Chapter 60

Ye Lin was silent.

He hadn't expected that he could get a bye for two rounds in a row.

The crowd watching the college entrance exam live broadcast were also dumbfounded.

They wanted to call Ye Lin the god of drawing lots; the biggest dark horse of this college entrance exam had already appeared.

Not moving his hand once and directly entering the top four was a record unprecedented; as for the future, I'm afraid it would be very difficult to have a successor.

Scaring the opponent to tears in the first round, the opponent directly abstaining in the second and third rounds, getting a bye in the fourth and fifth rounds, even writing a novel wouldn't dare to make it this outrageous.

"Boss, your luck is too good." Ji Lingyu couldn't help but sigh.

"If you like getting a bye, you can get a bye too." Ye Lin said indifferently.

"No, no, no! I don't want it!" Ji Lingyu shook his head repeatedly.

Getting a bye is a good thing, but also a bad thing, because getting a bye doesn't increase points; assuming you get a bye in the fourth round, then in the next round you have to face the strongest six people in this college entrance exam, only by defeating one of them can you get another ten points.

Ye Lin had gotten a bye for a full two rounds, at this time his score was only 130 points, the sixth round was the top four match, and the seventh round was the final.

This also meant that if he wanted to get the full 150 points, he had to win all the next two battles and become the Qingcheng top scholar.

If there wasn't enough strength, the result of getting a bye for two rounds would definitely be going to the top four to send head and give away for free.

"Who is your opponent in the fifth round?" Ye Lin asked.

Ji Lingyu had already obtained a score of 136 points at this moment; with this score, the top universities in the country were already his to choose from, so whether he won or lost in the fifth round had little impact on Ji Lingyu, unless Ji Lingyu wanted to compete for the Qingcheng top scholar.

"Guess?" Ji Lingyu blinked, smiling very lewdly.

Looking at this smile of Ji Lingyu, Ye Lin raised his eyebrows: "It wouldn't be Student Zhuge Ni, right?"

"Boss, you are really smart, you guessed it right away!" Ji Lingyu nodded.

"She is not easy to deal with, if it doesn't work, just abstain." Ye Lin advised.

Although Ji Lingyu's level was one level higher than Student Zhuge Ni's, Ye Lin knew better than anyone how his level came about.

The current Ji Lingyu couldn't perfectly control the power brought by the sudden surge in level, and his profession level was only A-rank, so although Ji Lingyu's level was higher, his winning rate against Student Zhuge Ni was actually very low.

"Abstain? This woman keeps targeting you, if I can't beat her, I have to teach her a lesson, don't worry, Boss!" Ji Lingyu patted his chest and said.

Ye Lin still wanted to say something, when coincidentally at this time, Chief Examiner Lin Yuan's voice sounded.

"Alright, the fifth round of the arena battle is ready to begin, please all examinees go on stage."

"Wait for my good news!" Ji Lingyu gave a thumbs up and walked toward the arena without looking back.

Excluding Ye Lin who got a bye, there were only six examinees left in the fifth round.

And the most eye-catching match was clearly this one between Student Zhuge Ni and Ji Lingyu, at this time both sides had already entered the link of displaying profession and level.

【Student Zhuge Ni, Fire-type Mage, level 14】

【Ji Lingyu, Shadow-Bearing Swordsman, level 15】

This shocking level made countless people gasp; level 14 versus level 15, in previous years, this basically only appeared when competing for the top scholar.

But this year, it hadn't even entered the top four, and a battle of level 14 versus level 15 had already appeared, which made everyone discuss heatedly.

"Shadow-Bearing Swordsman? I remember this is an A-rank profession, right? An A-rank profession, actually able to grind to level 15?"

"Everyone's constitution is different, I once masturbated twenty times in a state of extreme anger."

"You don't know this, right? I saw with my own eyes that that Ye Lin beat the monster until it was crippled, then threw it to this Ji Lingyu to finish off, his level all relied on that Ye Lin to reach such a high level."

"Ah? There is such a good thing? I have a friend who wants to ask, is that Ye Lin still short of a leg-hanging pendant?"

No wonder an A-rank profession could actually grind to level 15, it turned out there was such a trick in it.

On the arena at this time, Student Zhuge Ni looked coldly at Ji Lingyu, her exquisite and beautiful face without any expression.

"Ji Lingyu, I really don't understand what kind of ecstasy soup Ye Lin fed you, that you can follow him like a horse and whip." Student Zhuge Ni said holding the book.

"Don't need you to understand, one boss, one boss for life!"

Clang!

Ji Lingyu pulled out a long sword flashing with cold light, his eyes becoming serious.

"When you one day completely recognize what kind of person Ye Lin is, you will definitely regret it." Student Zhuge Ni shook her head, clearly extremely disdainful of Ji Lingyu's choice.

In her view, Ji Lingyu was just a fool who had been deceived by Ye Lin.

The moment the proctor announced the start of the competition, Student Zhuge Ni directly released a skill.

"Bursting Phoenix Fire!"

The book in her hand lit up, and immediately countless fireballs rose from beside Student Zhuge Ni's graceful curves, smashing toward Ji Lingyu.

The terrifying high temperature caused the temperature of the entire arena to climb constantly, the attack hadn't arrived yet, and sweat beads had already seeped out on Ji Lingyu's forehead.

Ji Lingyu gripped his long sword tightly, his figure flashing like a phantom, he didn't blindly block the fireballs, but cleverly used the edges and corners of the arena to cleverly avoid Student Zhuge Ni's attacks.

The fireballs exploded beside him, flames splashing everywhere, but they could never touch him in the slightest.

"How many times can you dodge?" Student Zhuge Ni flipped the book in her hand calmly.

All the fireballs instantly condensed into a huge wall of fire, rushing toward Ji Lingyu with the momentum of destroying the world.

Facing this kind of indiscriminate attack, Ji Lingyu's eyes condensed, he knew this strike could not be avoided, he had to meet it head-on.

He took a deep breath, the power in his body instantly erupted, the long sword shining with cold light, he slashed a sword toward the incoming wall of fire.

"Sword Skill — Slash!"

Sword Qi crisscrossed, colliding fiercely with the wall of fire in mid-air, emitting a deafening loud noise.

The wall of fire was instantly torn apart by the Sword Qi, turning into countless flowing flames splashing everywhere, like fire lotuses blooming in the air.

Ji Lingyu's figure appeared and disappeared in the firelight, the flowing flames falling on him would immediately burn his skin, but he didn't care at all and rushed toward Student Zhuge Ni.

He knew very well that facing Student Zhuge Ni, who was a fire-type mage, only by fighting at close range could he have a chance of winning.

Student Zhuge Ni saw this, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, she hadn't expected Ji Lingyu to be able to take this powerful attack of hers head-on.

At the same time, a burst of annoyance also rose in her heart.

She was going to defeat Ye Lin to prove herself to her father, if she couldn't even deal with Ji Lingyu, how could she talk about dealing with Ye Lin?

Thinking of this, a sharp look flashed in Student Zhuge Ni's beautiful eyes.

Facing Ji Lingyu who was attacking her, she didn't panic because of this, but responded even more calmly.

The book in her hand flipped again, and arrows of flowing fire rose up, shooting toward Ji Lingyu at extreme speed.

Ji Lingyu's figure was like the wind, quickly shuttling between the flame arrows like a dark shadow; he jumped up from time to time, dived from time to time, cleverly dodging Student Zhuge Ni's attacks.

When encountering arrows he couldn't dodge, Ji Lingyu would wave the long sword in his hand, sending out sharp Sword Qi, directly cutting the flame arrows.

After a few flashes, Ji Lingyu arrived in front of Student Zhuge Ni, successfully closing in!

And at this time, Student Zhuge Ni not only didn't panic, but instead raised a smile, a smile that made Ji Lingyu's heart skip a beat instantly.

The next second, the book in Student Zhuge Ni's hand flipped automatically without wind, flipping pages quickly, and her long hair also flew automatically.

"Red Flame Sea of Fire!"
