Chapter 51: Li Qianjue's Choice
However, in just one month, Sun Yu's standing in the hearts of the first-year students plummeted to the lowest, most disliked level!
Actually, if there had been someone among their first-year students who could have defeated Sun Yu within that month, someone who could have given them some encouraging words, they wouldn't have become so dejected, seeing Sun Yu's challenge as if he were a plague god, avoiding him whenever possible, and not daring to step onto the stage with him at all.
After several attempts, Sun Yu realized that none of the first-year students dared to face him on stage anymore. He secretly sighed, then turned his gaze towards the second-year students, who were originally watching the show.
The second-year students, who had been enjoying the spectacle of their first-year juniors, felt their eyes widen, their bodies stiffen, and their hearts pound when they saw Sun Yu looking at them.
When Sun Yu stared at them, the second-year students felt as if they were being targeted by some carnivorous beast, their hair standing on end instantly.
However, Sun Yu ultimately decided to give up the idea of fighting the second-year students.
It was too early to fight the second-year students; it wasn't suitable. It was better to continue making things difficult for… no… harvesting… no, find first-year students to fight.
Subsequently, in order to get his classmates to come up and duel, Sun Yu painstakingly devised a good plan.
That was to directly declare that he could fight two at once, and as long as they could defeat him, he would pay double the lost points!
Instantly, upon hearing this, many first-year students' eyes lit up. They knew that Sun Yu had been winning for a whole month, practically raking in a fortune from them, the first-year students.
Furthermore, his daily meals at school did not require any points, so it was imaginable how terrifying the amount of points Sun Yu currently possessed was.
Therefore, as soon as Sun Yu's announcement was made, many first-year students whose strength had reached level nineteen began to feel their hearts burn with excitement. For points, fighting with more people against fewer seemed not impossible, although it was not very ethical.
But Sun Yu himself said it, and it wasn't their suggestion. Even if they fought with more people against fewer, they were following the rules, not bullying others... Under the temptation of points, someone quickly convinced themselves and began to challenge Sun Yu on stage again...
Because it was the first time he was fighting two opponents simultaneously, Sun Yu's concentration was incredibly focused.
And Sun Yu's appearance, as if facing a formidable enemy, also made these first-year students once again harbor the absurd notion that they could defeat Sun Yu.
"....."
Meanwhile, while Sun Yu was fiercely battling in the Bai Zhan Arena, unbeknownst to him, all his actions within that month had been closely monitored by the academy's high-ranking officials, such as Li Qianjue.
Even all information about Sun Yu, from his birth to his enrollment in Hundred Battles Academy in the intervening years, had been thoroughly investigated by Dean Li and his subordinates.
At the same time, all of it was compiled into a booklet and placed in a drawer in Dean Li's office.
For Dean Li to review and check at any time!
On this day, Li Zhan and Dean Li Qianjue were having breakfast in a private room in the teachers' cafeteria.
"Xiaozhan, after a month of searching, do you think Sun Yu is worth it?"
"Dean, I think....."
"You scoundrel, call me Dad during private time!"
"....."
A hint of helplessness flashed in Li Zhan's eyes upon hearing this.
He then continued to speak.
"Dad, I think he's very much worth it. Haven't you already reviewed his information several times?! Sun Yu has extraordinary talent and great potential, and his Spirit evolution is reasonable and logical.
His identity and family background are clean, and the village he lives in is also clean. The grandfather who adopted him is even the village chief, and their family has a very good reputation in the village.
And most importantly, this kid Sun Yu is also nostalgic and doesn't forget his roots. After obtaining his spirit ring, he even helped the village solve its debt problems. Because of Sun Yu's influence, Saint Spirit Village's vegetable money has never been owed by those bloodsucking nobles from Nuoding City for a single day!
This treatment for Saint Spirit Village has made the villagers of several other villages who are still owed vegetable money envious. In terms of character, I believe Sun Yu is at least countless times better than Tang San, who is from the same village as him.
Although he was expelled from Notting Academy, according to my investigation, this was merely Yu Xiaogang and the dean of Notting Academy colluding, and it's nothing significant. We just need a few words to help Sun Yu change this!
Therefore, in summary, Sun Yu is a rare talent, his luck is also decent, and most importantly, he is diligent himself. You also know that he managed to intimidate the entire first-year class in just one month...."
Listening to Li Zhan's analysis, Li Qianjue remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking.
"Alright then, if that's the case, it's decided. From now on, Sun Yu's treatment in the academy will be exactly the same as those two little ones from the Jin family and the Qing family. Have someone go prepare it!"
"Okay...."
"Oh, right, remember to go find Sun Yu and tell him that if he can place in the top three in the second-year competition system at the academy's ranking competition one month from now, I will take him as my disciple...."
"Ah?! Father, you want to take him as your disciple?!"
"What, is that not allowed?! Am I, a dignified Spirit Emperor, not worthy of teaching him?!"
Li Qianjue swept a cold glance at Li Zhan and said.
"No, it's not that, I'm just worried... never mind, it's nothing. I'll go inform him now, Father..."
"Hmph, call me by my title during work. You unfilial son, how many times do I have to remind you?!"
Li Qianjue snorted.
"....."
"Yes, Dean...."
Li Zhan scratched his head, replied helplessly, and then quickly left.
Watching Li Zhan's retreating back, Li Qianjue stood up and looked at the green mountains outside, his face filled with emotion.
Although his Spirit was just an ordinary Iron Rod, he managed to improve its quality by absorbing spirit rings....
If he can continue to improve like this, it would be a very good thing for the family as well.
Sun Yu, I hope you don't disappoint me and can go even further....
On the other side, Sun Yu had just finished breakfast and was about to go to class.
He was called to the office by Li Zhan.
"Senior Li, you were looking for me?!"
"Sun Yu, you've been at Hundred Battles Academy for a month now. How do you feel about the academy?"
"It's great. The academy is beautiful, the cafeteria food is delicious, and the students get along very harmoniously. I really like it here, and I'm very fortunate to have come here...."
Sun Yu said calmly.
"Heh heh, you certainly know how to talk. Do you think I don't know that you're like a plague god in the hearts of the first-year students now, with everyone avoiding you and not daring to fight you? Tsk tsk, you've only been here for a month, and you've already caused such a stir. It seems I wasn't wrong about you....."
Li Zhan said with a faint smile, his arms crossed.
"Ah, this...."
Hearing this, Sun Yu couldn't help but awkwardly scratch his head.
After all, I can't be blamed for this; it's just that I'm too eager to improve...."
