The throne challenge begins, and resounding cheers and shouts like tsunamis occasionally erupt across the campus of Red Cloud University.
So students and ntors, who haven’t gone to watch the event live, aren’t surprised, as they’re already used to it.
Every year, the throne challenge is a visual feast for the audience, a thousand tis more exciting and atmospheric than any previous celebrity concert.
Yet these cheers and shouts, compared to the gathering of geniuses two years ago, the most dazzling in Red Cloud University’s history, have greatly diminished.
You should know, the screams for ’Wind God’ and ’Emperor Kai’ ignited Red Cloud University back then.
Today, while there are so loud nas of geniuses being chanted, there isn’t the grand spectacle of thousands shouting in unison, as no genius has erged to make people’s blood boil.
"The throne challenge is just a warm-up, and in half a month, the national university Glory Battle will begin, that’s the real excitent."
On the campus path, a student said, with a tone of excitent and envy.
The national university Glory Battle is held every two years, and teams in the top three qualify to participate in the world university Glory Battle.
The world university Glory Battle, like the world Glory Battle, represents more than just a simple competition.
It’s a showcase of a nation’s strength!
Moreover, it concerns the supply of resources between nations, the division of disputed regions in other-dinsional spaces, and discourse power, among other things.
"Indeed, the Glory Battle is the battle for super geniuses. Today’s throne challenge is just minor happenings within the campus."
"I wonder what rank Red Cloud will achieve this year. Last ti, we ranked fourth and didn’t even secure a main spot in the national team!"
"Third place is hopeful, but winning the championship is impossible. Red Cloud University has never won a championship. This year, Great Wall University is said to be the strongest in a decade, terrifyingly strong."
Many students discussed among each other.
The national university Glory League is the stage all university students aspire to.
But only super geniuses qualify to participate.
Red Cloud University, with more than sixty thousand students, has only eight qualified participants.
Among these eight, five are main team mbers, and three are substitutes.
Normally, substitutes rarely have a chance to perform, or only against so weaker teams when main mbers need to conserve energy.
Yet despite this, countless individuals vie for even a substitute position.
Because, it’s not just about glory, it represents benefits.
As long as one can participate, even as a substitute, there are substantial resource subsidies.
So resources and treatnts aren’t purchasable, even with money.
For example, the Spiritual Power Pool baptism, is far more precious than the Demon Blood Pool baptism.
Even the Glory Race has only two such slots annually.
Main team mbers have even rarer precious demon spirit rewards.
If they achieve a top three position, there’s a chance to join the national team and participate in world events.
National cultivation, treasures of the nation, imagine how precious that would be.
Various advanced pills, advanced cultivation techniques, advanced spiritual artifacts, and Purple Gold soul skills are standard rewards, even Diamond soul skills aren’t impossible.
Diamond soul skills!
No one at Red Cloud University possesses such high-level soul skills.
Many Soul King powerhouses don’t have Diamond soul skills.
If one truly absorbs a Diamond soul skill, they can indeed say they’ve reached the peak of their life.
Student Union office area.
In previous years, during the throne challenge, mbers of the Student Union would go watch in person, selecting promising talents. But today, sothing more important has erged.
That’s the Jianghu Martial Arts Club.
Two years ago, Jianghu Martial Arts Club was obscure, and not many had heard of it.
Back then, Jianghu Martial Arts Club was rely an adventure team.
Because the captain was Yun Kai, and the therapist was the Sea Demoness Little Sister Dong, their fa spread among students, drawing many to join the adventure team.
Back then, the Student Union also paid attention.
However, since the adventure team only recruited mbers and restricted its activities to other-dinsional space gates, it didn’t attract much attention.
It wasn’t until a year ago that Jianghu Martial Arts Club spent tens of billions to settle in the comrcial district that people realized that this adventure team with just sixteen mbers was quite remarkable.
Apart from the original five mbers led by Yun Kai, including the ek Yue Mingming, the remaining ten were called the Ten Great Vajra.
These ten were not only top talents ranked on the Wind and Cloud Chart, but also boasted prestigious backgrounds, either from the Glory Race or noble families, or as scions of major financial conglorates.
It is precisely through these connections and substantial funding that Jianghu Martial Arts Club rapidly expanded, and the Student Union’s swift suppression had little effect.
Now, Jianghu Martial Arts Club has beco the second largest student force, seriously threatening the interests and prestige of the Student Union!
In Red Cloud’s comrcial street, one-tenth of the storefronts, through investnt or direct operation, are controlled by Jianghu Martial Arts Club, impacting the Student Union’s business.
And this impact is significant.
So shops closed down due to competition.
For the past six months, the Student Union’s revenue has been declining month by month.
Nowadays, students choosing clubs no longer prioritize joining the Student Union, as Jianghu Martial Arts Club seems more attractive.
With ancestral demonization, refining the Earth Chart Golden Lion King, Yun Kai is a nationally renowned super genius, recognized as the future Glory child.
Yun Kai’s fa is too great!
Not just in Red Cloud University, but throughout the nation, nobody can compare.
Just like Ye Qiu of Great Wall University, Yun Kai has beco the emblem of Red Cloud University, idolized by many students.
In half a year, one-third of the geniuses from sophomore and junior years on the Wind and Cloud Chart have joined the Jianghu Martial Arts Club.
If the situation doesn’t change soon, in another year or so, the student council might no longer be the leading student power at Red Cloud University.
"What response did we get from Yun Kai’s side?"
Originally the head of the combat departnt, Yang Ningbing beca the president of the student council six months ago. She looked at the other seven ministers and fourteen deputy ministers, rubbing her temples with so fatigue asked.
These days, because of the upcoming battles, the intense training of the team has left her physically exhausted. Now, she also has to worry about the Jianghu Martial Arts Club issue, which indeed feels quite draining.
"That damn woman."
The scheming Yu Qiao glanced at Yang Ningbing, secretly cursing her in his heart.
Originally as a deputy minister, his position remained unchanged, and he also did not return to the Red Cloud Team.
Now Yang Ningbing is not only the student council president but also the captain of the Red Cloud Team. If she nodded in agreent, considering Yu Qiao’s ability, returning to the team wouldn’t face much opposition from others.
But she just wouldn’t agree, leaving Yu Qiao resentful yet helpless.
Still, he’s not giving up, because that opportunity is crucial for his future and could change his whole life.
Yu Qiao is still waiting for the final opportunity.
But he doesn’t know what this opportunity is either.
"It’s been three or four days since the ultimatum was given, but there’s been no response. The Jianghu Martial Arts Club has grown strong and certainly won’t listen easily."
Song Ke, the minister of the external relations departnt, spoke with a trace of helplessness in his tone: "In recent days, I’ve contacted so mbers of the Jianghu Martial Arts Club, promising so conditions, even offering a deputy minister position, but for so reason, not one agreed. They seem very optimistic about the developnt of the Jianghu Martial Arts Club."
The student council is the only student organization recognized by Red Cloud, and it’s qualified to participate in setting school rules. Its foundation and power are naturally unmatched by the Jianghu Martial Arts Club.
If we were to suppress the Jianghu Martial Arts Club without reservation, it would be troubleso but not impossible.
It’s just that no one wants to tear things apart.
Not to ntion those super talents, just Yun Kai alone is enough to make the student council wary of him.
No one wants to beco enemies with such a super talent.
"If we can’t negotiate, then let’s go to war directly. Otherwise, in another year, when Yun Kai enters his fourth year, no one will be able to suppress him then."
"I previously ntioned that the Jianghu Martial Arts Club is a threat and should be eliminated, not given a chance to develop."
"I think we should still negotiate; the Jianghu Martial Arts Club is not weak either, and if we really engage, even if we win, the losses will be sizable."
"Easier said than done, with Yun Kai’s charisma, the martial arts club he established isn’t sothing you can just eliminate on a whim!"
The chaotic and worthless opinions annoyed Yang Ningbing.
Though she beca the student council president, Yang Ningbing is actually already a graduate, having received her diploma.
Most graduates like her have already left the school.
She stays at school only because of the preparations for the Glory Battle.
As a graduate, she will have to resign from the student council president position once she leaves, so she can’t hold the position for more than two months.
Although this position brings her tens of millions in monthly inco, her primary task now is not the developnt of the student council but preparing for the National College Glory Battle.
As long as she can enter the top three, she can not only get the resource rewards she dreams of, but as a Thunder Technique user, she might secure a spot as a main participant in world events.
That would be the most important opportunity of her life.
She doesn’t want to spend too much energy on managing the student council.
But she can’t let it go either, because this position is crucial for her family, and before leaving, she wants to ensure that the deputy minister of the combat departnt, the junior Yang Xuan, becos the minister of the combat departnt, so this issue must be resolved.
"Then let’s go to war directly."
After hesitating for a while, Yang Ningbing finally made a decision.
Though offending Yun Kai is troubleso, she is also a super talent with strength greater than Yun Kai’s, and backed by the Yang Family, she is not afraid of Yun Kai.
Upon hearing Yang Ningbing’s decision, many people’s expressions changed slightly, but they said no more, as this was indeed the last resort.
"Alright then, the eting is over. From today on, we’ll fully suppress the Jianghu Martial Arts Club."
After saying this, Yang Ningbing prepared to stand up and leave. But just then, a young man suddenly opened the eting room door and walked in. Facing everyone’s gaze, he looked a bit troubled: "Lin Feng is back!"
Lin Feng?
Upon hearing this familiar na, many people’s expressions visibly changed slightly.
Although he disappeared for a year and a half, no one would forget this na.
Why did he suddenly co back?
And if he’s back, why does he look so troubled?
"A few days ago, all major companies terminated their contracts. He finally dares to show up!" soone laughed.
"What’s the rush? What happened?" Yang Ningbing asked.
If it were the boy he once was, she would have been mindful. But now, Lin Feng has fallen from grace and poses no threat.
Although she feels there’s no threat, Yang Ningbing can’t help but feel a bit uneasy.
What is he back for at this critical mont?
"If you’ve got sothing to say, just spit it out," Yu Qiao said impatiently.
Under the puzzled gazes of everyone, the young man adjusted his emotion and with an unusual tone said: "I’m not exactly sure, but just now, all mbers of the Jianghu Martial Arts Club received a notice to go to the Martial Arts Arena. It’s said there’s going to be a big move."
A big move?
What big move?
Everyone looked at each other, seemingly seeing a hint of unease in each other’s eyes.
The person who once made major companies and groups, the Glory Professional Alliance, and even the entire nation spin around his little finger, has been away for more than a year, and now upon his return, he’s planning sothing big, leaving them no choice but to think more.
"Lin Feng? Let’s go and see."
Yang Ningbing furrowed her brows slightly, with a hint of iciness in her tone: "Notify all student council mbers to gather at the Martial Arts Arena. I want to see what tricks he wants to pull now that he’s back!"
