Chapter 300 Lu Yu, the Saintess's Walk! Terrifying the Imperial Capital University! The Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
The main world.
Jiang Ji waited outside the dormitory for a long time, but Lu Yu did not come out. Coupled with a lot of intertwined thoughts, she felt a little sleepy. She leaned against the corner, intending to close her eyes and rest, but ended up falling asleep.
Then, she had a dream.
Returning to the ruins, hiding in the broken concrete blocks with exposed steel bars, she held her breath and looked out at the small city where she was born through the narrow gaps.
By this time, the demon horde, led by a Morning Star Overlord, had breached the city. The demons were enjoying a feast of flesh and blood, and corpses littered the ground.
Among them were her uncle neighbor, her playmates, her kind relatives, and even...
parents!
At this moment, their corpses and organs were scattered, they died with despair in their eyes, and their blood gushed out, turning into crimson and staining her world red.
Humans need materials from extraordinary monsters to help their pets advance, while monsters also need flesh and blood with strong spirituality. Therefore, if you want to control the ecosystem, you will be devoured by monsters.
Wars between races are exceptionally brutal!
As a child, Jiang Ji hid here, recording a lifetime of nightmares.
"roar!"
Suddenly, a huge, ferocious beast's eye appeared outside the crevice and stared at her. This sudden change was enough to make anyone's heart stop beating.
This leader-level Heart-Eating Leopard has muscular limbs and a tail like a sharp blade. It can strengthen its physique by devouring the hearts of various creatures and has a keen sense of living things.
It was quite surprised to find a lone prey with an exceptionally strong spiritual nature.
It's a rare delicacy!
"roar!"
Greed filled the leopard's eyes as it raised its sharp claws, ready to crush the cement block made by human technology.
Jiang Ji watched this scene quietly, already knowing what was going to happen next.
Soon, the battle nuns of the Church of Thorns will arrive to protect her during her difficult evacuation.
At that time, Jiang Ji originally wanted to take revenge through his own efforts, but less than a month later, he heard the news that the man-eating tree eagle overlord had been hunted down by the alliance's strongmen, but the other monsters had been tamed and contracted.
In a flash, he became a member of the alliance!
At that moment, facing the nuns' gratified congratulations, she forced a smile, but felt no joy in her heart, only utter emptiness.
After that, Jiang Ji trained desperately, dreaming of this scene countless nights, using the Ring of Thorns to eliminate this pain.
But no matter how many times she came to this dream, how much she struggled, how much she resisted, and how much she roared, she was too weak to change anything.
Even the so-called revenge is crushed in the face of an absolute power disparity.
We watched them leave!
The past is history.
"Wake up and get back to reality."
Jiang Ji neither resisted nor dodged, quietly waiting for the dream to shatter, when she heard a familiar voice:
"A bunch of scum."
As soon as the words were spoken, a storm swept in, shredding all the monsters, including the Heart-Eating Leopard, into a bloody mist. The cement blocks that had been shielding the young Jiang Ji were also shattered, turning into a sky full of bloody dust.
"What happened?"
Jiang Ji looked up in confusion and saw a figure slowly walking towards them from the dust and sand. The figure was dressed in a white robe, had a young and handsome appearance, and an indifferent gaze.
It turned out to be...
Lu Yu!
He raised his head, looked at the domineering man-eating tree eagle roaring in the sky, and said calmly:
"Noisy."
boom!
A pure white light swept across, and the Celestial Breath instantly tore apart the wings of the man-eating tree eagle. Blood, flesh, and feathers fell, and this once invincible overlord monster crashed to the ground, its blood staining the soil. It could only look at Lu Yu with hatred in its eyes.
"The resentment of the weak is but a gentle breeze to the strong, but... who gave you permission to blow the wind on me?"
"Lu Yu" said calmly, then suddenly looked at the dazed young Jiang Ji and said, "So there's still a survivor. Want to see something cheerful?"
Hearing these words, which sounded like they were meant to lure a little girl, Jiang Ji was curious about what would happen to this endlessly recurring dream, even though she didn't know why Lu Yu had appeared in her dream.
So he nodded vigorously.
Then, Jiang Ji's body was swept up by the airflow, along with the dying man-eating tree eagle, and they quickly arrived in front of a huge, blood-red, ferocious demonic tree.
This is a man-eating ancient tree of the wood element, which feeds on flesh and blood. It is a companion plant of the man-eating tree eagle, and its name comes from it.
Because tree roots are firmly planted in the earth and cannot move freely, tree eagles need to catch prey to feed them.
The man-eating ancient tree also produces special fruits from human bone marrow and brain marrow, which are then used to feed the eagle flock.
After consumption, it can enhance the strength of the man-eating tree eagle and make its offspring stronger and have a higher survival rate.
The ancient man-eating tree before us has grown to a height of thirty meters, lush and verdant. Countless lives have been buried beneath its roots. On its blood-red canopy, huge bird nests made of human bones have been built, emitting chirping sounds.
Inside were dozens of man-eating tree eagle chicks and a weak female bird.
At this moment, Jiang Ji finally understood why the man-eating tree eagle overlord had suddenly attacked the city.
A large number of chicks are born, requiring human flesh and blood to feed them.
Lu Yu's voice rang out: "Do you hate it?"
Jiang Ji nodded, gritting her teeth as she said:
"Um!"
"Do you want them to experience the same pain as you?" Lu Yu's coaxing voice rang out, like a demon tempting people to fall.
Jiang Ji fell silent, for the law of the jungle is the rule of the world, and the doctrine of the Thorn Church is to bear the suffering of all things and bring happiness to all beings.
All living beings are not limited to human beings.
When the nuns of the Thorn Church asked her if she was willing to follow the doctrine, Jiang Ji lied and said she was willing so as not to disappoint them.
But she is actually just a selfish little person who only wants to protect humanity and hold up an umbrella for more weak and kind people, and does not want to bear the pain for evil people and those who hurt others.
Why...
Why should they be redeemed just because they lay down their weapons?
Kind people suffer.
They did nothing wrong!
Perhaps it was because of this lie that she was constantly plagued by nightmares.
but now,
Lu Yu gave her a chance to choose again.
Even if it's just a dream...
This time, however, Jiang Ji nodded.
"very good!"
Lu Yu nodded in satisfaction, slowly stretched out his hand, aimed at the bird's nest, and made a grasping motion in the air.
The female bird exploded instantly after giving birth, turning into a pile of bloody flesh and bones, which frightened the chicks, who scattered in all directions and let out terrified cries.
"唳——"
Upon seeing Lu Yu's actions, the man-eating tree eagle overlord let out a sharp cry.
The next moment, it saw the bird's nest, along with the man-eating ancient tree, be set ablaze, and all the man-eating bird chicks were burned to ashes in the flames.
The man-eating tree eagle overlord cried out incessantly, shedding tears of blood, before being torn apart by pure white light.
Jiang Ji stared blankly at the flickering firelight, lost in thought.
However, Lu Yu did not stop there. Instead, he launched a genocide against several demon nests in the surrounding area that had participated in the attack on human cities. Large numbers of demons fled in terror at the figure in the sky.
Any demon that dares to cast a hateful glance at him will be mercilessly crushed by him.
With absolute dominance, it reigns supreme over the land!
"Remember, for those who want to inflict pain on you, let them feel ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times the pain. If that still doesn't solve the problem, then deal with the one who raised the problem."
"Lu Yu" said slowly.
He would never let his enemies cause him to lose his spirit, after all, he was always kind-hearted and didn't hold grudges against the dead.
Listening to these villainous-sounding words, Jiang Ji simply looked at him, her feelings complicated.
Sure enough, even the Lu Yu in his dream was exactly the same as him.
If all living beings cause him suffering, then kill until all things are silenced. Such behavior contradicts the Thorn Church's philosophy of bearing the suffering of all living beings.
But this behavior made Jiang Ji experience something for the first time in her dream...
carefree!
But what she wanted to know even more was why Lu Yu, in this situation, carried pain comparable to that of the world.
Jiang Ji didn't know, but she was able to do one thing.
Obtaining the Eye of the Evil King might help Lu Yu resolve his endless suffering and bring him good fortune. With his abilities, he would certainly do better than I could and save more people!
This can be considered a perfect ending to my failed life!
Jiang Ji was about to say thank you, "Lu Yu..."
Before she could finish speaking, the world around her changed. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Lu Yu standing in front of her, dressed in casual clothes.
From the dream... back to reality!
Lu Yu had just returned from the Mother River when he sensed fluctuations in the atmosphere outside. Somewhat puzzled, he changed into the new clothes woven by the little spider and went out.
Then they saw Jiang Ji, dressed in the distinctive nun's uniform of the Thorn Church, leaning against a corner, her body trembling slightly. Her plump thighs, unusually without black stockings, were covered in sweat, which, under the sunlight streaming through the glass window, reflected a luster like white jade, and the thorn rings on them slowly tightened.
His expression shifted between pain and joy...
Hmm, there's a problem!
As expected of a candidate for sainthood in the Thorn Church, she is indeed more erotic than the average nun.
Lu Yu was about to say hello when he heard Jiang Ji call his name.
This made him somewhat embarrassed, but he also knew that what the other party cared about was the pain of the forbidden curse spreading on his body. Once it was eliminated, he might receive the ultimate blessing from the Mother of Thorns.
I just didn't expect...
I've been thinking about it day and night!
Seeing Jiang Ji in a daze, Lu Yu, to prevent this big spender from getting angry, offered him a way out:
"While I don't mind being used as a dream subject, please use it gently, and if possible, pay some copyright fees."
"..."
Jiang Ji recovered from her daze, looked at Lu Yu who was joking, and seeing the image of him overlap with that in her dream, she said seriously:
"Alright, then let's add another million!"
If she could win the Saintess Championship, money would be meaningless to her. Although 80 million was the limit, she could sell her personal belongings to get the money.
At least, it can help him a little more!
"Adding a million so casually, is that what a rich woman is like?"
Lu Yu was amazed by Jiang Ji's generosity. Indeed, frequent contact with wealthy and powerful women does bring good fortune to men.
May the god of poverty be banished at once!
Lu Yu accepted it without hesitation and asked curiously:
"How long have you been here?"
How long did this woman stay up before she finally fell asleep?
"Just arrived," Jiang Ji replied, then, realizing the reason was too flimsy, added, "I've been a bit tired these past few days and get sleepy easily." Lu Yu nodded, not pressing further, giving Jiang Ji some face, and instead said:
Did you go to university?
"No." Jiang Ji shook her head. She grew up in the Thorn Church, where there were nuns who taught her. Most of her time was spent either praying, fighting monsters, or taking care of children in an orphanage.
Because of the peculiar nature of the Church of Thorns, they rarely interact with outsiders, and even their knowledge of men comes from the books drawn by the nuns.
Lu Yu was practically her only male friend!
Lu Yu said righteously, "Anyway, there's still more than half a day before the Saintess competition. Let me take you to experience a class!"
Actually, the main reason is that he has missed too many classes recently and needs to attend make-up classes. Although five teachers are not enough to make him fail, the credits for perfect attendance are still...
He wanted it too!
Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are.
Moreover, using the paid time that the sponsor paid for to do your own thing is the same as slacking off while being paid by the boss.
However, while others skipped class with girls, he took girls to absorb knowledge.
Look at that, that's the vision of a philanthropist like Lu!
"Class begins... Okay!"
Jiang Ji paused for a moment, then nodded, but looked somewhat nervous, as this was the first time someone had offered to take her to class.
Just like...
Just like any other girl!
The two quickly found the classroom for the combat department, which was a large hall filled with freshmen and some sophomores. The lecturer was Shang Yuguang.
"This guy actually showed up!"
The other students were also surprised to see Lu Yu. What day was it? This blond guy was even in class.
But when they saw Jiang Ji following them like a little shadow, they instantly understood...
This bastard is here to show off and flaunt his relationship with the saintess!
Damn it, no way... never mind, I'm just so envious!
The group felt like they had been fed both lemons and dog food at the same time. The most important thing was that they couldn't beat this guy up. After all, with his record of defeating Huiyue, only the top geniuses of the previous years and a few from the border could compare to him.
So he could only swallow his anger and secretly curse him to be squeezed like sugarcane in the future!
Qi Wei felt a chill run down his spine when he saw this scene.
Thankfully, my cousin wasn't there, otherwise I would have been treated like a dog again.
Why is Jiang Ji here too?
Seeing this scene, Akatsuki Honglian subconsciously clenched her fists.
Lu Yu is even more alluring to the opposite sex than a succubus. If this continues, my immoral... no, my sister will be in danger!
Hearing the commotion, Shang Yuguang turned around and saw Lu Yu and Jiang Ji behind him. His lips twitched slightly, he rolled his eyes, and said:
"Come in!"
Although his words were calm, the students below could still hear a hint of joy in them.
Aside from being a bit greedy, Lu Yu is top-notch in character, strength, and talent. Now, he has even defied the odds against Huiyue, making him a well-deserved top prodigy of the younger generation!
It is also the new generation of flagship university of the Imperial Capital!
However, the last point is controversial. After all, Lu Yu had only been enrolled for a few days and spent most of his time out and about, so he did not receive enough exposure to the university.
So, in most people's eyes, everything he has is due to his own efforts!
Teito University?
Sorry, we're not familiar with each other!
This has also become a weapon for outsiders to attack Imperial University. Look at Lu Yu, he can become stronger without you!
This annoyed Shang Yuguang, but since Lu Yu was here today, he could fill his head with more knowledge. He cleared his throat and began his lecture:
"As we all know, because of the appearance of the ruins, many alien races on the other side of the Great Abyss have also increased their troops to try to seize them. Even some neutral races have joined in, which has almost turned into a chaotic battle among all races, greatly increasing the pressure on the border battlefield."
Most of these generals were senior students from our combat department. Some of them advocated taking the initiative to attack, while others felt that stability should be maintained and casualties reduced.
So, I've chosen this as my topic, dividing you into radical and conservative factions based on your tactical styles. Which faction would you choose, and how would you proceed?
Because the alliance had a strong martial spirit, almost everyone chose the radical faction after Shang Yuguang finished speaking.
Qi Wei was the first to answer, shouting loudly:
"Get the Alliance to send reinforcements, and let's beat them to a pulp!"
The others burst into laughter. Although it was vulgar, it suited the temperament of warriors, and they all offered suggestions.
Some suggested uniting with other allied races, forming alliances, stretching the battle lines, and wearing down the enemy.
Some have suggested sending top assassins to kill the opposing commanders, causing them to fall into internal strife and then clipping their wings.
Some have suggested increasing research into poisons, directly poisoning the enemy to weaken them before launching a full-scale attack.
Red Lotus Akagetsu also stood up and offered a suggestion, but she was good at head-on confrontation and gave examples of tactics for different terrains.
Shang Yuguang listened attentively, taking notes of each student's tactical style.
The Imperial Capital University is a holy land for beast tamers not only because of its extremely strong educational resources, but also because it excels at teaching according to aptitude, allowing everyone to give full play to their strengths.
They often train top-tier players!
Even Jiang Ji, who was auditing the class, was called on. She stood up in a panic and stated her position: she was also a radical. However, her suggestion was to train more medics to reduce the casualty rate.
Shang Yuguang smiled and nodded, gesturing for her to sit down. Then, looking at Lu Yu, who was deep in thought beside him, he asked, as was customary:
"Lu Yu, which faction do you choose?"
"Conservatives!" Lu Yu replied, drawing everyone's attention.
Conservatives are not the reason for the shock!
The main thing is that it's hard to imagine... Lu Yu, the villain who has destroyed secret realms and small worlds one after another and is known as Lu Shi Ren Fei, is actually a conservative.
However, considering his bullying tactics, it seems quite reasonable; he is adept at suppressing opponents with absolute advantage and minimal cost.
Isn't this just a conservative tactic?
Having realized this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
After all, they will be exploring the ruins soon, and they will most likely be going to the battlefield, possibly under the command of Lu Yu.
The relationships formed among classmates in this era are extremely reliable.
Following an extremely cautious leader may be safe, but it can never truly satisfy the youthful passion of a young person.
Most people understand this, and it even makes many veterans envious.
However, some geniuses were unwilling to accept this, and some even thought that if they were assigned to Lu Yu's command, they would have to be transferred out so that they could fight freely on the battlefield.
Only in the chaotic staircase,
Only then can you reach a higher level!
Shang Yuguang's eyes lit up; finally, he had heard a different answer. Curious, he asked:
What are your thoughts?
There is no eternal victory; the true essence of the battlefield lies in the balance between offense and defense!
There are too many radicals among the human race now, and there is an urgent need for conservatives to provide checks and balances.
"As a conservative, I think..." Lu Yu stood up, looked at his classmates, and said seriously, "The radicals are far too conservative. Why don't we just wipe them out one by one? Wouldn't it be peaceful if we killed them all?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone stared wide-eyed at the man in disbelief!
"puff--"
Qi Wei had just taken a sip of water when he heard this, and sprayed it all over Wang Yan in front of him, apologizing repeatedly.
The latter wanted to explode, but considering that the other person was from the same high school as Lu Yu and might have some connection, he could only swallow his anger and say dryly, "It's okay."
Qi Wei breathed a sigh of relief, his feelings extremely complicated.
Who told you that conservatives are...this conservative?!
They were only thinking about defeating the enemy on the battlefield, but Lu Yu's move would mean the extermination of their entire race.
As expected of you, Lu the Yellow Hair!
"This guy... he's even more demonic than a demon from the abyss!"
Red Lotus was also stunned. She was glad that her mother had chosen early and joined the human race camp in advance. Otherwise, it would have been too terrifying to encounter a top-level monster who thought about exterminating the race every day.
Jiang Ji's eyes widened as well, realizing that if Lu Yu continued down this line of thinking, the world would...
It is indeed not easy for suffering to arise!
After all, they're all lying there like corpses, so who would care if they're in pain?
Shang Yuguang looked at Lu Yu in shock, then asked a question:
"But behind some races are ancient giants, ecological masters, or even true kings..."
"They are not gods. Even if they were, they would be buried in the old days!" Lu Yu said calmly.
Just kidding, his biggest reason for wanting to go to the battlefield is for materials and inspiration.
That was the key to his becoming stronger.
In particular, the annihilation of a large race is equivalent to the destruction of a nation, representing enormous wealth.
Although he is weak now, it doesn't mean he won't be strong in the future. In fact, he can also target an ancient giant in his twilight years and give him a good beating.
Shang Yuguang remained silent, able to tell that Lu Yu was not joking, and then mentally labeled him as an extreme radical.
If this kid were to actually go to the battlefield, following this tactical approach, he would definitely become a thorn in the side of many powerful figures.
As for what Lu Yu said, he didn't take it all to heart. After all, youthful impetuosity is the norm for geniuses, and they'll learn their lesson after suffering a few setbacks.
We'll need to ask the border military to take good care of us then; if things fall apart halfway through, it will be a loss for the human race.
Next, Shang Yuguang continued attending classes as usual, even deliberately avoiding Lu Yu's questions, for fear that he would say something shocking again.
However, the other students kept stealing glances at him.
Some people were dismissive, thinking that Lu Yu was too boastful, but some warmongers were delighted, thinking that the battlefield would no longer be boring.
Of these, only Jiang Ji and Chi Yue Hong Lian thought that Lu Yu might actually be able to do it!
After class, quite a few people tried to get closer to him under the guise of asking for advice on conservative policies.
Lu Yu responded with a smile, without the slightest arrogance, and then took Jiang Ji to check off the potion, ritual, nurturing, and archaeology departments.
He also greeted the president and Yu Xiyan, and attended class attentively, absorbing knowledge like a sponge.
Although many things can be seen through the Eye of Truth, he prefers to complete the learning process himself.
Step by step, we built the most solid foundation.
Many teachers nodded in approval. Although Lu Yu had great ambitions, his attitude toward learning was commendable.
Hard work naturally pays off, making up for Lu Yu's shortcomings in various aspects, with the greatest gains coming from the potion system.
Lu Yu was now confident that he could create a potion that would gain the approval of the [Master of the Gate] talent.
Moreover, the target chosen was none other than the most famous and best-selling potion in the capital city.
It's not that its function is particularly suitable for men, but rather that it has the lowest barrier to entry, yet it belongs to the category of extraordinary potions. It has few side effects, and the materials are cheap, but as long as a beginner becomes skilled, they can easily make it. It is considered an introductory potion in the potion category.
It ensured that every new potion-making student would not be destitute!
Unfortunately... because Lu Yu pursued high quality too much, he wasted more than a hundred sets of materials, including the twenty sets that Chi Yue Meng had given him, which angered Mao Guixian, a young married woman, so much that she kicked him out.
"If I make another fifty, I'm absolutely certain I'll succeed."
As the sun set, Jiang Ji watched him grumbling and cursing, a faint smile curving her lips.
Today was the happiest day she had ever had.
Next...
We're off to participate in the Saintess Contest!
A long chapter of 6,000 words, please vote with monthly tickets, the new plot begins next.
