A group of geniuses were enthusiastically discussing how to earn money to support themselves. Some people said that they could become musicians in Houhai's bars, while others said that they could become tutors, but it would take a long time for them to get paid.
However, in reality, the musical skills of a group of brats were far from that of a proper musician.
Lü Shu couldn't be bothered to listen to them. Ever since Lü Shu said that he could shatter rocks on his chest, this group of contestants weren't willing to talk to Lü Shu anymore … The style was different!
Lü Shu walked towards a newspaper stand. Cao Qingci didn't participate in the discussion the whole time. She quietly watched as Lü Shu left, but still didn't say a word.
"Boss, make a call." Lü Shu shouted at the newspaper stand's boss. The middle-aged boss raised his head and looked at Lü Shu. Who still used this kind of landline phone these days? Even he himself rarely used it.
But when he looked up, Lü Shu didn't look like a migrant worker. He looked like an ordinary student. It couldn't be that his phone was stolen, right?
Lü Shu's memory was amazing. He casually dialed the number, and the call was immediately connected. The voice on the other side said in surprise, "Hello?"
"It's me, Lü Shu, call … Cough cough, Zu An, hurry to the station to pick me up. You have to be fast, and your posture must be handsome," Lü Shu said.
"Brother Shu!" Chen Zu An said in surprise, "You really came to the capital to report? Wait! I'll be right there! "
After hanging up, Lü Shu stood at the door of the newspaper stand. The middle-aged boss raised his head and glanced at Lü Shu. "40 cents per minute."
"No money." Lü Shu was still standing at the door of the newspaper stand confidently.
"Negative emotion points from Wang Bing, + 99 …"
Before the boss could get angry, Lü Shu said, "My friend will be here soon. He will definitely pay."
When the boss heard this, he saw that Lü Shu didn't look like a rascal, so he didn't care anymore.
The geniuses were still in a heated discussion. "We can stay in the ticket hall tonight. There seem to be chairs there. Should we show our willingness to endure hardship?"
"I think so. What about tomorrow? The point is, we don't even have money for dinner. Should we help others carry their luggage or something? "
"Carrying luggage is a little too low-end … We can't show off our intelligence in front of Tengra's Terra Net. Won't we lose points?"
After discussing for a long time, they still couldn't come to a conclusion.
In fact, many people were very clear that in a business partnership, it was best to have no more than three people who could make a voice and change the decision. More than three people would be the end of the business. Although these geniuses had quickly banded together after overcoming such a predicament and had temporarily put down their modesty and pride, the problem was that no one was willing to submit to anyone else. Everyone wanted to do something shocking to attract the attention of the Tengra's Earth Net.
In the end, no matter who said it, it didn't matter who said it …
Lü Shu looked on happily. Yi Yan looked at Lü Shu, who was being ignored, and said kindly, "Lü Shu, come and discuss with us."
"It's okay. You guys can discuss."
The others were a little angry when they saw Lü Shu like this. Everyone was working hard to think of a solution, but he had to sit back and wait for them to come up with the results of their brainstorming?
In less than 20 minutes, a luxury car drove over with its engine revving. Everyone was stunned. Then, they watched as Lü Shu greeted the people in the car and sat in the front passenger seat.
"That works too?!" Someone was shocked!
"That's cheating!"
No wonder Lü Shu didn't participate in their discussion. It turned out that he had already found a way out!
"Why don't I have friends in the capital …"
"Why are you envious of him? My uncle is in the capital. But think about it, if you use external forces to pass the assessment, how will the Tengra's Earth Net view you?"
"That's true. An assessment is an assessment. How can you use external forces to cheat?"
"Sigh, I thought he was pretty good. But it's better not to use such petty tricks in front of the Tengra's Earth Net."
"Wait, your uncle is in the capital. Can you remember his phone number?"
"Uh … I can't remember …" These days, who would remember phone numbers other than their parents or loved ones? Saying that his uncle was in the capital was just bragging. He didn't even know where his uncle was, let alone his phone number …
Someone said in frustration, "How can Lü Shu remember …"
On Lü Shu's side, Chen Zu An was also a little curious. "Brother Shu, you took away everything for the assessment. It's obvious that you want to test one's temperament. Is it really okay to cheat like this?"
"It's fine." Lü Shu didn't care. "I don't want to be Tengra, nor do I want to be the butler of some state. Why would I need such a good temperament?"
"That's true …" Chen Zu An paused. "Brother Shu, you actually memorized my phone number. I'm a little touched …"
"We're friends!" Lü Shu laughed.
Didn't you say that you would provide food and shelter? Otherwise, I might not have remembered it …
"Where are we going now?" Lü Shu asked.
"Haha, of course to see the prosperity of the capital and the debauchery!"
…
Capital, Soul Alley.
The name of this alley wasn't recorded anywhere, but it really existed.
Walking along the small alley, there was a whole new world.
The layout of the buildings in this alley didn't seem to have any pattern, but it gave off a natural feeling. There were countless hidden paths between the houses with flat eaves, and it was quiet and secluded, extending in all directions.
Moving forward, there was a staircase that led underground at a corner. The staircase didn't have any access control. It seemed that the people stationed here were never worried that someone would break in.
The underground room was extremely spacious and technologically advanced. One of the walls was four meters tall and more than ten meters wide, and there was a huge screen embedded in it.
On the screen were countless surveillance images. In the middle of the room was a control panel. There were buttons and joysticks on the panel, which seemed to be able to control all the surveillance cameras on the screen.
At this moment, Nie Ting sat quietly in front of the control panel. His eyes were unfocused as he looked at the screen in front of him. He seemed to be looking at something, but it also seemed like he wasn't looking at anything.
Shi Xuejin walked in. "Is this really necessary?"
"Yes."
Shi Xuejin thought for a moment and said, "We're in urgent need of power now.
"Petty people are not what we need. They won't be of any help and will only cause a huge mistake," Nie Ting said calmly.
Shi Xuejin sighed. What he wanted to say was that one's temperament could also be modified and spurred on later on. It was too absolute to kill them all at once. Those were all geniuses with A-grade aptitude, and they were all students who had hopes of reaching the top.
Giving up any one of them would be a great loss for the entire cultivation world.
In this regard, Shi Xuejin and Nie Ting had different opinions. However, Shi Xuejin respected Nie Ting's choice. He didn't say anything more. He just sat quietly next to Nie Ting and started reading.
For Shi Xuejin, reading was more important than anything else.
…
The camera on the screen kept changing. If someone didn't know what was going on, they would probably think that Nie Ting was just sitting there in a daze.
However, the scenes were constantly reflected in his unfocused eyes. It seemed that he didn't miss anything.
This room had always been a secret of Tengra's Earth Net. Everyone only knew that all the information would be handed over to Shi Xuejin, who would then send it in, and that Nie Ting was inside.
The people only knew that Nie Ting's martial strength was currently ranked in the top three in the world. The combat strength that he had obtained from his cultivation was terrifying.
However, no one thought that such a person would awaken another terrifying ability.
No one wanted to think about it. It was already terrifying enough. If he awakened another ability … it was really hard to imagine.
Nie Ting suddenly pointed to a screen in the lower right corner. "The kid from the Chen family took Lü Shu away. He openly cheated …"
Shi Xuejin smiled and glanced at him. "Why do you value him so much?"
Nie Ting didn't say anything.
"Do you think … he can become the ninth …?" Shi Xuejin's interest was piqued. "But he is so unscrupulous. What should you do?"
Nie Ting stopped looking at the screen. He closed his cloak and exhaled. "Chaos is coming. It's not good to be too peaceful. Unscrupulous doesn't mean that there is no bottom line. "
"It seems that you really think highly of him." Shi Xuejin smiled and said, "However, I think you will fail. Have you ever thought that he doesn't seem to care about everything he has obtained in Tengra's Earth Net?"
