116: The shock brought by Zhongzhou University

Lin Shu, currently at the Qidu Stadium, naturally had no idea what was happening.

Now, the final match was about to begin.

Lin Shu had just put on the attire representing Central State University.

This outfit was a masterpiece of art.

The top was a form-fitting white silk shirt, smooth and delicate in texture.

It flowed like water, conforming to his body's curves.

Exquisite embroidery subtly appeared, and a circular school emblem was clearly visible on his chest.

The bottom was a pair of black wide-leg trousers, with excellent drape, exuding an air of grandeur and nonchalance.

Combined with Lin Shu’s handsome and unique temperament, the two complemented each other perfectly.

Inside the preparation area, several people looked at Lin Shu.

The envy and longing in their eyes could not be hidden.

Although they had been shocked for a long time yesterday, seeing him today still made it impossible for them to remain calm.

The five top universities were sacred places in the hearts of countless students.

Who wouldn't be envious?

At this moment, Gu Zhenbang spoke from the side.

“Why are all of you making such expressions? The match is about to start; focus your attention.”

“Later, the three of you need to pay attention.”

“Lin Shu is our absolute core; we must revolve around him!”

Yesterday, amidst everyone’s astonished gazes and Gu Zhenbang’s hearty laughter, this tactic was decided.

With Lin Shu's current strength, such treatment was perfectly normal.

Lan Mengzhu, Lei Wu, and Li Shuheng quickly recovered and replied in unison.

“Understood.” * 3

Chen Yujia’s position was replaced by Lin Shu, which she had also actively suggested.

Her strength was the weakest, and she didn't want the situation to look bad.

The three who understood Lin Shu's strength were also willing to accept this.

This was clearing the Trial Tower!

They wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing.

A somewhat urgent bell rang.

It was clearly a reminder.

As the sound rang out, the match officially began... Inside the Qidu Stadium, the space with over fifty thousand seats was now packed.

Evidently, most of them were drawn by the name Lin Shu.

After a month, how much more had he improved?

Could he once again turn the tide on the final stage?

This was what everyone anticipated the most.

Below the stage, students from Canglan No. 2 High School occupied a large section of seats, and Bai Sheng was naturally among them.

His gaze was fixed on the stage, on the slowly rising platform.

The lights in the stadium gradually dimmed, and the cheers and anticipation of the audience intertwined.

Then, dazzling beams of light shot from the top and sides of the stadium onto the massive battle stage.

Stirring music followed, further igniting the passionate atmosphere around.

In the stadium's sky, two giant winged dragons with wingspans exceeding ten meters soared into view.

They were the eighth-tier Imperial Beasts — Great-Toothed Wyverns.

They flew at high speed, and sonic booms echoed through the air.

Their fierce and formidable aura was unleashed unrestrainedly.

They were as powerful and cruel as peerless ferocious beasts.

They danced up and down, slowly intertwining, perfecting their planned movements according to the rehearsal.

After circling the edge of the stands, they vanished into the sky.

The opening act was essentially over.

Such a scene drew continuous applause from below the stage; experiencing the power of high-tier Imperial Beasts at such close proximity.

It was exhilarating, gradually rousing excitement.

Under the dazzling lights, the full appearance of the four contestants on both sides was now officially revealed.

In the stage not far away, the host's figure quietly appeared.

“Good afternoon, everyone!”

“Today is the day of the Binzhou Cup finals.”

“At such an important moment, like all of you, my heart is restless.”

“Now, please welcome our contestants for their dazzling entrance!”

Without much unnecessary talk, the host went straight to the main topic.

The venue immediately turned into a sea of jubilation, amidst continuous exclamations and applause.

The figures of the eight people fully appeared before everyone’s eyes.

“Next, I will introduce the contestants one by one.”

“First, from Binzhou High School...”

Below the stage, many people's gazes were mostly focused on Lin Shu.

Their interest in the others was clearly not very high.

Lin Shu’s exquisite and stylish attire made everyone’s eyes light up.

Some even found it exceptionally familiar, feeling a sense of awe without fully understanding, as if they had seen similar attire somewhere before.

Below the stage, Bai Sheng looked at the attire exclusive to Central State University with eyes full of envy.

He had obviously learned about this yesterday.

This guy always manages to refresh his understanding every now and then...

At this moment, the host’s gaze and the big screen’s view also turned to Canglan No. 2 High School’s side.

“This is Lin Shu; I believe everyone is familiar with him. In...”

Suddenly, his voice stopped abruptly; he clearly understood what the attire on Lin Shu represented.

Words from the official competition also came through his earpiece, instructing him to emphasize it.

They had already smelled the scent of tomorrow's headlines.

And the kind that dominates the charts!

He immediately revised his speech.

“Oh my goodness! For a moment, I was too shocked to speak.”

“Perhaps not everyone knows what the attire worn by contestant Lin Shu represents.”

His voice trailed off, completely piquing everyone’s curiosity.

The scene was silent, awaiting the moment of revelation.

But some well-informed audience members had already discovered the trick.

Many audience members who had stopped speaking in confusion now understood.

“This is Central State University attire!”

“It means he is already a Central State University student!”

Passionate shouts echoed throughout the venue.

The moment such explosive news was announced, the stadium immediately erupted into a frenzy.

Gasps of cold air rose and fell, one after another.

Many people were so shocked by this news that they directly jumped up.

Clearly, everyone understood the significance within it.

Especially since Lin Shu was only a First Year student.

He was obviously specially recruited, and those who understood knew how strict the conditions for such special recruitment were.

Even for Third Year students, the number of people entering the five top universities in the entire Bin Province each year was no more than fifty.

This made it even more incredible.

“Hiss, this is too exaggerated!”

“This is going to scare people to death!”

“Oh my God! Am I crazy, or is the world crazy?”

The area exclusive to Canglan No. 2 High School was particularly exaggerated.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock and fright.

Especially those who had a good relationship with Lin Shu, such as Zhao Sheng, Huang Yian, Zhang Qi, Liu Dong, and others.

Upon hearing this news, they all collapsed, overwhelmed with shock.

Everyone was in First Year, but you quietly went to university!

And it’s one of the five most prestigious universities in Daxia!

At this moment, the most uncomfortable were the four members of the opposing Binzhou High School team.

Their originally calm expressions completely crumbled.

They knew Lin Shu on the other side was strong, but they didn't say he was *this* strong!

Their morale immediately scattered, and their faces turned ugly.

Seeing that the atmosphere had spread sufficiently, the host continued to speak.

“Clearly, everyone, like me, feels the same way.”

“This kind of news is enough to shatter one’s worldview.”

“I imagine everyone, like me, is looking forward to the match.”

“Then, without further ado, the finals officially begin!”

In the wide, bright, and massive battle stage, Lin Shu’s expression was normal.

Heiye was quietly standing beside him.

Lin Shu calmly observed the Imperial Beasts of the four opponents.

Although he had sufficient confidence in his own strength, Lin Shu was clearly not an arrogant person.

Dozens of cameras were constantly moving around him.

Today, all the focus of the finals was on Lin Shu...
