Chapter 348: Farewell to Sun Ruirui
Chapter 348: Farewell to Sun Ruirui
In Xi Ping Province, in a private club not far from the Kansai Beast University, a middle-aged man wearing a white cap sat in a hidden compartment, gazing at the mature woman seated across from him. "The Freshman Challenge is about to begin. We can't afford any more slip-ups this time."
The mature woman wasn't particularly beautiful, but she had a great figure, with curves in all the right places, exuding a certain allure.
She turned to the middle-aged man, took a sip of coffee, and then her red lips parted slightly, "Rest assured, this time, there won't be any problems. I guarantee they'll have a memorable experience they'll never forget."
The woman tilted her head, looking towards a certain direction, a smile playing on her lips, "For this operation, we've contacted the Divine Worship Sect. Don't forget, Kansai is their home turf."
"I trust your arrangements. This time, we must let them witness the might of the Holy Church." The middle-aged man's tone was cold and stern. "By the way, I forgot to ask, where is the venue for this Freshman Challenge? Have you found out?"
The mature woman nodded, "Yes, I've found out. The Federation is quite bold this time, actually setting the venue within the Dimensional Plane."
"So, isn't it more convenient for us to act..." The middle-aged man couldn't help but frown slightly after hearing the mature woman's words.
He started to speak instinctively, but halfway through, he realized something was amiss.
The fact that the Federation dared to set the competition venue within the Dimensional Plane meant they must have been well-prepared.
The security measures might be beyond their imagination.
The mature woman was also puzzled, but instead of voicing her doubts, she calmly relayed the information she had gathered, "The specific venue should be Mo Yuan City."
The middle-aged man stroked his chin, his eyes gleaming with interest, "The Federation actually chose that place as the venue? Interesting. I'm already eager to see those combat geniuses fall in agony."
"We still can't be too careless." The middle-aged man continued, then reminded himself, "In the past few years, we've suffered quite a few losses."
After a moment's thought, he asked again, "How's the inside man situation?"
"Don't worry, we've had people in Mo Yuan City for a long time." The mature woman spoke calmly.
The woman then asked, "Divine Envoy, what method will we use to lure away the legend guarding Mo Yuan City?"
"You don't need to worry about that. You'll see when the time comes." The middle-aged man chuckled, "This time, we're going big."
...
"This is Xi Ping Province, Kansai City, home to the Kansai Beast University." Li Qian, An Paozi, and Lu Tianjiao sat in a hover taxi, heading towards the Kansai Beast University. As they approached their destination, An Paozi pointed excitedly at the grand entrance ahead.
Li Qian patted An Paozi's shoulder, "An Paozi, instead of taking this opportunity to rest at home, why did you come all this way?"
An Paozi chuckled, revealing his true intention, "This Freshman Challenge is a rare opportunity, held in Mo Yuan City. If I miss this chance, I don't know when I'll get another."
His words were the plain truth.
Given his current strength, it was almost impossible for him to obtain the Adventurer Emblem before graduation.
Li Qian understood An Paozi's purpose and shook his head helplessly, "The tickets for this Freshman Challenge aren't cheap."
"Don't worry, my grandpa can afford it." An Paozi waved off the concern, "Of course, that's secondary. The main reason is to cheer you on."
Hearing An Paozi's righteous words, Li Qian couldn't help but glance at him, "I'm not participating in the combat competition. It's just a display of cultivation results, there won't be any danger."
"I can cheer for Brother Tianjiao too." An Paozi fixed his gaze on Lu Tianjiao.
Sitting in the front row, Lu Tianjiao gave An Paozi a thumbs-up, revealing his pearly white teeth.
"Brother, you have good taste." The guy shamelessly praised himself.
Li Qian smiled faintly, thinking that these two were truly birds of a feather, always sticking together.
The moment they met, the two of them were like a pair of quarrelsome cats, instantly wanting to become sworn brothers.
Just as they were bantering back and forth, Li Qian's phone suddenly rang.
Taking out his phone, he showed a look of surprise, "Hmm? Why is she calling me at this time?"
"Who is it?" An Paozi, sitting next to him, and Lu Tianjiao in the front row instantly turned into curious onlookers, their faces filled with curiosity.
Their intuition told them that the caller was most likely a girl.
These two rascals were always most interested in such matters.
Li Qian glanced at them irritably, turned his head away, and answered the call, "Hello? Ruirui... What? You're in Guanxi City, I presume, and you're here for the Freshman Challenge Competition too?"
"No, I'm right at the entrance of Kansai Beast University... Okay, I'll wait for you here!"
"..."
Not long after, Li Qian hung up the phone.
The call was from Sun Ruirui, and this time, she was also participating in the Freshman Challenge Competition held at Kansai Beast University.
Having not seen each other for a long time, Li Qian made plans to meet up with her later. As soon as he hung up, An Paozi, sitting next to him, asked in a flirtatious tone, "Who is it?"
"He's a friend of mine. We met when I was traveling in Zhonghai," Li Qian explained briefly, not intending to say more.
Lu Tianjiao, on the other hand, started filling in the details in his mind.
Li Qian didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Soon, the car stopped by the roadside in front of Kansai Beast University.
As they got off the car, a student immediately approached them and asked if they were there for the Freshman Challenge Competition.
Lu Tianjiao nodded proudly.
Li Qian let them go in first and waited for them at the entrance.
Waiting for Sun Ruirui.
However, neither An Paozi nor Lu Tianjiao showed any intention of going in. They stood at the gate, ready to watch the show.
Li Qian chose to ignore them.
After a while, another taxi pulled up by the roadside.
Out came a petite and pitiful-looking girl, along with a tall and slender beauty with long hair tied in a high ponytail.
The small girl was Sun Ruirui.
Seeing Sun Ruirui, Li Qian walked over with a smile, "Ruirui, long time no see."
"Elder Brother Qian, long time no see," Sun Ruirui greeted him with a beaming smile, waving her hand and looking adorably mischievous, no longer the gloomy person she used to be.
Li Qian chuckled and complimented her, "Time apart makes a difference, I never expected that our Ruirui would become a top student at Zhonghai Beast Taming University."
Sun Ruirui felt a bit embarrassed and said, "Elder Brother Qian, please don't tease me. Compared to you, I'm not really a top student."
"By the way, this is my good friend Mo Ziyu, also a genius freshman at the Combat Academy of Zhonghai Beast Taming University."
Sun Ruirui began introducing the tall, ponytailed girl beside her.
"Hello," Li Qian greeted the tall girl politely, "I'm Li Qian..."
Just as he was about to introduce himself, the tall girl interrupted, "I know you, Ruirui often talks about you."
Hearing this, Sun Ruirui's face turned as red as a ripe apple.
Her voice became hesitant, "Don't listen to Ziyu's nonsense... I... I... just... sometimes feel grateful to you, after all, you... are my lifesaver, yes, that's it..."
Mo Ziyu listened to Sun Ruirui's awkward explanation with a peculiar expression.
At this moment, An Paozi and Lu Tianjiao approached them in high spirits.
Lu Tianjiao introduced himself shamelessly, "Hello, my name is Lu Ming, also known as Lu Tianjiao. Like Qianzi, I'm also a freshman at Kansai Beast University, and the future top student of the Combat Academy."
Hearing Lu Tianjiao's shameless introduction, Li Qian couldn't help but cover his face.
