Chapter 483– Stay

Eternal Sky City.

Wang Tianyu’s expression was somewhat strange.

He looked at the president of the Blacksmith Association opposite him and said, “This means that in just a week, this brat has won over 200 purple emblems?”

The president of the Blacksmith Association had a strange expression on his face. “I think so, yes.”

Wang Tianyu coughed. “Close the Gambling Center. What did they do with their investigation? Especially this round, they didn’t even take into account the things that Lan Xuanyu bought at the Special Exchange Office. The odds were actually so high. Isn’t the academy’s money money?”

“Close ? No longer open for the tournament?” The president of the Blacksmith Association asked.

Wang Tianyu hesitated for a moment and said somewhat helplessly, “Forget it. Let them plan well and reduce the odds. We can’t give people like Lan Xuanyu another chance.”

“Teacher, do you think that they still have a chance against the fifth years in the next match?” The president suddenly asked.

Wang Tianyu was stunned. That’s right! They would be facing the fifth years in the next round. He couldn’t help but laugh. “This brat, he made me so angry that I got confused.”

The president said sincerely, “This junior is really amazing! I’m starting to admire him now. By the time he reaches his sixth year, I’m afraid he’ll surpass us Inner Court seniors.”

Wang Tianyu said in a low voice, “A jade without sculpting is useless. He still has a long way to go. A moment of brilliance doesn’t mean anything. Before he breaks through to god rank, no one can say for sure that he can really go that far. Go and see if he still wants to bet everything in the next round.”

“Yes.”

When the president of the Blacksmith Association arrived in the Outer Court, the first piece of news he received was that Lan Xuanyu had returned back the money. He had only borrowed for a few days and the interest was naturally only two or three kittens.

Thinking about Lan Xuanyu’s gains, his heart ached. With so many emblems, how fast would his cultivation speed increase?!

At this moment, Lan Xuanyu had already left the Blacksmith Association and returned to his dorm. The reason was simple, he felt that he needed to calm down. At the same time, he wanted to feel the effects of the Vermillion Fruit.

He was undoubtedly very excited about this victory, but he wasn’t overly excited. This was because their ultimate goal in this match was to gain the qualifications, stand out from the competition, and be able to attend the ceremony with his entire class.

It seemed like they had won the battle very quickly today, but Lan Xuanyu had racked his brains in preparations for this battle. If they were to fight head-on, it could be said that they didn’t have much of a chance. And in the next round, they would be facing the fifth years.

Fifth year, Two-Word Battle Armor! The difference between that and a One-Word Battle Armor was like heaven and earth. It would be very difficult for a control combo like today to work. The other party would be on guard too!

How could they defeat the fifth years ? They might really have to rely on Tang Yuge. As their secret weapon, it was time for Tang Yuge to appear. Even so, their chances of winning were still very small.

Hence, for this victory, he had to make ample preparations.

After calculating his current wealth after returning 50 purple emblems, he still had about 200 purple emblems left. Huge money, this was definitely a huge sum!

In the next round, because of the variable Tang Yuge, he would still place a bet, but it would be greatly smaller.

At this thought, he dialed Tang Zhenhua’s number.

“Teacher, let me report to you. We won today. We defeated the fourth years. Isn’t your student very strong?” Lan Xuanyu said proudly.

“You’re alright.” Tang Zhenhua’s voice was emotionless.

Lan Xuanyu said, “It was all thanks to your wise guidance that I was able to lead the first years to achieve such results. Thank you for your guidance over the past year. You are the best teacher in the Outer Court.”

Hearing Lan Xuanyu’s sincere words, Tang Zhenhua said in annoyance, “Stop flattering me. One who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions. Tell me, what do you want?”

Lan Xuanyu chuckled. “I’m speaking from the bottom of my heart! Teacher, I’m really grateful to you. Compared to the other students, I’m really lucky to be your student.” This wasn’t flattery at all. Don’t look at Tang Zhenhua’s sloppy appearance, this teacher was extremely reliable in all aspects other than abusing him. Especially the support he gave him, he was definitely the best in the academy. When he had just acknowledged him as his teacher and he was given a black emblem to assist in his cultivation! Where else could he find such a teacher?

“En.” Tang Zhenhua’s voice became gentler. “If you have something to say, say it quickly, don’t waste my time.”

Lan Xuanyu chuckled. “Teacher, it’s like this. I’ve bought some good wine from outside last time and sent it to you. I don’t know much about vines, so I bought an expensive one. I think it was some limited 50-year whiskey called the Silver-Winged Angel of the whiskey world?”

“What is this?” Tang Zhenhua raised his voice. “What did you buy?”

“I think they said that it was limited to 200 bottles. What’s it called?” Lan Xuanyu asked.

Tang Zhenhua asked anxiously, “Is it called Mai Dilun whiskey?”

“En en, I think so.” Lan Xuanyu smiled.

“Where is it, where is the wine?” Tang Zhenhua asked anxiously.

“It’s with me, I forgot to bring it to you. I’ll send it to you right away. Oh, right, if you have time, can I follow you to the Special Exchange Office again? I still want to buy some stuff.”

“Buy more? Where did you get the money from?” Tang Zhenhua asked doubtfully.

After Lan Xuanyu had used the wine as his backbone, he told the truth. “Teacher, I was wrong. I had placed another bet in the Gambling Center. I placed my bet on us and won. Don’t worry, I’ve already returned the money from the Blacksmith Association.”

“Bet? You won? Why didn’t you call me? Do you still know what it means to respect your teacher ? You’re confident of winning but you didn’t tell me. What were you thinking?” Tang Zhenhua roared from the other side.

Lan Xuanyu was speechless. He felt that he didn’t understand his teacher well enough!

“Come over, bring the wine.” Tang Zhenhua hung up.

Tang Yuge walked out of the third years’ classroom silently and looked up at her class’ card. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a voice behind her.

“Stay.”

She turned around and looked at the owner of the voice.

The tall Sima Xian stood in the corridor not far away, both hands in his pockets as he slowly walked towards her.

“If you want to mock me, this is your last chance,” Tang Yuge said indifferently.

Sima Xianxian: “Do you know why you were ostracized by everyone?”

Tang Yuge: “Tell me ?”

Sima Xianxian: “Because you’re too overbearing. Since our first year onwards, you’ve always been especially unyielding. You have to manage everything in the class and even manage everyone’s private matters. You work very hard every day and train hard. But you’ve never truly understood the thoughts of your classmates. You just want to lead everyone in the direction that you want. When you show sufficient strength and keep charging forward with everyone, no one will say anything because you’re too strong, so no one dares to. But it’s not that they don’t have any objections towards you. And after that failure, you can’t prove that you’re strong enough, especially after losing to the first years for the second time. That’s why the students that you used to suppress reacted so strongly. Because you can no longer bring glory to everyone, why do they still have to endure your attitude? That’s a form of oppression.”

“I didn’t oppress anyone.” Tang Yuge clenched her fists.

Sima Xianxian: “That is what you think in your heart, but your actions have always been oppressing others. Just like when you felt that I might be a threat to you, you insisted on fighting with me in front of all your classmates. Wasn’t it to ensure your position as class leader ? After losing that time, do you know how big of a blow it was to me? You’re very strong, but your heart isn’t stable, causing your emotions to leak from time to time, and your classmates to bear them with you. If you were just an ordinary student, it wouldn’t be a big deal. But you’re the third years’ class leader, and your emotions represent the emotions of the third years. I don’t love the position of class leader that much, but if I let you continue like this, it would have affected everyone.”

“But I don’t have any intention of chasing you away. In fact, we’ve seen everything you’ve done for our class all these years. You’ve made many people uncomfortable, but you’ve also brought us a lot of glory. Everyone doesn’t want you to leave, they just hope that you can blend into this team more peacefully. If you can do it, the class leader’s position will still be yours because you’re the strongest among the third years, the captain of our little Sunshine After Rain squadron.”

“Yes, Captain, stay.” Right at this moment, two figures walked out. They were Li Siming and Li Siqi, the two Black Tortoise Shield brothers.
