1496 The Second Prince Saw Through Everything! (1)

There was complete silence after Wang Teng spoke.

Everyone stared at him, with absentminded expressions.

90%?

That was an impossible number, yet Wang Teng said it.

People who didn’t know what was going on could even think he was talking about 90 cents!

No one noticed the Crown Prince’s reaction, who was sitting some distance away. His ears twitched.

Martial warriors had a good sense of hearing.

No one had made an effort to lower their voices, so those who heard it, heard it.

There was a layer of light covering the Crown Prince’s head so no one could see his expression. However, the astonishment in his eyes was apparent.

His profit sharing ratio was… 80%!

He had lost to Wang Teng by 560 points in Zone 1, but he didn’t take it to heart because he knew it didn’t mean a thing.

However, the Virtual Universe Corporation’s actions told him that they had higher hopes for Wang Teng!

That was his first time losing while others were present.

“Repeat that. I think I didn’t hear you properly,” said the Second Prince. His gentle expression had turned a bit rigid.

Wang Teng glanced at him strangely. The Second Prince seemed to be doubting his life.

He stared at the others. All of them had the same expression.

Is the impact of 90% that big?

“Really? Wang Teng, you got 90%?” Situ Wan’er widened her eyes in shock.

“You’re not kidding, right?” Ji Haochen was shocked and bewildered.

Timothy still looked calm and composed a moment before. He had a 75% deal, so he didn’t think that 80% was much. But, when he heard 90%… he almost dropped his drink.

Song Yicheng, Lu Jing, and the others were in a worse state. Their astonishment was evident. They were floored by the revelation.

Their shares were between 40% to 50% so they felt that he could get at least 70%, given his potential. However, they had underestimated the fellow.

90%!

It was an unimaginable number!

“90% is similar to 80%,” Wang Teng said in a lighthearted tone. He was trying to be humble.

“The difference between 50% and 60%, or 60% and 70%, is indeed not too much.

“However, between 70% and 80% it’s not just a 10% difference.

“People like us have a difficult time hitting 75%. But, we’re still a long way from reaching 80%, let alone 90%.”

The Second Prince shook his head. He felt conflicted, not knowing if it was jealousy or something else.

The others felt the same. They agreed with the noble’s assessment.

Most importantly, it was the first time seeing a 90% deal, and Wang Teng was the beneficiary. How could they not be surprised?

“Hmm, that makes sense!” Wang Teng said.

The Second Prince felt at a loss. This fellow doesn’t regard his 90% as something important.

Actually, the money wasn’t important for them. What they cared about was the difference in treatment.

90% would imply an unprecedented treatment!

“I didn’t expect the Virtual Universe Corporation to have you in such high regard,” Timothy lamented.

Everyone’s gazes turned serious when they looked at the young hero again.

If the company viewed him so highly, they had no reason to act differently.

They willingly went to meet the hero because they saw his performance in the first round and felt that his potential was great.

Based on such a development, they would need to give him even more attention.

“Let’s not talk about this. 90% is indeed a great sum, but the money wouldn’t make a difference to any of you. It’s nothing; no need to be so shocked.” Wang Teng smiled and continued, “Besides, considering your abilities, all of you will definitely stand out in the next round. Getting selected by the Seven Stellar Academies is the main goal.”

The other people wore bitter smiles. Wang Teng was honestly not taking the Virtual Universe Corporation to heart.

However, their attention was quickly drawn by the Seven Stellar Academies.

“It’ll be great if we can enter one of the academies,” Situ Wan’er said in a longing tone.

“That’s right, they are the seven most ancient in the universe. They have strong foundations and long histories. Not even the Great Qian Empire can compare to them,” said the Second Prince, looking up with hope in his eyes.

“Does anyone have a preference for any of them?” Ji Haochen asked.

“Choice? I’d be ecstatic to enter, no matter which.” Situ Wan’er shook her head.

“The top ten have the right to choose, while the rest can only wait for the academies to choose them,” said the Second Prince.

“The top ten are able to choose?” Wang Teng was surprised.

“That’s right. The Seven Stellar Academies have the same heritage, but they were eventually split into seven institutions that were relocated in different parts of the universe. Their legacies are different too,” said the Second Prince, glancing at Wang Teng as he explained.

“It might seem like the Seven Stellar Academies would do all the choosing, but the candidates can also have a say and select their preferred academies. However, only those incredibly talented have the right to choose.

“The top ten martial warriors will naturally have their own strong suits. Some practice blade skills while others are well-versed in sword skills. There are lightning-element warriors, wind-element warriors, and others with the five common elements.”
