Chapter 266: Thirty days east of the river, thirty days west of the river
"It finished so quickly."
Yun Shen was a bit surprised. He thought that this principal, who was as clear and refined as a fairy descending to the world, would go on and on.
Zhao Yunqin explained: "It's not that everyone is as unconcerned about the safety of their territory as we are. In fact, many classmates have already left just now to find people to invest in them outside."
"That's true."
Yun Shen nodded. He was also misled by the principals of elementary and middle school, thinking that the high school principal would also be so long-winded.
Zhu Ying trotted over and patted Yun Shen on the shoulder: "Hey, hey, hey, Yun Shen, I just heard many people discussing your deeds."
Yun Shen asked suspiciously: "What deeds could I have?"
"I want to laugh when I mention this."
Zhu Ying chuckled: "It's the lords of our newcomer village who are telling people about you being rejected by Penguin's angel investor. Now a large group of people know that the territory core you awakened at that time was only of Gray Inferior quality and that you were looked down upon. They are all helping you show off now."
"...... So showing off can be forced."
"There are also many people who secretly took photos of you to post on TikTok and edited your experience. The titles are quite good."
"...... What are the titles?"
"I only saw one, called something... 'Thirty days east of the river, thirty days west of the river, don't bully the young for being poor'."
"......"
Yun Shen was completely silenced. He seriously suspected whether the 【Child of Luck】 affix was going crazy. Why did it start putting the protagonist template of 'Dou Qi Horse Transformation' on him?
In fact, he didn't care about that angel investor at the time. Everyone was out to make a living, and everyone would seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Let's change the subject.
"When are we going to your house?"
"Anytime is fine, follow me."
Zhu Ying grabbed Yun Shen's arm with her oily hands and walked out of the playground.
Zhao Yunqin also followed behind. She also had to return to the Zhao family. She believed that some people would be shocked to see her successfully become a lord and pass the Ultimate Campaign, right?
The three of them left, but not only them; many students didn't linger on the spirit food and drinks at this time and chose to leave.
Outside Tianxing High School, many people were already maintaining order.
Hearing the news of their family members sacrificing in the Myriad Races Battlefield, no one could remain indifferent. There were a lot of people crying, and this group of people was the first to leave, not wanting to stay in this sad place.
Because flying is not allowed at will in the Main World, vehicles and the like are still useful on Blue Star.
However, it is very different from Yun Shen's previous life. The Blue Star of this world has extremely developed technology, and the cars used are all magnetic levitation, which can fly in the sky.
When the three of them just walked out of Tianxing High School, they saw how many people were outside. It was simply a sea of people.
They used to scroll through videos during this time in previous years and see how chaotic the school gate of Tianxing High School was. Seeing it today gave them a different feeling.
Up to one million students entered the Myriad Races Battlefield. Some people knew their own situation and didn't fight hard in the Myriad Races Battlefield, but exited obediently, thus escaping disaster.
But not everyone would do so. Some died of unwillingness, and some wanted to quit, but the wild monsters didn't give them a chance to quit.
Therefore, every year, hundreds of thousands of students' family members linger at the gate of Tianxing High School, hoping for that slim chance, hoping to see their children become lords, instead of letting their names lie on that cold list of the fallen.
Listening to the wails that still sounded from time to time, Yun Shen shook his head slightly.
The human race is naturally weak. The path of a lord may not be suitable for them, but for the continuation of the race, countless young people must rush forward one after another, using blood and tears to build a solid barrier to resist the threats of all races.
After the students walked out of the school gate, they were soon surrounded by angel investors who wanted to finance them.
The three of them didn't want to waste time on these people. After all, two of the three were from the God Realm aristocratic families, and one was a hidden Human Clan Taboo. None of them were people who needed financing.
But it was useless to try to hide. There were too many angel investors nearby, and they were stopped the next moment.
"These three students! May I ask if you need financing?"
Cheng Xianhou recognized Zhao Yunqin and Zhu Ying, both of whom were prodigy lords who had passed the Ultimate Campaign.
It was mainly because the beauty of these two girls was too outstanding, making them easy to recognize.
As for Yun Shen, he didn't recognize him. After all, the gap between the him at that time and his current appearance and temperament was too great.
Just looking at the headshot Yun Shen took before, if you weren't very familiar with him, you might not be able to recognize him.
Zhao Yunqin: "No, the family will fund me."
Cheng Xianhou: "Ah, then sorry to bother you."
It seems this little sister has a background.
Zhu Ying: "My surname is Zhu, the Zhu of Zhu Yuanzhang."
Cheng Xianhou: "!!!"
Never mind, sorry to bother you.
Good guy, actually met a young descendant of the Wu Ming Zhu family. Truly rare.
Yun Shen's eyes were strange: "No, I don't need financing now."
It seems this person didn't recognize him, but it didn't matter.
Cheng Xianhou saw that Yun Shen was in the same group as these two girls, so he had a rough idea in his heart. He was probably also a descendant of an aristocratic family.
Especially since Yun Shen's appearance and temperament were so extraordinary, he definitely wasn't from an ordinary family.
"What a pity. By the way, have we met? I always feel you look a bit familiar?"
Cheng Xianhou always felt like he had seen Yun Shen somewhere, but he just couldn't remember.
Yun Shen thought about it and said truthfully: "I once asked you for investment, and you rejected me."
"Ah???"
Cheng Xianhou was bewildered. When did that happen? Why did he have no impression at all?
And aren't you from an aristocratic family? Why did you need to ask for his investment?
If he had seen someone so handsome, even if he wasn't gay, he should have remembered it, right?
"So it was you who rejected Yun Shen's investment, pfft~"
Zhu Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Even Zhao Yunqin, who had always been quiet and elegant, couldn't help but laugh a little.
If he had successfully invested in a prodigy lord, or a prodigy lord who had passed the third-difficulty Ultimate Campaign, the bonus would probably have been enough for him to live happily for a lifetime.
"Let's go. Little Zhu, you should have a car to pick you up, right?"
"Of course, it's been waiting in the parking area for a long time. By the way, Sister Yunqin, do you want me to give you a ride?"
"No, I've already called one."
"Alright then."
Watching the three of them leave, Cheng Xianhou didn't go to pester them.
"The name they called just now, could it be..."
Cheng Xianhou took out his phone and searched through that list of people who had passed the Ultimate Campaign, and soon found it.
He had felt Yun Shen's avatar was familiar before, but he couldn't think of where he had seen it.
"The investment I rejected..."
Cheng Xianhou muttered to himself. Finally, when he accidentally glanced at the three words "Xu Xiaojiang" on the list, the memory from a month ago suddenly flooded into his mind...
Unknowingly, his mouth suddenly opened wide. Yun Shen's figure, which was walking further and further away, gradually overlapped with the lonely teenager in his memory...
No... impossible, right?
At that time, the teenager clearly awakened a territory core of Gray Inferior quality, right?
