Chapter 2198: Chapter 2,089. Retreating in the face of difficulty
Translator: 549690339
“Mm, you are worthy of being taught.”Dao Master Sea Wolf nodded his head lightly.
He looked at Su Yu, then at sword in the stone and star Lady. He couldn’t help but sigh at the huge gap between people.
At the same time, sword in the stone and star lady were far better than Su Yu.
The first two would become Dao Masters in the future. It was almost certain, but Su Yu’s hopes were slim.
“Since the test of strength has been completed, I’ll give you the corresponding positions according to the strength of your strength.”Dao Master Sea Wolf looked at star lady and stone-in-sword with gratification.
It was the fairest way for strength to determine the positions, and he believed that no one would have any objections.
The Heavenly Snow Saberman and poison operator could only be envious. They had thought that they would most likely get the position of deputy chief if they came to seek refuge with the sea wolf pirates.
However, they had never expected that a favored son of heaven like sword in the stone and star lady would come one after the other.
They could only sit at the back and take up the position of branch leader.
Star Lady’s expression was calm, but sword in the stone had a trace of arrogance on his face.
Beep Beep —
At this moment, a series of numbers appeared on the stone tablet.
Dao Master Sea Wolf did not even look at it. He had already assumed that Su Yu’s martial strength was very low and said, “There are two vacancies for deputy chiefs under me. One of them will be taken up by star lady…”
He looked at star lady and frowned slightly. She wasn’t listening to him. Instead, she was staring at the stone tablet without blinking.
She was distracted at such an important occasion.
Even though Dao Master Sea Wolf admired her, he was very displeased. He was about to say something when he suddenly realized that sword in the stone, Heavenly Snow Saberman, poison operator, and the others were all staring at the stone tablet with strange gazes.
Some were confused, some were puzzled, and some were even shocked.
Dao Master Sea Wolf was slightly stunned. He looked at the stone tablet and was immediately stunned. He muttered, “Nineteen thousand?”
He was a little doubtful if he had seen wrongly. He subconsciously looked again. After confirming that it was really nineteen thousand, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Star Lady was such a famous figure in the world, but she was only seven thousand.
What was nineteen thousand?
He had personally set up the space, so he understood the meaning of numbers. It was also the most obvious.
19,000, that was close to the strength of a dao master.
In the entire seven ultimate civilization’s domain, there were almost no half-step dao masters who could reach such a terrifying strength.
Su Yu, who was half-exhausted, could do it?
That was impossible!
His instincts told him that something must have gone wrong in the stone tablet.
“What the hell?”Sword in the stone shook his head. “You can even cheat in such a test?”
There was disappointment in his words toward Dao Master Sea Wolf.
After the Heavenly Snow Saberman and poison operator came back to their senses, they also felt that Su Yu had most likely found some trick.
Otherwise, such a high combat value was too illogical.
Only Star Lady looked at Su Yu and fell into deep thought.
Dao Master Sea Wolf came back to his senses and looked deeply at Su Yu. He frowned and said, “Su Ruchu, can you tell me how you did it?”
Hearing his questioning tone, Su Yu asked in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, “Then, may I ask, leader, apart from Combat Power, did you set up an extra shortcut to clear the level?”
Did he mean that Dao Master Sea Wolf couldn’t even trust the things he set up?
Dao Master Sea Wolf’s gaze deepened a little, and he said, “Of course not!”
Su Yu stood there silently and didn’t say another word.
Dao Master Sea Wolf knew what to do next.
If he denied Su Yu’s martial strength, it was the same as denying himself.
In public, he probably couldn’t wipe away this face.
After a long silence, sect Master Sea Wolf looked at Su Yu with a deep gaze and said, “The second deputy chief, Su Ruchu.”
“Thank you, Chief.”Su Yu cupped his fists and said.
The expressions of the people present were different.
The Heavenly Snow Saberman and poison soothsayer were both envious and lamented. Su Yu was the only one who could cheat to become a deputy chief since ancient times!
After being at a loss, stone sword revealed a deep anger.
A person whom he disdained to look at had actually replaced his position as deputy chief?
The most laughable thing was that the sea wolf sect master recognized the other party’s clearly unreasonable martial strength!
Only star lady gracefully curtsied towards Su Yu. “Deputy chief Su, please take care of me in the future.”
Su Yu’s expression was indifferent. “That’s easy to say!”
Hearing such an impolite tone, everyone secretly criticized him.
Even star Lady couldn’t help but twitch her forehead. She thought to herself, isn’t this Su Ruchu a little too arrogant?
With her strength, other than the Dao Master, who else could take care of her?
Dao Master Sea Wolf’s face was expressionless as he continued, “Sword in the stone, as the First Fleet’s leader, Sky Snow Saberman as the Second Fleet’s leader, and Poison Soothsayer’s Third Fleet’s leader!”
The others were fine, but sword in the stone secretly clenched his fists, his heart filled with unwillingness.
“Alright, everyone, go and rest. Someone will arrange your rooms. After the recruitment is over, I will publicly award you with your identity seals,”sect Master Sea Wolf said.
After everyone left, a bright light flashed, and he immediately checked the stone tablet, trying to find traces of Su Yu cheating.
Under the arrangement of the leader, Su Yu and the others went to their own cabins.
The Cabin Su Yu was in was relatively ordinary, completely unlike the place where a deputy leader should live.
“Deputy leader Su, if you have any orders, you can tell me at any time.”The leader was a beautiful woman with five crowns, and there was a bit of charm between her brows.
She took out the communication jade seal and handed it to Su Yu, then left the cabin with a smile.
With a quick glance, she came to Dao Master Sea Wolf’s cabin and bowed in front of the door. “Reporting to leader, we have already settled Su Ruchu in an ordinary cabin according to your instructions.”
Only people below the rank of chapter leader would live in an ordinary cabin.
Chapter leaders usually lived in high-class cabins.
As for the deputy leader, he should live in a top-grade cabin.
Daoist Master Sea Wolf’s intention to deliberately arrange a cabin for Su Yu that was not even comparable to a chapter leader was self-evident.
“Did he say anything?”Daoist master sea wolf asked thoughtfully as he fumbled around with the stone tablet in the room.
The pretty woman shook her head lightly and said with some regret, “No!”
Daoist Master Sea Wolf’s intention for arranging this was very simple. He hoped that Su Yu would back out of the difficult situation.
If he was indignant because of the bad treatment and made a big fuss, it would be even better. Then, he would have a fair and aboveboard reason to expel Su Yu.
Unfortunately, Su Yu did not.
After a pause, the pretty woman said, “Leader, if you want to expel Su Yu, you only need to move your mouth and he won’t dare to stay, right?”
Dao Master Sea Wolf said indifferently, “Now is the time to recruit people. If I expel a deputy leader for no reason, who do you think would dare to rely on me?”
Hearing this, the pretty woman came to a sudden realization.
If Dao Master Sea Wolf had a bad reputation of not valuing talents and casually expelling people, any ambitious talent would probably choose the other nine pirate leaders instead of him.
“In the next few days, treat him as you should. Don’t let others talk about him. I hope he knows his place and leaves by himself. Don’t take the position of the sword in the stone for nothing,”Dao Master Sea Wolf exhorted.
The pretty woman sighed silently. She thought to herself, if he was Su Yu, he would have left long ago.
Why should he stay here and watch others’expressions?
If he had something to do during the day, he could only do one more shift. Tomorrow, he would have to make up for it at the fifth shift. Tomorrow, he would have to make up for it at eight in the morning. At noon, he would have to make up for it at twelve in the afternoon. Then, he would make up for it at six in the evening.
If his condition this month was really bad, there would always be things like this and that. Starting tomorrow, he would return to normal and try to make it happen a few times next month.
