Chapter 214: 155, When you’re out in the world, you need a strong background.
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“Huang Jiarui is here!”
“And he brought two people with him. This newcomer king, Lin Zichen, is in trouble now.”
“They are all from the student council’s external relations department.”
When three burly youths appeared in front of the teaching building, a buzz of discussions immediately broke out among the crowd.
Huang Jiamin, sitting on the green belt, saw that it was her brother, Huang Jiarui, and that he had brought backup, and the panic on her face immediately lessened by a great deal.
With the corners of her eyes reddening, she looked towards Huang Jiarui and called out with a voice full of grievance:
“Brother, I clearly didn’t provoke him, but he came at me without a word, wanting to hit me. He’s bullying me too much!”
The “he” she referred to was Lin Zichen.
Upon hearing his sister’s words, Huang Jiarui’s brows furrowed slightly.
Then, looking towards Lin Zichen in front of him, he spoke with a hint of dissatisfaction, “Lin Zichen, aren’t you being a bit too arrogant? Do you really think you’re invincible, that no one can deal with you?”
One of the helpers said, “Lin Zichen, there’s a new king every year, but someone as arrogant as you is a first. You’ve offended too many people. Be careful when walking at night; you might get beaten up.”
The other helper also spoke up, “We won’t take today’s incident too seriously, but if there’s a next time, don’t blame us for not showing mercy.”
The words of all three contained an obvious threat, but their tone was still relatively calm and not overly confrontational.
Only because Lin Zichen was the strongest newcomer in the school’s history, with a promising future, were they not physically assaulting him right away—which they would have done to an ordinary person, without wasting so many words.
“Why are those from the student council talking so reasonably?”
“They bully the weak and fear the strong, afraid to offend the most powerful new king in school’s history. They worry about him seeking revenge after he grows more powerful.”
“Looks like a fight’s not going to break out. Boring.”
The onlooking crowd whispered amongst themselves, and their interest in the spectacle waned significantly, all believing that a fight was no longer likely.
Caught in the middle, Shen Qinghan also felt that a fight wouldn’t break out.
After hesitating for a moment, she no longer headed towards Huang Jiamin and chose to return to Lin Zichen’s side instead.
Just when everyone thought that this farce was about to end,
Lin Zichen, watching Shen Qinghan walk back, calmly said something shocking:
“Han Han, go.”
“Go?”
Shen Qinghan was taken aback for a moment.
But quickly, seeing Lin Zichen’s composed expression, she responded concisely:
“Okay.”
Immediately after, she turned and charged towards the greenery where Huang Jiamin was, ready to strike.
Seeing this, Huang Jiamin panicked completely and ran towards her brother, Huang Jiarui.
She had heard about how Shen Qinghan had instantly taken down Ziqi.
Ziqi’s Biological Level was Common Tier Five, while hers was only Fourth Order. Facing Shen Qinghan, she was sure to end up with a swollen face and had no choice but to run.
Unfortunately, she had just run out of the green belt when she suddenly felt a chaos in her Qi-Blood, her limbs weakened, her head started spinning, and she collapsed on the ground with a “thud.”
“Brother!”
Huang Jiamin summoned all her strength, using her nearly numb throat to shout towards Huang Jiarui in front.
Hearing his sister’s cry for help, Huang Jiarui’s eyes immediately turned cold.
Instantly, he forcefully propelled himself with his calves, becoming a blurred shadow charging towards Shen Qinghan, who was about to lay hands on his sister.
Just as Huang Jiarui dashed out,
On the other side,
Lin Zichen’s thoughts moved, instantly unleashing a terrifying biological pressure comparable to that of an Advanced-level Creature.
Despite the distance of over twenty meters, he precisely targeted Huang Jiarui.
The next second!
Huang Jiarui, who was sprinting at high speed, suddenly felt a tremendous pressure descend upon him from above.
Then, a loud “bang” echoed.
Before Huang Jiarui could grasp what was happening, his whole body smashed heavily into the ground!
Face-first into the ground!
Cracks spread out like a spiderweb, startling and stark!
At the same time,
Up ahead,
Shen Qinghan had already reached Huang Jiamin and swung her leg towards her face in a sweeping kick.
Then, another “bang” sounded.
Huang Jiamin was swept off her feet and onto the ground, her left cheek swelling visibly at a rapid pace, turning into a pig’s head.
But the injury wasn’t severe; it was just swelling, without any concussion.
Shen Qinghan was still too kind-hearted, merely aiming to discipline a little, without the intention to harm.
“What’s going on?”
“Is it over?”
“What just happened?”
In a matter of seconds, the Huang siblings, who had seemed to have the upper hand on the scene, suddenly hit the ground and couldn’t get up.
The brother was facedown on the ground; the sister was lying on her back.
The change in the situation was so swift that the onlookers at the scene were stunned, unable to comprehend what had just occurred.
“A-Rui, what happened to you?!”
The two helpers of Huang Jiarui were the first to come to their senses, rushing to check on him immediately.
Seeing their friend being suppressed by an invisible force on the ground, unable to move, expressions of confusion and a hint of panic that prevented them from acting rashly appeared on their faces.
Because they realized that the invisible force suppressing Huang Jiarui was biological pressure.
And it was the pressure of an Advanced-level Creature.
What does this mean?
It means that a high-level fighter stepped in, someone is helping Lin Zichen!
No wonder he was so bold!
No wonder he was so fearless!
Turns out he’s got someone backing him up!
Thinking of this, both of their hearts chilled, while they also felt fortunate that they hadn’t made a move against Lin Zichen right away and avoided offending him.
Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
While the two of them were imagining all this.
On the other side.
Lin Zichen, accompanied by the client, stopped by Huang Jiamin’s side, looked down at her lying on the ground in a sorry state, and asked:
“I heard from the client that you took a lot of her clothes and bags?”
“Yes, I’m sorry, I’ll go back and return them to her now.”
Huang Jiamin held her swollen left cheek tightly with both hands, her voice trembling as she apologized.
Seeing her so sensible, Lin Zichen decided not to make it harder for her.
He turned to look at the client and said:
“Problem solved. If she dares to bully you again, you can find me anytime to take action, and I’ll give you a 20% discount.”
“Mm, thank you, Brother Chen.”
The client thanked him with these words.
Then, acting very considerately, she took out her phone and transferred 11 credits to Lin Zichen.
Lin Zichen glanced at the received credits, not paying too much attention to it.
He put away his phone, turned toward the onlooking crowd, and announced loudly:
“To all the sophomores out there!”
“If you need a substitute fighter, feel free to seek me out, we can discuss the price!”
“As long as the target is a student in the school, I can take action!”
With that, he walked over to Li Chuxin’s side, stopped, and introduced her to the crowd:
“This lovely beauty here is my agent, Li Chuxin!”
“Everyone can add her WeChat, and if you need me to step in, please contact her!”
He advertised himself in such a high-profile manner.
Feeling that there wasn’t much left to do.
Lin Zichen left the scene with Shen Qinghan, leaving Li Chuxin to add the WeChat of potential clients.
As for the client, Hu Yingli.
Now that the task was complete, there was no need to concern himself with her anymore.
…
Evening.
Student Council President’s office.
Huang Jiarui and the others told Zhou Xuehong about the strange incident they encountered that day, as well as their suspicions, in great detail.
They shared how they were suppressed by an unknown advanced-level fighter’s biological pressure and suspected that Lin Zichen had someone behind him.
After hearing this, Zhou Xuehong fell into thought.
He thought Huang Jiarui’s guess was reasonable.
Lin Zichen had the guts to be so audacious probably because he had someone’s support.
Then the question arose, who was behind him?
Could it be Principal Yuan?
After pondering for a moment, Zhou Xuehong couldn’t help but think of Yuan Dongzhi.
The day Lin Zichen had announced his substitute fighting service, the school lifted the challenge frequency limit the very next day.
This didn’t seem like a coincidence to him.
It seemed more like coordination.
So… what could be the relationship between Lin Zichen and Principal Yuan?
Zhou Xuehong was puzzled and couldn’t figure it out.
After a while, he couldn’t come up with a reason and finally told Huang Jiarui and the others, “Everyone should try to avoid Lin Zichen for the time being, stay observant, and see what the situation is.”
“If you accidentally come into conflict with him, you can verbally warn him to see how he reacts.”
“In any case, try to avoid getting into a fight with him.”
…
At the same time.
Administrative Building.
Principal’s office.
Ma Zhenhe reported Lin Zichen’s recent activities to Yuan Dongzhi, probing:
“Principal Yuan, Lin Zichen has started some sort of substitute fighting service, causing chaos in the inner school district. Was this your intention?”
“No.”
Yuan Dongzhi denied it.
After saying that, she took a sip of warm tea, her voice cool as she continued, “But to be honest, I quite like what Lin Zichen is doing. Students have been suppressed by the Student Council for too long, the hierarchy has become too rigid, which is not conducive to the long-term development of the school. I think it’s time to break this pattern.”
…
PS: There is one more update coming, probably around three o’clock.
