More accurately, the best universities are the military ones, until the MC joins the one that is ranked somewhere 4th to 10th and then leads that university’s team to take 1st in whatever competition. When this is not the formula, then it is the MC joining one of the big 3 (sometimes 4) who are all more or less considered equally elite. Though even then, the military school is usually considered first in combat rankings or they placed first in the previous competition.
There were a total of six martial arts universities in Guangdong City. The best were the First Military University and the Second Military University.

"I know you're from the same university as me, and of the same year, Tang Zheng, height 1.83 meters, weight 70 kilograms, strong character, calm, a bit of a male chauvinist, working part-time at North Supermarket ... Let's meet at the statue in front of the Train Station Square at seven in the evening three days later. Bear the consequence if you fail to show up!" Listening to the string of words from the other party that knew even more about him than his own mother did, sweat dripped from Tang Zheng's forehead.

Basically better to confront something and get it over with rather than wait for it to come and confront you. We don’t know what this is in regards to, but I imagine that lost in translation is the sense that this bus is about to take him to that confrontation.
Take a left after getting out of West Bridge Street and walk less than fifty meters, and there's the line 9 bus stop which goes to the train station. Seeing that there were only seven or eight people on the bus, Tang Zheng hesitated for a moment, before biting his teeth and stepping on. If he could, he would really not go on with it. But it's probably better to confess now than to wait for the police to knock at the door.

Compared to what, though? Compared to their ideal, sure, they fell short. Everyone falls short of ideals. Compared to the standard of living they used to have? China has been an astounding success. Without China’s statistics factored in, capitalism can’t pretend to be a global force for good. Corruption is no worse there than here, the flavor is just different because the conditions are different.

I mean, phrenology used to be “science” so it’s not like this sort of thing couldn’t have been dreamt up by a hack at some point, but it’s kind of like theorizing on how various hormones interact with the 4 humours.

Essentially,Deng knew that the only way for Chinese socialism to flourish against a backdrop of increasingly interconnected global capitalism was to use the tendencies of capitalists to seek profits against their longer term interests. Central control of the Chinese economy allowed for the Chinese government to use wealth generated by economic opportunity zones to jumpstart the modernization of China and the lifting of hundreds of millions of Chinese out of poverty.

I dunno, a white tiger can have a certain charm. ;)
A featherless phoenix was inferior to a chicken, and a hairless tiger definitely did not look dignified and domineering.

It’s not all that different than calling your country Atlantis or Camelot. It’s not nefarious, it’s a cultural shortcut that conjures an image in the mind of the intended audience without the author needing to devote words to describe it.
In the Great Xia Kingdom, there were countless academies, but only a few were truly famous.

The gold finger was a device used to cheat with old console games. Infinite lives, that sort of stuff. I really wish I knew which novels were first to use the term Gold Finger to refer to the protagonist’s cheat. It’s used so widely that I wonder how many authors even know the origins and how many just grew up reading about other main characters getting their gold fingers, lol.
"This destiny point should be my golden finger!"
