Chapter 499 - 232 Departure to Demon City to Participate in the National League!_3
Otherwise, being a Rat-man for the rest of my life... that would be unbearable.
Liu Xiaoman felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, somewhat uncomfortable, as she sensed Su Yan glance at her out of the corner of his eye. Strong-willed since childhood, this was the first time a boy’s gaze had made her feel embarrassed.
It couldn’t be helped. After all, Su Yan was indeed handsome, the most eye-catching young man she had encountered in her twenty years.
Most importantly, this junior from the Institute of Beast Taming could really fight.
While still in his freshman year, he was able to reign supreme within Jiuzhou’s top-tier Evolution Academy, which was simply inconceivable.
To sum it up in five words: handsome and a capable fighter.
For Liu Xiaoman, who had very high standards and had been single all her life, Su Yan possessed a fatal attraction.
"Younger Brother Su, do you have confidence in helping Jing University win first place in Jiuzhou this time?" Finally unable to sit still, Liu Xiaoman couldn’t resist speaking to Su Yan, hoping to break the awkward silence that enveloped her.
Su Yan glanced at the stunning senior from the Institute of Spirit and replied nonchalantly, "I suppose I can."
Such arrogance!
Hearing Su Yan’s reply, not only Liu Xiaoman but also Su Zicheng and Qiu Ziluo, who were sitting in front, thought the same thing simultaneously.
This freshman was really something else.
His first time in the National College Student Competition, and he was already aiming for the championship.
Wasn’t he being too arrogant?
Couldn’t he be a little more modest?
"Su Yan, I have great faith in you, and I hope you can win the championship for Jing University this year." Dean of Blood and Qi Academy, Li Shanhai, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, turned his head around at some point and spoke with a smile.
This wasn’t mere encouragement; he genuinely had faith in Su Yan.
This was, after all, an evolutionary genius who had dominated Jing University as a freshman. Even winning the championship in the upcoming National College Student Competition wouldn’t be particularly surprising for him.
In fact, it was almost expected.
Although the quality of Jing University’s students this year wasn’t quite on par with Demon University’s, the difference was minimal.
Before Su Yan emerged, most people believed Jing University’s chances against Magic University this year were about three to seven.
Now that Su Yan had appeared, many of Jing University’s leaders believed their chances were at least four to six.
Perhaps even fifty-fifty.
Su Yan’s terrifying display of strength in the internal selection competition had filled many within Jing University with confidence.
Soon, the topic of whether Su Yan could win the championship was dropped. Instead, the conversation shifted to Jing University’s potential rivals this year.
Su Yan remained silent throughout, quietly listening to their discussion.
After listening for some time, he gained a general understanding of this year’s top championship contenders.
First on the list was a senior from Demon Capital University named Lu Tianyi.
This student, Lu Tianyi, had steamrolled all his opponents last year when he was still a junior, successfully bringing back the National College Student Competition championship for Demon University.
He also became Jiuzhou’s first-ever non-senior champion, sending shockwaves throughout the region.
Second on the list was a freshman from Nanjiang Evolution University named Zhou Yuanwei.
Reportedly, this student was a highly-coveted provincial top scorer recruited by South River University with the aim of achieving a good result in this year’s National College Student Competition.
Unexpectedly, this student, Zhou Yuanwei, delivered a pleasant surprise to the leaders of South River University. He had rapidly developed into Jiuzhou’s strongest freshman in history, his probability of winning the championship second only to Lu Tianyi.
Ranked third was Su Yan himself, the strongest freshman ever in Jing University’s history.
After him came Su Zicheng, previously considered Jing University’s most promising candidate for the year.
As for the fourth, fifth, and sixth contenders, those in the car didn’t discuss them much.
Zhou Yuanwei, Jiuzhou’s strongest freshman in history... could he also have some kind of cheat, like me? Su Yan thought to himself, quite curious about this freshman named Zhou Yuanwei from South River University.
