Chapter 309: Chapter 309

Du You had made up his mind. If he wasn’t afraid of Lin Feng here, what was there to fear in the Capital? If he wanted to keep going, he couldn’t be afraid of this and that. And if anyone dared to stand in his way, they had better prepare to be toppled by him.

Next, it seemed Liu Jian didn’t fully trust Du You, and kept briefing him about things in the Capital.

However, Liu Jian’s family didn’t have much influence in the Capital, so there wasn’t a lot he knew. He just simplified what he understood for Du You. But later on, he relayed even more information to Fang Shuo.

If Fang Shuo was really coming with him to Nandu, given his personality, Liu Jian, the big boss, felt a bit uneasy. Liu Jian could ignore all the forces in this small city.

But once they got to Nandu, even Liu Jian’s family wouldn’t be invincible.

As for drawing other forces for an outsider, don’t think about it. Liu Jian couldn’t just abandon Fang Shuo, otherwise, he wouldn’t bother taking him to Nandu. It wasn’t easy for the boss to do this for his brother. Fortunately, although Fang Shuo was carefree, he wasn’t clueless.

After eating, everyone went their separate ways, preparing to move forward on their own paths.

As for the farewell meal, there was no such thing. Firstly, their departure time was three days later just after the college entrance examination had finished. So, they couldn’t manage to meet up. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

Secondly, they were Professionals and Semi-Professionals, their status was different than ordinary people. The gap was too large to bridge.

Even if they had a farewell meal, what good would it do to accept the compliments of ordinary people? No one really wanted to be in that situation, and those who did found it useful for nothing other than showing off.

Moreover, their presence could make others feel uncomfortable. The division by ranks had become very severe from this moment.

It was possible that the examination schedule was arranged to avoid this situation. Whether this was the case or not, Du You didn’t know, it was just his guess.

For the next three days, Du You didn’t go anywhere, but he wasn’t idle either. During these three days, Du You mainly stayed at home, using the Magic Network to get some information about the Capital.

Although he could only understand some surface-level information, that was enough for him. Along with the internal information from Liu Jian, Du You believed he would be able to find his footing in the Capital quickly.

In his spare time, Du You made arrangements for his original place of residence, paying someone to clean it periodically, which cost him just a white Crystal Coin.

What frustrated Du You was that there was still no resolution regarding the Blood Lotus. But that was normal as the Blood Lotus had existed for so many years, and with its influence growing so large without being eliminated, catching them wouldn’t be a joke if it was easy. However, the anger was unavoidable.

"Forget it, when I have the chance, I’ll come back and uproot the Blood Lotus here." Du You said to himself. Strength was the most important thing. With enough strength, he wouldn’t have to fear anyone.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed. On this day, Du You arrived at the school early.

The results of the Professional test had already been posted. This time, Lao Er and Lao da arrived even earlier. Although Du You himself had gotten up early, he seemed to be late.

"What’s happening? It’s so lively." Du You had just gotten out of the car when he was immediately met with a wave of attentive eyes. It seemed there was something different about their gaze.

"Lao san, I didn’t expect you to be this amazing. You’re quite the eye-opener." Fang Shuo called out loudly.

Liu Jian silently came over: "Congratulations, with these results, most people wouldn’t dare target you easily. But, you should be careful not to get into conflicts carelessly."

Xi Qianxue also came over to Du You: "We’ll be in the same school in the future, I’ll rely on you to take care of me."

Du You was confused by the people’s reactions, whether it was from people he knew or not, everyone seemed to want to get close to him. The only exception was Lin Feng who was silently distancing himself, jealousy flashing in his eyes.

When Du You went in, he finally understood what was going on. "I guess I showed off a bit too much."

A huge banner was hanging in front: "Celebrating our school for producing the top scholar of the whole alliance."

Yes, "top scholar." His name was at the top, with a score as high as 1036 points, over one thousand! It was terrifying. His performance was perhaps a bit too extravagant.

Below was another banner: "The fifth best in the world. The Asia Alliance’s high school examination fifth ranked scholar was born."

Du You hadn’t expected to become the number one in the entire Asia Alliance and the fifth in history. Du You finally realized that something was wrong. The examination wasn’t region-specific but was the same for the whole alliance.

Even the score ranges might not vary much across different regional alliances. He didn’t initially want to draw that much attention, but this had turned out to be a huge blunder. Now, he wasn’t sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Fifth in history, huh! Well done. I couldn’t tell before." Lao Er patted Du You’s shoulder energetically.

"Hold on, what about the top four?" Du You was suddenly bewildered. Although his scores were higher than he had planned for, they were still within his expectation given his abilities. Why didn’t he secure the top rank? If the plan was to show off, shouldn’t he aim for the top?

Liu Jian promptly explained: "That’s because the top four, no, actually the top sixteen, all reached the second tier during their college entrance examination. Out of these only six scored over a thousand points. You are the only one with such high scores who didn’t reach the second tier." In reality, Liu Jian was also very astonished.

To score over a thousand points, one has to defeat second-tier enemies. Even without the support of equipment or toolkit, it was no easy task considering that those enemies had no mental agility or special skills.

Sixteen of the second tiers, only six could punch through, and even Du You who wasn’t a second tier managed to do it. It was truly unbelievable.

Du You too was surprised, reaching the second tier hunter level within two months was exceptional. It seemed there was always someone better out there. Capital University was a broader world with more geniuses.

"What a pity! We are Professionals; we don’t need to walk the red carpet or anything like that. Otherwise, it would have been a grand spectacle." Fang Shuo, regretfully said, seemingly lost in his imagination.
