"Convenient! Of course, it's convenient!"
At that moment, the class leader and vice-leader transformed into eager supporters, nodding their heads like springs, which made Yu cover her mouth and smile.
"From now on, I hope the two of you can take care of me more."
As a sequence-level expert, saying such words to two big soldiers was indeed giving them face. The class leader and vice-leader hurriedly nodded and then stood beside Yu.
"Now, what's next..."
Yu gently bit her lip and slowly walked toward the military formation, observing who might be fortunate enough to become her personal guard.
However, what Yu was doing was not that simple.
At the instant Yu stepped forward, Wen Yu keenly sensed a surge of soul energy spilling out from the little soul beast on her shoulder. This energy enveloped the heads of the remaining soldiers and subtly disturbed their state of mind.
Although Wen Yu's current physical strength was lacking, his insight remained. In a short amount of time, he noticed the "wonderful use" of this soul energy.
It could discern people's true thoughts deep within their hearts.
Under the influence of this power, those who lacked capability and were filled with perverse thoughts would surely be eliminated, leaving behind only those with vengeful hearts, ambition, and ability—good soldiers.
However, with Yu currently at level eight, she couldn’t outmaneuver Wen Yu. He merely slightly altered his soul fluctuations and fabricated a persona of someone "with grand aspirations" under the surveillance of that energy.
A very simple trick... Once he completed this, Wen Yu stood at attention, quietly waiting.
...
"You!"
"You!"
"You!"
Yu pointed at nine individuals in quick succession, then walked closer to Wen Yu, hesitating as she looked at him and a soldier beside him.
Wen Yu remained focused but had already sensed what Yu was struggling with.
Because the guy next to him was a strong competitor—Wen Yu's persona was fabricated, but that person was the real deal. In fact, from Wen Yu’s perspective, the burly man next to him was indeed quite outstanding.
Give him some time and opportunity, and this guy could very well become a limit breaker expert—in other words, aside from bad luck, this person possessed all the qualities to be Yu’s personal guard.
However... excellence and being a burden were battles of different levels!
"You!"
Yu pointed, immediately directing her finger at Wen Yu’s... companion.
"Uh... this one..."
Looking at the direction of Yu's finger, Wen Yu was instantly dumbfounded.
Alright, based on his previous dreams, the "Yu" he had possessed probably hadn't become Yu's personal guard; according to the fate beast's deduction, Yu’s choice at this moment indeed aligned with reality.
"What to do?"
Even with a cheat, he couldn't win; this was truly disheartening... Wen Yu's expression fell as he glanced at Yu and then at the little soul beast on her shoulder, almost cursing out loud.
Until a hazy light flashed…
Wen Yu felt a blur in front of him, and in the next second, the scene before him changed.
"You!"
"You!"
"You!"
Yu pointed at nine people again, then walked closer to Wen Yu, facing him and a soldier beside him, a look of difficulty emerging on her face.
Wen Yu was stunned!
"You!"
This time, Yu raised her finger and lightly pointed at Wen Yu.
"Is there such a move?"
Wen Yu stared blankly at Yu and the little soul beast on her shoulder, momentarily unable to process this information.
Until the outer surveillance eye sounded an alarm.
...
Outside, the moment Yu's choice changed in the dream, the purple mist surrounding Wen Yu began to churn. In an instant, countless tendrils of purple mist surged into Wen Yu's body, wildly enhancing his physical qualities.
This violent enhancement came quickly and left just as fast. When the purple mist settled again, Wen Yu instantly realized that the boost he had just received was equivalent to what he had gained in a whole day yesterday.
This was indeed an unexpected joy... but on the other hand, while in the dream, Wen Yu slowly squinted his eyes.
