Chapter 320 - Superb Dawn College!
Chapter 320 Superb Dawn College!
The City of Dawn had more than one million population. It occupied a large area and was divided into 12 districts.
The city was developing towards the mountains on the south side. The residents of the new district were staying on the mountain. If their houses had a second floor, and they looked to the north, the entire city would be in sight.
William did not want to destroy the structure of the trees.
Only the trees that had to be cut down were removed, and the grassland was flattened. The newly built districts were beautified with greenery.
Even though William had not become the champion of the Magic Conference, the news of his victory over the Viscount of Darkness spread like a wild storm in the entire southern region.
In particular, the top four power centers publicized how terrifying and powerful the Viscount of Darkness was.
Under the contrast of the Viscount of Darkness, William was no longer just the top Advanced professional in the southern region. He had reached a level higher than that.
What about Delosis? Was he the top Advanced professional in the southern region?
Apologies, nobody mentioned it…
The commoners of the City of Dawn decided to celebrate Lord’s William glory.
The rich and wealthy organized banquets, while the poor bought cheap magical lamps to place in front of their windows as a form of celebration.
The city was filled with excitement and joy.
It was the case because this was a new city that heavily depended on William Blackleaf.
As long as the city lord never fell and the development continued to happen, the City of Dawn would maintain its prosperous ascent.
A day after he returned, William paced around in his home of 3.5 million square kilometers, looking very proud.
It could not be helped.
He was awesome.
All the commoners, professionals, and even merchants from abroad had to give way to the most impressive city lord.
He was neither a child of a government official nor a scion of a wealthy family. He was the King in the City of Dawn.
Even if the Emperor arrived, he would have to give way to William.
When the commoners encountered William, they gave him various titles.
“Our respect to the city lord.”
“Our respect to Prince William.”
“Oh God! The city lord, Prince William, the Great Dragon Slayer, passed by my tavern. Get some fine wine to celebrate,” the owner of a tavern that was located next to the city lord’s palace hollered.
After hearing those titles and upon meeting William, a little foreign boy exclaimed, “Oh God! Are you the Viscount of Thunder? You look powerful.”
“Nonsense.” His uncle hurriedly covered his mouth and said in a low voice, “The Viscount of Thunder is a title for some bigwigs. The city lord may be the reincarnation of Thunder God. Don’t use the wrong title. Otherwise, it will cause resentment from Prince William.”
The little boy nodded but looked confused. He asked in bewilderment, “Uncle, why did we come to the City of Dawn?”
“We’re here to find jobs. You have good endowments. Let’s see if you can enroll in the Dawn Battle Energy College.” The middle-aged man sighed. It was not easy to bring up a kid, especially when he had been born out of wedlock.
“Battle Energy College?” The little boy’s eyes widened. He was a citizen of the Black Lava Dukedom, which was not far from the City of Dawn. He had never heard about the battle energy college in the City of Dawn.
It was a legendary battle energy college or magic skills college only found in knight novels.
The little boy only possessed a single novel about the battle energy college…
Every time he read that novel, which showed how the protagonist, a dismal student, could become a legend step by step, he would be overwhelmed by surges of enthusiasm.
But the colleges were only found in empires and kingdoms…
The middle-aged man snorted. “It’s not only the Battle Energy College but also the Magic Skills College!”
“Wow, it sounds impressive. Will I learn magic or battle energy in the future?”
“God knows! But I heard that the city lord will serve as the dean of the two colleges. He will screen each student personally and choose the appropriate college for him.” The middle-aged man’s eyes glimmered with intensity. It was the key reason he brought the little boy here.
Regardless of which college the little boy would be enrolled in, he would be regarded as the disciple of Lord of Dawn…
It was no relationship in terms of bloodline.
However, in the Legendary continent that highly valued the relationship between teachers and students, the graduates of Dawn College would become the true descendants of Prince William.
Regardless of how the future would pan out, the graduates did not have to worry about employment. Supporting their families would not be an issue.
The majority of the commoners wanted to be professionals not because they wanted to kill and make a name for themselves, their ambition was often small.
Their main goal was to earn money to let their families live a good life.
Only when the professionals became more powerful, would they become ambitious.
Of course, it was all relative…
The Advanced professionals of the City of Dawn enjoyed superiority.
But as for the ones in the Human empires, they were insignificant, and hence, they were not ambitious.
The news had been widely publicized after William returned to the City of Dawn yesterday.
The middle-aged man had obtained the news on the same day, because he was originally an Intermediate professional.
Previously, he had been a senior captain of a legion of the Black Lava Dukedom. But when the Black Lava Dukedom gave up its military power and William deployed the disbanded soldiers in the Dawn Army, the middle-aged man was not conscripted because of his inferior endowments.
He had returned home and set up a blacksmith shop.
The little boy called him uncle.
Sigh!
The middle-aged man preferred not to bring up the complicated relationship.
Anyway, the middle-aged man would never let his biological son continue to be abused by the drunkard, nor did he want to spend his whole life in the backward countryside.
After all, the man had witnessed the Dawn Army several times…
The military discipline, orderly formations, and indescribable equipment…
They were very impressive.
In any case, he was convinced that the future of the City of Dawn would be brilliant.
He had to join the City of Dawn as early as possible. Otherwise, he would not be able to afford even the cheapest house.
As long as the little boy could enroll in the Dawn College and successfully graduate, whether he would be conscripted into the regular army or into the Dawn Mercenary Team, there was no way he would be left unemployed.
Because the Lord of Dawn had clearly stated that anyone who enrolled in the Dawn College would be a citizen of the City of Dawn.
There were many employment opportunities for the graduates to choose from!
Even if the graduates did not wish to stay in the City of Dawn and wanted to venture outside, it was alright. As long as they had excellent academic performance, they would receive support from Dawn College.
The graduates would receive equipment, secret manuals, and allowances. If they encountered danger, they could make use of the reputation of the City of Dawn.
That was right.
The benefits were generous.
It was a superb college that attracted many good students.
There were many available careers for the graduates to choose from.
Regardless of what attributes the students had, instructors of similar attributes were available to mentor them.
As long as they could be selected for enrollment, tuition was provided free of charge.
Excellent students would even receive scholarships!
As long as destitute students worked hard, they could earn subsidies for their families.
The enrollment was available to everyone in the Legendary continent.
“MD, tell me, who can refuse such a superb college? My son has already made me pay for a few potions. I’ll have to see how he performs in the admission exercise.” The middle-aged man remembered what his old comrades told him.
He was convinced.
The two colleges were located in the mountains south of the City of Dawn.
The City of Dawn was going to establish two huge urban areas commonly known as college districts, which could accommodate up to 100,000 teachers and students.
When this piece of news was released, the first region to obtain the news was the southern region. Even if other regions received the news, the inhabitants were not interested.
No matter what, Dawn College was an attractive college for admission.
Old Band, the space enchanter, had been appointed as the deputy dean of the Magic Skills College.
The Grandmaster time elemental warrior, Old Leather, was the deputy dean of the Battle Energy College.
Tsk, tsk!
One belonged to the time element while the other was space.
Although the other mentors were only Advanced professionals, they could not stand the ordinary and unawakened students, who did not have battle energy and magic power.
When the colleges of the kingdoms heard about the news, they cursed and swore!
Time and space!
Why were the two elements that were as rare as protected species were being taught in the City of Dawn?
The reputation of the City of Dawn surged when William revealed the time element attributes of Old Leather.
The propaganda slogan of Dawn College was even more impressive.
“Don’t let your children who can become future legends, be farmers in the desolate villages.”
“The Lord of Dawn, who was recognized as the reincarnation of Thunder God by the top four power centers, will be screening the endowments of each student.”
Since William was recognized as the reincarnation of Thunder God, he would be able to recognize the endowments of the students.
It was pointless to ask why.
Even the players could not figure out why insight was activated when William’s left hand was placed on the NPC’s body.
William arrived at the entrance of the fortune-telling hut. He stroked his chin as he thought, “Is everyone saying that I’m impressive? If I don’t make use of my popularity, won’t I be letting down the publicity departments of the top four power centers?
“Selling the idea that I’m the reincarnation of Thunder God?
“Of course!
“I’ll see if I can recruit protagonist-type professionals.
“Mmp, I’ll see for myself how great the effects of my reputation is.
“I would concede defeat if I’m unable to enrage the leaders of the Palace of Darkness with my antics.” William snorted. He was not infuriated by malicious publicity because he could make use of the situation.
He understood that opportunities could be created in any crisis.
His current predicament would also be an opportunity for him.
In particular, the City of Dawn was not only recruiting students but also mentors and professionals from other occupations.
The previous occupation hall was still intact.
But it was no longer an important building as it had been catered for the players to change occupation.
The players could experience the seven years of compulsory education in the magical fantasy version if they could pay the fees.
William was willing to flatten an entire mountain to provide a large college for the players. There would be a minor annual examination and a major examination once every three years.
“Get in here. What are you doing outside?”
“Oh, I was just thinking about something…”
The door creaked open, and William entered the hut.
