Chapter 442 Team Leader
At the award ceremony, the four elders of the council looked at Lu Yu.
"The ancient ruins will open tomorrow night, so please make preparations immediately. This secret realm will be dangerous, but the rewards will be excellent. Make good use of this opportunity!"
Lu Yu nodded slightly. "I will seize this opportunity."
"Now, we would like to announce that Lu Yu will be the leader of the team entering the ruins. Everyone will listen to his orders!"
Everyone was surprised to hear this as Lu Yu was just a young man who had entered the upper house; he was made team leader this quickly!
If it were an expedition to a normal secret realm, no one would be surprised that Lu Yu was the leader.
However, this was THE ancient ruin—a secret realm of great importance to Clanorth University. Its prominence was enough to affect the overall strength of the university!
This was the reason many couldn't understand why a freshman was appointed as the team leader, pitting him against many foreign forces and dangerous beasts.
Lu Yu also asked with uncertainty, "Are you serious about making me the captain?"
The bald old man nodded on the leftmost screen and answered, "That's right. You will be the leader, and everyone will listen to your orders. They must do whatever you tell them to do, or the upper house will expel them!"
Upon hearing this, everyone knew that the four elders were determined to nurture Lu Yu by placing him in such an important position!
As the team leader, he could not only plan the overall situation but also freely choose what he wanted when harvesting the spoils of war.
The four elders gave Lu Yu the leading role to grow and protect him.
In this secret realm, many forces would eye Lu Yu covetously. If the elders didn't place Lu Yu in a vital position, his life would be in danger.
"Since you think highly of me, I won't decline the offer. I'll take on the role of team leader." Lu Yu answered decisively and didn't care too much.
"That's good. Remember, you must fight as a team if there's any danger."
"Don't worry; we will."
"Good, good. In that case, we can set our hearts at ease. Let's call it a day, then. Jiang Lengyue, you can continue ending the ceremony."
After saying that, the four light screens disappeared, and the four huge stone pillars slowly began to sink into the ground.
Jiang Lengyue looked at the crowd. "Today's award ceremony ends here. I'm happy to see so many people here to witness this. Everyone can now leave the venue in an orderly manner."
The ceremony was very short and completed in less than a morning.
However, the audience was still happy to participate in this ceremony, even feeling they earned a lot from doing so!
The upper house was full of talents, and any one of them might become a big shot in a particular field in the future. It would benefit them to get to know each other in advance.
For example, in this ceremony, everyone obtained many important details and information about Lu Yu.
They knew well that Lu Yu's future achievements would be beyond their imagination.
The audience stood up and prepared to leave, and the sound of discussion rose.
"I guess we didn't come to this ceremony in vain. No matter how I look at it, it's eye-opening to witness such an important moment."
"Sigh, it seems that Lu Yu will reach the peak soon. I have to think of ways to curry favor with him."
"It will be hard to please him, but being on good terms with his underlings might be an option."
"Do you remember the few friends around him? I'll go back and investigate; I'll first ask my family."
"What's the hurry? Let's wait until he comes back from the ruins alive."
"Haha, don't you know how to seize the initiative?"
The originally full-seated audience soon became empty.
Yun Zirou sent her father off, and before he left, Yun Xinhai asked nervously, "Zirou, are you really going to the ancient ruins? That place is quite dangerous!"
"Dad, this opportunity is precious. Back then, I couldn't go even if I wanted to, and it was only because of Lu Yu that I got this chance. How can I let it go?"
Yun Xinhai nodded. "That's true. You'd follow the team and pay attention to your safety."
After giving some advice, he left the venue with the crowd.
Yun Zirou quickly walked to Lu Yu's side. The teleportation portal to the ancient ruins was going to open tomorrow, and they were running out of time.
Lu Yu came to the front of the audience seats and saw his aunt lying on a chair. He asked, "How is she? There shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
"There's no problem. I've healed all her injuries, and she'll recover soon."
He put his palm on Liu Yi's forehead, and a stream of warm current gushed in. Soon, the damage to Liu Yi's brain was repaired.
He stood up and looked at Lu Yu, saying, "This is the first time I've seen you so angry."
"Whoever dares touch her will die." Lu Yu said coldly.
"Since the portal will open tomorrow, let's make preparations. Unfortunately, the team member list hasn't been released yet, so we won't know who will be going with us." Xu Yuan added.
"There's no need to overthink, as they will be mostly older students. We're unfamiliar with them, so we'd better prepare."
"It's my first time in the upper house. I've heard about the training rooms, and I've always wanted to give them a try. Hurry up; it's great that I can do so today." Yun Zirou expressed a smile, and she couldn't wait any longer.
"We're not students of the upper house," Su Qing reminded her worriedly. "Can we use it?"
Yun Zirou patted her shoulder with a smile. "You're still worried about that? Our president is a hero of the upper house and the leader of the expedition team. As members of his team, don't we have the right to use the facilities here? "
Go ahead and cultivate," Lu Yu said with a smile. "No one will say anything."
These cultivation rooms' efficiency was far superior to other places, and no better cultivation environment exists in the entire Freedom Federation!
It was a pity that the stargazing tower had been destroyed. Otherwise, his cultivation speed would have been faster.
Su Qing came to Liu Yi and looked at her carefully. She shouted, "Your aunt has woken up!"
Lu Yu hurriedly walked over and supported Liu Yi's back so she could sit straight.
"Aunty, how are you feeling?"
Liu Yi nodded slowly. "I'm fine. It's like I was in a dream."
"I remember... I seemed to have been hit by something and fainted. I can't really remember very clearly..."
She looked around and asked in a panic, "No way! The award ceremony has already ended?"
Lu Yu nodded slightly. "That's right; it has already ended."
"Aw, it's a pity that I can't see you getting awarded the medal with my own eyes."
Lu Yu smiled helplessly. If it weren't for his aunt not being able to see him wearing the medal, he wouldn't have taken it so roughly from the dean.
