Chapter 1214.

Wang Dust had actually underestimated the impact of his 289 points in the martial arts exam.

In the entire Azure Star cluster, there were over a million third year students who took the Higher Martial Exam, and this score of his ranked third!

Although the score Wang Dust was informed of from his personal terminal was not ranked, it was not at all difficult for all the upper echelons of Azure Star who were concerned about this Higher Martial Examination to want to get more detailed data, even including the video of the examination.

Wang Dust naturally entered the sights of many people.

His third rating could be extraordinary because not only the first and second in front of him, but even the dozens of candidates behind him all came from powerful families with rich experience in surviving and hunting on the Eco-Experiment Star.

True fairness never existed, the Empire’s Higher Martial Examination could only guarantee procedural fairness, and could not allow the sons of noble clansmen to stand on the same starting line as the sons of commoners.

In this way, Wang Chen’s 289 points were extremely eye-catching.

The gold content was very high.

Zhou Jun had only jumped the gun, and the solicitation from the Tianfang Group was actually not slow at all.

“Sorry.”

Wang Dust replied, “I have already agreed to join the Azure Star Cluster Garrison Legion.”

As they were both foxes of a thousand years, there was no need to play chatty, he was never one to think twice, much less to wait for a price, so he gave a direct rebuff.

“Is it because of the guaranteed spot in the Garrison Legion?”

However, this Tian Fang Group’s Personnel Assistant Manager had no intention of giving up, “Student Lu Yuan, commissioning is not the best option, with your talent and strength, why would you want to start from the bottom of the Imperial Army?”

“We, the Tianfang Group, can help you enter Shenjing University!”

Wang Dust believed that Tian Fang Group had such energy, but what about the price he had to pay for it?

Wang Dust smiled and said, “Sorry, I’ve already signed the contract.”

Actually didn’t sign it, but it was most suitable as an excuse.

The other party really died and ended the call after a few polite words.

On his way back to the dormitory, Wang Dust received several more contacts one after another, all of which were invitations from a certain group.

This had to make him marvel at the pervasiveness of these plutocratic groups.

However, probably because of the number of rebuffs, by the next day there were no more of the same contact messages coming in, allowing Wang Duan to regain his peace and quiet.

After another day, he applied for his new identity card through the internet.

He became an Imperial citizen with the right to vote and be elected!

That night, still in the Blue Right Caf茅 across from the academy, Wang Dust signed a formal commissioning contract with Zhou Jun.

He received a guaranteed spot in the Azure Star Cluster Garrison Legion, and at the same time became a reserve sergeant of this legion.

In other words, from this moment onwards, Wang Chen was considered half a soldier!

“Welcome to the Imperial Army!”

Zhou Jun extended his hand to Wang Dust, “Trust me, you won’t regret it.”

Wang Dust shook this Major Captain’s hand, “Thank you!”

The most direct benefit of joining the Azure Star Cluster Garrison Legion was getting an enrollment spot in the Empire’s First Higher Military Academy.

Secondly, the four-year tuition fee was completely free, and every month, he would also receive a living allowance, which was enough to cover Wang Chen’s daily expenses in this institution of higher learning.

Not only that, the legion would also give Wang Duan scholarships of varying amounts depending on his performance in the academy!

Zhou Jun said, “Lu Yuan, no, Wang Dust, which academic department do you want to enroll in?”

Wang Chen, who had already regained his real name, replied without thinking, “The Mech Combat Department.”

The Department of Machine Combat was the Department of Mecha Combat, one of the hottest and most popular departments in the Higher Military Academy, second only to the Department of Command, and the competition was fierce.

However, Wang Chen was a special commissioned student, so he naturally had the power to pick the department.

Zhou Jun did not have any surprises and smiled, “Good.”

With Wang Dust’s combat talent, it would be a waste not to pick the Machine Combat Department, and he would have had to persuade him.

Now it would save him the trouble.

This Lieutenant Commander took out a gift he had already prepared, “Congratulations on coming of age, Commodore Wang Dust!”

The lowest rank in the Imperial Army was Private, then Private, Corporal, Sergeant, Staff Sergeant, then Lieutenant, School and General, and the highest was Marshal.

When Wang Dust got the First Military Academy’s sponsorship, he automatically became a member of the Garrison Legion, as well as a Reserve Sergeant.

The status of Reserve Sergeant was not part of the official rank of “Sergeant”, but neither did it belong to the lowest level of the military, so the status was actually very delicate.

Once Wang Chen graduated from the First Military Academy and joined the garrison, he would start out as a corporal or even a sergeant!

Zhou Jun’s gift to Wang Chen was a personal terminal of the latest model.

Wang Chuan has been using the cheapest basic model, and has been using it for years, no matter whether it’s function expansion or running speed, there’s no way to compare it with the new one.

This adult gift is still very practical and shows Zhou Jun’s intention.

Wang Duan was not polite and expressed his gratitude again.

Unfortunately, Zhou Jun was on a mission and left in a hurry after delivering the gift, agreeing to keep in touch via the internet in the future.

Next, it was Wang Chen’s vacation.

All schools in the empire, regardless of primary and higher education, had two long vacations every year, the summer vacation and the New Year’s vacation.

Although in the interstellar era, the concept of “summer vacation” was completely outdated, and was not applicable to all inhabited planets, as there were some planets that had four seasons in a year like spring, and there were also planets that were frozen all year round.

It’s just that this old term has been preserved and passed on by the Empire.

And during this two-month summer vacation, Wang Dust didn’t have the comfortable idea of lying flat and relaxing, instead he scheduled every day to the fullest.

Refining and strengthening his body, condensing his spiritual energy, and practicing sword arts were his daytime schedule.

At night, Wang Chen entered the Star Ocean Network.

Making money.

He had found a doorway to earn star dollars that suited him well, and that was the Star Ocean Arena!

Wang Chuan had played in this virtual arena for a few days and realized that he could make head-to-head betting challenges in it.

That is to say, he bet on himself and bet on himself to win.

Then as long as someone met the challenge and defeated their opponent, then they would be able to obtain the bets placed by the other party.

Although the betting limit for this kind of betting challenge was not high, at most only 1,000 star dollars, which belonged to the nature of entertainment rather than gambling.

However, for Wang Chen, being able to sharpen his sword skills and spiritual energy as well as earning star dollars was simply a one-two punch.

Earlier on, he had sensed that fighting against people in the Star Ocean Arena could improve his spiritual energy.

Although this kind of enhancement was extremely weak, it could not be denied that a little goes a long way.

Spiritual energy was the very origin of spiritual energy!

And in turn, the stronger his spiritual energy was, then the sharper and better his reactions would be in the virtual space.

A month down the line, Wang Chen’s Imperial Bank deposit account had hundreds of thousands of extra star dollars.

This was still what he had saved after purchasing quite a few mutated biological products!
