23: Super Seminary

After Song Ming cleared the hidden stage of the Demon City Dungeon, it provided him with another 1000 Merit Points.

He was just about to go to the Hall of Merit to redeem his rewards.

At this moment, both skill books and class change items were what he needed most.

However, what he didn't expect was that Zhong Dafei and the others were so enthusiastic, so he had to stay a little longer.

“Student Song Ming, don't be in a hurry to leave. Our Director Chang will be here soon. He really wants to meet you!”

“Alright!”

Song Ming agreed.

At this moment, Jiang Rong, who had been silently by his side, spoke, “Song Ming, congratulations, my mission is also complete, and I'll be returning to the Academy now!”

She came here specifically to close the Abyss Gate in this place.

Now that her objective had been achieved, she naturally had no need to stay here any longer.

What's more, she felt that if she kept following Song Ming, her mentality would definitely collapse.

Therefore, she immediately proposed to leave.

“En, I understand!” Song Ming nodded.

Jiang Rong saw his reaction was so indifferent and immediately felt a little displeased.

This great beauty had followed him all this way.

Now that she was leaving, he didn't react at all.

“Hey, I'm leaving, you should at least react a little!”

Song Ming looked at her in confusion, “It's not a life-and-death separation, just returning to school. What kind of reaction do you want me to have?”

“Hmph, idiot, I'm not talking to you anymore!”

Jiang Rong turned her head away in anger.

Song Ming didn't take it to heart, only feeling that this woman was inexplicable.

“Forget it, getting angry with you is useless. Take out your Demon Hunter's Badge!” Jiang Rong finally couldn't help but say.

Song Ming took it out.

Jiang Rong then directly transferred all the merit she had accumulated during this period to Song Ming.

It totaled over three hundred Merit Points.

It was the merit she had gained from hunting evil demons in the past few days and hadn't gone to the Hall of Merit to redeem.

Now that she was leaving, it was just right to give it to Song Ming.

After all, if it weren't for him, she would never have been able to complete the mission of closing the Abyss Gate here.

“Why give it to me?” Song Ming asked.

“Don't worry, you helped me complete the mission, and I'll have my own rewards when I return to school. Consider these my compensation to you!”

“Are there many such missions in Divine Xia Academy?”

“Of course, and the rewards are usually very generous!”

“I understand!”

“What, do you want to come to our Divine Xia Academy? With your strength, junior, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm really looking forward to it!”

“En!”

“Then it's settled, see you at Divine Xia Academy. Oh, and here's a bonus piece of information.

There's a Supergod Academy in Divine Xia Academy. If you can, you must get in!”

“Supergod Academy?”

“Yes, besides that, Divine Xia Academy also controls many small Secret Realms and even medium Secret Realms, which are most suitable for a leveling maniac like you!”

“Okay, I'll remember that!”

Jiang Rong then nodded in satisfaction, waved her hand, and was about to leave.

Zhong Dafei, who was beside her, immediately said, “Young Miss Jiang, if possible, please don't reveal the news of Song Ming clearing the hidden stage for the next period of time!”

“Okay, I won't say anything!”

Jiang Rong readily agreed, then walked towards the outside of the rift valley.

Not long after she left, another group of people arrived outside the rift valley.

Walking in front was a short, somewhat plump middle-aged man.

Beside him was a dignified middle-aged man dressed in the uniform of the Demon Suppression Army.

The two came directly in front of Song Ming, and one of them excitedly grabbed his hand.

“Student Song Ming, hello, I am Director Chang Dong of the Yunhai City Pollution Prevention and Control Bureau, and this gentleman beside me is Hall Master Ren Long of the Yunhai City Hall of Merit!”

As soon as these words came out, the Professionals who were still a bit bewildered were all shocked.

“What's going on? Which leader from above came to our Yunhai City that Director Chang and Hall Master Ren came to meet him together!”

“No, what did that young man do? Two big shots are so excited?”

“What else could it be? If you can speedrun a Hell dungeon in five minutes, and then clear the hidden stage in one go, you can even make the big shot light your cigarette!”

“My goodness, I was playing the dungeon just fine, and I was kicked out directly. So it was because of him!”

Everyone spoke one after another, and their eyes looking at Song Ming were full of envy.

They wished they could take his place!

“Director Chang, Hall Master Ren, hello!” Song Ming said politely.

“Good, good, good, truly a hero emerging from youth!” Chang Dong couldn't help but praise.

Then he looked at the original location of the Abyss Gate, which was now empty.

His face was even more joyful, “I wonder if Student Song Ming has any intention of joining our Pollution Management Bureau?”

Hall Master Ren, who was beside him, coughed a few times and quickly said, “Lao Chang, it's too early to talk about this now. Student Song Ming is still a student!”

“You're right, you're right, haha, I was too impatient!” Chang Dong laughed awkwardly.

Then he heard Ren Long continue, “Song Ming, I'm also nearing retirement age. If you can come to work at our Hall of Merit, the position of Hall Master…”

“Lao Ren, well, you're poaching openly, aren't you!” Chang Dong said angrily.

“Lao Chang, it's not that I'm telling you, but such a talent would be a waste at your bureau. Only in the Hall of Merit, under the military, can his role be perfectly utilized!”

“You… I think you need a lesson!”

“Hmph, come on then, who's afraid of you? Do you want me to let you use one hand!”

“Alright, you said it, no backing out!”

Seeing that the two big shots were about to argue over recruiting someone, Zhong Dafei immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

He quickly interjected to stop them, “Director, Hall Master, Song Ming closed the Abyss Gate, which is a great service to Yunhai City. Let's think about how to reward him!”

Chang Dong and Ren Long heard this and finally quieted down.

“By the way, you still have to take the college entrance examination, so you probably still need a place to level up.

I have an entry token for a large novice dungeon here, and I can take you there to level up right now!” Chang Dong said.

“Uh, thank you for your kind offer, Director, but I'm already level 20 and don't need to level up for now!” Song Ming said.

Chang Dong heard this and stared at Song Ming with wide eyes.

His face was full of shock.

“You… you're level 20? How so fast? It would take at least 300,000 experience to go from level 1 to level 20!”

He had originally wanted to do Song Ming a favor, but he didn't expect that the other party was already level 20.

It took him at least a year to reach level 20 back then.

How many days had passed since Song Ming's Awakening until now?

Chang Dong was numb, his scalp tingling!

Ren Long also looked at Song Ming in great surprise and couldn't help but ask, “What level was the BOSS in the hidden stage?”

“Level 30!” Song Ming replied.

“Then what level were you when you first entered the Demon City Dungeon?”

“Level 10!”

“Hiss!”

Ren Long directly gasped, his eyes wide open!

He could clear a Hell dungeon at level 10.

And even take down a level 30 BOSS!

Is this really a student?

Even he, as a Hall Master, wouldn't dare to guarantee that he could clear the hidden stage.

Song Ming did it!

Ren Long suddenly felt that perhaps he should retire early!
