350: Chapter 354 Except for You
Lu Chen was certain.
If things continued like this,
one day,
Soya would get his butt kicked because of him.
"Greetings, Senior."
Shadi replied.
"You can call me Teacher."
Soya immediately interjected.
"Why should he call you Teacher? Isn't he my brother? So he should call you Grandma instead."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen and Shadi's
cheeks both twitched slightly.
Lu Chen said,
"Alright, Soya, let's go inside."
Then Lu Chen and Soya walked into the academy together.
Shadi watched his retreating back thoughtfully.
Her suspicion was not without basis.
Soya was an innocent boy,
belonging to the most powerful wizard Family of humanity.
Naturally,
there were shady people who might send their sons or daughters to get close to her lovely grandson.
So she was extra protective of him.
Lu Chen walked into the Academy of Truth for the first time.
From the outside, nothing could be seen.
Only a massive barrier covering the entire academy was visible.
Only those permitted could enter the academy
and see its true appearance.
The academy's area was vast.
Many buildings and different types of facilities could be seen everywhere.
Soya walked beside him and said,
"I came here once with Grandma when I was little."
Lu Chen looked at him suspiciously.
"When you were little?"
Soya didn't understand the implication,
and nodded seriously.
"The food in the cafeteria is super delicious. Let's go there and grab something to eat first."
Lu Chen said,
"No, we aren't students here yet."
"And you came here as an examinee, not with your grandma."
"So stop thinking about food and focus on the battle. Who knows, a dark horse might appear this time."
"Dark horse? Do you mean a Demonic Beast has snuck in disguised as a human? We should tell Grandma as soon as possible!"
Lu Chen couldn't help but slap his forehead speechlessly.
Soya was indeed outstanding in terms of Spells,
but when it came to daily life, he was like a blank sheet of paper.
It was evident
that he had been overindulged before.
It seems I'll have to properly train this little fatty.
Otherwise,
he'll definitely be swindled by others later.
Soya felt somewhat excited.
A-Yan looked at Lu Chen expectantly.
Lu Chen looked at his expectant gaze
and said directly:
"No. Stop thinking about food for now. Become second place first, and then I'll treat you."
Soya was a bit disappointed at first,
but then instantly became happy.
"You keep your word?"
Lu Chen smiled and said,
"Of course."
Shadi watched this scene from her office with a smile.
This boy was very interesting.
She hadn't called Lasdi yet,
because he was busy with this round, which was the final round of the examination.
After the examination ended,
she would understand everything.
Soon,
Lu Chen and Soya arrived in front of a massive plaza.
This plaza was extremely vast,
at least 1 kilometer in length and width.
At this time, all the examinees had gathered.
Lasdi's figure appeared,
and he immediately spoke.
"First of all, congratulations on being admitted to the academy. Now is the assessment to determine your final rankings."
"Everyone, give it your all. Don't worry about injuries; there are teachers and medical staff nearby."
"So no one will suffer serious harm. Exert yourselves as much as possible—except for you, kid."
He looked at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen's expression immediately became somewhat defiant.
Lasdi snorted coldly.
"Don't give me that look. Who told you to be so powerful at such a young age?"
He was clearly scolding Lu Chen,
but his tone was full of praise.
It was obvious
that he truly liked Lu Chen.
Meanwhile, the other students all looked confused.
"Who is that boy? The Chief Examiner is clearly favoring him. Is such behavior allowed in the academy?"
A handsome little boy immediately raised his hand.
Lasdi looked at him,
allowing him to speak.
"Teacher, you are clearly favoring this boy. Isn't this a violation of the rules?"
Of the 60 students who came here,
except for a few,
none of their backgrounds were ordinary.
So this boy naturally had the courage to question the Chief Examiner.
Lasdi suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.
He had never seen a Genius like Lu Chen before,
so he had gotten a bit carried away.
He coughed once
and said,
"I am doing this for your own good."
"I can tell you that he was actually already admitted to the academy in the first round of assessment."
"He doesn't even need to participate in the second round of assessment."
"However, because he requested it himself, he joined the subsequent assessments."
"He is very powerful. If he truly gave his all, he could easily kill a Second-Tier Demonic Beast."
"Now tell me, am I favoring him?"
Instantly,
everyone's eyes widened.
What the Examiner said was too exaggerated.
"Admitted in the first round? One person can kill a Second-Tier Demonic Beast?"
At this moment, they really felt
that the Examiner was truly too shameless.
To favor him,
he actually cooked up such an outrageous lie.
The boy who asked the question said angrily,
"I don't believe it."
This time, Lasdi's voice turned cold as he said,
"Whether you believe it or not is your own business. Besides, you'll find out soon enough, won't you?"
