Chapter 81: Divine Turn

Chapter 81: Divine Turn

"Then let the students all come over!"

Vice Principal Zhang said, "Perfect timing, the people from Jin University are also here, let's meet and discuss together."

"The people from Jin University are already here?"

Old Liu was a bit speechless.

They haven't even agreed here, but people from the other side have already come over, clearly indicating they won't rest until they achieve their goal.

"Yes!"

Vice Principal Zhang was actually quite troubled.

Old Liu felt uncomfortable and said, "Principal, I can understand if the student from S5 comes over, but what about the other two? Why should they take up spots?"

"Well..."

Vice Principal Zhang was somewhat at a loss for words.

Old Liu wasn't a fool either.

Seeing Vice Principal Zhang's dilemma, he guessed that the other two must have significant backgrounds, perhaps being the children of some important leaders.

Old Liu shook his head, stopped talking, took out his phone, and notified those students.

...

Chen Yegang returned to the dormitory and received a message from Old Liu.

Not only him, but Zhao Zheng and Lu Yong also received it.

"We just finished class, why did Teacher Liu suddenly ask us to go to the school meeting room?" Zhao Zheng frowned.

Lu Yong said, "I have a bad feeling about this!"

Chen Ye said, "Let's go and see first."

The three of them quickly tidied up and went to the meeting room together.

On the way, they ran into Tang Zichen, Ren Qianqian, and Cao Yu.

After asking each other, they all knew they were going to the meeting room, and they began to speculate.

"It seems that our team might be disbanded!" Cao Yu laughed at himself.

Old Liu suddenly gathered everyone, which was abnormal.

If it was for training, it wouldn't be in the school meeting room.

That's where the leaders have their meetings!

Lu Yong's face suddenly turned ugly.

He knew himself well.

If something happened to this team, he would likely be the first one out.

Then, Lu Yong seemed to think of something and his face returned to calm...

When they arrived at the meeting room.

Everyone found that there were quite a few people in the meeting room.

In addition to the school leaders and Teacher Liu, there were also several unfamiliar people.

Among them were three young people who were about the same age as them.

Two boys and a girl.

The two boys, one was tall and handsome, always wearing a faint smile, looking very sunny.

The other wore glasses, looked scholarly, and exuded an academic vibe.

But the most eye-catching was the girl.

This girl was dressed very trendy, with twin ponytails, the left side dyed blue and the right side dyed red. Her facial features weren't bad, but her face was adorned with exaggerated smoky makeup, looking quite peculiar. She kept chewing gum in her mouth, not stopping even in this serious meeting room...

To be honest, if it weren't for the university badge hanging on her chest, everyone would have thought she was a member of some club's little sister.

At this moment, Vice Principal Zhang was chatting with a strange man.

Old Liu sat aside, his face dark.

When Chen Ye and the others entered, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Come, come, let me introduce you all!"

Vice Principal Zhang stood up enthusiastically and said, "Esteemed leaders, these are our outstanding students from Wu University! This is Tang Zichen, Zhao Zheng, Chen Ye..."

After introducing Tang Zichen and the others, Vice Principal Zhang introduced the three unfamiliar young people to everyone.

"These three are the prodigies from Jin University, Wang Liang, Yu Zhengxian, and Zhao Huanhuan... Young people, get to know each other first."

The tall and handsome one was called Wang Liang.

The one with glasses was Yu Zhengxian.

Zhao Huanhuan was the trendy girl.

Almost as soon as Vice Principal Zhang finished introducing them, Wang Liang, the young man, took a step forward with a sunny smile on his face and said, "Nice to meet you all... especially Tang Zichen, I've heard your name before!"

His attitude was very proper.

There were no overstepping actions.

This disappointed Chen Ye, who had expected some melodramatic scene...

Yu Zhengxian just nodded at everyone without saying a word.

The girl named Zhao Huanhuan suddenly smiled, pointed at Wang Liang, and said to Tang Zichen, "Tang Zichen, you should be careful of this guy, I think he's here for you. This guy is not a good person. Back in high school, there were girls who had abortions and jumped off buildings because of him."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the meeting room was shocked!

Wang Liang's expression changed drastically, and he immediately cursed, "Zhao Huanhuan, what the hell is wrong with you? Why are you falsely accusing me?"

"Falsely accusing?" Zhao Huanhuan sneered, "I have a video on my phone, it's Juan'er's dying words, do you want me to play it for everyone?"

Zhao Zheng and others were a bit stunned and extremely puzzled.

Aren't these three supposed to be together? How come they're starting internal strife right from the beginning?

"I'm not interested in these things," Tang Zichen shook her head, not even glancing at Wang Liang.

Even without Zhao Huanhuan's reminder, with super potential like Chen Ye around, she wouldn't have anything to do with Wang Liang.

Wang Liang was infuriated, his face turning iron blue, glaring at Zhao Huanhuan.

He seemed on the verge of violence.

Zhao Huanhuan showed no fear.

Even though she knew about Wang Liang's influential background, she wasn't afraid.

Because her talent was her greatest confidence and her lifeline.

The leaders also looked grim, never expecting Zhao Huanhuan to deviate from the script and expose Wang Liang's dark past right from the start.

What's there to discuss?

Wu University originally didn't want students from Jin University to join, and now there was a perfect excuse.

Sure enough.

Vice Principal Zhang spoke up, "President Wu, is this true?"

He originally wanted to say: How could your Jin University recruit such morally corrupt students?

However, considering Wang Liang's family background, he swallowed back his words.

President Wu hurriedly said, "Vice Principal Zhang, we're not very clear about the specific situation, we need to go back and verify."

"In that case, I won't detain you any longer."

Afterward, President Wu took all the people from Jin University and left the office.

...

After the people from Jin University left.

The atmosphere in the meeting room immediately lightened up a lot.

"Teacher Liu, did you call us here for something?" Tang Zichen asked.

Old Liu didn't hesitate and recounted the whole incident.

Although everyone had anticipated it, they were still very displeased.

Trying to grab three spots right off the bat, Jin University's behavior was truly disgusting.

Fortunately, the little sister intervened and messed things up.

"Is the talent from S5 the guy with glasses? Named Yu something?" Cao Yu asked.

Zhao Zheng and Chen Ye also thought so.

However, Old Liu smiled and shook his head, "No, it's the girl named Zhao Huanhuan."

Everyone was astonished!

They never expected that the girl who dressed like a club's little sister would actually be the S5 talent? She didn't look like it at all!

Old Liu said, "You can't judge people solely by appearance. Zhao Huanhuan not only has strong talent but also a very solid knowledge base. When her hero talent doesn't fit, she's known as a learning genius... Last month, the artificial intelligence paper she submitted to the Science Journal was classified as a state secret."

"Some say her talent is not inferior to Academician Lu."

"Otherwise, the higher-ups wouldn't have specially issued documents for us to cooperate with Jin University."

"As for why she likes to dress like this, no one knows, maybe it's because of her rebellious personality!"

Cao Yu couldn't help but say, "Such a genius, even if she doesn't come to our Wu University, she should go to Science University! How did Jin University snatch her away?"

Old Liu was about to say something when suddenly, Vice Principal Zhang's phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, Vice Principal Zhang frowned.

After he finished the call, his face turned serious.

"Just now, the leaders called. Jin University is still unwilling to give up and wants to squeeze that Zhao Huanhuan student into your group... However, this time they're only asking for Zhao Huanhuan."

Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances.

They wanted to object, but they also knew that Zhao Huanhuan was indeed a rare talent.

Everyone had a broader perspective and knew that if Zhao Huanhuan, such a talented individual, could successfully grow, it would be greatly beneficial to the entire Xia country.

So, it was hard to refuse.

In the meeting room.

There was silence for a while.

After a moment.

Lu Yong suddenly spoke up...

"I'll withdraw then! Let Zhao Huanhuan take the spot."

Everyone was stunned, looking at Lu Yong in amazement.

Lu Yong smiled calmly, "Don't look at me like that, I'm not acting impulsively. In fact, through the first and second challenges, I've realized who I am. I'm just an ordinary person who is timid and afraid of death. In the challenge, I'm afraid of those monsters, almost always avoiding them, which is why I've always ranked at the bottom of the class and still haven't reached the first-tier strength."

"I feel like I'm just not cut out for this path."

"I was actually planning to drop out and go back to my hometown to open a small shop after the third challenge. It's fine to live an ordinary life. If the first three challenges weren't mandatory, I wouldn't even want to participate in the second challenge."

"This great opportunity, instead of giving it to me, who is so cowardly, it's better to give it to someone more important."

After hearing Lu Yong's words.

Everyone fell silent.

Indeed, if Lu Yong held such an attitude, he was truly not suitable for the challenges ahead.

The first three challenges were for newcomers and were relatively friendly.

Starting from the fourth challenge, it would become increasingly dangerous, and by then, even if one avoided the monsters, danger would still loom.

With insufficient strength, the risk of death was extremely high.

Vice Principal Zhang sighed, "Lu Yong, you're a good student who understands courtesy, the big picture, and has a sense of collective honor! Wu University is proud to have students like you!"

"I'll state it here, as long as you don't want to leave Wu University, even if you start from the fourth challenge and no longer participate in the challenges, you can still graduate successfully from Wu University."

"Wu University will always be your home!"
