If a King takes an interest in you, your future is bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If an Emperor personally accepts you as a disciple, you’re pretty much guaranteed to become a Venerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Shen Fei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, Imperial University did indeed deliberate over his situation, thinking that Shen Fei’s abilities seemed a bit beyond the norm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of strength and status, he was not weaker than some Venerables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, excluding him would violate university regulations; after all, Shen Fei just founded the Innovation Association, and breaking the rules might invite gossip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Shen Fei was elusive, so after consideration, Imperial University decided to put him into the competitor pool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Shen Fei doesn’t show up, his opponent gets a bye. If he comes, well, then it’s just a... there is no ’then.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then, let the school know I will participate, but I won’t be taking any rewards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if someone is drawn against me, I will appear, but I will decide whether it’s a win or a loss based on how that person performs against my Summoned Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Call it a little easter egg in the tournament.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. It seems the school also mentioned something about wanting you as a judge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this year’s new student tournament seems to involve Abyssal expansion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Yann nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So you’re both a competitor and a judge, huh. Alright. I’ll contact them after I return to school to see what their plan is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, the Innovation Association will also sponsor part of this new student tournament, hoping to nurture some outstanding freshmen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Also, write an application. The individual competition is too boring, not only for the new student tournament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, have the school add a team competition that can be entered in the form of small squads.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, I’ll write it now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Shen Fei was about to hang up the phone, he sensed that Tang Yann had more to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anything else?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh, did Bai Qingzhao make it over there? I thought I saw Chang’an University’s aid in a live broadcast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah. I thought you were coming over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Tang Yann’s words, Shen Fei suddenly laughed; young ones can’t seem to let things go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But thinking about it, it hasn’t really been that long, so if there were any budding feelings back then, this time hasn’t been enough to erase them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Yann helplessly said, \"Boss, you have no idea how crazy busy we’ve been lately. If it wasn’t for our cooperation with the Breaking Abyss Army and the school,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>would your online reputation still be so good?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks for your hard work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Fei had also learned from Su Muyu that Tang Yann had anticipated a media storm long ago and had the publicity department prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, perhaps, these public opinions were just mere frost and snow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But many people are often influenced by public opinion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was pushed in front by the Breaking Abyss Army; if his reputation wasn’t good, it would also impact the Army.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The high ground of public opinion can never be given to the enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh, if you have time, boss, pass on my regards to her for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why? Dude, don’t you have a phone yourself?\" Shen Fei was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... forget it, boss, never mind if you’re busy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Fei shook his head and looked at Su Muyu, who was staring at him with curiosity, \"Wife, do you have Bai Qingzhao’s contact?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, I’ve got it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Muyu pulled out her watch, \"Want me to contact her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Call her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, what are you doing?! Sister-in-law, be honest, give him a break!\" Tang Yann’s voice was a bit anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Su Muyu only listened to Shen Fei. In no time, her watch connected. \"Su Muyu, is there something you need?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Qingzhao’s voice was slightly cool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shen Fei wants to have a word with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? Shen Fei?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Qingzhao was puzzled; she shouldn’t have any interaction with Shen Fei, not even having said a word to him before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not me, it’s just that Tang Yann seems a bit shy to call you directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked me to relay a message, see if you can give him a call.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is he crazy? Too shy to call me? He wasn’t like this when he used to bug me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Tang Yann was mentioned, a bit of Bai Qingzhao’s cool demeanor seemed to melt away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Fei seemed to smile slightly at Tang Yann’s side, still connected to the phone, but even his breathing was silenced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if worried about someone overhearing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, I’ll give him a call, he probably wants to ask if I’m going to your school’s new student tournament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The major five universities’ student tournaments have always been staggered, letting other universities’ top talents get a look at their competition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This guy, he can’t even make a simple call?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Qingzhao said this and then hung up the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, Tang Yann’s slightly hurried voice came through, \"Eh, it’s all boss spreading nonsense, right. Yes, the new student tournament, right...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Fei hung up, \"That guy, left me with his business phone? Yet gave Bai Qingzhao his personal number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn’t he just go to Chang’an University back then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Muyu looked curious, \"Why are you acting like a matchmaker recently, urging Wang Xun to find a girlfriend quickly, and also trying to pair up Tang Yann and Bai Qingzhao.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Fei raised an eyebrow, \"Having experienced happiness myself, sometimes I do feel like letting those around me share in the joy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Muyu looked earnestly at Shen Fei’s handsome face, \"Don’t think sweet talk will make me agree to that thing... Humph, I usually go along with you, but the collar...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t that just a little fun between couples, hehe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Fei smiled shamelessly, \"And mainly, I’ve noticed that Tang Yann and Bai Qingzhao seem like a good match, but Bai Qingzhao seems wholly focused on increasing her strength...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These things just depend on fate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, after Governor Han discusses the matter regarding Shencheng City with me tomorrow, we should head back to school too, it’s about time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After breakfast, Su Muyu went to purchase skills, as leveling up so quickly had disrupted her plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was indeed a happy problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Shen Fei, he was on the phone with Luo Ran, who had called him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Fei looked puzzled, \"Huh? Settling scores with the Pope? What sort of compensation do I need?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1263,"2026-05-29T05:23:40.185Z","2026-06-01T04:29:17.252Z",1,"novelbin.me","619d0904f7b12b3350031dd5a2c6cd7024ececc4b69b41801abcf3f11accda68","summoners-one-golden-term-per-level-chapter-297","summoners-one-golden-term-per-level-chapter-295",369,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsummoners-one-golden-term-per-level-cover.jpg",{"terms":25},[]]
