Chapter 43 Invitation
Chapter 43 Invitation
Upon entering Tian Nan University, Alkaid had already activated the Perception Secret Technique, quietly searching for any abnormal individuals that might appear.
As a densely populated area, such places theoretically harbored quite a few demons.
But...
As Alkaid made his rounds, he found nothing of note.
"Master Alkaid, please, this way,"
Lei Yun said, adding, "Since you mentioned not to draw attention, I didn't notify anyone."
Alkaid nodded.
After getting out of the car and following Lei Yun, they headed toward the venue of the robotics competition.
The competition was held at the main sports ground.
Given the importance Tian Nan University placed on this event, it naturally attracted the attention of many students.
Following the crowd, Alkaid quickly arrived at the outskirts of the event.
He glanced toward the judges' seats but didn't spot Chief Zhou's figure.
"Chief Zhou's car has arrived, but he might still be inside, which is why he hasn't come out..."
Lei Yun explained.
No sooner had she finished speaking than a group of middle-aged men, looking like leaders, walked toward the judges' seats surrounded by a crowd.
Having seen videos, Alkaid immediately recognized Chief Zhou.
However, as he carefully sensed...
He didn't feel anything unusual about the old man.
"Could it not be?"
Alkaid thought to himself.
He followed the crowd to a spot not far from Chief Zhou.
His perception, having reached the Fifth Rank of Divine Intent, enabled him to discern a person's strength and even the flow of their life force from the smallest details.
After his careful observation...
He had to admit something.
Chief Zhou was just an old man in his sixties.
Probably one or two years away from retiring and going home to enjoy his old age.
Moreover, he likely had some deficiencies in vigor and insufficient cardiac strength.
Understanding this, Alkaid quietly "sensed" again.
Indeed, there wasn't a single abnormal individual in the vicinity.
Eventually, he withdrew his gaze and turned around.
"Let's go."
Lei Yun, puzzled, still obediently followed him to the car.
Su Chiming had given Alkaid three cars in one go.
An SUV, a family car, and a sports car.
Considering they were at Tian Nan University, where there were many young people, Lei Yun was driving the SUV.
And the cars Su Chiming provided were naturally no simple matter.
This SUV was worth over three million on the market.
At that moment, several young students were taking photos in front of the car.
When Lei Yun pressed the car key, Alkaid turned his attention aside.
Zhang Rufeng, whom he had met before, along with the once-encountered Zhang Hong and another middle-aged man, came over.
Alkaid's gaze fell on the middle-aged man first.
The aura about him...
Was strange.
Like fierce fire searing oil, intensely burning.
This state of burning kept his body perpetually at some sort of limit.
After speaking, he walked straight toward his car.
"Alkaid."
Zhang Tianji called out again, "Do you want to break through to become a Grandmaster in a short period of time!?"
The Grandmaster said solemnly, "As long as you are willing to return to the Zhang Family and become a member, I can use the credits I've accumulated over the years to apply for a precious Grandmaster achievement slot from the president for you!"
"A Grandmaster like you?"
Alkaid glanced at him.
He shook his head.
Zhang Tianji was slightly taken aback, and then his pupils narrowed, "What do you know?"
"Isn't it obvious? I figured it out with just one look."
"Look!?"
Zhang Tianji looked at Alkaid and seemed to think of something, his expression somewhat surprised.
The next moment, he circulated his qi and blood, allowing it to flow.
And almost as soon as his qi and blood began to flow, Alkaid's gaze involuntarily followed the trajectory.
This abnormality sparked an unprecedented brilliance in Zhang Tianji's eyes.
"A natural marvel!?"
He couldn't help but exclaim aloud.
Alkaid paid no further attention to Zhang Tianji and was about to leave.
But at this moment, Zhang Tianji, filled with excitement, blocked his way, "Alkaid! Great lad! No wonder you managed to become a martial master in such a short time. You are simply... a natural Martial Saint seed! You even have a better chance than others to climb to the God Realm and become one of the strongest of this era, to stand against those..."
As he spoke, he said solemnly, "No matter what, joining us is the best choice for you!"
At that moment, Alkaid seemed to think of something and suddenly asked, "Could it be... that your organization also possesses some kind of refining technique?"
"Hmm!?"
A movement stirred in Zhang Tianji's heart, "Has someone reached out to you?"
Then, he seemed to make a connection, "Indeed, even with your talent, it would be impossible to cultivate to this level so quickly without the guidance of a stronger power... Who was it? Xia Wuyuan? Feng Dong?"
"Xia Wuyuan?"
Alkaid had thought that the organization behind Zhang Tianji was related to Yulong International and possessed a refining technique similar to Divine Blood.
If that were the case...
He would naturally be willing to join, and then root them all out, taking them down one by one.
But hearing him mention Xia Wuyuan...
It seemed not to be the case.
"Whether joining you or the Zhang Family, I must first understand your organization,"
Alkaid said.
"Our organization..."
Zhang Tianji pondered for a moment, considering Alkaid's identity, and said solemnly, "is called the Salvation Society."
He looked at Alkaid and said, "Believe me, joining us, you will have no regrets!"
He paused, then continued, "Only by joining us can you truly fulfill your potential. In the future... not to mention becoming a Martial Saint, even ascending to the God Realm is not a vain hope."
"You at least need to let me understand the nature of the Salvation Society,"
Alkaid said.
"Someone will contact you and explain the aims of our Salvation Society in detail,"
Zhang Tianji said.
He did not forget the mission he carried, "As long as you are willing to join us, I can promise you any conditions, even if you want the entire Zhang Family, I can give it to you."
Lei Yun glanced at Zhang Tianji.
The Zhang Family relied solely on Zhang Tianji's influence to develop rapidly in these years, making his promise...
Far from weightless.
"Then let's get to know each other better before making a conclusion,"
Alkaid nodded and turned to leave.
