Chapter 774 Strength Test
In the CEO’s office of the Qin Group, Lu Yu suddenly felt an invisible force enveloping his surroundings.
This was mental power, and Lu Yu could barely sense it. After all, his mental defenses were not strong.
The office door was pushed open, and Han Xuefei walked in quickly.
“Can you sense where that person is?” Lu Yu quickly asked.
Han Xuefei shook her head. “That person was just scouting you out, and he didn’t do much. I think he’ll be more cautious now after seeing your reaction.”
Lu Yu could not help but sigh. “It won’t be easy to catch this guy.”
Tang Lina stood beside Lu Yu and said, “Don’t worry. He will make a move on you sooner or later when his mission is to mess up the rear, especially the Qin Group.”
“However, now that you’re in charge of Qin’s Group, it’s equivalent to you being the captain of this ship. If he wants to mess with the Qin family, he can’t avoid dealing with you.’ Lu Yu smacked his lips. “Why do I feel like I’m being used as bait?”
“You can say that. However, as long as we can catch that guy, all our troubles will disappear.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “He’s in the dark now, and we’re in the open. Doesn’t that mean we must wait for him to make the first move?”
“In that case, I’ll be the CEO I need to be and wait for the enemy’s action.”
Lu Yu looked at Tang Lina and asked, “What does a CEO do?”
“You don’t have to do anything; leave the operation of the company to me for the time being. However, I will state that everything I do is entirely at your discretion.”
“I understand. It’s to tell the outside world that the company is under my control, right? If they want to seize control of the company, they have to target me first.”
Tang Lina nodded happily. “That’s right; you’ve summarized it very well. In the meanwhile, you can do whatever you want.’ Lu Yu looked at Han Xuefei, stood up, and walked to her side.
“Can you still sense that person’s energy?”
“He has already retracted his mental power, but he is definitely still in this company building. It will be difficult to find him, even after knowing that.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly and walked toward the door.
“It seems there won’t be any movements for the time being. Well then, let’s find something else to do.”
After that, Lu Yu suddenly remembered that he had not gauged his strength for quite some time.
All this time, he had been judging his strength level through combat, and these results were all approximate.
Since his main combat power now depended on the Water Spirit Dragon, Lu Yu no longer had a clear understanding of his own strength. “Is there a device here to test my strength?”
Tang Lina quickly nodded. “It’s in the huge cultivation center in Central City. That’s a place to test one’s strength, as well as paths to various dungeons and training rooms.”
“Sounds good. We’ll go over there for now. Call me if there’s any situation here.”
Tang Lina nodded slightly. “I won’t send you off then. I still have to continue with my work at the company.”
Lu Yu and Han Xuefei left the office.
Exiting the building’s entrance, Lu Yu went to the parking lot. He finally had his own car after joining the Qin Group.
Autonomous vehicles were everywhere in a city with advanced technology like Central City.
His position as CEO also allowed him to be assigned an incredibly luxurious car.
After getting into the car, Lu Yu set the destination on the control screen and waited for the car to drive itself.
Very quickly, they arrived at the cultivation center in Central City. From the outside, the building looked like a gymnasium.
After getting out of the car, they entered the cultivation center together.
The space here was vast and was divided into several areas. Some areas were for cultivators’ missions, some were for teleportation gates to enter the dungeons, and some were cultivation grounds that were professionally arranged. The flow of people was packed. People came and went, and everyone was occupied. Lu Yu and Han Xuefei passed through the crowd and soon arrived at a testing area. A row of testing machines was placed there, and they could quickly test their strength after entering.
Each machine needed a person to purchase a test qualification before using it.
Lu Yu went to the counter beside him and looked at the receptionist. He said, “I want to test my strength.”
“No problem; please swipe your card here.”
Lu Yu took out the bank card that Qin Yang gave him and swiped it on the counter. Very quickly, the payment was completed. The price for testing strength was not expensive- only a few thousand dollars.
After getting a card as the testing qualification, Lu Yu walked toward the testing machine.
At this moment, a few young people stood beside the machine. When they saw Lu Yu, they could not help but smile.
“Brother, is there a need for you to take the test? Why are you wasting your money here?”
One of them looked at Lu Yu and asked with a smile. Lu Yu was surprised. He looked down and saw that he was wearing a formal suit because he had to attend his inauguration ceremony. In the eyes of others, most office workers were ordinary people without any ability. They would not stay in a caged company building if they could be cultivators. White-collar workers were either barely talented or completely untalented, so they had to be honest company employees.
“Can’t I test my strength?”
Lu Yu asked.
The man shrugged. “Of course, you can.
Anyone can use these machines.”
“But I’m just curious, why did you come to take the test? You probably haven’t cultivated before, right?”
The man sized up Lu Yu and saw that Lu Yu was a young office worker. Therefore, he judged that Lu Yu had no time to cultivate and was barely a cultivator.
In the eyes of these people, Lu Yu was just an ordinary person, and this cultivation center was not a place for people like them.
Lu Yu walked toward the machine. “There’s no need for your concern. Cultivate well, especially when your strength is far inferior to mine.”
Lu Yu then walked towards the machine. In front of him was a capsule-shaped machine. As Lu Yu placed his card on the machine’s scanner, the machine automatically opened its door. Just as Lu Yu was about to walk in, someone stopped him.
The person just now reached out and placed his hand on Lu Yu’s arm.
“What did you just say—our strength is inferior to yours? Are you kidding me? You looking down on us?”
“That’s right. No matter how weak we are, we can’t be inferior to an office worker. What nonsense are you talking about?”
“Sigh, let’s not waste time talking with this guy. Let him test his strength, and we will know who’s stronger!’ The group leader let go and watched Lu Yu walk into the machine.
“This is the first time I, Hu Dao, have met such an arrogant person. I can’t wait to see what ability he has to utter such words!”
