Admissions

Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and a grand, imposing school rose from the ground. Ye Lei had personally chosen the school's name, and he had carved every stroke on the plaque himself. He had even designed the first set of school uniforms. The faculty, teaching materials, grounds, and everything else were now in place. The only thing missing was students.

Building the school had been easy, but recruiting students was not.

The group's shareholders believed the first batch of students should naturally come from wealthy and influential families, as that would bring greater profits to the group. Ye Lei and Ye Junqing opposed the idea. In their eyes, children from rich families were bound to be arrogant and domineering. If they were admitted, they would likely abuse their status as Soul Master School students to wreak havoc outside, which would be like lifting a rock only to drop it on their own feet.

Ye Lei's idea was to recruit children from ordinary families and waive tuition entirely for the first year.

The school's admission requirements were also simple. Applicants had to be at least ten years old but no older than twelve, with a Soul Power Level of at least level 20. This Soul Master School accepted only commoners; children of wealthy and powerful families would not be admitted under any circumstances.

As soon as this news spread, wealthy businessmen across the country became dissatisfied. They had originally planned to send their children to the school once it was completed, but this outcome made it clear that the school looked down on wealthy families.

After hearing the news, the Chen Family of Yancheng flew straight to Banyan City that very night. They were certainly bold enough to point at Ye Lei's nose and curse him out.
