Chapter 295

"Great! I was wondering why you disappeared after I fell unconscious! So you went to hook up with another woman!" Duan Ling ground her teeth, dangerous light flickering in her eyes.

"I'm wronged, this really didn't happen!" Ye Lin hurriedly explained.

"Then tell me what you went to do?" Duan Ling pursued.

"Uh..." Ye Lin was speechless for a moment. He couldn't just tell Duan Ling that he went to frame Xie Zhanxin and incidentally killed him, right?

"Hmph! Can't say it, right? It's fine, I'll check and know if you hooked up with another woman!" Duan Ling quickly moved close to Ye Lin.

"How to check?"

"Of course, check the ammunition inventory!"

"Right here??? What if someone comes later?"

"It's fine, I'm not taking anything off anyway!"

The morning sun tore through the hazy mist, dyeing the Human Emperor Hall golden yellow.

In front of the Human Emperor Hall, the You Daxia Human Emperor stood with his hands behind his back, standing quietly in front of the hall, majestic yet not lacking in kindness.

Behind him, the deans of various academies were sitting on pins and needles, their expressions different, all full of expectation and worry for the students who were about to return from the Shan Hai Realm.

After all, it wasn't as if students hadn't unfortunately died in the Shan Hai Realm in previous years.

And the calmest dean in the whole venue was definitely Yun Xintong of the Supreme Academy. After all, as the number one all along, Yun Xintong had absolute confidence in Watching Feng Tianyu and the others; the strength of Watching Feng Tianyu and the few was a cliff-level lead.

As long as Watching Feng Tianyu wasn't stupid enough to provoke the people of the five great families, their Supreme Academy team could walk sideways in the Shan Hai Realm.

Everyone waited until noon, with the sun hanging high in the clear sky.

As the Human Emperor spread his hands, a huge portal appeared on the square in front of the Human Emperor Hall.

As the exit of the Shan Hai Realm opened, students began to walk out from the Shan Hai Realm. Their faces were full of exhaustion, and some had not-so-light injuries on their bodies, but they couldn't hide their excitement.

Clearly, the month in the Shan Hai Realm was a rare training experience for them.

The Human Emperor's gaze was like a torch, slowly sweeping over every returning green face, and then he nodded.

"You have done very well, thank you for your hard work. After resting, you can go and hand in the Shan Hai Secret Seals you obtained. I will reward you according to your academy's ranking."

As the Human Emperor raised his hand, a powerful and warm force brushed over everyone like a spring breeze. Under the effect of this force, the injuries and exhaustion on everyone's bodies were greatly relieved in an instant.

The major deans hurriedly ran over to claim their students. These were good seedlings that came out of the Shan Hai Realm; if nothing went wrong, they would definitely become the backbone of You Daxia in the future!

As the teams from the major academies kept walking out of the Shan Hai Realm, the ranking work was also proceeding in an orderly manner.

What made the major deans somewhat strange was that for some reason this year, the number of Shan Hai Secret Seals obtained by each academy was about the same—three for the most, two for the least. They had counted nearly ten academies, and not even one had obtained four.

Soon, Yan Lanbing also saw the You Daxia Academy team. His brows wrinkled slightly, and when he saw that Zhang Xing was missing a finger, his brows furrowed even more.

"Why are there only three of you? Where are Ye Lin and Duan Ling? And, how did you get so disheveled?"

The faces of Hu Baiqing and the three were all very ugly. Hu Baiqing's eyes reddened, and she took the initiative to speak.

"Dean! Please make the decision for us!"

"What happened?" Yan Lanbing pursued.

"After we entered the Shan Hai Realm, Ye Lin and Duan Ling were unwilling to cooperate with us and left the team selfishly. I didn't take it to heart at first, but I didn't expect that after that, we encountered the Supreme Academy team!"

The more Hu Baiqing spoke, the more aggrieved she felt.

"Because we were missing two people, relying only on Zhu Yuquan, Zhang Xing, and myself, we couldn't even escape from the Supreme Academy. This led to Zhu Yuquan and me being severely injured, and Zhu Yuquan was even shaved of a finger by Watching Feng Tianyu of the Supreme Academy! Please, Dean, make the decision for us! Severely punish Ye Lin, the culprit!"

There was no expression on Yan Lanbing's face, and one couldn't tell if he was happy or angry. Then he looked at Zhang Xing and Zhu Yuquan.

"Is the fact the same as what Hu Baiqing said?"

"Ye Lin was indeed very determined to leave the team, but I think... the matter of the Supreme Academy cannot be blamed on Ye Lin; it was we who were too weak." Zhang Xing's eyes were full of hatred. "One day, I will definitely get this account back from Watching Feng Tianyu myself!"

"Hehe, boasting shamelessly."

A mocking voice sounded. Yun Xintong walked over unhurriedly and sized up Hu Baiqing and the three.

"Relying on just the three of you, no matter how many years you work hard, you won't be able to catch up to Watching Feng Tianyu. That is the student with the strongest talent in my Supreme Academy. If hard work were useful, what would we need geniuses for?"

Yun Xintong's words revealed thick sarcasm.

Yan Lanbing raised his eyes and glanced coldly at Yun Xintong, asking.

"Professor Shen of my You Daxia Academy has been quite free lately, but I don't know if the septic tank of your Supreme Academy has been repaired yet?"

Once these words were spoken, Yun Xintong seemed to remember something, and his face turned green instantly.

Yan Lanbing didn't say anything more, but looked at Hu Baiqing and the others.

"How many Shan Hai Secret Seals did you bring out?"

Hu Baiqing and the three all fell silent, and expressions of shame appeared on their faces, because they didn't have a single Shan Hai Secret Seal on them! When Ye Lin gave out the Shan Hai Secret Seals, he deliberately bypassed the three of them, and they couldn't find any themselves.

"Dean... we didn't bring out a single one..." Hu Baiqing hurriedly found an excuse. "After Ye Lin left the team without permission, we were beaten to severe injury, and just recovering from the injuries consumed a lot of our time, which is why we didn't find any Shan Hai Secret Seals!"

Yan Lanbing's face instantly turned even greener than Yun Xintong's.

He had thought that Hu Baiqing and the three were severely injured and the number of Shan Hai Secret Seals they could bring out shouldn't be many, but he hadn't expected that they wouldn't have even one!

Good news: You Daxia Academy is not the ten-thousand-year second place this year.

Bad news: This year, they are the last place!

Yan Lanbing even felt the world go black in front of his eyes. What the Shan Hai Realm decided was the resource allocation for the various academies for the next year!

If they were last place, then many of the resources currently owned by You Daxia Academy would be taken back. Thinking of this, Yan Lanbing nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood!

"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!" Yun Xintong laughed gloatingly. "Zero? Yan Lanbing, your You Daxia Academy is really promising!"

Yun Xintong looked triumphantly at Yan Lanbing, whose face was livid.

"Now the teams from the various academies have all come out, but less than fifty Shan Hai Secret Seals have appeared, which shows that most of them are in the hands of my Supreme Academy. How about this, you beg me, and if you coax me into being happy, I'll share ten Shan Hai Secret Seals with you, how about that?"
