Chapter 213: The Strongest Healer, the Medical Venerable of a Hundred Herbs!
As soon as Ye Lin said this, the expressions of Xie Wangquan, Liu Yutong, and their group instantly turned green.
"Reporting to the official" had already been brought up; what else was there for them to play with!
But thinking of how the Great Xia Academy's Dean, Yan Lanbing, was famously known for being impartial, open, and fair in handling matters, Liu Yutong still braced herself and said to Yan Lanbing.
"Dean! In the Crying Soul Secret Realm, Ye Lin harmed fellow students and colluded with Duan Ling to brutally attack us! Many senior brothers and sisters from the security team can testify. Dean, you must uphold justice for us!"
Liu Yutong spoke with tears in her eyes; it was truly enough to make the listener weep and feel sorrow.
But if she had looked up to see the expression on Yan Lanbing's face, she might have regretted overacting.
One could see that Yan Lanbing's face was currently cold and indifferent, even faintly showing some impatience.
He was just about to build rapport with Ye Lin, to make Ye Lin loyal to Great Xia Academy and become a part of it, but now a whole crowd of people had run out to report Ye Lin. How could Yan Lanbing's expression possibly look good?
"Are you saying that all of you, added together and tied up, still couldn't beat Ye Lin and Duan Ling? And you were almost all killed by them?" Yan Lanbing asked calmly.
"Uh... yes!"
Cold sweat broke out on Liu Yutong's forehead. How was this different from what she had imagined? Shouldn't the Dean be furious upon hearing this?
"Then you still have the face to file a complaint?"
"Bullying the few with the many, and yet with so many of you combined you still couldn't beat the two of them. With this kind of strength, instead of finding ways to improve yourselves, where do you get the face to complain?"
Yan Lanbing questioned them, feeling as if they were iron that could not be forged into steel.
"Could it be that when you graduate from Great Xia Academy in the future and encounter a demonic beast you can't beat, you will also run back to the school to complain to me?"
Yan Lanbing asked three questions in a row, turning the faces of Liu Yutong and her group deathly pale.
At this moment, the other freshmen who were unaware of the truth couldn't help but look at Liu Yutong and the others with disdain.
With so many people combined and they still couldn't beat two, this strength was indeed ridiculously weak. Could it be that these people all entered Great Xia Academy through the back door?
Liu Yutong's eyes darted around, and she hurriedly cried out in grievance.
"Dean! You don't know, that Duan Ling's profession is a Blight Warlock. It was because she poisoned us that we lost to them. Otherwise, in a normal exchange, it would be impossible for so many of us to lose."
With Liu Yutong taking the lead, the others immediately followed suit.
"That's right, that's right! Dean, if it weren't for that Ye Lin using such underhanded methods like poison, how could so many of us have lost?"
"Dean, that Ye Lin is a despicable villain! Not only did he use poison, he also launched a sneak attack! I strongly suggest giving him a major demerit. No! Expulsion! He must be expelled!"
"Dean! Everything we said is true! Please investigate thoroughly!"
Yan Lanbing frowned slightly. Punishing Ye Lin was absolutely impossible, but with so many students making a scene here, not dealing with it wouldn't do either.
Just as Yan Lanbing was in a dilemma, Ye Lin took the initiative to step forward.
"You couldn't win without using poison? Where do you stinking fish and rotten shrimp get your confidence from?"
Hearing Ye Lin call them stinking fish and rotten shrimp, Xie Wangquan and the others were instantly enraged. Just as they were about to speak, Liu Yutong stopped them.
Everyone immediately looked at Liu Yutong. A sharp glint flashed in the depths of her eyes, and then she coldly mocked.
"Ye Lin, you say you can beat us without using poison? What kind of joke are you making? Who do you think you are?"
"Oh? Is that so? Since you all say so, then I can accompany you for another round!"
Ye Lin slowly spread his hands, a faint, confident smile on his face as he spoke.
"To express my respect, I can leave Duan Ling out. Today, let's have a fair duel."
"Good! You said it yourself! You are not allowed to use Duan Ling, and you will face all of us alone! If you lose, I want you to return all the magic crystals to us!"
Liu Yutong spoke extremely fast, fearing Ye Lin would go back on his word, and a smile of success flashed in her eyes.
Ye Lin, oh Ye Lin, you are too arrogant.
Without Duan Ling's toxins, Liu Yutong couldn't imagine what method Ye Lin could possibly have to deal with so many of them.
"Ye Lin, don't be impulsive! Use me! I can do it!" Duan Ling said hurriedly.
"Boss, don't agree to her! She is just a villain filing a complaint first! It was clearly them who gathered to deal with you and even took us hostage! These shameless guys!" Ji Lingyu was filled with righteous indignation.
"No matter!"
Ye Lin shook his head and said very seriously.
"Jade may be shattered, but its whiteness cannot be changed; bamboo may be burned, but its integrity cannot be destroyed! Although I, Ye Lin, am not a big shot, I cannot tolerate my reputation being slandered by villains! Even if there are thousands of people, I shall go; nine deaths and no regrets!"
"Well said! Applaud!"
Clap, clap, clap!
Shen Jingbin, who was on the side, immediately started clapping after hearing this. Finding that no one followed suit, Shen Jingbin widened his eyes.
"Whoever doesn't clap, I'll deal with them!"
As soon as the words fell, thunderous applause instantly erupted in the square.
"Student Ye Lin, are you really going to face so many people alone?" Yan Lanbing asked with some concern.
"Confirmed! Dean, but there is one more thing I would like to confirm with you," Ye Lin said in a deep voice.
"Speak!"
"I have to face so many people alone; this will certainly be an extremely difficult battle! I will inevitably have to go all out. After all, fists and kicks have no eyes, and I'm afraid I might cause irreparable harm to some students..."
Ye Lin had a very hesitant look, appearing as if he were afraid.
"Ye Lin, you can rest assured about that. We are so many people fighting you alone; if there are any injuries, we won't cause you trouble. If you don't believe it, we can sign a life-and-death contract. However, you cannot use forbidden spells!"
Liu Yutong hurriedly added.
"Ye Lin, you also know that forbidden spells cause great harm to your body, and we wouldn't have the heart to see that!"
"Damn! You bitch, do you still have any shame? If you're afraid, just say you're afraid, why say it so high-soundingly! You just wait, if I don't poison you until you're paralyzed in bed and have a house full of descendants, I'll write the name Duan Ling backward!" Duan Ling, on the side, was gnashing her teeth in hatred.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yutong's expression changed instantly. Being targeted by a Blight Warlock was definitely not good news.
But at this point, she could only brace herself and say.
"Student Duan Ling, you are judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's measure. Everyone knows that forbidden spells harm the body. I am just concerned about the health of Ye Lin's classmates. Isn't his eyesight blinded because he cast a forbidden spell?"
"You!"
Duan Ling was so angry she was about to strike, but at this moment Yan Lanbing spoke.
"Enough! Student Ye Lin, rest assured, just go ahead and strike boldly, because today, the strongest healer in Great Xia is also at our academy!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the students of Great Xia Academy were in an uproar.
"The strongest healer in Great Xia? Could it be... that person?"
"Nonsense! Besides him, who else would dare to call themselves the strongest!"
"What are you all talking about? Who exactly is that person?"
"Need you ask? There is only one strongest healer in Great Xia, and that is the Medical Venerable of a Hundred Herbs!"
Amidst the discussions of the crowd, an old man with white hair and beard, dressed in a cyan robe, walked out slowly. A faint medicinal fragrance emanated from his body; just passing by him made one feel refreshed.
"It really is the Medical Venerable of a Hundred Herbs! I've seen his photo on TV!" someone exclaimed, their voice filled with awe.
The strongest in Great Xia!
No matter the profession, as long as one can be crowned with the title of "strongest," it is enough to look down upon everyone.
Don't look at the fact that the healer profession has no combat power; if you offend a top-tier healer, there will be countless top experts willing to take action to eliminate you in exchange for a favor.
After all, who can guarantee that they or their friends and family will never be injured?
A top-tier healer will have countless experts taking the initiative to build a good relationship with them, not to mention an existence like the Medical Venerable of a Hundred Herbs who can truly bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh and bones!
"With this old man here, little student, you can rest easy," the Medical Venerable of a Hundred Herbs said with a chuckle, his words revealing a heartfelt confidence.
"Okay! Many thanks, Medical Venerable! Although this battle will surely be extremely difficult for me, with your words, I am relieved!"
Ye Lin bowed respectfully, then turned to look at Liu Yutong and the others, his fighting spirit soaring.
"All of you, come at me together! Come! Fight me! Do not hold back at all! Even if I am very likely to lose, I will definitely give it my all!"
Liu Yutong and the others looked at each other, and then their eyes became determined.
Without a word, they attacked Ye Lin directly!
In an instant, flames, ice, water curtains, and lightning—all kinds of skills—smashed toward Ye Lin, and those who had changed classes to warriors and assassins also rushed toward Ye Lin from all directions!
Facing the siege of the crowd, a bitter smile appeared on Ye Lin's face.
"As expected, is it still too much to face so many people alone? What a joke... how could I be defeated so easily... don't underestimate the bond between me and the Spear of Imperial Gold, you bastards!"
Ye Lin had no intention of dodging at all. With his hollow eye sockets, he stared persistently and firmly at the crowd rushing toward him, roaring out, word by word.
"COME—OUT—! MY—DIVINE—WEAPON—!"
