Chapter 195: Just Because We Are Strong!
Ye Bai rejected the recruitment of the three!
"Ye Bai, can you tell me why?"
Pingtian said indifferently.
"Student Ye Bai, do you have any concerns?
You can speak them out; I truly think highly of you!"
The smile on Cheng Yong's face faded slightly, but his tone remained gentle.
"Wow!" The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar!
Countless people looked at each other in confusion at this moment.
Doubts popped up in their minds.
What kind of foolishness is Ye Bai committing? Refusing benefits delivered right to his mouth?
"White God must have his reasons for doing this~" Only the fan club members in Wang Xiaopang's livestream room didn't care at all...
"The reason is that I like staying at Qingshan Martial Arts University, and I don't have any concerns," Ye Bai said.
The truth was, of course, not like that.
Hearing that he would get 3,000 Merit Points per semester, it would be impossible not to be tempted.
He was short on money right now, very short!
Although he had just obtained a Flood-tier Battle Soldier from Tongtian Tower, at most, it would only upgrade the God-Slaying Spear to a Desolate-tier Battle Soldier! Corresponding to a Fifth-grade Martial Artist!
He would be able to reach the Sixth Grade before long.
However.
"How could a pie fall from the sky for no reason..."
"And such a big pie at that..."
After the initial temptation, Ye Bai only felt alarm bells ringing in his heart.
That was three thousand Merit Points per semester! Staying for two years would exceed ten thousand!
Wouldn't it be better for Pingtian and the others to keep it for themselves to buy Pills or Battle Soldiers?
There are indeed people who would be unconditionally good to him, but his intuition told him it was impossible for three such people to appear at once, let alone three Saint-level Heaven's Prides rushing to give him money!
And the reality was exactly as Ye Bai had anticipated...
"Ye Bai, this Alliance Leader suggests you think it through before making a decision!"
The next second, a hint of coldness entered Pingtian's indifferent tone!
"Student Ye Bai, this Association President is giving you the opportunity to come to Magic City Martial Arts University as an Exchange Student; isn't that good?
Why must you refuse our kindness?"
The smile on Cheng Yong's face vanished completely!
"Ye Bai, do you know? The three of us originally came to recruit Shangguan Yijian, but now that he is dead, it means we have lost a Heaven's Pride member.
If you come to Magic City Martial Arts University, we can treat you as one of our own and not hold it against you."
"But if you insist on refusing, the consequences will be very serious!"
In Jiaolong's sinister voice, there was even more of a threatening tone!
Just from the change in their attitudes, Ye Bai didn't need to think to know that offering so many benefits for him to go to Magic City Martial Arts University as an Exchange Student was definitely a trap!
Moreover, it was at this very moment...
"Junior, don't agree to them!"
Meigui's voice rang out!
Her face was full of pain, and blood was even flowing from her eye sockets.
It was clear that warning Ye Bai about this had exhausted all her strength!
"Is Senior Sister Meigui being suppressed by Martial Dao Will?!"
"Did Cheng Yong and the others do it? Have they been controlling Senior Sister from the very beginning?!"
"Are they ill-intentioned because I am a student of Qingshan Martial Arts University?!"
Feeling the mysterious and profound aura lingering around Meigui, Ye Bai was shocked, while simultaneously confirming that Cheng Yong and the others were ill-intentioned, and it was highly likely because of Qingshan Martial Arts University!
"Go!" He decided decisively to take Meigui and leave!
After all, he didn't know what their purpose was in being ill-intentioned.
And he had originally intended to chat with Li Qingqing and the others before continuing to challenge Tongtian Tower to get the reward for the sixtieth floor!
"Ye Bai, did this Alliance Leader let you leave?"
However, Pingtian's figure blocked Ye Bai's path at this moment!
Fast, too fast!
Ye Bai knew that Pingtian and the others were all Grandmaster Realm powerhouses, and as Saint-level Heaven's Prides, they were likely not ordinary Grandmasters.
Yet he hadn't expected Pingtian's speed to be this fast!
"Student Ye Bai, this Association President suggests you agree to us!
Because if you leave now, not only will you have to pay the price for your actions.
Your friends, especially these two, students of Instructor Xi Qian, will all pay the price because of you!"
Cheng Yong then appeared on Ye Bai's other side.
Finally, there was Jiaolong.
The three of them surrounded Ye Bai!
The people around were all shocked.
They didn't understand what was happening.
Weren't Cheng Yong and the other two just offering conditions to recruit Ye Bai, in a harmonious atmosphere?
"What? Do you want to make a move?"
Ye Bai's eyes darkened.
The God-Slaying Spear appeared in his hand.
"You are indeed brilliant and talented, but you are only a freshman; this alliance leader will not bully the young."
Pingtian said indifferently.
Clearly, he did not intend to make a move.
"But if you leave now, it will mean that you, your little girlfriend, and your friends will never be able to challenge the Tongtian Tower again."
"You and your people will be completely cut off from the rewards of the Tongtian Tower!"
Cheng Yong continued with a cold laugh.
"If you feel this price is acceptable, what this president also wants to tell you is that the treatment for specially recruited Heaven's Pride at Magic City Martial Arts University is not set in stone.
If specially recruited Heaven's Pride cannot reach the required level within the specified time, their Heaven's Pride status will be revoked!"
"Even for students who did not enter through the special recruitment path, if they cannot challenge the Tongtian Tower, the resources they obtain from doing missions in the future will also be inferior to others!"
"Let this president see who your friends are...
The two students of Instructor Xi Qian, and also... Xiao Huohuo and Liu Bufan? Oh, and this one called Xuanyuan Mu."
Jiaolong added at the end, enunciating every word.
"Swish!" Ye Bai's expression darkened completely!
He admitted that the words of Jiaolong and Cheng Yong had hit his sore spot!
The three of them had no intention of making a move, which seemingly posed no threat to him.
After all, he was only challenging the Tongtian Tower because Shangguan Yijian would not agree to his Life and Death Arena match, and now only the reward for the sixtieth floor remained to be claimed.
His intuition told him that he could only challenge up to the sixties at most right now.
However, he could not sit by and watch Li Qingqing and the others lose their specially recruited Heaven's Pride status because of him! Lose the cultivation resources they should have received!
Xuanyuan Mu was even just a chance acquaintance who had done nothing wrong!
"Does Magic City Martial Arts University allow you to do this?"
"Haha, why wouldn't it be allowed?"
"The three of us are Saint-level Heaven's Pride, the strongest existences among all the students at Magic City Martial Arts University!" Cheng Yong laughed loudly!
"You also don't need to think about what Instructor Xi Qian can do.
She is indeed the number one Grandmaster of Magic City, but setting aside her background, she is just a Grandmaster!"
Jiaolong gave a sneer.
"Click, click!" Ye Bai gripped the God-Slaying Spear tightly again!
Unreconciled, angry!
Second only to when Yang Hai used his influence to suppress him not long ago!
Especially!
"Ye Bai, don't be impulsive!" Li Qingqing appeared by Ye Bai's side at this moment.
"It doesn't matter if I can't challenge the Tongtian Tower! Don't do anything foolish!"
She did not know why the three were targeting Ye Bai.
She only knew that she did not want anything to happen to Ye Bai.
"Ye Bai, I can become stronger just by sleeping; I don't really need any specially recruited Heaven's Pride treatment!" Wang Xiaopang also ran over.
"Ye Bai, our strength is not great, and we can't clear many floors of the Tongtian Tower anyway, so don't worry about us.
Besides, your speed of becoming stronger is so fast, we believe that it won't be long before you are number one on the Hidden Dragon Ranking!"
Xiao Huohuo and Liu Bufan echoed.
They were all willing to sacrifice for Ye Bai.
"Ye Bai, you guys should go." Xuanyuan Mu thought for a moment, and while feeling even more envious of Ye Bai, he also advised.
Ye Bai looked at them, his inner unwillingness and anger growing even more intense!
These people were treating him with sincerity!
"Ye Bai, last chance!" Pingtian said at this moment.
The look in his eyes as he watched Ye Bai carried a hint of mockery.
It was precisely because they had investigated in advance that they came to put pressure on Ye Bai!
They were certain that Ye Bai would accept and come to Magic City Martial Arts University as an Exchange Student!
"Two months."
Ye Bai held up two fingers toward Pingtian and the other two!
"What do you mean?"
"You want to be an Exchange Student for only two months?"
"That's not impossible, but you will only get one thousand Merit Points."
Cheng Yong thought Ye Bai had agreed, and a smile rose on his face again.
"Two months from now, the three of you, see you at the Life and Death Arena!"
However, Ye Bai then finished what he had to say!
He was indeed unreconciled and angry, but he was not foolish enough to risk his life against the three of them right now!
Because if his guess was correct, even if Magic City Martial Arts University were to revoke the special recruitment status, that would be something for after this semester ended!
Cheng Yong and the other two were arrogant, claiming their fists were hard enough?
Then he would make himself harder than the fists of the three!
In any case, his advantage was that his speed of becoming stronger was fast enough!
"Swish!" The expressions of Pingtian and the other two sank.
"Pfft."
Then they suddenly laughed together, even Pingtian, who had been stern before this.
"Did you hear what he said?
He actually said that he, who has just started his freshman year, is going to challenge us in two months?"
They felt that Ye Bai had told a very funny joke.
"Ye Bai, you are just a freshman, yet you have the strength of a Fifth Grade Mid-Stage, and you have comprehended a Martial Dao Will Embryo; you are indeed impressive, and I also believe that with your speed of Qi and Blood improvement, it won't take long before you can reach Fifth Grade Peak.
But you don't think that you can fully comprehend Martial Dao Will so soon, do you?"
"Don't you know that for a Martial Artist, breaking through from Fifth Grade Peak to Sixth Grade is even more difficult than advancing all the way from Apprentice to Fifth Grade Peak?"
Cheng Yong had a playful look on his face.
"Moreover, the three of us are not just newly entered Grandmasters, but Grandmaster Peak.
For you, with an S-level Talent, to want to defeat us, you would at the very least need the strength of a Half-step Martial King..."
"Become a Half-step Martial King in two months? Why don't you say that you can become a Martial Saint in your freshman year? Oh no, a Martial Emperor?"
The way Jiaolong looked at Ye Bai was more like looking at a fool.
"Ye Bai is a bit too overconfident..."
"What he is facing now is the vast Magic City, which gathers at least half of the country's geniuses, including over a hundred King-level Prodigies, and where at most three Saint-level Heaven's Prides appear each year!"
The people around them had by now realized that the situation was not what they had imagined; Cheng Yong and the other two were not genuinely recruiting Ye Bai, but had come to cause trouble.
Hearing what Ye Bai said, their eyes were also filled with strangeness!
"Two months from now, wash your necks clean!"
However, Ye Bai turned a deaf ear!
