Chapter 77: Xu Jiujiu's Threat
"Lazy pig, stop sleeping, time to get up."
Pinching Wang Dong's face, Su Yu unceremoniously called Wang Dong to wake up.
"Su Yu, stop messing around, I still want to sleep a little longer." Wang Dong struggled quite reluctantly.
"Don't forget you have a match today." As soon as Su Yu said this, the bed-hogging Wang Dong immediately climbed out of bed.
Wang Dong looked at Su Yu and asked, "Will you go watch today's match?"
"Depends on the situation, if my body is still okay..." Su Yu didn't know how to answer either, although his current state was indeed much better than before.
But Electrolux was still absorbing his Spirit Power; even if Su Yu wanted to go, he was willing but lacked the strength.
There were too many things to do, yet his own energy was far from enough.
After Wang Dong left, Su Yu sat in front of the balcony, looking at the bustling scene outside the window.
Today's weather wasn't very good; it was overcast and somewhat oppressive. The clouds in the sky weren't dark, yet they simply wouldn't let the sun show its face. Fortunately, the air was still fresh, and it wasn't raining.
The round-robin tournament had begun, which also meant the opening of the contestant rest area. Today was only the first round of the round-robin, and four out of the eight participating teams would compete.
However, all sixty-seven teams that had advanced from the elimination round were sitting in the rest area without exception.
It's just, I wonder what kind of performance Xu Sanshi, known as the "scumbag of the round-robin," will put on?
Thinking of this, Su Yu couldn't help but become interested. Now, he was not only mentally weak, but his body was also gradually becoming weak.
His situation was worsening day by day. Now he only hoped that Yi Lao wouldn't go too far; otherwise, at worst, they would both crash and burn. Anyway, if I'm gone, you're still there, but if I'm gone, you're truly gone.
Young Master Su ultimately failed to step out of the house and could only lie quietly at home to rest.
"Sigh, finally awakened. I've finally managed to replenish the Spirit Power consumed previously." An aged voice sounded in Su Yu's mind.
Hearing this voice, Su Yu was overjoyed—Yi Lao had finally woken up!
"I really must thank you for your Spirit Power these past few days. Those two bugs were truly a bit of a nuisance; it's still more comfortable here with you. Little fellow, are you interested in learning my magic?" Having absorbed Su Yu's Spirit Power for so many days, and based on Su Yu's performance over these days, Yi Lao felt quite good about him.
"Um, may I ask who you are?" Although he knew in his heart that this was Yi Lao, he couldn't just open his mouth and say "Hello, Yi Lao."
Su Yu also appeared in his Spirit Sea in his spirit form, looking at the gray air current in front of him, feeling somewhat excited. Although he had thought about obtaining Yi Lao from Huo Yu Hao's hands, he hadn't expected that an unintentional act would lead to such success. He had originally only helped Huo Yu Hao stabilize his Spirit Sea, yet he had unexpectedly harvested Yi Lao.
However, ever since Yi Lao entered his Spirit Sea, Huo Yu Hao had always deliberately avoided talking about this matter. Clearly, Huo Yu Hao knew about it, but for the sake of self-preservation, he had to pretend he knew nothing.
Su Yu didn't mind; since Yi Lao was in his hands, there was no need to dwell on these things.
"Little one, I shouldn't have originally belonged to this world. I only remember that I seemed to be dying at the time. But perhaps because my soul power was too powerful, at the moment of death, I tore through space, and this wisp of divine sense remained. As a result, I arrived in your world. At that time, your friend was just undergoing fusion with that big bug, creating a very strong energy fluctuation, which attracted me as well. Thus, this wisp of my divine sense moved into his Spirit Sea."
Having said this, Electrolux paused, as if recalling something.
"Originally, my divine sense was living in that little fellow's Spirit Sea, but a few days ago, I was awakened by a fluctuation of familiar Undead Magic. Just as I woke up, the two bugs living in the Spirit Sea of that little fellow named Huo Yu Hao tried their best to suppress me, attempting to annihilate me. Having just awakened, I happened to run into you, who were helping to stabilize the Spirit Sea, so from now on, my divine sense will follow you."
Having said this, Su Yu finally understood why. Yi Lao, who was already in a weak state, had just woken up and then had a scene caused by that guy Tian Meng the Ice Silkworm. Given Yi Lao's temper, he probably found it annoying; after all, in the original work, Tian Meng the Ice Silkworm had often tried to kill Yi Lao...
"Then, could you please stop absorbing my Spirit Power? These past few days, I've been almost killed by you..." Su Yu looked at Yi Lao with a helpless expression. If it weren't for Yi Lao absorbing his Spirit Power these past few days, he probably could have already prepared a bunch of things.
Soul Guidance Research, walking around more with Wang Dong; if that didn't work, I could even take this opportunity to go to the Sun Moon Empire.
"Rest assured, I have no malice toward you. In the future, I probably won't be able to leave you. I only have a wisp of divine sense left, which is very fragile and needs time to gradually repair itself to slowly recover all my memories. Now that I have awakened, I will no longer need your Spirit Power." Yi Lao's words put Su Yu at ease. Since Yi Lao was perfectly in his hands, there was no need for him to worry about anything.
Then Yi Lao went silent. It was also at this moment that a massive amount of Spirit Power surged into Su Yu's Spirit Sea, rapidly filling his withered Spirit Sea. The overflowing Spirit Power even allowed Su Yu to benefit from it, raising his original Spirit Power a bit.
Yi Lao seemed to no longer need him to provide Spirit Power, but Yi Lao still hadn't said that line of ultimate arrogance, which meant Yi Lao's memories were still severely incomplete.
Hand grasping the sun and moon, plucking the stars, in this world, there is no one like me!
Feeling the power returning once again, Su Yu really had many thoughts. However, since he no longer had to suffer the pain of his Spirit Sea drying up every day, it was necessary for me to go and meet those guys in the imperial capital.
The high-spirited Su Yu set off again. This time, he wasn't here just to watch from the sidelines.
After arriving at the competition venue, there was a unique air about Su Yu; looking from afar, one could feel Su Yu's distinctiveness.
When he arrived at the spectator stand, the first match was already at the point of starting.
That Ma Yingjun from Yunluo Academy opposite was simply completely devoid of fighting spirit; the moment he stepped onto the stage, his heart was already dead.
Don't ask why it was dead; this group of ignorant people on the Douluo Continent, the moment a 100,000-year Soul Ring was mentioned, were so scared that their souls were flying in the sky and their bodies were lying on the ground.
Xu Sanshi's performance could truly be called that of a scumbag; that Ma Yingjun was completely like the foolish son of a landlord.
Anyway, this Yunluo Academy was also just a side character, and this Ma Yingjun was sent off the stage by Xu Sanshi with a single Xuanming Displacement. Just from the first battle, Xu Sanshi's image as a scumbag chewing a cigarette butt was deeply ingrained in people's hearts.
When Ma Yingjun returned to his team with a blank expression, still foolishly asking his captain if he had been tricked, the unscrupulous Su Yu was already laughing until he was doubled over.
Su Yu knew that if Jiang Nannan hadn't been present, Xu Sanshi would definitely have teased this "muscle Barbie" named Shangyue properly.
"Isn't this Su Yu? Have your injuries healed?" A certain royal family member stepped forward to ask.
"Thanks for your concern, the injuries aren't better yet, they can only recover slowly." Some people always have to maintain superficial relationships.
That youth dressed in fine clothes stepped forward mysteriously and said: "I heard that Young Master Su did not kneel to His Majesty yesterday during the ceremony. If this matter reaches His Majesty's ears, I'm afraid it won't end well."
"You are mistaken there. I am from Shrek Academy and am also a substitute for this competition. My every move is strictly in accordance with the academy's regulations. As a participant from Shrek Academy, am I the only one who must perform the kneeling ritual? I'm afraid that wouldn't be in accordance with etiquette, would it?"
Su Yu was very calm. You want to frame me? Keep dreaming.
Didn't expect that, did you? I really am a substitute, hahaha...
Clap, clap, clap...
A series of applause rang out, and Xu Jiujiu, dressed in a long white dress, slowly appeared. "Sure enough, it's been over a year, and the little young master of the Su Family has indeed made quite a lot of progress. Even your sophistry is so sharp-tongued; this is something Jiujiu admires."
"Your Highness is too kind. If you don't believe me, you are welcome to investigate. I, Su, act upright and sit straight." Su Yu didn't care. If your Star Luo Empire really wants to target me, at worst, my Su Family will just move to the Sun Moon Empire. Do you think our Su Family's foundation is really only that which is in the Star Luo Empire?
"In any case, I will tell His Majesty about this matter. If what you say is true, naturally, he won't hold it against you, but if what you say is a lie, I believe your Su Family should know the consequences better than anyone." Xu Jiujiu smiled slightly and then left the place.
This woman doesn't look like a good person at all, insisting on targeting me. Who the hell did I offend!
Looking at Xu Jiujiu's proud expression, Su Yu was truly angered. That woman had often targeted him in the past, mainly because she looked down on Su Yu's status. As a princess, she indeed had her own pride.
"Fine, you'd better not let me get on the stage, or I'll show you how I'll beat your head crooked!"
Mentioning Xu Jiujiu made Su Yu angry. Now she was even threatening him. Fine, if I don't beat your head crooked during the team battle in the future, my surname isn't Su!
…………
"Teacher Wang Yan, do you think Su Yu will be able to compete? If he competes, our pressure will be reduced a lot." Wang Dong asked Wang Yan off the stage.
Regarding martial souls, Wang Yan's knowledge base was indeed astonishing, which was why Wang Dong could only consult Wang Yan.
