Chapter 202 My Era
Bei Bei shook her head and said, "It's useless. Even if you go to discuss it with them, they won't agree. This time it's an unexpected event. Whether we fight or not, tomorrow is destined to be a difficult problem with no choice. Yuhao, what are you going to choose?"

Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly and said, “On one side is the academy, and on the other side is the Tang Sect. I don’t know what to do.”

Yes, on one side is the Tang Sect that carried his hopes and gave him a new life, and on the other side is the academy that brought him up.

This is a difficult question to decide, and Beibei doesn’t know how to choose if he really has to make a choice.

In his mind, there was only one choice, to gather everyone and give the right to choose to the team members.

Soon, all the team members gathered in the conference room of Mingyue Hotel.

Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao briefly introduced the results of the draw and analyzed the current situation.

"That's roughly what happened. As for what choice to make, I'd like to hear your opinions."

Beibei sat in the first seat and asked for everyone's opinions. This situation was really bad. Who could have expected that they would meet the Shrek team during the draw.

“Big Brother, what should we do? Should we fight or not?” He Cai Tou looked at Bei Bei and Huo Yuhao helplessly.

Jiang Nannan frowned and wanted to say something but in the end all she could do was sigh.

This is a dilemma, or in other words...

It’s an unsolvable choice!

One of the two must be sacrificed!
silence……

A long silence followed...

"Let's vote." Finally, Tang Ya seemed to have made up her mind. She looked at the embarrassed Bei Bei and everyone else and made this decision.

The final result of the anonymous vote was that all seven chose to admit defeat.

"In that case, then I'll respect your opinions." Tang Ya was not surprised, as she knew the interests involved.

If we choose to continue fighting with Shrek, then even if we win, it will be a miserable defeat, and both sides will suffer losses.

It is even very likely that because of the mutual losses this time, neither the academy nor the Tang Sect will be able to achieve good results. This is a strategic abandonment. At the same time, there will be a round-robin tournament and a loser's revival tournament later.

With their strength, there is no need to worry about anything. After all, they are also Shrek's elite.

After this discussion, Beibei subsequently proposed to admit defeat to the organizing committee of the competition and gave up the opportunity to qualify.

Zhang Lexuan was not surprised by this result, but she was very curious about one thing: if Su Yu was leading the team this time, what choice would he make.

Is it to fight or not to fight?

If he fights, what decision will Su Yu make after he agrees?
"You said that Tangmen chose to give up the competition with Shrek?" Xiao Hongchen was somewhat moved when he heard the news announced by the organizing committee.

In fact, he hoped that Shrek and Tangmen would fight to a draw, which would greatly increase their chances of winning the championship.

Meng Hongchen replied, "This is to be expected. After all, the Tang Sect's team is from the previous session. Although Su Yu is gone, they will understand such a simple truth. Brother, how confident are you that you can beat the Tang Sect team? Grandpa said that you seem to be quite confident."

Xiao Hongchen stroked his chin and said with a smile, "To be precise, it's not much, only 60%. If Su Yu participates in the competition, I think our chances of winning this time are only about 40%. Of course, if Su Yu doesn't participate, our chances of winning will naturally increase a lot. However, Huo Yuhao should not be underestimated. According to our information, he is not only a disciple of Moon En, but also a disciple of the leader of the Body Sect, Du Bu Si!"

“Doesn’t that mean that if we encounter the Shrek Seven Devils, no, should we say the Tang Sect’s team, wouldn’t it be difficult for us to defeat them?” Meng Hongchen’s eyes were a little dim.

Xiao Hongchen murmured to himself, "That's not true, actually. If their team didn't have any new martial soul fusion skills, I think we would definitely win the championship this time."

"Brother, you are still unsure when you say that. The focus of this battle is not on us, so there is no point in you being anxious. With Luoyu here, I believe that if we go all out, we will definitely win in the end! Brother, compared to Luoyu, you are so far behind. In terms of strength, you are not as good as Luoyu and Suyu, and in terms of command, you are still not as good as Suyu and Luoyu. Brother, aren't you ashamed..."

As he spoke, Meng Hongchen sighed with regret. Luo Yu and Su Yu were like two mountains pressing down on Xiao Hongchen's heart.

This is a hurdle that Xiao Hongchen cannot overcome. Although he is regarded as the hall master's disciple, among his peers, he, Meng Hongchen, can be regarded as a well-deserved genius.

But he suffered huge blows one after another. Su Yu's efforts to turn the tide in the last competition finally shattered their dream of winning the championship in the last step!
In Mingde Hall, he met a junior who had made great achievements in fighting talent. Later, he was accepted as a disciple by his grandfather Jing Hongchen, and then he followed the students of the previous class to learn their fighting methods. Just when Xiao Hongchen thought that he was only talented in fighting and could become a regular player in the next competition, Luo Yu showed his powerful soul guide talent.

In just four years, he has grown from a fourth-level soul engineer to a seventh-level soul engineer. If it were not for the limitation of his soul power, Luo Yu would have the potential to become a quasi-eighth-level soul engineer, and the youngest eighth-level soul engineer in the history of the Sun Moon Empire!

This is Xiao Hongchen’s tragic struggle history, a painful struggle history in which he encountered geniuses one after another!

"Can't you hope for something good? Even without Luo Yu, we can still win the championship. You know the actual situation of the other teams. What's more, hum..." Xiao Hongchen sneered.

Meng Hongchen continued, "You have made a breakthrough, but if you still don't have confidence, then you really won't even have a chance to catch up with them. Sigh..."

The brother and sister looked towards the place where the Tang Sect was, each with their own thoughts in their hearts. "How long will it take before I can see you again?" Xiao Hongchen muttered to himself.

"Wang Dong, we will meet..." Meng Hongchen's eyes were full of anticipation, looking forward to the day that would come...

Wanjing Sect.

"Teacher Xuan, have you made any progress in your research on Number One?" Su Yu asked while sitting in front of Xuan Ziwen, who looked haggard.

Xuan Ziwen shook his head and said, "Although I also hope to make some progress, it is not enough to rely on the strength of us alone. Even if there is progress, it will be limited. All I can do is to solve the operational problems of Ending Number One as much as possible. I thought it would not be too difficult to solve these problems, but I overestimated myself. It is the pinnacle of thousands of years of soul guidance in the Sun-Moon Empire, and it is the hard work of countless soul guides in the Sun-Moon Empire. If I can perfect it, I will definitely open a new era of soul guidance! However, it is too difficult. Even if I am given another ten years, I can't do it. The history of one person is too meager..."

The drafts scattered on the ground and Xuan Ziwen's confident but haggard look told Su Yu the answer.

Indeed, although No. 1's experiment has made some progress, it is still too difficult for Xuan Ziwen to handle it alone. The other soul guides are completely unable to understand No. 1's soul guide formation.

Mingde Hall gathers all the top soul guides of the Sun-Moon Empire, and also gathers the highest soul guide technology of the Sun-Moon Empire, so the research on No. 2 can make rapid progress.

"It's okay, Teacher Xuan, we are not in a hurry, there is still plenty of time. If necessary in the future, I think we may cooperate with the hall master." Su Yu did not care about Xuan Ziwen's research progress, because even in the Sun and Moon Empire, Luo Yu's research was full of difficulties. Many times, even if you know the future development and let it go, you cannot find a suitable path.

Because at the moment you are simply unable to break through the current stage. Before you break through the current stage, you can only maintain the status quo.

Every person who creates a new era has a slight chance of success only if he or she has accumulated countless experiences from his or her predecessors, plus talent, inspiration, luck and hard work!
"Su Yu, what do you think? If we let more people get involved, divide the No. 1 experiment body into countless small parts, and then assign them to different experimental subjects, do you think it is possible to solve the problem? Although it may not be useful, all I need is a brand new idea and thought. If someone can come up with it, then my research will definitely go further. If possible, in ten years at most, not five years, I can let No. 1 officially enter the actual combat experiment!"

Xuan Ziwen looked at Su Yu, his eyes full of hope, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"Teacher Xuan, I'm afraid this plan won't work..."

Su Yu held his forehead with one hand and couldn't help but sigh.

Judging from the current situation, unless Su Yu's soul guidance level exceeds level eight and reaches level nine, there is no way to make any substantial progress on experimental subject No. 1.

"Then I'd better put aside the research on number one for the time being. It seems that it's too much for me to handle it alone..."

Looking at Xuan Ziwen's helpless look, Su Yu was also in pain, because he was still struggling hard, because a group of people on No. 2's side were also busy and exhausted.

Xuan Ziwen is not the only one suffering. In fact, to put it another way, the one suffering the most is Jing Hongchen.

A few years ago, Mingdetang was ambushed by the Body Sect, and Su Yu took advantage of the situation to steal the No. 1 and Xue Di embryos. If Xu Tianran had not chosen to cooperate with Jing Hongchen, Jing Hongchen would have lost more, and it would not be as simple as just being scolded.

At this critical juncture, Jing Hongchen was really worried that something unexpected would happen to No. 2. After all, he had learned the lesson from the last time. If something happened again this time, his good days would be over.

"Teacher Xuan, make some preparations. I will move to the Wanjing Sect in a while and start recruiting disciples. I will try to recruit mainly soul mentors. My plan for the future is actually very simple, that is to cooperate with the hall master. We are indeed not as good as the hall master in terms of foundation, but we have achievements in other fields that are ahead of the world, and we want to make these achievements also be used in war."

Su Yu tidied up Xuan Ziwen's messy manuscript, then sat on the chair and thought about his plans.

Xuan Ziwen looked at Su Yu and felt that Su Yu seemed to have different plans. From the initial plot against him to the feat of stealing No. 1, Xuan Ziwen could guess what Su Yu was up to. "Are you planning to build a huge sect that is like a miniature of Shrek and Mingde Hall?"

Su Yu nodded. This was indeed his plan. "That's about right. But for now, we can only keep a low profile. It's not the time for us to show our strength yet. After all, I don't have the strength to defeat a Titled Douluo yet."

Hearing this, Xuan Ziwen was shocked. Defeating a Titled Douluo?

Su Yu is now at most a Soul Sage. Xuan Ziwen estimates that it will take several more years for Su Yu to defeat a Titled Douluo. Even Moon, who was famous in the Douluo Continent back then, didn't become a Titled Douluo until he was in his twenties, right?

"So when do you plan to unseal the Wanjing Sect? Even though you cut off the connection between the Wanjing Sect and the outside world at that time, from the current situation, the Wanjing Sect does not seem to be exposed. Moreover, when the Wanjing Sect appears, it will be at most a small sect with rich heritage. It seems that your plan is not based on the strength of the sect, but rather on using the sect to accomplish a bigger plan?" Xuan Ziwen simply summarized the current situation.

Su Yu laughed and said, "Teacher Xuan is also a smart man. If there is a war between the Sun Moon Empire and the three major empires in the future, what will be the situation of the Wanjing Sect?"

"What do you mean?" Xuan Ziwen hesitated for a moment and then asked.

"If the Wanjing Sect was only established in the Xingluo Empire, then when the Sun-Moon Empire went to war with the three major empires, our roommate Bajiu would be invited to discuss many matters concerning the sect's expedition. After all, the current emperor of the Xingluo Empire was once from a sect, so he naturally understands the sect's rules. But my idea is very simple. That is..."

At this point, Su Yu paused, as if he had thought of something, and asked, "Teacher Xuan, ten thousand years ago, before the Sun and Moon Continent drifted here and merged into the Douluo Continent, there was a huge sect in the Douluo Continent. Do you know what it was called?"

Xuan Ziwen's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise, "Are you talking about the huge sect, the Spirit Hall, which was once justifiably wiped out by the three empires and eventually died in the hands of God?"

"Yes, I am talking about the Spirit Hall, and my idea is to build a Spirit Hall of my own!"

Yes, this is what I have always thought. When the three empires and the Sun-Moon Empire fight against each other in the future, it will be the time for Luo Yu and I to achieve each other.

The future will be exciting, because it will be my era!
　Debt-ridden series.

　　I'll try to update. OK, adjourn the meeting...
