Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 157: Chapter 139: My People

The throne challenge tournament has concluded perfectly.

For the people of Guanglin, it was an event even more exciting than Awakening Day.

The bizarre Demon Spirits, mysterious and powerful gifted skills, the Bloodline Race, the legacy of Secret Skills blossomed together, creating a dazzling visual feast.

The freshmen who occupied the top ten seats had their refined Demon Spirits, the innate abilities of those spirits, their future development directions, combat professions, and even the combination of Demon Spirit Skills all become hot topics of discussion.

This topic and its heat will last for a while; everyone is used to it, but this year seems a bit special because the stir is indeed enormous.

Since the founding of the throne challenge tournament by Red Cloud University, there have been dozens of editions, but none have ever brought such a sensational effect.

On mobile phones and TVs, and even walking down the street, looking up at the light curtain on the skyscrapers, aside from advertisements, without exception, the highlights of this throne challenge tournament are being played.

Lin Feng, Yun Kai, Bai Ji, Dong Yunan, Ye Ming..... have become new stars known to every household in Guanglin.

Not just in Guanglin, the same goes for Jiang City.

Lin Feng and Yun Kai are both from Jiang City, and the only pity is that Jiang City’s foundation isn’t strong enough, with only one of the Nine Elite Joint Schools, lacking a Hero Academy.

Red Cloud University.

The arrival of over ten thousand freshmen has added a youthful energy to the campus life that originally only had cultivation and battles.

Today, many seniors and elder classmates rarely abstain from cultivating or fighting in the Otherworld, instead leisurely roaming around the campus.

Looking at the naïve faces passing by, the innocent laughter, their gazes are a bit complex, seemingly recalling something, then softly cursing: ”A bunch of newbies.”

Thinking back two or three years ago, they were equally immature, also referred to as newbies by others. But in just a few short years, although they are still teenagers, their hands have become stained with blood.

At this moment, their mentality has completely changed, unable to be as innocent and happy as before.

And in some open view spots, along the path to the girls’ dormitory, groups of boys gather together, their eyes constantly scanning, occasionally emitting indescribable strange laughter.

”Hehe, this one’s skin is so white, tender like water, feels like you could pinch water out of it.”

”Wow, those long legs, they’re my type. Just those legs, I could have fun for a year.”

”Is it because those legs are long, but you’re just 1.6 meters tall, a perfect match.”

”Say one more thing and I’ll finish you off. You can insult my looks, but don’t mock my height.”

”That bust is big, might already be possessed by a Demon Spirit, refined a cow, hehe!”

”Damn, Ale, could you not be so obscene, sticking your tongue out like some pervert, don’t scare my innocent and lovely younger sister.”

”Let’s keep our distance from him, Ale’s Demon Spirit is about to evolve, he’s been consuming Fire Lion’s blood daily to absorb the second Soul Skill for so long it’s made him emanate a faint fishy smell, he’s suppressed it for too long. I bunk above him, and sometimes at night his gaze frightens me, stopping me from daring to sleep without clothes.”

”You idiot, look at yourself, with that big pancake face and a body full of black hair, I wouldn’t even touch myself, but lately, drinking too much lion blood, indeed, my frustration has increased; I ate ten pears this year and still have mouth sores, acne is showing up affecting my handsome face; desires increased a bit, but it’s not as exaggerated as you all say.”

”Ale, can you wipe the saliva off your mouth before you say it’s not exaggerated.”

....

The arrival of freshmen has revitalized Red Cloud University with vigor and vibrancy.

Aside from some seniors bustling around various intersections, waiting for their targets like predators, many others are holding pamphlets, continuously handing them to freshmen, quickly explaining to interested newcomers.

Opening season is also the most crucial recruitment activity for societies throughout the year.

This recruitment activity began with preparation by various societies even before the freshmen arrived.

Obviously, strength and talent are performances of value measurement.

Freshmen with seats in the throne challenge tournament naturally become key targets for societies striving to recruit. To contest these exceptionally talented freshmen, societies have spared no effort, offering benefits and promises.

Occasionally, you can see handsome seniors helping younger sisters with things, offering warm instructions, and attractive older sisters with large eyes asking softly to the slightly shy younger brothers: ”Join, will you? Will you?”

In such sweet words, some immature freshmen join hastily without understanding the society’s background and strength.

Various student societies are intensely conducting their recruitment, competing for freshmen.

And as the student society responsible for overall student management, even having the authority to partake in school rules formulation and high-level decisions, the student council doesn’t dispatch anyone for recruitment, appearing much more arrogant.

But given the status of the student council, this is indeed unnecessary.

The student council owns independent offices located at Red Cloud’s central area, a three-story building covering thirty mu.

Even without sending people for recruitment, over a thousand students are queued, applying to join.

Everyone knows that qualifying for the student council has high requirements, but the benefits are abundant. Therefore, the freshmen confident enough to queue generally far exceed others in strength and talent, including some faces with seats from the throne challenge tournament.
