Chapter 260 The Fourth Pet Beast! A Sensation at Imperial Capital University! Lu Da, the King of Pre
Chapter 260 The Fourth Pet Beast! A Sensation at Imperial Capital University! (Bonus Chapter by Sanxiang Grilled Fish Alliance)
A combat genius is not necessarily a potion genius.
Nurturing a genius may require complete ignorance of esoteric arts.
A genius in mechanical engineering might not even be able to properly handle the dust in civil engineering.
This is common knowledge, but there's another piece of common knowledge...
Monsters cannot be constrained by logic!
In that instant, the teachers looked at the ferocious dragon shadow. Although they did not feel any threat to their lives, they felt a sense of vicissitude and decline.
The tide of the times is rolling in, and it's about to drown out these old-timers!
If they had encountered such an opponent when they were young, they probably wouldn't have been able to sleep at night.
He rode on my head and flaunted his power for the first half of my life, but the second half...
Even after being buried, they still have to listen to their descendants tell legends about the other person; they truly die with their eyes open in disgrace!
"How did you do that?" Xiao Ling couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her.
Although she didn't use her true level of skill, only some ordinary Morning Star Limit Ritual, she used her self-created [Hundred-Pronged Structure Ritual Method] through the Pet Beast Secret Ritual Magic Pen Demon.
The labyrinthine rituals were repeatedly stacked and hung up like sharp edges, over and over a hundred times, to enhance stability. At the same time, the ritual nodes were constantly changing, transforming into an infinite labyrinth.
She could understand that Lu Yu could break through one or two, but to instantly pierce through the entire infinite maze was truly beyond her imagination.
Xiao Ling even began to doubt... whether her skill level had regressed?
To this question, Lu Yu shrugged and answered honestly:
"My intuition tells me that this is the right thing to do, at least I haven't made a mistake since I awakened my talent."
When faced with indecision, resort to metaphysics!
Since Lu Yu wanted to break into the Imperial University, he naturally had no intention of keeping a low profile.
Pretending to be weak to fool others will only lead to being mistaken for a real pig and eaten by others!
He had no background, no family, and no powerful elders, so he could only suppress his peers in a high-profile manner in order to gain the attention and resources of the alliance and grow rapidly!
Anyway, there are many speculations online about his bloodline and talent, and some have even written storylines for him, which Lu Yu himself feels he can directly copy and apply.
Moreover, he did indeed unlock the Key of Truth and obtain the [Master of the Gate] talent only after awakening his talent.
If necessary, Lu Yu wouldn't mind acknowledging an ancestor, since there would be benefits to be gained and it could also conceal his Eye of Truth and Secret Food abilities.
why not?
As for... if some descendants of ancient kings want to steal his title, or come to him for benefits, and make him act like a grandson...
Lu Yu would first try to persuade them with kind words, but if they didn't listen, he would have no choice but to reluctantly clean house for his "ancestors"!
"..." Upon hearing this answer, Xiao Ling swallowed back all the words she had wanted to say. She fell silent.
I thought Lu Yu would say it was some kind of advanced pupil technique that saw through the weaknesses of the ritual, or some kind of skill that targeted the ritual.
But unexpectedly... they relied entirely on their intuition!
It's like a struggling student asking a top student for help, only to be told, "It's just like this, it's very simple," and then getting the answer, leaving the student completely outshone!
Having talent means you can do whatever you want!
Xiao Ling was greatly discouraged. She waved her hand weakly and said, "You passed the Mystic Arts Department's assessment!"
The creation of secret treasures requires systematic learning, so using it as an exam question is deliberately designed to make things difficult.
Besides, there's no reason to pass up such a genius. We have to grab him first, no matter what!
So what if you want to do both? Men just like things in large quantities, like double... something like that, can they all fly?
As long as my liver can handle it!
"Success again!"
The other four teachers understood perfectly; they had long sensed that Lu Yu's growth rate was abnormal.
Considering Lu Yu's powerful ability to conquer secret realms, leaving no trace of Lu Yu in his wake, and his current ability to decipher secret rituals, it can be inferred that it is most likely some kind of intuitive ability similar to precognition.
He can see some of the correct direction, and with the added boost of wisdom and comprehension, he and his pet's learning ability can improve by leaps and bounds!
Which ancient king's law is involved here?
Logically speaking, shouldn't they be unknown?
"The blond guy from the secret realm truly lives up to his reputation!"
Mao Guixian's smile widened, already looking forward to Lu Yu's performance after joining the potion department.
Don't actually think that girls in the Potions department are all naive and innocent who will fawn over any man they meet.
In reality, each of them would be a goddess that countless people could only dream of, the chosen ones selected by the entire alliance!
While men are lustful, women are even more so, especially since Lu Yu's looks surpass those of male succubi.
It's not certain who will suffer a loss.
They're just a bit more realistic.
After all, Lu Yu's genes are a good research project; perhaps they can be used to develop more interesting magic potions to enhance one's strength.
So sometimes, boys also need to protect themselves when they're out!
Yue Hao adjusted his glasses and said, "Next, there might be multiple versions that evolve, eventually becoming the ancient relic, the blond-haired one!"
He had a vague feeling that Lu Yu could inject tremendous vitality into the now stagnant archaeology department!
Let the archaeology department shine once again!
Li Shu was somewhat depressed because he discovered... this kid was really good at pretending!
Lu Yu hasn't even enrolled yet, and he's already threatening my position as the number one cool guy at Imperial University.
"This kid is got the makings of a warrior!" Shang Yuguang couldn't help but exclaim, his gaze towards the other man growing increasingly satisfied.
A commander doesn't need to be omnipotent; it's enough if he can put the right people in the right positions.
Very few people can do that!
However, an all-around commander can make the legion exert several times its power and bring unimaginable combat strength!
For example, when you are trapped in a secret realm, the fighting spirit you display when commanding your subordinates to break through the secret realm is completely different from when you lead them to break through the secret realm!
In addition, Lu Yu's most famous tactics of bullying the weak, his ruthless command style, his unwavering mentality, and his focus on all interests can greatly reduce the casualty rate. He is definitely the kind of leader that most soldiers dream of!
Born to be a commander!
"We may have to cross over into other fields in the future..." Shang Yuguang thought of some confidential information, and a look of anticipation flashed in his eyes.
If it were Lu Yu, he might be able to catch up with that batch!
However, after the esoteric arts were conquered, the entire assessment atmosphere...
Things have suddenly become a bit strange!
Li Shu and Shang Yuguang exchanged a glance, seeing the awkwardness in each other's eyes, and understood what was going on.
Because Lu Yu has shown enough talent, possessing expertise in archaeology, potions, and occult arts, if the exam questions are too difficult and drive people away, it will be the other way around, not him, who will suffer the loss.
If I go back, the department head will definitely tear me apart!
Moreover, if this blond guy were in another department, who knows how he would target other students, and he might even be complained about by students in his own department!
However, if the questions are too easy, it could be seen as a cover-up, affecting the reputation of the university and resulting in the president fining the student and impacting future bonuses.
He's the scapegoat both ways...
This is a difficult task!
Li Shu glanced at Shang Yuguang, preparing to learn from his experience, and asked in a low voice:
How do you plan to assess me?
"What? You have to take the test first?" Shang Yuguang suddenly raised his voice, attracting everyone's attention, and they all looked at the bewildered Li Shu.
"Son of a bitch!"
The latter instantly realized what was happening, looked at this scoundrel, and thought, "He's really ruthless!"
They actually used him to scout ahead!
Although he was furious, Li Shu forced a smile to maintain his composure and said:
"Yes, I've already thought of the exam questions; they'll be about pet breeding!"
Because he knew about Lu Yu's life and his methods for cultivating peach pigs.
A postpartum care manual for Taozhu (a childbirth expert) may seem crude and simple, but the knowledge points it contains are extremely targeted.
The fact that ordinary people can participate, reduce costs, and develop a complete cultivation industry chain is already invaluable.
Lu Yu also knew how to use the peach blossom frog ecosystem to construct the peach pig ecosystem, forming a combined circular ecosystem!
The number of times and quantities of food prepared and fed during the first month postpartum may seem like ordinary numbers, but behind them are countless meticulous observations.
Only trainers understand the hardships involved!
So this time, Li Shu's test question was about Muxu Horse.
This is a new species discovered in recent years while clearing out wilderness. It is a special pet animal born in the forest woody ecosystem. Its size is not much different from that of an ordinary horse, but it has no fur and is covered with long tree roots, making it look like an exquisite handmade wood carving.
Mushu is gentle by nature, can survive on tree roots and water, can travel thousands of miles a day without stopping, and most importantly, is very obedient to the strong and follows orders.
Therefore, it was favored by the Alliance, who felt it could be used to transport military supplies that were not suitable for mechanical transport over long distances.
However, these pets face numerous difficulties in artificial breeding. For some unknown reason, they are always susceptible to a plant disease that causes mass deaths or stunted growth, resulting in heavy losses for many breeding bases.
At this point, Li Shu frowned and said:
"My students removed the wood-sucking insects that parasitized them and absorbed their spiritual energy, and simulated the nutrients, light, humidity, etc. in the ecosystem. They thought that the nutrients were too abundant, but after reducing the proportion, they still contracted [wood gall syndrome], a special disease caused by excessive wood spiritual energy."
The whiskers on Mushu's body would tangle together, forming a strange tumor that would grow larger and larger, eroding Mushu's spirit and eventually causing it to decay and rot like a dead tree due to the excessive burden.
Li Shu was quite helpless about the species Muxu horse.
The main problem was that he had too many projects to work on and no time to study such a low-level species. Even his own students couldn't figure it out, so he simply used it as an assessment question for Lu Yu.
Of course, it's not about asking Lu Yu to solve it all at once, but rather about using his special "intuition" to suggest one or two directions for exploration.
As long as he doesn't deviate too much and manages to get by, he's considered to have won!
"good!"
Lu Yu nodded, then made a request:
"May I visit the habitat of the Mushu horse?"
"no problem!"
Li Shu readily agreed. If Lu Yu found a problem without even looking at it, then he would be the one with the biggest problem!
So the group went to the Forest Ecological Base affiliated with Imperial Capital University and saw a large number of sickly Mushu horses with galls on their backs, already on the verge of death.
Lu Yu observed for several hours, and after reviewing the ecological records and videos of the Muxu horse, he finally spoke:
"Teacher Li, did you remove the pests from them?"
Li Shu nodded, understanding his meaning, then shook his head and said:
"Are you trying to say that wood-sucking insects are part of the ecological structure? Unfortunately, we also tried adding these insects during the complete restoration process, hoping that they would absorb the diseased wood spirit from the galls, but it didn't have much effect. The galls didn't disappear; in fact, they got worse. On the contrary, the survival rate was slightly higher after they were removed."
"Have you considered their natural enemies?"
Lu Yu pointed to an ecological documentary video showing a flock of birds with metallic feathers that prey on wood-sucking insects. The birds looked like golden birds, and when they spread their wings, they resembled sharp blades.
They are called Golden-winged Woodpeckers, a type of bird-like creature born in a metallic ecosystem. They like to flit among various trees and catch wood-based spiritual insects for food.
They fly through the jungle, catching and eating wood-sucking insects from the wood-eating horse, often pecking small holes in them. Ordinary trees that encounter them are doomed.
They would also defecate while standing on the horse's back, dropping feces that resembled metal particles, which would then entangle around the roots of the horse.
As Mushu the horse moves, it will be thrown off and fall into the grass and trees.
Because the Golden-winged Woodpecker belongs to the Metal Ecosystem, not the Woodbeard Ecosystem, and there are several other similar pets that appear in Woodbeard Ecosystem hunting, it is not particularly eye-catching.
Furthermore, there are no scenes of Mushu horse directly absorbing metal particles, so it was not included in the ecosystem development.
"You mean it's related to these metal-eating woodpeckers?"
Li Shu became interested upon hearing this, and after observation, he found that the area where these metallic bird droppings were located had significantly less vegetation than the surrounding area.
Bad news: It contains metallic spiritual energy, which affects the growth of plants!
Good news: Metal's spirituality is very weak and is neutralized by the wood element; it only works if there is a sufficient quantity.
Li Shu was just one step away from becoming a master breeder. Although he didn't have time to study the Mushu horse topic in depth, his own level was not low. With a quick thought, he deduced the feasibility in an instant.
He sighed, "I never imagined that you could find the problem in just a few hours about a topic that had been troubling my student for so long!"
The other teachers also looked over, quite curious.
Li Shu explained, "The source of the wood gall syndrome is that the wood-type spiritual energy is too strong, which is a special kind of mutation. However, it is less harmful. After all, demons can also mutate, but they are more tolerant than humans."
Metal is a common sense in combat, and this can also be seen from the fact that where metal veins are concentrated, vegetation is sparse.
My students had also discovered this before, and even tried to create an environment using metal-type rituals, but the result was that the wood-type pets felt uncomfortable and their personalities gradually became irritable. In severe cases, it could even cause malignant metal mutations, so they gave up on this approach. Unexpectedly... this is the right way, it just needs a medium!
The golden-winged woodpecker, by pecking at wood-sucking insects and digesting them, leaves behind droppings containing a mixture of metal and wood essences. These droppings have lost most of their metallic sharpness. When their numbers accumulate to a certain level, they create something akin to a natural magnetic field, beginning to inhibit the growth of vegetation, though this effect is not immediately noticeable.
Yue Hao raised a question: "How do wild tribes maintain a suitable amount of magnetic field?"
"Because of wood-sucking worms!"
Li Shu sighed, "The larger the size of the Wood-Eating Horse, the more Wood-Sucking Insects it carries, and the larger the flock of Golden-Winged Woodpeckers it attracts. During the pecking process, the woody bodies of the Wood-Eating Horse are damaged, making it more susceptible to interference from the metal-type spiritual magnetic field. This prevents it from condensing a large amount of wood-type spiritual energy, thus hindering its growth. In fact, there are several other metal-type pets that can play a similar role. The most crucial thing is..."
They are alive, and if they feel uncomfortable, they will migrate on their own, thus losing their chance in the breeding base.
Introducing pets from other ecosystems to interfere with native pets—nature truly is the best teacher!
Li Shu sighed as he spoke.
If it were him conducting the research, he could also discover these patterns within a few months, but he couldn't do what Lu Yu did, pinpointing the root of the problem in just a few hours.
This directly solved the problem of breeding Mushu horses, indirectly adding a new type of pet beast for transporting supplies. Compared to the mechanical costs of the Mechanical King Domain, it is lower and can be widely used by civilians.
This enhances the overall strength of the human race!
The keen observation skills demonstrated here cannot be explained by intuition alone!
Thinking of this, Li Shu looked at Lu Yu and said:
"Once the subsequent experiments and verifications are completed, I will transfer the relevant credits to your student account. These credits can be used to exchange for some special resources collected by Imperial University and to enter some secret realms."
It was called verification, but it was really just a formality. Li Shu's level of expertise was already enough to endorse Lu Yu.
After all, he's already one of us.
Lu Yu had already earned a lot of credits before even enrolling, putting him far ahead of many senior students!
"Thank you, teacher!"
Lu Yu expressed his gratitude. In fact, he had seen the answer through the Eye of Truth the moment he arrived at the Mushu Horse Breeding Base, but he went through the formalities to avoid frightening the teachers.
The power of a small portion of omniscient authority is unimaginable to mortals.
Of the five departments, four have already been connected!
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Shang Yuguang.
"Perfect timing, I can't wait either!"
The latter sighed, then suddenly appeared in front of Lu Yu in a flash.
People arrive first, then their voices follow:
"Although I am not from the Douwang Domain, a qualified commander and the leader of the legion must never be killed by decapitation tactics."
So I switched to the Possession skill tree halfway through, using the [Ice-Skinned Banshee] to temper my skin, the [Jade Bone Dragon] to temper my spine, and the [Windwalker Spirit] to refine my legs. My hands are... However, from now on, I won't use my pet's full power. I'll rely solely on my physique and my own spiritual energy, probably at the limit of the Morning Star level. As for what I'm best at...”
"leg!"
The sound was mixed with the explosions, sounding ethereal and giving Lu Yu the feeling of facing a storm alone, unable to open his eyes.
Click click click!
All that could be vaguely seen was... Shang Yuguang with his hands in his pockets, one leg raised high like a battle axe guillotine. His powerful physique created a sonic boom, a howling wind, and a cloud of dust. The materialized wind scythe tore through the earth and rushed towards Lu Yuli.
Whoohoo!
This was Lu Yu's first time facing a Radiant Moon Realm opponent head-on. Even though the opponent was only using spiritual puzzle pieces and physical strength, the extreme pressure still made him feel like he couldn't breathe.
The threat of death looms over all sides!
Like a lone boat, standing on a raging sea.
The air around us is getting thinner and thinner!
boom!
Egg's dragon armor transformed into countless dragon scales and bone spikes, instantly covering his entire body. Hundreds of eyes opened on the ferocious dragon armor, and together with the Eye of Truth, it gave him a powerful super-dynamic capture vision.
The drifting dust, the swirling weeds, and the pebbles suddenly stopped at that moment!
It's as if the world has been put on pause!
However, a leg shadow still slashed vertically like a long sword, so fast it was breathtaking in this slowed-down view!
"The Forty-Two-Armed Sacred Nagarjuna!"
Lu Yu's mind was clear and empty. Behind him, a sacred dragon tree with forty-two arms was projected. Thirty-six dragon demon arms and six sacred dragon arms intertwined and transformed into a giant toad shape, existing between light and darkness, breathing as if it were a living creature...
Exhale!
boom!
The pure white light of the giant toad swept out and collided with the storm stirred up by Shang Yuguang, instantly unleashing a strong spiritual energy fluctuation. However, it was quickly blocked by the ritual structure set up by Xiao Ling and did not spread out.
"Great Sage Tree Spear!"
The arms behind Lu Yu converged, transforming into three pure white spears that pierced through the enemy.
"Not bad!"
Shang Yuguang commented, casually dodging the attack as if strolling in a garden. He lightly leaped up, shattering the Great Sage Tree Spear in mid-air with a single kick. Using the momentum, he blurred into a blur as he rushed forward, raising his leg again to warn:
"**Guillotine Leg!**"
"Why is the move even muted!" Lu Yu thought to himself, quickly responding as a large number of dragon tree arms covered the void, intertwining to form a shield.
"Great Dragon Tree Shield!"
boom!
With a swift kick, like a guillotine, it tore apart the Great Dragon Tree Shield in an instant, sending countless fragments of dragon tree roots flying before returning to nothingness.
Just as Shang Yuguang was about to press his advantage, he tilted his head to dodge the Great Sage Tree Spear, only to encounter a black and red figure.
Blood-red ribbons fluttered, and a vast dragon aura swirled around the perfectly streamlined body, intertwining with boiling blood and qi, reflecting a phantom of an ancient star field.
However, this time, there was an additional different scene!
A blood-red ring confines the starry sky, scorching the life force!
boom!
With a spurt of his ant-like foot, he met Shang Yuguang's fist in a fistfight.
"What incredible strength!"
Although he repelled the Black Crimson Dragon Ant, its terrifying power left him feeling numb.
At the same time, deep red light shone down from the star field projection, making Shang Yuguang feel his blood and qi burning rapidly, and his strength flowing away at a rapid pace.
"This is... the Great Crimson Ape King's Secret Martial Art!" Shang Yuguang's pupils shrank, naturally recognizing the ability of this natural counter to martial artists in the Secret Martial Art world. However, he didn't expect the Secret Food, since in everyone's eyes, Lu Yu had already mastered all the Secret Martial Arts, including the three Origin Secret Martial Arts, so it wasn't surprising that he could learn them.
Shang Yuguang was surprised by Lu Yu's terrifying learning ability, which might also have an effect on his pet beast, helping it learn the Great Crimson Ape King's Secret Martial Arts!
Even beast tamers who possess spirits can be disturbed!
"But that's far from enough..."
Shang Yuguang chuckled lightly, his own spiritual puzzle trembling slightly, forcibly dispelling the influence of the Great Crimson Ape King's aura. He then repelled the attacking Black Crimson Dragon Ants with a single punch, gradually retreating as he calmly said:
"The difference in rank cannot be so easily bridged. The spirituality of a beast tamer is far beyond what a martial artist can match..."
Before he could finish speaking, he noticed that the surrounding void had been filled with countless spider silk threads, densely packed, like a giant void insect-catching net.
Covering all directions!
At the same time, an invisible and intangible spatial anomaly occurred in the sky. This space, which wriggled like flesh and blood, produced countless slender arms that clenched in the air and condensed into hundreds of spider silk swords, surrounded by boiling blood-corroding sword energy.
A crimson sword aura storm is about to unleash its power!
"Heavenly Toad Aura!"
Lu Yu gathered the energy of the Heavenly Toad, which roared in mingled with the breath of a dragon!
boom!
The Aurora Red Dragon Ants also spread the Great Red Ape King's aura, and the Dragon King's Skull, one of the Thousand Faces Armaments, condensed the Flesh and Blood Disintegration Ray.
This completely cut off all of Shang Yuguang's escape routes!
"That was ruthless!"
Shang Yuguang was also speechless. Although he did not mention the rules, Lu Yu really did use the tactic of encirclement and attack, which was a bullying tactic!
Judging from this setup, he started preparing to ambush me from the very beginning when he entered this training base!
"What a cunning little bastard!"
Shang Yuguang laughed and cursed, then raised his leg again, unleashing a vast surge of spiritual energy that transformed into a gigantic guillotine phantom, the blade shrouded in black mist revealing its sharp edge!
"Black Death Guillotine Leg!"
This is a fighting technique taught by his teacher, who is also the head of the combat department. The reason he is embarrassed to shout it out is because the pronunciation of the word "death" is not accurate; it is actually pronounced with the first tone...
Click!
The massive guillotine slashed down instantly, shattering several attacks, and a terrifying surge of spiritual energy swept through, impacting the ritual!
The violent tremors amazed Xiao Ling. This kid is indeed a monster!
Whoohoo!
As the smoke cleared, Lu Yu looked at the unharmed Shang Yuguang and said to the little spiders:
"Use plans 2, 3, and 7!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several teachers' lips twitched. Just how many plans had this kid prepared?
It feels like it's at least in the double digits!
"..."
Shang Yuguang was speechless; they really thought he was the BOSS and were trying to kill him.
However, looking at the aggressive Lu Yu, he raised his hand and pressed it into the air, calmly saying:
"You passed the test!"
Click!
All skills shattered and dissipated as psionic energy.
A large amount of spider silk was drawn from the sky, the ground, the trees, and even the stones by the roadside, making Shang Yuguang's eyelids twitch.
Finally, even the insects by the roadside were covered with spider web traps.
After withdrawing all his methods, Lu Yu said with a smile:
"The pressure from the teacher was immense, but luckily I had plenty of backup plans, otherwise I would have lost by a hair's breadth."
Several teachers rolled their eyes and ignored his Versailles remarks.
However, they did acknowledge Lu Yu's abilities!
It's unbelievable that he hasn't even advanced to Morning Star yet!
What will it be like when they accept the transformation of the mother river? Will even he and his teachers get slapped?
Thinking of this, Mao Guixian suddenly spoke up:
"By the way... do you know what the prize for first place is?"
Lu Yu shook his head, knowing only that it was very precious, but not knowing any specific details.
Mao Guixian rolled her eyes at him and said:
"You brat, you don't seem to care about anything, but since you haven't advanced to Morning Star yet, you can't form a contract with it!"
"A contract? It's a pet beast?" Lu Yu caught the key point of the information.
Mao Guixian nodded and said enviously:
"It's an extremely special pet beast; if I had to describe it, I'd say it possesses potential no less than that of a giant!"
"What!?"
..........................................
Imperial Capital University, Freshman Hall.
Many freshmen had already gathered below the stage and formed different teams according to their respective departments.
Crimson Lotus, dressed in a striking outfit, looked dashing and her long legs were still visible despite the loose clothing. Standing at the head of the combat class, her expression kept changing.
In fact, she had been preparing to tell her sister these past two days that she was going to the Phoenix Nest with Lu Yu, but every time she tried to say it, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
Just thinking about the possible comic book plot and the secret agreement that Lu Yu and I made behind my sister's back was exciting.
Perhaps it's retribution, but these past two days she's been communicating with Lu Yu in her dreams, and has benefited greatly from it.
She could clearly feel that her energy was depleted and her spirits were low, which made her even more convinced that this was Lilith's dark trick.
After all, how could she, as a dignified succubus queen, have her life force drained for no reason?
But because the sense of guilt in my heart grew stronger and I was too ashamed to speak up, I could only put it off until now.
"Luckily, my sister is very innocent and won't pry into things..." This was the first time that Akatsuki Honglian felt so fortunate; her younger sister was truly innocent and adorable.
If it were Akatsuki Hiyori, she would have already started questioning him!
Not far away, Akatsuki stood in the Potions Department team, like a snow lotus on a high mountain, aloof and cold, attracting frequent glances from the boys.
No matter how many times I watch it, I'm always amazed.
But no one dared to ask for their contact information; they only dared to observe from afar, not to provoke them!
Girls like that probably have cold hearts, right?
However, at this moment, the "cold" Akatsuki Dream... was in a daze!
I wasn't thinking about Lu Yu, but about the Crimson Moon Lotus!
She's just emotionally detached, not stupid; she's already noticed her sister's recent...
has a problem!
It's like there's something you're finding hard to talk about!
Every time she saw herself, her desire surged, and her succubus tail rose high, just like when she saw Lu Yu.
"Why... are you so excited?" Akatsuki Yume asked, somewhat puzzled.
But considering how much her sister had taken care of her, she felt she had to reciprocate, and decided to secretly follow her next time to see if she could offer any help...
"Where did Lu Yu go?"
Tong Ye and Mu Mu stayed in the Mystic Arts Department and the Nurturing Department respectively, curiously looking around, searching for Lu Yu's figure.
I'm really curious which department this guy will choose.
As for Yu Xiyan, dressed in a Chanel-inspired, sophisticated style, she attracted a lot of attention as she stood in the relatively spacious area for new archaeology students.
After all, such a beautiful and powerful girl actually chose a major in the field of sinkholes, which made the civil engineering students next door extremely jealous.
Therefore, someone risked a fierce battle with the archaeology department to poach her, inviting Yu Xiyan to their department.
But before he could even utter a word, the mere instant their eyes met, he felt a chill run down his spine, as if some of his secrets had been laid bare!
He swallowed back whatever he was about to say.
Yu Xiyan didn't care about this. Except when facing Lu Yu, she always had this lazy and boring smile.
Only he can illuminate the darkness on his path!
After waiting for about ten minutes, teachers from various departments arrived, and Shang Yuguang, Xiao Ling, and others also entered.
However, instead of the polite welcome from colleagues, they were met with angry stares from the teachers of the other departments.
These five guys actually pulled a sneaky escape trick.
That's despicable!
However, they were puzzled that none of them had brought Lu Yu with them.
Could it be that the blockade failed?
Thinking of this, the teachers from the other departments were delighted, and hope also arose in their hearts.
As long as it's not completely certain, there's still hope!
"madness!"
Shang Yuguang and the others simply smiled and remained silent when they saw this scene.
Because that bastard Lu Yu has been holding back a royal flush!
The freshman ceremony proceeded smoothly, but when it came time for representatives from each department to speak, it wasn't Yu Xiyan who took the stage when it was the Archaeology Department's turn, but rather...
Lu Yu!
Dressed in all black, with a neat and refreshing look and a smile on her lips, she slowly walked onto the stage, causing many people to widen their eyes in surprise.
"Damn it!"
The teachers from the other departments glared at Yue Hao through gritted teeth, realizing that this bespectacled guy had beaten them to it!
"Show-off!"
Wang Yan and Li Yonglian, sitting in the audience, couldn't help but purse their lips as they looked at the handsome Lu Yu.
Although this guy is a scoundrel, I have to admit he's a little bit more handsome than them!
This face truly represents the ultimate symbolism of steel wool.
"Lu Yu, that blondie, really went into archaeology!"
"It seems that the ancient ruins are probably real. Otherwise, how could this greedy guy choose to dig up graves, which has no future?"
"The archaeology students are in danger now. Knowing Lu Yu's personality, he might turn them into sacrifices or materials for opening tombs any day!"
"I think we could stock up on cemetery plots and sell them to archaeology students; we could make a fortune."
"The casualty rate in the archaeology department has reached another level!"
"Is this guy going to demolish all the ruins and tombs like he did when he raided the secret realm?"
"..."
The crowd below the stage was buzzing with discussion, and many new and returning students breathed a sigh of relief.
"Very good!"
The freshmen in the combat department were overjoyed, feeling that the incense they burned yesterday had really worked, and now they wouldn't have to suffer from Lu Yu's bullying tactics!
The potion department, on the other hand, was polarized. The senior students looked regretful, unable to conduct in-depth research on Lu Yu's few dozen grams of genes.
The freshmen were relieved that they didn't have to worry about this guy ruining the department's reputation, or that he'd come up with another aphrodisiac!
The esoteric and nurturing systems reacted similarly.
We've narrowly escaped disaster!
"Ahem, good afternoon everyone. It's an honor to be standing on this stage today..."
Lu Yu coughed lightly and began to speak under everyone's gaze. In short, he thanked the Alliance, the Borderlands, and the Archaeology Department.
This is the simplest and most sincere way to express gratitude for paid services.
The group of freshmen were drowsy listening to the lecture. If it weren't for the psychological trauma Lu Yu had inflicted on them, some of them would probably have already started clamoring for the next person to speak.
Fortunately, each person only had five minutes to speak, and soon it was time to discuss the esoteric arts.
Surprisingly, however, they did not leave.
"What's this guy doing? Is he trying to lose?"
While they were wondering, they heard Lu Yu repeat his statement, only this time he changed the department from archaeology to esoteric arts.
At that moment, everyone sensed that something was wrong, however...
Lu Yu hasn't left yet!
Continue with the speeches by representatives of the new students from the Nurturing, Potions, and Combat departments!
"What happened?"
At this moment, all the freshmen, along with many teachers from the Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering departments, stared blankly at Lu Yu's speech.
My brain is a complete mess; I'm not quite sure what's going on.
Lu Yu... which department is he in?
A five-surname servant bought with money?
The other teachers looked at Shang Yuguang and the others, only to find that the latter had already maintained a smile and nodded slightly.
To ease the tension, Mao Guixian said:
"Lu Yu belongs to everyone!"
His words were so outrageous that they instantly caused a stir in the entire venue!
Are you kidding me!
One person is in charge of five departments!
"Isn't this a bit too greedy? Can he even keep up with all that learning?" Tong Ye's first thought was, "Does Lu Yu really have enough energy?"
"interesting!"
Mu Mu's eyes lit up; Lu Yu's unexpected show-off tactics were perfect for joining the disciple support group.
I must talk to him today!
"This guy always gives me a fright!"
Although Chi Yue Hong Lian had some guesses, seeing this scene in person made her realize that she hadn't thought things through enough.
As for Chi Yue Meng, ripples appeared in her eyes.
By also studying potions, I can see Lu Yu more often!
Could you ask him to... find out what trouble my sister is in?
However, before many candidates could raise any questions, accompanied by a buzzing sound, a bee-shaped drone landed and projected the scene of Lu Yu undergoing his assessment today.
Seeing through the shadows of history, replicating a basic potion after only ten viewings, forcefully shattering an infinite maze constructed with hundreds of mystical rituals, conquering a subject that stumped even seasoned students in the nurturing department in just a few hours, and...
They faced off against a Moonlit Beastmaster in his pure physical form and achieved a draw!
Every obstacle was an insurmountable barrier for them!
But Lu Yu easily stepped over it!
"What kind of monster is this?!"
"Damn, I can console myself when I lose a fight by saying everyone has different strengths, but nobody told me that Lu Yu is good at everything!"
"I'm totally losing it. What's wrong with this guy's brain? Doesn't the Cult of Evil Gods want to study him?"
"Are you kidding? Even the evil god cult is afraid of being captured and studied by him, okay?"
"Is this guy definitely not some divine child favored by a great being?"
"But why did he choose five departments and not civil engineering?"
"Civil engineering students aren't qualified to join the discussion, go to hell!"
"Your healing persona isn't much better!"
"..."
The scene immediately erupted in excitement. No matter how jealous they were, they could only swallow their words when faced with that series of images.
Faced with absolute strength, all doubts seem so pale!
Lu Yu's fists were bigger than theirs!
Several professors, including those from the Civil Engineering Department, were also dumbfounded!
My teeth feel so sensitive they're about to fall out.
I've already studied five different majors, so why...?
They shouldn't be included!
As a man, wouldn't it be better to be more compassionate?
In reality, Lu Yu was just used to lifting the roof first, and then opening a window after Shang Yuguang and the others gave in.
Five departments were already the limit of his energy; any more would probably cause conflicts with his classes, which would simply be a waste of time.
And then there's the Civil Engineering department... well... even a dog wouldn't go there!
Most importantly, Lu Yu's core ability is the Secret Food; everything else is just a means to acquire resources and accelerate growth. We cannot put the cart before the horse!
Faced with the noisy atmosphere, Lu Yu slowly raised his hand, instantly silencing the entire venue.
Shang Yuguang and the others also followed Lu Yu's lead and put on a show, secretly feeling very pleased with themselves.
Wow, showing off can be this fun!
I'm really looking forward to seeing what this kid does next.
Lu Yu slowly said, "Actually, I'm a bit of a socially awkward person. I've already said enough, and nobody likes to hear nonsense, so I'll just keep it brief..."
"These five departments' freshmen are under my protection, so I hope everyone won't make things difficult for me!"
The five departments paid money, and Lu Yu provided them with the highest level of service!
After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.
Everyone, including the teachers, stared in disbelief at the figure on the stage...
A long chapter of 12,000 words, a bonus chapter from the "Fragrant Grilled Fish Alliance Leader" is here. I can't keep up with this lately, please vote with monthly tickets. It's quite exhausting. By the way, I'd like to recommend another author's book.
