Chapter 719: Sufen's Interview!
Chapter 719: Sufen's Interview!
"Sufen, you finally got some rest!"
Sufen had just stepped out of the lab and was heading to the cafeteria when he ran into Guan Qianshan, who was rushing to meet him.
"What's up?"
Sufen knew that Feifei had informed the others not to disturb him while he was resting. So, why was Uncle Guan in such a hurry?
As it turned out, if there was something truly urgent, Feifei would have woken him up. For Guan Qianshan, the matter causing his anxiety was often trivial to Sufen.
"You have less than ten days before you head to the Lion Kingdom. Many media outlets want to interview you. After all, you've been quite low-key this past year. You haven't appeared much in the media, except for that incident in Sakura Nation, but this time it's different."
"Media?"
Sufen frowned. He wasn't keen on dealing with publicity, but since he was representing the Dragon Nation this time, he did need to give an interview and make a public appearance to show confidence.
A Cultivator isn't just a soft power; they are a hard, tangible strength. A powerful Cultivator can boost the abilities of basic Beast Tamers and enhance the skills of high-ranking Beast Tamers alike.
This Cultivator Lifetime Achievement Award, held every ten years, is a summary of the Cultivator strengths and influences across nations and regions.
Sufen took a bite of his bun, somewhat impatiently. "We can talk about it before I go. It's not like there are only ten days left, right?"
Less than ten days...
Guan Qianshan chuckled bitterly. Thanks to Sufen, he had seen many things over the past few years, even if he couldn't participate in the major events, he was aware of them.
This grand event of the Blue Star's Cultivator community, a true global focus, wasn't something that could be addressed in just ten days.
Those with the qualifications to participate, or even to be part of the selection process, had already been hyped up for months since the list was announced.
After all, while there were no strict rules, those who went up to receive the award often shared their recent cultivation achievements. If they had no significant results, they would at least talk about their ongoing research to add weight to the selection process.
To put it simply, the title of Grandmaster Cultivator was the highest honor in the Blue Star's Cultivator community. It would bring unimaginable respect even in the Beast Kingdom.
Such a title was an absolute affirmation of one's life's value.
How could anyone not care about it?
Yet, this brat in front of him, who should be young and eager for fame, seemed genuinely indifferent!
Was that reasonable?
Sufen didn't bother with Guan Qianshan's thoughts. He held the large bowl and finished the soup inside, then let out a satisfied sigh.
He hadn't had a proper meal in days. While his Emperor Rank Spiritual Power Realm enhanced his constitution, he still had an appetite.
Putting down the bowl, Sufen waved his hand.
"There's still plenty of time. We can talk about it before I head to the Lion Kingdom. Besides, what's there to interview? Just a bunch of useless chatter."
Guan Qianshan looked somewhat helpless.
"Sufen, they've been waiting. Some have been here for a week. We've been putting them off. Master Liu said your cultivation is temporarily complete and will take no more than twenty minutes to wrap up."
Sufen looked at the frustrated Guan Qians, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"Alright, just this once. No need to pick a specific place. I also have to go out later, so let’s do it here!"
"Here?"
Guan Qianshan glanced at the cafeteria of the Core of Ten Thousand Spirits, then looked at Sufen. With a helpless nod, he said, "Alright, just wait a moment."
It didn’t take long for a group of people carrying various recording equipment to walk in. Sufen’s table had transformed into a makeshift press conference stage. Sufen finally understood why Guan Qianshan had been so hesitant. The microphones in front of him bore the marks of provincial and national media, as well as various online platforms. There were even representatives from other countries, all eagerly waiting for Sufen to speak.
Holding a press conference in the cafeteria was a bit hasty, but Sufen didn’t mind. He casually scanned the room. "Let’s start. Ask your questions."
Immediately, someone raised their hand. Sufen was slightly taken aback—it was none other than Li Shu’s father, the current chief editor representing Jianghai Province’s television station.
He had come in person?
Sufen immediately called on him. As expected, Old Li quickly asked, "Cultivator Su, are you planning to announce any new research findings at the upcoming Cultivator Lifetime Achievement Award ceremony?"
His question was relatively gentle, given their connection.
Sufen smiled and nodded. "Of course. And I can give you a little spoiler—there will be more than one new research finding announced."
This statement caused a stir among the audience. Old Li sat down, and the next person to stand up was more direct.
"Cultivator Su, as the youngest participant and a Grandmaster Cultivator with the power to score both yourself and other participants, do you feel any pressure competing alongside so many senior cultivators?"
Sufen shook his head. "No."
He ignored the follow-up question and calmly said, "Next."
Following his direction, a blonde, blue-eyed foreign journalist stood up.
"Cultivator Su, what do you think your performance will be at this ceremony?"
This was a question every participant would face. A modest answer might be something along the lines of being grateful just to participate. Those confident in their past achievements and the results to be announced at the ceremony would mention less controversial awards, such as being the most outstanding cultivator in a specific attribute or category over the past decade, or a particular cultivation achievement award.
However, the most significant award, the Grandmaster title, representing the pinnacle of cultivation, was something few dared to claim.
Clearly, Sufen was different. As the youngest Grandmaster and a Hall of Fame cultivator, he was seen as having the right to vie for the Grandmaster title.
In response to the question, Sufen chuckled and shook his head. "To be honest, I don’t think any of the awards at this ceremony are truly fitting for my cultivation achievements. In my opinion, all the awards would be well-deserved for me."
Before anyone could react, Sufen waved his hand. "Sorry, everyone, my time is limited."
Everyone, including Guan Qianshan, stared in shock as Sufen walked out of the cafeteria, still dazed by his boldness.
Guan Qianshan silently resolved never to force this man into an interview again. He really does say anything, doesn’t he?
