Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 514 - 402: The University Games Opening Ceremony – Lu Lin Makes a Splash
Lv Susu and Zhang Nutao exchanged a glance, both understanding each other’s thoughts.
Conquering Fox Charm City would certainly invite future retaliation from the Black Shark, but the Human Federation need not fear.
Not to mention, Lu Lin would be on the Exotic Battlefield for the next three years, providing enough high-strength combat power to keep the Alien God in check.
Even after three years, what difference does it make if Lu Lin leaves?
The strength of the Human Federation doesn’t rely on just one person.
When Lu Lin wasn’t in the spotlight before, wasn’t the Human Federation doing just fine?
We can’t become dependent on Lu Lin just because of his appearance. Without him, should we lose the ability to fend off the Alien Race?
Take it!
Fox Charm City must be taken.
At the same time, the construction of the seven cities leading to Mo Bai Mountain must also begin soon.
We can’t leave the 500 Titled Kings in the federation with nothing to do as a decoration.
It’s better to build the cities early and send these strong individuals for training.
If indeed two of them can advance to the Star Core Period, then what would the Human Federation have to fear?
We could roam the entire continent without a hitch.
"Oh, by the way, Lu Lin, what happened to Xiong Tu and Cha Yuan? You didn’t stash them away again, did you?"
"Again?"
Lu Lin was taken aback for a moment, recalling how he had just released the flight crew from the Soul Sealing Space Crystal outside Food God City a few days ago, and couldn’t help but smile.
With a wave of his hand, he released over 500 Titled Kings, leaving a few to oversee, while the rest, led by Lu Lin, returned to the federation’s forces.
This venture to the Exotic Battlefield was initially intended to teach the Black Shark God Master a lesson.
Unexpectedly, Lu Lin acquired a group of servants, capturing six of the Black Shark God Master’s eight subordinates.
Additionally, he happened to disrupt the "fun" between the Eagle Emperor and the Black Eagle Divine Master.
In a spur of the moment decision, he even engaged in a fight with Hu Yun from the higher world Fox Clan.
Although neither party suffered any consequence, the unexpected gain of the patrol duty of drumming and Ming Jin, along with a Fox Charm City, made Lu Lin feel quite rewarded.
Upon returning to Food God City, Lu Lin didn’t linger long and directly traveled through the Starry Sky Gate back home in Chongnuo City.
"Old Lu, this is from Hua Xia Traditional Chinese Medicine University. Look, doesn’t that student resemble our Lu Lin a bit?"
"Look at this, can you believe this kid is only eighteen? He’s probably over two meters tall and looks so fierce. I wonder who could match him in the arena."
"And this, from Hua Xia Detective University, isn’t that Lu Lin’s friend, Zuo Yiming?"
"Look at the representative team from Mercury Marine Academy. This flag-bearing girl is so beautiful. If she could become Lu Lin’s wife, that would be wonderful."
Mom Meng Yu was chattering away on the sofa, while Dad Lu Ping sat beside her, speechless.
"Honey, stop talking; the Iron Blood Academy team is about to come out."
"Can you be a bit quieter?"
"Hmm?"
"Lu Ping, are you tired of me after seeing so many young pretty college girls? Despite all my care, cooking, and cleaning for you, now I’ve aged, and you..."
"Dad, Mom."
Lu Lin couldn’t take it anymore from his spot at the entrance.
This old couple seemed to have nothing better to do all day, arguing over who knows what TV program.
"Hmm?"
Both of them turned around to see Lu Lin standing at the door.
Meng Yu’s face lit up with a trace of delight.
"Son, you’re back!"
She stood up from the sofa, sized up Lu Lin from head to toe, and was relieved to see he wasn’t injured.
Having gone through so many incidents before, Meng Yu now understood Lu Lin’s status and strength in the federation.
Whatever Lu Lin does, it surely has a purpose beyond her comprehension.
She and Lu Ping weren’t concerned about that; all that mattered was Lu Lin’s safety.
"Yes, Mom, what were you and Dad arguing about this time?"
"Nothing, just our usual marital banter. You, a young kid, don’t need to ask about everything."
"But, you know, the Federation University Student Games are having the opening ceremony right now. To be honest, if you weren’t already a Titled King, you might have appeared on TV."
"Oh? The University Games?"
Sitting down on the couch beside his parents, Lu Lin opened his personal terminal. Indeed, the opening ceremony of the University Games was flooding every channel.
Most Beautiful Campus Belle leaderboard.
Predictions of Iron Blood Academy winning first place again.
Ranking predictions for Hua Xia Detective University.
The dominance of the Marine Academy in water-based combat.
And so on.
The various news stories left Lu Lin dazzled.
As each school’s team took the stage and showcased their spirit, online discussions flared up.
Being the finale, Iron Blood University was set to appear last, about half an hour from now.
Lu Lin checked the schedule, noting there was still about half an hour until Iron Blood University’s turn.
An idea struck him.
"Mom, aren’t you a bit disappointed you can’t see me on TV?"
"Isn’t that obvious, you rascal."
Meng Yu playfully smacked Lu Lin on the head before saying, "But now that you’re a Titled King, there’s no way you could participate in this kind of competition. Even if you won first place, it would have no credibility."
"Indeed, Lu Lin, best not to think about entering the competition now."
Dad chimed in from the side, not wanting his words to spur Lu Lin into doing something untimely.
"Mom and Dad, what are you thinking? With my current ability, if I compete with them, just a little extra force in my breath would make them no match for me."
"Isn’t it true that Iron Blood University will only go on stage in half an hour? As a student, can’t I just go up and show my face?"
"Show your face? What do you want to do?"
Mom asked curiously.
"Hehe, if I tell you, it won’t be fun. Just remember to watch me on TV later."
Lu Lin gave a mysterious smile, didn’t explain it to mom, and directly teleported away from home.
Leaving Lu Ping Meng Yu looking at each other in astonishment.
This kid, hopefully won’t cause any trouble.
Lu Lin had been to Bovangpo City before.
This time, the University Games were being held at the Century Gymnasium in Bovangpo City.
When Lu Lin teleported there, he immediately dialed Wang Jianfang’s phone number.
"Hey, Principal Wang, I want to ask, has the flag bearer for our school’s team been decided?"
"I don’t mean anything, it’s just that I’ve just finished up some matters at the Exotic Battlefield, and thought I could earn a bit of honor for the school."
"No, no, no, don’t worry, with my current ability, I definitely won’t participate in the competition."
"Okay, release your aura and I’ll teleport over right away."
Before the call on the personal terminal was even disconnected, another person appeared beside Wang Jianfang.
It was Lu Lin.
At this moment, Wang Jianfang was together with Yang Jun, Lei Ming and some other teachers from Iron Blood Academy, helping to calm the students who were about to perform.
But Lu Lin’s sudden appearance through teleportation startled the students present.
Lu Lin?
Teleportation?
Isn’t that something only a Level 9 Martial Artist can achieve?
A few months ago, when Lu Lin was kidnapped to the Exotic Battlefield, the school’s participants were well aware of it, as they were the ones Lu Lin led to Saturn for training.
But at that time, wasn’t Lu Lin’s ability just barely at Level 6?
Although he was indeed talented, it was something everyone could accept.
However, in just four months, Lu Lin had reached Level 9.
At this rate, advancing a level each month, next time they meet, he might become a Titled King powerhouse.
"President."
"Lu Lin."
"Mr. Lu."
Different titles echoed, and Lu Lin waved at everyone without saying much.
He had already told Wang Jianfang over the call that he wanted to be the flag bearer for Iron Blood Academy.
Currently, the person responsible for bearing the flag was the former Student Union President, Zhang Lu.
Zhang Lu was set to graduate in a month, and he wasn’t eligible to participate in this University Games.
However, since he was the student who earned honor for the Iron Blood Academy in the previous University Games, having him as the flag bearer also symbolized passing the responsibility to others.
Now that Lu Lin suddenly appeared and expressed his intention to be the flag bearer, Zhang Lu couldn’t stay calm.
Without waiting for Wang Jianfang to speak, upon hearing Lu Lin’s request, Zhang Lu handed the Iron Blood Academy’s flag to Lu Lin without a word.
"Mr. Lu, this is for you."
"Originally, this duty should have been yours. If it weren’t for your absence, I wouldn’t have taken this role."
"Thank you, Senior Zhang."
Lu Lin accepted the flag without hesitation, waving it back and forth in his hand, feeling extremely excited.
Two years ago, he was holed up in his single dorm room, watching college students who could bear the flag and pour their blood and youth on the battlefield at the University Games, feeling enormous envy.
Unexpectedly, in just two short years, Lu Lin not only managed to get into the federation’s top Iron Blood Academy but also got to be the flag bearer at the opening ceremony of the University Games, drawing the eyes and attention of countless people across the federation.
It’s simply unimaginable.
"Iron Blood University, get ready, you’ll be up in two minutes."
A volunteer came in to report the time; Lu Lin nodded to show that he understood.
Watching the teams leave the waiting area one by one, a new thought suddenly popped into his mind.
Shake things up.
Over the years, the entrance ceremonies for the University Games had always been the same.
Aside from the constantly updated school uniforms and participating students, there wasn’t much difference in the opening ceremonies.
This University Games was Lu Lin’s first participation.
But it was also Lu Lin’s last participation.
He felt it was necessary to make this entrance a classic moment, a scene that would never go out of style.
Not for any showoff, just to avoid leaving regrets in his youth.
In a moment, Lu Lin had an idea.
He possessed immensely powerful spiritual strength.
Plus, he just got the Lingtian Secret Skill from Chen Buming.
Lu Lin immediately had an idea, a slight smile appeared on his face.
Friends across the federation who are watching this University Games opening ceremony, are you ready?
Not far away, Wang Jianfang, whose eyes had been on Lu Lin the entire time, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat upon seeing his peculiar smile.
This nice and proper opening ceremony better not be messed up by Lu Lin.
Hopefully not.
"Iron Blood University team, please enter."
"Iron Blood University team, please enter."
As voices rang out, Lu Lin let out a gentle cough and led the students behind him out of the waiting hall...
