50: Set up a competition stage. Tea ceremony.

However, with things as they were, Lin Chuan could only accept reality.

"You cheated!"

Zhao Xing put away his Blade Demon, staring at Lin Chuan with eyes full of fury.

"Oh? This kid still isn't convinced?" Lin Chuan's eyes flickered.

"I cheated? My Beast Companion, from start to finish, didn't even move!"

Lin Chuan said indifferently.

"Exactly! You're a fool for insisting on trying to split a rock with a knife. How is that our Boss Lin Chuan's fault?" The chubby boy shouted loudly.

"Yeah, first time I've seen something like this. Can't handle losing, how embarrassing..."

"Many classmates saw it and even recorded videos. I'd like to hear what kind of trick you claim Lin Chuan pulled..."

...Soon, the students below were in an uproar.

Third High School finally won a round against Second High School, and someone dared to accuse them of cheating!

If an uncle could tolerate it, an aunt could not!

"He... he..." Zhao Xing was momentarily speechless, unable to articulate a reason.

If he said anything more, he would truly be making a fool of himself.

"Boss, stop talking, let's get out of here quickly."

The subordinate behind him stopped recording the video and quickly reminded him.

They had already lost, so what was the point of recording?

However, even if he didn't record, others would naturally record it for them.

"Fine, I'll admit defeat today. You just wait, there are many people stronger than me in Second High School, and they won't let you off."

Zhao Xing walked off the stage, spouting threats.

Lin Chuan immediately rejoiced upon hearing this; this kid was really on the right track.

"Hold on, did you forget something? A prodigy from Second High School wouldn't be without even ten Spirit Stones, would he?"

Lin Chuan said leisurely.

"Alright, here you go." Zhao Xing finished speaking, pulled out a card from his pocket, and threw it onto the stage. "This is a general resource card for the Merchant Guild. It can be exchanged for ten Spirit Stones at any time; you won't be shortchanged."

"Very good, and I won't take it for nothing. I know you're not convinced, and that's fine. I'll give Second High School a chance.

I'll set up an arena here. I'll be the arena master, defending the stage. You can challenge me anytime. Ten Spirit Stones is the entry fee. If you win, you can take these ten and the ten in my hand. If you lose, it goes directly into the prize pool, until someone beats me and takes it all!"

As soon as these words were uttered, everyone was in an uproar.

They originally thought winning one match was enough, but they didn't expect Lin Chuan to be so arrogant!

This wasn't just setting up an arena; this was a direct slap in the face to Second High School!

Then, Lin Chuan didn't forget to add fuel to the fire: "Oh, and First High School can also participate. Since Second High School dares to challenge, there's no reason First High School wouldn't dare to come. Otherwise, wouldn't they be even worse than my Beast Companion? Hahahaha..."

Lin Chuan said this towards Lu Xiaomo's side, where the camera was.

Crazy! Truly crazy!

This was the sentiment of the vast majority of people.

Challenging Second High School wasn't enough; he even mocked First High School as a Turtle!

Subsequently, recalling what Lin Chuan had said earlier: "Restore the glory of Third High School!"

Many students felt a surge of heroic spirit. Regardless, Lin Chuan had already achieved something unprecedented, pioneering a new path.

No matter what, it would leave a significant mark in the history of Third High School and even District 81...

Zhao Xing and his companion had already left dejectedly, but the students of Third High School remained in the training hall, as if awaiting Lin Chuan's instructions.

"Everyone can leave now. Thank you for your support. There will be many battles ahead, so you don't need to come every time. Just follow Momo's videos."

Lin Chuan stepped off the stage, taking the opportunity to promote Lu Xiaomo.

"I have no way to repay everyone's support, except with victory after victory, to encourage you all!"

After speaking, Lin Chuan led the way out of the training hall.

"Good!"

"Good!"

No one knew who started it, but thunderous applause erupted in the hall...

"Lin Chuan."

Du Yong quickly caught up with Lin Chuan, his face unable to hide his joy, yet also containing a hint of worry.

"This is what the principal asked me to give you."

Handing the box to Lin Chuan, Du Yong didn't open it to see what was inside, but he could guess.

"Thanks. Don't look at me with that kind of gaze. Do I look like a fool to you?"

"No."

"Then that's that. Trust me, I'm invincible."

Saying this, Lin Chuan waved his hand and walked directly towards the school gate.

Du Yong looked at Lin Chuan's retreating figure, momentarily speechless...

Inside the training hall, Lu Xiaomo was reviewing the video she had filmed, and the more she watched, the more satisfied she became.

"Hello, Momo."

Ye Yao walked over to greet her.

"Hello, you are...? From Class One."

Lu Xiaomo looked up and saw a beautiful girl standing in front of her.

She had an impression, as Ye Yao's appearance was hard to ignore.

"Just call me Yao Yao. I'm a fan of yours. Your videos are really good!"

Although, she had only watched the one about Lin Chuan.

"Thank you for liking them. Is there something I can help you with?" Lu Xiaomo instinctively felt that the other party wouldn't just talk to her for no reason.

"How did you and Lin Chuan meet? You seem very close!"

Ye Yao asked seemingly casually.

However, this was enough for Lu Xiaomo to guess her intention.

"Oh, that. When Boss Lin Chuan came to challenge Class Two, we met. Then, Boss Lin Chuan asked me to record all of his battles." Lu Xiaomo said casually.

The word "asked" could mean actively invited or passively agreed.

"Is that so?"

Ye Yao felt her fists clenching a bit.

"Mhm!" Lu Xiaomo nodded emphatically. "We even added each other as friends and played games together."

Although, she didn't even know who Lin Chuan was when they played games, and she was utterly crushed.

"Is that right? What game did you play?"

Ye Yao gritted her teeth.

"Beast Companion Glory. I've released many game videos before."

"Really? I'll try it sometime."

"Great! Yao Yao, let's add each other as friends."

"Okay."

"Oh, right, Yao Yao, what about you and Boss Lin Chuan? You're not his girlfriend, are you?"

Lu Xiaomo asked deliberately.

"No, we're neighbors. We live across from each other and often visit each other's homes."

Visiting homes, the kind that breaks down the courtyard walls.

"Is that so? Last time, Boss Lin Chuan wanted me to walk home with him after school, but unfortunately, I had something to do, so I couldn't go. Next time, I could go, and I could even go to your house, Yao Yao."

A killing blow!

Ye Yao was completely stunned, momentarily unsure how to respond.

"Good, good."

At this moment, her mind was filled with the four words "walk home together."

In the art of subtle manipulation, her skill was still far behind.

When she came back to her senses, she realized that Lu Xiaomo had already left at some point, even giving her a sweet goodbye before she went.

However, she had been in a daze at the time and hadn't noticed at all.

"Darn it!"

Ye Yao recalled the entire conversation and realized it was full of traps, and she had fallen for them so easily.

"No, I can't let this continue."

Lin Chuan would definitely leave District 81 to go to university in the future. If she didn't go to university, she would have no chance at all.

Ye Yao couldn't pinpoint what this feeling was, but she didn't want to give up just like that.
