Before, the Hawke family had never joined the Dark Council, and had always been outside of it, cooperating only with it to a limited extent. But now, the Hawke family has also been shrouded in darkness.
Xu Feng and Song Yuqing left the secret realm. Song Yuqing seemed to be hesitant to speak. She wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing and just sighed deeply.
Just then, Xu Feng's phone suddenly rang.
"Counselor?" Xu Feng answered the phone, a little surprised. Almost all the school affairs were informed to him by the class monitor. He had only met the counselor twice, once at the beginning of the school term and once at the school morning meeting.
"Xu Feng, I'm notifying you to gather at school at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning and go to Yenching University to participate in the college league!" The counselor's voice came from the phone.
"Tomorrow morning? Are you in such a hurry?" Xu Feng raised his eyebrows. If he was going to participate in the league, it would not be three or five days, but at least one month's leave.
The City Defense Office has already begun preparations for conquering the secret realm of the Dry Bone Temple. If we really need to take a month off, it might be difficult for the City Defense Office.
"We can't help it. There are more people participating this year. The school plans to go earlier so that we can play friendly matches with other schools in advance to give you some combat experience!"
Xu Feng laughed. It seemed that Songtao University was full of confidence this year and wanted to make a splash in the league.
"Okay, counselor, I understand. But I need to ask for leave from the City Defense Office first. I don't know if I can get it!" Xu Feng said.
"Don't worry, it's okay. The vice-president has already informed your director in advance!"
Xu Feng nodded. This kind of thing really needs to be discussed with the City Defense Office in advance. After hanging up the phone, Xu Feng pondered for a moment and called his father again.
This was confirmed. However, since Xu Feng participated in the college league, the time conflicted with the City Defense Office's competition. Even if the Songtao City Defense Office reported Xu Feng's name, there was no time to compete with the City Defense Offices of other cities, so they had to give up in the end.
After all, with Xu Feng's strength, it would be easier for him to achieve good results in the weaker college league. Compared with those killers in the City Defense Office, Xu Nantian was really a little worried about Xu Feng.
What Xu Nantian didn't know was that Xu Feng's combat experience was much richer than those killers in the City Defense Office. Even if Xu Feng and a hundred people fighting on the front line of the City Defense Office were thrown into the Colosseum, the one who would survive could only be Xu Feng.
The next day, Xu Feng arrived at the school on time. The top two in the qualifying round had already arrived, and the school leaders were also there. It seemed that they had also arranged for teachers to escort them to Beijing.
The other two students were seniors and were about to graduate this year. When they saw Xu Feng, they both had inexplicable expressions on their faces, some envious, some flattering, and some jealous, and their eyes were very complicated.
In the end, the two of them just nodded at Xu Feng and did not come forward to talk. Instead, they would whisper to each other from time to time.
"Originally, we should have arranged a special car to take you there, but after thinking about it, we felt it would be a waste of time and the journey would be too tiring!" Vice President Cheng Zeqing, with a flushed face, pulled Xu Feng aside and spoke in a low voice.
"This is the first year. It's amazing that you have such strength now. The original plan was to let you participate in the league in your junior or even senior year. Unexpectedly, you won the first place with your own ability this year. It's amazing!" Cheng Zeqing's joy was beyond words. Xu Feng was one of his great achievements. The better Xu Feng performed, the greater the credit he would get for accepting Xu Feng as an exception.
The reason why Xu Feng was accepted in the first place was on the one hand because of the City Defense Office, and on the other hand because of Cheng Zeqing's support. Some people secretly criticized it at that time, but now, all the noise has disappeared.
Although Songtao University is a first-class secret university, it is also relatively backward among the first-class universities. There are at least fifty or sixty such universities in the whole of China, not to mention that there are six major universities that overshadow all the first-class universities.
If Songtao University’s No. 1 were placed in a major league, he probably wouldn’t even make it into the top 100. This is one of the reasons why Vice President Cheng said so.
Xu Feng did not seem unconvinced. He just smiled and nodded without any displeasure. Cheng Zeqing stared at Xu Feng's expression for a long time and finally confirmed that Xu Feng really did not care about the ranking. He then breathed a sigh of relief.
In Cheng Zeqing's opinion, Xu Feng is a potential stock. If he is trained well, he will definitely shine in the big leagues and enhance the reputation of Songtao University. But it is better for him to lie dormant now and preserve his strength. After all, there is still a big gap between Songtao University and the top six universities.
Soon, the three of them and several escorting teachers got on the school bus and headed for the high-speed rail station. When they got on the high-speed train, Xu Feng discovered that their carriage was almost full of students.
"Are these students participating in the University Saints Qualifying League?" Xu Feng asked the counselor beside him in a low voice. The counselor looked around, adjusted his glasses, nodded and said, "They are all participating students from other universities. They may be your opponents!"
Xu Feng was the only freshman, so the school leaders arranged for his counselor to be his accompanying teacher, which was obviously a preferential treatment for Xu Feng.
There are more than a dozen universities in Songtao City, but there is only one first-rate university, Songtao University, and there are second-rate and third-rate universities behind it. Those who can sit in this carriage are obviously the chosen ones and elite students of each school.
However, Xu Feng took a look and found that none of the students from other schools were level three apostles, but there were quite a few level two apostles and even some level one apostles. The level difference between the apostles was one level, and the strength was almost worlds apart, so it was difficult to have a comeback. Level one apostles might be considered good students in their respective schools, but in the big leagues, they would most likely be just a day trip.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
After a while, Xu Feng felt the train began to move slowly. At this moment, the door of this carriage was pushed open, and a familiar figure appeared at the door.
"Hey, Xu Feng, I didn't expect to meet you here!" The other person glanced at the carriage, his eyes fell on Xu Feng, and he couldn't help laughing.
Xu Feng also stood up with a smile on his face. He didn't expect to meet his high school classmate here.
"Zhang Hong, are you also going to Yanjing to participate in the league?" Xu Feng greeted happily.
Zhang Hong was Xu Feng's high school classmate and also his deskmate. The two had a good relationship, but after entering college, the contact between them became less. Zhang Hong did not get admitted to a second-rate university in Yanjing as he did in his previous life, but chose a second-rate university in Songtao City. Perhaps it was Xu Feng, the little butterfly, who flapped its wings and changed Zhang Hong's destiny.
But it’s better this way. At least I won’t be killed in a secret place in the wild of Yanjing like in my previous life.
"Yes, I'm the only one from our university going to participate in the league this year. I was a little nervous at first, but I didn't expect to meet you!" Zhang Hong looked at his ticket and sat in an empty seat behind Xu Feng.
