Chapter 26: Farewell to Qu Yi

Genres:Martial Arts and Xianxia Last update:25/03/23 21:01:36
    Because of the time delay, the high-speed train arrived at Jujiang Station in the early hours of the next morning.

    After Dihuan left the station, he immediately hailed a taxi to go to Puha Wudao Square.

    Puha Wudao Square is the place where the Blue Star Ten University recruitment examination will take place this time. Since Qu Yi wants to participate in the recruitment examination of the Blue Star Ten Universities, he will definitely come here.

    The Puha Wudao Square was built for less than a decade, where it often hosts various martial arts competitions. The surrounding area has always been lively.

    Puha is a big city, and he knew that Qu Yi would be here. Finding Qu Yi was not an easy task.

    He will be staying here for several months, and he needs to find a place to stay first.

    Ding Huan originally wanted to stay in a good hotel, as he would be staying here for two or three months at least. At least he had to ensure the quietness for his cultivation.

    To Ding Huan's surprise, even though he had arrived more than two months in advance, the hotels here were still in high demand.

    It's not that there are no places to stay now, but during the recruitment examination period of the Blue Star Ten Universities, there are no available rooms in the hotels.

    Ding Huan needs to stay here for a few months, so it's not suitable to book such a room.

    After visiting several places, he finally booked a room in a not very large hotel, and he could stay there until after the Blue Star Ten Universities' assessment.

    This room was actually booked by someone else online and just cancelled recently, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to book it either.

    Whether those students who come to take the examination have rooms is not within Ding Huan's consideration.

    He must have already arranged rooms for those students' parents, so there's no need for him to worry about it.

    As for Geng Qianxing, there really isn't a place to stay, so he will sleep on the floor here.

    After resting in the hotel for one day, Ding Huan went out the next day.

    He had two things to do. First, he needed to see if he could find any news about Qu Yi.

    Qu Yi will definitely be in the vicinity of Puha Wudao Square as he is participating in the recruitment examination of the Blue Star Ten Universities.

    He looked around the Puha Wudao Square area carefully, hoping to find Qu Yi.

    Once he finds Qu Yi, he will look for a genetics lab and then rent it for three days.

    When Ding Huan arrived at the Puha Wudao Square, he finally understood why Qu Yi had to come here early.

    Almost the entire perimeter of the Puha Wudao Square is filled with vendors selling unidentified gene drugs, with prices ranging from high to low.

    Ding Huan didn't even need to ask; he knew that most of these gene drugs were fake.

    In addition to these, there are also various martial arts rapid improvement classes, short-term gene fusion training, and gene fusion level testing...

    As long as you can think of any projects that might be related to the recruitment examination of the Blue Star Ten Universities, you can find them here.

    There are also legitimate gene institutions, such as the building in front of Ding Huan, which is inscribed with 'Hua Xia Martial Arts and Gene Testing' in a seal script at the top.

    People keep coming and going, and there are many people distributing flyers in the small square in front of the entrance.

    Before Ding Huan reached the entrance, he already had several flyers in his hand.

    Now, as Ding Huan looked more closely, he saw that the testing services here included gene type tests, gene fusion potential tests, and gene growth potential tests.

    The last two are precisely the content of the recruitment examination of the Blue Star Ten Universities. It is estimated that some of the students who will participate in the assessment will come here to test in advance at least, so they can have a better understanding.

    Ding Huan is certain that if he's not mistaken, Qu Yi is here to take the recruitment examination of the Blue Star Ten Universities. Therefore, Qu Yi will probably come here to test these two items more than eighty percent of the time.

    As Ding Huan hesitated whether to go in or not, he heard someone speaking in a low voice not far away.

    "...... What? A gene-compatible organism again? There was another girl with gene affinity a few days ago..."

    "Also staying at the Nine Yue Hotel?"

    "Yeah, with so many people testing their genes these days, we should keep a closer eye on things. Maybe there will be other types of genes that appear..."

    The two people's conversation grew smaller, and Ding Huan saw them enter the gene testing hall inside.

    It was also because Ding Huan was now a first-level gene master, which allowed him to hear clearly. However, the conversation between the two people made Ding Huan extremely alert.

    Coupled gene body? Gene affinity?

    Ding Huan stared at the disappearing figure of the two people, thinking of Qu Yi in his heart.

    During the recruitment examination period of the Blue Star Ten Universities, various gene bodies will appear here one after another, and there will not be a shortage of gene affinity.

    Qu Yi should have been taken away after participating in the assessment of the Blue Star Ten Universities in his previous life...

    This is still uncertain. If Qu Yi had come to test her gene type and gene fusion ability in her previous life, and she had revealed herself to be a gene affinity, the Gene Alliance might have taken her away earlier...

    It's very likely, other organizations may still be hesitant to take Qu Yi before the recruitment examination of the Blue Star Ten Universities, but the Gene Alliance is different.

    The Blue Star Ten Universities were founded with the Gene Alliance as one of the initiating organizations.

    Instead of immediately going to the Nine Yue Hotel, Ding Huan stayed outside the official Martial Arts and Gene Testing Building.

    Ding Huan waited for two hours, finally seeing the two people who had previously been talking walk out.

    The two were chatting as they walked towards a hotel not far away, and from a distance, Ding Huan could see the name of the hotel, which was a five-star hotel.

    Indeed, it's very efficient. Instead of searching for special gene bodies here, they don't even want to walk a few steps more, and just choose a hotel across the front of the Chinese Martial Arts and Gene Testing Building.

    Ding Huan followed the two, and after they entered the hotel, he followed up.

    The two walked through the hotel lobby and pressed the elevator button.

    Ding Huan did not follow, as with his current eyesight, even from a distance of over ten meters, he could easily see which floor the elevator had reached.

    A few minutes later, the elevator stopped on the eleventh floor.

    Only then did Ding Huan walk to the elevator entrance and press the button, then went to the ninth floor. After reaching the ninth floor, Ding Huan walked up the stairs to the eleventh floor.

    The hotel room corridors formed an L shape, and Ding Huan slowly walked along the eleventh floor corridor.

    When he reached room 1123, Ding Huan heard the sound of two people talking inside.

    Although the soundproofing effect of this room is decent, it is of no use to Ding Huan, as he can hear everything clearly.

    After confirming that the two people were staying in room 1123, Ding Huan finally left.

    .....

    After leaving the Dandong Grand Hotel, Ding Huan still went to the Jiyue Hotel.

    Ding Huan's heart was very clear that Qu Yi was unlikely to believe him. He still hoped he could convince Qu Yi.

    Ding Huan was preparing to go to the lobby and directly ask the front desk for the room number where Qu Yi is staying, or request that they call Qu Yi down for a visit.

    However, Ding Huan stopped about one hundred meters away from the Jiyue Hotel. He saw Qu Yi, and the girl by Qu Yi's side was still the same girl he had seen in Arm River.

    There was also a man and a woman with Qu Yi, both of whom were middle-aged.

    Ding Huan could tell at a glance that the two were martial artists. From the relationship between Qu Yi and them, it seemed that they were quite close.

    It seems that Qu Yi is not without preparation either. She has people protecting her side.

    However, after hesitating for a few seconds, Ding Huan quickly walked forward and called out, "Qu Yi."

    The group turned around, and when they saw that the person coming was Ding Huan, Qu Yi couldn't believe her eyes.

    Ding Huan actually followed her from Arm River to Puha, and even found his way here. How did he find it?

    The girl who was with Qu Yi saw that it was Ding Huan, and instinctively covered her mouth.

    It took her a while to react; she looked at Ding Huan with disbelief, "You... actually followed me all the way from Anhe County to here?"

    Upon hearing the girl's words, the man and woman staring at Ding Huan with unfriendly expressions.

    Ding Huan could only say to Qu Yi, "Qu Yi, I really have no ill intent. I'm just here to find you for something important."

    "Er... Do we really know each other?" Qu Yi looked at Ding Huan uncertainly.

    Ding Huan coming to Puha to find her, it seems that he didn't have any malicious intent. This made her doubt whether she really forgot a friend.

    Qu Fei said that Ding Huan looked more dangerous, but she really didn't think so. Although Qu Fei's words made sense, she had left Arm River County early that morning with Qu Fei.

    Ding Huan said sincerely,

    "Qu Yi, maybe you don't recognize me, but I know you do. I hope you can give me ten minutes, and we can talk in this lobby. Is that okay?"

    Upon hearing that they would chat in the hotel lobby, Qu Yi subconsciously nodded.

    Before Qu Yi could speak, the middle-aged man beside her spoke in a low voice,

    "Who are you? Where do you come from? Why are you following Qu Yi? What do you want to talk to Qu Yi about?"

    Ding Huan guessed that the middle-aged man should be Qu Yi's relative or someone very familiar to her. Hearing his question, he could only slightly bend forward and then said, "Sir, I am Ding Huan from Anhe County. I have followed Qu Yi here because I have something important to discuss with her."

    "I know Qu Yi is here to take the Blue Star Ten Universities examination. I have a way to help Qu Yi and get her admitted to one of the Blue Star Ten Universities..."

    Ding Huan saw that the middle-aged man would definitely not let Qu Yi sit down with him alone, so he had to speak with a grain of hope.

    "Hmph." The middle-aged man snorted coldly, his gaze on Ding Huan was like a murderous one.

    "You leave now, and I'll act like nothing happened. But if you dare to stay here any longer, don't blame me for not being polite."

    "Uncle Ji, he probably doesn't have any malicious intent. I can feel that he doesn't have any ill will towards me." Qu Yi explained, she could feel that Ding Huan had no malicious intent.

    No reason, completely an intuition.

    "You don't know anything at all; that's why I'm not at ease with you coming out." The man called Ji Yu gave Qu Yi a stare.

    Qu Yi quickly lowered her head, without continuing to speak.

    Ding Huan could only say, "If there are any problems that can't be solved in the future, you can find me."

    I am the mentor of the students participating in the examination from Yujiang University, and this time, I also brought three students to take the recruitment examination for the Blue Star Ten Universities.

    "Are you the mentor?" The girl who had been with Qu Yi since the beginning was surprised to hear this.

    (That's all for today's update, good night everyone)

    Ding Huan smiled, "That's right, I am indeed the mentor. I actually want to help Qu Yi, and I truly have no malicious intent."

    "That's it, you can go now." The middle-aged man obviously didn't believe a single word of what Ding Huan said.
