June 11th.
After a day of preparation, the news spread.
People from Da Xia Province would come to participate in the higher education assessment in Southern Yuan. Some people from Da Xia Province had already arrived at Southern Yuan, waiting for the assessment.
When the news came out, it was mixed with some criticism.
"Da Xia Province wants to deprive Southern Yuan's students of the higher education quota!"
"Xiahou Ye only wants money. He doesn't care about the lives of the people of Southern Yuan. He even wants to sell Southern Yuan City to Ming Prefecture."
"Southern Yuan has been abandoned by Da Xia Province!"
"..."
All kinds of voices were spreading, including the voices of ordinary people, and some people with bad intentions deliberately misleading the public.
The City Lord's Mansion responded quickly. The Catch Wind Hall was on standby all day. The Southern Yuan Academy also began to explain to all the students.
The quota for the assessment of people from Da Xia Province was a special quota, which had nothing to do with Southern Yuan.
This was an extra quota, and it would not encroach on the quota of students from Southern Yuan.
The public opinion began to change. Of course, not everyone believed it, but it was not as intense as at the beginning. Most people soon believed it.
...
Catch Wind Hall.
It was not the first time for Su Yu to come. He had come with Liu Wenyan several times before.
This time, he did not call Liu Wenyan, but came alone.
In the busy hall of the Catch Wind Hall, Su Yu did not add to the chaos. At the moment, he squatted in the corner and chatted with an old Catch Wind Constable who was smoking.
"Uncle Li, have you found the trace of Wan Zu?"
"I'm checking."
The middle-aged man's surname was Li, and he was an old man in the Catch Wind Hall. He was at the sixth stage of Kun Realm, but he was only a low-level Catch Wind Constable. His strength was too weak.
Despite his weak strength, the man had been in the Catch Wind Hall for many years, and he was well-informed.
While smoking, he said with a smile, "Little Su, you are the student of all the secondary schools in Southern Yuan!"
The man gave him a thumbs up. "You are the first to participate in the pursuit before you graduate!"
"But …" The man praised, then said in a low voice, "This time, your teacher isn't here. It's very dangerous for you to follow us alone! To put it bluntly, when your teacher isn't around, sometimes it's too late for us to save you. "
Su Yu was like a well-behaved child, he quickly nodded and said, "Uncle Li, I won't cause trouble. I'll just wait outside. It's all up to you guys. If you can leave one or two seriously injured people behind so that I can complete the teacher's assessment, I'll thank the heavens."
The man smiled and said, "Don't worry. If there is a chance, we will let a seriously injured person go. Hall Master has to give face to Instructor Liu! Besides, we have a lot of dealings with your old man. In the past, when we were hunting down Wan Zu, your old man even helped out a little. He can be considered as a non-staff member of the Catch Breeze Hall. "
Su Yu smiled and quickly thanked him.
His father didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but as long as there were people in Southern Yuan who could fight, he was willing to help kill Wan Zu and his people.
Su Long, who was at the ninth layer of Fifteen Jin, could be considered an expert in Southern Yuan.
As the two of them were chatting, one of the captain-level Narcotics Enforcers in the Narcotics Suppression Hall quickly shouted, "North Squad, assemble!"
As soon as he finished, Old Li quickly threw away his cigarette butt and ran toward the hall.
Su Yu also hurried to catch up. He didn't join the team, but stood behind the group without making a sound.
The captain who gathered the team glanced at him and didn't say anything. In a deep voice, he said, "Wan Zu's traces have been found in the suburbs! This time, it's not a large-scale gathering. Some people came out to incite the public. According to the current information, we can roughly confirm that there are three people. "
"Their specific strength is unknown, but the people needed to spread the news won't be too strong."
"The task has been handed over to the North Squad. Everyone has three minutes to get everything ready and set off immediately!"
"Yes!"
Everyone responded. A squad of the Catch Breeze Hall had 30 people, which was not a small number.
The captain was at the ninth layer of Fifteen Jin, and there were several people at the seventh layer of Fifteen Jin and above. The rest were at least at the fourth layer of Fifteen Jin.
After the team members left to make preparations, the captain walked to Su Yu and said solemnly, "The Hall Leader has other tasks, so he won't go. Your teacher didn't come along either. Su Yu, you've also participated in the hunt before, so you know the danger! "
"I know your teacher is at the Soar level, and I have a good relationship with your father, but … during the task period, no one will deliberately take care of you! This is a task, not a joke! "
"A little carelessness can lead to death. Every year, there are people sacrificed in the Catch Breeze Hall. You can participate, but you can't interfere with the Catch Breeze Hall's operation. If you encounter danger, you can run and ask for help, but we may not help you!"
"Your life is life, and so are the lives of others. We won't ruin the whole operation for you!"
The captain was extremely serious. "Now you can choose to leave, or else … you'll have to bear all the consequences!"
Su Yu at the Kaiyuan level was too weak.
Even though Su Yu had participated in several operations before, at that time, Liu Wenyan was there, and even the Hall Leader Zeng Hua was there, so there was no danger at all.
Today was different. Only Su Yu came today.
"Captain Liu, don't worry. My father is a soldier, and I'm considered a reserve. I won't cause trouble for everyone!"
Su Yu answered hurriedly.
Captain Liu nodded slightly, and his attitude softened a little. He warned, "Then be careful. I've also heard that you're a civilizator, and you have special means, but don't be reckless!"
"Understood!"
Su Yu answered, but he smiled bitterly in his heart. 'Civilizator? I'm nothing.'
People in Southern Yuan still didn't know much about civilizators, and there were no civilizators below the Soar level.
…
Three minutes later, all the team members were fully armed and gathered again.
Outside the hall, two trucks had started.
Everyone got on the trucks, and Su Yu also followed.
In the trucks, no one spoke much. They packed up their equipment and checked their rations …
Su Yu also checked his equipment. Medium yellow-class saber, four drops of Ironwing blood essence, three of which he had exchanged at the academy early in the morning, and it cost him three merit points. At the moment, he only had 10 merit points left.
It was better to be prepared, lest one drop was not enough when he encountered danger.
Moreover, the four drops of blood essence were not placed together, lest they were lost in battle. One of the drops was wrapped in a small capsule by Su Yu, and he held it directly in his mouth, so that he could swallow it instantly at a critical moment.
Lei Yuandao had cultivated for a few days, and Su Yu had barely grasped the rudiments. At this moment, he could use the saber, but the speed would not be too fast.
Lei Yuandao had consumed a lot of Primordial Qi, and Su Yu could not connect with the Primordial Qi of the outside world, so he also brought a drop of Primordial Qi liquid this time.
There was still one drop left at home, so there was no need to bring too much Primordial Qi liquid.
One drop was enough for him.
Three drops of blood essence and one drop of Primordial Qi liquid are worth about 200,000.
Su Yu sighed in his heart. If he included the saber, the pre-battle preparations would be hundreds of thousands. If he did not obtain anything, it would be terrible.
It would be best if he did not use anything and killed Imminent to earn some merit points.
If he used it, he would have to kill at least a Qian Jun with one drop of blood essence.
This was the first time he participated in such an operation alone. While Su Yu was excited, he could not help but feel a little nervous.
Now that he had failed, no one would stab him in the back.
Beside him, Old Li was also there. After checking the equipment, he saw Su Yu's tense body and could not help but say with a smile, "Relax, don't be nervous. When we reach the place, we will alight. We will walk very fast, and you might not be able to keep up. "
Su Yu nodded and said seriously, "I know, I will wait outside."
"Be careful. If the other party is intact, even if you see him, it is best to pretend that you did not see him. It does not matter if he runs away, you can kill him sooner or later. Don't fall now!"
"Thank you, Uncle Li."
Their conversation was heard by the others in the car. In the crowd, a young member who looked a few years older than Su Yu smiled and said, "Five years ago, I participated in a mission for the first time. I was also very nervous, but I got used to it. Su Yu, just adjust yourself. Don't be afraid."
"Thank you, Brother Chen."
Brother Chen was not old, not even 30 years old.
At the very least, in the Windcheck Hall, it was not considered big and was considered a small member of the younger generation. Now that they were chatting, their interest was piqued. He smiled and said, "Su Yu, your warrior talent is very strong. Have you ever considered enrolling in the War Academy?"
"My teacher is a civilizator …"
Su Yu Bare One's Teeth smiled and said, "He wants me to enter the War Academy, so I can only go there."
"That's true. Instructor Liu is actually a civilizator. Actually, I only found out about this before."
Brother Chen said and sighed, "In Da Xia Province, warriors are worthless. Civilizators are treasures. Five years ago, I graduated from the Wind Suppression Academy. It is difficult for graduates of the Wind Suppression Academy to find a job in Da Xia Province, unless they are top geniuses. Like us … we can only go back to our homes and small cities to find jobs.
"But in the War Academy, once you graduate … you will become a civilizator. All forces will fight for you."
He sighed. In the Wind Suppression Academy, one could graduate at the middle stage of the Thousand Jun Realm, but in the War Academy, one could graduate at the Soar Realm.
Just from this point, one could see the difference between the two.
Of course, Brother Chen quickly smiled and said, "Su Yu, when you arrive at the War Academy, you will know how difficult it is to graduate. Every year, less than 50 students graduate from the War Academy. You have to know that the annual enrollment is close to 2,000 people. The graduation rate is 2.5%, and there are many old students. Not many can graduate within ten years."
"So few?"
Su Yu was surprised at first, but then he nodded slightly. That was true. Only after Soar Realm could one graduate. Close to 50 people graduated in a year, which meant that there would be an extra 50 Soar Realm experts. It was actually not a small number.
50 people a year meant that they could train more than 50 Soar Realm experts every year. It was equivalent to the City Lord of a small city in Southern Yuan. It was not a small number.
The others did not understand the situation. After checking the equipment, someone interrupted, "Is it so difficult to graduate?"
Most of the older generation in the Wind Suppression Hall were retired soldiers or people who had transferred back to work.
The Wind Suppression Academy had not been established for long, and the graduates were all of the younger generation. Therefore, some of the older Wind Suppression Constables might not have been to Da Xia Province.
Brother Chen nodded and said, "It is really difficult! Of course, the graduation standards are different. For example, Instructor Liu … cough, cough. In the War Academy, he is considered a recent graduate. There are people who graduate at the age of 70. "
As soon as this was said, everyone had a strange expression.
Recent graduate?
Alright, they did not understand the world of Da Xia Province. Anyway, in their eyes, Instructor Liu was on the same level as the City Lord. In the end, he had only just graduated from the Great Xia Civilization University.
As they chatted, they arrived at the place.
They did not go straight to the place where the information was reported. Instead, they stopped about a kilometer away from the place.
They quickly got out of the car. The captain did not say anything and waved his hand. The team was divided into two groups and moved forward separately.
…
Su Yu did not follow any of the teams. He was about 300 meters behind the two teams and moved forward cautiously.
He was not prepared to be the vanguard. Instead, he wanted to see if he could pick up any loopholes from the rear.
No one knew how many people there were in Wan Zu's group. The report said there were three people. As experienced Wind Suppression Constables, everyone knew that the information might not be accurate.
Three people? That was only what you saw.
Maybe there were more hidden inside!
Every year, due to inaccurate information, more than one or two Wind Suppression Constables were sacrificed. This was unavoidable.
Even if there were only three people, if a Wan Shi or Soar suddenly appeared, it would be a big problem.
Wan Shi still had hope, but Soar had no hope. He could only blame his bad luck.
…
In the distance, an ordinary small courtyard appeared in front of everyone.
It was no different from a normal house in the suburbs. There were some vegetable fields near the courtyard, and they could still see the greenery.
The courtyard had a wide view, and Wan Zu's group liked to move in this kind of environment.
Once a large number of people came, they would quickly discover them and escape.
The Wind Suppression Constables had dealt with the other party many times, and they had a lot of experience. If it was not for Su Yu keeping an eye on them, they might not even be able to see where they were.
The 30 people were all pretending to crawl forward. Su Yu did not dare to show his head and squatted in a small pothole to wait.
The captain, who was crawling forward, turned his head and looked carefully. When he did not see Su Yu, he let out a sigh of relief.
He was actually worried that Su Yu would expose himself carelessly, which would easily expose their whereabouts.
When he reminded him before, he was worried that Su Yu would not listen to him. Now, it seemed that Su Yu was quite obedient. After all, he was the son of Su Long, and his father was a soldier. Su Yu did not have the arrogance of those people from Da Xia Province.
…
Holding the knife tightly, Su Yu panted lightly and adjusted his breathing. He was a little excited.
Soon, he calmed down.
It was not the first time. He had killed quite a few people in the Thousand Jun Realm.
At this moment, about 100 meters away from the small courtyard, the people from the Wind Suppression Constables could no longer hide their whereabouts. The captain raised his hand, and the others quickly stood up!
No one shouted. The 30 people moved quickly and rushed toward the small courtyard.
"Wind Suppression Constables!"
A loud shout sounded. The people from Wan Zu's group in the small courtyard had been watching them, and they only noticed them now. With one look, they knew it was the people from the Wind Suppression Constables.
"Retreat!"
A shout sounded, and the next moment, five to six people jumped out of the small courtyard. Not three!
These people were experienced, and they broke out of the encirclement in all directions.
Whoever was unlucky would be caught by the Wind Suppression Constables.
This was also their way of survival. If they were weaker than the other party, they would escape quickly without any hesitation. If they could escape, they would survive. If they were killed, they would be unlucky.
The Wind Suppression Constables usually did not dare to split up. If they split up, their combat power would not be strong, and they would be easily defeated by Wan Zu.
Therefore, the team of 30 people could at most form three encirclement circles.
Then, the others would have a chance to escape!
As expected, the captains of the Wind Suppression Constables did not chase all of them. Instead, they quickly formed into teams of 10 people. Two of the three teams quickly chased in other directions, while the captain personally led a team, kicked open the door of the small courtyard, and rushed in.
Su Yu watched from behind. He was a few hundred meters away, and with his Eyes Aperture open, he could see clearly.
Seeing the actions of the Wind Suppression Constables, Su Yu also gained something.
If it were him, he might have directly led his men to chase after those escaping people. He probably would not have thought that there might be enemies hiding in the small courtyard.
"It's because of the experience …"
Su Yu did not belittle himself. With such experience, he could quickly master it after a few more times.
The two teams outside had quickly caught up with the enemies and began to encircle and kill them.
The sound of weapons colliding rang out in the blink of an eye.
Although these Wind Suppression Constables were not very strong, they had excellent teamwork. Su Yu judged that the one being surrounded was at least at the fifth or sixth layer of Fifteen Jin. But almost at the moment of contact, the other party was killed!
And in the team of 10 people, there seemed to be no one at the seventh layer of Fifteen Jin.
Su Yu took a glance and then ignored them. He quickly looked around.
Five or six people had just jumped out, and two were killed in the blink of an eye. The two teams continued to chase after them, but there were still fish that slipped through the net.
However, those fellows ran very fast. Just now, they could still be seen, but now, they could not be seen.
"The place that Wan Zu and his people chose this time was not very good. The field of vision is wide, and it is easy to find the enemies. But it is also troublesome to run away. I should have chosen a terrain that is easier to escape from …"
Su Yu learned a lesson from this experience. It might be useful in the future.
"The place I chose is also not good. It is behind the Wind Suppression Constables. The enemies might not dare to run here, and they might not be able to run here. Of course, I am just picking up the leftovers. Safety first."
While he was thinking, a shout came from the small courtyard!
In the next moment, a few more figures jumped out.
Sure enough, there were still people inside!
This time, the two teams outside the small courtyard had already gone far away. No one stopped them. Su Yu saw a figure quickly fleeing in his direction.
All of a sudden, Su Yu was completely focused!
They are here!
"This speed … It feels like the guy who chased me last time. Sixth layer of Fifteen Jin?"
Behind him, the captain of the Wind Suppression Constables broke away from the team and quickly chased after him. He shouted, "Those in front, put down your weapons and surrender. The higher-ups have changed their policies. Wan Zu and his people did not commit serious crimes. They can be sent to the Battlefield of Heavens to participate in the war. They are no longer to be killed!"
Su Yu was suspicious at first, but he quickly understood. This was to break the fighting spirit of the other party.
There was no such order from the higher-ups!
The policy of Da Xia Province was to be killed!
Wan Zu and his people knew that if they were caught in Da Xia Province, they would definitely die. Therefore, they would usually fight to the death. This way, the difficulty of the battle would increase. He did not know if this guy would believe it or not.
Obviously, the other party did not believe it, or he still had hope and continued to flee.
200 meters, 100 meters …
He was getting closer and closer to Su Yu, but his direction was a little off.
Su Yu squatted down and quietly moved in that direction.
Very soon, the person arrived. He was still dozens of meters away from Su Yu.
Su Yu stood up and raised his saber. Essence rapidly gathered, and the saber emitted a faint glow. He gathered all the essence in his body and shouted, "Stop!"
It was no longer possible to ambush him.
Then he could only kill him by force!
"Kaiyuan?"
The person who was fleeing had a look of shock on his face!
Kaiyuan Realm!
He was not wearing the uniform of a Windbreaker. Was he … just passing by?
A Kaiyuan Realm dared to stop him?
Was he crazy?
"Don't even think of running!"
Su Yu shouted, "If I stop you, I will be able to get merit points and add points for the test!"
"Courting death!"
That person did not waste any words. In order to avoid being caught up, he raised his saber and slashed at Su Yu.
The two of them quickly approached each other. At this moment, Su Yu's eyes widened. "Hall Master!"
A cry of alarm rang out. That person from Wan Zu was also stunned. Suddenly, there was another person in front of him. Beside Kaiyuan, there was a middle-aged man. It was the hall master of Windbreaker Hall, Ceng Hua.
"It's over!"
This person's expression changed drastically. Ceng Hua of the Wan Shi Realm had actually come!
He turned his head and was about to run. At this moment, Lei Yuandao, who had been preparing for a long time, slashed out with his saber!
Go all out!
Wan Zu charged at Su Yu first, then turned and ran. For a moment, while his body was still turning, the sound of the saber had already sounded behind him!
At this moment, Su Yu, who had gone all out, had broken the illusion. He was already somewhat awake.
Unfortunately, it was too late!
"It's fake …"
This thought flashed through his mind. The saber flashed with energy, and like a bolt of lightning, it slashed down!
Bang!
His head smashed onto the ground. After a while, his body collapsed, and blood dyed the ground red.
Su Yu's face was pale. He sheathed his saber and looked around vigilantly. He did not dare to be careless, afraid that someone would suddenly appear. The blood essence in his mouth was already clenched in his teeth, ready to erupt at any time.
The next moment, the captain charged over. He glanced at Su Yu, nodded slightly, and said with slight surprise, "Not bad, you are very decisive in your attack!"
Without saying anything more, the captain praised him and quickly left. The battle was not over yet.
Su Yu let out a long breath. Success!
It was faster and simpler than he had imagined.
He had killed his opponent with one strike!
But at this moment, his body was hollowed out, and his Yuan Qi was exhausted. Su Yu did not dare to delay. He immediately swallowed a drop of Yuan Qi liquid and began to replenish his Yuan Qi.
"A hundred thousand is gone … I don't know if it's a loss or a gain."
Su Yu smiled bitterly in his heart. Killing a mid-stage Thousand Jun Realm cultivator had cost him two merit points. Was this a loss or a gain?
However, swallowing the Yuan Qi liquid was also helping him cultivate, so it was not a loss.
