Zhou Yi continued to wait.
So advanced learners passed by or inquired, but they did not seem to intend to apply for jobs; they rely gathered so employnt information.
Liang Xing explained this.
"Chairman, the longer the advanced learners practice in Dragon Palace, the greater the enhancents and advancents they receive. Apart from the most skilled group, the majority intentionally delay their graduation, which is a common scenario nowadays."
"If one can complete the second stage of training, there is a chance to be selected as the Dragon's Inheritor, and receive the power bestowed by Lord Dragon. Of course, it's even better for those in the third stage."
"Every advanced learner in Dragon Palace definitely wants to complete all three stages of training."
Zhou Yi asked, "What about you? Why didn't you challenge the second stage?"
"It's too difficult..."
Liang Xing sheepishly replied, "I'm not an enhancer, my innate conditions are much worse. Energy, physical strength, reactions, resistance to fatigue are all at least one level weaker than those of an enhancer, Guangna Species."
"Although I fortunately got decent results in the first stage through effort, the graduation requirents for second-stage trainees are very high. With my physical condition, I simply can't do the dangerous experints."
Zhou Yi was curious, "Your father is a doctor; didn't he ever consider performing an enhancer organ transplant on you?"
"He thought about it... but later he lost all the money on a gamble."
Liang Xing scratched his head, "After that, as I got older, the surgery prices soared higher, and the difficulty increased too, along with lengthy recovery periods and demanding physical talents. I inherently have poor health conditions; my father told that I am prone to rejection reactions and my blood is prone to allergies, making it very difficult to find suitable enhancer organs."
"Even if I was lucky enough to gather the surgery fees. But entering the adaptation period for the organ transplant, it would be even more difficult to keep up with various progressions in Dragon Palace, even graduating from the first stage is difficult."
So, he completely abandoned that idea and accepted his identity as an ordinary person.
Zhou Yi then thought of Qin Mo, the middle-aged man who invented Jade Soup. Da Vinci perford an enhancent surgery on him, and just the materials and equipnt costs were 800 Light Seeds, completely out of reach for an ordinary person with no background.
"Chairman, completing the third stage of training allows one to be selected as a lecturer to work long-term here. This is the highest career aspiration everyone dreams of, representing the greatest recognition from Dragon Palace for an advanced learner."
Liang Xing continued, "There are very few advanced learners in Dragon Palace because the entrance exam is quite difficult... and they still need to earn enough credits in various subjects, which is much harder than schools in other cities outside."
"If one is highly skilled, they could go to more prosperous and safe places like Snow County, Mirror City, and Holy Mountain for advanced training, and find jobs more easily."
"Those who intend to seek jobs often go outside to Zone 7, Segnt 16 to find opportunities, and not necessarily stay inside Dragon Palace... In short, after such screening, there are actually very few suitable candidates left here."
Zhou Yi and Liang Xing chatted about the situation in Dragon Palace.
After a while.
Finally, the second sincere job applicant appeared.
The visitor was a Bone Man wrapped in black tape.
"My na is Xie Dongshan, and my area of advanced studies is biological functional materials, I graduated from the second stage, and Lord Dragon rated B . I wonder if the teachers here are required to teach craftsn or apprentices?"
Zhou Yi told him, "Neither, primarily underage children."
The other party paused, "I see, teaching children... May I ask about the salary?"
"Annual salary is 100 Light Seeds, one-year probation period, and the salary during probation is 80 Light Seeds."
Compared to Liang Xing, the Bone Man clearly had experienced social interactions.
It imdiately began inquiring about various details.
"Are there specific requirents and standards for teaching students?"
"The basic standard is to be diligent and responsible; the highest standard is for students to like and support you, to be interested in the knowledge you impart, and to develop a spontaneous interest and enthusiasm for research."
Zhou Yi said, "Mushroom Forest Primary School is in its initial stages, primarily focusing on enlightennt and basic education, but there will also be exams. Specific standards will need to be drafted by the teachers together."
Bone Man reflected for a mont after listening: "Mr. Zhou, the area I specialize in is... biological materials. Can these children really understand it?"
"That depends on your ability."
Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Even if they only understand a little, that would be good."
Bone Man nodded: "Understood."
"Actually, your specialty is very well aligned with our company."
Zhou Yi said seriously: "Our company uses a large amount of biological materials, including gliders, refrigeration boxes, Insect Armor, and our Dead Sea Fruit, all of which have further developntal value. If you can continue to research in this area, you can apply to for funding, and the resulting scientific achievents will enjoy patent sharing and invention rewards."
"Our company has currently established the Wasteland Invention Award..."
"Additionally, our company also offers free dical benefits, including specialized Bone n doctors, and costic surgery to repair any fissures in your body... It seems these tapes look like bandaging you've done on your body?"
Xie Jinsan was astonished, "There are even specialized doctors for Bone n... Yes, I've conducted many experints, and my body has suffered so degree of wear and cracking."
"Chairman, I sincerely hope to work for your company!"
Bone Man bowed: "I hope you will consider ."
Xie Jinsan is from Dan City in Heavenly Kingdom; he worked there as a craftsman for a long ti, saving enough money to buy a ticket to travel overseas to Dragon Palace.
Zhou Yi was curious: "I rember Dan City is famous for its prison; it's not a small place. The Heavenly Kingdom offers significant developnt opportunities, have you considered finding employnt back in your hotown?"
"Not to hide from you, I actually want to return, but... I'm not a Heavenly Country Citizen, it's difficult to find a respectable job if I go back."
Xie Jinsan said sowhat helplessly: "Within the territory of Heavenly Kingdom, only 10% of the population are Heavenly Country Citizens. The vast majority are like , having only residency rights but not citizenship, unable to enjoy many benefits like education, dical care, and tax relief..."
Zhou Yi frowned: "Bone n are Guangna Species and still can't beco citizens?"
"It's difficult. Heavenly Kingdom doesn't lack Guangna Species, the population is also large, and labor resources are abundant. To apply for citizenship, various conditions need to be t."
Bone Man explained, "Dragon Palace is recognized by Heavenly Kingdom. I graduated second class, and I need to work in Heavenly Kingdom for five years to apply for citizenship; only third-class graduates can obtain citizenship imdiately."
"The process takes about three to five years, plus the work period, at least eight years before I can beco an official citizen. During this ti, I can only do ordinary jobs, and endure."
"Of course, if you are very wealthy, there are ways. But I don't have that much money. It's easier for Bone Man rchants, we craftsn accumulate wealth very slowly."
Zhou Yi was amazed.
Getting a citizenship card in Heavenly Kingdom is too difficult.
No wonder he heard that Qian Su is a Heavenly Country Citizen, and Tianjin Knight Cui Mao's attitude was very cautious.
"Also, even if I go to Heavenly Kingdom for employnt, there are difficulties in my field... Biological materials... probably only those with at least a third-class degree have a chance to be recognized and enter the real research field."
"Otherwise, it's good enough for to get into a factory, competing with those in chanical and electrical life, I'm quite at a disadvantage. After all, it's not a dominant specialty like business or dicine."
Xie Jinsan's voice was filled with bitterness.
Beside him, Liang Xing couldn't help but say, "That's so true, so true! It's tough for us with common specialties, thought graduating from Dragon Palace would change things, but it turned out not to be the case..."
Zhou Yi listened with a sigh.
Unexpectedly, in the Wasteland era, biochemical environntal materials are still unpopular.
Sorrow in one word.
But it's okay.
The Wasteland Company wanted it!
To take down Xie Jinsan.
Zhou Yi continued fly fishing, waiting for volunteers to take the bait.
But he also pondered that in the future, he needed to preheat things, to notify the soon-to-be-graduates from Dragon Palace about the spring recruitnt in advance, and openly announce the salary and positions. This way, it would be much easier to pick people when the ti cos.
Just then.
Zhou Yi suddenly noticed that quite a number of people had gathered around unknowingly, including human enhancers, various sizes of Guangna Species, and electrochanical lives.
These people were gathering more and more, but they didn't seem like applicants, they seed to be waiting for soone.
What's going on?
Even recruitnt events need to stir excitent?
Zhou Yi was a bit puzzled at the ti.
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light lit up in the sky, swirling over the entire college.
The golden light descended, enveloping Zhou Yi directly like a gigantic spotlight.
Liang Xing and Xie Dongshan exclaid: "Lord Dragon!"
The onlookers cheered even louder.
"Fight, fight!"
"Blood flow into a river, blood flow into a river!"
"Make it quick, do it!"
"Big bets, small bets, no more bets!"
Inside the golden light area.
Zhou Yi observed the Concept Life in mid-air.
[Alert] showed that the opponent was covered in purple light, indeed an A-level life.
All other features of the Dragon were accurate, with four legs and five claws, body covered with scales, and adorned with golden light that exuded grandeur.
There was just one small problem.
The Dragon in front of him wasn't a three-dinsional structure, but a planar structure, like a laser image printed in the air, a dynamic two-dinsional image.
"Mr. Zhou's na, I have long heard of it."
The voice of the Dragon was thick and deep, like rumbling thunder.
"I'd like to have a duel with you."
Zhou Yi was stunned.
He ca to recruit teachers, not expecting the Dragon to challenge him.
No wonder the nearby spectators, they probably heard so rumors.
The Dragon slowly said, "In the safety zone, as long as challenges are issued and accepted, unrestricted hand-to-hand combat can begin. Once one side surrenders or dies, the entire fight ends."
"If Mr. Zhou wins, I'll give you 1 million Light Seeds."
"If I win, I will randomly take away one ability from Mr. Zhou—this is also my 'Nine Changes' trait."
"Please rest assured, with the Great Holy Spirit supervising, I cannot violate my own words and rules, otherwise I won't be able to return to the Great Holy Spirit."
"What do you think, Mr. Zhou?"
Originally, Zhou Yi wanted to refuse.
He was not prepared to challenge the arena; he was rely here to hire a few primary school teachers.
But then he thought again.
Perhaps, it wouldn't be too bad.
[Nine Changes] can dismantle abilities from other lives and implant them for personal use, that is, to randomly take away one ability.
Zhou Yi speculated.
The Dragon must be targeting his ability to communicate with Building Life.
His affairs in Golden Elephant Valley must have been known by many interested parties.
But the communication capability ca from the body of the White Suanni, not a skill.
His own abilities included [Alert], [Stretching], [Berserk], and [Life Strike], each installed on his machine body and Xiao Fu.
All are market-available combat types.
Except, the special elental ability [Radio].
Even if the Radio was taken away, it wouldn't greatly impact him; instead, it could serve as a chance for recalibration, a search for new elents again.
Warlord's lessons made Zhou Yi realize that using a smartphone as an elental material was difficult to gather and might almost certainly require initiating the manufacturing of smartphones to evolve further in the later stages.
If he lost and the Dragon took any ability, it wouldn't be a loss.
If he won.
Then he could fulfill his promise to Yuan Xiao.
With his mind made up, Zhou Yi said, "Sure. But I want a different condition."
"Go ahead."
"If I happen to win, I don't want these Light Seeds; just hand over Nian Gao to ."
"That Angel of Death?"
"Yes."
"Deal."
Zhou Yi reached out and grabbed, turning his Witch Hunter into a silver double-barreled shotgun now held in his hands.
