Chapter 121

Su Yu nodded. "I've already read more than half of it, and I feel I've indeed learned quite a lot."

"Hiss... You've already read more than half!?" Hong Wu on the other end sounded somewhat surprised. "I originally intended for people to finish studying it within half a year!"

"But this is good; it proves your talent truly differs from that of ordinary people!"

Speaking thus, Hong Wu felt very happy.

Having a successor with both great talent and drive made him immensely joyful.

Ever since Su Yu became his successor, Hong Wu felt happy every single day.

"By the way, I sought you out to discuss an important matter."

"Every year, to care for the successors of the various Heavenly Kings, the Alliance gathers many successors from freshman to junior year in November to undergo training together."

"Successors currently in their senior year are not invited by the Alliance, as they will soon face the National University Competition."

"One could say this is an elite training camp, filled with many highly capable individuals."

"The Alliance will take you all to an A-rank Secret Realm for special training. I wonder if you are interested?"

"I originally planned to register you when you reached your sophomore year, so you could strive to win the National University Competition in your junior year."

"But since your goal is to participate and win the championship next year, I have decided to send you for training this year instead."

"What is your opinion?"

Hong Wu spoke slowly from the other end of the phone.

Upon hearing Hong Wu's words, Su Yu fell into deep thought.

"An elite training camp? And one organized by the Alliance no less."

It could be said that Su Yu was very eager to go.

After all, he needed to prepare for next year's University Exchange Competition.

Su Yu also needed to level up his spirits.

If he went to a Secret Realm alone, it would be troublesome every day.

Going too far meant he would have to return every few days.

Going too close meant the spirits within the Secret Realm would be too low-leveled, likely yielding little experience.

But if it were a training camp organized by the Alliance Recruitment Office, it meant he could continuously grind for experience inside.

Moreover, he could witness firsthand how the true experts of today conducted themselves.

One could say it was an excellent opportunity.

After considering for a few minutes, Su Yu nodded.

"Hong Wu, I want to participate in this training camp. Please register me."

Hearing Su Yu's reply, Hong Wu smiled with satisfaction.

"Good! I will register you immediately. In three days, a specialist should arrive at your school to handle your pickup."

"Furthermore, they will explain the situation to the school, so you need not worry about your coursework."

Su Yu expressed his gratitude, "Then I trouble you, Uncle Hong."

After chatting a bit longer, Su Yu hung up the phone.

"It is time to start preparing for next year's competition," Su Yu thought to himself.

Three days later, several black Jeeps appeared at the entrance of Tianyun University.

They were parked in neat rows, looking extremely mysterious.

Many students, upon seeing this scene, began whispering among themselves.

"These cars are here again this year. They must be here to pick up those with backgrounds in our school, right?"

"Exactly. It is said that whenever those people are taken away, their strength improves significantly upon their return."

"This must be some kind of training program; I wonder who is organizing it."

"Hiss... If only I could go once. I really want to see what it's like inside."

Under the gaze of many, Su Yu walked unhurriedly from the campus to the vehicle indicated in the text message.

At that moment, the window rolled down, revealing a driver dressed entirely in black, looking very professional.

He asked, "Are you student Su Yu? Please present your Successor ID."

Su Yu nodded and took out the ID he had prepared in advance.

The driver took it, confirmed there were no issues, and then opened the front passenger seat.

"Please get in," the driver in black said politely.

Su Yu placed his luggage in the back and sat in the front passenger seat.

Subsequently, the vehicle slowly began to move.

Along the way, the driver remained silent as a mute, unwilling to say a single extra word.

Su Yu, content with the quiet, sat in the passenger seat watching the scenery outside and thought to himself.

With so many vehicles at the school gate, it seems I am not the only Successor at Tianyun University.

Su Yu had noticed upon exiting earlier that quite a few vehicles were parked at the school gate.

If one vehicle corresponded to one person, then Tianyun University had quite a number of Successors.

As one of the top three schools in the nation, having this many people was only normal.

The vehicle continued driving, moving steadily forward bit by bit.

After traversing many roads, the car finally came to a stop.

"We have arrived. Once you get out, another person will be responsible for receiving you."

The driver said indifferently.

"Thanks," Su Yu offered his gratitude, then opened the car door and stepped out.

Indeed, before Su Yu could even look at the surrounding scenery, another receptionist approached.

"Please follow me this way," the receptionist said politely.

Su Yu nodded and followed.

After several twists and turns, Su Yu finally arrived at the destination.

It was a small playground covering 400 square meters.

At that moment, quite a few people had already gathered in the middle of the playground.

Their faces were youthful; they all looked like university students.

If Su Yu guessed correctly, these must be the other successors.

"Please gather over there and wait; someone will be assigned to take charge shortly,"

the receptionist said.

Su Yu nodded to indicate understanding, then walked over.

He found a spot at the end of the line and stood there.

One person in the line, seeing the newcomer Su Yu, immediately approached enthusiastically.

"Hello, my name is Qin Yun. You're a successor too, right?"

Su Yu looked at the person greeting him; he had a rather delicate appearance with bumps on his forehead.

Yet his entire demeanor seemed very warm, suggesting he was quite an extrovert.

"Hello, I'm Su Yu. Are you also a successor?" Su Yu replied.

Qin Yun scratched his head, laughed heartily, and said, "Anyone who comes here must be a successor, no doubt about it."

"By the way, brother, what year are you in? You look so young."

Qin Yun asked curiously.

"I'm a freshman; I just entered my first year this year," Su Yu answered.

"Hiss... A freshman!?" Qin Yun sucked in a cold breath.

"Is there anything strange about being a freshman?" Su Yu asked.

Qin Yun carefully sized up Su Yu, confirming that he truly didn't know before speaking.

"Brother Su Yu, the place we're going is a Grade-A Secret Realm. Let alone freshmen, even many sophomore successors might not have the strength for this."

"In fact, many of those here are juniors. I never expected a freshman like you to come straight away!"

Speaking to this point, Qin Yun couldn't help but say with some concern.

"Brother Su Yu, it seems you aren't clear on the situation; why don't you apply to leave now? Coming next time wouldn't be too late."
