88: Chapter 88: The Challenge, The Battle of the Strongest Freshmen
"As expected of the top scorer, Lu Yuan gave all of us observers a show of force right from the start."
Accompanied by this abrupt voice, a group of four people walked in from outside the Conquest Academy.
The leader was a woman with a tall figure; her tight leather outfit paired with short, sharp hair gave her an air of decisive, heroic spirit.
The three people behind her were all extraordinary. Their auras were very fierce.
The short-haired woman in the lead was Lei Ting, who ranked second in this year's College Entrance Exam.
"She is indeed very strong." Lei Ting looked at Lu Yuan, who was ranked first on the big screen, and said sincerely.
Since awakening the legendary class Conqueror, Lei Ting had become a hotshot genius in the capital.
Everyone believed that she would become a top contender for this year's national College Entrance Exam top scorer.
Lei Ting did not disappoint everyone's expectations. She achieved a very high score in the College Entrance Exam.
However, she never expected to lose to this hedonistic second-generation heir.
Previously, Lei Ting was still quite unconvinced. But after witnessing the other party ascend to the 20th floor of the Tower of Conquest with such a dominant posture, Lei Ting was completely convinced.
However, some people were not convinced. The few people following behind Lei Ting were also among the top ten in this year's College Entrance Exam.
In terms of family background, talent, and class, they were all top-tier. They were all unconvinced. Especially Fang Yu, who ranked third in this year's College Entrance Exam.
"Lu Yuan... still loves to show off so much."
Just then, hum—! Accompanied by a buzzing sound, a dazzling white pillar of light descended from the sky and landed in front of everyone.
A tall, robust, and slender figure walked out from the light. Standing at 1.85 meters tall, paired with a dazzling golden protector set, it made Lu Yuan look handsome while highlighting his tall and strong build.
On his shoulder stood a dragon-shaped Slime with its arms crossed, its eyes flickering with fire, as if it were about to erupt at any moment.
Just by walking out of the light pillar, the powerful aura he emitted deterred everyone.
"Young Master is truly too handsome." Bai Zhi revealed a brilliant smile and exclaimed from the bottom of her heart.
Family background, strength, appearance, height... no matter which aspect you looked at, Lu Yuan was at the very top of the pyramid.
His appearance immediately made many young girls scream in excitement, and some even took out their phones to start taking pictures. The most frantic among them was naturally He Yehua.
However, unlike the others, her target for photography was not Lu Yuan, but the King Slime sitting on Lu Yuan's shoulder with an arrogant look on its face.
"So handsome, King Slime."
"To actually bring Junior Lu Yuan to the 25th floor in one go, you are definitely the strongest Magic Pet in history."
Lu Yuan arrived in front of Bai Zhi and Celia, looking at Su Zian, who was being stepped on by Bai Zhi.
"You lost; it's time to fulfill your bet."
Su Zian did not answer but struggled desperately, looking at Su Qingshan to the side.
"I have already followed your orders and done everything..."
"You cannot just... watch me be bullied by others."
Su Qingshan didn't want to either. However, the woman in front of him was too strong!! So strong that he couldn't even say a single word.
Celia did not speak the entire time. At this moment, she gripped the golden spear in her hand tightly, the tip pointing directly at Su Qingshan. It seemed that if he made any movement, this spear would instantly pierce his throat. This put immense pressure on Su Qingshan. Let alone talking tough, he didn't even dare to move a muscle right now.
Seeing his boss in this state, Su Zian was in despair. He directly transferred all his credits to Lu Yuan.
"2752 credits, not bad." Lu Yuan looked at his credits, which had increased to four digits again, and petted the Slime on his shoulder.
"Little guy, now the three of you can have a few more hearty meals." The Slime's small beady eyes squinted into two slits.
"Thank you, Master."
Watching helplessly as the other party took away the credits he had worked so hard to save over the past two years, only to go and eat, drink, and be merry, Su Zian felt like he was about to grind his back teeth to dust.
"The credits have already been transferred to you, let me go." Su Zian said, almost begging.
Lu Yuan remained completely unmoved, looking down at the other party from a high position. "Our bet seems to have one more item."
Su Zian's face flushed red and then turned pale. To kowtow and admit his mistake to Lu Yuan in front of so many people? What face would he have left to hang around at Star Academy in the future?
Even if I, Su Zian, die, even if I end up with a broken head and bleeding, it is absolutely impossible for me to kneel and kowtow in front of so many people.
Thump. Su Zian knelt on the ground, respectfully kowtowed once, and then shouted at the top of his lungs. "Lu Yuan, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Silence. The entire area around the Tower of Conquest fell into a dead silence. Everyone looked at Su Zian kneeling on the ground in a daze.
"No way, this guy is too ruthless, right?"
"He just knelt down just like that?"
"To be honest, Su Zian doing this actually makes me see him in a slightly different light."
"Yeah, although Su Zian has a foul mouth, he keeps his word and doesn't welch."
"On the other hand, look at Su Qingshan, letting his lackey start trouble while he only dares to shrink in the back. This kind of person is really trash."
"Exactly, if Su Qingshan really becomes the head of the Su Family, then the Su Family is finished in the future."
Su Qingshan, who was being guarded one-on-one by Celia, expressed: My heart is in pain!!! Do you know what I am facing? This is not a freshman at all; this is a monster, a true monster.
Su Qingshan could be certain that this girl in front of him, bathed in golden light, was definitely not weaker than Lu Yuan in strength. It was too perverted. Such an existence was actually just an unknown subordinate by Lu Yuan's side.
However, Su Qingshan also knew that if things continued like this, he would completely lose the hearts of his people. He could only bite the bullet and stand out.
"Lu Yuan, my cousin Zian did something wrong and has already paid the corresponding price. I ask that you do not make things difficult for him."
Lu Yuan: ??? He thought this guy came out to talk tough. He didn't expect him to actually back down. Lu Yuan waved his hand speechlessly.
Su Zian felt like he had been granted amnesty, using his hands and feet to scramble away from there for his life. Embarrassing, it was just too damn embarrassing. Su Qingshan felt the same. This comical scene drew bursts of uproarious laughter from the crowd.
Just when people thought all the fun was over, a short and stocky man who had been standing behind Lei Ting walked out. "Lu Yuan, dare to accept my challenge?"
Lu Yuan was a bit confused when he turned back. He looked at the short and stocky man who had come before him, standing 1.6 meters tall and 1.5 meters wide, with an exaggerated build. ??? "No, where did this block come from?"
