Option 1: Assassinate him at midnight, suffocating Wang Yuan with a urea bag. Completion reward: Title 'Urea King', worn effect: Your urea bags will gain the 'Suffocation' effect.
Option 2: Disregard Wang Jue's matter. Completion reward: One gold-grade medicinal herb.
Option 3: Have Wang Jue transfer his family's shares to you, thereby making Wang Yuan back down. Completion reward: 'Violent Sit Kill' skill increased by one.
Option 4: Engage Wang Yuan in a fair match and defeat him. Completion reward: 'Giant Wind Blade' increased by one.
"The solution has arrived, hasn't it?"
Chen Shu smiled slightly, examining the four options back and forth.
"What?"
Wang Jue turned his head, his eyes filled with confusion. Was he talking nonsense again in broad daylight?
Chen Shu ignored him, instead considering the pros and cons of the system's options.
He immediately discarded the first option. For a Dragon Guard to engage in assassination, especially with a urea bag, would bring shame upon the entire Dragon Guard department.
As for the second option, it was clearly not his style, and the reward was too meager.
"Old Wang..."
His eyes darted around as he said, "Is there no possibility that..."
"No!"
Wang Jue directly interrupted Chen Shu. His demeanor and tone indicated that it definitely wouldn't be anything good!
"..."
Chen Shu's mouth twitched slightly. "Can you just transfer all your family's shares to me? Then Wang Yuan wouldn't dare to make a move."
"As expected..."
Wang Jue shook his head and said, "Actually, I agree."
He trusted Chen Shu. Although known as the Southern Jiang Bandit, this guy always only scammed outsiders...
"Then it's settled!"
Chen Shu nodded. The rewards for Option 3 and Option 4 were similar. It was best to avoid a physical confrontation, especially since he wasn't confident of victory against a gold-grade beast tamer.
Wang Jue took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "The problem is, my dad would probably beat me to death for it..."
"It wouldn't be that severe..."
"It would be quite severe!"
Wang Jue stated, "Although Wang Yuan isn't a good person, even if we take a step back, he is surnamed Wang. My dad would rather give the money to him."
"Explain it to your dad and say I'm just keeping it safe, and the money is still yours," Chen Shu suggested, genuinely not having any interest in Wang Jue's assets.
"Brother..."
Wang Jue looked at him seriously and said, "You're the Southern Jiang Bandit."
Despite Chen Shu's astonishing talent and formidable combat power, in the eyes of most people, he was still a bandit, not someone righteous...
"No way..."
Chen Shu's mouth twitched. "You don't even trust my character?"
"..."
Wang Jue remained silent, merely gazing at him with a strange look.
"Alright..."
Chen Shu rubbed his head, deciding not to humiliate himself further.
He sighed and said, "Then we'll have to go with Plan D!"
"What 'd'?"
"The fourth plan!"
"..."
Wang Jue's mouth parted slightly, wondering about this unintelligible foreign tongue...
Chen Shu cleared his throat and said, "If I fight him and win, I believe he won't dare to bother you anymore."
Currently, Wang Jue was a top-four contender in the World Championship and quite famous, but he was still just a silver-grade tamer, and his contracted spirits were primarily supportive.
Wang Yuan wouldn't have any qualms about him. Moreover, he was always arrogant, believing that by the time Wang Jue became a gold-grade, he would already be a king-tier.
As for those who were friendly with Wang Jue, it was likely only Chen Shu and a few others who would always stand by him.
Qin Tian and Liu Feng, though powerful, were merely instructors at the academy.
After they graduated, they probably wouldn't meticulously manage him, as they would have to mentor the next batch of students.
Without considering the academy's strong figures, the person Wang Yuan might worry about the most was probably Chen Shu.
However, Chen Shu, at silver-grade three-star, still couldn't change his objective, as he believed Chen Shu, being merely silver-grade, posed no threat to him, aside from his notoriety.
"Hmm? This could work!"
Wang Jue quickly nodded and said, "Brother, I'm counting on you!"
"So decisive?"
Chen Shu's mouth twitched. "Do you really believe I can fight a gold-grade beast tamer?"
His husky, while powerful and even stronger than ordinary gold-grade contracted spirits, was still inferior to the Space Rabbit and Little Yellow. Defeating a gold-grade beast tamer wouldn't be easy.
"Don't worry, Wang Yuan's contracted spirits..."
At this moment, Wang Jue leaned closer and whispered something.
Instantly, Chen Shu's expression lit up, and he agreed.
The two left arm in arm, walking and laughing.
...
When the two returned to their dormitory, A Liang and Xiao Xing immediately surrounded them.
"Old Wang, are you alright?"
A Liang quickly asked, "Someone dared to make a move on you within the academy?"
"With me here, what could possibly go wrong?"
Chen Shu shrugged and then gave Wang Jue a meaningful glance.
Wang Jue nodded and immediately took out his phone, sending a message to Wang Yuan.
When Wang Yuan received the message, he was stunned, even feeling a hint of mockery.
A silver-grade three-star fighting him, a gold-grade beast tamer? Was this a joke?
He had watched Chen Shu's matches. That husky was indeed comparable to a gold-grade contracted spirit and could fight across ranks, but that was the extent of it.
Chen Shu's other two contracted spirits weren't too strong.
Furthermore, a gold-grade beast tamer had four contracted spirits, which was the biggest advantage!
"He agreed."
Wang Jue raised his eyebrows, a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Good!"
Chen Shu nodded, his eyes darting around. He muttered to himself, "Tomorrow, I'll have to scam some of that guy's money first..."
"Agreed to what?"
A Liang asked, not understanding what the two were talking about.
"Tomorrow, I'm going to beat up a gold-grade beast tamer!"
Chen Shu grinned, his hands already itching for a fight. He had never openly competed with a gold-grade beast tamer before.
"You?!"
A Liang and Xiao Xing exchanged glances, doubt in their eyes.
"Are you giving it away for free?"
A Liang asked, "Are you sure you can win? He wouldn't only have one contracted spirit, would he?"
"How is that possible?! He's a normal gold-grade beast tamer!"
Chen Shu pouted and said, "A beast tamer without contracted spirits is like the weak and the disabled, isn't it? I wouldn't be so unscrupulous!"
"You've done plenty of unscrupulous things, so one or two more wouldn't hurt..."
"..."
Chen Shu shook his head and said, "Remember to come and watch my magnificent display tomorrow!"
"You can really fight?"
A Liang and Xiao Xing exchanged a look. In truth, they were already starting to believe him.
"Absolutely!"
Wang Jue stood beside Chen Shu and then said obsequiously, "Bandit Brother, what do you want to eat? I'll order takeout..."
"Just get me some King Meat, casual."
"No problem!"
"???"
Chen Shu and the others were taken aback, not expecting Wang Jue to agree so readily.
Half an hour later,
Chen Shu stared at the barbecue bibimbap from the 'King Meat Shop', lost in thought...
