Chapter 48 The Federation is unusually generous this time.
"So this is the classroom for the sprint class!" Gu Ye stood at the entrance of Sprint Class One and walked into the classroom.
Looking around, he saw Chu Ling and the others sitting in their usual spots, so he walked straight over and sat in the empty seat next to them.
As soon as he sat down, Gu Ye asked impatiently:
"Old Chu, is there any news about the Card Domain invasion early this morning?"
"Yes!" Hearing this, Gu Ye was stunned. The Card Domain had only descended a few hours ago; how could there be relevant information so quickly?
"Tell me about it!" Gu Ye raised his eyebrows. He was very interested in this. If the Card Domain's rank were lower, the Domain Suppression Department might let lower-ranked Card Masters explore it, and then they would have a chance.
Chu Ling saw through his thoughts at a glance and shook his head with slight regret: "We don't have a chance."
"You mean we're not worthy?"
"Indeed, we're not. The Card Domain that descended this time is at the Rift level, so we shouldn't even think about touching it."
After hearing the Card Domain's rank, Gu Ye lost interest. They wouldn't even be able to beat a minor monster that leaked out from inside.
"Then we might as well just wait for the Card Domain to disappear."
People continued to walk into the classroom one after another. Yan Shuangling walked in and, under the gaze of others, sat down next to Gu Ye.
Seeing the hostile gazes of the others, Gu Ye immediately felt a headache coming on. Before long, everyone had arrived.
"Ding... ding... ding..." The class bell rang simultaneously, and Mu Xuefei, the head teacher, made a dazzling entrance.
"Everyone, today is the day for the sprint class to distribute resources." Except for Gu Ye, everyone was very excited to hear this news.
Seeing this, Gu Ye tilted his head, leaned closer to Yan Shuangling, and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"
"You'll know in a moment."
Mu Xuefei pressed her hand down, and after the classroom quieted down, she continued: "Because of the special nature of this College Entrance Examination, the Federation has increased the resources provided in the future by five times to encourage you to actively sign up for it."
So that's why these Noble Families children were so excited, but it probably wasn't just that simple.
"When did the Federation become so generous!" As far as Gu Ye knew, the Yanxia Federation was the stingiest among the five major federations, both internally and externally.
"Go to the logistics department to collect them after class."
"Alright, study by yourselves." Having said that, Mu Xuefei walked out of the classroom, and everyone else went back to what they were doing.
The four of them played Landlord for the entire class, waiting eagerly until the class finally ended.
"Let's go..." The four of them looked at each other and got up to collect their resources.
When they arrived at the logistics department, many people were already queuing up. Seeing this, Gu Ye and the others also lined up at the back of the queue.
"Yo, the big academic star is here to collect resources too!" Li Jie hid behind Yang Haochen with a provocative look in his eyes; he had clearly forgotten the pain once the wound had healed.
"Don't cause trouble!" Yang Haochen scolded him angrily. He looked at Gu Ye with wary eyes; he still had vivid memories of Gu Ye's card, Zhang Fei.
"Oh!" Li Jie was very afraid of his cousin, so he chose to shut up, but his eyes were still very unconvinced by Gu Ye. He had obtained new cards and didn't think he could be bullied again.
Gu Ye's gaze fell on Yang Haochen, and his heart sank slightly. This guy's rank had actually already reached Bronze Rank Nine; his advancement speed was truly fast.
His eyes turned cold, and his tone carried a warning: "Don't provoke me, otherwise next time I won't let you off as easily as last time."
A dangerous light emanated from Gu Ye's eyes, as if he would take action immediately if Li Jie dared to provoke him again, making Li Jie suffer the consequences.
"You..."
Li Jie was provoked by his gaze and was about to retort when he was firmly held back by Yang Haochen.
Yang Haochen's face was gloomy; they were here to collect resources, not to cause trouble. But the more Li Jie thought about it, the angrier he got. With his family background, how dare a lowly plebeian with no background treat him like this? And even openly threaten him?
Ignoring Yang Haochen's obstruction, he rushed in front of Gu Ye, pointed at him, and clamored:
"Gu Ye, do you dare to get on the dueling platform?"
"Come back, Li Jie." Yang Haochen scolded him, but Li Jie remained unmoved and said:
"Cousin, today I must teach him a lesson and let him know that Noble Families are not something plebeians like them can provoke." Seeing that Li Jie actually wouldn't listen to him, Yang Haochen's face looked terrible.
"Li Jie, get back, don't be an eyesore here." Yan Shuangling scolded him angrily. At this moment, Li Jie was already furious. Seeing that Yan Shuangling was actually standing up for Gu Ye, he immediately cursed at her:
"Yan Shuangling, right? Who do you think you are? What right do you have to manage my business? If you keep blabbering, I'll beat you up too."
Hearing this, Yan Shuangling's face turned icy. It was the first time she had been scolded like this to her face. When Yang Haochen heard Li Jie's words, his already ugly face became even gloomier. He knew that today's matter wouldn't just end like this; the Li family would likely have to bleed heavily for this.
Seeing this scene, Gu Ye immediately felt that Li Jie was just a mad dog, biting whoever he could get his teeth into.
"Elegant Blade!"
A black shadow suddenly appeared and slashed at Li Jie, who hurriedly summoned the [Fiery Flood Leopard].
But this [Fiery Flood Leopard] was vulnerable before the Elegant Blade.
With a "pfft" sound, the Elegant Blade's Tang dao sliced through the [Fiery Flood Leopard] like cutting tofu, instantly splitting it in half, and the card turned into specks of light and dissipated.
After dealing with the [Fiery Flood Leopard], the Tang dao in the Elegant Blade's hand didn't pause for a second and slashed towards Li Jie again!
Li Jie was so scared that his legs were trembling; he fell to the ground and shouted in panic:
"You can't kill me, my dad is Li Yuangang."
Yan Shuangling sneered: "Even if your dad Li Yuangang came here, I would still kill you."
"Stop!" At the critical moment, Yang Haochen finally took action.
With a flick of his fingertips, a flying sword flickering with spiritual light broke through the air and accurately blocked the Elegant Blade's Tang dao.
With a crisp "clang" sound and sparks flying everywhere, the Elegant Blade was shaken back half a step.
"Miss Yan, I will make the Li family give you an explanation for today's matter." After speaking, Yang Haochen quickly dragged Li Jie away. He hadn't expected things to escalate to this point, and their backs soon disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Everyone disperse!" Ye Suxuan shouted. The onlookers quickly scattered and left. They had been able to see this big drama today, so it was worth the trip.
Seeing that Yan Shuangling's face still looked a bit ugly, Gu Ye couldn't help but ask: "Are you okay!"
Yan Shuangling shook her head, her expression quickly recovering, and she replied: "I was just thinking about what good things I should make the Li family compensate me with. After all, they are one of the four minor Noble Families in Yunlin City."
"Uh~" Gu Ye smiled helplessly and shook his head. He had been worried about Yan Shuangling, but it seemed he had overthought it.
"Let's go, it's our turn to collect resources." Chu Ling, who was queuing in front, shouted.
After collecting the resources and returning to the classroom, Chu Ling explained the uses of the various things inside to Gu Ye one by one.
Gu Ye was greatly surprised. He didn't expect the resources provided by the Federation to be so rich, covering every aspect of a Card Master. There were even [Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures] that could increase a card's star level, and many Noble Families disciples had come specifically for this.
The following day, Gu Ye spent his time very easily, with no more melodramatic trouble coming to his door.
