Chapter 208: 152. Paid substitution_2
"Oh, alright."
After asking a girl next to him to take care of his girlfriend,
Jin Mingyu leapt onto the Martial Stage with a "thump".
His gaze icy, he looked at Lin Zichen and said with a hint of anger,
"Junior, isn't it a bit too much to strike a girl's face with such force?"
He didn't know that his girlfriend had been beaten to that state by Shen Qinghan.
Seeing Lin Zichen standing on the Martial Stage, he subconsciously assumed this New King was the culprit.
Lin Zichen didn't bother to explain, he just said leisurely, "I think it's your girlfriend who's more out of line for bullying the freshmen."
"Don't spout nonsense without evidence."
Jin Mingyu's face darkened.
Truth be told, he didn't want to conflict with Lin Zichen.
Lin Zichen was the strongest new student in school history. Although he had chosen to follow the Pureblood Human Path, as long as he switched majors to Evolution College later, his future would still be bright.
By comparison, he was just a minor member of the student council's disciplinary committee and couldn't hold a candle to Lin Zichen.
Starting a conflict with Lin Zichen now, if he ended up on Lin Zichen's bad side, then life at Shan University would definitely be tough later on.
But he had no choice now, his girlfriend had been beaten to such an extent that he had to stand up for her, even if reluctantly.
"Brother, your girlfriend often bullies freshmen in the ordinary classes. I've seen it plenty of times, how can there be no evidence!"
This voice came from the second-floor corridor.
It was Luo Yongjian from the first-year talented class.
At this moment, he stood calmly on the corridor railing, arms crossed and looking down on the Martial Stage from above.
"You'd better take back what you just said, or I can have you brought before the student council for spreading rumors, to serve as a volunteer at any time," Jin Mingyu said, looking up at Luo Yongjian with a threatening tone.
Luo Yongjian just laughed and retorted, "Threaten me? Truly shameless is invincible in this world! Covering for your own people and being an accomplice to tyranny, do you even deserve to be a disciplinary inspector?"
That hit the nail on the head, leaving Jin Mingyu speechless.
After being rendered speechless, anger ensued.
The New King mocks me, I tolerate.
But who do you think you are?
Just a mere freshman, yet you dare to mock me?
Courting death!
Jin Mingyu's fury reached its peak, and with a thought, he activated his Exotic Beast Gene inside his body, causing dense golden fur to sprout on his skin, ready to deal with Luo Yongjian from his position as a disciplinary inspector.
Just as he was about to jump to the second-floor corridor to lay hands on Luo Yongjian,
Lin Zichen, standing opposite him, didn't want to waste time on the Martial Stage and looked at him saying,
"If you want to seek justice for your girlfriend, then let's have a fight right now. Otherwise, I'm leaving, and I won't have so much time to entangle with you here."
"Fine, you said it!"
Jin Mingyu didn't care about not offending anyone anymore. He just wanted to quickly end the farce and leave. Looking at Lin Zichen, he asked, "How many credits do you want to bet?"
Lin Zichen: "However much you have, I'll bet that much."
Crazy!
This New King is too arrogant!
The crowd below all marveled at Lin Zichen's confidence, never expecting him to dare to bet any amount of credits.
Keep in mind, Jin Mingyu was a member of the student council!
Whose Biological Level had already reached the impressive Seventh Level of the ordinary class!
His strength was extremely formidable!
And Lin Zichen, although talented, had chosen the Pureblood Human Path and hadn't undergone Genetic Fusion, so his strength was probably about the same as when he started school.
Yet even so, he dared to challenge Jin Mingyu on the Martial Stage.
Could it be that his strength from the start of school was already at the Seventh Level of the ordinary class?
Just hidden?
But that was impossible!
Everyone was perplexed.
Jin Mingyu was also bewildered by this.
No matter how he thought about it, Lin Zichen's strength could not possibly reach the Seventh Level of the ordinary class.
The only explanation was that Lin Zichen was very conceited.
Probably never having lost from childhood, always steamrolling his peers, leading to an inflated ego.
Thinking this, Jin Mingyu held up three fingers to Lin Zichen and said expressionlessly,
"I bet 300 credits, Do you have it?"
"I have it."
Lin Zichen said calmly.
Jin Mingyu raised his brows, not expecting Lin Zichen to actually have that many credits.
He was doubtful but didn't dwell on it for long.
Instead, he took out his smartphone, opened the school app, and issued a challenge to Lin Zichen.
The bet was for 300 credits.
When Lin Zichen saw the challenge notification, he responded without hesitation, choosing to fight.
Seeing that he really accepted the fight, Jin Mingyu couldn't help but laugh.
Daring to bet 300 credits.
This New King really thought too highly of himself.
Doomed to suffer a setback.
...
On the second-floor corridor,
Ma Xiwei was shocked to see Lin Zichen accept the challenge, especially with the stakes being as high as 300 credits.
How could he dare?
How could Lin Zichen dare to do so?
Jin Mingyu was no pushover; he was a student from the second-year talented class with a Biological Level reaching the impressive Seventh Level!
Wasn't Lin Zichen being too arrogant?
"Damn, this looks so thrilling, why didn't I think of such a way to show off?"
Luo Yongjian next to him was full of admiration.
He had diligently studied the art of showing off for years, always thinking about how to do it better.
From his image, posture, speaking style, and more, he worked hard to elevate his cool factor.
Having worked on it for so many years, he indeed had some accomplishments.
Now, he has the reputation of 'White-Robed Swordsman' in school, maxing out his cool factor.
However, compared to Lin Zichen's title of the strongest New King in school history, he fell far short, they simply weren't on the same level.
"Sigh, in the end, I'm just not strong enough."
