Chapter 1644: Chapter 1636
However, no matter how beautiful a person is, getting involved with the Corpse King is not so pretty.
Especially since Mu Chen is quite aware of Xin Lin’s quirky personality.
Does she really have the Fu Tian Pill inside her?
Judging by her strength, it doesn’t seem like it, but what was the Ghost Shiva’s previous statement about?
Before attempting to assassinate Xin Lin, Ghost Shiva had sent a secret letter to the Family Head.
Ghost Shiva remained loyal to Fengdong and, knowing this assassination attempt was fraught with danger, left behind this final letter.
The contents of the letter were very discreet; only Mu Chen and the Mu Family Patriarch knew them.
Ghost Shiva believed that Xin Lin had the Fu Tian Pill on her, making her extremely dangerous.
After reading the letter, the Mu Family Patriarch discussed it with Mu Chen but decided to observe the situation first.
Ghost Shiva’s death further proved that Xin Lin held a secret.
But even if Xin Lin truly has the Fu Tian Pill, Fengdong currently doesn’t have the means to seize it.
Besides, Xin Lin is Mu Chen’s student and has a unique relationship with Murong Ziyue, implying she wouldn’t likely pose a threat to Fengdong.
Given this, it might be better to have Mu Chen monitor her every move, ready to act when there’s any noticeable change.
This led to the earlier scene where Mu Chen met Xin Lin.
Facing Mu Chen’s suspicious gaze, Xin Lin seemed indifferent.
Whether Mu Chen suspects her or not, she wouldn’t admit anything regardless.
"What is this about the transfer student you mentioned, Master Mu?"
Xin Lin casually changed the topic.
Some things are better left as unspoken understandings.
"Aside from lacking other skills, your ability to play dumb is top-notch."
Mu Chen murmured.
"Chang Yuchun, a new transfer student from Tuyuan Country, just recently transferred. Like you, he’s a Great Spirit Master and will be part of our Shaking Light Class. Those female students were all waiting for him just now."
Mu Chen mentioned Chang Yuchun with a bit of discomfort.
He used to be the favorite supervisor among the female students in the Shaking Light Class, highly popular.
But since Chang Yuchun arrived, things changed.
Chang Yuchun is charming and notably strong, especially after he defeated Tuoba Liang in a practical class earlier, causing his popularity to soar, seriously threatening Mu Chen’s popularity in the Spirit Institute.
"Defeated Tuoba Liang?"
Xin Lin was somewhat surprised.
She had reprimanded Tuoba Liang before, but hadn’t expected a newcomer to defeat him directly.
"Not just Tuoba Liang, he also battled several students from Star Academy, holding his ground evenly. Additionally, having been here just a few days, he’s completed several academy tasks; last night, he became the new leader of our Spirit Institute."
This meant Xin Lin, who had only recently become the leader, was promptly ousted.
Mu Chen glanced at Xin Lin.
Xin Lin remained indifferent.
She never cared about being a leader or not.
However, tying with students from Star Academy, Chang Yuchun indeed possesses some skills.
"If he’s so formidable, why didn’t he join the Yuheng Class initially?"
Xin Lin puzzled.
Logically, a transfer student should follow the principle of strength in placement.
Moreover, why would other supervisors agree to let such an outstanding student go to Mu Chen’s class?
"I wasn’t around at that time, but reportedly, he specifically requested to join our class."
Mu Chen shrugged.
Qingtian Academy has a rule.
Once the recruitment month is over, collecting students must follow a principle of strength.
If the person’s strength is sufficient, they can directly request to enroll in any class.
