Chapter 68

~7 min read 1,385 words

Silence.

Whether it was the Bluestone Square or the people of Qingcheng watching the live broadcast, at this moment, it was silent.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and the light of surprise flashed in the depths of their eyes.

Just now they only heard the host Wei Benlu say how strong the Supreme Academy was, but they didn't have a concrete concept.

But when Yun Guanlou made a move and beat Ye Lin to spit blood with one strike, they finally understood what a terrifying place the Supreme Academy was.

You must know, Yun Guanlou was just about to be a sophomore, which also meant that he had only studied at the Supreme Academy for one year.

And Ye Lin? The top scholar of this year's Qingcheng college entrance examination! The strongest person in all of Qingcheng, and a Forbidden Spellcaster at that.

Even so, in front of Yun Guanlou, Ye Lin was beaten to cough blood with one strike.

Too terrifying!

No wonder Zhuge Qianxing didn't hesitate to come forward personally to send Ye Lin into the Supreme Academy.

In many academies, junior or even senior students didn't have such terrifying strength as Yun Guanlou.

A good academy can definitely determine the future of a class-changer.

"Yun Guanlou, if you dare to hurt people without permission again, I will punish you by making you write a review when we go back!" Su Chengxin said pretentiously.

"Got it, Teacher Su, I didn't mean to hurt him; I just wanted to say hello to him, who knew he was so weak?" Yun Guanlou chuckled, not taking Ye Lin seriously at all.

Ye Lin climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood stains from the corners of his mouth, and looked at Yun Guanlou calmly.

If he didn't care about anything and went all out, it was hard to say who would win between him and Yun Guanlou, but as of now, he was indeed no match for Yun Guanlou.

Seeing Ye Lin still daring to look at him, Yun Guanlou's eyes grew colder, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

"What? Not convinced? If you're not convinced, you are welcome to challenge me at any time."

"I will. I will keep today's matter in mind, Ye Lin." Ye Lin said.

"Hahahaha! Just a piece of trash, I humored you with two sentences and you actually took it seriously? You will never have a chance to beat me in your life, you idiot!"

Yun Guanlou laughed disdainfully.

"Is your confidence that Zhuge Qianxing? You are just a frog in a well; in Qingcheng, some people respect him and call him Mr. Zhuge, but looking at the whole Da Xia, he's nothing!"

Su Chengxin refused to admit Ye Lin, which meant he couldn't enter the Supreme Academy, and no matter which other academy Ye Lin went to, he couldn't catch up to him who was in the Supreme Academy.

As a student of the Supreme Academy, Yun Guanlou knew too well the gap between the Supreme Academy and those ordinary academies; whether it was the resources possessed or the teaching staff, they were not comparable to ordinary academies.

"Since you are so confident, let's make a bet, how about it?" Ye Lin asked very calmly.

Yun Guanlou insulted him, he didn't care much, but Yun Guanlou insulted Zhuge Qianxing, which had already touched Ye Lin's bottom line.

"Oh? Bet on what?" Yun Guanlou became interested.

"One year later, I will go to the Supreme Academy to challenge you, to see if the students of the Supreme Academy are really invincible." Ye Lin said.

"You really dare to challenge me? Hahahaha." Yun Guanlou laughed until tears came out, looking at Ye Lin as if he were looking at a clown.

"Yes, we will decide the winner, and also decide life and death." Ye Lin said seriously.

As soon as these words came out, not only was Yun Guanlou stunned, but the others were also in an uproar; this was a life-and-death contract!

Everyone knew how terrifying a Forbidden Spellcaster could be when they fought for their lives.

"Ye Lin, don't be impulsive!" Zhuge Qianxing hurriedly held Ye Lin back.

Although Yun Guanlou was arrogant, he did have the capital to be arrogant; this guy's level was already close to level 45, and in another year, it wouldn't be impossible for him to break through level 50 and approach level 60.

"Don't worry, Teacher, I'm not being impulsive." Ye Lin gave Zhuge Qianxing a reassuring look.

Zhuge Qianxing frowned; he wasn't worried that Ye Lin would lose, but worried that Ye Lin would accidentally expose the secret of his immortality.

"Decide the winner, and decide life and death?" Yun Guanlou grinned, his expression also becoming serious. "Fine! This bet, I, Yun Guanlou, accept it!"

This scene was also recorded by the live broadcast.

The people of Qingcheng were all shocked; they hadn't expected Ye Lin to be so bold as to dare to set a life-and-death contract with Yun Guanlou.

Now Yun Guanlou could defeat him with one strike, and in a year Yun Guanlou would only be more powerful; where on earth did he get his confidence?

"Since Teacher Su insists on refusing to admit Ye Lin, then I won't bother you anymore, goodbye."

Zhuge Qianxing didn't say anything more, called Zhuge Ni and Ye Lin, and prepared to leave.

"Zhuge Qianxing! Do you have nothing else to say to me?" Su Chengxin said through gritted teeth.

"No."

Zhuge Qianxing didn't look back, his expression unchanged.

Su Chengxin's face turned pale suddenly.

Watching this scene, Ye Lin followed Zhuge Qianxing silently, but his heart was itching like it was being scratched by a cat.

The relationship between Zhuge Qianxing and Su Chengxin definitely wasn't simple; what exactly was the relationship between these two?

Zhuge Ni also rarely didn't find trouble for Ye Lin, also silently following Zhuge Qianxing, because she also wanted to know!

Girls' curiosity about gossip is clearly greater than boys'.

Returning to Qingcheng, Ye Lin just wanted to ask what was going on, when a burst of cheers rang out.

He looked up and saw Gao Zhenyu leading the teachers and students of Qingcheng High School rushing toward him, his face full of excitement.

"Our top scholar is back!"

"I saw this kid was capable since he was small! Taking a loan to change jobs, who else would dare to do that?"

"My Qingcheng High School has finally produced a top scholar!"

Ye Lin was surrounded in the center, and then the excited teachers and students lifted him up and threw him into the air.

"Top scholar!"

"Top scholar!"

"Top scholar!"

In this atmosphere, Ye Lin felt extremely uncomfortable; he enjoyed it a little, but also felt a little embarrassed.

It was like a rat in the sewer being pulled out and exposed to the sun.

After all, in the seventeen years before this, he had lived in the slums, and usually didn't even have anyone to talk to; experiencing this feeling of being surrounded by stars for the first time made him feel extremely strange.

After finally getting rid of the cheering crowd, Ye Lin returned to Zhuge Qianxing's small courtyard.

Zhuge Ni saw that it was him, frowned, then snorted coldly and stopped looking at him.

Ye Lin didn't pay attention to her, but walked straight to Zhuge Qianxing and sat down. He knew that since he couldn't go to the Supreme Academy, Zhuge Qianxing must have other things to instruct him.

But before Zhuge Qianxing could speak, Ye Lin took the initiative to ask.

"Teacher, I know you have something to say, but please allow me to ask a question first: what is your relationship with that Su Chengxin?"

This question had made Ye Lin curious for the whole journey; if the person in charge of the Qingcheng area of the Supreme Academy wasn't Su Chengxin, he might still have a chance to enter the Supreme Academy, but there was no way, maybe this was fate playing tricks on people.

"I knew you would ask this." Zhuge Qianxing shook his head and smiled bitterly.

At this time, Zhuge Ni also couldn't help but prick up her ears and listen quietly.

"Forget it, there's nothing that can't be said. Su Chengxin is my first love."
