“You arrived late, and Mr. Chandler is extremely busy. He sent this as compensation for It’s a Dark Gold-tier skill upgrade stone. You can upgrade Symbiotic Link to Dark Gold, boosting vitality contribution by 120%. This will greatly help your future.

Hugo Chandler was Chromatic Star’s Head of Education. With the SAT just finished, he had countless matters to handle.
He knew Joanna was capable and had watched her dungeon-clear videos, but he still chose to give the guaranteed admission to Ivan.
There were reasons behind that choice.
He didn’t expect much from Joanna’s long-term growth.
Her talent was only S-rank. Even at a top university, she might not receive enough resources. Summoned beasts required an enormous investment.
Front-line tank classes, however, needed less input and often gave better returns.
On top of that, Hugo and Ivan were both from Redlight City and had known each other for a while.
Joanna was from Violetlight City. The only person she’d feel grateful toward would be Maverick.
Taking everything into account, the guaranteed slot naturally went to Ivan.
Besides, Ivan’s profession was extremely valuable, but he always suffered in evaluations.
Joanna wasn’t angry.
Voidstar University had never been her goal.
“I understand. Please thank Mr. Chandler for me p>
She accepted the skill upgrade stone.

Not bad. This saves me from buying one. With the money left, I can buy another and upgrade all my to Dark Gold-tier.
She didn’t plan to upgrade Symbiotic Link. It was good enough for now.
Upgrading offensive abilities was a better choice.
Seeing that Joanna wasn’t upset and accepted things calmly, Hugo’s secretary felt satisfied. “I’ll be leaving then. Enjoy yourselves p>
Before leaving, he even patted Maverick’s arm.
Maverick nearly choked from anger.
He looked at Joanna with sympathy and tried to cheer her up. “It’s okay, Joanna. I know how strong you are. Your two contracted companions both have SSS-rank potential. Mr. Chandler will regret this sooner or later p>
Maverick had seen the Space Alliance system’s judgment.
If even the system acknowledged her potential while Hugo didn’t, then he was clearly blind.
Joanna smiled. Even behind the Venom Spider Lady’s veil, it was obvious she truly didn’t care. She was actually in a great mood.
“Honestly, compared to guaranteed admission, I like this compensation more. It’s worth at least 300 to 400 million. Mr. Chandler is pretty generous p>
As for him regretting it?
That was his issue. She couldn’t control that.
At that moment, Zoey announced the first performance on stage.
“Next, let’s welcome the newly debuted idol groups to perform for our top hundred SAT students. Let their passionate dancing and energetic singing bring you a visual feast.
“Also, all the idols here are available for dates tonight! We hope everyone enjoys the night p>
Joanna felt a bit uncomfortable with Zoey’s implication.
But when the male idols came on stage with energetic dances, she suddenly let it
From questioning their mindset, she gradually understood them and became similar in thought.
Of course, she was just watching the show.

Some of the groups were already well-known on Chromatic Star. Others were graduates like them, who had decided back in Grade 10 to go pro and had trained ever since.
They clearly had tons of experience.
Their stage presence was impressive.
Joanna might’ve admired them more if not for the obvious hint about private dates.
Ultimately, in this world, combat professionals were the nobles.
Support roles, regular people, and even those idols were little more than tools, resources, or playthings.
She was grateful for the firm resolve that had brought her this far. Even during the three years without a summoned beast, she never thought of switching paths. Instead, she relied on sharp combat sense and command ability to stay with her team.
Otherwise, she might’ve been the one standing on that stage.
After all, her affinity was higher than Zoey’s A-rank.
“Joanna, try this! It’s a fruit you’ve never eaten before p>
Nighthowl held out a plate, clearly hoping she’d eat instead of watching those guys twist around on stage with zero dignity.
“This roasted meat is also good.” Alwyn stabbed a piece with his fork and fed it to Joanna.
