60: Lin Chuan's plan

In the blink of an eye, the week was almost over, yet no one else came to challenge Lin Chuan.

Everything seemed to have fallen silent.

This wouldn't do; Lin Chuan had only earned a little over a hundred Spirit Stones, including the Principal's reward and the registration fees from those people.

As for Gu Zhen's reward, Lan Lan had only given him a mere ten.

If Lin Chuan wanted rewards, he still had to challenge the top ten students from First High School himself.

Lin Chuan estimated that if he challenged anyone outside the top ten, they wouldn't accept, and it would also be a waste of time.

Even among the top ten, it wasn't certain anyone would accept.

At first, Lin Chuan's thoughts were a bit too optimistic: so many people, if he challenged them one by one, how many rewards would he get!

In reality, it wasn't like that at all; strictly speaking, he had only fought two proper matches before no one dared to challenge him again.

Theoretically, a person can only challenge the opposing school once a month; any more, and the other party can refuse.

Those names on the list wouldn't just obediently let Lin Chuan farm rewards like NPCs in a game.

Lin Chuan was wondering whether he should just directly challenge Lei Dian, snatch the First High School's number one spot once and for all, and then let them pay to buy it back, with him going easy on them… or sell it to Second High School, hehe… Just as Lin Chuan was making his calculations, he suddenly heard someone ring the doorbell… At the door were a middle-aged man and a young beauty, both dressed very elegantly.

"You? Who are you looking for?"

Lin Chuan, in shorts and slippers, leaned against the door and asked.

"Excuse me, are you student Lin Chuan?"

The man asked.

"I am."

"It's like this, we are teachers from Second High School, my surname is Zhou, and we'd like to discuss something with you," Teacher Zhou said.

"???"

Lin Chuan was just thinking about how to swindle Second High School – no, how to give them a great benefit – when they showed up.

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear, as it were.

"Come in."

The doorway wasn't the place to talk, so Lin Chuan let the two into the house.

Without 'Little Black' serving tea and water, Lin Chuan had lost his interest in drinking tea, let alone pouring tea for others.

Just get to the point.

"Alright, what do you want to talk about?"

The fact that they could directly find his address showed that they had at least put in some effort.

"Then I'll be direct. I represent the Principal of Second High School and would like to invite you to transfer to Second High School."

Teacher Zhou said directly.

Indeed, very direct.

Lin Chuan had long anticipated such a thing, and was even wondering why no one from First High School had come.

He didn't know that First High School, knowing his connection with Qin Yan, had already squashed that idea.

As for Second High School, they were completely out of options.

If they didn't come now, Lin Chuan would definitely go to challenge them.

Of course, it was destined to be a futile effort.

Lin Chuan naturally wouldn't consider changing schools now.

However, Lin Chuan was curious about what conditions Second High School could offer.

"What's your price? You can't just offer empty words, can you?" Lin Chuan said indifferently.

"That's negotiable." Teacher Zhou's Face lit up; the other party not directly refusing was a small step towards victory.

"If student Lin Chuan transfers to Second High School, I will provide you with a one-time subsidy of 500 Spirit Stones and ten bottles of Advanced Comprehension Potion. In addition, you will receive one hundred Spirit Stones, Advanced Comprehension Potion, and a set of Commander-level Demon Beast Materials every month until you get into university."

"What is a Skill Comprehension Potion?"

"Student Lin Chuan hasn't used it?" Teacher Zhou asked in surprise.

Logically speaking, with Lin Chuan's formidable strength, he definitely wouldn't lack the aid of potions.

The outside world speculated that Lin Chuan's various attribute resistance skill Ranks were definitely not low, and must have been accumulated through potions.

Other than that, it could only be his talent.

Someone secretly investigated and found that Lin Chuan's talent was only B-Rank [Accelerated Growth].

"If the Comprehension Potion is taken with appropriate Yao Beast Materials, there's a chance for the beast to comprehend new skills. Even if comprehension fails, it can still increase the proficiency of existing skills, or even raise their Rank."

Lin Chuan understood; wasn't this just a weakened combined version of the skill fruit and the enhancement fruit?

The outside world's guess was right, but not entirely.

It must be said that Second High School's offer was quite generous; such resources were enough for them to cultivate several B-Rank nine-star students.

It was just buying insurance, which was to keep the second-place student in District 81 at Second High School.

After all, Lin Chuan hadn't yet fought the 'Ice and Fire Brothers,' so everything was still unknown.

For this unknown, Second High School had the courage to pay such a high price.

"I appreciate your sincerity, but I will not leave Third High School."

Lin Chuan considered for a few seconds before answering, giving them Face.

"Student Lin Chuan, don't be in a hurry to refuse. If you have any other conditions, feel free to mention them."

Teacher Zhou wasn't in a rush either and spoke slowly.

"I'm serious. Moreover, if I defeat your school's number one, the school will directly reward me with five hundred Spirit Stones. Of course, that's not the main reason."

Lin Chuan said with a smile.

"What? Defeat number one, five hundred?"

Teacher Zhou was clearly a little flustered; wasn't he here precisely to avoid this possibility?

"How about this: you directly give me five hundred, and I'll temporarily not challenge Nan Jingwu, how about that?"

The dagger was revealed; Lin Chuan laid his cards on the table.

"This..."

Teacher Zhou had absolutely not expected such a situation before coming.

"I need to consult the Principal."

Saying that, Teacher Zhou went out to make a phone call.

After a short while, Teacher Zhou came back in, his phone still connected, but on speakerphone, placed on the coffee table in the middle.

"Um, student Lin Chuan, our Principal would like to talk to you."

"Okay."

Lin Chuan was idle anyway, and he felt that the other party would most likely not agree. Otherwise, the esteemed Second High School would be too spineless.

"Hello, Lin Chuan, I am the Principal of Second High School, Fu Tianchen."

A steady voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello."

"I know your demand. I have to say, it's very arrogant."

There was no anger in Fu Tianchen's tone; instead, he was quite appreciative.

The other party continued, "It seems you are fully confident in dealing with Jingwen and Jingwu?"

"If Principal Fu wants to know, we can verify it next Monday. Speaking of which, I haven't actively challenged anyone yet. Out of courtesy, I should challenge someone too."

Lin Chuan said with a smile, as if he didn't put the other party's status as Principal in his eyes.

By the way, he hadn't added any ice resistance yet. But it didn't matter, he still had enough enhancement fruit.

The other party was silent for a moment, then said, "Even if you don't challenge, won't the outside world know that you are already capable of overpowering Second High School?"

Then, as if with a wry smile, he sighed, "I don't know where such a monstrous kid like you popped out from, and you're all defense. If you were all attack attributes, wouldn't you truly be invincible among peers?"

"I'd like to ask, what price did Principal Lan set for Lei Dian of First High School?"

At these words, Teacher Zhou and the female teacher's expressions instantly turned horrified.

Could it be that he really intended to challenge Lei Dian?

"Lei Dian? He's worth 1000."

Lin Chuan saw no need to hide it and said lightly.
