Chapter 20
Chapter 20
Su Zi knew that Lin Bai was a top student in the Fifth Academy.
His theory results had always been among the top few people in his grade.
It was not anything surprising for him to become the leader.
He was something, but not much.
At least to Su Zi.
Even the top 10 students of the five academies combined would not be half as powerful as her.
The gap between their family backgrounds, talents, and strengths was obvious. It was not something that could be easily made up for by hard work.
Unless Su Zi never cultivated.
Nonetheless, it was obvious.
Even though she did not work hard, she still became someone that all the high school students in the city looked up to.
Under the support of this sense of superiority, Su Zi’s eyes were fixed on the entrance of the venue, and she had begun to plan in her mind how to trample on that b*stard who had disrespected her. She wanted to beat him up.
However, the meaning of this scene was very different to the audience.
Many people were discussing.
“I know that the goddess is already taken, but I still don’t feel good when I see her waiting for her boyfriend with eyes full of love.”
“Who isn’t? What do you think is so great about Lin Bai? He’s just a noob at Mortal Body stage 7. What right does he have to win the favor of Beauty Su?”
“You still don’t know? Lin Bai destroyed the testing equipment with a few punches. His highest measured punch was more than 50 tons!”
“What? More than 50 tons? Is this a joke? I’m at the Mortal Body stage 9, but I can’t even reach 1 ton!”
“If you don’t believe me, you can see for yourself. There’s even a video of it.”
“F*ck, it’s true. He’s only at Mortal Body stage 7, but he’s already so fierce. He doesn’t seem to be any worse than those abnormal people in the First Academy. How could he be unknown in the Fifth Academy for so long…?”
“Who knows? maybe he’s trying to hide his relationship with Beauty Su and avoid suspicion.”
“Bullsh*t. If he really wanted to avoid suspicion, why would he do that to her in the swimming pool? Wouldn’t it cause criticism?”
“Ah… I don’t know! Why are you asking me? Go ask them!”
“Say… Is there a possibility that they were creating a topic to announce their relationship? After all, the exam is coming up, and we’ll graduate if they don’t announce it soon.”
“That… Makes sense.”
“…”
This statement was acknowledged by most people.
The group of people who originally thought that Lin Bai was not worthy of Su Zi also gradually fell silent.
After all…
A punch with more than 50 tons of force was an impossible feat for an ordinary high school student.
Such a person was worthy of their respect.
Despite that…
Just as they were discussing Su Zi and Lin Bai’s relationship…
The host’s voice was heard again.
“The representative team of the Fifth Academy, you can enter the arena now…”
He looked at the few students from the Fifth Academy who were scattered and not in a line at the entrance, and he felt a burst of anxiety in his heart.
‘What are you doing there?
‘Why aren’t you coming in?!
‘What if it affects the progress of the exam if you dawdle any longer?!’
The principal of the Fifth Academy also looked over and frowned.
‘Strange…
‘Where’s Lin Bai?!
‘Why is he the only one absent?
‘Where did he go?’
At this moment, the host shouted a few more times.
He also helplessly said that if the Fifth Academy still did not enter, according to the regulations, they would be punished and disqualified from the mock exam.
The principal panicked.
He hurriedly took out his phone and prepared to call to ask for the reason.
At this moment, a figure hurriedly ran over from the entrance.
It was Lin Bai!
He was wearing his pajamas and pants as if he had just gotten up and did not have time to change his clothes. He ran to the front of the team and led Xu Kun and the others into the venue.
He walked over to the host and explained with a smile.
“I’m sorry, I cultivated too late last night and accidentally broke through to the Martial Artist realm, so I fainted for a while and overslept.”
Behind him, Xu Kun looked very excited.
“F*ck! Big Bai, you’ve reached the Martial Artist realm? Breaking through three small realms and one big realm in one night? This is too exaggerated! Are you even human? How did you cultivate? Quickly tell me!”
Lin Bai smiled calmly. “I practiced boxing all night, so I naturally broke through.”
His voice spread throughout the entire stadium through the speakers.
“…”
The host’s mouth twitched.
‘Are you sure you’re trying to explain to me alone?
‘Why do I feel like you’re here to show off?’
Lin Bai had broken through three small realms and one big realm in one night.
Not to mention the host, even the big shots sitting in the front row were a little stunned by the news.
‘Is this kid for real?’
‘Is it that easy to break through?’
As everyone knew, it was not difficult to break through a small realm.
As long as one’s basic attributes were high enough and one worked hard, one would naturally be able to reach a higher level.
However, a big realm was different.
Usually, there would be an indescribable and untraceable bottleneck.
One had to go through an extremely long period of groping and searching.
Only then would one be able to find a way.
However, Lin Bai managed to get it done in one night?
No one believed it.
That said, when the follow-up measurement with the machine verified the strength of all the seeded contestants, the audience was dumbfounded.
The big words ‘Martial Artist stage 1’ in front of Lin Bai made everyone’s eyes pop out.
It was true!
The leaders were dumbfounded.
‘Good lord, a monstrous student has appeared in the Fifth Academy!’
‘He had improved so much in one night. He might be able to finish in the top ten in this mock exam.’
The principal of the Fifth Academy was content.
Looking at the envious gazes of the people around him who were of similar status to him, he was overjoyed.
‘Who said that the Fifth Academy can’t make it?!
‘Don’t we have a genius?!’
…
Some people were happy, while others were sad.
Outsiders all felt that the exam would be even more exciting because of Lin Bai’s improvement.
On the other hand, the students in the test, especially the seeded team leaders, were under a lot of pressure.
Who would not want the ‘ticket’ to the Elite Special Training Base?
One more expert meant one more threat.
The luxurious lineup of the Fifth Academy was already giving them a headache.
Out of the four martial artists, six of them were a half-step to the Martial Artist realm at Mortal Body stage 10.
Now, a freak had made his way out of the Fifth Academy, making things even worse.
There was only one person who did not care.
Su Zi glanced at Lin Bai out of the corner of her eyes.
Looking at his lazy appearance in his pajamas, she could not help but purse her lips. She looked down on the b*stard from the bottom of her heart.
Lin Bai was dressed so casually for such a grand occasion.
He had the word ‘lousy’ written all over his face!
Thump…
Thump…
At this moment, a melodious bell rang.
The hour arrived.
The host’s eyes focused, and he shouted.
“The 68th joint mock exam of the five academies officially begins!”
