Chapter 197

"Calling us all over, it seems this time it's to determine the list of personnel for the freshman exchange tournament expedition team."

"Yeah! I'm really looking forward to the National University Freshman Exchange Tournament!"

"Who isn't? My battle blade has been thirsty for a long time!"

"..."

War Academy conference hall.

Four or five freshmen in the top ten of the sequence had already arrived early.

Speaking among themselves, they were quite looking forward to the upcoming National University Freshman Exchange Tournament.

After all, this is a grand event facing the whole country!

Not long after, a man and a woman walked in from the door.

The boy was tall and had a firm face.

The girl had a slender figure and a beautiful appearance, with a captivating charm vaguely radiating from her.

These two were naturally Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan, who had received the notice to come here.

"Brother Yi, you're here."

"Zhou Yi."

"Brother Zhou."

"..."

Zhou Yi's strong performance in the freshman competition had completely conquered these proud geniuses.

Seeing Zhou Yi come over, everyone immediately greeted him enthusiastically.

As for Jiang Churan, who came with Zhou Yi, these people weren't too surprised.

After all, it could be seen from the freshman competition that the relationship between the two was not ordinary...

Freshman classes have been underway for over twenty days, and Zhou Yi has a general impression of the other top ten freshmen.

He no longer finds himself unable to recognize a single one, as he did during the Freshman Grand Competition.

Therefore, facing everyone's enthusiasm, Zhou Yi nods slightly in acknowledgment.

He then finds a seat at random and sits down.

Not long after the two of them sit down, the remaining freshmen in the top ten of the sequence arrive one after another.

At this moment, Wu Mang, Dean of the War Academy, Zhou Huayang, Dean of the Elemental Academy, and Song Qi, Dean of the Weaponry Academy, also walk in.

Stepping onto the ceremonial platform, Wu Mang scans the crowd below.

The Freshman Grand Competition has ended, and classes have officially begun.

The freshmen's studies and training have already entered the right track.

Now, twenty days later, compared to the day of the Freshman Grand Competition, the auras of the current top ten freshmen appear much more refined.

Clearly, their strength has improved significantly.

Among these people, Zhou Yi is undoubtedly the most prominent.

His momentum is extremely powerful!!

Wu Mang is not surprised by this.

As early as two or three weeks ago, he had heard from the Dean of the Elemental Academy that Zhou Yi had obtained the extremely rare 'Frost Titan' bloodline.

Originally, Zhou Yi was at a disadvantage regarding special bloodlines, possessing only a common human bloodline.

Now, not only has his bloodline power been supplemented, but it was supplemented with the bloodline of a Titan descendant!!

A surge in strength is only natural.

After confirming everyone's aura one by one, Wu Mang withdraws his gaze and says in a deep voice:

"The National College Freshman Exchange Tournament begins on September 1st. I called you here today mainly to finalize the member list for our school's expedition team."

His voice sounds as if it is coming from his chest, very powerful.

Hearing this, the freshmen below all have their eyes light up, thinking, "Just as expected!"

"The expedition team for the National College Freshman Exchange Tournament consists of 6 official members and 4 substitutes, adding up to exactly the 10 of you."

"However, if any of you do not wish to go, you may state it now."

"So that I can move down the list to find the 11th and 12th place students."

The moment Wu Mang's voice falls, a 'ding' sound rings out.

A system notification appears in Zhou Yi's mind:

【Detected that the National College Freshman Exchange Tournament is about to begin. The Exchange Tournament Achievement Quest is now issued.】

【Achievement Quest: Based on your overall performance in the exchange tournament, you will receive corresponding achievement rewards.

(Note: This reward is linked to the 'Paladin' profession you have chosen).】

'It's here, an achievement quest!!'

Zhou Yi forces himself not to show too much abnormality, but his heart is filled with surprise!

Before this, the system's achievement quests had only appeared twice.

Once during the college entrance examination, and once in the Gale Mountain Range.

The rewards obtained after completing those tasks allowed his strength to improve in an incredibly astonishing way!!

Clearly, as long as he achieves sufficiently good results in the National College Freshman Exchange Tournament this time, he will definitely receive an extremely astonishing system reward.

'Rewards issued based on overall performance in the exchange tournament... it looks like this National College Freshman Exchange Tournament will be busy.'

Zhou Yi's eyes flicker.

The exchange tournament has three events.

They are the Survival Match, the Team Match, and the Individual Match.

To get the best overall score, naturally, he must take first place in all three events!

Just as Zhou Yi is thinking to himself.

Facing Wu Mang's words, "If you don't want to go, you can state it now," none of the top ten freshmen make a sound.

Are you kidding?

The National College Freshman Exchange Tournament gathers genius freshmen from across the country; who would want to miss such an opportunity to compete?

"Very good."

Seeing no one withdraw, Wu Mang nods.

"The Freshman Exchange Tournament has three events: the Survival Match, the Team Match, and the Individual Match."

"Except for the Survival Match and the Individual Match, the Team Match requires six people to form a team to participate collectively."

"Therefore, a captain needs to be selected."

"Zhou Yi will serve as this captain. Does anyone have any objections?"

Facing Wu Mang's inquiry, everyone shakes their heads immediately.

Zhou Yi's strength is formidable; he swept through the Freshman Grand Competition to take the first-place sequence ranking.

Naturally, they have no complaints about him being the captain of the expedition team.

"Since everyone agrees with you being the captain, then the team composition will also be completed by you. Is that okay?"

Wu Mang looks at Zhou Yi.

After all, the Freshman Exchange Tournament requires these students to go on stage and complete the battles.

It is better for the captain to complete the team composition.

As long as there are no issues with the final list submitted, they, as teachers, will not interfere too much.

"No problem."

Zhou Yi nods.

If anything, this makes it more convenient for him to build a formidable team.

"Good, just give me the official personnel list tomorrow."

"Also, as long as you achieve first place in this Freshman Exchange Tournament, everyone will receive a reward of at least 10, 00 credits!"

"Moreover, in addition to our school's internal rewards, you will also receive rewards provided by the organizers for placing in the competition."

"I don't know the rewards for this year yet, but last year's rewards included a large batch of resources and equipment, with the highest resource level being S+ and the highest equipment level being Legendary grade..."

The few words Wu Mang says before leaving with the other two deans are like dropping a bomb on a calm lake, instantly setting off huge waves!!
