Chapter 282: Shocking the Entire School for a Century
Lu Xun, this grudge cannot be shared under heaven! In this life, I will surely kill you!
As many geniuses were emotionally shattered by the news of Lu Xun,
At the gate of Beidou University, Wang Tengyun, face full of grief and indignation, swore an oath to the heavens.
A few days earlier, he received the news that his family had been nearly wiped out by Lu Xun, the Wang family had been raided by the Martial Manor, and even the Wang family chief had been arrested by the Martial Manor's people.
The reason was colluding with demonic cultivators.
Just thinking about it shows how serious this matter is.
The Wang family chief is unlikely to survive.
Even if he does survive, he will be imprisoned for life.
And he, Wang Tengyun, was also expelled from Beidou University because of this.
Although he had no part in the family's affairs, who let him be a member of the Wang family?
This time, the Wang family chief colluded with demonic cultivators and caused a huge incident in Rong Cheng, nearly trapping over a million people of Rong Cheng.
How could the Martial Manor so easily let Wang Tengyun go?
In fact, Wang Tengyun should still be grateful that the times have improved.
If it were the past, when demonic cultivators ran rampant, the Martial Manor, to save trouble, would likely have disposed of him together.
Now Wang Tengyun has lost his family, been expelled from Beidou University, and his hatred for Lu Xun is overflowing.
Even though he knows Lu Xun's heaven-defying nature, Wang Tengyun's resolve to kill Lu Xun is extraordinarily firm.
But, given his strength, wanting to kill Lu Xun is nearly impossible.
Now he has been expelled from Beidou University, the Wang family has been raided by the Martial Manor, he has lost cultivation resources, and his growth speed will inevitably slow.
Going on like this, he will almost certainly be unable to take revenge.
"This is what you forced me to do."
Wang Tengyun's eyes flickered, and he made a decision.
Wang Tengyun left the Capital City, from the northern mountainous area of the Capital City, and entered the underground.
He passed through some inconspicuous symbols, continually going down the winding, twisting passage.
After a short while, he finally found a cave.
Just as he entered, several yin souls resembling fierce ghosts lunged at him.
"Disciple Wang Tengyun voluntarily joins the Holy Gate!"
Wang Tengyun hardened his heart, knelt down fiercely, offered no resistance, and let several yin souls embrace him, biting and gnawing.
Each bite landed on his soul, causing Wang Tengyun such pain that his teeth were bitten until they bled.
"Enough."
After a full hour, finally, accompanied by a faint sound, those several yin souls withdrew.
At this point, Wang Tengyun was already on the verge of fainting.
He clung on desperately, refusing to let himself faint.
Vaguely, he saw a black shadow in a cloak approaching.
"Do you know that once you join the Holy Gate, you will be a demon for life and can never betray?"
The voice of that black shadow, like a snake's hiss, floated to his ears.
"Disciple knows!"
Wang Tengyun spat out four words from between his teeth.
Having said that, he hurriedly clenched his teeth tightly, for if he didn't, he would faint.
"Good, release your body and mind; I will plant a demon seal deep in your soul... who are you?"
The black shadow said the last words, and its voice suddenly turned harsh.
"Boom!"
"Ah..."
An attack struck it with the speed of thunder before one could cover their ears.
Immediately after, several cultivators rushed out and subdued the black shadow and all the surrounding yin souls.
"How could this..."
Wang Tengyun was dazed.
"You Wang family are indeed not clean; well, this is good, eliminating a future trouble for Lu Xun."
A Martial Manor cultivator glanced at Wang Tengyun, then raised his hand and chopped down, severing his head.
This Wang family genius, who attempted to take revenge via the Holy Gate, that is, the Demon Gate, met his end here, not even leaving a whole corpse.
"President, the matter has been settled; Wang Tengyun indeed knew how to join the Demon Gate. We secretly followed up and beheaded him. As for the Demon Gate's envoy, we have already detained them."
The Capital City Martial Manor's Commander Xu, who had just killed Wang Tengyun, reported to the President.
The Martial Manor's deployment in the Capital City should be a bit higher.
Like Commander Xu, he is merely a minor commander, his strength equivalent to the President of Rong Cheng, and he is at the Six Realms.
The President of the Capital City is at the Seven Realms.
"Well done, inform Commander Wu of Rong Cheng that all members of the Wang family must be exterminated, then issue the announcement to proclaim to the world; this is the fate of colluding with demonic cultivators."
The President said lightly.
"Yes, President."
The fact that Wang Tengyun was expelled is, to Beidou University, basically nothing.
Inside Beidou University, it remains extraordinarily lively.
Over the past few months, the focus of global attention has been in the starry sky.
In the small world of Beidou University, quite a few major events have actually occurred.
For example, the enrollment of the new batch of students.
Although Lan Xing had stepped onto the Ancient Road Node and also encountered a pest disaster, this year's major exam was still not canceled.
Education has always been the top priority, as it concerns the future talent issue of the East.
In the East there are several 'manors'.
Such as Martial Manor, War Manor, Academy, Works Manor, Official Manor, and so on.
Among them, the Academy is specifically responsible for education.
Before this year's major exam, the number of geniuses who had unlocked the Heaven Earth Meridian was even more than last year, with the total exceeding four hundred.
That is over a hundred more.
The reason there are so many geniuses is inseparable from Lan Xing's entry into the Ancient Road Node.
After entering the Ancient Road Node, various resources on Lan Xing became abundant, and the price of Dark Energy also dropped somewhat.
Normally, one unit of Dark Energy costs one thousand Huaxia coins.
Now it can be bought for just over three hundred, making it less than half the price.
The price of Dark Energy itself is not fixed, but is influenced by supply and demand.
Whenever Lan Xing enters the Ancient Road Node, the price of Dark Energy drops and becomes unusually easy to purchase.
If Lan Xing leaves the Ancient Road Node for several years, and the Dark Energy on Lan Xing is mostly consumed, the price will rise and become less easy to purchase.
This year, the Dark Energy distributed by schools to students is also more abundant than in previous years.
All these factors combined have led to this year's prosperity.
Based on past experience, next year will likely be even more.
Only in the year after next will it gradually decline, with numbers slowly returning to normal levels.
But the total number of geniuses will continue to increase.
This is also inevitable in Lan Xing's process of ascending dimensions.
"Wow, only three months into the semester, Huang Yongming has already broken through to the second realm, sixth level."
"That's impressive."
"Li Shanshan isn't bad either; she has already reached the second realm, fifth level."
"There are truly many geniuses this year."
After another monthly exam ended, many freshmen gathered together to discuss this year's geniuses.
Freshman year is always the most passionate time.
They especially like to pay attention to some fresh happenings on campus.
By sophomore year, enthusiasm and interest will wane.
Junior and senior years decline further, until everything is calm and uneventful.
"What's this year compared to last year's senior Lu Xun? That's what a real genius is—he broke through to the third realm in just a few months, and moreover won first place in the secret realm assessment at the end of the term; in the end, guess what—he left the fourth realm of Ten Thousand Willows Academy completely helpless!"
A freshman brought up Lu Xun.
As soon as those two names were mentioned, many freshmen immediately felt that the geniuses of their class were probably just like that.
"What is this? You haven't seen the recent news—senior Lu Xun has killed several Six Realm beings!"
Another freshman, showing off, started talking about a piece of news.
"What?"
"Hiss, Six Realm!"
"How outdated is your news? This matter has already spread all over the campus network!"
Some were surprised, some were dismissive, because he was also one of the first students to know the news.
"What kind of monster is this!"
"With such achievements, in our Beidou University, shouldn't he be the first genius in history?"
The freshmen were all shocked beyond belief.
This news spread through Beidou University like a gust of wind.
It's not their fault for being out of the loop; it's just that there have been too many things happening, all mixed together.
Just like when Yao Xing invaded, the number of monster vines in the Capital City was the highest.
Not only were they numerous, but their strength was also overwhelming.
Just the monster seeds planted by monster‑emperor‑level beings already numbered three.
Although the Capital City ultimately held them back, some basic facilities were also damaged, many areas of the Capital City lost network access, and Beidou University's campus network had only just been restored.
Without the campus network, news naturally spread much more slowly.
Now that the campus network is back up, this news spreads extremely fast.
"What, Lu Xun is that heaven‑defying?!!"
"Hiss!"
"That's the Six Realm, after all—how did Lu Xun manage to do that!"
"Fake, it's all fake."
"We're still playing with mud in the village, and Lu Xun has already built a rocket?"
Instantly, throughout the campus, everywhere could be heard the sound of people sucking in cold air.
I don't know how many students were frightened out of their wits by this news.
They were still scrambling around school like kids playing house, occasionally comparing themselves and fighting with others.
But Lu Xun has already been killing Six Realm beings!
"This..."
After Lin Yan received this news, he was stunned for a long time.
Even having witnessed Lu Xun's monstrous talent all along, he thought there was no way Lu Xun's growth could surprise him.
As a result, this time Lu Xun still left him stunned.
"Hahaha, to shock you to death, Brother Xun this time is sure to shock the entire school for a century!"
Li Bubo laughed hysterically, almost laughing himself to death.
