80: Opening champagne at Central No. 1 Middle School

Lin Shu’s calm words slowly came out.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock, and they all stopped what they were doing.

It was as if a giant rock had been thrown into a calm lake, shocking the entire venue.

Everyone was silent for a long time, as if they had been subjected to a petrification spell.

Immediately, there was a deep gasp of cold air, and their eyeballs protruded slightly, clearly frightened.

If Lin Shu’s previous words about successfully evolving his summoned beast were barely acceptable,

then this statement about reaching level 30 directly shattered their understanding.

Gu Zhenbang’s action of drinking water stiffened, and his thermos cup fell to the ground with a clang, hot boiling water spilling everywhere, steaming.

Some even splashed onto his pant legs, but he was oblivious, still immersed in the words he had just heard.

Seeing that everyone seemed incredulous, Lin Shu didn’t say more.

He directly released Night and Earth Splendor from his summoned beast space.

Everyone’s attention was also drawn to the completely new Night.

Gu Zhenbang subconsciously sensed its level, then froze, and his jaw dropped even further.

It was indeed level 30; Lin Shu was right.

Such an improvement was unheard of even for him.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly said,

“Lin Shu is right.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone understood that this was real, not a dream!

Instantly, the scene erupted, and everyone discussed the matter animatedly.

Lei Wu and Li Shuheng were the most excited. After all, with the original strength of the school team, entering the top eight was easy, let alone the top four.

If it weren’t for the accident, they wouldn’t have been so frustrated these past few days.

They all cheered loudly.

“It’s stable, it’s stable!”

“Awesome! Lin Shu!”

“What a monstrous speed of improvement.”

“The competition the day after tomorrow is saved!”

Except for Chen Yujia and Lan Mengzhu, who remained silent due to worry, everyone else praised Lin Shu, their faces filled with excitement.

Lin Shu’s words had awakened everyone.

Everyone looked at Night’s cool and majestic physique, full of praise.

“He’s so handsome!”

“What evolution form is this? I haven’t heard of it.”

“Why do you care about that? Is that something you can inquire about?”

Naturally, Lin Shu just pretended not to hear; it was better not to say too much about these things.

Now the atmosphere in the venue was finally much more relaxed, returning to the lively chatter from before.

It seemed everyone was still bothered by not being able to participate in the upcoming matches.

“Very good, our predicament is resolved. We still have the ability to move forward.”

“I will now submit the roster and finalize the lineup.”

“Since Lin Shu and Gao Feng are new additions, we will practice and coordinate more over these two days.”

“Let’s strive to perfectly integrate our lineup.”

Seeing this, Gu Zhenbang immediately spoke to confirm the matter.

He then filled out the roster for the next round on his phone.

This also resolved the urgent situation of the past few days.

“Understood, Teacher.” * 3

The three immediately responded.

Gao Feng looked at the spirited Lin Shu next to him, feeling a lot of emotions.

Who would have thought that the junior he had welcomed last time had now become his teammate?

Although he knew this day wouldn’t be too far off, he didn’t expect the speed to exceed his imagination.

Lin Shu suddenly remembered that he didn’t know who their next opponent was, so he asked,

“Which high school is our opponent in the next round?”

Gu Zhenbang laughed heartily.

“Your old friend, Central No. 1 High School.”

“You two really have some kind of fate.”

Everyone else also laughed, clearly aware of the situation between Lin Shu and their school.

“This… that’s quite good.”

Lin Shu was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

It must be a special kind of fate to encounter such an arrangement.

Immediately, Gu Zhenbang gathered the four together and began to formulate tactical assignments.

There wasn’t much time left, so this had to be done quickly… On the other side, inside First Year Class 1 of Central No. 1 High School.

It was currently break time, and students were chatting and playing around.

Bai Sheng sat alone in the front row, reviewing materials, while his Blue Thunder Pattern Bear was sound asleep at his feet.

It let out snores like muffled thunder.

Suddenly, a classmate raised his phone and shouted,

“Everyone, look!”

“Canglan No. 2 High School’s participant roster has been announced.”

“You’ll never guess who joined!”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s interest waned.

After all, everyone already knew that the summoned beasts of Canglan No. 2 High School’s two official members were severely injured.

Even if they found two substitutes to participate, their strength absolutely couldn’t be guaranteed.

So, they would most likely fall in this round.

“What’s there to see?”

“Yeah, I think they just sent two random people to make up the numbers.”

“They’ll be crushed the day after tomorrow, no need to even watch this match.”

That person just shook his head and then said,

“I know what you’re saying is reasonable.”

“They actually let Lin Shu participate. I really don’t know what their school team members are thinking.”

“It looks like they’re desperately grasping at straws.”

He showed a helpless expression.

As soon as these words came out, they attracted the attention of most classmates.

Immediately, a wave of laughter erupted.

“Hahahahaha!”

“Although Lin Shu is very strong, I admit that.”

“But to interfere with a competition for First Year students now? Won’t he be utterly defeated?!”

“I’m looking forward to it! With this, I have to watch this match!”

“Count me in!”

Clearly, Lin Shu’s actions of successively eliminating Central No. 1 High School students in the Chu Niao Cup had caused dissatisfaction among them.

At this time, being able to see Lin Shu make a fool of himself naturally made them extremely happy.

Bai Sheng naturally also heard everyone’s discussion.

He was also full of doubts. How could they let Lin Shu participate?

Are you really out of people at Canglan No. 2 High School?

Although he had already known a few days ago that Lin Shu’s Night had evolved,

the average level of Central No. 1 High School’s team was around level 34.

And this was already a relatively weaker team this year.

With a level difference of about ten levels, what was there to fight?

Although Bai Sheng was confident in Lin Shu’s strength, the gap was still a bit too large.

He hoped he wouldn’t lose too badly then, otherwise Lin Shu would have a hard time.

He picked up his phone and started sending messages to Lin Shu, asking about the specific situation.

The First Year Class 1 students next to him had already started celebrating.

In their subconscious, with such a roster, Central No. 1 High School had already entered the top eight.

They proudly expressed that their luck in the draw this time was really good.

Bai Sheng quickly received a reply from Lin Shu. The content was very simple, just one sentence plus an emoji.

“Just watch, the day after tomorrow.”

Following it was a “hehe” emoji.

He didn’t explain anything, but played the role of a riddle-maker.

This left Bai Sheng completely puzzled. There was no trace of worry or fear in his words.

He knew Lin Shu well; he would never do anything without confidence.

At this moment, he also started to look forward to it, wondering what kind of commotion Lin Shu would stir up in the team competition the day after tomorrow…

“What kind of commotion will Lin Shu stir up in the team competition the day after tomorrow…”
