Chapter 64
Luo Jun was blasted into charcoal by a bolt of thunder and was subsequently carried away by medical staff.
Since this guy was so ruthless, Ye Lin naturally wouldn't be polite to him either.
This battle ended with Ye Lin's victory, and Ye Lin's score reached 140 points.
This also meant that the final of this year's college entrance examination would be Student Zhuge Ni against Ye Lin, an internal battle of Qingcheng High School.
No matter who wins, the top scorer will be from Qingcheng High School, and Gao Gao Zhenyu has already started popping champagne to celebrate in advance.
And as for who was the least able to accept Luo Jun's defeat, it naturally had to be Principal Su of Yucai High School.
He was grinding his teeth so hard they were about to break, staring fixedly at Ye Lin on the arena.
In order to win, he didn't hesitate to teach Luo Jun a Forbidden Curse, even at the cost of destroying Luo Jun's future.
But even so, he still lost in the end. How could Principal Su accept this?
"I want to report this! I must report this! Ye Lin from Qingcheng High School has committed intentional murder of his opponent! As a level 18 job-changer, using such a powerful Forbidden Curse against a level 14 job-changer—this is murder!" Principal Su stood up and roared.
On the arena, intentional murder of an opponent is absolutely forbidden. Everyone who can enter the arena competition is a heaven-favored child; as long as they grow up, they will all be able to stand on their own.
No matter which one dies, it is a huge loss for Da Xia.
Therefore, the college entrance examination trial has a rule: anyone who causes the death of an opponent will be disqualified, and all their results will be cancelled.
If it were any other time, seeing Luo Jun's dying and miserable state, everyone would surely have been swayed by Principal Su.
But thinking of the ruthlessness with which Luo Jun had just pierced Ye Lin's heart with his spear, everyone's expressions were extremely strange.
If we're talking about intentional murder, Luo Jun's act was the real murder.
If Ye Lin hadn't been a Forbidden Curse Master but another profession, he would have been crippled if not dead.
"If you want to report it, go find the college entrance exam examiners; shouting here is useless." Gao Gao Zhenyu sneered, looking at Principal Su as if he were a clown.
"Gao Gao Zhenyu! You just wait, this isn't over!"
Principal Su gritted his teeth, then turned and left, unwilling to continue watching.
What followed was an internal battle of Qingcheng High School; watching it would only add to his frustration.
"It's a deal, double happiness!"
Gao Gao Zhenyu grinned, the wrinkles on his face smoothing out at this moment.
"I originally thought that an internal battle in the final for our Qingcheng High School was already happy enough, but I didn't expect the eyesore to be sensible enough to leave on his own. This is great!"
Principal Su, who was halfway out, staggered upon hearing this, almost unable to resist turning back to have a fight with Gao Gao Zhenyu.
"Sigh, so tired. Why is the college entrance exam more tiring than fighting Wang Kensen?" Ye Lin whispered to himself as he walked off the arena.
When dealing with Wang Kensen, he could go all out, using as many Forbidden Curses as he wanted.
But on the college entrance exam stage, he was tied up everywhere, afraid of being seen through.
After all, the arena competition is being broadcast live, with countless eyes watching.
Otherwise, with Luo Jun's strength, let alone stabbing himself with one spear, a hundred Luo Juns tied together wouldn't be enough for him to kill.
He still needs to improve his strength as soon as possible. When his strength is high enough one day and he is no longer afraid of others discovering his undying body, he won't have to be so tied up anymore.
Moreover, the last match is against Student Zhuge Ni, which gives Ye Lin an even bigger headache.
He certainly can't just throw a Forbidden Curse at her like he did with Luo Jun; otherwise, if he blasted Student Zhuge Ni into charcoal, Student Zhuge Student Zhuge Qianxing would definitely not let him off.
"Let me think... is there any Forbidden Curse that can be used..."
Ye Lin had a massive headache. He urgently needed a Forbidden Curse that could defeat Student Zhuge Ni without hurting her too badly.
Things like World-Extinguishing Wild Thunder or Karma Fire Burning the Heavens definitely won't work. Such Forbidden Curses can't even be withstood by Luo Jun, a warrior-class professional; a mage like Student Zhuge Ni would definitely die if she even got grazed.
Just when Ye Lin was having a headache, the seventh round, which was the final, also arrived.
However, for this final, in the eyes of many, there was already no suspense.
In the battle with Luo Jun, Ye Lin had already used his actions to explain the terror of a Forbidden Curse Master; Student Zhuge Ni would be finished if she took even one Forbidden Curse.
On the arena, Student Zhuge Ni stood opposite Ye Lin, her beautiful face filled with complexity.
She had just thought that Ye Lin was about to die under Luo Jun's spear, but she didn't expect that Ye Lin would suddenly turn the situation around with the Forbidden Curse "Undying and Indestructible."
With an order from the proctor, this battle that would decide the top scorer of Qingcheng was officially declared started.
But strangely, neither Ye Lin nor Student Zhuge Ni had any intention of moving; both of them just stood blankly in place.
Ye Lin was afraid of accidentally killing Student Zhuge Ni with a Forbidden Curse, while Student Zhuge Ni didn't know what she was thinking.
After a while, Student Zhuge Ni spoke coldly.
"Ye Lin, if you need to rest, I can wait for you to rest enough before making a move. I don't want to take advantage of you."
"No need, you can just make your move."
Ye Lin waved his hand, his face full of distress.
He thought through all the Forbidden Curses he currently knew, and there wasn't a single one he could use.
Forbidden Curses either have no attack power, such as "Dance of the Instant," "Burning Reincarnation," or "Spirits Return to the Afterlife Realm," which have other effects, and as for those with attack power, not a single one has low power.
"Fine! Then don't blame me for being impolite, because I have a reason why I must win!"
A flash of determination crossed Student Zhuge Ni's eyes. Immediately after, she opened her tome and directly cast a skill.
"Explosive Phoenix Fire!"
On the arena, flames instantly rose, turning into balls of fire with terrifying high temperatures, whistling toward Ye Lin.
"Forbidden Curse — Dance of the Instant!"
Facing the incoming fireballs, Ye Lin immediately sacrificed a kidney in exchange for a five-fold agility boost.
Since he couldn't fight, he could only drag it out, dragging it out until Student Zhuge Ni's mana was exhausted.
He only has 140 points now. To enter the Supreme Academy, he must get a full score, which also means he cannot lose this match.
Ye Lin's figure flashed rapidly in the flames, like a ghost shuttling through a sea of fire.
His movements were fast to the extreme, changing positions every moment. Those whistling fireballs could only graze his body every time, but they couldn't touch him at all.
On the arena, flames were raging, but Ye Lin's figure moved through them as freely as flowing water.
This scene made everyone watching marvel. It was simply unbelievable that a Forbidden Curse Master could have such high agility.
But soon, they noticed something wrong.
"Why is Ye Lin only dodging and not attacking? Wouldn't he have won if he used that thunder Forbidden Curse from just now?"
"Maybe that thunder Forbidden Curse consumes too much energy, and Ye Lin can't use it a second time for a while?"
"That must be it, otherwise how else to explain why he's only dodging and not attacking."
"If you ask me, Ye Lin must think Student Zhuge Ni is pretty and has developed a heart of pity, which is why he isn't making a move!"
"Your information is too outdated. I heard from the grapevine that Ye Lin has already been taken as a disciple by Mr. Student Zhuge, and he wants to intentionally let Student Zhuge Ni have the top spot!"
