Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 96 You're Just Like a Clown

Yang Fan wasn't too surprised by his father's indifference, or by the mockery and disdain of his eldest and third brothers.

After all, with only average martial arts talent, he was seen as a good-for-nothing hoodlum by them since childhood, so it was normal for them not to trust him.

For Yang Fan, his childhood dream was to make something of himself, which is why he founded the Jianghu News Club at school and chose to refine the auxiliary demon spirit Xunyin Beast.

He wanted to show his family, who looked down on him, that even without martial arts talent, he could still achieve great things.

He, Yang Fan, is no worse than anyone else.

But now, he finds that he has let go of it.

He felt somewhat resentful but less angry about his father's attitude.

Joining the Jianghu Martial Arts Club, facing peerless geniuses like Lin Feng and Yun Kai, and about to be specially recruited into Hongyun University, coupled with the experiences of the past few days, Yang Fan's horizons have broadened considerably.

His father's achievements were no longer anything to him.

"Hello, Manager Chen, this is Yang Fan. Do you remember me? We contacted each other yesterday. Haha, that's good. It's nothing. I wanted to ask if you know Tianyuan Real Estate?"

In the eyes of Yang's father and others, Yang Fan was obviously somewhat ridiculous at this moment. Only Yang Yi felt that Yang Fan was different, as if he had gained a halo.

"Manager Chen? He's just a nobody I know."

Although Yang Li was somewhat surprised by Yang Fan's change, he did not believe that Yang Fan could get 500 million in project funds.

He couldn't even get through to his father's connections, let alone his useless younger brother in his eyes.

"Alright, I'll handle this. Stop making a scene," said Mr. Yang, his brows slightly furrowed.

In his view, Yang Fan was just putting on a show because he couldn't save face in front of his brother.

What important figures does a student know, like Manager Chen?
How could an ordinary manager possibly deal with a group like Tianyuan Real Estate?

"Xiao Fan is worried about you too. If Xiao Fan..." Yang's mother was also a little anxious. She tugged at Yang Fan's sleeve, afraid that Yang Fan would anger his father.

Yang Fan held his mother's hand and smiled slightly.

He didn't hang up the phone, but continued, "It's just a small matter. My father is Yang Zan of Yangyuan Company. Tianyuan Real Estate has been delaying paying a construction fee of 500 million yuan. I don't know anyone at Tianyuan Real Estate. I think Manager Chen is also in the real estate company, so maybe he knows him!"

"That's great. With Manager Chen's help, that would be the best."

"Okay, then I'll owe you a favor. I'll wait for your message."

Yang Fan hung up the phone, only to be met with a barrage of surprised and mocking stares.

"It's so realistic!" Yang Li couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Yang's father also shook his head, feeling even more disappointed in Yang Fan.

It's one thing to lack talent, but to actually learn to boast is something a businessman like him despises and hates.

"Mom, it's okay."

Yang Fan didn't explain, but smiled at his mother. If it weren't for his mother, this home wouldn't hold much appeal for him.

"Ding"

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Yang Zan picked up his phone from the coffee table. He hadn't paid much attention to it at first, but when he saw the caller's name, he quickly answered the phone, his tone somewhat obsequious and respectful: "Manager Gao, hello! What? Thank you so much! Yes, it's still the same company card number. How could I let you treat me? Okay, okay, I'll treat you another time when you're free!"

Yang Zan hung up the phone, looking at Yang Fan with some shock and disbelief.

"Xiao Fan, who are you looking for?"

Yang Zan stood up, surprised.

The call I just received was from Tianyuan Real Estate.

The manager he mentioned was the project manager, who was notoriously difficult to deal with in the industry.

Before this, no matter how much he invited or tried to please the other party, he was directly rejected; they were unmoved by either soft or hard approaches.

But just now, Manager Gao told him on the phone that the project payment would be settled with the finance department soon, giving some reasons for the long delay, as if he was afraid that he would misunderstand.

What he found most unbelievable was that this difficult Manager Gao actually offered to treat him to dinner; no one would believe it if word got out.

"what?"

The mockery on Yang Li's face had long been replaced by shock; his mouth was agape, and he looked somewhat stunned.

Judging from the father's reaction, it's clear that Yang Fan's phone call had an effect.

How could Yang Fan know such an important person?
"Little brother, I knew you could do it!"

Yang Yi said with some pride that she was the only one who had expectations for Yang Fan.

"Xiaoyi, do you know?"

Yang Zan quickly asked, suddenly realizing why Yang Yi had explained things to Yang Fan earlier.

Yang Yi smiled and said, "I'm not really sure either, let my younger brother explain it to you."

Faced with the surprised and questioning looks from his family, Yang Fan remained calm: "I joined a martial arts club. The club members include Lin Feng, Yun Kai, and Dong Yunan, so Manager Gao didn't dare not give it to me."

How do you know these three people?

Yang Zan took a deep breath. Although he tried his best to remain calm, his voice still trembled slightly.

He had naturally heard of these three names.

Lin Feng, the top scorer in the college entrance examination.

Yun Kai, a half-orc who had reverted to his ancestral form and become a demon, was once part of an extraordinary family.

Dong Xiuxian's daughter, Dong Yunan, is a healer who refines eighth-tier sea monster spirits.

In the past week, these three names have appeared in television news at least a hundred times, more than Ye Qiu, making it hard not to recognize them.

When he drinks with his business partners, the conversation often revolves around them.

This year's college entrance examination was much more exciting than in previous years.

This is especially true for Jiangcheng, which not only made a name for itself on the national stage, but also surpassed other base cities in both the quality and quantity of its geniuses.

This time, there are a total of 17 recognized super geniuses in Jiangcheng.

Seven of them joined Great Wall University, one of whom was Ye Qiu.

The five of them joined Magic Star University.

The five of them joined Hongyun University.

Lin Feng, Yun Kai, and Dong Yunan all came from the same middle school and joined Hongyun University together, which surprised everyone.

News media widely reported that Hongyun University had made a private deal long ago, at a great cost.

Yang Fan actually knew them all and had even joined the same martial arts club. No wonder Manager Gao changed his attitude, fearing he might offend him.

Although Tianyuan Real Estate is a real estate company with a market value of tens of billions, it is actually a small company and its strength is not very strong.

As the vice president of the Demon Spirit Master Association, Dong Xiuxian wields immense power and influence in Jiangcheng. If he were to issue a statement, Tianyuan Real Estate would likely find it difficult to make any progress.

As for the extraordinary Yun family, even though they have declined somewhat in recent years, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Tianyuan would never dare to offend the Yun family, no matter how much courage he had. As for Lin Feng, the hottest top scorer in the college entrance examination, no group would offend such a genius unless absolutely necessary.

Tianyuan Real Estate wouldn't dare offend any one of the three individuals, let alone all three together.

What puzzled Yang Zan was that even though they were in the same martial arts club, it was just a student-run club, so how could Yang Fan know such an important person, and why would Manager Chen actually give him face?

"Xiao Fan, Dad really owes a lot to you this time."

Yang Zan patted Yang Fan on the shoulder and sighed.

He never imagined that his least valued son would one day be of help to him.

Without Yang Fan, the company might have really gone bankrupt in another half month.

"fine."

For some reason, Yang Fan didn't feel much joy or a sense of accomplishment when his father recognized and even encouraged him for the first time.

"How many points did you get on this year's college entrance exam?"

Yang Zan then realized that he didn't know Yang Fan's college entrance examination results, so he asked.

"I got 529," Yang Fan said.

"529 points?"

Clearly, this score was somewhat unexpected for Yang Zan, who thought it would be around 400 points.

"I've broken through to the eighth level of body cultivation," Yang Fan said with a hint of sarcasm.

When other people's children are about to take the college entrance examination, their parents are all concerned and nervous, after all, it is a major event concerning their future.

It's ironic that his father didn't even know his abilities, how many points he scored, a week after the college entrance exam.

"529, plus the second-tier demon spirit you refined, that's ten points, so it's 539."

Seeing the self-deprecating smile on his son's face, Yang Zan, as a father, felt somewhat guilty.

He realized that he had indeed neglected his youngest son a lot.

“The admission score for Changkong University this time is 574. You are 45 points short, but it’s okay. Dad will pay for it.”

Feeling guilty, Yang Zan decided to make amends to his son.

This money just so happened to be the one Yang Fan got back, so it could be considered a reward.

"Dad, have you thought this through?" The eldest brother, Yang Zemin, couldn't help but ask.

Although he was somewhat shocked that Yang Fan knew Lin Feng and the other two, and that they were even in the same martial arts club, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

He had also gone through the college entrance examination, so he knew that even the best of friends would gradually lose their friendship over time once they were separated after graduation.

Lin Feng and his friends will meet new classmates and friends, and super geniuses and ordinary people will not have anything in common.

“Yes, Dad, one point in Changkong costs three million, and 45 points costs more than one hundred million!” Yang Li also advised.

In his eyes, Yang Fan's talent was too poor, and even if he went to Changkong University, it wouldn't be of much use and would be a complete waste of money.

“It’s a good thing that Xiao Fan can go to Changkong. It will benefit his future. Besides, he’s the one who got the money back.” Yang’s mother supported Yang Fan going to Changkong.

"Yang Fan, what are your own plans?"

Yang Zan hesitated at his son's persuasion. More than 100 million yuan was not a small amount, and he would feel the pain for a long time if he gave it to him.

If Yang Fan has talent, then it's worth it!

But it's clear that Yang Fan isn't very talented, which is why he hesitated.

But since the words had already been spoken, as a father, he couldn't simply go back on his word.

"No need, the level of Changkong is too low, I don't care at all."

Yang Fan smiled.

The persuasion from his eldest and third brothers clearly made their father hesitate, which made Yang Fan feel a little sad. He realized that his father still didn't value him.

“Yang Fan, don’t think you can act so arrogantly just because you helped Dad get the money back,” Yang Li said.

He attended Changkong University, something he was very proud of. This was also why he was the most valued student by his father.

Yang Fan's disparaging remarks about Chang Kong naturally displeased him.

If Yang Fan hadn't gotten back 500 million for his father and resolved the family crisis, he would have definitely taught Yang Fan a lesson.

"Yang Li, do you know what's going on? You're standing right in front of me now."

As Yang Fan spoke, he pulled out Hongyun University's admission notice from his bag: "Just like a clown."

"Hongyun University?" Yang Yi suddenly screamed.

"what?"

Yang Zan snatched the admission notice from Yang Fan's hand, and when he opened it, he couldn't help but gasp.

Yang Li and Yang Zemin had very interesting expressions at this moment, their faces full of disbelief.

How could Yang Fan, who scored 529 points, be specially recruited by Hongyun University, which is one of the three major hero academies?

"real or fake?"

Yang Li exclaimed, feeling somewhat defeated.

He was the most favored at home because he was admitted to Changkong University, one of the nine elite universities, far surpassing his older brother and sister.

This had always been his pride, but now, his pride had been ruthlessly trampled and shattered by Yang Fan's acceptance letter.

Compared to the three major hero academies, Changkong Academy is simply no match.

The Three Hero Academies are not just universities; they represent a class and privilege.

He truly looked like a clown in front of this acceptance letter.

"What do you say?"

Yang Fan glanced at the distraught Yang Li and said calmly.

"Yang Fan, what happened? How did you get specially recruited by Hongyun?"

Yang Zan couldn't believe it.

He never expected that Yang Fan, whom he had the lowest hopes for, would be specially recruited by Hong Yun.

Red Clouds!
If his business partners knew that his son had been admitted to Hongyun University, they would all look at him with more respect.

"Because of Lin Feng and the others!"

Yang Fan didn't explain much. He said a few words to his mother and then went back to his room.

After Yang Fan left, Yang Zan and the others looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.
