Chapter 211: Incorrect Information (3.5k)
Upon hearing Su Jiu’s words, Bai Ming was slightly stunned at first, and then a great surge of joy erupted in his heart. Under the bewildered gazes of the others, he eagerly nodded, “With Miss Su Jiu joining, the White Water Society will undoubtedly grow stronger.”
Others might not know Su Jiu’s situation, but he knew it very well. She was an absolute powerhouse, having defeated three Battle Generals with just three swords, one of whom was the leader of the Wolf Tooth Gang, a High-Rank Battle General. Therefore, when addressing Su Jiu, he didn’t use the term junior schoolmate. In his eyes, she wasn’t a junior schoolmate, but a pillar of support!
Su Jiu, unaware of his thoughts, smiled as she heard Bai Ming agree to her joining. She then looked at Bai Qianyu playfully and said, “Little White, I’ve joined your brother’s organization. Take good care of me in the future.”
Bai Qianyu knew Su Jiu was joking, so she didn’t say much, merely rolling her eyes. “Sister Jiu’s strength doesn’t need my care.”
The scene of Su Jiu recommending herself to join the White Water Society was witnessed by passing students. The whispers of discussion grew from low murmurs into a widespread buzz. Initially, the fact that Su Jiu, as a newcomer, had defeated a War General Level cadre of the Student Union but refused the invitation of the Student Union President had already created quite a stir. But then, she turned around and joined the White Water Society, formed by a group of commoners, which further ignited the atmosphere.
The remarks made by some students, suggesting that the Student Union was inferior to the White Water Society, stirred up waves among some freshmen. Unlike the older students, they didn’t know the background of the White Water Society. Seeing such a powerful person as Su Jiu join them, they immediately started having their own ideas.
At this moment, Hu Ling on the stage looked extremely displeased, and her gaze towards Su Jiu was particularly unfriendly. Seeing that the enrollment assessment was basically complete, Su Jiu bid farewell to the Bai siblings and turned to leave first. She still had many things to handle, including the issue of her roommates and a message from someone on her phone.
Hu Ling, standing on the main stage, heard the discussions below. Her face was as dark as a pot of ashes. She clenched her fist for a few seconds, then released it, gritted her teeth, and stared fixedly at Su Jiu’s retreating back. Suddenly, she spoke, “Junior Schoolmate Su Jiu, be careful during the Freshman Chief Selection Meeting in three days. After all, there are many strong opponents, and they are the kind who don’t know how to hold back.”
Hearing these seemingly caring but actually threatening words, Su Jiu’s steps paused. With a slight frown, she turned her head back and cast her gaze towards the judging panel, saying calmly, “I originally had no interest in the Chief Selection. But now that the President has mentioned it, I’ve become somewhat interested.”
The sky had completely darkened. A figure appeared behind Hu Ling. Hu Ling didn’t turn her head but simply said, “Go test her real strength.”
Quickly leaving the noisy assessment area, Su Jiu soon returned to the girls’ dormitory in the Green Campus. Bairnis followed her like a little tail. Su Jiu’s hair had turned black again – the previous white was entirely due to using the scythe transformed from Bairnis.
Su Jiu looked at her phone with a somewhat heavy gaze. It was a text message from the disease control center, and the content was difficult to understand: “Dear Pastor Su Jiu, we apologize for disturbing your rest. If you have time, we hope you can take some time to go to the Central City Hospital for supplementary lessons on the containment methods for Rotskin Disease.”
“Did someone come back?”
Looking up again, Su Jiu saw the half-closed dormitory door and quickly pushed it open. The first thing she saw was an extremely beautiful face, with slightly curly yellow wavy hair and wearing a light pink pajama set. Looking at her first roommate, Su Jiu felt a sense of awe at her beauty and then smiled, saying, “Hello, my name is Su Jiu. I’m a few days late.”
Yun Ling’er’s small mouth slightly parted as she saw Su Jiu’s appearance. She said with a bit of surprise, “Wow, you look just like a doll! You look really good… Oh, right, my name is Yun Ling’er. I have a defensive bloodline.”
But the next moment, the other person seemed to have thought of something and had an urge to speak but hesitated.
Su Jiu noticed the strange look on the other person’s face and then said with some confusion, “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”
Seeing Su Jiu’s bewildered expression, Yun Ling’er took out her phone and showed Su Jiu a video with a peculiar expression. It was the video of Su Jiu being embraced by Bai Qianyu. Meeting Su Jiu’s eyes, Yun Ling’er said very solemnly, “Don’t try anything funny with me at night. I have a boyfriend… and, I’m straight, I like handsome guys.”
“Uh… fellow student Ling’er, don’t worry, I have my principles.”
Seeing the other person’s cautious expression, Su Jiu’s mouth twitched. It had only been a short time, and someone had already made a short video and disseminated it. This made her speechless…
At this time, Yun Ling’er also noticed Bairnis following behind. The latter looked like a servant girl attending to her. Yun Ling’er, who had not believed Su Jiu had principles, suddenly believed her again… “Bringing a maid to school isn’t simple. A maid during the day and a servant girl at night? And this maid is too beautiful, like a Western European noble.” Thinking this, her admiration for Su Jiu skyrocketed, like oxygen reaching a mountain peak. This sister was too awesome.
Su Jiu, naturally unaware of what she was thinking, walked in and found that the other two roommates had not yet arrived. Looking at the empty beds, she asked with some confusion, “Are these two students not here yet?”
“Them? I don’t understand either. I heard they’re locals from Magic City and have recently contracted Rotskin Disease. They’ve been on leave for many days.” Yun Ling’er also entered the dormitory, slithered into her bed like a snake in autumn, and then looked at the school’s special App on her phone, saying excitedly, “Never mind them. Do you think you have a chance to make it into the top ten in a couple of days?”
“Top ten? What top ten?” Su Jiu handed a pajama set to Bairnis, asking her to get ready for a bath, and then asked with some confusion.
“It’s the top ten for the Chief Selection. It’s not like only the first-place chief gets prizes,” Yun Ling’er said with a slight smile. “Everyone in the top ten receives good prizes and credit points from the school. You know, the rewards exchangeable with credit points are even richer than those exchanged with merit points.”
“Then I’ll strive to be the Chief. I heard the school provides a lot of resources.” Su Jiu chuckled in agreement. On her way here, she had already asked Little White via her phone and now had some ideas.
“Chief? If it were before, you might have had a slight chance. But this session has too many monsters. Just naming two famous ones – Crazy Sword Hu Yang and Young Master Lu Bingyu – they are both top geniuses close to High-Rank Battle Generals. If you hadn’t met them, you might have had a chance to barely enter the top ten.” Yun Ling’er rolled her eyes as she watched Su Jiu’s “arrogant” statement about taking the Chief position, saying with a bit of amusement.
“Crazy Sword Hu Yang? I remember the Student Union President also has the surname Hu. There should be some connection between them, right?” Su Jiu muttered the name to herself, raising an eyebrow.
“He is the younger brother of that Chairman Hu. Not only is his bloodline strength extremely high, reaching an astonishing S+, but his cultivation is also extremely rapid. As for the other one, his background is very deep, possibly from a War God family!” Yun Ling’er lightly tapped on her phone to place a bet, pouting with a hint of helplessness. “The odds for these two today have dropped to the bottom. Who cares about the odds of 1.1?”
“How about you bet on me to try?”
Seeing the other person’s expression, Su Jiu felt a mix of amusement and speechlessness. But she secretly noted down what the other person had said and then downloaded the APP on her phone. After looking for a long time, she entered her name:
“Su Jiu’s success rate in the Freshman Chief Selection is 3.1%, odds 1:28.”
Su Jiu blinked at the APP on her phone, as if seeing immense wealth waving at her. Calming herself down slightly, Su Jiu asked in a low voice, “Who is the big bookie for this APP?”
“Hmm, can you make it into the top ten? The odds are around 3, which seems alright… The big bookie is probably a person in charge of the main campus, right? Why are you asking this?” Yun Ling’er was clearly also looking intently at the APP. When Su Jiu asked, she answered instinctively.
“That’s good…”
Upon hearing about the person in charge of the main campus, Su Jiu thought that they probably wouldn’t go bankrupt. She then silently converted her merit points into money. She had about ten million in assets. However, she didn’t rush in immediately. Instead, with a flushed face, she continued to search for her name, but to her regret, the highest odds were still the 28 to 1. But every time she thought about the possibility of “fleecing” a large sum of money, her heart would flutter with excitement, and her face would turn red.
At this moment, Bairnis had come out of the bathroom. Wearing a bath towel, she dried her hair and then got into Su Jiu’s bed. Seeing Su Jiu’s flushed face and remembering that she seemed to like girls… she subtly pulled open her bathrobe. “Miss… do you want it now?” She lay in the inner part of the bed, her body empty, only revealing a small head with a shy, red face looking at Su Jiu. A slight blush appeared on her pointed ears. The book said—if the master wants it, it must be given.
After finishing with her phone, Su Jiu took a shower and instinctively burrowed into the covers. Her hand accidentally touched a warm and soft spot, and her hand remained there… She met Bairnis’s watery eyes and her body stiffened. She swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling that she needed some time to calm down outside.
…
The night was deep and quiet. Faint moonlight spilled down from the sky. The sports field outside the girls’ dormitory building appeared exceptionally tranquil in the moonlight.
“These vampires, none of them are wearing pajamas! How am I supposed to sleep!” Su Jiu was like a drunkard, her face extremely red, her mind filled with how she had accidentally touched Bairnis’s smooth, soft thigh just now, and then accidentally touched… too many things had happened today.
In the quiet night, a black shadow suddenly flashed out. It lightly tapped a tree branch, and it seemed like dark green external qi was being released, but it didn’t make a move. It seemed to be waiting for Su Jiu to make the first move.
“Interesting.” Suddenly looking up, Su Jiu’s eyes narrowed, and she chuckled. The fingernails on the back of her hand emitted a faint blue light. In the next moment, her body disappeared from its original position, leaving only a few afterimages and some gently falling leaves.
Then, on the tree, a dazzling light erupted in mid-air, accompanied by the sound of violent air currents and explosions. After flashing for a few more seconds.
“Bang!”
A figure suddenly fell from mid-air. As the figure tried to get up, a sharp claw pressed against its neck. “Speak! Who sent you?” Su Jiu said calmly, her scarlet eyes shining particularly brightly in the night.
The cloaked figure tore off the mask on its mouth and scratched its head, saying with a rather innocent expression, “It’s not that I know, junior schoolmate. We are members of the Student Union responsible for shifts. To ensure everyone’s safety…”
“You, a mid-level Battle General, are doing this kind of thing?” Su Jiu’s eyelids sank as she saw the other person pull out his identification. She then let him go, thinking helplessly: I’ve really gotten into trouble with this sticky plaster. This is troublesome.
The cloaked figure kept making light of the situation, saying, “It’s just what the organization requested.”
After Su Jiu left, the cloaked figure’s relaxed demeanor vanished, and his face became serious. He made a call to someone named “Chairman,” saying, “I didn’t test her real strength, but she seems to use finger techniques and has a very high cultivation speed. I didn’t use a weapon and failed very quickly.”
“So, it’s highly likely that her attack today, which was so simple, might not have a matching skill… Hu Yang should be able to defeat her easily.” The voice on the other end was slightly silent, and then it chuckled. No one can master many skills, not even geniuses!
