"Ten million? You're a student, how can you come up with ten million?" Andri's expression clearly showed that he didn't believe Fang Jueyu had that capability. Obviously, this Huaxia student wasn't satisfied with the price. Was he trying to use this method to raise the offer?
"Two million US dollars, I think that's not a low price, right?" Andri said confidently. "I know Jiangnan University is one of the top three schools in Huaxia, but even after graduation, it'd be hard for you to earn that kind of money, right?"
"I think he's got something wrong in his head." Lu Chao pointed at Andri's head. This guy actually talked money in front of the world's richest person. Doesn't he know that Fang Jueyu is the original master of using money to win people over?
"Old Fang, I think you should just buy their school!"
"Old Fang, you must be the worst-off world's richest person!"
"Two million US dollars? That's just insulting me!" Fang Jueyu pulled out his phone and searched up the Forbes list, then opened the information at the top.
"Mr. Andri, take a good look. Do you think I'm someone who'd miss a mere two million US dollars?"
"You..." Andri seemed petrified as if the Petrification Technique had been used on him. He knew that the current world's richest person was a very young Huaxia man, and he knew the man's name was Fang Jueyu.
However, he was just a university professor, and the term 'world's richest person' was far too distant for him. He might never reach such a height in his lifetime, so he only remembered the name and had a vague impression of the person's appearance.
But after becoming a Hidden Elementer, Fang Jueyu's life level went through a qualitative leap; his appearance became more and more perfect, with some subtle changes from his photos.
But upon closer inspection, Andri still recognized him. This was definitely the world's richest person, Fang Jueyu!
"Oh my God, what have I done?" Only now did Andri realize the incredible folly of what he'd just done. He actually tried to throw money at the world's wealthiest person!
A mere two million US dollars, even if multiplied by a hundred, wouldn't even scratch his fortune. And he had put on such a condescending act. In hindsight, it was simply self-humiliation!
"Mr. Andri, honor can't be bought with money. You should save this money for a spontaneous trip to Singapore after tomorrow's competition."
With that, Fang Jueyu and his three teammates, along with Zhuo Shangke, got into the car.
"Old Fang, I was actually really tempted just now!" Chen Feng's chest rose and fell. Although there was a super-rich tycoon worth trillions standing next to him, he couldn't even make two million in his lifetime.
If it weren't for Fang Jueyu, maybe he would have had some frightening thoughts.
"Don't just blame yourself. I was tempted too!" Lu Chao said.
"Hey, don't be so petty!" Fang Jueyu knew that a sum of money really carried a huge temptation for many students. "But Huaxia's honor reigns above all!"
"Don't you guys want to learn my technique? After the competition, I'll take you to a place, and when you return, I guarantee you'll earn far more than this paltry two million US dollars."
Fang Jueyu understood their feelings. They would refuse Andri's demands, but there would certainly be some discomfort in their hearts. This was human nature. After all, they came from ordinary families, and the lure of money was just too powerful.
"Really?" The three of them suddenly had their eyes lit up. They heard about making money, but more importantly, learning Fang Jueyu's technique. If they had this technique, they'd easily become information security directors at any tech company.
"I'll be a dog if I'm deceiving you. I learned my technique from there!" Fang Jueyu said.
"Hey, Fang, why not teach me a trick or two?" Seeing the young people chatting so happily, even Zhuo Shangke couldn't help but jump in.
"Hahaha, Mr. Zhuo, you've aged out of such youthful endeavors. If you have a son, I can set something up for him!"
"You're underestimating seniors. Do you even want to graduate?"
"Do you even want to graduate?" Lu Chao and the others mimicked sarcastically.
Suddenly, the small car was filled with laughter.
"Fang Jueyu! When I ascend the throne, I'll make you my Crown Prince!"
"Jueyu! Where is my son Jueyu? Bring me the enemy general's head!"
"What a lunatic, talking in his sleep in the middle of the night!" Fang Jueyu picked up a pillow and tossed it at Lu Chao's face. "I consider you a brother, and you dream of being my dad?"
It wasn't clear if they were too excited during the day or if Fang Jueyu kept dragging them to learn advanced coding, but Lu Chao was having one of those awful nights.
"Who! Who dares to ambush me!" Lu Chao mumbled, turning over and continuing his deep sleep.
"Hehehe, pretty girl..."
"Well, I guess I should head out. Otherwise, I'll never get a decent rest tonight!" Fang Jueyu sighed. "Really feel sorry for his future wife."
Fang Jueyu put on his clothes, opened the window, and leaped out. He skillfully jumped through the trees and disappeared from the hotel's south exit.
Built by the sea, Fang Jueyu casually found a spot on the rocky shore to sit down. Under the faint starlight, he began practicing the Potential Guiding Technique, never relaxing even though he'd become a Hidden Elementer.
Putting his heart and soul into it, Fang Jueyu seemed to blend into the environment, with the crashing waves, floating seawater, and gentle sea breeze...
"Who'd have thought he'd sneak out alone!" In the shadows, three people in tight uniforms watched Fang Jueyu from a few hundred meters away. "Is there any doubt? He's the guy Brella wants, right?"
"That's right. I've confirmed he's here for the competition, and the organizers have his personal information. He's our target."
"So he's not just an ordinary world's richest person," a youthful voice came from behind a mask. "He's a cultivator of ancient martial arts, isn't he?"
"He should be. Huaxia's superpower users are controlled by the state. Only ancient martial arts cultivators can live normally in the secular world."
"Then there's no problem. The most a twenty-year-old ancient martial arts cultivator can be is at the dark force level, right? Compared to superpower users, even a B-level superpower user might not be beaten. The fact they need us to take action is an honor for him."
"Let's move. Let's grab him quickly and leave. Superpower users in Singapore have already spotted us. There'll be trouble if we stay too long."
"Yeah! Who knew they had an SSS-level superpower user? It's clear that no country's power should be underestimated." The three of them had only An Ke, an SSS-level superpower user, on their side. If they got tangled up, they'd be in big trouble.
The three immediately focused their gaze back on the rock where Fang Jueyu was sitting, but then they hesitated. He was just sitting there with his eyes closed a moment ago. How did he disappear in a blink of an eye?
"Hey, what are you three doing? Sightseeing?"
