2678 Waves Before the Selections!

In an office, a girl with sweet features wearing a double-breasted suit and light makeup told more than ten people sitting around a meeting table, “It’s up to our team to organize the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection. Do not allow yourselves to be slack!

“If anything goes wrong, we won’t be able to answer to the citizens of the Radiance Federation! This is the biggest challenge our team will face since its establishment. It will also be a chance for us to demonstrate our skills.

“All of you are exclusive reporters for the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. You can do what you do best and communicate with the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence that you are in contact with. Do your best to bring up the spirit and enthusiasm of the selections.”

The girl who spoke was Tian Ningning.

Previously, Tian Ningning had insisted on being Black’s exclusive reporter. Later, Black and Lin Yuan were revealed to be the same person. This made Tian Ningning the exclusive reporter of Lin Yuan, who was also the Moon Empress’ disciple.

It was said that even the most mundane people are not excluded from opportunities to ascend. Lin Yuan had not especially promoted Tian Ningning. But this did not stop her from being promoted by Star Web’s managers.

Tian Ningning was also capable enough to handle the responsibility of leading this special team that had been put together by Star Web.

The few tasks that Tian Ningning had already led had been completed extremely well.

“Sister Ning, we won’t have any issues contacting the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. But you will have to be the one to get in contact with Lin Yuan! All eyes are on Lin Yuan for this Radiance Hundred Sequence selection and ranking. Every citizen in the Radiance Federation is looking forward to watching him battle.”

Tian Ningning nodded and said, “I will communicate with Lin Yuan. The rest of you just need to focus on your own tasks. Don’t forget the gravity of this matter. Do not come up with false information for the sake of dramatic effect. I’m sure all of you understand what I’m getting at! If you mess this up, you can leave Star Web of your own accord!”

After she was done relaying instructions and tasks, everyone left until the only one left in the meeting room was Tian Ningning, who was still standing in front of the podium.

She was now part of Star Web’s board of directors. She was also the youngest member.

She was under immense pressure daily. Tian Ningning felt that her promotion was solely due to the fact that she was Lin Yuan’s exclusive reporter. If she could not do a good job, she would be embarrassing him.

Although she did not have any close ties with Lin Yuan in real life, the people on Star Web were not aware of this.

Tian Ningning felt as though the past two years had been a dream.

Black had caught her eye, and she wanted to be his exclusive reporter because she had noticed his potential. Additionally, she admired the spirit he had exhibited when he protected Millstone Town on his own.

The power that Black later showed had shocked Tian Ningning, and she got the feeling that there was more to his background than what met the eye.

However, she never expected Black to turn out to be the Moon Empress, a Class 6 Creation Master’s disciple!

A person like this should be walking around with his chest puffed up with arrogance. But whenever she sent him a message, he was either too busy to respond or was always polite and sincere when he did.

Tian Ningning had not been in contact with Lin Yuan for a very long time.

The Moon Empress had only revealed a very small fraction of Lin Yuan’s contributions to the Radiance Federation. However, this was already enough for many people in the Radiance Federation to address him as ‘Your Excellency’.

Even now, Tian Ningning did not know if Lin Yuan would be participating in the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.

Something like this should seem insignificant to Lin Yuan!

Given Tian Ningning’s status, she did not have the right to obtain a Thoughts Letter Paper. The only way she could contact Lin Yuan was through the phone. If he was not in the Radiance Federation, she would not be able to reach him.

Now that Lin Yuan was back in the Radiance Federation, he still had the habit of using his phone. However, everyone else had become accustomed to using the Thoughts Letter Paper and even used it to arrange meetings.

Thus, Lin Yuan’s phone only rang a few times, and most of these calls had come from the Moon Empress.

Lin Yuan was currently eating lunch. Liu Jie had made a fish stew that really suited Lin Yuan’s tastes.

Because of Epoch God Palace, Lin Yuan had not been able to relax. However, the might demonstrated by the demon insects allowed Lin Yuan to be more at ease, and he finally had a rare moment of rest.

When he picked up the call and saw the caller ID, he could not help but smile and raise an eyebrow. He had been expecting Tian Ningning to call in the next day or two.

Lin Yuan had a very good impression of Lin Yuan.

It was rare for a reporter to not exaggerate or come up with fake news. When Tian Ningning was reporting on him, the duel records she wrote were still very exciting.

She was a large reason why Lin Yuan was able to collect so much faith power early on.

Tian Ningning calling him was also part of her work.

Since Lin Yuan had chosen Tian Ningning to be his exclusive Star Web reporter, it was his responsibility to find work for her.

When he picked up the call, Lin Yuan heard Tian Ningning’s slightly anxious voice on the other end, “Your Excellency, I would just like to confirm if you intend to participate in the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection. If you are, I need to make preparations as soon as possible!”

Lin Yuan was silent for a moment before he replied honestly, “Not only am I going to participate in the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection but also in the Radiance Envoy selection. As my exclusive reporter, you will be busy for some time!”

Tian Ningning was stunned, but she found it difficult to contain her delight. She did not mind being busy. Rather, she was afraid that Lin Yuan would not give her the opportunity to be busy.

Lin Yuan had not fought on Star Web using any of his identities recently. Thus, Tian Ningning had not had much work to do.

If Tian Ningning had not been chosen to become the leader of a special team in Star Web, she would be spending most of her days drinking tea and reading books in her office!

Luckily, exclusive reporters had stable incomes even if they did not have work on their hands.

This was why so many well-known reporters were willing to become exclusive reporters for the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

“Your Excellency, I am now leading a team. If there are any pressing matters to handle, my team can help out! It will be easier for me to make the proper arrangements if I know what is happening over on your end!”

This was the first time that Lin Yuan heard Tian Ningning address him as ‘Your Excellency’. At first, he thought she had misspoken. But when she addressed him like that a second time, he realized that she had not misspoken.

He hurriedly corrected her.

“Big Sister Tian, I am not a member of royalty. I am just an official member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. I won’t be worthy of being addressed like that even if I do become a Radiance Envoy.

“Don’t call me that in the future! I have a few people with me who don’t have exclusive Star Web reporters, but they will be playing large roles in the selections. Big Sister Tian, will your team be able to take on the responsibility of doing publicity for them?”

Tian Ningning knew that Lin Yuan was trying to boost her.

Tian Ningning could guess who Lin Yuan was referring to. It was likely that he was referring to Chief Guard Ye, Chef Supreme, and the Bamboo Monarch’s disciples. They were the only ones whose statuses kept Star Web reporters away.

Otherwise, any young person who was a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence would have throngs of Star Web reporters trying to connect with them.

Even the famous Star Web hosts also had exclusive reporters documenting their dueling records!

If she did a good job of this opportunity, she would become the golden child of all the Star Web reporters.

However, there were only slightly more than ten people in her special team. She could not be certain that there would be enough people to complete this task to perfection.

For the sake of her future, Tian Ningning would not agree to something without full confidence. She had to answer to Lin Yuan, who was the disciple of a member of royalty!

“Lord Lin Yuan, in all honesty, my team isn’t large. With a little more than ten people, we will only be able to follow up on three people at most. How many people do you have in mind, with you included?”

Lin Yuan immediately said, “There are a total of eight of us. Big Sister Tian, why don’t you go and speak to the Star Web officials about this? I believe that they will give you more help!”

Tian Ningning became so excited that she started to shake.

If she brought up this proposal to the Star Web officials, they would never agree.

She might be Lin Yuan’s exclusive reporter, but she had not been able to obtain an interview with him. The higher-ups of Star Web were always displeased at her over this. She was aware of this.

However, given Lin Yuan’s status, the higher-ups of Star Web could not act on their displeasure and still had to provide her with resources.

But this time, Lin Yuan was the one making the proposal. Once she mentioned this, Star Web’s officials would not turn down her request.

Tian Ningning always wanted to witness Lin Yuan’s growth. However, he grew at such an accelerated rate that even the Moon Empress could not track the exact trajectory, much less Tian Ningning!

Lin Yuan was not an ostentatious person. He had made this decision after careful contemplation.

Since he was going to raise the Radiance Federation’s morale, it would be a good idea for the Star Web reporters to release updated reports of the fights.

After hanging up the call, Lin Yuan rested for an entire day in the Return from Faraway Mansion and spent time with all the feys he had contracted.

On the second day, he went with Liu Jie and Wen Yu to the Radiance Sacred Hall.

The Radiance Sacred Hall had already intended on commencing the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection, Radiance Hundred Sequence reranking, Radiance Knight selection, and Radiance Envoy selection.

All the preparations were already complete. Once the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence arrived, this year’s selection would begin immediately.

Normally, the best way to boost the Radiance Federation’s morale would be to prolong the selection period.

However, time was tight, and raising morale was a preliminary goal. They could not afford to waste time!

The Radiance Knight and Radiance Envoy selections would be very formal and official. The Radiance Hundred Sequence selection would be settled with a few dueling stages. This was because not every member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence would need to be challenged.

Liu Wencheng knew that all the attention of the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection would be on Liu Jie, Lin Yuan, Xia Qing, and Long Tao. It was difficult for the others to compete with the four of them.

The format of the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection had changed this year. A live drill would be better than a duel for testing a person’s overall capabilities. Liu Wencheng had designed a similar format for this selection.

Previously, everyone would start off dueling. But once it winnowed down to the top ten, Liu Wencheng would send them into a simulated space in Star Web where they would compete in the wilderness!

There were no other entities in this survival battle. It would only be the top ten members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence battling it out with each other.

The first to die would become Sequence #10, and the subsequent ranks would also be determined in this manner.

Firstly, it was easier to spectate a wilderness survival battle. Secondly, this would be able to test the interpersonal skills of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. There were times when connections were just as effective as power!

After ending the call with Lin Yuan, Tian Ningning went to see the manager of Star Web’s reporters and told him about the call.

The manager immediately held an emergency meeting before assigning four special teams to Tian Ningning.

She could allocate and utilize these teams as she saw fit. It was necessary that she ensured that all eight people’s reports would be done to perfection.

Liu Hao, who was the manager of Star Web’s reporters, had not paid much attention to Tian Ningning.

It was true that she was Lin Yuan’s exclusive reporter. However, he felt that she had asked Lin Yuan for the job.

Liu Hao was good friends with Zuo Ming and learned about Lin Yuan’s character from him. He knew that Lin Yuan did not put on any airs and was respectful towards everyone he met. He did not have any of the arrogance that was usually associated with a young elite.

Hence, Liu Hao believed that if anyone else had asked Lin Yuan for the job, he would also have agreed.

Yet, Lin Yuan had given such a major opportunity to Tian Ningning.

Regardless of whether Lin Yuan thought highly of Tian Ningning’s abilities or because he had connections with her, Liu Hao began taking Tian Ningning seriously!

Not only did Liu Hao assign four special teams to Tian Ningning, but he also joined her to help her manage the tasks. Joining this job would also be an opportunity for him.
