I thought of something funny; my wife is about to give birth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My wife is too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a coincidence, my wife is too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Yan Lanbing couldn't help but let out a snort of laughter, but fortunately, his ability to maintain composure was extremely high; after pretending to cough twice, he quickly restrained his smile and resumed his look of indifference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now... Professor, this matter hasn't reached the point where you need to take action, don't be so anxious,\" Yan Lanbing said, attempting to persuade him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dean, even you don't trust me?\" the old professor asked, looking at Yan Lanbing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Professor... stop making a scene. Can you even beat him? A madman doesn't know how to hold back when he hits people,\" Yan Lanbing couldn't help but say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Yan Lanbing said this, many more high-level staff couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the old professor could no longer hold back, shouting in anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to challenge him to a duel!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several colleagues nearby hurriedly grabbed him and pulled him out of the monitoring room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, forget it, forget it, forget it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm going to fight him to the death; I won't let him off!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the monitoring room, the old professor’s voice could still be heard continuously from outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Professor Shen,\" Yan Lanbing looked at Shen Jingbin, his expression turning serious. \"Regarding Ye Lin, it was the academy's oversight. As Dean, this is my dereliction of duty. I apologize to you; I am sorry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Yan Lanbing bowed to Shen Jingbin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, the matter of Ye Lin is indeed of great importance. How about this: why don't we wait until the Crying Soul Secret Realm ends and hear Ye Lin's own opinion? No matter what choice he makes, I ask that you, Professor Shen, do not take any irrational actions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine! I like the sound of that! Then we'll listen to his opinion. If he dislikes me, I won't say a word and will leave immediately!\" Shen Jingbin nodded without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Lanbing revealed a confident smile. In his view, Ye Lin must have chosen Shen Jingbin as his mentor only because he had no other choice. He was confident that if Ye Lin were given another chance to choose, he would absolutely not repeat the same mistake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Forbidden Spellcaster with astonishing power was enough to attract a scramble from all the professors and teachers at the Great Xia Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Supreme Academy, upon learning this intelligence, would send people specifically to win Ye Lin over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin, inside the Crying Soul Secret Realm, did not know that the professors of Great Xia Academy outside were almost fighting over him; at this moment, he was fishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was a kind-hearted person with a saintly nature; doing something as immoral as snatching magic crystals from others without a word was something Ye Lin could never bring himself to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, after finding a team, he pretended to have been separated from his own group and deliberately walked past them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people in that team looked at Ye Lin with vigilance, but upon discovering that Ye Lin was alone, they breathed a sigh of relief and didn't take him seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that he had successfully attracted their attention, Ye Lin tripped his left foot with his right and fell to the ground with an \"oops.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the moment he fell to the ground, seven or eight crystal-clear magic crystals fell from his person, scattering all over the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To fish, one must first bait the hole; Ye Lin understood this principle very well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The alluring luster emitted by the magic crystals instantly attracted the gaze of everyone in that team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh no! My magic crystals! My magic crystals! These were obtained by my teammates risking their lives!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Ye Lin began to grope around on the ground, simultaneously raising his head to let the people in the team see his blind eyes clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, the breathing of several people in that team became rapid in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blind, separated from his teammates, and carrying seven or eight magic crystals—to them, the temptation was simply too great!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was like being in a room alone with a completely amnesiac Liu Yifei; if she looked at you with clear, ignorant eyes and asked who you were to her, how would you answer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few people in the team exchanged glances, then walked toward Ye Lin together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Student, are you okay? Don't be afraid, we'll help you pick them up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few picked up the magic crystals, then picked up stones of similar size and shape and stuffed them into Ye Lin's hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, thank you, students! You are truly good people!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Ye Lin's sincere gratitude, the few felt a bit guilty and uneasy, but under the temptation of the magic crystals, this guilt was soon cast to the back of their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, one had to risk life and limb to hunt a Soul-Devouring Magic Beast to get a single magic crystal, but now, one only had to abandon their conscience to get seven or eight; in that case, conscience was not worth keeping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's nothing, we're all students; helping each other is only right. Take care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the few spoke, they prepared to send Ye Lin away, but Ye Lin's footsteps suddenly paused, and he exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's not right! This texture... these aren't magic crystals, these are stones! Did you swap my magic crystals?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin wore a face of grief and indignation, as if he had suffered a great injustice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You blind fool, what nonsense are you spouting? When did we swap your magic crystals? Don't you dare make false accusations! Be careful, or I'll sue you for slander!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly! I saw it clearly; what you dropped just now was a pile of stones, where were there any magic crystals?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We helped you out of kindness, and you frame us! Truly, no good deed goes unpunished. Get lost quickly, or don't blame me for being impolite!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few scolded him, clearly intending to occupy the magic crystals that had fallen from Ye Lin. Ye Lin was filled with grief and indignation, pointing at them and cursing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are a bunch of robbers! You would even scam a blind person like me; you have no humanity! You are so wicked that your parents will surely stick to the pot when they are cremated!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that Ye Lin still dared to curse them, the expressions of the few turned cold instantly, a cold glint flashing in the depths of their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Robbers, are we? We'll show you right now what real robbers are! Do it! Strip him bare; he might still have magic crystals on him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Lin's expression changed, and a look of terror appeared on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing? Don't come over here! Your safety officer has a camera on their chest! If you mess around, I'll go to the academy and report you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once these words were spoken, the few indeed looked at each other, becoming somewhat wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the safety officer of their group smiled faintly, then very cooperatively turned around and pointed the camera in another direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The better the results his group achieved, the more rewards he, the safety officer, would receive; naturally, he would not stop the few from robbing Ye Lin of his magic crystals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehehe, you blind fool, this time you really have nowhere to turn for help!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five members of the group rubbed their hands and fists, slowly closing in on Ye Lin. Ye Lin was so frightened his face turned deathly pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! Don't come over! Don't come over! You've already taken my magic crystals, and you still want to lay hands on me? You are too much!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Ye Lin's accusation, the leader sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too much? Hmph! Survival of the fittest is the natural order; the weak are born to be humiliated and plundered by the strong! If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too weak!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1402,"2026-06-21T02:52:47.916Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","1d5a4faaa56d25b7a886e29efc784f0f3130876540eb27b73af65596a5ecdc1f","forbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-chapter-184","forbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-chapter-182",847,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fforbidden-spellcasters-have-short-lives-i-have-a-cover.jpg"]
