Chapter 72: The Threat of Wu Shaoqi

In Mi Xue’s view, Ye Lin’s strength was so terrifying that he could subdue her with a single skill; he must be a top scholar from a major city.

Don’t think that just because they are all top scholars, there is no gap between them.

For instance, a top scholar coming from a city like Shencheng must have strength far more terrifying than those coming from small cities.

"I’m from Qingcheng. As for the Supreme Academy... I actually wanted to go, but they didn't want me," Ye Lin shrugged helplessly.

"What?!"

Mi Xue exclaimed, startling the people around them.

"With your strength, how could the Supreme Academy not want you? And what kind of place is Qingcheng?"

"Qingcheng... it should be considered an unknown small city in Daxia. As for why the Supreme Academy didn't want me, do you know there is a profession called Forbidden Spellcaster?" Ye Lin said.

"Forbidden Spellcaster? No wonder..."

In Mi Xue’s watery, wide eyes, the look of guilt grew even more intense.

Forbidden Spellcasters are naturally short-lived, and she had broken his door, treated him like a pervert, and chased him down for a beating; she really deserved to die!

"Let’s go! Let’s not talk about such sad things anymore. I’ll take you to eat!"

Mi Xue pulled Ye Lin into a restaurant. There were quite a lot of diners here, and the two of them only found a spot in the corner.

Mi Xue handed the menu to Ye Lin.

"You order! Order whatever you want to eat, don't be polite!"

"Why do you make it sound like I’m about to die?" Ye Lin rubbed his nose helplessly. Of course, he didn't stand on ceremony with Mi Xue and ordered a whole table of food directly.

Soon the dishes were served. The shop Mi Xue found seemed to be a long-standing establishment, as every dish was cooked to perfection.

Just as the two were enjoying the food, a tall woman wearing a tight black outfit and high heels came walking toward them, *clack, clack, clack*.

"Yo? Isn't this our top scholar Mi Xue? A violent maniac like you can actually find a man to eat with? Looks like you've reached the age where you're starting to get horny."

Seeing this, Mi Xue’s little face sank instantly: "Ning Yiyi! I don't want to fall out with you today, get lost!"

She already felt guilty toward Ye Lin and naturally didn't want to cause any more trouble.

But just because she didn't want to didn't mean Ning Yiyi felt the same. Seeing Mi Xue’s reaction, Ning Yiyi became even more energized and took the initiative to reach out toward Ye Lin.

"Handsome, let's get to know each other. My name is Ning Yiyi."

Ye Lin ignored her and looked at Mi Xue instead, asking.

"Who is she?"

"Her? A coward who was afraid of losing to me and ran off to another city to take the college entrance exam!" Mi Xue lifted her little head.

First ignored by Ye Lin and then mocked by Mi Xue, Ning Yiyi’s expression turned gloomy for a moment, but then she smiled again and said to Ye Lin.

"Handsome, what do you see in Mi Xue? She has nothing, she’s basically a washboard. Why not come with me? I’ll introduce you to a few pretty girlfriends?" Ning Yiyi leaned down slightly, revealing half of her ample assets.

Ye Lin moved back calmly.

"Hello, please stay away from me. You have bad breath."

"Pfft!"

Mi Xue couldn't hold it in and sprayed the noodles she had just put in her mouth, which landed right on Ning Yiyi’s face. She hadn't expected Ye Lin to be so ruthless when roasting someone.

Calling a beauty out for having bad breath in public was undoubtedly stabbing a knife directly into the other person’s heart.

Ning Yiyi’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. She wiped the noodles off her face and glared coldly at Ye Lin and Mi Xue.

"Baby, what's wrong?"

Just as Ning Yiyi was about to lash out, a thin man suddenly walked into the restaurant entrance.

He was wearing an expensive Versace suit and walked with a vigorous stride, as if every step exuded an aura that could not be ignored. After walking up to Ning Yiyi, his hand wrapped directly around her slender waist.

Seeing the man, Ning Yiyi’s expression softened significantly. She leaned against him, pointed at Ye Lin and Mi Xue, and complained: "These two are bullying me!"

The man looked in the direction of Ning Yiyi’s finger. His gaze lingered on Ye Lin and the other for a moment, then he smiled slightly.

"Apologize."

The tone was calm, yet it carried an unquestionable dominance.

Seeing that Ye Lin and Mi Xue remained unmoved, the man narrowed his eyes, a dangerous light glinting in his pupils.

"I'll give you one last chance. Apologize."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man took the initiative to display his profession and level.

[Wu Shaoqi, Angel Holy Knight, Level 22]

This level made Mi Xue’s expression grave, and even Ye Lin’s pupils shrank slightly.

Level 22; this Wu Shaoqi’s level was indeed shocking!

It stood to reason that this guy must be from one of the top-ranked cities in Daxia. In those cities, whether it was novice secret realms or the wilderness, the resources and quantity of monsters were much richer, and the level of class-changers would rise much faster.

In the end, Qingcheng was just a corner of the world.

"I know you just stood out from your little county and won the title of top scholar, and you're feeling quite full of yourselves."

"You might be gold, but here, everything is glittering with gold and jade."

"I’m asking you to apologize as an act of tolerance. If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for being impolite," Wu Shaoqi said coldly.

Ye Lin performed a tactical lean-back, resting his entire body against the chair.

Being able to reach Level 22, this Wu Shaoqi indeed had the capital to be arrogant. But honestly, Ye Lin didn't take Level 22 seriously. To judge without rhyme or reason and demand an apology right off the bat—Wu Shaoqi wasn't qualified.

Ye Lin pondered for a moment, then spoke in a very friendly manner.

"Apologize to your mother's head."

"What did you say?!" Wu Shaoqi’s expression changed instantly. The aura on his body condensed sharply, and a powerful pressure radiated from him, instantly filling the entire restaurant.

Following that, a brilliant phantom of an angel slowly condensed behind Wu Shaoqi, bathed in holy light, and a biting, sacred aura rushed toward them.

"SSS-rank profession, Angel Holy Knight!" Someone in the restaurant exclaimed upon seeing this scene.

Ye Lin raised his hand slightly, and silver-white lightning arcs gathered in his palm, dancing like spirit snakes.

Just as the atmosphere became tense and the two were about to break into a fight, a dignified voice came from the restaurant entrance.

"Inside Shencheng, class-changers are strictly forbidden from fighting recklessly! Offenders will be fined 30,000 and detained for ten days."

A man spoke coldly. From his attire, it was not hard to recognize that he was from the Investigation Bureau.

Wu Shaoqi and Ye Lin withdrew their hands. The Top Scholar Secret Realm was about to open; being detained for ten days at this time was obviously extremely cost-ineffective.

But the anger in Wu Shaoqi’s eyes did not diminish in the slightest. He held Ning Yiyi and threatened in a gloomy, low voice.

"I’ve remembered you. You’d better not let me run into you in the Top Scholar Secret Realm. Although the Top Scholar Secret Realm doesn't kill people, there are plenty of ways to make life worse than death."
