Chapter 170 Competition Ended, The First Place
Lu Yu’s question left Lin Kang at a loss for words.
Occupying the entire wild forest was not something an ordinary person could do.
The area of the wild forest was quite large, and it was rich in resources. It was considered a medium-sized secret realm.
Such a secret realm was not something that any random club could occupy.
“Well, I’m afraid it’s a little difficult. After all, this is not a small cake. Many people rely on this realm for a living.”
After thinking for a moment, Lu Yu continued to ask, “Isn’t there a secret realm that is monopolized by a single club?”
Lin Kang frowned and began to think before replying, “Well, there seems to be one. For example, the Molten Core. That is a secret realm that the Weapon Refining Club monopolizes. If other clubs want to enter, they need to notify them.”
“It seems that we still need more strength to obtain more resources. The Weapon Refining Club ranks among the top ten clubs here, and it’s normal for them to have this privilege.”
Lu Yu said firmly, “I believe that as our club continues to develop, our territory will also continue to expand.”
“This wild forest is just the beginning. Let’s grow slowly.”
Hearing this, the five club members smiled excitedly. They felt that their future was bright.
This bright future was brought to them by Lu Yu.
Therefore, they looked at Lu Yu with admiration.
The five sat before the bonfire. After dinner, they went back to their tents to sleep.
The following day, they got up early and began to carry out their mission.
The five members were ready to set off. At the same time, they were responsible for collecting spider lilies and finding more Golden Mist Birds.
After the five members left, Yun Zirou looked at Lu Yu and asked, “What are we going to do next? Are we participating in the mission too?”
Lu Yu was deep in thought. He planned to return to the bridge to see how Wang Meng was faring.
Just as he was about to return, Lu Yu’s phone suddenly rang.
He picked up the call and heard that it was a call from the university staff.
“This Battle of the Hundred Clubs will end in the evening. The rankings will be announced then.”
Lu Yu quickly asked, “It ended much earlier than expected. Why?”
“There are many unexpected situations in this competition, and there is already a huge disparity in results. There is no need to continue the competition, as the first place has already been decided.”
“Uh, alright then. In the afternoon, we will go to the gathering point in the east and wait for orders.”
After hanging up the phone, he realized that Yun Zirou and Su Qing had also received a call. It was the same notification message.
“It seems that due to Wang Meng and me blocking the bridge, the form of this competition has changed. Therefore, there’s no need to continue. However, this is also good as we don’t have to waste time.”
Yun Zirou nodded in agreement, “The most important thing in this event is to get first place. The following rankings will be rewarded, but just a consolation prize compared to the reward of first place. Therefore, after the first place is determined, there’s no need to continue.”
Su Qing looked at Lu Yu excitedly. “Wow, so we’re really going to be first this time? It feels so surreal.”
Before the competition started, Su Qing never thought that their Featherwing Club would be able to get first place.
“All the credit goes to Lu Yu. Without him, our club definitely wouldn’t be able to reach where it is now,” Yun Zirou said.
“Alright, let’s stop these meaningless praises. Let’s hurry to the gathering point.”
Lu Yu took the lead and headed toward the gathering point in the east.
The other participants who had received the notice were also heading toward the gathering point. Soon, the crowd gathered together.
The closer they got to the gathering point in the east, the fewer and more barren their surroundings got.
Soon, they arrived at an ample open space the size of a football field. It was enough for all of them to gather here.
When everyone gathered, they realized almost 90% of the people here were members of the Featherwing Club.
The remaining members of the other clubs totalled around 20 to 30 people. It was a pitifully small number.
It was absolutely impossible for them to compete in collecting spider lilies against the 200 members of the Featherwing Club.
Therefore, these clubs accepted their fate. The first was something they would not be able to get, and they strived for second and third place…
Very soon, Lu Yu, Yun Zirou, and Su Qing also arrived.
When the Featherwing Club members saw Lu Yu, they all tacitly lined up on both sides, giving Lu Yu a wide path.
Walking on this path, Lu Yu naturally had to endure the stares from both sides.
Su Qing felt a little uncomfortable, even though she was the school belle and was always the center of attention during high school.
Everyone who stood there and looked at her was an extremely talented genius, and none of them was your average student.
On the contrary, Yun Zirou seemed to be a lot more relaxed. She had experienced situations where tens of thousands of people would stare at her, so she didn’t care anymore.
Soon, Lu Yu arrived in front of the group.
Lu Yu turned his head and looked at Lin Kang in the group. He said, “Lin Kang, please report the results.”
In front of everyone was a teacher in charge of the competition. He was waiting for everyone to hand over the spider lilies they had collected.
After Lin Kang heard Lu Yu call out his name, he immediately began gathering a count.
Soon, he trotted to Lu Yu’s side. “There are a total of 173 flowers. Oh right, president, we have also collected more than 70 salivary glands from the Golden Mist Birds during this event!”
Lu Yu nodded his head in satisfaction. He still had about 50 Golden Mist Bird salivary glands on him. Including those collected by his club members, there were more than 100 of them.
“Sir, our results are out. There are a total of 173 flowers, and you can verify them at any time.”
The teacher nodded slightly and then looked at the other clubs.
“We… only have three.”
“We have ten.”
“Two…”
“Our club… doesn’t have any…”
The crowd was filled with disappointment. As seniors, they felt humiliated at this moment.
To them, a freshmen club ranked first was a great humiliation.
After the teacher looked at the data, he couldn’t help but gulp. He glanced at the crowd with mixed feelings.
He shook his head slightly. He found it hard to believe that Lu Yu’s freshman club could crush all the older clubs!
He had also watched the live broadcast and had seen Lu Yu’s performance.
“The Featherwing Club has a good president. Otherwise, these freshmen would not have much of a role in this competition.”
His words were straightforward. Without Lu Yu, the Featherwing Club was nothing!
What shocked him the most was that Lu Yu was able to turn the situation around and the structure of the competition on his own!
“The results of the Battle of the Hundred Clubs have been announced. The first place goes to the Featherwing Club! President, Lu Yu!” The teacher announced it loudly. At that moment, all the members of the Featherwing Club jumped up and cheered loudly.
