201: You are really good at judging people!
The three of them arrived here and found that all the students were from Central State University and Tianshu University.
After all, the students from both universities were of comparable strength, so it was reasonable for them to be grouped together.
Otherwise, if the gap between them was too large, there would be no value in sparring and learning from each other.
Here, Lin Shu also saw Yu Liyan among them.
His expression was calm, clearly uninterested in the battle scene before him.
It could be said that his strength was the strongest among all the students here, excluding the mentors.
Gu Li and Wu He Tai also nodded at this situation.
Since they were both top universities, it was quite good for the students to exchange experience and combat skills.
Everyone was enthusiastic, cheering for their classmates.
Because the strength of both sides was quite close, the duel became exceptionally interesting.
As for any scornful or mocking scenes, none appeared; not to mention that everyone was a cultured youth, and the mentors standing nearby were not idlers either.
They would not allow such a situation to happen.
The entire scene was within a controllable range, after all, friendship first, competition second.
Under everyone's loud cheers, the battle ended with the Central State University student winning.
Immediately, everyone started chattering, picking their next opponent for a friendly spar.
At this moment, Yu Liyan also spotted Lin Shu, who was mixed in the crowd; several people next to him followed his gaze.
That person opposite seemed a bit familiar.
Then he thought of something and said:
"Is that Lin Shu opposite?"
"He's the one who cleared the Trial Tower."
"Yes, yes, yes, the news of him clearing the Trial Tower topped the charts for quite a while last time."
"Our school offered very generous conditions but still couldn't attract him."
He seemed to add this sentence for fear that everyone wouldn't understand.
Immediately, Tianshu University became lively.
Lin Shu's name still held some memory in their minds.
After all, their university had extended an olive branch to him.
"It's this great god."
"His Talent is indeed terrifying, but after all, the cultivation time is too short, I wonder what his strength is like?"
"We'll know if we find someone to spar with him."
"Yes, yes, it must be very interesting."
Everyone was clearly very interested in Lin Shu's strength progression.
They wanted to see what kind of strength this beast-taming genius possessed now.
Watching the crowd's boisterous behavior.
Yu Liyan saw this and said:
"Lin Shu is very strong; he already has a seventh-tier beast."
His calm words came out, but they instantly ignited the surrounding crowd like flames.
Gasps of cold air rose and fell, continuously, showing how much this news shocked these Tianshu University students.
And since these words came from Yu Liyan, their credibility was very high; why would he lie to them?
"No way! It hasn't been that long."
"Last time I watched his beast duel, wasn't he barely fifth-tier..."
"Absurd, truly absurd, this strength could probably win first place in our freshman seed battle."
"Maybe he is the freshman first place..."
This seed battle was like Central State University's ranking competition, just with a different name.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was clearly startled; he truly deserved to be a genius rarely seen in twenty years, such a rapid improvement seemed quite reasonable... Even Fan Yushu, their seed competition's first place, was greatly shocked.
As the first place, even his beast had only just reached seventh-tier level.
This was even with him, like Zhang Hongyi, only cultivating one main battle beast.
However, the crowd below began to egg them on.
They wanted Fan Yushu to challenge Lin Shu and test his strength.
He was a bit hesitant about this; wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing if he lost?
If he won, he would only be taking advantage of his age, but if he lost, he would truly lose a lot of face, and he wouldn't gain anything.
Why bother getting involved in this messy situation? It was better to stay silent and ignore it.
At this moment, Yu Liyan spoke; he really wanted to see Lin Shu's strength and immediately used his 'money power'.
"Yushu, go challenge Lin Shu."
"I also want to see his strength."
"I won't let you do it for nothing; after you return, you can choose any eighth-tier item, and I'll pay for it."
The moment the words fell, Fan Yushu immediately showed a 'really?' expression.
He's a good judge of character! Brother Yu is truly generous!
With such a benefit, there was no problem at all; even if he lost, it was just a bit of face.
If face could be exchanged for resources, he would be willing to go all-in.
Moreover, he heard that Lin Shu had a support-type Talent, while he was offense-type, which was an advantage for him.
And the opponent's beast was a strong-attack type, while his beast was an iron turtle, which also counted as an advantage, it's just that the opponent had more beasts.
However, the battle hadn't even started, and the final outcome was still unknown; maybe he would win?
"Okay, Brother Yu, I have no problem."
"We can start now."
Fan Yushu spoke very quickly, afraid that the other party would go back on his word.
As expected of a prestigious family, his generosity was evident.
The crowd was also overjoyed at this sight; there was a good show to watch.
This duel should be very exciting.
Immediately, everyone fell silent, allowing the scene to quiet down.
Fan Yushu saw this and knew everyone's thoughts; with Yu Liyan's nod, he directly spoke loudly:
"Hello, Classmate Lin Shu, I am Fan Yushu."
"I'd like to spar with you; I wonder if you're willing."
In his heart, he prayed that the other party would definitely agree.
Otherwise, his eighth-tier item would fly away.
On Central State University's side, Lin Shu, Li Wen, and Chu Yu were chatting about something.
Suddenly, he heard someone calling his name.
At this moment, someone next to him whispered a reminder.
"This Fan Yushu opposite is Tianshu University's freshman seed competition first place."
"He's very strong!"
However, thinking of Lin Shu's performance in the beast tide earlier, he suddenly found it interesting.
The other party was about to suffer greatly.
Indeed, all the classmates from Central State University looked at each other, their expressions a bit strange.
How dare the other party, actually call out Brother Shu by name?
Although they were both freshman first places, the gap between them was visible to the naked eye.
Lin Shu saw this and looked at Fan Yushu.
What responded was his polite, neither humble nor arrogant, smiling face, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Li Wen and Chu Yu held back their laughter; the other party had chosen the wrong opponent.
Although both were first place, Lin Shu's first place was because there was only one first place in the ranking competition, not because his strength could only be first place.
He nudged Lin Shu with his arm.
"Agree to it; a little exercise is good too."
Looking at Li Wen's mischievous smile, it was clear that it wasn't as simple as he said; he probably just wanted to watch the fun.
Even Gu Li and Wu He Tai were like this, thinking it would be good for Lin Shu to show Tianshu University the demeanor of Central State University.
After all, aren't top students meant to be shown off?
But there was expectation in the other party's eyes; he seemed very eager to fight him.
After a slight consideration, Lin Shu still agreed; it was a good chance to let Black Night stretch its body.
"Of course."
Hearing this, Fan Yushu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that he agreed; anyway, their strengths were comparable, and he wouldn't lose too badly.
Then he said cheerfully:
"Thanks, thanks!"
Immediately, everyone stepped back a bit, as the destructive power of high-tier beasts was still quite immense.
A Tianshu University mentor dressed in light grey walked into the center of the field, clearly to act as a referee; he was also very interested in such a duel.
Just like that, Lin Shu and Fan Yushu quickly walked in, facing each other.
Seeing this scene, Gu Li waved his hand, and brilliant light burst forth.
It transformed into translucent white lines, surrounding the battle area, forming a protective shield as thin as silk.
Such a commotion naturally attracted the attention of people from other universities.
They had clearly heard the discussion about Lin Shu.
The title of 'Trial Tower clea rer' was still very prominent, attracting everyone's curiosity.
Fan Yushu was the same; the other party was a freshman first place.
Such a focal battle was not to be missed.
For a time, the area was crowded with spectators, three rings deep inside and three rings outside.
Some who felt their view was poor even flew into the air, striving to see more clearly...
