Chapter 53: The Second Round(End)
Time was like a stream that kept flowing without caring about its surroundings, and hours passed in the blink of an eye.
The last group of students was finally called out, and once they completed their tests, Duan Chengqiu announced the end of the second round.
Fang Yuan and others in the seating area stood up from their seats, ready to leave since they had been fixed to the same spot for the entire day.
Wen Kang, Chu Yawen, and Xiong Yazhu descended to the ground, and Duan Chengqiu immediately bowed while Liu Mulinqi greeted them with a nod.
"Where has your investigation reached for the attack?"
Xiong Yazhu asked immediately.
"Give me the names of the suspects!"
He immediately asked for the names after Liu Mulinqi briefed him on the basics of the case.
Liu Mulinqi didn't know what Xiong Yazhu wanted to do, but he didn't dare to refuse and immediately handed him the names. The latter was not only more powerful than him but also had a great status in the federation with a large family behind him as well. Xiong Yazhu was an elite in the league of elites.
Xiong Yazhu pulled out his phone and recorded the names Liu Mulinqi talked about. The next moment, he tapped on the contact icon and immediately dialed a number.
"I am sending you a recording. Investigate every single one of them. You have till tomorrow."
He dialed someone and ordered. He didn't even wait for the other party's response and immediately cut the call after saying his bit.
Wen Kang and Chu Yawen seemed to have already been used to it since Xiong Yazhu was very impatient and liked to laze around. While for Liu Mulinqi and Duan Chengqiu, they were shocked when they saw the name of the contact.
It was a pretty shocking name, as the man was none other than the head of the intelligence department of the federation, and only the federation elders were above that man in status.
"Okay, I have helped you with your work, so you will be replacing me for the next week in the conference."
Xiong Yazhu suddenly stated, and before Liu Mulinqi could respond, he disappeared from the scene. The latter immediately looked at his other two seniors since he already had a large workload. If he were to attend a conference on top of that, he didn't even dare imagine where would he bring extra hours in a day since the conference was 24 hours each day for the entire week.
"That bastard!"
Chu Yawen cursed, giving Liu Mulinqi some hope that he might get out of the situation, but when he heard the next sentence, his heart sank to the bottom.
"How did he think of this quicker than me?"
"Okay since you have accepted Xiong Yazhu's help, you have to complete the deal. You don't want me to tell you what would happen if you didn't stand for your side of the bargain."
Wen Kang also disappeared from the scene and Chu Yawen followed not long after. The two knew where Xiong Yazhu had gone.
"Boy, why don't you accept me as your teacher? Do you think I am weak?" Fang Yuan's immediate refusal angered Xiong Yazhu.
After leaving the arena, he immediately followed Fang Yuan, who had not walked far since only around a minute had passed since the round ended.
He then grabbed Fang Yuan and brought him to a place where no one would disturb them.
Unaware of what was happening, Fang Yuan was panicking since only a few days ago there was a terrorist attack. Even though he had seen a lot in the Mutou world, he still felt that the other party was like a god to him.
Fang Yuan had no idea about the cultivation level of the stranger, but he was sure that it was so high that he had no chance of survival against the man at all.
"Senior, I don't think you are weak. I don't know you, so how can I accept you as my teacher?"
Fang Yuan felt like he had come across a madman. The relationship between teacher and student was even more sacrosanct than the one between families in the cultivation world.
Evil cults forced students to accept teachers or teachers to accept students. In the righteous cultivation world, it was a careful decision made between both sides since filial piety was involved.
Xiong Yazhu's anger immediately calmed down when he heard that. Fang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that, but his heart was suddenly tight when he saw a smile popping out.
Xiong Yazhu wasn't ugly at all, but for some reason that smile made Fang Yuan feel like he was being greedily looked at by a top predator.
Xiong Yazhu seemed unaware of the latter's thoughts and pulled out his phone.
"Go ahead and search about me!"
Xiong Yazhu pridefully stated, handing the phone to Fang Yuan after opening the search software.
'What a madman!'
Fang Yuan thought in his heart, but he still took the phone and then looked at Xiong Yazhu; the latter looked at him. The two looked at each other for a second when Fang Yuan broke the silence and asked for the stranger's name.
"Xiong Yazhu!"
Fang Yuan typed the name, and immediately a large page popped out on the phone, containing all the details of the man.
Fang Yuan couldn't help but take a deep breath as the details of the man were so impressive that he thought it was a made up detail.
Xiong Yazhu seemed to have heard that thought, so he commented, "It is a secu-"
"I didn't expect the great Xiong Yazhu to be so shameless!"
His voice was suddenly cut off by a female voice. Fang Yuan turned in that direction and saw a beautiful woman standing not very far from them.
