On the sofa, Du Xiaofei and Liu Jun were watching TV.
On TV, there are still reports about the World Duel City Competition from time to time.
Although it has been over for a while, the popularity is still not bad, and there is a lot of value to follow and report.
Especially in this competition, the duel process is not clear.
Many duelists were interviewed.
Those duelists who have fought against the duelists in the top eight list have become the meat and potatoes of the interview.
A lot of information has been unearthed from this, but unfortunately, to this day, those reporters with great powers have still not been able to get in touch with the most valuable people for interviews.
For example, the champion Fang Ye, and the highly topical Lin You, Li Zihan, Ye Qingyi and others.
The information obtained from the players who had fought against them was that they were extremely powerful and had basically won every previous duel with a crushing attitude.
This also makes the public understand that Lin You and the others are clearly at odds with other players in terms of strength.
It can't help but further arouse the public's curiosity. How strong are they and how do they duel?
What kind of deck is driving it, and how powerful is the trump card in the deck?
I am full of curiosity and helpless. More than half a month has passed and I still cannot be satisfied.
At this moment, looking at the picture on the TV, Liu Jun said feebly: "I'm so hungry, Du Xiaofei, hasn't the takeout you ordered been delivered yet?"
Du Xiaofei also said sadly: "I'm hungrier than you, okay? I just took a few glances and the delivery was almost timed out. I guess it has to do with Niaodu being too busy during this period. After so long, there are still many people who haven't left.
Woolen cloth."
Hearing him talk about this, Liu Jun suddenly said with a sad face: "I don't know what's going on with Lin You. I haven't replied to the message I sent him with the duel number. It's been so long since the competition ended and the person hasn't shown up yet. It's the person from the university."
Bian, come to me every now and then."
"The college is looking for you?"
Du Xiaofei was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said: "Remember, you are still asking for leave from the university. Are they trying to arrest you and take you back?"
"What a fart."
Liu Jun said speechlessly: "He didn't urge me to go back at all. Instead, he urged me to contact Lin You quickly and wanted to get the battle report about his first hand in this competition from me."
Du Xiaofei was surprised and said: "Your university asked you to do this? It seems that not only the reporters here in Niaodu, but also you in Jiangcheng are very anxious now and have contacted everyone who can be contacted."
"This is not nonsense."
Liu Jun rolled his eyes at Du Xiaofei and said as if he was taking it for granted, "Don't even look at where Lin You is from. With such results in the competition this time, it would be strange if it didn't cause a sensation in the local area. I think there are people in Jiangcheng Forum.
It’s crazy, I still haven’t been discussing this matter day and night.”
After saying that, he said even more helplessly: "Lin You, the rightful owner, is good. There is no one there yet, and I don't have any confidence. I don't know where he went."
Du Xiaofei thought for a while and guessed: "Maybe it has something to do with the Duelist Association. He got such good results this time and at such an age, even the Duelist Association has to be tempted, right?"
"General Assembly?"
Liu Jun was stunned for a moment. Although he was not a genius, he also knew that the conditions for recruiting members to the Duelist Headquarters were extremely harsh.
It is said that at the very least, everyone must be a master to be eligible to apply to join.
But this may not be absolute. If it is for some absolute geniuses, it would be reasonable for the headquarters to make an exception and agree to join the membership.
Thinking of this, Liu Jun nodded slightly, "Maybe this is really the case."
As he spoke, he was very excited and a little envious: "Lin You is only less than twenty years old, is he going to join the Duelist Association? He is really amazing."
"It's truly incredible."
Du Xiaofei also expressed emotion, it was unimaginable that such a person would appear next to him.
Ding Dong.
Just as I was thinking about it, someone suddenly rang the doorbell.
“The takeaway is finally here!”
Liu Jun cheered and hurriedly opened the door, and Du Xiaofei's thoughts were interrupted.
He was also very hungry and was just waiting for takeout.
Soon, Liu Jun opened the door, but as soon as he opened the door, he was stunned.
The next moment, he widened his eyes and shouted, "Lin You?!"
"Lin You?"
Hearing Liu Jun's words, Du Xiaofei was shocked and quickly walked towards the door.
As expected, Lin You was standing outside.
"Yo."
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Lin You couldn't help but smile and say hello, and then joked: "Niu son, Du Xiaofei, you two have been living a good life recently. You look a little rounder. I'm afraid you eat delicacies from the mountains and the sea every day.
?”
"Lin You, it's really you!"
Liu Jun seemed to have not yet digested the situation before him, and said again with a shocked expression.
"Who else could it be if not me?"
Lin You said with a strange look on his face: "Son Niu, are you eating too much and getting too much nutrition, so you are dizzy?"
"No, Lin You, where have you been these days?"
Liu Jun finally came to his senses and asked quickly: "Many people are looking for you these days, especially in Jiangcheng. Many people are trying to find ways to contact you, but they can't. How can you do it?"
It’s like disappearing from the world.”
Du Xiaofei was also extremely curious and said: "Yes, Lin You, is this related to the Duelist Association? Well, don't blame us for asking, it's just out of curiosity, but if it's not convenient for you to say, then don't say anything.
"
Liu Jun also thought of this and couldn't help but nodded, "Yes, yes, Lin You, if it involves any secrets, then don't tell us. It won't be of much use if we know it anyway."
Having said that, my heart is really tickling.
No way, this World Duel City Competition is really eye-catching, but the process of the event is not completely clear, and the contestants disappeared for a long time for unknown reasons. How can people not be curious?
"The situation is somewhat special."
Lin You did not mention the death match directly, but modified it slightly: "After the competition, the association arranged a trial for us. Through this trial, we can further test and improve our strength."
Liu Jun suddenly said: "So that's it. No wonder you disappeared suddenly for so long. The trial arranged by the association must be secretive. Sure enough, the association has taken a fancy to you good prospects through this competition, so I thought
I will have a deeper understanding of you and help you grow faster."
As he spoke, he said extremely excitedly: "Lin You, you are getting better. Every once in a while, you will be able to do some earth-shattering things. If you continue at this pace, in two years, you may be able to occupy a place in the Duelist Association."
.”
"Ahem."
Du Xiaofei couldn't help coughing twice, why did Liu Jun keep talking more and more nonsense?
Lin You is amazing, amazingly amazing.
But in just two years, it is too exaggerated to expect to occupy a place in the duelist community.
In a place like that, a duelist worthy of such an evaluation must be at least a three-star master, not to mention legendary, right?
No matter how talented Lin You is, it is impossible to reach that level within two years. It would be a miracle to break through to the master level.
You know, he is less than 20 years old now... Of course, he will be 20 in a few days.
But even so, two years later, he is only 22 years old.
A 22-year-old master duelist, this sounds scary!
Looking at the entire dueling world, there are probably only a few people who can become masters at this age, right?
Du Xiaofei didn't know how many there were specifically, but at least as far as he knew, among the famous strong men, very few had become masters at this age.
But if Lin You has this talent, Du Xiaofei really believes it!
Because of this, Du Xiaofei looked at Lin You with even more reverence now.
This is definitely a legend in the future!
How lucky I am to know each other at this age!
At this moment, Lin You smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether you can occupy a place in the association. Improving your strength is the most important thing. Son Niu, you have to work harder."
The smile on his face quietly faded a lot, and there was a hint of solemnity in his voice, "This is an era that requires climbing. Maybe a short period of relaxation will cause you to fall into an abyss."
Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, but quickly said with a smile: "That's right, with you as a role model, if we are too bad, I'm afraid even deducting 6 for you won't be enough. We have to fight, we have to fight. This time I go back, I have
I have a hunch that I’m going to be completely transformed.”
"You seem a little inexplicably confident."
Du Xiaofei couldn't help but complain, "With a brother like Lin You, if it were an ordinary person, his self-confidence wouldn't be shattered to the end?"
No matter how hard you try, standing next to him, you will always feel pale. That kind of despair may be difficult to contain.
However, when he thought about Liu Jun's level, Du Xiaofei felt relieved.
Sometimes the gap is so big that you can't even see the end, which means there is no gap at all.
Because they are not on the same track at all!
Liu Jun ignored Du Xiaofei's complaints and hurriedly said: "By the way, Lin You, your trial should be completely over this time. Are there any plans for the follow-up?"
Lin You thought for a while and said: "There is no such thing as the association, but when I return to Jiangcheng this time, I will probably try to apply for early graduation."
"Graduate early?!"
Liu Jun and Liu Jun looked surprised and spoke in unison.
Soon, Liu Jun said in surprise: "Lin You, I remember that Jiangcheng University's early graduation application requires two years of schooling before you can apply. You are only one year old."
"So let's try it and see."
Lin Youtan said firmly: "Rules are dead, people are alive. I will explain my situation to the university and see if I can graduate early."
"Yes, you, Lin You, are not an ordinary person."
Liu Jun nodded, feeling that it made sense, but then asked curiously: "Then you are anxious to graduate now. Could it be that the General Assembly has really extended an olive branch to you?"
Hearing him mention this, Du Xiaofei stared at Lin You with great curiosity.
Is it really that fast?
"What are you thinking about?"
Lin You couldn't help but laugh and said: "The Federation will basically not recruit duelists below the master level. Even the master level must pass the assessment set by the Federation. The passing rate does not seem to be very optimistic."
But as he said that, he suddenly said: "But if it were me...it seems that it is not impossible to join the membership as an exception."
"puff!"
Liu Jun and Liu Jun vomited blood in their hearts and looked at each other silently, both of them seeing the thoughts in each other's eyes.
Do you want to try and kill this guy in front of Versailles?
The next moment, Lin You said again: "But as far as the current situation is concerned, I am not worried about this. I can name any association. As long as the duel merits can be accumulated normally, then everything will be easy."
Although he already has a huge amount of duel merit, no matter how much merit he has, it will eventually be exhausted.
Moreover, to meet Lin You's cultivation needs, the consumption is far greater than that of ordinary people.
Under such a premise, how could he just sit back and have nothing?
"sharp……"
Du Xiaofei sighed, "The gap between people is too big. We may still be secretly happy about earning some duel points. What you are pursuing is dueling meritorious service."
"Sooner or later."
Lin You chuckled and said, "I'll just take the first step. Just keep moving forward. Maybe in three to five years, you'll see my shadow now."
"..."
Du Xiaofei and Du Xiaofei looked at each other again, should they flatter him?
But soon, I realized a sad fact.
Even the current Lin You has reached the Glory level and reached the top eight in this World Duel City Competition.
Given three to five years, is it really possible for them to have such strength?
Well...it's impossible!
Suddenly I felt so tired.
After a moment of silence, Liu Jun quickly recovered and said again: "Lin You, when will we return to Jiangcheng?"
Although the university did not urge him to return to school because of Lin You, he could not stay outside for too long and his cultivation would be wasted!
The training environment in Du Xiaofei's home is naturally not comparable to that in his own university.
Lin You thought about it for a while and said, "Let's do it in the next two days. Whenever the air ticket is convenient, that's when."
"Then let's do it tomorrow."
Liu Jun immediately decided, "Tomorrow night's air tickets can be bought now."
"OK."
Lin You didn't have any objection. He basically had nothing to do in Bird City.
When he heard that they were arranging their departure schedule, Du Xiaofei immediately said: "If you are leaving tomorrow, how about celebrating tonight? Lin You is back, so just eating takeout is not appropriate."
Upon hearing this, Liu Jun looked at him fiercely, "Du Xiaofei, what do you mean, since Lin You won't come back, it's appropriate for me, a guest, to eat takeout here?"
"That's not it."
Du Xiaofei, however, did not have any psychological burden at all, and scolded: "How can there be a guest who eats, drinks, and lives with me all day long, and the arrangements are not bad, but he is picky and picky. If you don't know, he thinks you are my biological father.
Woolen cloth!"
"Is not it?"
Liu Jun asked back, and Du Xiaofei immediately cursed: "Get lost."
The two were laughing and joking, but Lin You said: "If you want to celebrate, you may have to be late. Forget about eating, I have a dinner later."
Dinner?
The atmosphere of confrontation between Liu and Jun disappeared in an instant, and everyone looked at it curiously.
At the dinner party in Bird City, could it be with a big shot from the association?
Or, are they other talented people I met in the competition?
Out of curiosity, the two of them didn't ask any more questions and just arranged some activities for the evening.
If you don’t want to eat, then arrange some entertainment activities and have a good time.
…
Eight o'clock in the evening.
In a top duel restaurant in Niaodu.
The handsome waiters are moving rhythmically and slowly, providing extremely high-quality services to the diners.
Everyone who comes to eat in this restaurant seems to have a certain status.
Or they are well-known video bloggers, or some large platform anchors with medium and high traffic, or even some duelists from the Bird City Association.
Therefore, when dining here, the atmosphere is quite elegant and quiet. The chatter of diners is not as obvious as the slight clink of bowls.
At this moment, at the large dining table where some video bloggers and platform anchors came together, several people's eyes were quietly casting their eyes on a dining table in the back.
There is a layer of faint blue barrier around the dining table, like a piece of transparent glass.
Everyone knows that it is a magic sound insulation barrier specially set up for distinguished dining tables, which can completely isolate external sounds.
Of course, given the positioning of this restaurant, there will naturally be no loud noises or even uncivilized behavior. The main purpose of the barrier is to ensure the safety of internal conversations.
After observing for a moment, a video blogger lowered his voice and said, "Isn't that person Yi Zhiqing? The first sister from Pineapple Live."
Next to him, a blogger also unexpectedly said: "It's her, I didn't expect to meet her here. It must be related to the previous competition."
After hearing the conversation between the two, a female anchor on a large platform asked doubtfully: "Pineapple live broadcast?"
"It's just a small platform."
Another anchor explained with a smile: "She is not the same size as our Cuttlefish. She is said to be the same sister, but her real popularity is not much different from yours and mine."
"Is this so..."
The female anchor nodded, and then sighed: "But she was able to reserve a VIP table at the 'Tianniao'. She must have a lot of ability."
Compared with ordinary dining tables, the VIP table not only has an extra magic sound insulation barrier, but also has an exclusive customized menu.
The dishes on the menu are said to be made from the finest ingredients produced in secret places.
Some precious dishes even have a certain boosting effect on duelists.
The anchor who spoke first said indifferently: "Isn't it just a VIP table? Xiaolan, if you are interested, I will take you to that table to eat some other time."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him with surprise.
The female anchor named Xiaolan covered her mouth and said in surprise: "Brother Xiaofei, can you also make a reservation? I heard that even ordinary three-star duelists cannot make reservations for this location. Do you know a glory-level duelist?"
?”
"certainly."
Brother Xiao Fei said with a proud look on his face: "Not only is he in the Glory level, he is also one of the contestants in this competition."
"impossible?"
Everyone was shocked, but someone quickly said: "It should be for entertainment, right?"
The so-called entertainment nature actually refers to contestants who have reached the entry threshold but do not have much actual competitiveness.
But even if this is the case, it must be the Glory level!
However, Brother Xiaofei shook his head again and his smile became even more proud, "It's not that simple. Not only did I participate in the competition, I also won two duel medals."
"real or fake?"
Everyone was even more surprised. Being able to get a duel medal. One could be said to be luck, but two medals were already a reflection of competitiveness.
Maybe a Glory Two-Star Duelist!
Brother Xiaofei knows such a cruel person?
A strange look flashed in Xiaolan's eyes and she said, "Brother Xiaofei, it turns out that you have such a wide social circle, you can even get in touch with contestants of that level."
Regardless of anchors like them, video bloggers are quite famous, but this fame is limited to being known by some ordinary people.
But in terms of social status, compared with duelists, they are only equivalent to some trainee duelists.
The so-called great anchors are also fixed at the level of star duelists.
Glory level duelists are an unattainable existence for ordinary people like them.
Feeling the exclamation of everyone, Brother Xiao Fei just felt that he was very respectable. He glanced at Yi Zhiqing and said, "So, reserving a VIP seat or something is to make connections, but also..."
Halfway through his words, he stopped. Then, as if he had seen something earth-shattering, his face was filled with shock.
"Fuck!"
Brother Xiao Fei couldn't help shouting. If it weren't for the special environment, he might have roared.
"I'll go, what's wrong with you?"
The people around were also startled. What was this sudden startle doing?
But he saw Brother Xiao Fei pointing at the location of Yi Zhiqing with trembling hands.
Everyone looked at it with doubts on their faces, and the next moment——
"Fuck!"
Many people couldn't hold it back and were shocked.
Someone else rubbed his eyes vigorously. Did you read that right? That person... wasn't he Lin You?
