Chapter 209. Offer Accepted.

"Sauna City University is located in Sauna City. Sauna City is in Waldhar State of the Iron Empire of the Western Continent.

It’s one of the most prominent universities in Waldhar State and the Iron Empire as a whole. Because of this, it’s a gathering place of geniuses from all walks of life across the Iron Empire.

Most of our professors are legendary rank 2 warriors. However, we have several rank 3 warriors among us," Genevieve explained politely.

"Like every other Warrior University across Endra founded by the Global Academic Federation, we have a mission reward system for students and professors. The greater the difficulty of the mission you complete, the greater your contribution points. The more your contribution points, the more resources you can purchase.

There’s a ranking system for students called the Genius ranking, responsible for ranking the top 10,000 students in the university. There’s also a ranking system for professors called the Professorship rankings. The professorship rankings rank professors based on their contribution points. The top 100 on the professorship rankings obtain discounts whenever they decide to purchase resources from the university."

Aiden nodded as he listened.

"In Sauna City University, professors are required to have lectures at least twice a month, as long as they are on campus. So, if they are out of campus for missions, the rule does not apply to them," Genevieve continued.

"All professors have a very large villa dedicated to them by the University. Of course, professors are paid five hundred thousand dollars every month. For warriors of their calibre, such an amount of money is a standard payment for their services."

Aiden nodded.

"There’s no need to say more. I will join you."

Genevieve and Anly revealed gleeful expressions on their faces.

"Thank you so much, sir," Anly said. "We are pleased to have you on board with us. The combat department will really flourish because of your presence."

Aiden nodded politely. "I’m sure there’s some paperwork that needs to be done, right?"

"Errm... yes, senior. However, we will personally escort you to the Department of Combat to get you registered as a professor when we arrive on campus," Genevieve said.

"Much appreciated." Aiden nodded.

"Pleasure is ours, senior," Genevieve and Anly replied. "Then, we will excuse ourselves, senior Turner."

"Alright," Aiden replied.

After that, under the gazes of the flabbergasted students, their professors left the pool area with excitement on their faces.

The students had never seen their professors exercise this kind of respect for anyone before.

The only people who could warrant this kind of treatment from people at the level of their professors were people of a higher cultivation realm. But even with that, they were not too fearful because of the backing of Sauna City University. After all, the president of the university was a legendary rank 3 warrior. The vice president was also a legendary rank 3 warrior.

Sauna City University had a habit of going after anyone who openly targeted one of their professors. This was because professors were extremely valuable assets to the university.

Not even the mayor of the city, the governor of the state, or the royal family of the Iron Empire could throw their weight around in front of their professors.

Of course, this situation did not only apply to Sauna City University. The Universities across the states and cities of the empires across the continents of Endra had extremely powerful professors in their midst. Also, the presidents and vice presidents of the universities were mostly legendary rank 3 warriors.

Because of this, although the royal families were powerful, they could not afford to offend the Universities.

Across Endra, the balance of power across empires was maintained between the Universities—under the Academic Federation, the Global Guild Union, the Global Warriors Association, The Global Alchemist Association, and The Global Artifact Engineers Association.

Conflicts could occur due to differing interests, but no one was stupid enough to cause a large scale conflict because the repercussions of war were not something the powers could handle.

Also, if the powers went too far with conflicts, the International Union, the umbrella under which all powers on Endra operated, could step in and remind them of why they were the ultimate governing power, keeping the balance on Endra.

The students stared at the black-haired man in shades, chilling on his lounger and sipping his apple juice.

"This senior is really on another level. I didn’t hear wrong, right?" One of the ladies whispered with shock.

"You heard everything right. This senior is going to be a professor in the combat department. I’m really looking forward to attending some of his lectures—that’s in case he will be tutoring our year group."

"He must be at least a beginner rank 3 warrior, right? It will make more sense if he teaches the fourth years. Most likely, he won’t lecture our year group."

"Damn... did we just hit on our new combat professor?"

The ladies wanted to find a hole and hide in.

How were they supposed to attend his lecture when they remembered the fact that they tried to flirt with him and he bounced them?

"Honestly, I don’t think you should be worried," One of the gentlemen said. "Do you think someone of his calibre will be concerned about what happened?"

"That’s true. He probably won’t even remember us," One of the ladies said in relief.

"That makes me feel more relieved. Seriously, we need to learn to be more discerning. You never know who you might offend."

"You are right. Now that I look at him, I don’t feel like he looks ordinary anymore. His cheap clothes, casual demeanor, and young appearance make me feel like I’m looking at a slumbering predator who is so confident in his power that he doesn’t see the need to dress up or try to flex his power to impress people."

"That is right. This senior is extremely terrifying. Anyway, let’s head in and chill like we planned. You girls up for it?"

"Sure... but what happens here stays here. If you mention what happened between us to any of your friends, you are screwed."

"Relax, ladies, we know how to keep a secret."

"You better."

The group looked at the terrifying senior chilling by the pool one last time and left the place.
