Chapter 1068: What's wrong? Can't I 1v4?
Chi Chan could not believe her eyes when she first saw the familiar young man. She was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until the young man walked towards her with a bright smile that she knew she wasn't hallucinating.
A hint of pleasant surprise lit up in her beautiful eyes. Nothing else mattered to her at the moment—she was simply overjoyed to see her ex-student again after a year.
As Li Luo walked over, he completely disregarded the men she had been talking to. He smiled at Chi Chan and said, "Mentor Chi Chan, long time no see."
Chi Chan's beautiful eyes lit up and her voice softened up. "Li Luo, why're you here?"
She knew that Li Luo had come to the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, but the place was gargantuan. She had never expected to run into him.
Li Luo grinned and replied, "I have some matters to settle, so I happened to visit the Heavenly Origin Ancient College. My friend mentioned that you're here, so I hurried over to meet you, Mentor."
Hearing this, Chi Chan understood immediately. She took a good look at the young man. Li Luo seemed to have matured in the year they had spent apart. His playful youthfulness was gone, replaced by an air of confidence. This made her pleasantly surprised. It seemed he had not lost his charisma even after coming to this talent-filled continent.
As she was looking at Li Luo, the two individuals who had been sidelined were beginning to feel irritated.
Elder Wang Ling frowned and took a glance at Li Luo. "You're not a student from the Heavenly Origin Ancient College?"
"No. I am a student from Astral Sage College," Li Luo answered.
Wang Ling took a look at Mentor Chen Yun from Lake Sage College. He sounded like he was poking fun as he commented, "It seems like Mentor Chi Chan brought a student along."
Although it was funny, it was also a bit baffling. What was the point in bringing just one student?
Nonetheless, Wang Ling didn't bother to ask any other questions. His eyes turned back to Chi Chan as he asked aggressively, "Mentor Chi Chan, won't you give it a second thought? This may be your very last chance. If nothing works out today, you can prepare to head out. The Heavenly Origin Ancient College cannot let outsiders hang around for too long."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChi Chan's eyes turned cold again.
However, Li Luo interrupted with a grin before she could say anything, "I thought cannibalism only occurred in remote and barren lands... I definitely didn't expect to see such a thing occurring in an ancient college. Elder, aren't you afraid of tarnishing the Heavenly Origin Ancient College's reputation for doing something like this?"
Li Luo wasn't pulling any punches. Hearing this, Wang Ling's face darkened immediately as he said coldly, "Mentor Chi Chan, is this how the Astral Sage College teaches its students to act? He shows no respect to his elders at all. If this is how he speaks to others, I'm afraid he'll live a short life. Enough is enough, Mentor Chi Chan. My patience has already been tested. Please leave our school grounds by the end of today!"
Chi Chan clenched her fists and anger whelmed up within her eyes. However, there was a sense of helplessness within her anger. Although she held a respectable position as a Duke back in the Xia Kingdom, it was of little significance in the Heavenly Origin Ancient College.
"Wow, this elder here is truly impressive." Li Luo laughed again. There was clearly a sense of sarcasm hidden in his words.
Elder Wang Ling's face turned even darker when he heard the sarcastic laugh. He waved his hands and was about to signal for the enforcement team of the academy to come over and escort these two out.
However, Zong Sha and Jiang Wanyu stepped forward at this point as they felt the tension in the air.
"Elder Wang Ling, you cannot chase Brother Li Luo out of the school."
Wang Ling looked at him with a gloomy face. "What nonsense are you spouting?"
He was deeply frustrated. After all, he was an elder in the Heavenly Origin Ancient College. Was Zong Sha suggesting that he didn't even have the power to chase two people out?
Zong Sha continued in a helpless tone, "Brother Li Luo comes from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li, and he's the grandson of the Lineage Chief of the Dragon's Fang Lineage."
Jiang Wanyu added, "His Father is Li Taixuan. His grandfather is a Dual Crowned King and his Ancestor is a Heavenly Emperor."
As soon as those words came out, the elder froze. It was not just Wang Ling—even Chen Yun's face stiffened. And their surprised eyes turned towards Li Luo. Mentor Chi Chan's beautiful eyes also widened a little.
This lasted for a few moments before Elder Wang Ling's face changed. He did not ask whether Zong Sha and Jiang Wanyu were lying, as it was meaningless for them to do so.
However, he would definitely have to restrain himself a little if Li Luo was really from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. It was a Heavenly Emperor power after all. Besides, Li Luo was the beloved grandchild of the Dragon's Fang Lineage's Lineage Chief.
With such a background, not even the Heavenly Origin Ancient College could bully him recklessly.
When it came to Heavenly Emperor lineages, it was very common for the older ones to stand up when the younger ones got bullied. If the older ones were still bullied as well, then the ancestors would come out... Things would go on and on in this manner.
It would be a huge headache even for the Heavenly Origin Ancient College. If that happened, it would be troublesome not just for him, but for Vice Principal Wu Yu as well.
Wang Ling gave a dry cough. He broke the silence and slowly said, "What a surprise. Who would have expected the beloved grandchild of the Lineage Chief of the Dragon's Fang Lineage to be a student from the Astral Sage College?"
"Does the Heavenly Origin Ancient College still plan to chase us out?" Li Luo asked jokingly.
Elder Wang Ling's face twitched a little. He then quickly explained, "We're not sending you away, we're simply following the school rules. Rules must be enforced, but we're flexible; surely we can work something out. Dear visitor Li Luo, you are a respected guest from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li, so we'll definitely make sure you are well accommodated."
Elder Wang Ling had acted aggressively against the weak Chi Chan with no background earlier. However, he couldn't treat Li Luo the same, so he changed his approach immediately.
"I understand that the Heavenly Origin Ancient College cannot help the Astral Sage College directly due to manpower constraints. But are you all going to make things hard in terms of offering resources too?" Li Luo asked.
Elder Wang Ling replied, "Li Luo, resource allocation is and has always been a huge issue. Every sage college wants a share, so we have to follow the rules."
At this point, he was speaking with an official tone, as if the one who had oppressed Chi Chan was a completely different person. Besides, this was an internal matter of the Heavenly Origin Ancient College, so even though Li Luo was from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li, there was no reason for him to get involved.
Wang Ling's stance and attitude were very clear. He recognized that Li Luo was from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li and was the beloved grandchild of the Dragon's Fang Lineage's Lineage Chief. With that in mind, he would naturally give Li Luo some face and stop making things hard for Chi Chan. However, he would not be able to make use of his background to get resources for her. The Heavenly Origin Ancient College was considerably powerful as well, and if he forcefully pushed for something, it would only incur the wrath from the senior management of the college.
The Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li was indeed a Heavenly Emperor power, but not even they could change the Heavenly Origin Ancient College's rules.
Li Luo smirked indifferently. "Since the elder wishes to follow the rules now, we'll follow suit. The Astral Sage College will take part in the academic evaluation and earn those resources with our own capabilities."
Wang Ling shot him a strange look. "Li Luo, the other colleges have sent at least four students for the evaluation. It'll be a four-man team during the evaluation. The Astral Sage college only has you, a single student."
"Yes, one student. What's the problem?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLi Luo then asked, feigning confusion, "I'll fight all four alone. Is that not allowed?"
Everyone fell into silence. Even Zong Sha and Jiang Wanyu stared at Li Luo. How could he say something so arrogant with such a humble expression?
Mentor Chen Yun from the Lake Sage College smiled and said, "Li Luo, you mean you want to represent the Astral Sage College for the academic evaluation as a single individual?"
"Mentor, are you hard of hearing? Do I need to repeat myself again?" Li Luo smiled a little. With how despicable this man had acted towards Mentor Chi Chan earlier, Li Luo would naturally not hold back with his words.
A flash of anger flew across Chen Yun's eyes as he snorted. However, his frustration could only be bottled up due to Li Luo's background.
At this point, he finally felt how aggrieved Chi Chan was when they bullied her earlier.
Li Luo stared at Wang Ling and asked, "Elder Wang Ling, I'll participate alone. This is not against the rules, right?"
Wang Ling hesitated for a while before he replied, "Indeed, there's no rule against one person participating in the evaluation... Alright, then. If you all insist, I'll let you."
After saying that, he turned around to leave, but Li Luo suddenly stopped him.
"Please wait a moment."
"What's the matter now?" Elder Wang Ling asked with a frown.
"May I ask how many vice principals are in the college at the moment?" Li Luo said.
Wang Ling did not feel like answering him. However, he thought for a moment and replied, "Two. One of them is Vice Principal Wu Yu, the other is Vice Principal Qing Man."
"I would like to meet them."
Wang Ling rejected him immediately. "The two vice principals are really busy at the moment and have no time to meet with the Astral Sage College."
At this point, Li Luo slowly pulled out a letter from his robe. It was marked with the crest from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li, and behind it was a dragon's maw, revealing its sharp fangs.
"I'm not asking to meet the two vice principals as a student of the Astral Sage College. This is a letter from the Dragon's Fang Lineage from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Please help me to pass this on to the two vice principals and see if they can make some time to meet me."
Wang Ling was dumbfounded as he stared at the letter. It was emitting a strange pressure, and he was unsure of how to handle this sudden turn of events.
