Outrageous Summoner - Chapter 27
Chapter 27
After the assessment ended, the examiners’ scores were quickly displayed.
Duan Wu’s performance at number 138 was indeed impressive, and the examiner also gave a high affirmation of his performance with his score. His score was 90 points, and he was already less than 70 points below his next score, with a clear gap in front.
But even so, he was only second.
First place, You Chu, 100 points.
With a 10-point advantage, he steadily rode on Duan Wu.
Duan Wu got 90 points because his strength was worth 90 points.
You Chu got 100 points because the full score was only 100 points.
“So the big shot in No. 139 is called You Chu… Speaking of which, does anyone know who You Chu is?”
“I’ve never heard of it…”
There were not many Summoners in Blue City to begin with, and their circle was not big. If there were any elites, they should have heard about them.
However, most people realized that they had indeed never heard of this name before. “Damn, did You Chu really find a rich woman after he graduated?”
Fatty Yu Huang stared blankly.
Previously, Yu Huang had seen You Chu use his brush as if it was flying when he accepted the assessment. As he listened to the music and drew the Refining Array, he was as relaxed as eating and drinking. Yu Huang wondered if he had misheard the name that the examiner had recited.
Was this still the You Chu he remembered?
How could he take off just like that without any hardware or qualifications?
But now that he saw the results list and the name he was familiar with, he had no choice but to accept this fact.
This kid was ridiculous!
His accompanying companion heard him mutter, “Huh? You know this first place?”
“I know…” Yu Huang was speechless. “He seems to be… my high school classmate. But…”
But his companions did not wait for him to finish his sentence. “Hey, so you know that big shot? Then quickly pull him into our team!”
Yu Huang was speechless.
Little Fatty thought to himself, I want to pull him into the team too, but I already said that the next time…
He really couldn’t bring himself to cozy up to him now…
After the assessment ended and You Chu confirmed his score, he left the hall. He checked the backstage and smiled like an old farmer.
Previously, when he quickly drew the array formation in the examination hall, his reputation soared.
Then, just as the results were announced, the reputation curve welcomed a new peak. It had already risen to 1,500 points again, and the speed of rise was still rising. There was no intention of stopping for the time being.
From the results, his decision to throw in 150 Potential Points was definitely worth it. 150 Potential Points was equivalent to 1,500 Reputation Points. In just a short while, his Reputation Points had already risen to 1,500, and at the current rate, it was unknown how much it would increase.
This was like an investment. It was just that other people invested in money to make money, while You Chu invested in reputation to earn more reputation and achieve a virtuous cycle.
As he thought this, a man approached him.
“Hello, is this Mr. You Chu?”
“Yes.” You Chu turned his head. “You are…?”
“I’m the staff member in charge of the assessment,” the man said politely. “Here’s the thing. Your performance in the assessment just now was very outstanding. The director of the Blue City Summoner Center praised you and wanted to get to know you.
I wonder if you have time now?”
‘The director of the Summoner Centre wants to see me?’
You Chu thought about it, then nodded.
The director was undoubtedly a big shot in Blue City. You Chu’s family lived in Blue City, and their foundation was also here. It was naturally a good thing to be able to talk to such a big shot.
He followed the staff through two corridors to a reception room.
The director of the Blue City Summoner Center was already waiting there.
The director was a kind-looking middle-aged man. When he saw You Chu, he smiled warmly and politely asked his secretary to invite You Chu to sit down.
He first acknowledged You Chu’s performance in the assessment, then asked what state You Chu was in during the assessment, or if he felt anything, and why he chose to draw such a refinement array.
You Chu thought to himself that there was nothing special about it. It was just that the president took an open carriage-his imagination ran wild, and he suddenly drew it on a whim…
‘Of course I can’t say that.’ You Chu simply organized his words.
“It’s that music,” he said. “I can feel it. That’s not just music. There’s some message hidden in it, trying to tell us something.
I simply followed the voice’s guidance and drew the diagram it wanted me to draw.”
You Chu was actually telling the truth. The music was indeed transmitting certain information, and he had indeed followed the guidance of the voice to complete the drawing. However, he had omitted the details of his help during this process.
His answer seemed to be expected by the director. The middle-aged man looked impressed
Then he gestured for his secretary to come forward and handed a tablet computer to You Chu.
You Chu took it and found a card in the flat screen. The design on the card looked a little like a silver-white flute.
The flute was as transparent as crystal and shaped like a soaring dragon.
“The Dragon-Summoning Bone Flute,” the director explained. “It’s a card refined by a top-notch Summoner in our country using materials we collected from the dimensional space, the White Dragon Sanctuary.”
“White Dragon Sanctuary?” You Chu repeated the name.
“That’s right. The White Dragon Sacred Domain is one of the few mid-level dimensional spaces in the country that is in a stable state.”
You Chu wanted to ask if the White Dragon you were talking about had silver hair, blue eyes, and long legs?
“It’s so named because we found traces of a large number of dragons in that dimension. There’s evidence that a very powerful dragon once resided in that space.
It has a body as silver and shiny as crystal and is incomparably destructive. It was once the guardian of that dimension.”
“Was?” You Chu noted the word.
“Because when this realm invaded reality and we controlled this dimension, there were no longer any dragons in it.”
The chief offered You Chu a cigarette, but You Chu tactfully said he didn’t smoke.
“The music you heard when you first took the test was the music from the Dragon-Summoning Bone Flute,” the director said. “The sound of that flute effectively interferes with and suppresses the psychic energy of the Summoner.
Therefore, in many assessments, we use the Dragon Bone Flute to test the strength and control of the candidate’s mental strength.”
The chief paused and tapped his ash into the ashtray on the coffee table.
“But a paper published by a professor at the Star-Tribune University suggests that he believes there is good reason to suggest that the intention of the ‘Dragon Bone Flute’ was not really that.
He assumed the card had been intended to convey certain messages. The music from the bone flute was intended for certain callers with specific talents.
Most people did not have this talent, so their mental strength would be under pressure when they heard the music from the bone flute.
But the professor believes that someone with this gift should, in theory, be able to understand the message the music is sending.”
You Chu understood and pointed at himself. “You mean, I might be…”
“Having the talent mentioned by that professor,” the director said, “is what it looks like to me. After that paper was published, it caused quite a stir in academia.
Because while the professor’s arguments in the text are sound, he hasn’t been able to find a summoner who actually understands the true meaning of the ‘Dragon Bone Flute’ music, so it’s inevitable that they lack conviction.”
He stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray and looked straight at You Chu. “But you understood, right?”
“I don’t know.” You Chu shook his head. “This music only guided me to draw a refining array, but I don’t know what materials are needed next or how to operate it…”
“…I don’t even know what this array is for.”
This was indeed the question that had been bothering him since he left the examination hall.
Previously, every time he spent potential points to learn the formula, the system would directly help him enlighten himself. From the materials needed, the drawing of the array formation, and the operation of the Card Creating Machine, he could directly provide a one-stop service and integrate it at the speed of light.
In the end, when he heard that piece of music in the examination hall this time, he used up more 150 potential points than when he learned the formula previously. However, You Chu only seemed to have learned this one refinement array.
But logically speaking, drawing an array formation should only be the beginning of a card making process. With only one array formation, nothing could be done.

“But in any case, you’re the first person to understand the music of the ‘Dragon Bone Flute.’ That makes you the closest person to cracking the secret of the White Dragon Sanctuary space.”
The chief spoke earnestly.
“You may not yet understand what that means-it means that you are suddenly important in academic circles.
It’s very important for the state to crack a mid-level alternate dimension. For you, it also means more attention and more resources.
If I’m right, someone in charge of that area should contact you soon to talk about it.”
More attention and more resources were automatically converted by You Chu into more reputation points and more money…
“But that’s for later,” the director said. “As director of the Blue City Summoner Society, I’m extremely happy to see a promising young man like you in our city. I’m also very happy to be able to help you in any way I can in your path of growth.
So I’m chatting with you today, mainly because I have a proposition.”
He paused.
“Do you want to join Blue City’s Sorcerer’s Star cultivation program?”
