"I don't have his contact number, but we agreed that if he's not at home and I can't contact him, I can go to his house and find him. He'll leave some contact numbers."
"Are you sure your adoptive father's just a bankrupt thief? Not some kind of spy or something? "
"It's not as complicated as you think. He just has a lot of enemies and creditors, so he's always prepared to run."
"Okay, that's a good reason."
After wasting four days, Carrie finally got into the swing of things.
On the same day, they bought a flight to Switzerland.
…
"President, do you have time now? Come to the headquarters."
"Sure, I'll go now."
After arriving at the headquarters, West tossed a document to Chen Zhao.
"The National Youth Supernatural Fighting Competition." Chen Zhao flipped through a few pages and put it down silently. He held his forehead. "Is the government joking?"
"No, it's serious. It's in Los Angeles and hosted by the Supernatural Organization."
"I'm sure now that the government is joking."
Chen Zhao wasn't interested at all. Very uninterested.
A competition for a group of youths?
The supernatural world in North America wasn't active to begin with.
Those who could participate had to be awakened first.
This was already a part of it.
Then there was an age restriction.
Since they were youths, they couldn't be very old.
How many awakened youths could there be in America?
Therefore, it was destined to be a battle between a few families with a certain amount of heritage.
Actually, there were similar competitions for youths in other major regions. Whether it was Huaxia, Japan, or Europe, they all had similar competitions.
However, the most important thing to hold a competition like this was that there had to be enough active supernatural areas.
In such active areas, family inheritance had certain advantages, but each power and individual would have their own opportunities too.
There were many participants, but no one could guarantee victory.
But what about the Americans?
When the tiger was gone, the monkey was king.
Actually, the Supernatural Organization was the monkey king.
The Supernatural Organization was only average in the entire world.
But in North America, they were the top supernatural organization.
There weren't many people in the first place. Now, they were choosing the champion among them.
It felt like the champion was already decided.
"There's no other way." West shrugged. "Now that the government has also noticed the Spirit Energy Tide, they want to make use of it to reserve talents in the supernatural field. The government has also realized this problem, so they have set the age limit of the competition at 22 years old. This way, there will be a lot more people participating."
"A 22-year-old is still considered a teenager? Isn't it better to just call it a youth tournament? "
"There's nothing we can do about it. If we really wanted to have a youth competition, the number of participants would definitely not be enough. In fact, it's just a youth competition in the name of youth."
"Must you do it?"
"We are funded by the government, so we still have to do the tasks assigned by the government."
"Alright then, you make your own arrangements. This has nothing to do with me. Our people won't get involved, right?"
"Our men are not involved."
How could West arrange his own people?
Right now, they were walking the path of the elite.
They had a lot of resources and rich combat experience.
The younger generation of ordinary clans really couldn't compare.
Therefore, if their children were to participate, it was very likely that they would break out of the encirclement.
Especially Jollinash, Helise, and Moore. They were all typical representatives.
There was also Chen Zhao's student, Litt Grove. He wasn't a captain, but he was at least an official member. Now that he was in Engelite's team, his performance was quite different.
Basically, this competition was to find talents for the government.
How could they give their people to the government for free?
Even West had the mentality of just dealing with the matter.
How could they really give their own people away?
"Who's paying for this competition?" Chen Zhao suddenly asked.
"The government's special department earmarks."
"Will the Psionic Team participate too?"
"Probably. For them, this is a chance to accumulate experience. They also want the government to see their results."
The Supernatural Organization didn't care about the opportunity to gain combat experience because they had plenty of opportunities to do so.
Moreover, it wasn't in the ring, but on a real battlefield.
But other forces might not have this chance.
"Whatever. If they want to participate, then let them."
Chen Zhao shook his head. They had never been a match for the Supernatural Organization.
The organization had always treated them as targets.
Just then, Rouen Faxben ran in. "President, Mr. West, I hope I'm not disturbing you?"
"You're already in," West said, annoyed. "Are you looking for me or the president?"
"I'm looking for the president. I found a young man recently. I think he's talented and he's in L.A. right now. President, how about you come with me?"
"Go find a disciple yourself. Why should I go with him? Do you want me to beat him up? If that's the case, I'm happy to help. "
"Not really … as long as he doesn't ask for something as ridiculous as that guy last time. But if he needs to show off his strength, then give him a heavy blow."
Chen Zhao finally understood. He wanted him to go with him and scare him when necessary.
"I'm free too," West said. "Let's go together."
Rouen Faxben shrugged. It didn't matter if it was two or three.
Along the way, Rouen Faxben told Chen Zhao about the kid he liked.
"Fourteen. His parents aren't very rich. They're both ordinary people. His father is a firefighter and his mother is unemployed."
"Then how did he learn alchemy?" Chen Zhao asked. "He already has a master?"
Unlike other spiritualists, alchemists had to have a master to teach them even if they were Awakened.
"It's an alchemy book I left behind. In fact, a few years ago, when he was Awakened, I secretly left him an alchemy book. I've also been observing him secretly. If he shows talent in alchemy, I'll get in touch with him."
"Isn't the chance too low?"
"If you do the same thing a few times, you'll eventually meet someone with talent."
"How many Awakened kids did you find?"
"Not many, just a hundred or so," Rouen Faxben said.
Chen Zhao was speechless.
West was speechless.
"How did you find so many Awakened kids? I feel like the Supernatural Organization hasn't dealt with as many Awakened cases in the past two years as you did, and they're all kids. "
"It's simple. I've created a magical device that can detect the abnormal spiritual waves on ordinary people. The spiritual waves produced by ordinary people either come into contact with a spiritualist or they've awakened. With a little analysis, we'll be able to determine if they've awakened."
