Chapter 156

The next day, 9:30 in the morning.

Half an hour remained before the opening ceremony officially began.

Yet within the vast No. 1 playground, a scene of a sea of people had already arrived.

They were all freshmen who had geared up and waited here in advance.

On their slightly immature faces, there was a hint of excitement, looking forward to achieving a good ranking in the upcoming Freshman Grand Competition.

Besides that, on the spectator stands surrounding the playground, quite a few senior students had also arrived in advance.

As a large number of freshmen entered the playground, someone on the spectator stands said with a smile:

"Last year we were surrounded by onlookers inside the dungeon; this year it's finally our turn to watch the fun!"

"Don't just think about watching the fun! Remember our mission! Try to observe as much as possible which ones are good seedlings and bring them into our club!"

Someone beside him immediately scolded.

Every year at the Freshman Grand Competition, students will display their full strength.

And these clubs of theirs will also take the opportunity to select students and bring in some good seedlings.

Although he was scolded, the person who spoke earlier did not mind, pointing towards a distance and saying:

"People from the Aurora Club have come too; do good seedlings still fall to us?"

Upon hearing "Aurora Club," everyone was stunned one after another and fell silent...

Indeed, compared to the Aurora Club, one of the school's largest clubs, they were simply not on the same level...

Not far away.

Li Dongsheng, the head of the Aurora Club, said to the few people around him:

"Our goal this time is to try to recruit the top fifty freshmen in the sequence into our club, especially Zhou Yi, who ranks first and has immense potential!"

"A month ago, I once tried to invite him to join, but he refused."

"If we can recruit him into our club this time, within a year, our club will have gained another backbone."

"Zhou Yi? I heard he seems a bit unmotivated.

He hasn't been at school for a month, completely wasting his training time."

One of them, a girl with shoulder-length short hair, frowned and said.

Her cousin was also a special recruit at Su University this year.

So she knew quite a bit about the situation of this year's special recruits.

"Oh? I wasn't aware of that."

Li Dongsheng frowned.

At Su Hang University, the competition is extremely fierce!

Often, in just one or two months, others can pull away from you.

Moreover, this is the golden period when special recruits have just enrolled and received resources; they should cherish it even more.

Who would have thought that Zhou Yi would simply waste it all away...

"Regardless, let's first observe his performance in the dungeon ourselves."

With a wave of his large hand, Li Dongsheng quickly Made a decision.

Hearing is believing nothing; seeing is believing everything.

Zhou Yi's true strength can only be known after the Freshman Grand Competition begins.

"Yes!"

The short-haired girl and the others immediately agreed.

On the vast playground, the newly enrolled freshmen were all standing scattered about.

And the special recruits who had been at school for over a month were relatively familiar with each other, naturally gathering into groups.

"Hmm? Have you seen Zhou Yi?"

"Didn't see him; he didn't forget the Freshman Grand Competition, did he?"

"I think it's possible; after all, he hasn't returned to school for over a month."

The special recruits scanned the surroundings but did not find Zhou Yi's figure.

"Young Master Shen, good news!

If Zhou Yi doesn't participate in the Freshman Grand Competition, we'll have one less formidable rival!"

Beside Shen Lingfeng, a special recruit from Ning An 5.0 City immediately laughed.

The school's default number one freshman actually forgot to come to the Freshman Grand Competition.

What kind of number one freshman is that?

"Formidable rival? He doesn't even qualify."

Shen Lingfeng didn't explain much; a pair of cold eyes had already turned towards a certain spot not far away.

"Besides, he has already arrived."

At the playground entrance, a tall figure walked in.

It must be said that Zhou Yi's aura was indeed unique.

His height of one meter eighty-five was just right; strong yet not showing a trace of flabbiness.

On his resolute and rugged face, a pair of eyes were clear and spirited.

The sacred aura emanating from his whole body gave people a faint sense of pressure while also appearing full of mystery.

This was absolutely a man whom countless young girls longed for.

"Zhou Yi!"

"He's here!"

Although most of the specially-recruited students believed that Zhou Yi's month away had been entirely without progress.

The moment Zhou Yi appeared, pair after pair of eyes still couldn't help looking over, muttering private warnings.

Among those gazes were admiration, caution, and of course, plenty of disdain and contempt......

Zhou Yi!

The de facto top freshman of Suhang University!

Apart from the specially-recruited students, plenty of the ordinary students had also looked into his information ahead of time.

As Zhou Yi arrived, these people too gradually began to talk among themselves.
