Chapter 110: Scramble

After the interview.

Shen Fei and Su Muyu leaned back on the sofa.

"The interview was so tiring. And the way you spoke was so official, hahaha."

Su Muyu loosened the tie around her neck and laughed.

Shen Fei let out a breath, "How else could I say it? Awakening a profession is really a matter of luck, and talents are even rarer. That’s just how this era is."

"With good talent, both the upper and lower limits are higher than others; you can only do your best with the cards you’re dealt."

"Exactly."

Su Muyu nodded in agreement with Shen Fei’s assessment.

"But it’s kind of nice, just the time spent interviewing earned me a set of rare Tier Three Warlock equipment and two Lord Level skills." Su Muyu’s eyes curved with delight.

Though the Su Family is wealthy, earning things on her own merit felt different.

"When you reach Tier Three, it will be perfect for transitioning." Shen Fei nodded, acknowledging Shencheng City’s generosity towards Su Muyu’s reward—a set of rare Tier Three Warlock equipment.

A direct six-piece set, which is more useful than scattered Lord’s Equipment.

And also two Lord Level skills.

Shen Fei received a set of rare Tier Three Summoner equipment, even a set of Tier Three Lord Level equipment that even Shencheng City couldn’t offer, which Shen Fei naturally refused.

Because Han Min had sent a message to him earlier in the morning.

To choose a set of Lord Level Summoner equipment.

"Governor Han gave me the rewards from the South China Area, so I exchanged Shencheng City’s reward for four Lord Level Summoned Beast Skill Books."

"Mm-hmm, he also sent them to me. He mentioned it’s an Epic Skill Book at Tier Three, or half a set of Lord Level equipment; I chose the Epic Skill Book."

Shen Fei nodded, Epic Skills are quite valuable.

"Master, the meal is ready."

The voice of the Plague Doctor came from the kitchen, Shen Fei got up and exhaled, "Great!"

After lunch.

Su Muyu went back to studying, her newly learned Epic Skill called [Demon Realm], was considered an area support.

Once deployed, within a certain range, her professional skills would receive a terrifying boost, according to Su Muyu’s calculations, it could amplify the power of all her skills by at least five times.

While reducing consumption by thirty percent.

This is the terror of Epic Skills, while Shen Fei’s Substitute Death Transfer, offers multiple lives.

"And there’s this... Oh right, Muyu. What do you think about me gifting a Tier Four Epic Equipment to Uncle Su tomorrow?"

Shen Fei recalled the equipment and skill books he acquired after killing the Black Beetle King.

Since the Empress dealt the final blow, all that was dropped were Epic Items.

The three Epic Items remained in Shen Fei’s professional backpack.

This is the terror of [Rolling Wealth].

Two Epic Skill Books, and one Epic Equipment.

And ’Black King Insect Armor’ is the Epic Equipment, as for the other two skill books, Shen Fei planned for the Vast Heaven Venerable to consume them, one of which is tank-oriented, the other general purpose.

But both are for Professionals.

He’s not planning to sell them, Epic items can greatly enhance combat power, selling without receiving equal value would be wasteful.

The key is that these two skills require level 40 to learn, exchanging them might be pointless by then.

Better to have the Vast Heaven Venerable directly use [Heaven-Devouring Demon Technique] to consume them, and learn two powerful skills.

Why not gift them to Su Juncheng, the Su Family is a Warlock Clan, the whole family are Warlocks.

Sending them over would still be a swap.

And given Su Family’s Patriarch position, they shouldn’t be lacking Epic Skills.

However, equipment is different; it can be a gift.

After all, equipment can be transferred and used until it’s swapped out.

Unlike skill books, which once used are gone.

"No need. Brother Shen Fei should keep it, or maybe exchange it later; giving it to Su Juncheng is a loss." Su Muyu shook her head rapidly, giving it to Su Juncheng...

In her view.

She and Shen Fei are family, and it’s a Tier Four Epic Equipment worth billions, just giving it away like that?

Her future husband is so wasteful?

"For Uncle Su... Okay, I’ll listen to you."

Shen Fei wanted to say something but chose not to, as there’s still some unresolved tension between the father and daughter, forcing things could be counterproductive.

Given Su Muyu’s personality.

Even if Su Muyu might put on a front for him, her heart would likely resist.

Thus leading to counterproductive outcomes, sparking rebellion in Su Muyu.

The rest of the time, they ate, and Su Muyu continued studying, until the afternoon when Shen Fei and Su Muyu’s phones rang simultaneously, Shen Fei glanced at his phone.

"Hmm? From Chang’an."

Shen Fei answered the call, "Mr. Shen, I’m Director Xuu of Chang’an University’s Admissions Office. Are you available right now?"

"Director Xuu? Yes, I am."

"I’m right outside, if it’s convenient, shall we chat?"

"Outside?"

Shen Fei looked at Su Muyu, Su Muyu also hung up her call and whispered, "It’s from Coastal, saying they’re outside now."

"They both came?"

"Don’t they know we’re heading to Imperial University?"

"Probably wanting to make an attempt? Although other universities aren’t as overall strong as Imperial University, they have their specializations." Shen Fei pondered, faintly hearing commotion outside.

"Let’s go out. Just finished the interview and they’re already here, they must have known the timing well."

Shen Fei opened the door, only to see outside crowded with people; their courtyard was nearly full, even the community property manager was there, sweating and saying something. Upon seeing Shen Fei appear, he apologized quickly, "I’m sorry, resident. These people have special status, hard to stop them..."

"It’s fine."

Shen Fei gestured, leading to numerous microphones and cameras targeting him and Su Muyu, chaotic noises erupted.

"Mr. Shen, are you considering Chang’an University? According to credible sources, Bai Qingzhao and Wuu Yuan have confirmed their enrollment at Chang’an University; will you also go to Chang’an to establish a South China System there?"

"As the top university in the South China Area, does Coastal University entice you to stay and contribute to South China?"

"And then..."

...

At the next moment, the Empress appeared beside him, speaking coldly, "Everyone, be quiet!"

Her aura spread out, instantly stopping the noisy commotion, her icy and domineering presence suppressing the crowd.

Shen Fei’s view turned to those in special attire, marked on the left chest, appearing strong and professional.

"Hello, Mr. Shen, I’m Xuu Wu..."

A big man approached, dressed in Breaking Abyss military uniform, with many medals on his shoulders, he squeezed past others to greet Shen Fei with a smile.

"Hello, Director Xuu."

"Call me Old Brother." Xuu Wu chuckled heartily, beside him, a stunning, shapely woman spoke softly, "Old Brother? Aren’t you taking advantage of Mr. Shen? Xuu Wu, you’re way older."

"Since when did Chang’an start snatching top scorers? Didn’t you often say top scorers barely meet your standards?"

"Previous times were different from now..."

These individuals in special uniforms, though just starting, held an underlying tension, while surrounding reporters begrudgingly continued to write furiously.

This was indeed big news!

"Top universities vying for talent; where will the divine couple end up!"

"Chang’an dismisses top scorers? But Shen Fei is an exception!"
