Merging with a ring spirit was something that no one had ever tried before, and no one knew how to do it. Hence, the Zephyr Academy became the only place for Spirit Healers.
Even if each family only produced one Spirit Healer, it was enough for them to live a life of luxury.
The youths that came to the Zephyr Academy were mostly here to become Spirit Healers.
The huge crowd gathered before the gates of the Zephyr Academy was packed with youths.
They craned their necks to look around as they gathered in groups of three to five to whisper among themselves. Everyone's faces were filled with smiles of anticipation.
A figure moved quickly through the crowd and squeezed past a group of people before he reached a tree that was slightly less crowded. Under the tree, four figures had been waiting for some time.
Qiao Chu held a piece of paper in his hand and walked over to his companions with a gloomy expression. "Is this an academy or a slaughterhouse? They are so merciless in their extortion. "
"What's wrong?" Fei Yan asked, blinking at Qiao Chu.
Qiao Chu threw the piece of paper over and Fei Yan and his companions caught it to read.
His face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Three years of school fees ….. three hundred thousand ….. and that's not including accommodation and food? This ….. This is daylight robbery!! "Fei Yan stared at the figure written on the paper, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
To a bunch of poor people like them who had to split a tael of silver into three petals, three hundred thousand ….. What kind of concept was that?
Even if they sold all of them, they would not be able to gather that much money.
At that moment, everyone's eyes turned to look at the petite Jun Xie, their sugar daddy!
"Little Xie ….. the money ….." Qiao Chu looked at Jun Xie with tears in his eyes.
The five of them, that would amount to one million and five hundred thousand taels. That was just for entering the branch division and had not included the accommodation and food. According to the Zephyr Academy's fees, the five of them would need at least two million taels to get in.
Jun Xie raised her head under the expectant gazes of the four and said calmly: "Not enough."
"….."
A bolt out of the blue struck the four of them. So much money, was not even enough for their sugar daddy.
When Jun Xie had set out on this journey, she had only brought slightly more than a million taels with her. She had spent most of her fortune at the Phoenix Academy and now she had less than eight hundred thousand taels on her, which was barely enough to pay for five people's school fees.
"Bastards! With such high fees, why are there still so many people? Did you fish money out of the water? " Qiao Chu stared at the sea of people before him, and his heart was bleeding. Even with such an exorbitant amount of money, more than a thousand people had still come to the Zephyr Academy, and it would be a miracle if even a tenth of them were able to make it into the main division. The other ninety percent were basically throwing money away for nothing.
Three hundred thousand taels of silver was enough for a small wealthy family to spend for a lifetime. Throwing it down in such a gambling manner really broke the glass hearts of the poor.
"If not for the exorbitant fees, even if the Zephyr Academy were to expand ten times, it would still not be enough." Hua Yao said softly.
The only cradle for Spirit Healers. Just this alone was enough to cause a huge crowd to break their heads.
"But … we don't have that much money …" Qiao Chu's shoulders immediately slumped.
Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes and suddenly asked: "Are there any auction houses nearby?"
Qiao Chu was stunned.
"Little Xie, why are you going to the auction house? We don't have anything on us that we can sell. "The most valuable thing they had were the clothes from the Moon Weavers Pavilion. Even if they sold them, they wouldn't be able to make enough money.
"Just say it." Jun Wu Xie said.
