Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 1922 - 2018: Unexpected (First Update)

Just when the atmosphere was extremely tense, suddenly, an old voice rippled out: "He represents the You Family, joining the arena battle is allowed."

Just those few words.

Simply put.

Yet, after the voice rippled out, Feng Chong, Wu He, Wei Yu, and the others, who originally had faces full of ridicule, disdain, and sneers, suddenly quivered, their pupils contracted, and their eyes trembled, just feeling as if their ears were hallucinating, wanting to speak but hesitating, unwilling yet not daring to question.

For a moment, the atmosphere became very strange and very quiet.

"Su Chen, you... do you know Elder Yun?" You You suddenly raised her head, looking towards Su Chen. Under the veil, her beautiful and pure face was filled with surprise and disbelief, her beautiful eyes flickering with brilliant light.

"Elder Yun? I don’t know him." Su Chen shook his head, but inside, there was a strong shock.

Around him, there was actually someone? Elder Yun? This elder was just around them just now, yet he hadn’t noticed at all, not even a slightest awareness.

It’s really hard to imagine, with his current strength of Divine Soul, he couldn’t even detect a martial cultivator approaching nearby. Just how powerful was the other party?

"How could it be possible? If you don’t know Elder Yun, Elder Yun definitely wouldn’t have spoken for you. Elder Yun’s personality has always been that..." You You didn’t believe it and dared not to speak it out specifically.

What she wanted to say was that Elder Yun’s personality was extremely eccentric and had an incredibly high status. It was almost unheard of for him to speak for any young person, yet he just spoke for Su Chen, which was truly unbelievable.

"I really don’t know him." Su Chen still shook his head: "What’s the background of this Elder Yun?"

Su Chen was interested in this Elder Yun.

"It’s said that Elder Yun is from the Imperial Academy. As for what his exact identity is in the academy, I am not clear." You You lowered her voice: "Elder Yun came this time to select State Sons. Among us, apart from you, all are State Sons. But not all State Sons are eligible to participate in the Son of the Emperor selection. After all, the Imperial Academy selects only a few Sons of the Emperor every few centuries, even millennia, and the quotas are very, very few. But for State Sons, there are many, just in one State Yuan, there are ninety-nine State Sons. Plus the other Six States, a total of nearly six hundred State Sons. Only about several dozen of these six hundred State Sons are eligible to participate in the Son of the Emperor selection." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Su Chen nodded, somewhat understood, just like how Domain Sons get promoted to State Sons, only some Domain Sons are qualified to participate in the State Son promotion tournament.

But, Domain Sons earn the qualification for the State Son promotion tournament through points.

While State Sons earn the qualification for the Son of the Emperor promotion tournament through direct selection by terrifying beings like Elder Yun from the Imperial Academy.

"From the Imperial Academy?" Su Chen muttered to himself, unable to resist thinking of someone, yes, someone with good fortune, Ke Wuxin.

"Elder Yun never interferes with any of our State Sons’ affairs, whether it’s fights, arena battles, exploring secret realms, etc., he never interferes. He just seems to watch us secretly." You You continued: "This time’s arena battle is an important one, if any of us performs well, it would be a positive impression in Elder Yun’s mind."

Just then.

"Young Master Su, welcome to the arena battle, and to be teammates with goddess You You, I’m so envious." A moment later, a somewhat playful voice broke all the silence and awkwardness.

The source of the voice was Gao Yi.

The fat one.

Yes, the wealthy fat one.

Gao Yi’s small beady eyes were fixed on Su Chen, his chubby face clearly showing a friendly expression.

"This fat one is quite thick-skinned, with a top-class ability to go with the flow." You You snorted.

"Interesting." Su Chen glanced at Gao Yi. In fact, he had noticed Gao Yi before.

Because this person was one of the few mentioned by You You, and the others like Feng Chong, Wei Yu, Wu He all showed strong hostility and ridicule towards him.

But Gao Yi, how to say, previously Su Chen could feel that Gao Yi also looked down on him playfully, but didn’t express it openly. Among these five or six dozen State Sons martial cultivators present, Gao Yi was relatively the most friendly.

And now, with Elder Yun speaking up, he immediately shamelessly expressed goodwill, this kind of personality makes people somewhat wary, clearly very deep-minded.

Su Chen doesn’t mind deep-minded people, at least, smart people are better than fearless idiots like Feng Chong and Wei Yu, aren’t they?

Su Chen, when making friends now, is not afraid of the other party being too smart, but afraid of them being too foolish.

"Thank you." Unconsciously, Su Chen said with a smile.

Immediately, a glint of light flashed in Gao Yi’s tiny eyes.

Su Chen actually accepted his goodwill.

Somewhat unexpected for him.

"Hmph! Gao Yi, you really are going backward!" Feng Chong snorted unhappily, glanced at Gao Yi, then his face slightly gloomy, stared at Su Chen: "Since joining the arena battle, then it’s a real fight!!! Once on the arena, there’s no such thing as immediately conceding!"

In the depths of Feng Chong’s eyes, there was a chilling coldness.

Elder Yun had spoken, he couldn’t refute.

He could only watch helplessly as an annoying ant joined the arena battle, but thinking carefully, it’s not without benefits, at least by the time the arena battle comes, there will be a chance to teach this unaware ant a lesson, right?

"Enough talk, let’s start the arena battle now. I’m quite impatient for that Yanlei Ancient Fruit." Gao Yi said with a smile, completely indifferent to Feng Chong’s discontent.

"Then let’s begin." Wei Yu said with a cold smile, a slightly cruel smile on his sinister face, casting a cold glance at Su Chen and You You.

"The usual rules, we have a total of twelve forces. Each force sends people for eight rounds of battle. Win a round: 3 points, Tie a round: 1 point, Lose a round: 0 points. Finally, after eight rounds, we’ll calculate the total points. The one in first place takes all." Feng Chong shouted loudly.

Everyone was informed in advance and nodded heavily.

"As for the opponents in each round, it’ll be decided by drawing lots." Feng Chong continued.

As soon as Feng Chong said ’decided by drawing lots’, You You’s expression turned a bit sour: "It’s this routine again."

"What’s wrong?" Su Chen asked.

Before You You could respond, You Tu said: "Feng Chong, Wei Yu, and Wu He usually conspire and then cheat during the draw."

"Cheat?" Su Chen was a bit surprised: "Won’t it be discovered? Isn’t Elder Yun watching around?"

"Elder Yun doesn’t care about these things. He never interferes with what we State Sons do, whether it’s fair or not. To him, he can see through each State Son’s strength and talent with one glance, so cheating or not is nothing more than a blinding technique to him, naturally, he can’t be bothered to control it." You You said somewhat helplessly: "The most crucial thing is, I clearly know they are cheating, but just can’t find out how they’re doing it?"
