Chapter 148 The Right to Choose a Substitute
The morning was bright and sunny, with sunlight streaming through the clouds and through the window onto Hua Yu's face.
"Ring ring ring~~~"
A phone suddenly rang.
Hua Yu rubbed his eyes, got up, and glanced at his phone.
Eight o'clock!
Goodness, how punctual, how familiar the timing.
"Hey, what's up?"
"In three days, you and the new recruits will rejoin the team." The person on the other end of the phone was the one with the most authority among the five mentors of the National Team.
"Oh." Hua Yu asked, puzzled, while washing up, "Has the person been chosen?"
Why hadn't Mu Nujiao mentioned this before?
Hua Yu hasn't really been paying much attention to what's happening in the national team lately.
After all, the people from that place were just substitutes for the National Team. Who would advance was not something he, as the captain of the National Team, should be concerned about.
What he didn't expect was that Feng Li's next words gave him a headache.
"No, this time three members of the National Team broke through to the advanced level, which was something we didn't consider. We mentors still haven't decided who to choose to fill Zu Jiming's position."
"There are only three days left, why aren't you hurrying up?"
Hua Yu looked at herself in the mirror, tidied her hair a little, then turned around and took out a bottle of holy water, which she ate with bread for breakfast.
A life of luxury begins every morning!
As the holy water entered his stomach, the plant-based star began to stir, and the barrier, as thin as a cicada's wing, was thus easily breached.
Led by the vast starry sea of the eldest brother, the younger brothers were not satisfied with just small amounts of stardust.
For Hua Yu now, there is no longer any barrier between stardust and nebula; he only needs to accumulate enough energy to break through.
In the time it takes to drink a glass of water and eat a loaf of bread, the plant-based system has reached the intermediate level.
"No, it's not us who need to hurry, it's you who need to hurry." Feng Li suddenly laughed.
"Huh?" Hearing Feng Li's words, Hua Yu was slightly taken aback and asked, somewhat puzzled, "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is that, after a unanimous decision by our mentor group, we have chosen you, the captain of the National Team, to be in charge of selecting one of those three people," Feng Li explained.
All three were quite strong, even on par with some of the members of the National Team. Feng Li was already hesitant.
But that wasn't the end of it. What troubled Feng Li was that the forces behind the three of them all got involved.
Perhaps knowing his temperament, no one approached him, but the other four seemed to have already been persuaded.
Of the four mentors, two supported Mu Tingying, one supported Mu Nujiao, and one supported Lu Yilin.
This also shows that, domestically, the Mu family's influence far surpasses that of other families.
Their family could even escort two of their own scions into the National Team, while other families were struggling to even compete for a single spot.
Although Feng Li did not take sides and was focused on improving the strength of the National Academy team, he was also a little annoyed by the argument between the other four mentors, so he simply handed over the choice to Hua Yu, the captain of the National Academy team.
Feng Li never forgot the person who called Hua Yu when he returned to China without permission last time.
With that person protecting them, no matter who Hua Yu chooses, no one from the other families will dare to say a word.
After listening to Feng Li's words, Hua Yu only needed a moment's thought to understand the gist of the matter. He shook his head with a smile and said helplessly, "As mentors, how can you bear to dump such troublesome matters on a student like me?"
That's what they said, but Hua Yu didn't try to back out at all.
Isn't it just about selecting people?
What's so difficult about that?
"I heard that the Mu family girl seems to be with you," Feng Li probed.
"Don't worry, since you've entrusted this to me, I will definitely help you choose carefully. I won't reject the other two just because of your roommates. Of course, the premise is that you have to accept whatever decision I make in the end," Hua Yu said earnestly.
The choice is definitely Mu Nujiao, but the key is how to convince the other two people. This requires handling things in a respectable way.
In his mind, he already had a general direction.
"No problem at all, I can assure you," Feng Li replied quickly.
He was eager to get rid of this hot potato, so seeing that Hua Yu was willing to agree, Feng Li was willing to accept anything as long as it wasn't an unreasonable condition.
"Alright, then you can wait in the island nation."
After Hua Yu finished speaking, he hung up the phone and then glanced upstairs.
At this time, Mu Nujiao should be cultivating in her room.
Hua Yu stood at the top of the stairs, thought for a moment, and decided not to tell Mu Nujiao the news for the time being.
Her wind element was still a bit lacking, and even with the help of the little green dragon's holy water, she couldn't break through successfully.
Otherwise, if Mu Nujiao were at the high level in both the dual-elemental system, there would be no need for Mu Tingying and Lu Yilin to be involved.
-
in the afternoon.
The magnificent semi-circular building in Shanghai was unusually quiet.
The outstanding substitutes selected from various universities tacitly stopped their training and stepped aside, giving the playing field to the three best among them.
Regardless of their motives, they all hoped that one of the three would succeed.
After all, these three are their hope. If even the strongest among them can't make it into the main team, then what's the point of them staying here and persisting?
"Mu Tingying, Mu Nujiao, and Lu Yilin, come stand here!" Bai Dongwei shouted from the center of the field.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to the two women and the man.
The first person to emerge from the crowd was Mu Tingying. She smiled proudly at everyone, exuding confidence.
In terms of ability, she is not weak!
When it comes to background, she's even stronger!
Mu Tingying felt that if those mentors were even slightly sensible, they would know who among the three should be chosen.
"Phew~"
Mu Nujiao let out a long breath, glanced at Mu Tingying's back, and a hint of fighting spirit flashed in her eyes.
A celestial beauty, yet a war-craved demon!
She remains the same woman, one who is fearless in the face of battle.
Even if Mu Tingying was the strongest in the national team before, so what?
She was fearless!
With each step she took, her high-tied red ponytail swayed back and forth, displaying her pride as well.
"come on."
Dongfang Lie nodded to Mu Nujiao and said in a low voice.
Since they were from the same school, he still preferred to let Mu Nujiao win.
Unlike Mu Tingying and Mu Nujiao, who were both confident, Lu Yilin's expression was not so relaxed.
His steps seemed somewhat heavy.
