Chapter 361: More Friends, More Alternatives (2)

"That makes sense."

Old Huang nodded in agreement.

Su Yu only smiled. These two were way too eager in offering him their opinions. Perhaps they had been too bored staying here. As for the ability of the new character...

Su Yu sent his willpower into the dim character. A stream of information flowed into his mind, telling him about the new character. He had not only formed several strokes of the character. Rather, he had formed a complete character.

As for the reason for him always forming complete characters, he could only guess that the book was the reason. Generally, a cultivator would need to form their character one stroke at a time.

Su Yu was in the mood to chat as well so he said, "Teacher Nie, I don't think my character's ability is to turn into a saber. I think it is capable of increasing sharpness and unleashing saber qi."

"Hmm?" Old Nie looked at Su Yu in amusement and said, "Kid, that's a beautiful dream there, but you never know what you get. In fact, even saber transformation is already a decent ability. Maybe your character can only be used as a wheatstone or something."

"Teacher, do you want to take a bet with me?" Su Yu revealed an honest smile and said, "You said that I was wrong. If I can prove that I was right, can I enter the grotto for free from now on?"

Old Nie looked at Su Yu suspiciously. After a while, he said, "How long will you take to complete the character? You can only know the ability after completing the character. Who knows if you'll take the chance to change to a different character in the following months? I won't be able to know that."

Su Yu was about to further shock Old Nie, but he decided against it after a short thought.

Forget it. His ability to form a complete character immediately was still a secret. Apart from Bai Feng and Liu Wenyan, nobody knew about it. And it might not be a good idea to reveal this secret to more people. Forget it.

Even Bai Feng didn't know the full truth. Bai Feng only thought that Su Yu would occasionally form complete characters. Even now, Bai Feng still thought that Su Yu was in the process of completing that myriad race character he had formed previously.

"Forget it, then. It will take months and we never know what will happen during that time."

Su Yu smiled and returned to his reading. Old Nie looked at Su Yu doubtfully. Old Huang was also feeling suspicious. This kid looked really confident for a moment there.

"Old Nie, don't tell me he really knows the ability of his new character."

"I'm not sure. Maybe he already has the same character and is trying to scam us with it?"

"That's very likely. This kid is definitely not as honest as he looks."

The two exchanged knowing looks. The damn little rascal was trying to scam them! Scum! Did the kid think that they were stupid? Suddenly, new visitors arrived. There were two of them, and both were covering their faces with the hoods they were wearing.

The expressions of Old Nie and Old Huang changed as both stood up together. Old Huang coldly said, "It's enough for the student to come. Why is the dao guardian here as well? All dao guardians should stay outside the Grotto District. Who gave you the permission to enter?"

The person on the back replied with a hoarse voice, "My apologies. Principal Wan said that us dao guardians will be allowed to enter these grottos from now on. As long as we have enough total earned merit, we can enter. The human race is generous enough to grant dao guardians like us access to the grottos as well."

Old Huang's face changed as he looked at Old Nie questioningly. Old Nie nodded slightly. This dao guardian was most likely telling the truth. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to get through the guards. Perhaps the academy had already sent an official notice down and they had simply not been paying attention.

Old Nie did not waste any time and turned on the device in front of him. After checking around, he said, "A notice has been sent down on the 1st. We did not notice it. In that case, you can be here."

But his tone was still unfriendly as he said, "Even if you can enter, the Source Qi Secret Grotto can only be used by those at the Skysoar Realm and below. You are obviously above that level. Do not enter any grottos without permission."

"My apologies. This is my first visit so I still don't know how things work here." The most update n0vels are published on (ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

The person with the hoarse voice did not dare to show any anger despite the cold treatment. After all, they were currently within the Human Realm. Su Yu had been watching silently.

The two were covering their faces, so he couldn't get a good look at their appearance. He did manage to see the appearance of someone from the fox race previously. That person had too much fur on her face and was completely unattractive for Su Yu. He wondered what race these two were from.

They did look similar to humans, but with their hoods, Su Yu would need to scan them with his willpower to know their actual appearances. And he was not bored enough to do something like that.

While he was observing the two, they were also looking at him. They were studying him. This was Su Yu. They knew him. This was the student who had nearly caused the death of an elder not long ago. He might be the scariest student of this year's batch.

Old Huang said, "Wait outside. You might need to wait a while since the grotto is still occupied. And you, are you cultivating in the Infinite Strength Zone?" He looked at the person at the front and frowned, "Name, student number, and cultivation level. Let me check your total earned merit."

"Xia Qing, student #021, first-stage Infinite Strength Realm."

A female voice rang out. That was a refreshing voice to hear. The first thing Su Yu thought of when he heard the voice was the white civet in the prison zone. The white cat had also spoken with the same tone when they first met.

So this was...a female? What race was she from? She wasn't from the furry fox race right? Infinite Strength Realm...she wasn't weak.

While Su Yu was thinking, Old Huang checked the database and raised his brow, "You have sufficient total earned merit. Placed top 10 in the faculty's monthly exam twice and the contribution of a profound-grade martial technique..."

Xia Qing stayed silent.

The dao guardian said, "I'll be troubling both of you with the princess, then. I'll take a look around while the princess is in the grotto. Are there any suitable grottos for me here?"

Princess? Su Yu grew even more curious. This was a princess? Wow. She was quite an important person.

Old Huang couldn't be bothered to exchange pleasantries with the dao guardian and indifferently waved the guardian away. When he saw Su Yu looking at the hooded student curiously, he transmitted his voice and scolded, "What are you looking at? Are you even interested in someone with a tail? She's from the cloud tiger race. The cloud tigers aren't too strong. This is only a minor race."

Cloud tiger.

Su Yu quickly recalled what he knew about this race. This race was indeed not too strong. Among the tiger races, the strongest was probably the flying sky tiger race that was ranked 32nd among the myriad races.

As for the cloud tiger race...he couldn't remember seeing their rank. He only knew that this wasn't a strong race. Otherwise, he would have known more about them. With the knowledge that this was the princess of the cloud tiger race, he lost interest.

The leader of a minor race like this was probably only a Mountainsea. And her dao guardian felt weaker than Old Huang and Old Nie. The guardian was probably a Cloudbreach that was weaker than the two. No wonder this princess here didn't look too impressive.

Su Yu was more curious about her surname. Why was her surname Xia? Was she a child of the Xia Family and the cloud tiger race? Of course, not everyone with that surname would be related to the Xia Family.

While Su Yu was musing to himself, Xia Qing walked up to him and gently spoke in the human language, "Hello, Student Su Yu. Can I get to know you? I witnessed your victory over Senior Huang not long ago."

Su Yu looked up and folded the willpower text in his hands. He was feeling suspicious. Why was she getting so close to him? Was she trying to take a peek at his willpower text? Sure enough, the myriad races could not be trusted! Just look at how this princess was taking any chance she got to pry on the secrets of humanity!

"Hello." Su Yu flashed a warm smile and said, "Nice to meet you, Student Xia Qing. I have heard of the cloud tiger race before. This is an exceptional race. Also, you're amazing, Student Xia Qing. You actually placed top 10 twice and is also an Infinite Strength cultivator. By the way, our vice principal is Xia Changqing. Student Xia Qing..."

Xia Qing smiled and replied with her crisp voice, "I am unrelated to Vice Principal Xia. And this isn't even my original name. After my original name is translated into the human language, it comes with the Qing character. And after entering Great Xia, I naturally need to follow the local customs. Thus, I decided to give myself the name Xia Qing."

"I see." Su Yu nodded and warmly said, "And you're even a princess, Student Xia Qing. It is my honor to meet you here."

"You jest, Student Su..." Xia Qing replied with a delicate voice, "Our cloud tiger race is weak. We are not comparable with the human race. Just the elders of the academy is enough to eradicate our race. We are here to learn from the human race, hoping that we can be of more help to the human race in the Allheaven Battlefield..."

How fake. Su Yu told himself that he was not going to believe a word of that. Helping the human race? Bullshit. He would be happy if they decided to not step on the humans while they were down in the future.

Su Yu did not intend to get involved with this tigress, but he still smiled and said, "It is only natural that our races work together and profit mutually. Your arrival here is a great opportunity in itself, Princess Qing. If you need any help, don't hesitate to contact me. Some students in the academy don't understand the myriad races well. Allow me to apologize for them if some of them had slighted you. After entering the academy, we became fellow students. We're basically family."

Su Yu sighed, "In truth, I am a supporter of Principal Wan's suggestion. What a pity that some people are too stubborn. For example, the people from the single character faction. They are busy creating internal conflicts. These people are akin to cancer. I would rather befriend those from the myriad races than people like them."

With a look of regret, resentment, and helplessness, Su Yu looked at the tigress and said, "I hope you won't get mixed up with those people, Princess Qing. To speak the truth, those people are too arrogant. They believe that they are the best under the sky."

Xia Qing gently said, "These are the affairs of the great Human Realm. People like us naturally won't dare to get involved. We are only here to learn and bring some changes to the cloud tiger race. Student Su, sorry. I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in these matters."

"That's understandable. Don't worry." Su Yu smiled, "If you encounter any trouble that I can help with, don't be shy and come look for me. After all, fate has allowed us to meet here today. Naturally, it would be even better if I can be rewarded with a tiny bit of merit points for my help..."

Su Yu joked, "As a princess, money is naturally the last thing you need to worry about..."

Xia Qing smiled, "Sure. If the need arises in the future, I won't forget you, Student Su."

"..."

While the two were chatting, the two old men looked at each other. Old Huang transmitted his voice, "This kid...is being very friendly with a myriad race member. Is he really so friendly or is he scheming something again?"

"What do you think?" Old Nie was very straightforward, "Look at the cheerful smile on that kid's face. He looks so shifty. He keeps trying to dig information from her. If they continue this conversation, he will probably start asking her how much money she has."

At that moment, Su Yu softly asked, "Princess Qing, as guests in the Human Realm, you must have arrived with zero merit points, right? You have probably arrived with some resources instead. I have a friend. He's very well-connected. If you need merit points, you can sell some of your treasures to my friend. You haven't been selling to the academy or the Xia Trade Company, right? That's a scam!"

Su Yu whispered, "For example, the academy will only pay you one merit point for a drop of source qi liquid. If you're buying, you need to pay five merit points. If you look for me, I can buy it at a price of two merit points per drop. If you wish to buy, I can sell it to you at three merit points."
