Points."

"Lu Mei, you may choose any one Five-star Unrivaled Quality Divine Domain Card, plus 2,000 Points."

"Zhang Yi, you may choose any one Five-star Unrivaled Quality Divine Domain Card, plus 2,000 Points."

Instructor Li Qiantian read out the entire list of rewards, but he had only called out nine names.

This confirmed Zhang Yi’s suspicion. It seems Wan Zhixuan really is gone.
