At this moment, Lin Beichen, who was the focus of countless eyes, had already finished chatting with Li Yang and was having breakfast with his parents.
Lin Xiangdong asked, "Son, have you decided which university you want to go to?"
After saying that, he took a sip of soy milk from his bowl with great pride, as if he were drinking wine. Those top schools that are unreachable for most students are now waiting for my son's decision. I am proud!
Lin Beichen shook his head, "Not yet, but I have a rough idea."
"Oh?"
At this moment, Zheng Xia put down her chopsticks, looking puzzled, "You know, yesterday was so busy that my phone almost blew up, but today it's quiet right from early morning."
Lin Xiangdong glanced at the clock on the wall, it was 8:17.
"Indeed."
"Ring… Ring…"
Before Lin Xiangdong could finish his sentence, his own phone started ringing.
Lin Xiangdong took a look, it was from Li Donghua.
"This guy, always comes up when mentioned, it's a call from Huaqing University."
He turned on the speaker and answered the call.
Li Donghua's cheerful laughter came from the phone, "Good morning, Beichen's dad."
"Good morning, Director Li."
Lin Xiangdong responded and pushed the phone in front of Lin Beichen, "You calling for Lin Beichen, right? He's right here, let me pass the phone to him."
Lin Beichen greeted, and Li Donghua said, "Good morning, Lin Beichen. Don't mind me bothering you this early, it's just that I'm eager to recruit talents and afraid other schools might snatch you away. So, what's your decision?"
"I haven't decided which university yet." Lin Beichen was direct, "However, the university I choose must meet one condition."
Li Donghua was overjoyed, he could fulfill not just one condition but ten!
He quickly replied, "What condition?"
"I hope the university can, within its capabilities, help me as much as possible with my exploration of electricity and provide flexibility with attendance for the specialized courses."
Lin Beichen's future plan wasn't detailed, but he had a rough direction—studying the Cultivation Method, with learning not being the main focus.
Therefore, it was crucial for him that his future university wouldn't disrupt his research on the Cultivation Method.
Of course, if the university could also provide some assistance in his research, it would be even better. Although he wasn't sure what kind of help a conventional university could offer, the possibility made him more determined to choose an exceptional university to increase his chances of receiving support!
Li Donghua was stunned upon hearing this.
Exploring electricity?
What's there to explore?
Haven't scientists already explored enough?
…..
A series of questions rushed into his mind.
He was well aware of what's trending online, having monitored it closely. Before calling, he pondered for a long time but couldn't make sense of it. He decided to call directly and ask, but was surprised by such a strange request.
"Could online speculations be true?"
Li Donghua dared not gamble; after all, he promised numerous benefits, and a mishap could end his career as a recruitment officer!
"Well…"
Li Donghua's voice sounded somewhat awkward. He paused to think and then continued, "Lin Beichen, I'm afraid I can't make the final decision on this matter and need to discuss it with the school leadership."
"Ring… Ring…"
Hardly had he finished speaking when Zheng Xia's phone rang timely.
Zheng Xia glanced at her phone and mouthed to Lin Beichen, "Imperial Capital University!"
Lin Beichen understood and nodded. He then told Li Donghua, "It's alright, Director Li, you can discuss it first."
After exchanging goodbye, he hung up and picked up Zheng Xia's call.
"Hello, Director Sun."
"Hello, Lin Beichen."
Sun Minghao was direct and immediately asked, "Do you have a preferred university in mind?"
"Not yet, but…"
Lin Beichen repeated the condition he had just mentioned to Li Donghua.
Sun Minghao asked, "Are there other requirements?"
"No."
"No problem!"
Sun Minghao confirmed crisply, "I represent Imperial Capital University in agreeing to your condition, and everything promised yesterday will also be fulfilled."
He had seen the online discussions but believed that a student who scored perfect marks in all subjects on the college entrance exam was already extraordinary, so doing things that seemed odd to ordinary people wasn't surprising.
"So…"
"I will only list Imperial Capital University in my application."
Responding to Sun Minghao's straightforwardness, Lin Beichen didn't hesitate and decided instantly.
Hearing this.
On the other end of the phone, Sun Minghao was so excited he almost jumped, saying, "Good, good, good, Lin Beichen, you trust Imperial Capital University and choose us, we will not disappoint you!"
After that, he explained some details about filling out the application, enrollment procedures, etc., and then hung up to report to the school leadership.
Lin Beichen had just finished breakfast. He told his parents that any further university calls shouldn't disturb him, informing them he had already made a decision, including calls from Huaqing University. Then he returned to his bedroom.
He hadn't fully mastered emitting electricity from his palm last night...
He had to work hard!
"Yesterday's failure was baffling..."
"Today, I hope to find the reason for the failure!"
"Only by fully mastering palm electricity can I advance to Palm Thunder!"
With anticipation, Lin Beichen started his visualization!
In the "Illusion Becomes Reality" fantasy...
The position of the swelling was clear, and two mysterious forces appeared, guiding and urging them to reach his palm.
"Kzzz… Kzzz… Kzzz…"
Electricity appeared!
He was used to hearing the crackling sound and seeing electricity in his palm, hence he felt no particular excitement.
Continuing!
Second time... Success!
Third time... Success!
Fourth time... Failure!
Fifth time... Success!
...
For three consecutive days.
Except for eating and using the bathroom, he stayed in his bedroom repeating the visualization.
He couldn't find the reason for the occasional failures, but they were becoming less frequent!
Until that third afternoon.
In the bedroom, Lin Beichen raised his brow, his face showing a hint of surprise. He realized that the swelling position had become almost indistinct since the last intensification of it, and he hadn't failed at all!
"What's going on?"
"All successful??"
"Is it a matter of luck??"
"Or…"
"Success???"
