Chapter 314 - 217: The Soul Person
When Li Yi entered the investigation bureau again, he found that Zhang Lei, the captain, was already waiting at the door.
"Li Yi, Zheng Gong already talked to me about your situation just now. Conveniently, we were waiting for you to wake up and discuss the matter about the Golden Academy allocation. This matter is indeed very important and affects a lot. It’s better for everyone if we resolve it sooner. Come with me to the conference room," Zhang Lei said directly, while glancing behind Li Yi.
Assured that Li Yi’s mother was not present, he felt somewhat relieved.
"Okay," Li Yi nodded.
Soon, Zhang Lei led Li Yi to the investigation bureau’s conference room, where several senior bureau members were present, looking quite solemn.
After greeting everyone, Zhang Lei gestured for Li Yi to take a seat.
"Li Yi, let’s get to the point. The allocation for the Golden Academy was actually decided during your coma. Currently, within the bureau, there are three people eligible for these two spots: Master Pete, you, and Gu Mengping, who joined the bureau early and became an external combatant," Zhang Lei stated.
"However, given that Master Pete has the oldest qualifications and the greatest merit, his spot is almost locked, with no possible changes. The only controversy is between you and Gu Mengping regarding who should take the spot to the Golden Academy."
"It is precisely because of the controversy that the bureau has kept the allocation confidential and has not made any announcements yet," he added.
Zhang Lei was very straightforward and laid out the current situation regarding the Golden Academy allocation.
Li Yi shifted his gaze to Zhang Lei, but before he could speak, another senior member said, "Gu Mengping has the advantage of older qualifications, and Li Yi, your advantage is the recent merits you’ve achieved. However, the downside is that you are only in the inspiration realm, which is weaker. Entering the Golden Academy would be stressful for you. There are many eccentrics there, and with your realm, it’s easy to be ostracized and bullied. All things considered, I lean towards Gu Mengping going to the Golden Academy as it’s a safer choice."
