"At Lakehaven Academy, we are in desperate need of various talents. With Hong Yi's capabilities, she would naturally enjoy the treatment of a first-class instructor here, and that's not all. The Academy has also decided to float Hong Yi's treatment up by 20% on top of a first-class instructor's package; all of these will be fully provided by our Academy."
He was one of the few who had been watching from backstage.
Just now, they had been astonished, never expecting the Tianyuan Powerhouse who appeared last to be so formidable.
Even though the Ghost-type Powerhouse Hong Yi excelled at Illusion Technique and had a notably effective way of breaking the Water Dragon's Lament Illusionary Killing Formation—benefiting from the suitable environment—her strength was still not to be underestimated.
Stronger than Red Shadow.
They were all of the Legendary Realm, and they had the discernment to see this.
And precisely because they were legends, with ample experience and a broad perspective, they quickly recovered from their astonishment—they were not without knowledge of hearing about or seeing other Fourth-Order Limit Powerhouses; so, their surprise was moderate.
They soon began discussing the affair concerning Hong Yi.
Lakehaven Academy indeed had no more vacancies for top-tier instructors, but, could they offer her a first-class treatment? Absolutely not!
If they dared to offer Hong Yi a first-class treatment today, tomorrow she might take an offer from another academy, bringing along talents like Irene, Sanghun, and Zhou Yi.
Hong Yi and her group came for the job interview, not necessarily to work here.
In a few days, this incident would spread throughout Tai Xuan, and Lakehaven Academy would carry the stigma of 'not valuing talent.'
That, of course, was unacceptable.
But since there were indeed no vacancies, what to do?
"We'll give it from our side!"
"As the premier city in the Dusk Domain, can't Tianze City afford to give one top-tier instructor treatment?"
"We'll report Hong Yi's case as well, if the higher-ups are willing to allocate additional funding, that would be great, but if they can't, we'll provide it ourselves. Not only will we provide, but we'll also increase the stakes."
"This matter has indeed caught us off guard, but it's also a stroke of fortune. That a Powerhouse with infinite potential like Hong Yi has chosen Tianze Academy proves the excellence of our institution."
"We must not only give, but we must give more, and we must make this known. Do you understand?"
The other Legendary Realms naturally understood this reasoning.
"We don't have the authority to do that, do we? We must contact the old headmaster."
"There's no time; this matter needs to be done quickly. Chen would certainly think the same, and if anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility!"
The name of the top-tier instructor Hong Yi spread rapidly in Tianze City.
The procedures were all completed by that afternoon, with staff fully responsible for assisting and running errands throughout.
At this, Hong Yi was quite pleased.
This Academy, not bad.
The entry procedures for Zhou Yi, Sanghun, and others were naturally also completed that afternoon.
They quickly joined Lakehaven Academy and began to enjoy the Academy's benefits.
The classes hadn't started, and they were still undecided about what students they might teach, but they could already access various types of information.
Hong Yi also checked some Illusion Technique cultivation materials.
Among them were the valuable experiences of many Legendary Realm Grand Illusionists, which were rather precious for Hong Yi.
One after another, prestigious academies were also vigorously carrying out their recruitment.
In many places, previously unnoticed 'dark horse' Powerhouses were making remarkable entrances.
Rankings on the Dragon Gate Ranking were changing rapidly, with the competition being unimaginably fierce.
Soon, a new edition of the Dragon Gate Ranking was published.
