Chapter 35: You Will Definitely Become Someone Important

Yandongting's gaze instantly became incredibly sharp: "Cheng Han, what conditions do you want?"

A palpable aura of power emanated from the vice principal, clearly a secret technique that only warriors could use to directly suppress the opponent's spirit.

Cheng Han felt his breath hitch, as if he were carrying a heavy burden on his shoulders.

He decisively touched the residual imprint in his spiritual realm with his mind. As the purple light circulated, the heavy pressure disappeared in an instant.

Cheng Han straightened his back and countered with a question, "How much can the Second Battle Group offer?"

He knew that the benefits he could obtain depended on his performance. In other words, the assessment had already begun from the moment the other party asked the question.

Yandongting, first showing surprise on his face, then smiled, "It seems that I have greatly underestimated you."

Cheng Han didn't modestly decline, "During the meditation class earlier, Teacher Qiu said I was hiding my abilities. I think his judgment is accurate."

The implication was that his strength was greater than what he had shown and therefore deserved better treatment.

Yandongting neither confirmed nor denied it, "Is that so?"

Cheng Han's tone was full of confidence, "A few days ago during the grand parade, you demonstrated the 'Nine Elements Strengthening Technique.' Although the school never publicized it, I could tell that this set of techniques can activate a small amount of source energy."

Yandongting questioned, "Many people know this, like your classmate Wantengjiao. Perhaps you accidentally overheard it."

Cheng Han didn't argue and continued, "The sixth technique is called the 'Crane's Cry.' At the time, I didn't understand why it was named that."

"After practicing it at home for several days, every time I reached this technique, I felt a faint warmth between my chest and abdomen..."

He positioned his legs in a stance similar to a horse stance, with both arms in front of his chest, making a "holding a ball with both hands" motion, and shouted, "Crane!"

At the same time, the imprint of his source perception in his spiritual sea instantly doubled in size.

In the next instant, a very obscure wave suddenly surged from Cheng Han's body.

"Boom! Boom!"

Several strange explosions came from between Cheng Han's chest and abdomen, sounding like the clear cry of a crane.

Yandongting's face was filled with astonishment.

And at the door of the small compartment, Wantengjiao secretly observed this scene, her pretty face also filled with surprise.

Cheng Han stood up straight and spoke confidently, "At that time, I had a premonition that if I used the source perception imprint to activate source energy and then practiced the Crane's Cry, it would have extraordinary effects."

"I tried it just now, and it turned out exactly as I expected. No wonder this technique is called the Crane's Cry."

In fact, this was one of the many things he had recently researched about the Nine Elements Strengthening Technique using the All-Knowing Eye.

Yandongting looked incredulous, "Did you really comprehend this on your own?"

Cheng Han blinked, "As you should know, I am just an orphan with no one to rely on."

The meaning behind this statement was that even if I wanted to find someone to teach me, I couldn't find anyone. Besides relying on myself, who else can I rely on?

Yandongting sincerely praised, "Cheng Han, without the assistance of Body Tempering elixirs, you were able to produce the sound of a crane with the Crane's Cry. That is truly remarkable."

He paused for a moment and added, "If I didn't know that you had just completed the seal, I would never believe that this was your first complete version of the Crane's Cry. Back then, I was far inferior to you."

Cheng Han put on a shy appearance, "You're too kind."

After hearing this, Yandongting sighed, "When it's time to fight, you don't give an inch, and when it's time to retreat, you are humble and polite. You, young man, will definitely become someone important in the future."

Cheng Han didn't know how to respond, so he could only smile silently.

After pondering for a while, Yandongting redefined the conditions, "Alright, let's increase the signing bonus from sixty silver coins to one hundred and fifty silver coins, and raise the monthly subsidy from thirty silver coins to eighty silver coins."

"The Battle Group usually provides the lowest level Body Tempering elixirs to the school for free. I will apply to the Battle Group to provide you with some second-level elixirs, with a proportion of no less than thirty percent."

Yandongting's expression was sincere, "I won't hide it from you. With my personal authority, these are the best conditions I can offer. What do you think?"

This statement implied that if you want to negotiate for better conditions, it might not be impossible.

Cheng Han didn't haggle anymore and calmly said, "I'm willing to sign the contract."

For Qiu Yuan, he is very sorry.

But this person couldn't withstand the pressure and couldn't persist until the end, he was helpless.

It's rare to have a win-win solution in the world. Cheng Han cannot fulfill everyone's expectations, so he can only be true to himself.

At this moment.

Wan Teng Jiao walked over with a document: "Uncle Dongting, I found a draft."

She glanced at Cheng Han and changed the subject: "According to the conditions you just promised, many clauses in the contract need to be modified."

Yan Dongting chuckled: "Jiao Jiao, I hate dealing with paperwork. I'll trouble you to make the modifications."

Wan Teng Jiao didn't refuse: "Okay."

She picked up a pen and made some changes quickly.

Yan Dongting checked it briefly and signed his name on the draft.

Cheng Han also wrote down his full name straightforwardly.

Each page of the draft was divided into two parts, with exactly the same content, which was equivalent to "two copies."

Wan Teng Jiao picked up a paper cutter and cut it in half from the middle, handing one of the halves to Cheng Han.

Cheng Han looked through the contract and felt a bit emotional.

In the eyes of ordinary people, a monthly salary of eighty silver coins is definitely an enviable high income. And he only demonstrated the Minghe Style and easily secured the "big contract."

Yan Dongting glanced at the pair of young men and women and suddenly smiled: "You two seem quite compatible."

Wan Teng Jiao's pretty face instantly turned red.

Looking closely at her expression, it seemed that she was only shy and didn't resist much.

Cheng Han almost choked.

I haven't even graduated yet, and you're already thinking about matchmaking?

Is this what a vice principal should be doing?

*

In the next half hour.

Yan Dongting voluntarily imparted a lot of knowledge about cultivation.

As the vice principal, he didn't need to do this himself. He could just assign a teacher. But he had a friendly intention and explained it with exceptional patience.

Yan Dongting talked for a long time and finally said, "Cheng Han, I can guarantee that with your talent, you will definitely become a warrior within eight years."

This was high praise.

According to statistical data, even with the condensation of the Source Sensation Seal, the probability of becoming a warrior was only one-sixteenth. But this statement included the word "definitely," showing how much confidence this person had in Cheng Han.

Cheng Han replied earnestly, "I will work hard."

He muttered in his heart: Eight years is too long, right?

Yan Dongting turned to look at the clock on the wall and smiled, "It's almost time for class to end. Let's stop here today. I should go explain to the principal."

The vice principal greeted them, pushed the door, and walked out.

Wan Teng Jiao gestured, "Let's go back to the classroom."

Cheng Han nodded, "Okay!"

The two of them left the meditation room and walked side by side for a while. Suddenly, they saw that the corridor outside their classroom was crowded with students from other classes.

Wan Teng Jiao covered her mouth and laughed, "Cheng Han, you're famous now!"

Cheng Han sighed helplessly.

It's just forming seals, is it necessary to make such a big fuss?

Wan Teng Jiao said leisurely, "Before you, no one had ever formed seals during observation. You did something that others couldn't do. You are definitely a legendary figure in No. 15 Middle School."
