Chapter 113 - Helplessness
Chapter 113: Helplessness
“???”
“Ye Xuan has killed more people than the number of beasts we have seen?”
“You must be joking?”
Lin Zhibai and the others looked at each other when they heard what Lin Shiru had said.
After that, they turned around. The way they looked at Ye Xuan was different.
This was especially so when they thought of how Ye Xuan had smiled at them distantly earlier.
Their hearts turned stone cold, and the hairs on their neck stood up.
Vicious people were scary.
But what was even more terrifying was the kind of vicious person who smiled while talking to you, and yet you don’t know what he was thinking about.
“As for Ye Xuan’s strength, you can wait until you enter the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm and see for yourself. Now, does anyone have any objections to my arrangements?”
After saying that, Lin Shiru glanced at Lin Zhibai, the yellow-haired youth, and the others from earlier.
Although Lin Zhibai and others still had many questions and had some doubts about Lin Shiru’s words, they did not dare to question anything this time.
Lin Shiru had already shown them great respect by explaining things to them once earlier.
If they questioned her again, it would just be stupidity on their part.
Especially Lin Zhibai.
He did not dare to be rude to his aunt in front of so many people.
He didn’t even have to talk about anything else.
If he dared to be rude to his aunt, his father would beat him to death when he gets home.
“Since no one has any questions, go to the Mini Netherworld Secret Real with Professor Ren.”
Seeing that no one raised any more questions, Lin Shiru turned around and spoke with Professor Ren Ya. Then, she rode away on the Snowy Bladefeather Eagle.
But before leaving, Lin Shiru smiled and nodded at Ye Xuan.
“There is still an hour left before the opening of the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm. It will take about ten minutes for my Iron Walled Chariot to get there. Does anyone of you have any more questions?”
Professor Ren Ya glanced at Ye Xuan and the others and asked after Lin Shiru left.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan and others shook their heads.
“In that case, let’s go now, lest we are late.”
Ren Ya flew onto the Iron Walled Chariot.
“Let’s go.”
Ye Xuan glanced at Lin Zhibai, who was standing beside him.
He did as Ren Ya did and got Lil Wan to bring him with her, and he flew onto the Iron Walled Chariot.
As soon as he landed on the Iron Walled Chariot, Ye Xuan felt a cold aura appearing around him.
He took a deep breath and immediately called up a trace of blood and Qi’s energy to protect his body.
Whoosh, whoosh whoosh!
As Ye Xuan boarded the Iron Walled Chariot, Lin Zhibai and others also followed him, boarding the Iron Walled Chariot one by one.
Whoosh!
After everyone got on the Iron Walled Chariot, Ren Ya didn’t say anything. Instead, she just urged the Iron Walled Chariot into the sky and disappearing into the void.
In a blink of an eye, Jiangzhou University disappeared before everyone’s eyes.
And only then did Ye Xuan begin to look at the Iron Walled Chariot under him carefully.
This Iron Walled Chariot was not particularly big.
But it could carry a dozen people without any problems.
While they were flying, the outside of the chariot shimmered with a blood-colored light, blocking the whistling wind outside.
“It is so fast!”
Ye Xuan thought to himself as he felt the speed the Iron Walled Chariot was moving at.
Lin Shiru’s Snowy Bladefeather Eagle was also swift.
But it paled in comparison when compared with this iron wall chariot.
But this was also normal.
After all, Lin Shiru’s Snowy Bladefeather Eagle was only a platinum-level beast.
There was still a diamond level between the platinum level and the extraordinary level.
In fact, Ye Xuan has always been curious about Lin Shiru’s cultivation.
However, this had always been a question he kept to himself.
He only knew that Lin Shiru had a very high level of cultivation. She had already been at the platinum level when she had led Jiangzhou University to participate in the Hundred Academy League several years ago.
But he did not know her cultivation level now.
She may have broken through to become a Diamond-level Beast tamer.
As for whether she had transcended more levels, he didn’t dare to think about it.
Just like Ren Ya, who was right in front of him.
The Extraordinary level was a level second only to the Challenger level and was really too far away for him.
And just as Ye Xuan was thinking, Ren Ya, standing on the Iron Walled Chariot, also turned to look at Ye Xuan and size him up.
Just now, Lin Shiru had said that Ye Xuan had killed more people than the number of beasts Lin Zhibai and the others had seen up close. This made her curious about Ye Xuan.
Of course, compared to Lin Zhibai and the others, she actually knew that Ye Xuan had contracted two beasts when he was at the apprentice level.
And she also knew that Ye Xuan was the genius that Lin Shiru intended to nurture over the next few years.
…
Howl!
The wind howled.
The group rode on the Iron Walled Chariot for a short while before coming to the front of a huge black mountain.
A strange black mist covered this black mountain.
One could not see through the black mist.
Ye Xuan and the others immediately saw that there were already quite a few people waiting at the foot of the mountain when they arrived.
More people were waiting at the foot of the mountain than in their group.
“Jumu University, Qingyun University, Danxin University…”
Ye Xuan recognized the students from their school uniforms as he swept his eyes over them.
“Elder Sister Ren.”
“Elder Sister Ren, I didn’t expect that you would be leading the team from Jiangzhou University this time.”
When the person-in-charge of the other universities saw Ren Ya’s Iron Walled Chariot approaching, they all went up to greet her.
It could be seen how much they respected Ren Ya.
However, when Ye Xuan saw an older man whose hair was already turning white greet Ren Ya as Elder Sister Ren, he was stunned.
He could vaguely guess that the female teacher who had led them here from Jiangzhou University was already ancient.
Saying that she was still in her double digits was probably an understatement.
It was very likely that she was more than a hundred years old.
It might even be true that she was several hundred years old.
After all, once a beast tamer becomes very powerful, it was effortless to maintain one’s appearance.
“What’s the matter? Are the people from Wanshan University still not here?”
Ren Ya asked a woman from Jumu University after getting off the Iron Walled Chariot.
“Elder Sister Ren, we probably have to wait a while for Wanshan University.”
The woman from Jumu University said.
“Mm.”
Ren Ya nodded and did not say anything.
There was still sometime before the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm was supposed to open.
The people from Wanshan University just had to arrive before then.
Meanwhile, Ye Xuan, Lin Zhibai, and the others all turned to look at the people from the other universities in the waiting crowd.
Once they entered the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm, these people ould become their opponents.
There was a large number of nether-type evolutionary resources in the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
After gathering these evolutionary resources, they would exchange these items for merit points from their schools.
“Are these people from Jiangzhou University? Why do they look so young?”
While Ye Xuan and the others were sizing up the students from the other universities, they also looked at them.
However, they all frowned when they saw Ye Xuan and the others.
They could not help it. Ye Xuan and the others looked too young to them.
Actually, Ye Xuan still looked alright.
The main thing was that Lin Zhibai, the young lad with gold-colored hair, and the others all looked very young.
Meanwhile, Ye Xuan and the others also realized something when they sized up the other universities’ students.
“This…”
But before Ye Xuan could ask anything, the woman from Jumu University who had just spoken to Ren Ya glanced over Ye Xuan and others. She raised her eyebrows and asked, “Elder Sister Ren, are the students you brought here this time from the affiliated high school?”
“Yes, these students I brought, except for the student enrolled because of his talents, are all sophomores from the affiliated high school of Jiangzhou University.”
Ren Ya smiled and nodded, saying, “These young guys are more arrogant than the other. I have brought them here to gain experience.”
“Ah… so that’s why.”
After a moment of stunned silence, the woman from Jumu University could only laugh out loud.
Then she glanced at Ye Xuan and the others. She could not understand what Jiangzhou University was up to this time.
Because no matter whether it was Jumu University, Qingyun Univerisity, or the other universities, they had all chosen students from the Universities who were about to enter their second year to go to the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
In other words, the students they had brought were on average two years older than Ye Xuan and others.
Two years did not seem like much.
But for a beast tamer in the explosive period of growth, it is a huge gap.
“Little kids in their sophomore year?”
Simultaneously, the teachers from several other universities around him were surprised when they heard the words.
They did not know what Jiangzhou University was up to this time.
They had taken the initiative to open the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm but had only chosen to send ten students. In the end, they had sent a group of sophomores. This situation was really puzzling.
However, some people were thinking about it.
Thinking of what Ren Ya had just said, they knew that there was a special student among Lin Zhibai and the others.
However, only beast tamers in the Bronze level or below can enter the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
Under such circumstances, even if he were a Dark Iron level beast tamer, no matter how strong he was, how strong could he get?
Could he bring drag along with nine other burdens and defy all expectations?
“What happened?”
Meanwhile, as the teachers conversed, Lin Zhibai and others, who saw other universities’ situations, were confused.
They knew before coming that students from other universities would participate on this journey to the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
They all thought that the other colleges and universities would also do the same as Jiangzhou University and send out students from the affiliated high school.
Only Ye Xuan was the odd one out.
But now, it seemed that they were the odd ones out.
Of course, strictly speaking, Ye Xuan could also be considered the odd one out.
That was because the other universities had all sent out students who were about to enter their second university year.
But Ye Xuan was only a freshman at Jiangzhou University.
“Dang, Lin Zhibai, your aunt can’t have made a mistake, did she?”
When he thought of that, the youth with gold hair could not help but tug on Lin Zhibai’s shirt.
“Don’t speak nonsense!”
Lin Zhibai was shocked.
He looked around by reflex. He did not even know what he was afraid of.
“Trust me!”
Meanwhile, Ye Xuan smiled bitterly to himself.
He knew that Lin Shiru had arranged this because she wanted him to lead Lin Zhibai and the others to gain experience in the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
Perhaps Lin Shiru had already guessed from the very beginning that he would definitely choose to enter the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.
