Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 132 Meeting
After more than two hours of "friendly negotiation," the three game slots were finally allocated to three project groups related to agronomy, radio, and metal materials, respectively. Professor Wang, who failed to secure a slot, angrily circled the long table in the conference room several times, and then, seemingly lost in thought, stomped out of the conference room.

Some of the older professors rubbed their temples, looking troubled: "Is Xiao Wang going to submit another report? Ugh, this kid always causes trouble! I don't know how Dean Chen managed to put up with it back then!"

Other professors chimed in with jokes: "With so many top-tier journal articles, how could you possibly not be able to handle it!"

"Sigh, I can't stand it anymore, he's just too much of a troublemaker!"

"I told you to give him one spot, just one! But you wouldn't listen!"

"Easier said than done! Why don't you just give in?"

"This project is indispensable to us, can you give it up?"

"We can't give up on this project either!"

Wang Ergou and the others watched intently as several professors, whose age was more than enough to be their grandfathers, argued back and forth, waving their hands and stamping their feet. They were amazed, and their admiration for these academic giants shattered at that moment.

Not long after, Professor Wang came running back, beaming with joy.

As soon as he walked in, he proudly boasted, "Hehe! You didn't expect that, did you? I asked someone to buy me an activation code that isn't bound to my account!"

Zhao Qing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "That thing still exists!?"

Wang Ergou, who knew a bit about this, said, "It's simple. Just wait for the right price. As long as you don't sell, you'll see the price goes up again! We've only sold about ten so far, there are still many more left to sell!"
"But is Professor Wang really that rich? I remember the latest price posted on the forum has reached 830,000!"

Song Zechuan, who had a semi-teacher-student relationship with Professor Wang, excitedly shared the gossip: "Hey! You don't know this, do you? Professor Wang is a kept man! His father-in-law is a famous entrepreneur. Let alone 800,000, he could probably come up with 8 million!"

"Zun Du is fake Du!?"

"Zun Du! And Professor Wang's wife is so beautiful! Last time I ran into her picking Professor Wang up from get off work, she even gave me a box of cookies!"

Wang Ergou said jealously, "Hiss... wait, your teacher's wife picks Professor Wang up from get off work? What an obscure language! This Professor Wang isn't even that good-looking, what makes him so special?"

"Wake up! He's one of the youngest academicians in the history of China. Otherwise, do you think he could have gotten here? Besides, he's much better looking than you!"

"Much better! She's just a little thinner and taller than me..."

Just as Wang Ergou and his friends were gossiping happily, Aunt Wang said with a smile, "Professor Wang, this group doesn't reimburse expenses!"

Professor Wang's eyes widened immediately: "Don't get me wrong! This account isn't for research! Can't I just play around with it myself? This is a private account!"

"Of course, no problem. Our group won't interfere with anyone's private life, interests, or hobbies, hahaha," Aunt Wang laughed, smoothing things over and not giving anyone else a chance to argue. She then continued, "Next, let's talk about the second task of this meeting, which is also the most important decision we've made! It's to cooperate with the Taiyin Sect to establish the first cultivation university in another world. Of course, that's just a name for easy understanding. In principle, we define it as a 'comprehensive university.' That is to say, all kinds of knowledge that cultivators in the Guixu Realm learn, as well as what we on Blue Star have already researched, will be gradually introduced. Including the textbooks, we will also abandon the past method of compiling materials that are too broad and focus on precision, conciseness, and detail."

"In other words, your task for the foreseeable future will likely be to design specialized topics and compile teaching materials that are more suitable for the situation in the Void Realm."

Professor Wang was the first to slam his fist on the table and speak: "I can just let my students do this kind of thing! The three I'm currently training are incredibly efficient. If I just get them into the group, this kind of task will be a piece of cake!"

Aunt Wang smiled and dropped a bombshell: "This is what I was going to say. The temporary office has decided to open up more slots, but the background check still needs to go through the procedures. Those who want to go abroad cannot participate in our project. It's not that we don't trust everyone, it's just for the safety of both parties."

"In addition," Aunt Wang said, turning her gaze to Wang Ergou and the others, "the university in this other world we've chosen is located in Chang'an City. The idea of ​​setting it up temporarily is to renovate the current Chang'an University and have the experienced Dean Chen take over as the temporary president. I wonder if Little Wang and the other students have any opinions or suggestions?"

"No, no, no!"

Wang Ergou shook his head vigorously, like a rattle drum.

How could anyone have a problem with that? The top tycoon of China is building a university in your city! What kind of treatment is that? You wouldn't even dare to dream of it!

"In that case, let's move on to the next one..."

……

Although they participated in the meeting, Wang Ergou and the others, who acted as mascots throughout, finally finished the entire meeting when they were yawning so much that they could barely keep their eyelids open.

Meanwhile, in the game, the sect's grand banquet finally came to an end.

Although the entire ceremony is over, the banquet usually doesn't last only one day; it generally extends to the duration of the ceremony. After the banquet on the day of the first sacrifice, the sects and cultivators who came to support the ceremony can choose to leave early or stay to continue eating and drinking, taking the opportunity to connect with each other.

However, most of the time, cultivators who have gained long lifespans through cultivation will choose to stay and exchange information and discuss cultivation, unless they have important matters to attend to. This is why the discussions and banquets held among cultivators can often last for ten days or even months.

Although the Taiyin Sect's grand ceremony lasted only seven days, many cultivators did not leave after the seven days. Instead, they gathered in twos and threes and stayed temporarily in the Taiyin Sect area, discussing the Dao.

Even in Chang'an, many unfamiliar faces appeared in a short period of time.

"Junior brother, what if we fail the exam? Senior Sister Jiao would kill us..."

Outside the Chang'an Research Institute, Chaoyan paced anxiously, while Lü Wenyuan exuded confidence: "Senior sister, we're disciples of the Taiyi Ziwei Sect! What right do you have to be picky about some research institute from a small, insignificant sect? We're already being kind enough not to look down on it! How could we possibly fail the exam!"

The other cultivators couldn't stand Lü Wenyuan's inexplicable confidence and couldn't help but mock him, "Hmph, that sounds nice, but what will you do if you don't even pass the preliminary test later!"
