91: Chapter 91 Chen Qi, you dare to seduce my sister-in-law? Then you've got a death sentence to live for.

Seeing Yun Zhuo approach, Luo Sen suddenly shifted sideways, blocking his path.

"How are you here, kid?"

"Yo, isn't this our kind-hearted and wealthy... what's-your-name?"

Luo Sen rolled his eyes. "I'm asking you, why are you here?"

"I live here now, where else would I be?"

"You... did you really move in with Teacher Su and the others?"

"Obviously. But you were right about one thing: the concentration of Corrosion Energy here is indeed several times higher than at Listening Wind Tower. Look, I just moved in with Teacher Su, and I've already leveled up."

"You, don't get cocky, kid. Do you have any idea that disaster is imminent?"

"Is that so?"

Just as Luo Sen was about to speak, Du Biao suddenly interrupted him. "Haven't you heard that a beautiful woman is a curse? Let me tell you the truth, everyone who gets targeted by that person never ends up well."

"Who?"

"Want to know? Why should we tell you?"

"Pfft." Yun Zhuo sneered. "As if I care to know."

Saying this, Yun Zhuo started to walk away.

"Wait a second, what we just said is true. Even if you don't care about yourself, don't you care about Teacher Su and the others? You simply cannot afford to offend that person."

"If that's the case, then what good does it do for me to know?"

Luo Sen and Du Biao were taken aback, then Luo Sen immediately said, "If you know, at least you can guard against him, so you won't die without even knowing how you died."

Du Biao added, "As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle. Even if you can't be his match, can't you just avoid him?"

Yun Zhuo thought for a moment. "What do you want?"

Luo Sen smiled. "Haven't you heard of paying for knowledge? Besides, this information concerns your life and safety. We'll charge you five thousand academic credits each; that's not too much, right?"

"Not too much, not too much at all."

Luo Sen and Du Biao were secretly pleased. This kid looked quite sharp, but they didn't expect him to be such a coward, getting scared by a simple bluff.

"Since that's the case, hurry up and transfer the academic credits so we can sell you the information."

"What are you thinking? Did I say I wanted to buy it?"

"But you just said the price wasn't too much."

"Yeah, but what does that have to do with whether I buy it or not?"

"You... are you really not afraid of death, kid?"

"Chen Qi is here?"

"How did you know?" Luo Sen and Du Biao were stunned.

Yun Zhuo smiled. "I was just saying it randomly, but looking at you two now, it seems that guy really is here."

"You... you actually dared to bluff me?" Du Biao said indignantly.

"Why don't you say you're stupid yourself?"

"Damn it, I'm going to duel you!"

"No time."

"You damn..."

"Alright, you two go find somewhere cool to hang out. Don't delay me from going to check out the legs... I mean, familiarizing myself with the campus environment."

"Coward!"

Yun Zhuo stopped in his tracks, suddenly thinking of an idea to earn academic credits.

"Say that again."

Du Biao and Luo Sen exchanged a look. Sure enough, kids from grassroots backgrounds all have sky-high pride and can't handle being provoked. With a little goading, he took the bait.

So they said in unison, "Coward!"

"Want a duel, right? Fine, but a duel like this is meaningless. Why not add a wager?"

"Sure."

"I don't want too much, I'm afraid you can't afford it. Just twenty thousand academic credits each." Yun Zhuo held up two fingers, making a peace sign.

Then he asked, "You two aren't planning on coming at me together, right?"

"Heh." Du Biao sneered. "Don't worry, we aren't that shameless."

"Since you proposed the duel, according to school rules, I get to set the time."

"You aren't planning on setting it a hundred years from now, are you?"

"No need, we'll start after the freshman assessment tournament ends."

"That's what you said."

"Let's go, let's go register at the Conflict Mediation Department so you don't back out later."

"You just arrived on your first day, yet you know quite a bit."

The three of them arrived at the school's Conflict Mediation Department. Upon hearing they were there to register for a duel, the teacher was dumbfounded.

A newly arrived freshman actually wanted to register for a duel against two sophomores? This kid must be crazy!

The teacher cleared his throat. "This new student, although the school arena prohibits taking lives, sometimes weapons have no eyes, and it happens that people get killed. Do you know that?"

Yun Zhuo nodded. "I know."

"If you know, why did you agree to duel them? Do you know what level they are now?"

"Should be over level forty, right?" Both were level forty-five; Yun Zhuo could see it clearly using Breaking Delusion and Seeing Truth.

"Then what level are you?" The teacher said, frustrated that the student wouldn't improve.

"Around twenty."

"Then aren't you just courting death? Becoming a student at Imperial Capital University is something many people dream of. You finally got this opportunity, kid, you should cherish it. Also, your parents raised you this big hoping that after you graduate, you would return to bring honor to your ancestors, not to come here and die. Do you know that?"

"Teacher, isn't there still over a month until the duel? It's not certain who will die by then."

At this moment, Luo Sen cleared his throat on the side. "Teacher Wu, you've said everything that needs to be said. Hurry up and register us."

Du Biao sneered. "He's not your son, why are you so concerned about him?"

Teacher Wu was also from a grassroots background. Seeing Yun Zhuo, who was also from a grassroots background, he couldn't help but say a few extra words.

Now, with a young master from the Luo Family and a young master from the Du Family, he was just a small administrator; he couldn't afford to offend either of them.

When these students were happy, they called him Teacher, but when they were unhappy, calling him by his full name was common.

As soon as Luo Sen and Du Biao spoke, he had to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He took one last look at Yun Zhuo; it's hard to save a person who is determined to die.

They came out of the mediation department.

Luo Sen looked at Yun Zhuo with a smile. "You don't seem to have twenty thousand academic credits yet, do you, kid?"

Yun Zhuo smiled. "The academic credits in your pockets right now, added together, don't seem to be as many as mine, right?"

"You, just keep being arrogant, kid. Once we get on the arena, if I don't beat you to death, I'll take your last name!"

"Same to you, same to you."

"Hmph!" Luo Sen and Du Biao left in a huff.

Yun Zhuo glanced at the navigation on his wristband and continued toward the Remote Department.

The school was huge, and the Remote Department was very far away. Without Teacher Su to give him a ride, Yun Zhuo had to squeeze onto the bus.

After getting off near the Remote Department, Yun Zhuo finally understood firsthand why the school had bus stops.

The ride took over forty minutes; if he had relied on his two legs, it would have been not only exhausting but also time-consuming.

Just as he arrived in front of the office building of the Remote Department, he saw Big Teacher Su from afar, and at the same time, he also saw Chen Qi.

How is that guy still level thirty?

He swindled so much money from Chen Kun at once, yet he didn't even level up once. Did he spend it all on buying a War Princess?

Oh right, he doesn't seem to have a War Princess. Otherwise, he would have made a move back in Dawn City and wouldn't have waited until now.

But according to Ling Lifeng, isn't he the imperial grandson of the Chen Family? And his talent isn't bad either.

Logically speaking, what could he possibly lack? Why is he living more miserably than Teacher Su?

Or perhaps he suffered some trauma when he was young, leading him to be overly rebellious, with his main goal being to oppose his family in everything?

On this side, Big Teacher Su had just finished the lesson preparation meeting. As she came out, she bumped into Chen Qi, who was waiting at the door.

"Teacher Su, my name is Chen Qi, nice to meet you."

Big Teacher Su glanced at his outstretched hand and just nodded. "Do you need something?"

Chen Qi smiled. "Teacher Su, actually we probably met when we were young."

Teacher Su shook her head. "Sorry, I can't recall."

"As long as you have attended the annual Twelve Families gathering, then we should have met."

Teacher Su nodded. "Is there something you need?"

"Yes, something very important. Let's talk as we walk."
