Chapter 226 - 79: One Man Is Enough

Shen Fei happened to step in to mediate, "After all, this is a Tier Seven potion, it’s still a bit challenging."

Next to him, Su Muyu’s face was already red with embarrassment, and her small hand had pinched Shen Fei’s waist in a direct one-hundred-eighty-degree twist.

The pain in his waist made Shen Fei bare his teeth.

"Let’s count our spoils. We might need to head to the Corpse Stiff Abyss sometime soon..."

Shen Fei looked at the golden item before him, a Sparrow Phoenix Feather, and a golden equipment piece, Black Phoenix’s Tears.

There were also two Epic Skill Books, one for a Mage called Black Fog Array and one for a Warrior called Black Light Thousand Blades.

Additionally, there were three pieces of Epic Equipment: Fog Boots, Black Fog Staff, and Fog Spirit Robe.

Looking at their attributes made Shen Fei once again marvel at the sheer terror of the Empress’s Rolling Wealth skill.

Most Tier Seven Abyssal Creatures are of Epic quality, but defeating them doesn’t guarantee Epic level drops.

But the Empress can at least ensure drops of the same quality, which is outrageous.

"The Master of Black Fog sure ran fast."

Shen Fei learned about the happenings of the Black Mist Abyss from the Empress’s mouth, just a pity the Master of Black Fog fled quickly.

Otherwise, they could have taken down another Tier Eight.

Shen Fei glanced at the red gear, then called Li Cunlong, "Director, do our school’s teachers lack any equipment or skills?"

"No lack at all! What’s up? Planning to clear out some equipment?"

"Well, yes."

"Most don’t lack anything, after all, they’re teachers at Imperial University."

"Even Epic level ones?"

"Ep... Wait a minute? Epic equipment and skills?"

"Yup."

"How did you even get so many Second Transformation Epic items?"

Li Cunlong, upon hearing the word ’Epic’, put down his pen, getting more interested after the Second Transformation.

Killing Abyssal Creatures isn’t that easy anymore, and their self-preservation skills have increased.

Whether it’s their life-saving or escaping ability, like him, without at least five or six Tier Seven Abyssal Creatures, it’s hard to take them down.

"Not too many, just four or five pieces."

"That’s called not too many?"

"The Tier Sevens of Black Mist Abyss were wiped out by the Empress’s group.

The Master of Black Fog abandoned his subordinates and fled. Back then, Wan Fawang was also there, so they all surrounded him."

"Oh, I see."

Li Cunlong nodded, "Alright then, I’ll grant you teacher-level logistical privileges.

You can upload the items you want to trade.

Enter your desired price and the items you want in exchange. When the time comes, if any teacher or professor is interested, they will exchange with you."

"Great."

Li Cunlong hung up the phone, shaking his head. Shen Fei is just absurd.

Just joining the university with professor-level strength, he suddenly remembered what Zhong Yan and Zhao Jing suggested earlier.

’Why not ask later if Shen Fei is interested in having his Summoned Beast become a professor...’

"Knock knock~"

At this moment.

Li Cunlong’s thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door, "Come in."

"Teacher Waang, what brings you here?"

Li Cunlong saw the visitor and smiled.

Waang Dongchuan, with a refined face and gold-rimmed glasses, smiled, "Director Li, can’t I come to see you for no reason? After all, when we were studying, weren’t we both from Zhenyuan?"

Hearing those familiar words, Li Cunlong’s previously smiling mouth calmed down.

So, he came to gather intelligence.

"No visit without a reason, Teacher Waang, just say what you need."

"I heard the establishment of the Innovation Association was approved by you, Director Li." Waang Dongchuan, seeing Li Cunlong’s expression, originally carrying a bit of relaxed mood turned somewhat uneasy.

Li Cunlong nodded, "Yes, what’s wrong?"

"But wasn’t this society’s establishment... I..."

"Could I not authorize it as the acting Deputy Director of the Combat System?"

"Of course, of course." Waang Dongchuan already sensed something was wrong, but previously Zhenyuan communicated to him to block Shen Fei’s approval slightly.

Who knew the application form for Shen Fei’s society never even reached him before it was established.

A couple of days later he found out it was approved by Li Cunlong.

He worried whether Shen Fei’s backing was actually Li Cunlong?

But Li Cunlong was also from Zhenyuan during his student days.

How could he permit Shen Fei to establish a society to counter Zhenyuan?

"Let students handle matters between themselves.

Teacher Waang, after all, the school rules back then were written like this.

Is there any problem with me approving Shen Fei’s society application?"

"But the Vice Principal..."

Li Cunlong interrupted Waang Dongchuan, "Haven’t I made myself clear?

Let students handle matters between themselves. Even the Vice Principal can’t interfere, got it?"

Waang Dongchuan felt a chill in his heart.

These words were clear, even the Vice Principal couldn’t interfere.

To be the Vice Principal of Imperial University, one would have to be a Tier Nine Professional. Yet even the Vice Principal couldn’t intervene...

"But Zhenyuan has supplied so many talents to the outside world..." Waang Dongchuan was a bit unwilling.

He had benefited exactly because of being from Zhenyuan.

Li Cunlong’s eyes narrowed slightly, his voice already turning cold, "Waang Dongchuan, haven’t I been clear?

Are you a teacher of Imperial University or Zhenyuan?

Moreover, it’s Imperial University that provides talent to the outside world, not Zhenyuan!"

"Zhenyuan and Martial Movement, those societies were products of a special period back then.

"To better manage the exploratory period when Professionals were just starting back then."

"That doesn’t mean this thing can exist forever!"

Waang Dongchuan heard the extremely sharp words from Li Cunlong.

It was the first time he heard Li Cunlong so clearly state that organizations like societies shouldn’t exist.

"Alright."

"By the way, I don’t want our conversation in the office today to get out. A decision will be made in a few days."

Li Cunlong’s voice sent a chill down Waang Dongchuan’s spine.

"I understand."

...

The issues concerning Shen Fei and the five major societies have already caused an uproar on the forum.

Previously, it was just a conflict between Shen Fei and Zhenyuan.

Now the topic has turned into a ’reform of the society system.’

And the initiator is Shen Fei.

Because someone has calculated, the five major societies control all the student permissions delegated by the school.

In other words,

if the Innovation Association wins this time, a giant akin to a student council will emerge in Imperial University.

As for the current members of the five major societies,

that would mean Shen Fei suppressing students throughout the whole school, a truly formidable figure.

"Incredible, if Shen Fei actually pulls this off, who at Imperial University won’t know Shen Fei in the future?"

"Isn’t this just trying to monopolize power? When did such people become worthy of admiration?

The existence of five major societies at least allows for mutual checks and balances. That’s true democracy and freedom!"

"Ha ha, democracy and freedom? Aren’t there endless conflicts between the major societies?

Do you really think societies are so peaceful among each other?"

"I’m a freshman, the leader not only established the Innovation Association but also allocated various functions well.

There’s even an internal self-correction system, which will be managed by the school’s inspection team."

"School? Is Imperial University going to have a student council too? Will I be bullied?"

...

This issue is causing an increasingly larger storm; one could say it’s the biggest event in recent days.

Among the high expectations,

the showdown between the Innovation Association and the five major societies finally began.

The venue for the societies’ battle is a massive hall since many participants are needed for the societies’ showdown.

The members of the five major societies had already arrived; what used to be an empty venue is now packed.

Zhou Yi, holding a gun, looked at Lin Zhige, "I heard you plan to back Shen Fei? What about your so-called warrior spirit?"

Lin Zhige, tall and sturdy, stretched and said, "Don’t worry, I’ll do my best this time. You don’t need to lecture me."

"Their backing is substantial; we haven’t even heard a whisper about it during this period." The president of the War Frenzy society, Xinglin, had a strained expression.

He felt numb inside.

His War Frenzy was just a small society.

Nonetheless, it had the authority to organize students to the Abyss.

It was now about to face obliteration.

Zhou Yi heard Xinglin’s words and his eyes shifted a bit; upon returning, he also sent people to investigate Shen Fei’s background regarding this issue.

The more they dug, the more they were shocked.

A newbie with Tier Six combat power?

Even he hadn’t reached Tier Six strength; for a newcomer to possess such prowess was absurd.

Initially, he thought if he lost, so be it, yet he didn’t expect Shen Fei would take on all five major societies.

He even considered using Zhenyuan’s connections to see if they could privately talk with Shen Fei.

However, surprisingly,

all teachers and professors from Zhenyuan responded to their probing with only one line, ’Students should resolve student matters themselves.’

Zhou Yi knew.

Jiang She probably hasn’t figured out Shen Fei’s backing. This guy became increasingly audacious after connecting with someone influential.

When contacting him, he only mentioned there was a newcomer wanting to challenge Zhenyuan.

"Boss, the club said they wouldn’t let Zhenyuan be abolished, even if Shen Fei really won.

An Emperor from the club will pay a visit here."

Jiang She whispered behind Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi’s slightly uneasy mind felt at ease. If the club could intervene, that would be the best.

"The Innovation Association has arrived."

At this moment, students outside suddenly shouted loudly.

They saw Shen Fei coming in surrounded by a crowd, while still looking down at the information on his wristwatch.

When he got in front of Zhou Yi and others, he put away his watch and said, "Let’s start. I’m in a hurry."

After he put up the equipment and Skill Book information he had obtained, he thought it would take some time for someone to make an offer.

Unexpectedly, someone immediately came forward.

And it was an Epic Level Pharmacist Skill Book, ’Resurrection Potion.’

It can revive Professionals below Tier Eight.

In exchange, it’s the ’Black Light Thousand Blades’; indeed, high-end items are only bartered for one another.

But a face-to-face exchange was required; he estimated that after dealing with this

"Where are the rest of your Innovation Association?" Lin Zhige frowned, although Shen Fei had Tier Six strength.

But the presidents of the five major societies had at least Tier Five combat power as a bottom line, Zhou Yi and himself had even reached Tier Six.

Plus, so many people, Shen Fei alone might not necessarily win.

"For now, in the Innovation Association, it’s just me."

"Secondly, I alone am sufficient."
