84: How dare you call yourself defensive?

"Hello, Lin Chuan. We meet again."

Lei Wanjun said, casually turning off the broadcast on the stage.

"You are?" Lin Chuan looked at the person in front of him, feeling a bit familiar.

"I am Lei Wanjun, the principal of First High School. We met at your house last time."

Lin Chuan thought back, then remembered that last time the Ice Crystal Demon Python had attracted a group of powerful cultivators, and this person was among them.

No wonder the other party was so polite to him; it turned out to be for Qin Yan's Face.

Lin Chuan didn't know that when he stood on the Ice Crystal Demon Python's head, looking down, Qin Yan had threatened all of them.

"Hello, Principal Lei."

"You have already won this battle, and the difference in strength is so great that no one from First High School is your opponent."

The meaning was clear: he conceded, hoping Lin Chuan would stop.

There was no point in continuing the fight.

"So, my purpose for coming here was Lei Dian."

"Lei Dian hasn't returned."

"He's not deliberately avoiding me, is he?"

"How could that be? Lei Dian has already been promoted to Silver Rank, and his Beast Companion…"

"It's just Elite Rank. I've killed many Elite Rank Yao Beasts, so I specifically came to see what the difference is in fighting an Elite Rank Beast Companion."

Lei Wanjun: "…"

From Lin Chuan's tone, Lei Wanjun couldn't detect any hint of a joke, indicating that the other party was speaking the truth.

Good heavens, Elite Rank? Killed many?

Was that how the other party trained? Was he just thrown into the wilderness by Qin Yan and then left to fend for himself?

He had to admit, his guess was spot on!

"Well, Lei Dian won't be back for a while. Why don't you challenge Second High School? The Nan brothers from their school are no weaker than Lei Dian." Lei Wanjun thought of a plan to divert trouble.

However, it was a pity… "I won't challenge Second High School." Lin Chuan shook his head.

"Why?"

Lei Wanjun thought, First High School hadn't provoked Lin Chuan, so why was he so relentless? Wasn't it just some verbal provocation between students?

"Principal Fu of Second High School paid me!"

"Ah???"

Lei Wanjun racked his brain but never imagined this reason, thinking he had offended him somewhere.

So direct?

"May I ask, when was that?" Lei Wanjun swallowed.

"The day before you all came to my house. Originally, they wanted to poach me for Second High School, but later it turned into buying me off so I wouldn't challenge Second High School."

"Hiss." Lei Wanjun felt immense pain.

He hadn't expected Fu Tianchen, that old fox, to be so shrewd and decisive.

Two months ago, Lin Chuan had only just begun to show his talent, right?

If he had known Lin Chuan had this strength, he would have bought insurance no matter what.

"Oh, and if I defeat Lei Dian, there's an additional reward!"

"How much is the reward?" Lei Wanjun suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Third High School gives 1000 Spirit Stones, and Second High School gives 500." Lin Chuan sold out Second High School without even thinking.

"Damn it!"

Lei Wanjun couldn't stand it anymore. It was understandable for Third High School to give Spirit Stone rewards, but why was Second High School joining in the fun?

He finally understood why Lin Chuan was so fixated on Lei Dian; in Lin Chuan's eyes, Lei Dian was a living meat bun!

If he had known such a freak like Lin Chuan would appear, he should have just sent Lei Dian to high school in the inner city. He might have been Silver Rank by now.

As it stood, he could only spend money to avert disaster.

However, 1500 Spirit Stones, just thrown away like that, made Lei Wanjun's heart ache immensely.

As if seeing Lei Wanjun's thoughts, Lin Chuan continued: "I have a suggestion. My Beast Companion will no longer attack. All the students present are free to attack it. If you can make me recall my Beast Companion, I will no longer challenge. Otherwise, even if you directly give me Spirit Stones, I will still challenge Lei Dian."

It was the familiar strategy: no harm in taking advantage. After this time, Lin Chuan would prepare to Breakthrough to Silver Rank.

Lei Wanjun fell silent. Relying on his threats or persuasion to make Lin Chuan give up the reward for challenging Lei Dian was clearly unrealistic.

But, letting all the students present attack together? The thought alone was terrifying!

There were about three thousand people in the hall, from all three grades. What kind of defense could withstand three thousand Beast Companions attacking simultaneously?

Didn't they know the principle of water dripping through stone, or an iron rod being ground into a needle?

Even a hundred Elite Rank Yao Beasts could be hunted down if these three thousand students fought with their lives.

Was the gap really that big?

What if three thousand students couldn't defeat Lin Chuan? Then First High School would lose immense Face.

But if the students didn't go, it would be Lei Dian's Dao Heart that would shatter.

Lei Wanjun found it difficult to decide, looking at Lin Chuan with apprehension: So young, yet so cunning and deep-scheming, putting a Diamond Rank powerhouse like himself on the spot, and he couldn't do anything about him.

Lin Chuan saw Lei Wanjun staring at him, his eyes flickering, and couldn't help but think: "This guy isn't thinking of hitting me, is he?"

Anyway, if anyone dared to act so arrogantly in front of Lin Chuan, he would definitely take action!

"Student Lin Chuan, may I ask what your purpose is in doing this?" Lei Wanjun couldn't help but ask.

Simply stepping on First High School had no meaning; he was already generally recognized as the strongest.

"Naturally, it's to become stronger and to test the results of my Cultivation during this period. After all, I am a defensive type."

"…"

You still have the nerve to say you're a defensive type? Don't you know what happened to the Frost Giant that flew over a hundred meters just now?

Lei Wanjun was too helpless to retort.

"Principal Lei, you are simply worried about the consequences. I can guarantee that no matter what happens to my Beast Companion, I will not pursue it. Furthermore, if three thousand people cannot defeat me, do you really think their Dao Hearts will shatter? No, they will only look up, and keep looking up…"

Lei Wanjun: "…"

He admitted that Lin Chuan made sense. Being unrivaled at the same level, fighting one against ten was normal.

Fighting one against three thousand would make him revered as a god… Thinking of this, Lei Wanjun couldn't help but feel parched.

If it was truly like this, Lin Chuan's future achievements would be immeasurable, perhaps even reaching King-level.

At that time, First High School would be the birthplace of a legend!

"Alright, I can agree to that. However, you need to challenge them yourself, and let them choose whether to act or not." Finally, Lei Wanjun made his decision.

Lin Chuan was waiting for these words.

"Don't worry, Principal Lei."

After giving Lin Chuan a deep look, Lei Wanjun left. He still had to settle accounts with Fu Tianchen.

In any case, for what was to happen next, as principal, he couldn't be present. It was best to treat it as a rash act between students.

"Cough, cough…"

Lin Chuan cleared his throat and activated the broadcast:

"Geniuses of First High School, I am very disappointed. After all this time, not a single person dares to stand opposite me.

But that's right, you cherish your feathers and fear failure.

How about this: my Beast Companion will not move, and you can all attack it together. If any of you can injure it enough for me to recall it, I will not only concede, but I will also present these one thousand Spirit Stones to you with both hands."

Saying this, Lin Chuan threw out a box, which contained the Spirit Stones he had obtained from Qian Feng. The energy fruit was not needed for now, and Lin Chuan hadn't absorbed it yet.
