CHAPTER TEXT:
In the evening, dozens of new students who had just finished their meeting flooded into the third-floor restaurant.
Some of these students looked hesitant, some were excited, and others had expressions of envy and regret, discussing the situation in Kailya in small groups.
Xia Youhui was also a bit excited as he said, “A Chu, what do you think about us applying to go to Kailya?”
Chen Chu thought for a moment and shook his head slightly, “There are only two weeks left before the trial ends. It’s better if we don’t get ourselves into trouble; it’s a bit dangerous over there.”
With the new political system in Keluoya being refined, most cultists of the Evil God and rebels in the cities had been wiped out. This trial was nearly coming to an end.
A couple of days ago, Liu Feixu mentioned in the group that they would probably be able to return to school by the end of the month.
The reason for the wait of over ten days was that there were still some cultists and rebels lurking among the common people, some hiding in deep mountains and forests that needed to be cleared.
Additionally, several major cities were experiencing a backlash.
Especially in the royal city of Keluoya, Kailya, where many blood disciples from the second and third heavens suddenly appeared yesterday, and even high-level blood envoys from the fifth and sixth heavens emerged.
Moreover, followers of the cult of the giant god from the fourth and fifth heavens also appeared, causing significant chaos due to this sudden outbreak.
Although these Evil God cult masters were quickly suppressed and defeated by the military’s powerful forces, there were still considerable casualties.
Currently, teachers stationed in major cities had received summons and were dispatching some experts to provide support.
During the previous meeting, Liu Feixu, Xiao Hai, and Zhao Zhilong discussed this matter. Liu Feixu and Xiao Hai would fly to Celt tomorrow morning.
As for Zhao Zhilong, he would stay behind to hold the fort.
This time, besides the teachers, students who had broken through to the third heaven could also apply to go, but so far, no one had signed up.
Hearing that Chen Chu didn’t want to go, Xia Youhui turned his head and said, “But Lin Xue and the others all want to sign up. Isn’t it a bit of a pity if we don’t go?”
“Those girls…” Chen Chu frowned slightly.
An hour ago, Lin Xue and her team in Kurutur City also received the notice. Team members Lin Xue, Lin Yu, Iray, and Luo Fei all wanted to sign up.
They had mentioned this in the chat group, but at that time, Chen Chu and Xia Youhui were still in the meeting.
Unlike Chen Chu, who had already broken through a month ago, and Xia Youhui, who had done so more than half a month ago, Lin Xue and her group had gradually broken through in these past few days, with Luo Fei being the latest, breaking through three days ago.
Among the students over there, only Jiang Jiameng was still a little short, so she couldn’t go.
And it wasn’t just them.
Among the fifty-seven participants in the southern heaven martial high trials, aside from a few unfortunate ones who got injured at the start and one who died, half had broken through to the third heaven.
The others who hadn’t broken through were at the peak of the second heaven or in the later stages, likely to step into the third heaven at any moment.
This number may seem exaggerated, but one should know that when these newcomers first arrived in Keluoya, they were either in battle or on their way to battle, experiencing numerous life-and-death crises.
Additionally, with the opportunity to earn several times or even ten times the contribution points, exchanging for a large amount of resources was a normal occurrence, compressing what would normally take half a year to a year into just two months.
Of course, the most abnormal among them was Chen Chu, whose strength had increased dramatically.
Just breaking through to the mid-stage of the third heaven in one month surpassed most people.
