Chapter 67

~8 min read 1,481 words

As soon as Su Chengxin said this, whether it was Ye Lin, the person involved, or Wei Benlu, or everyone watching the live broadcast, they were all stunned on the spot.

What does that mean?

Although the Supreme Academy sounds incredibly awesome, it shouldn't be so snobbish that it looks down on the top scholar of a city, right?

Even the brows under Student Zhuge Qianxing's gold-rimmed glasses frowned slightly; he had vaguely guessed something.

And the expressions of Lin Yuan and the other examiners showed no shock at all, clearly having known long ago that Su Chengxin didn't think much of Ye Lin.

"Why?" Ye Lin couldn't help but ask.

A perfect score of 150, plus the Qingcheng top spot, with these two prerequisites, the Supreme Academy shouldn't reject him no matter what.

"You also know that your profession is a Forbidden Spellcaster."

Su Chengxin's tone was very cold.

"The profession of Forbidden Spellcaster has appeared eleven times since the existence of class-changers. The average lifespan of these eleven people is 22 years old, and the longest-lived one among them lived to 24 years and 10 months."

"This also means that you have no value to be cultivated at all. Your current strength is exchanged by overdrawing your future and life force. Pouring resources into you is like throwing money into the sea; it cannot generate any value."

"Don't blame me for being blunt, but this is the fact."

As soon as Su Chengxin finished speaking, many people watching the live broadcast fell into deep thought.

They had to admit that although Su Chengxin's words were unpleasant, what she said was indeed very reasonable.

The short lifespan of Forbidden Spellcasters is known to everyone.

A university will cultivate a class-changer for four years. Ye Lin is 18 years old now, and he will be exactly 22 when he graduates, while the average lifespan of a Forbidden Spellcaster is also 22.

This also means that Ye Lin will likely pass away on the spot as soon as he graduates.

Wouldn't the resources poured into cultivating him over these four years be a waste of effort?

After figuring this out, everyone also understood why Su Chengxin would refuse to admit Ye Lin. For a moment, the look they gave Ye Lin also added a touch of pity.

What a dazzling new star, it's just a pity that it won't shine for long before it falls.

"I understand." Ye Lin nodded calmly.

Although he was a bit disappointed, it wasn't a big deal. He had already tried his best to fight for it; if Su Chengxin didn't think much of him, there was nothing he could do.

He couldn't just tell Su Chengxin in front of everyone that he was actually immortal, right?

If he did that, he probably wouldn't be entering the Supreme Academy, but some laboratory research institute instead.

Just at this moment, a figure appeared beside Ye Lin. The person was wearing a windbreaker, gold-rimmed glasses, and had a scholarly temperament; it was Student Zhuge Qianxing.

Seeing Student Zhuge Qianxing break into the examination hall without permission, Lin Yuan and the other examiners frowned, but didn't say much.

After all, the name of Mr. Student Zhuge was like thunder to their ears, and at this time the college entrance examination trial had already ended, so Student Zhuge Qianxing breaking in wouldn't affect anything, so they just turned a blind eye.

It was Su Chengxin who, upon seeing Student Zhuge Qianxing, had her eyes become incomparably complex, and Student Zhuge Qianxing's expression was also a bit unnatural; the two seemed to be old acquaintances.

"Teacher Su, the problem you are worried about, perhaps I have already solved it."

Student Zhuge Qianxing pushed his glasses, and his warm hand was placed on Ye Lin's shoulder.

In an instant, a force of starlight poured into Ye Lin's body, wreaking havoc inside him. Ye Lin endured it silently without a word; even if Student Zhuge Qianxing wanted to harm him, he wouldn't do it in front of everyone.

"Ye Lin is my disciple. I have researched a method that can significantly reduce the impact of casting forbidden spells on the Forbidden Spellcaster themselves. If you don't believe it, you can take Ye Lin to have his body checked and you will know." Student Zhuge Qianxing said.

As soon as he finished speaking, many people watching the live broadcast had their faces change wildly, and the look some Qingcheng big shots with daughters gave Student Zhuge Qianxing became even more fanatical.

There were indeed rumors before that Mr. Student Zhuge had taken a disciple.

Now that Student Zhuge Qianxing admitted it himself in front of everyone, it undoubtedly confirmed Ye Lin's identity as his disciple.

Ye Lin's heart was also filled with emotion; Student Zhuge Qianxing was undoubtedly taking all the attention onto himself.

As time passed, the fact that he, a Forbidden Spellcaster, was full of vigor would definitely arouse the suspicion of those with ulterior motives.

Student Zhuge Qianxing saying these words in front of everyone was undoubtedly protecting him behind his back, pushing himself to the forefront; others would only suspect Student Zhuge Qianxing.

The eyes of Lin Yuan and the others also became hot.

If Student Zhuge Qianxing could really reduce the impact of casting forbidden spells on the Forbidden Spellcaster, then Ye Lin would really become a star of tomorrow!

Not to mention anything else, as long as he could live to 30, the situation would be completely different. A Forbidden Spellcaster with 8 more years of life would be enough to make countless people wary.

Only Su Chengxin's expression remained unchanged, and her gaze became even colder.

"Mr. Student Zhuge, you are indeed good at astrology and divination, but when it comes to the research and understanding of class-changers, can you be as proficient as the professors of my Supreme Academy?"

"Even things that the professors of the Supreme Academy haven't been able to research, you can? Do you think I will believe it? You want me to cultivate a Forbidden Spellcaster with empty words; what if he still doesn't live past 25? Will you compensate for the lost resources?"

Facing Su Chengxin's aggressive questioning, Student Zhuge Qianxing frowned slightly, then sighed.

"Chengxin, can you not bring personal emotions into this? I am very seriously discussing this matter with you. You just need to check Ye Lin's body, won't you know everything?"

He had just damaged Ye Lin's body to just the right degree; Student Zhuge Qianxing was confident that deceiving Su Chengxin would definitely not be a problem.

"Mr. Student Zhuge, I am not bringing personal emotions into this; I am also very seriously talking to you about this matter." Su Chengxin had a face full of coldness.

At this time, countless people's eyes were flashing with the light of gossip; no matter how stupid they were, they could see that there was a story between Student Zhuge Qianxing and Su Chengxin!

"Our Supreme Academy will not recruit a Forbidden Spellcaster. Mr. Student Zhuge, please stop pestering us." Su Chengxin said coldly.

Student Zhuge Qianxing frowned helplessly.

He could see that Su Chengxin was now determined to refuse to admit Ye Lin.

"Forget it, Teacher, if I can't go to the Supreme Academy, then I won't go. I don't care; it's just an academy." Ye Lin didn't want to see Student Zhuge Qianxing in a difficult position, so he took the initiative to say.

At this time, a mocking and teasing voice suddenly rang out.

"What a big tone, just an academy?"

As soon as the voice fell, the cameraman very professionally aimed the camera at the source of the voice.

Only to see a young man dressed in white robes walking over slowly, with a mocking smile on his face. His gaze swept over Ye Lin, carrying a trace of disdain.

The corners of his mouth curled into a cold sneer, then he stepped out violently, and a powerful aura erupted instantly, rushing directly toward Ye Lin.

Ye Lin only felt a huge force instantly collide with his body, and his whole person was like being struck by lightning; the blood in his body churned, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

He could clearly feel that the strength of this young man in front of him was not even weaker than Kensen!

"Hmph, just a Forbidden Spellcaster, nothing but a flash in the pan, and you dare to talk big here? You won a top spot and don't know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth? Those who can enter the Supreme Academy, which one of them isn't a top-scholar material?"

The young man sneered repeatedly.

"Remember, the one who defeated you is Yun Guanlou, a freshman at the Supreme Academy, oh, about to be a sophomore."
