Chapter 24: The reason for being late

~7 min read 1,337 words

As members of the Candle Dragon Prodigy Project review team.

Whether it was Ling Yun.

Or the reviewers under his command.

Even the youngest, Lin Feng.

Had almost traveled all over Jiuzhou in the past two years.

They had seen countless prodigies!

But...

"Breaking through from a magic card student to a Silver tier card master in one month?"

Such speed.

Evaluated solely on source energy cultivation talent.

Was already enough to be listed as S-level, or even higher!

However.

Ling Yun shook his head.

Suppressing the shock in his heart.

To become a member of the Candle Dragon Prodigies.

Looking at the source energy level alone was not enough!

This world contains many strange objects.

Among which there is no lack of treasures that can rapidly increase source energy levels!

What's more.

"Student Su Yu, I remember that Principal Lei Dong should have given you some precautions after applying for the Candle Dragon Prodigy review qualification."

"For example, students participating in the Candle Dragon Prodigy review should try not to leave their city of residence before the review begins."

Ling Yun looked at Su Yu.

His gaze was incredibly stern!

"You should know this precaution, right."

Su Yu nodded.

Principal Lei Dong had indeed told him this.

But at the time, the invitation from Professor Sun Yu was also of great significance to him.

What's more.

"The review time Principal Lei Dong applied for me was July 3rd, which is ten days from now, but I did indeed delay the review team's work because of some matters, and I admit this mistake."

"Admit the mistake?"

Hearing Su Yu's words.

Before Ling Yun could speak.

Lin Feng, who was behind him, could not help but sneer as he looked at Su Yu's calm expression: "I don't see any attitude of admitting a mistake from you, Student Su Yu!"

"Taking a step back."

"You, a magic card student, what kind of matter could be more important than the Candle Dragon Prodigy review?"

"Assistant researcher."

"What?"

Su Yu looked up.

His gaze toward Lin Feng was incredibly calm, his tone indifferent.

"I said, I left Jiangcheng and went to Master Xuan Prefecture because I was invited by a professor to serve as his assistant researcher."

"Serving as a professor's assistant researcher?"

Hearing Su Yu's words.

Even Ling Yun, who had originally wanted to stop Lin Feng and tell him to shut up.

Felt a chill in his eyes as he looked at Su Yu!

A student's aptitude can be mediocre.

But if they are full of lies and have a despicable character.

Even if their aptitude is good.

In Ling Yun's view, they are not qualified to become a member of the Candle Dragon Prodigies!

"Do you know what the concept of an assistant researcher is? Student Su Yu, if this is the reason you give, I think there is no need to continue this review!"

Ling Yun looked at Su Yu.

He spoke in a deep voice!

Just then.

Lei Dong, who was on the side, finally could not suppress his dissatisfaction and said: "Chief Reviewer Ling, Student Su Yu was indeed invited by a professor to serve as his assistant researcher!"

"Hmm?"

Hearing Lei Dong's words.

Ling Yun and the others all turned their heads in unison.

To look at Lei Dong. ===== CHAPTER 59 =====

In the depths of their eyes, a hint of astonishment emerged!

If Su Yu was truly lying.

Then it was not impossible for Lei Dong, as the principal, to speak up to help Su Yu smooth things over!

But looking at Lei Dong's indignant appearance.

Ling Yun's heart stirred!

Could it be that this Student Su Yu was not lying?

"Student Su Yu, since you said you were invited to serve as an assistant researcher, you should have proof of identity!"

Just then.

Lin Feng sneered!

In his view.

Lei Dong was just colluding with Su Yu!

Having served as a reviewer for the past two years.

Similar scenes.

He, Lin Feng, had seen too many!

At the beginning, Lin Feng would have been fooled.

But after suffering losses a few times.

Lin Feng had long considered himself to have trained a pair of sharp eyes!

"Proof?"

Su Yu was somewhat helpless.

After leaving the Sun Yukong Research Institute, he had left the proof of being an assistant researcher there.

Seeing Su Yu's hesitation.

Lin Feng became even more firm in his thinking!

He immediately wanted to press his advantage!

To bring this fraudulent Su Yu, and this principal Lei Dong, to justice!

However.

Just then.

Su Yu spoke: "I indeed do not have the proof of identity, but I can contact that professor directly. Having him testify for me should be no problem, right."

"Contact by phone? Who knows if the professor on the other end of the phone is real or fake?"

This time.

Even the female reviewer named Lan Mo, who was next to Lin Feng, could not stand it anymore!

In her view.

This was purely a farce from beginning to end!

Wasting the review team's precious time for no reason!

However.

The person who, in the eyes of Lan Mo, Lin Feng, and others.

Was just a handsome-looking guy with a despicable character.

Directly picked up his phone and dialed a number!

Before they could even speak.

The other end of the phone.

Was connected directly.

Immediately after.

A light screen was projected from the terminal!

The figure of an old man, whom all the reviewers were incredibly familiar with.

Appeared in the conference room!

"Student Su Yu, calling me so early, it seems you have already returned to Jiangcheng?"

Looking at the appearance of Sun Yu that had emerged.

From Ling Yun downwards.

The reviewers, one by one.

Could not help but swallow their saliva with a "gulp."

Looking at Su Yu.

They were shocked beyond measure! ===== CHAPTER 60 =====

Everyone was shocked beyond compare!

"Unbelievable... what exactly did Professor Sun see in him!"

Following Sun Yu's appearance.

The review team's questioning of Su Yu.

Also vanished into thin air!

Just kidding.

As part of the Candle Dragon Prodigy Preparatory Group.

The members of the review team were directly subordinate to the Jiuzhou Card Master Association!

Responsible to the highest level of Jiuzhou card masters!

Their news, naturally, was the most well-informed!

Sun Yu's great name.

Was naturally like thunder to their ears!

Not to mention.

A few days ago, they had just received news.

That the [Sun Yukong Research Institute], which was already on the verge of dissolution.

Had achieved breakthrough progress on the mysterious project they were researching, thanks to Professor Sun Yu and a researcher whose name Professor Sun Yu was temporarily unwilling to disclose!

It directly became one of the most important research institutes of the Jiuzhou Card Master Association!

And Sun Yu, who was already highly respected.

In Jiuzhou, and even among the various human nations.

His prestige and status were raised even higher!

Even the Four Great Prestigious Schools had once again extended an olive branch to Professor Sun!

It was just that, as always, it was rejected by Professor Sun.

As for why Sun Yu concealed the name of that researcher.

That was even easier to understand.

With Sun Yu's status.

Naturally, he would not deign to covet the credit of his subordinates.

There was only one possible reason.

That mysterious researcher's talent was too stunning!

Once exposed, it was very likely that they would be targeted by alien races!

After all.

Compared to card master prodigies.

Card construction prodigies were the most important cornerstone of the card master path!

The threat posed to alien races by a card construction prodigy growing up.

Would far exceed that of several, or even dozens of card master prodigies!

However.

Although Professor Sun Yu did not explicitly state who that mysterious researcher was.

In the eyes of the high-level card masters of Jiuzhou. ===== CHAPTER 61 =====

But in the eyes of the high-level card masters of the Nine Provinces.
