Not right, she had indeed seen Luo Guanyun every day these days, but he never seemed to look her in the eye.
"Maybe Master didn’t mention me to Grandmaster Luo..."
Chen Jingyi only then realized that the conflict between Luo Meng and Luo Guanyun was bigger than she’d imagined.
"I can start with Meng Chuan—this way, I can make friends with a promising future ’Martial Extreme True Inheritance’,
and also get closer to the Grandmaster; it surely has its benefits."
It would stand to reason that she should wholeheartedly side with Master Luo Meng.
But these were the things Luo Meng had taught her.
Through words and deeds, if you want something, you must strive for it yourself.
Meanwhile, at the Northern United University’s Yong’an Campus, nestled deep within Lishan Mountain.
The principal’s office.
At this moment, no one was there; Yang Huan casually propped his legs on the desk, joyfully reporting the good news to his master.
Even though he himself was now a three-digit-aged venerable.
But having been with Principal Sui for nearly a century, his master-disciple affection was not restrained by age in the slightest.
{Master, the Yong’an campus I managed isn’t too bad, we just had eighteen people make it to the finals of the first stage.
As for that Yanhua in Yong’an, they only had ten people advance, hahaha.}
At the other end of the phone, Sui Chunqiu had just finished practicing.
{Don’t get too arrogant; an overconfident army is bound to fail. Only securing spots in the second stage counts as a minor success.}
{Understood. By the way, Master, what exactly is Great Chu intending...}
Sui Chunqiu interrupted:
{Don’t overthink it, the status of special Martial Arts Universities won’t be shaken. Moreover, this Supernova Competition is beneficial to these Martial Arts Universities of ours.}
Yang Huan nodded silently, believing that with his master at the helm, the Northern United University would only get better and better.
Then, he reported several students’ names to his master, all of whom were key cultivation prospects at the Yong’an Campus and were certain to advance to the second stage.
Sui Chunqiu nodded as he listened, until the end when he heard a familiar name.
{Are you talking about Meng Chuan? Isn’t he at the eighth gate?}
He himself also had to practice martial arts but had been having his secretary keep an eye on the competition ranking nationwide.
Especially in the southeast coastal areas, apart from ordinary level one and level two Martial Arts Universities, other special Martial Arts Universities almost undefeated if the contestants participated were no less than the ninth gate.
Even in the northern San Qin district, there were as many as twenty or thirty ninth gate contestants as well.
The rationale behind martial arts competition dictates, Meng Chuan has no reason to contend with these ninth-gate masters, right?
As soon as Meng Chuan was mentioned, Yang Huan’s posture became serious.
He sat upright and explained:
{Master, during today’s match, Meng Chuan defeated one of our departmental ninth-gate experts, it could be said... with ease.
I’m going to send you the video first, take a look.}
According to the video transmitted from the scene.
Apart from the final sneak attack targeting vital points by Ma Ziyan, which Meng Chuan got careless about, he won the entire match with a dominating stance.
Sui Chunqiu finished watching the video and asked:
{Indeed quite capable, a robust energy, and the Five Elements Fist is also pretty good.
By the way, Yang Huan, how long has Meng Chuan been at the eighth gate?}
Yang Huan pondered for a moment, then uncertainly said:
{Seems... about two months? I’m not too sure, but it might have been earlier, definitely not later.}
On the other end of the phone, Sui Chunqiu was somewhat curious.
Just entering the eighth gate and already being so capable, could he damn well beat a ninth-gate opponent?
{You have Meng Chuan’s personal information there, don’t you? Send it over to me.}
{I have it, one moment please, Master.}
Yang Huan complied; he had collected all the data when attempting to keep Meng Chuan at United University, and now could send it to his master.
After a long five minutes, Yang Huan patiently awaited a response from his master.
He thought to himself:
"If Master asks Meng Chuan to attend the main campus, then I’ll have to fight for it no matter what.
Still counting on Meng Chuan to bring glory to the Yong’an Campus, the main campus has plenty of geniuses; Master probably doesn’t lack this one, right..."
