Chapter 27: That Genius is Zhang Xuan



"That\'s simple!"

Yu Longqing smiled slightly.

Every year, many drifters strive for official status, and for a city lord, it was a trivial matter. He waved his hand, and soon a guard brought over a token representing the identity.

"Thank you, City Lord. Thank you, Miss!" Zhang Xuan accepted the token and felt the energy it contained. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

With this, he was now a free man, and no one would suspect or capture him arbitrarily in the future.

"Being able to naturally gain the favor of source beasts, this talent alone is worthy of respect wherever you go. It\'s indeed not suitable for you to continue being a groom and servant."

Yu Longqing smiled slightly, "Advisor Liao, take Mr. Zhang to the library and help him choose a suitable cultivation technique. If he becomes a source warrior because of this, it would count as me doing a good deed."

"Yes!" Advisor Liao bowed, "This way, please!"

"Thank you, City Lord!" Zhang Xuan followed Advisor Liao and turned to leave.

Seeing him walk away, Yu Longqing couldn\'t help but nod, "Turning an unfavorable situation into a favorable one in such a short time, and using the opportunity to free himself from slavery... He is quite interesting!"

Mo Yanxue could see the situation, and as the city lord, how could he not?

"City Lord..."

Just then, the guard from earlier hurried in again, "City Lord, Vice Principal Wu Yunzhou of White Rock Academy is here to see you!"

"Bring him in!" Yu Longqing waved his hand.

Although Vice Principal Wu\'s strength was not as great as his own, he was still a top expert in White Rock City and could not be taken lightly.

Soon, Wu Yunzhou walked in briskly. Seeing Mo Yanxue and Yu Xiaoyu present, he nodded slightly.

"What brings you here, Vice Principal Wu?" Yu Longqing laughed heartily, "Could it be you\'ve heard I successfully tamed the Cangback Eagle and came to congratulate me?"

"Uh..." Wu Yunzhou was taken aback by his vanity but played along, "Did you really tame the Cangback Eagle?"

News of the city lord capturing this source beast was known among the experts in White Rock City, but he hadn\'t expected it to be truly tamed.

"Of course! Eagle, come here!" Yu Longqing, full of pride, waved his hand.

Though reluctant, the Cangback Eagle dared not disobey. Its eyes showed disdain as it folded its wings and approached step by step, like a grumpy old official.

"Well, then I must truly congratulate you, City Lord..." Wu Yunzhou clasped his hands, his eyes showing envy.

The Cangback Eagle, exhausted for more than half a month, wasn\'t very powerful now. But once fully recovered, even some seventh-grade Jade Bone level warriors would struggle to defeat it. With its assistance, the city lord\'s strength would undoubtedly soar, making him invincible in White Rock City.

"No need to be so polite, hahaha..." After showing off, Yu Longqing beamed at the vice principal, "Besides congratulating me, what other business brings you here?"

Wu Yunzhou said, "Here\'s the situation: Today, during the source pool evaluation at the academy, a rather remarkable genius emerged. Dean Lu, impressed by this talent, wants to take this person as a disciple. However, this individual did not reveal their identity and remained exceptionally low-key. Therefore, we hope the city lord can seal the city gates to prevent any students who visited the academy today from leaving."

The matter of the Saint Level source pool certainly couldn\'t be disclosed, so he framed it as Principal Lu wanting to accept a disciple. After all, everyone present at the time had heard about it, so it was no longer a secret.

"To catch Dean Lu\'s eye, this person\'s talent must indeed be extraordinary..." Yu Longqing\'s face showed a hint of surprise. "This is also for the sake of White Rock City, so I agree."

He was quite familiar with Lu Mingrong, who had long since stopped accepting disciples. For him to make an exception now was clearly unusual.

"Thank you, City Lord!" Wu Yunzhou clasped his hands in gratitude.

"Sealing the entire city just to find one genius..." Mo Yanxue and Yu Xiaoyu exchanged glances, both equally astonished.

Previously, they had heard of this genius but had no direct sense of the situation. Now, they understood how highly this person was regarded by the principal! The genius must have at least a fourth-grade source pool! Such talent exceeded even that of the city lord!

The city lord was known as the greatest talent in White Rock City for a hundred years, but he only barely reached the fifth grade.

"It\'s a small effort, but may I know... what are the characteristics of this genius? I need to assign people to search carefully. Otherwise, while White Rock City is small, it still has a permanent population exceeding ten million, with a daily flow of hundreds of thousands. If we were to question and investigate everyone, it would be very troublesome."

Yu Longqing asked further.

Without any distinguishing features, searching for a student would be too broad a task, even for the city lord, and it would feel like searching for a needle in a haystack.

"Characteristics..." Wu Yunzhou fell silent.

Should he say this person could absorb ten thousand strands of source energy in one breath? Or that they caused the Source Pool Mountain to emit golden light?

Definitely not!

Revealing such a super genius to the city lord might not be a big deal, but the fear was that he would be taken for a madman and arrested on the spot.

After all, the events of today were so astonishing that even witnessing them firsthand made it hard to believe, let alone explaining them to others.

"Specific characteristics... First, this person is very low-key, seemingly unremarkable and without any fame in White Rock City," Wu Yunzhou thought for a moment before explaining his analysis.

If this person were well-known, they would have been chosen among the first three thousand students in the evaluation. Hence, it could be inferred that this person was exceptionally discreet.

"Second, they are young and today should be their first time entering White Rock Academy!"

If they were an older student or had previously opened a source pool, it would not have caused such an effect and commotion.

"Low-key? First time entering the academy?" Mo Yanxue frowned, "Today, not only students participating in the evaluation entered the academy, but also many servants... Should the servants be checked as well?"

After all, Zhang Xuan also went today and even approached the Nine Dragon Pillar.

"Right, there are also servants! It might trouble the city lord to check those as well, focusing on the young ones who haven\'t done much cultivation before... I\'ll send you the full list later!"

Wu Yunzhou nodded hastily, realizing he had only focused on the students and not considered the servants. Could the low-key super genius be among them?

It wasn\'t impossible! Considering that all the students who came for the evaluation had been accounted for, it was indeed puzzling that such a highly talented individual had no prior records.

"Servants? Low-key... Why do I feel like the person Vice Principal Wu is describing is Zhang Xuan?" Suddenly, Yu Xiaoyu interjected, her clear voice echoing through the hall.
