Chapter 154 The Angry Old Man Upon hearing that news, Milly's expression becthoughtful. Are the admissions teams from both Crestfallen University and Crestfield University showing up already? The entrance exam results hadn't even been announced. Were they here to promote their institutions? Jordan seemed to expect their arrival and calmly said, "Go ahead and let them in." "Right away. Mr. Jordan," responded the servant, and shortly after, he led two groups of university admissions representatives, each dressed in their unique uniforms, into the grand living room.
The lavish decor of the room, akin to that of a royal palace, took the university representatives by surprise. They mused that while it's often id a noble's child will shine no matter their background, seeing someone from such affluence still push for academic success was rare.
Not to mention, having not one but two exceptional kids at once was even more remarkable! As the university representatives settled on the sofa, they offered their school pamphlets to Jordan, saying, "Are you Milly and Anthony's parents? We're here representing Crestfallen University. Please, have a look at our brochure" Crestfield University's representatives quickly followed suit, handing over their pamphlet. This is Crestfield University's brochure. We invite you to take a moment to review it." Sitting next to Jordan, Milly keenly went through the brochures. Indeed, these were the top two universities in the nation, Crestfallen University and Crestfield University.

mye "Excuse me, are you sure my exam score qualifies? The results aren't out yet, and I don't even know my score.
She felt confident in her performance, but the lack of official results left her in limbo.
Crestfallen University's representatives reassured her, "Don't worry: Milly. We get the scores in advance for the top fifty applicants in the province and reach out directly." Crestfield University's representatives added, "Absolutely, with scores like yours, you're exactly what Crestfield University looks for in its future students." Crestfallen University muttered, "Competitors are always ready with their excessive flattery and no sense of boundaries." Milly now understood how things were playing out.
Jonathan, caught off-guard, quickly recovered and praised Milly, "Incredible, Milly! Getting into both Crestfallen University and Crestfield University, you've madeproud!" Putting aside the mention of the top fifty, Anthony wholeheartedly commended Milly, "Milly is truly incredible, a perfect blend of beauty and brains, truly distinguished!" "Totally! You're the star of our family!" Chapter 154 The Angry Old Man "Yeah, we should totally put up a plaque saying, "Milly, ace of the college entrance exams "Definitely, it should turn into a worldwide festivity. Her ndeserves to light up screens across the globe. Just Halturia? Nope, that's not enough!" "Not just on screens. Even the rental bikes should give out a celebratory message when you unlock them!" Everyone is wondering. Is this the lifestyle of the wealthy? Milly remains silent, pondering the squestion.
Judging by the lavish celebrations, those who knew about her getting into Crestfallen University thought she had hit the jackpot.
Then, an authoritative, elderly voice said, "Why waste twith these places? Better to join a military school with strict training. Graduate, pick up a rifle, and head straight to war. Magnificent." Jonathan quickly countered, "Grandpa, Milly's a young lady." "So what? Women can't fight and face the enemy? Back in my day, we had plenty of women in our ranks. Never heard a single complaint!" the old man retorted.
"Look at these frail beings. What do they remind you of? How are they supposed to compete on the battlefield and contribute to the country!" Jonathan was shocked but kept calm, saying, "Things are different now." You disrespectful kid." Hearing Jonathan's reply, Philip lifted his cane as if to strike.

"Hmph." Philip gave a disdainful snort.
Just do as I say, go to the military school!" His voice had a tone of command, making everyone present shudder.
But Milly stood her ground, saying, "No, I won't go.
"You!" Philip looked at her furiously.
Milly looked back boldly, "Grandpa, we live in a peaceful era. It's not about going to war to serve the country anymore. I can contribute to our nation without being in combat!"
