Chapter 82 The Changing of the Guard
In a good mood, Hua Yu even found the two familiar faces more pleasing to the eye and couldn't help but greet them.
"Hey, rain or shine, it's you two again."
"Hehe." The dark-faced senior gave a perfunctory smile, not even wanting to acknowledge Hua Yu.
Another seemingly kind senior student said with a smile, "Excuse me, you made a slip of the tongue just now."
"where?"
"You've broken through to the intermediate level, not the advanced level. Look how happy you are. You can't believe you're wrong about that." Senior Brother He Shan patted Hua Yu on the shoulder and reminded him.
Hearing this, Hua Yu looked at him with a smile but didn't say anything.
Sensing that something was off, the kind-hearted senior's expression stiffened, and he tentatively asked, "Um, it's not like you really have broken through to the advanced level, is it?"
Hua Yu nodded and laughed, "I come to the Three-Step Tower every now and then. If I don't break through, what's the difference between me and a piece of trash?"
"Pfft~"
The two senior students on duty coughed up a mouthful of blood.
This is fucking devastating!
Do you come here whenever you have nothing to do?
You know that yourself, right? Who are you trying to make envious to death?
If you can't break through, you're just a piece of trash?
We strongly suspect that you are insulting people!

After leaving the two stunned senior students, Hua Yu returned to the villa.
The huge villa remains empty today.
For more than a month, Mu Nujiao kept trying to climb the rankings.
Her goal was to get into the top twenty in the Department of Plant Sciences.
However, Hua Yu calculated the time and realized that Mu Nujiao had no chance of reaching that point, so she would ultimately miss out on this year's nomination competition.
There is no such thing as absolute fairness in this world!
Those who made the list in each department of Mingzhu Academy were all students from previous years.
Having trained for several more years, they already have an advantage over this year's freshmen.
But the reality is that the National Team doesn't look at your talent, only your ability.
Even if you reach the intermediate level at the age of ten, it won't matter; you still won't be selected to participate, and you'll only be made to wait until the next competition.
While meeting the age requirement for competition, ability is the most important factor in entering the National Team.
However, there were two exceptions.
One of them is the number one in the Summoning category.
The other one is Mo Fan, who is about to challenge the tenth place in the Fire Academy.
During Hua Yu's period of seclusion and cultivation, Mo Fan did not rest either. According to Zhao Manyan, this guy led a group of people to the Great Northwest.
Since his last defeat to Bai Yimo, Mo Fan has clearly realized his own lack of strength.
Although he could dominate among his peers, there was still a gap between him and the strongest students from previous years in the academy. So he went to find someone to make armor and magical tools, and also searched for his own contracted beast.
After searching for a while, Mo Fan and his companions found the Fire Princess, the darling of fire, in the northern corner of the Scorching Plains in Northwest China.
After overcoming numerous obstacles and resolving a long-standing issue, Mo Fan successfully signed a contract with the newborn Flame Princess from the Flame Witch's hands.
With his armor and magical artifacts in hand, and his contracted beast ready, Mo Fan challenged Ding Yumin, the tenth-ranked student in the Fire Academy.
Hua Yu wasn't planning to watch the match, but after thinking about it, he still sent Ding Yumin a message.
The reply came in less than five seconds after the message was sent.
"I will do my best!"
Hua Yu smiled, put his phone aside, and began feeding the winged silver lion.
I stayed home for two more days.
"Ding-dong~"
A doorbell rang, causing Hua Yu, who was meditating in the living room, to slowly open his eyes.
鏉ヤ 钖楋纻
When the door opened, a man with the logo of SF Express printed on his chest stood there.
"Hello, this is SF Express. Please be ready to sign for your package."
Hua Yu nodded and took the small box from his hand.
Although he appeared calm on the surface, he was actually overjoyed inside.
As soon as the deliveryman left, Hua Yu couldn't wait to open the box, and a very familiar small silver stone appeared before his eyes.
The silver stone is also adorned with many eye-catching patterns that resemble swirling nebulae.
This is the precious thing that money can't buy—the Nian Stone.
"Hua Yu, come on, let's go watch the game together."
Just then, Ai Tutu, wearing a JK mini skirt, came down from upstairs.
This girl seems to love this kind of short skirt all year round.
The only difference is that she goes bare-legged in summer and wears stockings in winter.
Behind her, Mu Nujiao wore a well-fitting pale yellow dress. The off-the-shoulder design of the dress completely exposed her slender neck, making her look like a noble white swan.
"No, you guys go."
Hua Yu flashed past Ai Tutu and landed on Mu Nujiao without any attempt to conceal it.
Seeing this, Ai Tutu pouted. She and Sister Mu had both dressed up carefully, so why did Hua Yu only glance at her before jumping over and then not blinking when she landed on Sister Mu?
Is there anything about me that makes me smaller than her?
Oh right, young.
The more Ai Tutu thought about it, the angrier she became, and she stomped on Hua Yu's foot in dissatisfaction.
"What are you doing? Ouch!"
"Look, look, their eyes are practically popping out of their sockets to look at Sister Mu."
Upon hearing this, Mu Nujiao blushed and quickly pulled Ai Tutu to her side, scolding, "Tutu, don't talk nonsense."
She had just noticed Hua Yu's gaze, but she had managed to maintain her composure and walk steadily down the stairs. However, after Ai Tutu said that, she lost her composure in a second.
Ai Tutu pouted and muttered under her breath, "It's clearly the truth, but they won't let people say it."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yu and Mu Nujiao exchanged a glance and smiled at each other.
"Aren't you going to watch your roommate Mo Fan's game?" Mu Nujiao asked.
"That was my former roommate. My current roommates are the two of you."
Today is the day Mo Fan and Ding Yumin will face off.
On one side is the powerful and rising Mingzhu Demon Lord, and on the other side is the veteran powerhouse of the Fire Academy.
This is a battle between the old and the new.
It immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The freshmen are showing their enthusiastic support for Mo Fan, who once left a deep impression on them.
The senior students were divided into two groups: those with average strength watched the show as normal, just to join in the fun, while none of the top-ranked experts from each department were absent.
It would be good if Mo Fan lost this match, but if he had won, it would have meant that the old and new generations would have started to change!
Everyone who has reached this position has experienced something like this.
Every year, there is a leader who breaks the dominance of senior students over freshmen.
Once that one person appears, others will spring up like mushrooms after rain, one after another.
Hua Yu ultimately kept a low profile, or perhaps the Summoning Department kept a low profile; it was just an internal ranking, unlike the Elemental Department which was a large and prestigious department.
Otherwise, they would have discovered long ago that the leader had already appeared!
